Something was not right, for me, when scrolling in browsers and play store. It was laggy as hell. In other apps like facebook, tidal, instagram, youtube it was fluid and fast. But not on browsers. Tried all, chrome, opera, firefox, bromite, but all was stuttering like crazy. Play store also. I tought there are few rougue apps, twilight theme, fluid nav gestures and smart files manager, but I was so wrong. I also blamed the LG UI skin, but again was so wrong! So how did I resolved?
Guide - possible for any LG out there:
1. Remove SIM
2. Factory reset your phone in the way that doesn't require Internet to go through activating the phone. If you cant do this, it will fail. You should NOT put the email account. (I did reset from phone settings, not by keys. Also remove phone security such as pin, password, face id etc for this to work - just select unlocking the phone by sliding up)
3. DO NOT connect to internet, do not insert SIM.
4. Settings - apps - show system apps also.
5. Disable, remove permissions, set modify system setting to NO and draw over other apps to NO for all korean bloatware (screenshots attached) and for Google play services, google play store, google, and google service framework.
You must do this for each app. Example in screenshots.
6. Connect to wifi. Do not put your email in play store or gmail. Not yet.
7. As soon as connected slide down the notifications pannel. A pop up will apear after few seconds with Google trying to update some libraryes!!! Hit CANCEL!!!
8. Restart and connect with your email on Play Store. Disable asap app updates.
9. Your contacts won't sync now. Don't worry, its normal, you just removed some permissions.
10. Update and install all your apps from play store.
11. Re-enable that 4 google apps, give permissions to all for contacts, phone, wifi etc, enable also draw over other apps and modify system settings for these apps.
12. Insert SIM.
Enjoy! Hope it works for you all, V40, 30, G8, G7 etc

Hi there. I would like to switch the Google Account on my LG G3, but I am facing some issues when I do that.
Firstly, the GA I used to setup the phone in the store will show all default stock and Verizon apps under Play Store->My Apps. It will also allow me to "Update All" and have the apps set to Auto-Update.
I went and did a factory reset, having made a new GA account on my laptop to use. I input the new GA on the initial setup, but here is where the issue is....under Play Store->My Apps it doesn't show a single app, stock Android apps or Verizon apps. I am unable to "Update All" or even set them to auto-update, though I do have "Update over wifi only" set and I am on wifi.
Browsing for one of the stock apps, like Google Chrome, will allow me to manual update and then it will show in "Installed/All" apps. With the new GA, I am also unable to update the Google Play services.
Doing another factory reset and putting in my old GA will act normally. I can see every single app, stock Android and Verizon. I can update them all, including Google Play services.
Is there any way to get my new Google Account to allow me to do the things I do with my former one?
I've had this issue since the 2nd or 3rd dp. Google play services would force close out of nowhere. Then i would go into settings and see that my account backup is not enabled. It's grayed out and I can't pick the google account. The only way to get it back to show up is when I clear the cache and data of google play services and reboot the phone. However it would start crashing again and I would have to pair my watch again (moto 360 and lg g watch r). So yesterday I tried to figure out the culprit and it was google fit. When I uninstalled it everything is fine and when I reinstalled it all hell break loose. I was just wondering if anyone else having this issue?

I don't use google fit but check https://www.apkmirror.com/ for newest versions of each, google play services and fit. both have been updated yesterday.
make sure to pick the right version for your phone.

I did try it and it still crashes
I had the same problem with Fit on my pixel. Here's what Google support sent me...
I recommend trying these basic troubleshooting steps:
Connect to a strong internet connection to access and download from the Play Store:
Try switching your internet connection to another Wi-Fi/cellular network. Also try accessing your network from a different location. Check if your signal strength improves and if you can browse web sites.
Force your device to check in to Google servers to gain full access to the Play Store:
Go to Phone > Dialpad (10 dot icon) and dial *#*#CHECKIN#*#* (*#*#2432546#*#*). Do not start the call. The numbers you entered should disappear.
Within 2 minutes, you should receive a "checkin successful" notification.
If this doesn't work, you can also force a check in by manually changing the date and time:
Go to Settings > Date & time.
If you see any of the following menu items, turn them off:
Automatic date & time
Automatic time zone
Tap Set date and Set time and manually change the date and time so they're incorrect.
Tap Home (the circle at the bottom of your screen) and repeat steps 1-2.
Turn Automatic date & time and Automatic time zone back on.
Reboot your device:
Press and hold the power button and tap “Power off” when it appears.
Once the phone powers off, press and hold the power button until the device powers on.
If the issue persists, remove and re-add your Google account:
Note: This may delete settings and un-synced in-app content. However, your purchases and synced data (Gmail, Google contacts, etc.) are tied to your account and will be available after re-adding your account. Make sure you remember your account password because you'll need to log back in after re-adding your account.
Remove your account:
Go to Settings > Accounts > Google and tap the name of the account you wish to remove.
Tap More (three vertical dots) and Remove account. Tap Remove account again to confirm account removal.
Add your account back to your device:
Go to Settings > Accounts > Add Account.
Select Google and enter your account information.
If the issue persists, clear the cache and data of the Play Store app:
Navigate to Settings > Apps > Google Play Store > Storage.
Tap Clear data > OK.
Tap Clear cache.
Note: this may reset Play Store settings. After clearing cache and data of the Play Store app, double check your settings: open Play Store > Menu (3 horizontal bars) > Settings.
If the issue persists, uninstall and reinstall Play Store app updates:
Go to Settings > Apps > Google Play Store.
Tap More (3 vertical dots) > Uninstall updates > OK.
Launch the Google Play store app, then tap Home (circle icon at the bottom of the screen).
Wait 5-10 minutes for the app to self-update and relaunch Google Play.

