[Q] Converted to GPE, no OTA and "you have no devices" - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Yesterday morning, I converted my HTC One Dev Edition to the Google Play Edition, 4.2.2, using the full-conversion RUU. I followed the same guide that many others have used that is supposed to be a "full conversion" with OTA updates. The phone came unlocked, I added S-OFF and Root before conversion using guides here on xda. Everything went fine.
The phone was behaving fine; I was able to install apps from the phone and the Google Play website. However:
About 36 hours later:
- I have not received the 4.3 OTA update, despite many attempts and restarts, and the frameworks hack that some people are using. Every time i check for updates, it only instantly updates the "last checked." The frameworks hack, btw, did not mess up my connection to the Play Store.
- The Google Play website now says "*you don't have any devices", although I can still install apps from the Play store on the phone, and those purchases are reflected in my Google account history.
- Titanium Backup is showing that it does not have Root, although I was able to use apps like Root Explorer to browse the filesystem as root.
I have tried restarting, manually upgrading the Play store to version 4.3.10, removing and re-adding my Google account, stopping/disabling/clearing the Play Store app's data, etc. Nothing has changed.
Any ideas?

The ota is a staged rollout. You'll get it when you get it. And just because you were rooted prior to the conversion does not mean you are anymore. You will need to re-root. As far as the play store, I have no idea.

[Q] lost root with update, now google services won't work.

Hey everyone
I got the update from att and I lost root (rooted on mj5 before). I didn't actually want to update but I checked for updates and it did it automatically. My fault I know. Anyway, I had freedom installed and now I can't connect to any Google services. I removed my Google account and now I can't re add it.
I tried removing freedom the exact way it says to and it didn't work.
Any suggestions on what to do? I tried to re root with Kingo but it tells me "no support", which is strange to me because others have successfully used kingo with this update. Even if I'm not rooted, I just want google services working again.
If I was rooted again, I have read a few ways to try to fix the error.
I did try clearing app data for Google services and play store.
Thanks all

[Q] Unrooted supersu google play stopped working

Hey guys, im running a galaxy s4 active i9295 with android 4.2.2.
Everything standard except it was rooted, decided to unroot so I could upgrade to 4.4
and used the supersu unroot to do so, unfortunately as I I did this my google play has stopped working :/.
Ive done all the date/time methods cleared all the data from the apps, even removed my google accounts. Its not even letting me sign back into them or make another account. Im very confused and have little knowledge of what else to do!!
Also rerooted my phone deleted host file and that didnt work, then re edited it like it says in a couple of guides. Also uninstalled google play store with titanium backup and re installed it from a different source and still no luck

No Google Services

I have not booted my GT1970P in over two years. It did boot up and looks the same. However, I am unable to use Maps (no maps load) or Playstore (no button for My Apps). My Google password has changed since I last booted, but don't see where to update account password, only to delete account. The SIM is an old expired SIM as I am only interested in using the phone as a small tablet. I still have a rooted stock ROM, Android 2.3.6. CoCore P1.0 kernel. I was going to delete account and re-add as a last resort. Any suggestions?
You should probably think about updating to 4.1 (Leggera is great). Gingerbread is ancient and probably won't run most apps.
You could try to find APKs compatible with 2.3 for Play Services and the Play Store, see if you can change the password. If you still can't, you'll probably need to remove the account

Meizu M2 mini freeze and drains battery since latest Google Play Services update

Since latest Google Play Services update (14.7.99) that occured on 4th decembre 2018, my battery lasts only a couple of hours even if I am not using it. All Google Apps don't work anymore including Play Store.
When downgrading to version 14.5.82, everything works again but even if I disable automatic updates in Play Store, Google Play Services keeps updating itself to latest version without asking me any permission.
Is there a way to force block of Google Play Services update until a fix is found ?
Otherwise, does anyone can give me an updated guide for installing TWRP and an alternative ROM ?
I am using Flyme 6.2.0.0G. I have root access with SuperSU installed in system. Root access is confirmed with RootChecker. But I understood that this is not enough. Getting root access doesn't mean bootloader is unlocked, does it ? Is there a way checking bootloader is unlocked before trying to install TWRP ?
Thanks for any response you could give me.

There is a post on forum about unlocking bootloader and my tries on checking it on comments. See if it helps. Dont flash twrp without confirming bootloader unlock. Otherwise your recovery may lose and may cause brick.

I started to have this issue on 6/12/18. Google play services used 25% of my battery and I could not use any Google service. (It asked me to sign in again and again.)
I followed this guide (the flash recovery part is mistyped there, I needed fastboot flash recovery filename.xxx to install the new recovery). I downgraded to Flyme 4.5.2 (or whichever version allowed me root by signing in to Flyme), unlocked the recovery and installed AOSP. (CM12 had the same issue with google, Lineage OS didn't boot up.) When I sign in from AOSP, Google emails me that a login was made from a Meizu M6 Note. It thinks my device is safe. It even lets me download Netflix.
I also tried whitelisting my device and allowing less secure apps at Google while on CM, these didn't seem to help.

M2 is out. All new devices released on 2018 are google certified.
About it, custom rom doesn't work. Google Play Service does not work on Lineage Os.
Same here. I've tried to use custom Roms with Android 5.1, 7.1 and it's all the same.
On the other hand, I've got back to Flyme and the issue also occurs, but there's a slight difference. After the Play Store auto updates to v. 12.x.x. then it stops working (error 920 or can't log in). Resolution for this is to delete the Google account in Settings and add it again, yet this works for 5 minutes tops...

Few questions for K20 Pro owners

Hi. After a quick search i couldn't find specific answers to my questions so i thought i'll ask here. Note that i'm not interested in flashing any other ROM on it, i want to keep it locked bootloader, on china rom only.
As i have seen on various YT videos, once i get the phone china ROM with locked bootloader, i need to install play store from the xiaomi app store. I see many people get random errors when they try to install, "can't downgrade apps".
1. I've seen workarounds to restore phone to factory settings or clearing something in settings and retrying. Can this just stop working one day?
2. Once i've installed play store, will the device be play store certified?
3. Say i update system software to MIUI 11, can play store just bug out, making me factory reset phone and redo the process again?
4. Will play store auto update itself, or can i update it from play store settings?
5. Will NFC work on china rom locked bootlader in Europe? Moreover, will banking apps allow me to install their apps, considering device may not be play store certified or just not compatible with china rom?
Thank you all for reading.

if unsure better to ask seller to install playstore for you before purchasing the phone , mine came with playstore preinstall , yes its certified , mpt yet received miui 11 update yet , cant advise , i think mine playstore was self updated , i have not used the nfc feature yet .
1. I've seen workarounds to restore phone to factory settings or clearing something in settings and retrying. Can this just stop working one day?
If you reset your phone, it will also delete playstore and googleplay and services apps.
2. Once i've installed play store, will the device be play store certified?
I hope so, if it isn't certified then you have to register your phone to google (Playstore) for certification. https://www.google.com/android/uncertified/ More here: https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-fix-device-not-certified-by-google-error/
3. Say i update system software to MIUI 11, can play store just bug out, making me factory reset phone and redo the process again?
Yes, afaik you will have to install Playstore and other googleplay supporting apps again after OS updates.
4. Will play store auto update itself, or can i update it from play store settings?
Yes, it will auto update.
5. Will NFC work ...
Yes.
