Google Installer on Mi5 - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

hi
I'm trying to install Google installer and play store on myMi5, with MIUI 8.5 ( 8.5.3.0 ).
I have downloaded the apk for the installer, run it and its has completed and installed an icon on the home screen but it does not respond to presses. Same with Play store.
I have enabled install from external sources in settings, so is there some other tweak I need to make ?
Thanks
Mike

You can try to clear play store data from app meni or titanium backup.
Already done that...cleared play store, uninstall, install again...i was on slim ics....now i`ve moved to slim bean with a clean install (even format the sd card).
Now the problem is fixed. Maybe are more like me who had/has this problem so i would not close the thread...

HD 7 Google Play Games app "Error -505" on 5.1

I've gotten my Kfire worked out pretty well and everything works as it should except one glaring problem:
Every rom I try based on 5.1 Lollipop is unable to install the Google Play Games app from the Google Play Store or by means of apk. The "Unkown Error" it gives is "Error -505".
I've been looking all over the internet over the course of a few weeks and I can't find a working answer anywhere. The closest I could find was that in 5.0 some adobe air based apps would give you a -505 and clearing your Google Play Services cache or updating your rom would fix it.
Right now I'm using the last available nightly of CM11, but I would like to continue using the current nightlies of CM12. Seeing as how I have this tablet to play Android games, it's very important I find a fix for this.
Solution
Installing from the store will not work. Neither will installing from adb command line or installing an apk file.
I ended up selecting a gapps package that contained Google Play Apps in it.
I prefer a slim package, so I used the aroma graphical installer to only install the ones I wanted.

Can Google Play Games be installed on it's own from that package or would the entire gapps package need to be flashed? Additionally, any know issues with the latest CM12.1 nightly?

Yes. That's what I did. I already had the apps I wanted installed so I only selected the Google Play Games app from the package. It's all graphical so it's easy to use. You can also use that package to remove default rom apps and bloatware.
I had no problems with the most recent CM12.1 nightly but I didn't test extensively before switching to SlimLP (for preference).

How to reinstall Google Play services after installing CM12

Tried asking this in the newbie Q&A, but no response.
I have updated my Fire 2015 tablets with the custom ROM CM12 (from 5.01). My sincere gratitude to GGOW and those involved.
The problem arises when I try to sign-in to my game (Clash of Clans). It states I requires an update to Google Play Games. The tablet downloads the update but then returns the message: Can’t Install App.
I have installed supersu# and according to Root Check the tablet is currently rooted. Per suggestions I found in this forum, I tried to install an older version of Google Play services using the apk from APK Mirror. I downloaded it to the SD card and tried to use the CM FileManager to run. I granted all the permissions it asks for but it states “App not installed”. The same occurred when I tried to install Google Calendar. It seems that other non-Google apps install just fine.
I am admittedly very new to the Android scene (we all have to start somewhere). Is there some method I can use to uninstall the version of Google Play services on my tablet and reinstall? I appreciate any suggestions.
I ran into a problem when i didn't have Google play games installed, trying to install play games from the play store would result in a fail so i installed an older version , try searching "com.google.android.play.games-2.2.09" they should be dated 28 Jan 2015 they should then update from the play store fine, it seems there's a couple of apps that we have to install older versions first but they update ok.
I have downloaded Google Play Games from an apkmirror and problem solved

Best solution
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-games/
Google Play Games 3.5.17 (2463965-070) (x86) (nodpi)
Download the APK
put in a folder call it "GooglePlayGames" or whatever you want
Copy it to system/app/
Change permissions to one match of the other system apps so they are the same permissions on the folder and apk
Reboot and google play games will be installed

- Open GAaps (not opengaggs)
- error installing Google Play Google from official Play Store is a known issue
- simply download/install Google Play from APKMirror
- no need to change Open GAaps build (bad idea...)

[solved] Google play store no notification

Hi !
On my nokia 7 plus (android 9 / 00WW_3_39D) I have a problem on google play store.
When I install an application no progress notification of download and installation is displayed ...
But I have the right to install installed ...
I launched "reset pref apps"
Verifications of the authorization of the notifications in the checked, unchecked and recchecked parameters (for google play store, download, service play store)
Restart phone.
With these manipulation: no positive impact.
When I download to a browser without problems, the notification and download icon in progress is displayed.
Here is a screenshot "log of notifications":
download but not visible in the bar ... application has been installed this time visible ....
if you have any ideas to solve this problem I'm interested: D

i don't have this problem, what version of Pie you have?
what version of PlayStore? (my is in screenshot)
also you know you can update PlayStore by click on PlayStore/Settings/Version?
December patch 3.39B SP01. Tried clearing cache and storage of the playstore, still not working. I know i can update the playstore, when i tap the version number it says it is ' up to date'

Problem solved!!!
Wifi & 4g Disable,
Deleting the Play Store and service Play store data,
Disabled Play Store,
Clean Cache with Sdmaid,
Restart the smartphone,
Reactivate the Play Store,
Download Notification and installation progress works perfectly!!
Thank you!
Hi,
other solution found on the forum OnePlus:
"
So i cleared the cache and data of Google play Store and boom it worked. Now download progress bar is there.
So the steps that worked for me was:
1) Settings-> app & notification->see all apps->3 dot at top & choose show system-> android setup-> clear cache and data
2) Go back-> scroll down to download manager app-> turn off all the setting and enable it again
RESTART NOW
3) Go to app and notification-> select Google play Store-> clear cache and data
Now start downloading any app.
