From where did you buy it? Does your phone have other google apps like gmail, g+, google maps etc?
You can download the latest playstore (Version 5.4.12) from the attachment provided below..Transfer it to the phone and enable unknown sources...Install apk normally..
The apk/file provided by @a76vna is google installer...It will help you download all the apps made by google (Only google apps ; No third party apps can be downloaded from it)\
Please tell us how did it brick..Is it stuck on bootloop??...You can revive the phone by downloading and flashing the stock rom from official Asus website...

Sorry for the short post.
The phone was stuck in a boot loop. It would show the ASUS logo, then the spinning wheel.
Turns out the problem was that I was trying to flash the .11 version of the pre root image instead of the .13
Flashing the .13 version fixed the boot loop and also installed all the google apps! So both problems are solved now.
I was able to install all the gapps using this method.
I found the google installer for the miui and than it worked flawlessly.

Any changes you know where I can get the correct Google Play Services for the zenfone 2? I tried all sorts different version and nothing works. Every time I install it I just keep getting the message "Unfortunately google play store has stopped". I tried all sorts of different things to get it to work but its still not working. Right now I have it uninstalled by factory data resetting the phone. I downloaded the attachment you had and every time I open it it just close back and no errors. If anyone has any suggestions for me would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Will do. Some of you might already know this trick but ill tell you what I did. You need to uninstall google play store and google play services I could not do it from the phones options so I had to factory data reset my phone. To do so go to settings > Backup & reset > Factory data reset Note : This will erase all your data on your phone. I did not back up my data or turn on any of the options in the backup & reset. Ones you are done with the factory data reset check if you any google apps installed on the phone. If you do then try to find a way to uninstall them I don't know how. If you don't have them installed then go to settings > security > tun on unknown sources. Then go to your browser on the phone and go to m.app.mi.com then click on the green button at the top right hand side it will start downing Xiaomi market. When you have the app installed on to your phone open it and search google. You should get a button that says "search other markets" if you do click it. You need to find the right now I can't post pics so do a search for Xiaomi google installer in google images and you see it . This should install google installer, ones its done installing open google installer and install google play store you should know and see the icon for it. You will get a prompt saying install google services framework click ok. Then you should see "Google Services Framework" ,"Google Account Manager" , and two different google play icons. On the bottom there is a install all button click it. You will get another prompt just click continue and just keep hitting next and install ones you get prompted. That it you should have everything working now hope that helps.
PS: I know this is a long away to do it. You can just download for the 4 apps and transferring them to your phone internal drive and installing them. You could do that but that's not what I did.

google installer
so many people told about many things, but no one gave easy solution......I just installed Google installer_1.3_9.apk...thats it...now I can access google items in my Asus Zenphone 551ml...
Has anyone encountered such? If yes what was the fix.
Thanks in advance.
Need a fix for this as well, please anyone?
Are you running stock or a custom rom?
https://www.androidpit.com/forum/597999/how-to-solve-google-play-error-927
The first solution worked for me.
Sometimes the first solution worked for me, but since I was working with custom roms I reflashed gapps and had no problem after that.
Tried those fixes above and when I went to remove Google account and clear the data and then re-add Google account it stays on "Checking Info" screen and does nothing, now I'm truly locked out...
I'm on stock rooted Rom

Has anyone experienced a Force Close from Google Play Services when trying to add a card to Android Pay?
I have downloaded / installed Google Play services 8.1.15 (2250156-248) on my HTC One M9, as well as the latest APK for Android Pay. Its running on a stock rom. The devices was rooted, but I've unrooted it using the clean uninstall method provided by SuperSU. I assume that should do it.
All seems to go well until I press the + (to add a card). It thinks for a little while, and then force closes with an error indicating that Google Play Services was the problem.
Anyone?
I'm rooted and running the New Google Wallet App. I just was able to add a new card without unrooting.
The New Google Wallet app, or the Android Pay app? They are two different things.

It's the new Google Wallet App. I have noticed though that I cannot change my lockscreen now.
Bump...so we've got one other, anyone else ?
Google Play Services crashes whenever I try to add a new card as well. Running CM12.1, rooted, 2.10 firmware.
I finally got the Wallet App update that transformed it into Android Pay. I wasn't able to add a new card until I temp unrooted. After that I could add cards. I rerooted, but haven't tried it out yet (Wallet worked fine before.)
I'm unrooted. Still crashing. Perhaps because it's a Canadian phone?

Hey Guys,
today I switched from RR-Remix back to the latest version of OOS. Everything went fine so far, but I have recognized that I have no access to the Google assistant anymore. I have not rooted my phone yet, OEM is unlocked and I have TWRP. But I don't think that this should be a problem since it worked on RR-Remix.
It would be nice if someone can help me
Sincerely,
Firnien

Also make sure your system language is set to English (US) the assistant seems to have problems for me in other languages.