Automatic Force Checking in to Google servers is what worked for me. Hope it works for you too.
Good luck
google fit doesnt work on unoffcial rom
official lineage works fine
it says fit is having trouble with play services
This is an easy guide to making all of the normal features of google feed, assistant and stuff work properly on any android 7+ phone (haven't tested below 7) in any country that doesn't allow these features.
this is not for everyone, read this in full before starting so that you know what you are getting into.
so far, there has been no danger to my phone's software doing these stuff.
however im not responsible if you do something wrong. follow the steps properly.
DO NOT DELETE GOOGLE FRAMEWORK DATA ON ANDROID 9. THERE SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM
1. first of all download a VPN app from the play store, I personally used the CM VPN but use whatever you want. only important thing is that your vpn must have USA connection.
2. update your google app to the latest version, or even go all the way to the latest beta (I prefer the normal because feed looks nicer)
3. turn on the VPN and go to your location settings, and select GPS Only mode.
4. go to your apps in the settings, press "show system apps" and go to the G letter and find Google Services Framework.
delete all of the cache and data for that app. then find the google app. do the same but it happens in a different window, you gotta press manage data and then delete it from inside the google app.
5. open the google app, wait a few seconds and the google feed shows up. weather is missing and most of the features dont work yet, we will get back to them.
6. disconnect and close the vpn. then restart your device.
7. start by activating the assistant. first i suggest that you pause voice activity in google account settings.then activate the voice assistant step by step to the finish.
8. go to the google app, the 3 lines to the right( settings and stuff) go to assistant settings, in the 2nd tab find "phone" and activate voice unlock (this is just to test if the assistant is working properly) if the voice unlock gets activated properly then you're good, if it doesnt, try deactivating voice and audio activity and try again.
you can disable voice unlock after.
9. so now the assistant is activated, google feed is working, you also need to install a launcher that supports google feed page(i am using lawnchair 2 which is in alpha currently, you can use Nova, Rootless Pixel, or CPL or any other that supports it)
10. in order to get google at a glance on screen if your launcher doesn't have it, there is a widget in your widgets screen, from google themselves.
11. in order to activate the weather, go to location settings, select high accuracy, turn on google location history, and then go to the google feed page in your home screen, on the search bar type "weather" and search for it, open the weather page (the google weather app thingy) and close it. refresh the page and its up and running as the top card.
common problem: disappears after a while
do the search bar thing again and it works.
12. the last thing is reminders. type "reminder" in the search bar of the google feed page, make a reminder, then close the whole thing. open assistant, say show me my reminders, it will tell you the reminder you just set up. delete it using voice commands. then make another reminder using voice commands, go to the google app, open the 3 lines page (bottom right) then open reminders. if you have done everything properly, the reminder you set up in search is gone, and the voice reminder is there. if you don't need it, delete the reminder.
Thats all. I'm living in iran so i know all of this works 100%
Good Luck. ill be answering questions if there is any, whenever i check this again.

Hello,
I have imported this phone from China, and besides the CN bloatware, I cannot get Google Contacts and Google Maps (and Maps Go) work. Contacts does not sync any contacts, and Maps crashes on app start. The phone is fully updated and rebooted.
Originally the China version comes without Google Play and its required subsystem, so I wonder if I can update Google Play manually to hopefully fix all issues .. ? The seller, a big online exporter, installed Google Play before shipping.
Many thanks,
Pummelchen
hi
i'm going to buy this phone i'm from italy. actually i ve mi 10s with their incredible speakers( i'm going to put eu rom for that)
before buy i'm worried some google apps don't work, how can i add languages, whatsapp notification only when wake up? lots of thing
can you help me to decide because of that. some video shows playstore is installable even on joy ui 12.5 that block google services
thanks
The hardware part is incredible, as it's the fastest Android phone as of 2021-04.
The Google Services install app has been removed from the Xiaomi store, which sux.
Some sellers put the Google Play store on the phone to ease customer experience, but it's a buggy experience. For me, Google Maps did not load and Google Contacts does not sync my GMail contacts.
Currently I follow this guideline to install Google Services manually. Its a bit of a "hacking experience" to get this phone working ..
I'm sharing my experience with you as the "Google Map" crashed at launch & GPS doesn't location with me earlier. In the end, I made them both work. I found that the "Gmail account" at Google Map cause the crash at the launch.
To avoid Google Map crash at launch::-
1) Turn off your wireless/mobile data > Access Google map offline
2) Go to setting > Sign-out from your account > close the app > Go to app info & clear data
3) Turn on your wireless/mobile data > re-open Google Maps online.
BK4pro "Network location" apk came without permission privileges, so you must download another one to control GPS location with permission in order to run Google Map/Sygic/Duo ... GPS relevant apps:
1) Install "Network location" v1.0.0.apk by "Google LLC"
2) Give permission as described in the picture attachment. (optional step)
Hope it works for you!!
