Market + Google Apps keep disappearing.
For whatever reason, i cannot install Google Apps or the Market (the main one i want to restore, the rest i can just individually install, like maps).
Whilst using my phone regularly (no flashing/booting/anything like that) my market and my maps icons on the "desktop" go to the default android app icon (the white and green icon) and when i click on the links it says "Application is not installed" (using Launcherpro Beta). In system/apps both vending.apk+MarketUpdater.apk is there (so is all Google Apps).
But for whatever reason i cant access the applications through my phone. I tried flashing gapps-passion-EPE54B again and nothing comes back....
So does anyone have any ideas on whats wrong for starters, and how i could get market back?
Anyone have any ideas?
i think u missed to install google addon.. search ths article -->[ROM] CyanogenMod-5: Kang Central Station (STABLE) [05/25/2010 / 5.0.7.1] in development section
Nononono.
I had Market+Maps installed on my phone, i wasnt installing apps/flashing or anything. Then they randomly just disapeared. Now i cant make them return, with any method (flashing gapps/installing the apk)
wew... I haven’t the vaguest idea what to do.. sorry dude..
try to flash again.. wipe everything ths tym..
Yeah i reakon a wipe and reflash might work. But i would prefer not to do that (You know, everything is how i like it)
Hey long time lurker, so heres the rundown.
I just updated my N1 from Cyanogenmod 7.1 RC1 to 7.1 Final by doing a fresh install and wiping 'errthing and then restoring using Titanium Backup. However I keep getting a popup that says "Google Talk authentication failed" that won't go away and does not allow me to use the Google Market.
I tried to go into the "talk" app via my app drawer but it just ends up hanging on the sign in. Normally I don't ever use Google Talk or Google Voice but I tried setting up my Voice account to counteract this but still nothing helped.
Should I restore to 7.1 RC1 and just update (without wiping anything) and see how that turns out or can I somehow patch it up?
Thanks!
I would try deleting data from Talk, Gmail, Market, and Google Services Framework first...
Perhaps even fix permissions from within ROM Manager...
I actually ended up re-installing the ROM from scratch and instead of linking it to my Google account right away I simply restored all my apps +data (didn't restore data on Google apps) and rebooted.
After that I added my Google account to the phone and everything just worked.
Thanks for the advice though, that's probably what I could have done and not needed to re-instal.
Just encountered this problem and fixed it by using Titanium Backup (I use pro edition) as follows:
1)Open TB and hit the menu button
2) click the Market tools button
3) select Market Doctor
4) select user and system apps
let it run through and market works again and no more google talk error messages.
Didn't have to wipe/reset anything!
Gotta love TB!
guys, i am using super ics in my i9023. but Cant install Google Map 6.0 in ICS. i have wiped data and uninstalled maps with titanium backup and then tried to install maps 6.0 but it says install failed. tried many times but same result. any idea what happened? cheers
This is the latest gapps.zip (I think) with latest maps and music, but doesn't have wallet.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47770734/gapps.zip
I use koush's gapps @ http://download.clockworkmod.com/test/gapps-ics-20111125-2.zip (includes google wallet)
1. Use Titanium backup and convert google maps to a user app (long press maps)
2. market doctor -> deselect all -> find google maps -> doctor that
3. uninstall google maps
4. download google maps
.... and it'll work.
Can't find market doctor on the market
When I try to update I just get an error
Edit I see its an option in titanium but I'm scared to delete because I'm thinking that error will pop back up has anyone done this with success
BEST DAMN PHONE BECAUSE WE HAVE THE BEST DAMN DEVELOPERS!

same here, exact issue
no good maps/gps and can't uninstall and reinstall(DL) from market
maybe a cache issue?
Use the following commands with adb installed...
adb remount
adb shell
su
rm /system/app/Maps.apk
pm uninstall com.google.android.apps.maps
reboot
The issue, I think, lies with ICS
No other roms have this issue for me
I changed to pico from google tts--no issues

in most ROMs the lib files needed for google tts are missing. Just add them and google tts will work.
tried it--didn't work

Anyone ever figure this out? I tried this method, but Maps doesnt show up in Market Doctor when you run it.
UPDATE: nevmind. I think you need to select "Detach from Market" as well, for it to show up in Market Doctor.
ALSO, this doesnt work either. I followed the instructions and it just reverts to the factory 5.11 maps, and then gives error when you update.
I followed the steps and got Maps 6.0.
But I didn't liked it much, force closes like mad, reverted back to 5.0.1 now
first you'll need the ota.zip of the build you made of marshmallow in /sdcard
you'll also want to download this gapps: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347835438
Im not sure if other gapps will work, but this is the one that worked for me.
flash your stock aosp ota marshmallow .zip through your recovery (twrp or cwm)
then flash the gapps
reboot your phone...
soon you'll reach the setup screen. You're going to start seeing the Google Play Services errors flash on the screen but disappear. That's ok. Get through the setup wizard and you'll see your new google homescreen. Except if you run anything Google you'll get the Google Play services errors. So lets fix that.
Go to settings -> apps
Click on the three dots on top right and show system.
Taps on Google play services
Tap on permissions
And turn everything on
Now go and download the google apps your want and the google play services error won't pop up anymore. All this has to do with how Google changed the permissions in the apps. Im sure someone better than me will find a better way to fix this and this is just a temp fix.
is there any solution for nexus with original recovery?

