First of all, wrong section mate. Always post such question in the Galaxy Ace S5830 Q/A section. As for the TimeScape UI problem, did you follow the steps to be done after the installation? You can find the necessary details here. Also make sure to sign into your Google account. Google Play usually comes up right after you do that. Do post the result. Hope I Helped
P.S. Reported to FM to move to right section.

thanks for correction, but....
thanks for your correction...i'll post it there...
but the matter is when first time i finished the installation, reboot my phone, and enter the main screen...there is no login screen to login our Goggle account...
any suggestion?

Try going to Settings>Accounts & Sync> Add Account. See if it works. Do post the result. Hope I Helped

i've try adding account using that way..but there is no google connection...
it's just a kind of any regular email...and after logged in my phone still can't access the Google Play even i have installed another googlePlay.apk

Did you flash Gapps package? Because Gapps aren't installed in this rom.. You have to flash the Gapps package provided in the download section by the developer..
After that replace the old Playstore with the latest version or let it update itself. You will be able to add Google account after that..

That's odd. Can you try installing the rom with any of the other UI's and see if the problem persists? Do post the result. Hope I Helped

thank you so much...this advice solved my problem.

Latest Google Play Services

I installed the latest google play services apk and most likely shouldn't have... now getting an error via google play music now... seems to work fine but says ... unknown issue with Google Play Services ... Requested by google play music... No idea what it means.. I can't seem to expand on the error message...

Install this and you should be all fine.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u...gms-7.0.99_(1809214-440)-7099440-minAPI21.apk
If you cant install, go to app manager and attempt to delete it and it will then let you uninstall updates then use the above apk or update through the play store.

*another one for me*

Can anyone give me a tip on how to download Google Drive files on mobile? The zips always get saved as some weird name eg 2016-08-23- XXXX and saved to some weird location that does not show up in search (not Downloads folder). Really annoying, I am sure there is a simple workaround.

@AL_IRAQI worked perfect man! Since I've been using Nexus Launcher, it's been bugging me to no end that I wasn't able to get rid of Google Now Launcher. This is great, thanks!!

will this work on Stock Nougat and is this a flashable zip?
thank you

Yes, it works like a charm just flash the zip file in the custom recovery and then the Aroma installer UI appears and later on it's self explanatory.
I did it on latest Feb 2017 security update (N4F26O) on Stock Android

Just a quick note, seeing this is still a recurring thing, anytime I flash OpenGapps aroma version, the apps that are excluded are automatically removed from the rom after the aroma zip is flashed. So aroma package also functions as a debloater.
If you have no scripts or don't know what to do, using Aroma OpenGapps has been a good alternative option for me.

I assume this will work with custom ROM?
I used to flash nano or pico gapps but recently I've needed Full package or Google Assistant won't fully work. Thanks

[Guide] How To Set Up microG Easily

Introduction
microG GmsCore is a FLOSS (Free/Libre Open Source Software) framework to allow applications designed for Google Play Services to run on systems, where Play Services is not available. If you use your phone without GAPPS this might become a useful tool for you.
microG GmsCore is one of the two core components of the microG project. His job is to replace the Gapps (you'll continue to use the PlayStore), thus giving you a longer battery life and performance without loss of resources.
This software is not developed by me, I am just sharing a tutorial for it to get things easy
All the credit goes to @MaR-V-iN for developing the app
And @ale5000 for making a flashable zip.
Guide-
1. You must be on a ROM that supports signature-spoofing. For Z00L, the ROMs available that supports signature-spoofing are halogenOS, crDroid and AOSPExtended.
2. There must not be any kind of GApps package installed.
3. Flash these two files-
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=141201
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=143098
4. Enable signature-spoofing in ROM settings for halogenOS and crDroid. (AEx already has enabled signature-spoofing, there will appear a permission-granting dialogue in microG app).
5. Open microG Settings > click on self-check > Give signature-spoofing permission. Rest all of the settings will be enabled automatically.
6. In Google services, enable device registration, GCM and SafetyNet.
7. Enable unifiedNLP settings.
8.Install google contact sync (apk provided in download section). Give both the contact permissions to it.
9. Reboot
10. Enter settings> accounts and add your Google account as usual. You're done!!
(To check if push notifications are working or not, check it with the testing app provided in download section)
Hit Thanks If I Helped.

I already voted 5 star bro & now pressed thumbs up.thanks for rply.

Good tutorial.. Now i know how to flash microG. But one doubt, the only diff is the absence of play services right? Others things are same gapps? Does microG sync everything, like Google drive , photos, maps etc?

@kunalchitara: I have released new versions of microG unofficial installer and Google Sync Add-on.
Can you please update the links?

Its completely minimalistic approach for Google services. Amd google contact sync works. Other apps might sync but not surw about them.

The second link isn't updated.
PS: The second link is the Google Sync Add-on (that contains also the contacts sysnc apk), why you also say "Install google contact sync"?
In this way it is installed two times.

Updated the second link.
And the contact sync apk that came with the zip wasn't working properly so, i installed contact sync adapter apk seperately and it worked. Haven't tried the new version though.