Hello everyone.
Today I decided to update my phone (12.5.8 Enhanced) to the latest MIUI version. I was kind of skeptical going into it, but still went with it thinking "why not?" When the update finished and the phone booted, it immediately rebooted and I thought maybe that's supposed to do that, but then it rebooted again, this time to MIUI Recovery mode. And now I discovered that whenever the phone tries to connect to the WIFI or Mobile data, it reboots. Every time. When the internet is turned off, it doesn't. And I noticed that my phone has become a bit laggy and not as responsive as with the previous version of MIUI I had on it, even the refresh rate isn't working properly, it says 120hz but clearly it's 60hz. The update rendered my phone hardly usable. What could be the problem? Has any Poco F3 users encountered these problems? What should I do next? Should I really consider flashing a custom ROM?
Thank you in advance, any help is kindly appreciated.
Wow. This is just with a System update on a phone with a locked bootloader?
You could try to format data... aka. Factory Reset.
If you unlock your bootloader, you must be aware of the downsides. Some apps won't work (atleast not without a workaround), like Banking apps, Netflix, Super Mario Kart, Google Pay.
That's cuz Google's SafetyNet API reports to those apps that the Security-Status of your phone is "Fail", because of the unlocked bootloader.
You can hide it with Custom ROMs that specifically list "SafetyNet passed" or by using Magisk Root with a SafetyNet Fix Module. Or Both idk whatever.
I use Xiaomi.eu Custom ROM on Android 12 with Magisk Root. Everything works, but this stupid cat & mouse game with Google and Android Modders definitely sucks.
I have a POCO F3 phone. No problems. Hope you used windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat. In your case, you must not use the windows_fastboot_update_rom.bat option.
I have been using MIUI 13.0.3.0.SKHEUXM for a while. There was no problem.
Now I'm on MIUI 22.3.2 / 3 (weekly). I recommend. Works great, amazingly smooth, great option for new sidebar widgets ...
Of course, you need to have an unlocked bootloader. Look here: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/howto-install-fastboot-image-update-info-no-ota-download.64508/
I have an unlocked bootloader. NETFLIX and Google Pay work without any problems.
Rule no.1 of miui: never update until the community approves of the update. there are always bugs, sometimes some are fixed, but other show up.
Im sure that there'll be a new update which will solve these problems soon, but who knows what kinds of issues you'll have after that. Maybe you should unlock the bootloader and flash back to miui 12.5x stock, so that you can actually use your phone.

Exactly, all are said here ... No probleme with stable and weekly version ... Balaam custom kernel can help also on those rom.
After any major OS update ( I mean moving from one version of android to another) It is recommended to do a factory reset to your phone just after the update finishes.
I always do it for my phones and I did the same for my Poco F3 and had no issues so far. The phone works great, battery improved drastically for me and overall feels fresh.
Try to do a factory reset and see how it goes. MAKE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR DATA.
Thanks for the replies.

The thing is, in order to do a factory reset on the phone I have to connect to the Internet which is the thing that's causing the phone to reboot.
Can I do it like through the MIUI Recovery panel? Is it the same?

Yes you can do that, you either boot to recovery from option in the update menu or hold volume up and power while the phone is turned off, then select wipe data. Just make sure to delete Mi account from setting and google account ( I know you have no internet but just making sure so you won't get stuck if somehow you forget your password). Good luck.
Got the same problem with the refresh rate.. 120hz option doesn't work and just does 60hz. I'm using the update my phone gave me. No beta or custom stuff. Just got the 13.0.3 global stable update. 120hz isn't working. Are there any better options for me now? I was thinking about flashing the previous 12.5 update back again. I heard someone here say I can use the xiaomi.eu custom ROM which works to root that one.. where can I find that ROM? And how do I flash that. (I've rooted phones before with magisk) but forgot most of it haha. So what's my best option here? I need my 120hz

Yeah, the refresh rate not working as intended is frustrating. As with the downgrading and flashing, I'm afraid I can't help you with it, because I haven't done anything with flashing/rooting and all that kind of stuff. Wishing the best for you.
Kindest regards and best of luck

Yoo. Some dude on Reddit found the solution!!!! You have to disable miui optimisation. Go to developer settings. Then all the way down somewhere it says: reset to default values. Click that a few times. Now a setting a bit down should pop up saying: "enable miui optimisation" enable that if it isn't already. Then disable it again. Now go to display settings and switch to 60 then back to 120 and there you go. You can now enjoy your 120hz again

Banking apps work if you don't root the phone. Descendant ROM for instance passes SafetyNet as long as you do not install Magisk.

Yup, I mentioned that in my comment. But depends on the Custom ROM of course, not all pass SafetyNet. The devs usually mention it tho.
Hi, is there a way to use MIUI launcher instead of Poco launcher on poco f3 MIUI 13 locked bootloader ?? Thanks !
Since the upgrade, the audio from my phone cuts out after a few minutes and I have to restart it. I use bluetooth earphones to listen to the 'BBC Sounds' app over my home wifi. It doesn't cut out if I use a Redmi Note 8 pro nor a Samsung A5 in the same circumstances.
I don't know if it related but sometime I receive a warning notification tha I've been wearing my earphones too long. I didn't receive this warning before the Miui 13 upgrade.
Can anyone suggest what I can do to resolve the problem with the audio on my Poco F3 ?
