[Q] Google play store - Motorola Droid Bionic

I was having issues with my google play store so I clicked "uninstall updates" and now it is gone. I don't have a market at all so I need to know which folder the vending.apk file goes in so I can manually reinstall it.
Can anyone tell me where to place the apk file?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hopfully this will help.

I tend to see the Market/Play Store hiding in /system/app/Vending.apk

Just download/install it from http://goo.gl/iRtA7 and make sure unknown sources is checked in settings and you should be good.

Thank you for all of the help. I finally got it installed but the weird thing is in the system/app folder the file is called phonesky.apk and is version 3.4.7 and in the data/app folder it is called com.android.vending and is version 3.5.16. I am not sure if the versions are supposed to match or not. I'm thinking maybe I should replace the older version with the newer and see what happens?

I'm not sure how your phone is set up but this is what happened to mine.
My phone is currently flashed 904 leaked update, Safestrap dualboot Eclipse 2.2 902.
Market would not work properly because of GooglePlay update. I ended up having to use Titanium Backup on my unsafe system to backup the GooglePlay app.
After the backup I went into the Market and uninstalled it on my "safe" system Eclipse 2.2. Note that phonesky.apk was no longer needed and it deleted the file.
Reinstalled GooglePlay through TB on my ROM and have not had the connection/download issues since.
Note that phonesky.apk in the /system/app folder is no longer there (confirmed in ESFileExplorer).
Also com.android.vending.apk is in the /system/app folder not in /data/app on my phone.
I would replace phonesky.apk with the com.android.vending.apk.
This basically deletes the market and loads Play Store as your app market.

I have Recovery. This is a zip file. How can i instal?
Try using ROM Manger, it may be a flashable zip.
write what you added and removed for cause because the same screen shots do not talk much
I put I zip to save space when uploading. extract and put in backup folder then restore.
The app Market is error. "The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Then FC button. Can you fix it for me? Thanks
Good job! Very nice indeed.

Download Android Market 3.3.12 here
If normal installation didn't work out well for you, use the method below.
Procedure to install via Root Explorer Method
1. Download the apk file from the above link to your sd card.
2. Now using Root explorer, go to /system/app
3. Mount the system to r/w.
4. Now search for Vending.apk & rename it to Vending.apk1
5. Copy the file you just downloded to /system/app & rename it to Vending.apk
6. Now press & hold the app and select Permissions
7. Select only the options given below. Now REBOOT & enjoy.....
The new market is incredibly slow compared to old market on my IncS CM7. quickly reverted back to old market. doesn't seem worth it just yet.
The new, and old, Market is very fast with this App.
Im using "Google DNS".
I can't see my own apps anymore in this market
Why in the new versions, the Market doesn't remember what I installed previously !?? It would be great if there was a way to remember what I installed and redownload it after a Full WIPE for example.... Why did they took away that option from us ?!
I find the new Market v3.3.11 is faster than the old one. As what Enes_81 and Me4oKyX mentioned, the installed apps in the phone is not being seen. I think that is the only part missing in the layout but it is still accessible when you press Menu button.
Market updated
what's the lateste version?
hmm i can't revert to the old market after flashing this one..
i just updated to a pervious version , trying yours right now , thanks

Try clearing the market cache and data. Then start the market again and it should update itself.

Then try the attached apk. But first rename the vending.apk (the market) in /system/app/ to vending.apk.bak (for example) and paste the attached file. And rename it to vending.apk.
Then restart your phone and see if it works.
Edit:
You also might clear the dalvik cache.

System App Installation Issue (My Files)

I wasn't thinking straight, and for some reason I tried installing the My Files app from the Galaxy S5 because I find it more better than the one in the Galaxy S6. In order to do this, I backed up the stock Galaxy S6 My Files app (/system/priv-app/SecMyFiles2015/), including the odex files. After that, I deleted those files then put the My Files app from the Galaxy S5 there. Then I rebooted my phone, and expected it to work for some reason. Obviously after I rebooted it, it didn't work. Since it was late at night, I left it at that. The next day after I realized why it wouldn't work, I began to attempt to restore the Galaxy S6 My Files app. I've tried several different methods, and none have worked yet. I researched this issue too, and all of the solutions which have worked for others in the past don't seem to be working for me.
Methods I've attempted so far, which haven't worked:
Copy the My Files app + odex files into "/system/priv-app/SecMyFiles2015/", set correct permissions, and reboot
Copy the My Files app into "/system/priv-app/SecMyFiles2015/", set correct permissions, and reboot
Copy the My Files app into "/system/app", set correct permissions, and reboot
Restore through Titanium Backup, as I backed this app up through this app before getting rid of it (TB just hangs when I initiate the restore process)
Installing the app through android's package installer
I attempted many other methods too, however I can't remember them right now. If I remember them, I'll add it to the list.
If someone could help me out with this issue, that would be great! Thanks in advance guys!
Bump! I would appreciate it if someone could help me out! I also obtained a screenshot of an error from logcat, which occurs when I start the app up.

since 5.0 for example the restore of system apps with titanium seems to be impossible, it won't work...

Why I have two "Phone"?

Hi, I flash lineage 17.1 in my A2 and opengapps (Stock), so all the AOSP apps should be replaced, but why I still have two PHONE apps in my phone? I even tried aroma packages, manually removed dialer then install it from google play, but still the same. Why?

I think they changed the package name so OpenGapps script can't delete it anymore. Idk if that's true or not but you can delete the app manually through twrp's root explorer. The folder must be under /system/priv-app or /system/app, when you find it just delete it and it should be good

Thanks, but the funny part is, I have deleted Dialer package during aroma installation, then when I restarted my phone, I noticed it was gone already, but before I could install it from google play, it reappeared! And that is what I cannot explain and want to figure out. any thoughts? Should I also delete Dialerframwork? (OpenGapps page says it is essential)

If you want to uninstall the LOS dialer then don't touch dialer framework, but if you want to uninstall google dialer uninistall it. I don't get why it reappears tho. Try to remove it manually please, that way you'll be sure the package was deleted