I have a fix ready for this on ROM level.
Means a patch for custom ROM devs to apply
Here:
https://github.com/TeamExodus/frameworks_base/commit/9c36be651e83fb039a262682839bd920b033007a
Is there a way for this to work on an Android Emulator too?
I have created a new thread here:

If you know something, please let me know.
Hi All,
I just got my MIX. Stock Chinese ROM. Bootloader locked.
I'm having the hardest time getting google contacts to sync.
I opened up the mi app store and I did a search for 'google'.
I then installed the app that looksl ike a play buttoun surrounded by 4 partial circles (one in each corner). That installed a bunch of google stuff, including play store (which works).
There are no phone contacts though, and when I do:
settings -> other accounts -> Google
I don't see 'contact details' and I feel that's wrong.
I only have 'app data', 'gmail, google fit data, and people details.
I'm still locked so I can't install twrp to install gapps.
any other suggestions?
- Frank
I got it working - used this installer:
http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=280245&page=2#pid5079888
to install google contacts.
Then enable all contacts permissions for the app, then sync.
How do you guys enable permissions for google apps ? I flashed a Gapps pico zip and it's as if the permission system can't touch apps who are in /system (it's grayed out in the apps list), but i'm getting force close constantly because of google play services having no permissions for location services

Okay, I see what the deal is, as per
http://en.miui.com/thread-233426-1-1.html
the installer I used doesn't include the right version of google contacts.

Thanks but that's the issue actually, it's not in that list, because it's in /system (I think)
I think I had a similar issue with contacts not syncing from google, I had to permit something(i think it was "google contacts" or just "contacts") in the permission manager and after that it worked just fine after a reboot

I think you have to wait a bit for it to sync and maybe do a reboot and turn sync on off it happened to me aswell
Hey Frank,
I just got my Mi Mix and i'm running into the exact same problem. I have all the other Google play services installed and syncing fine (Gmail, Calendar, etc) but i can't see to get my contacts to show. I've tried installing both Google Contact sync 6.0.1 and even latest 7.1 and given permissions to everything , even tried rebooting multiple times, but contacts wont show in the Google accounts.
How did you get it to work?

I faced permission problems on China Stable and China Developer. I tried:
flashing gapps nano
using installer
following at least 3 different tutorials for MIUI 8 6.x gapps from en.miui.com
I finally gave up and installed the EU rom.
There's one thing missing in EU rom: They restricted the themes to only contaion international (mostly Indian) Themes.
But 90% of the cool themes are in the chinese theme store and they're awesome. But it's not possible to get them if they're paid. I have MiCredits and want to use paid chinese themes, but that's impossible on the EU rom.
I had the same issue when I first got the phone until I installed Google installer for MIUI

Does it manually sync or do you get an error?
I used the v1 installer to install Google contacts (looks like a red square with a white g). I wonder if it installed other frameworks.
Also I set same wakeup privs to the Google play services.
Once I get unlock code and can backup I'll reset my phone and try again from scratch.

Had the same problems with flashing gapps, it seems flashing gapps puts them in /system, which the permission manager in MIUI fails to access, so the system gapps are stuck without proper permissions. No idea how that's even possible since apk's in system get administrative rights AFAIK, probably an additional layer of security in MIUI ?
Eventually I wiped everything, started over again, flashed the dev rom, got these 3 required gapps apk's from apkmirror and installed them manually, everything worked fine after a reboot then.
Google Account Manager 7.1
Google Play services 10.0.84 (448-137749526)
Google Services Framework 6.0.1
Google Contacts Sync 6.0.1 (Not required for basic play store functionality, but you should use this version if you want google contacts sync)
I know there are installers on the miui forums that do this for you but they look very dodgy and the less Chinese apps on this phone the better.

If you become a theme designer you can access all themes I think

I'm on xiaomi.eu already, with working gapps. But I would be interested to go back to Chinese Developer ROM and install the gapps manually your way.
So which ROM do you use and do your google apps, especially GPS work for Google Maps and can you turn on Google Maps Timeline?
Even after using the installer v2, I found I had to downgrade Google contacts sync to version 4.0.4
Then contacts starting syncing.
Hi all. So just got and put it up for sale as contacts wouldn't sync and I use dual SIM pro to assign a sim to a contact. Even had problems with that. However just come across this thread and wondered if I installed EU Rom and these apps it would work?
How do I install the EU Rom?
Sorry for the noob questions.
First try Google contacts sync to version 4.0.4
I got mine yesterday and installed nova launcher prime and works great.

Can you give you details. I tried this and contacts just won't sync.
I am on Dev Rom 6.12.29.
What version of contacts did you use?
