Hi guys, i have a question. Is there any way to stop Google play services auto updates? I ask, because suddenly my battery drain problem on kit kat came back, and lookin i found that Google ps was on versión 5.x, so i uninstalled updates an left it on versión 4.x, and everything came back to normal.
settngs/apps/all apps , google playstore service... go to manage n clear all data... den uninstall...den disapble
Then he won't have Google Play services at all. It's not what he's asking for.
OP - no, unfortunately there is no way to stop it from auto-updating. However, if you clean the data as I wrote here - you might get lucky and not have any drain with version 5.x. I have it and it's fine.

Thanks man, i'll try that
Wakelock Termination....
There is only one way perfectly working for me so far with all updates for Google play services....
Install Xposed Framework
Install Wakelock Terminator Wakelock Terminator on Play Store
Activate it in Xposed
Open the Wakelock Terminator and look for google play services
Activate Wakelock Terminator for Google Play Services (In free version only 1 can be added to wakelock).
Add these values in the Filter for Google Play Services
NlpCollectorWakeLock NlpWakeLock CheckinService NetworkLocationLocator
Restart.... You can even check it in app and running menu in settings that you would only see 1 process running for play services and it won't be keeping your CPU awake..... Check it using Wakelock Detector....
Go ahead and give it a try and enjoy.... :good:
Share this info if this helps you..... Let as many people know about it.....
Press Thanks if I helped....

I think with the advent of Google Play Services 6.5.99 (or perhaps a bit earlier) the auto-update issue has become a problem again.
According to my recent observations Google Play Services 6.5.99 performs periodic location pings (every 15min) or so. With my settings ("Device only" location mode, but "Location reporting" and "Location history" turned "Off"), it is using GPS and thus unnecessarily drains the battery.
I don't see the problem with Google Play Services 6.1.05 so I'd rather wish Google would not auto-update Google Play Services.
Call me a newbie (I'm fine with that because I am as far as Android is concerned) but I find it outrageous that Google can update a core component on my phone without my consent, introducing phone issues, sub-par performance, or undesired behaviour at their whim. An opt-out facility for the auto-updates would be the least one would expect.
The Google Play Store allows one to opt out of automatic updates to downloaded applications so why isn't this setting not consulted when it comes to "Google Play Services"? I realise that probably no one here knows the answer, but I found it very hard to find a place to actually provide Google with feedback regarding "Google Play Services".

I ve faced the same isse with the repeated gps activities since the last update from the play Services.
But i think the cause of this phenomenon is the Google search! Ive disabled the google search app, and now I dont have this strange gps requests!

Thanks heaps for confirming.
I wasn't sure whether my (stock) system got messed up somehow.
I wonder why there hasn't been more of an outcry over the new location pinging behaviour. I find it unacceptable and can only believe it is due to a bug rather than intended.
I hope that future versions of "Google Play Services" will behave differently and found it frustrating that I couldn't locate a forum where Google developers would be listening to "Google Service Play" concerns. I made a post in a "Google Search" thread at a Google forum (not allowed to link to it yet) but I'm afraid it is off-topic there.

I first believed "Google Search" to be the culprit as well because disabling it got rid of the location pings.
However, that only worked once and later attempts to kill the pings by disabling "Google Search" were unsuccessful. Perhaps you should check once in a while whether the pings are coming back because it appears to me that it really is "Google Play Services" and it is just being triggered by various sources.
Also, being able to initiate a google search by just wiping up the home button, is a rather crucial feature to me. Disabling "Google Search" would force me to fire up a browser instead which would be a lot more cumbersome. Given that a different version of "Google Play Services" does not perform the pings even while "Google Search" is available, I'd say one should attempt to tackle the problem by addressing "Google Play Services" not "Google Search".
BTW, I opted out of "Google Now" just to make sure that there aren't any location based cards that request location updates.
So just today (June 14th), on my Galaxy Note 5 N920I (Android Marshmallow), a lot of my apps started to crash. Here's a list:
TypeApp
Pocket
Google Opinions
Calendar
Google
Google Play Store
Best Buy
Now, the first thing I did was to wipe the cache and data of Google Play Services, then Services Framework. After that didn't work, I did the same for all the Google Apps.
One that didn't work, I tried to wipe the cache partition, which did not solve the problem.
Then I tried uninstalling Google Play Services Updates and reinstalling via an APK. This also did not work.
I then tried removing my Google Account, which was a huge mistake. I now cannot add my Google Account or even log into the Play Store because, each time, I am hit with the error "Unfortunately, Google Play Services has Stopped".
So now I am locked out of any Google Apps and most of the apps on my phone will no longer work as Google Play Services crashes as soon as they try to load.
I now have no other solutions that I know of. Any insight would be most appreciated.
Thanks.

hi ,
you don't say if you are on stock Rom , rooted ,used Package Disabler /or something similar /or disabled any apps .??If you using Xposed Framework etc. ?
( this could have a" knock on" effect re Google Play issues etc )
Have you tried flashing " correct latest stock" Rom for your device ?
good luck
Would you like to try factory reset?
Good luck to you.

Restore via odin stock tar file.
so, i've tried a lot of methods and seems like the best i can do is logging into google play store, but not youtube and other google apps?
couldn't sign in
there was a problem communicating with google servers.
try again later.
need some guidance here, how do i get everything to work?
i found out that there's a bug for data vs wifi - you need to connect to wifi in order to sign in.

I can confirm this, apps like "Google", "Voice Search" and "Assistant" time out with errors when using data on T-Mobile, but it works on wifi. I can't navigate to a street using assistant over 4G, but if I go directly into the Maps app and use the microphone icon in Maps it works correctly.
Does anyone know if there's a fix for this?

is it just for Tmobile or google services don't work on any mobile data?
Go to Apps & Notifications > Google services
Same issue
I am having similar issues. But, at one point google play store was stuck on loading. Also, gmail wasnt sending or receiving emails.
The problem comes and goes. Like, just now, I couldn't load any YouTube videos.
When I connect on WiFi, all the problems go away and switching back to mobile data. Works for a bit.
It is also only Google services. Twitter, WhatsApp, chrome, all fine.
@op, what sim card slot are you using?
Got it to work.
Go to System -> Applications -> Google Services
And turn on "Allow to use Mobile Data"

If you go to Settings -> Applications -> See all ### Apps -> [scroll to and tap on Outlook app] -> Data Usage -> [turn on "Background Data", and "Unrestricted Data Usage" options]
Tell me if that works. I did this step for apps: Calendar [google version from Play Store], Carrier Services [from Play Store] Gmail, Google, Google Play, Google Play Services, Google Play Store, Google Services Framework, Hangouts.
I gave them all unrestricted data access and full permissions just to be safe. It's not like there's a risk of running out of battery on this phone, lol!
edit: I am on the China rom version and I see these settings.

I flashed into the WW version. So, all my little issues went away.
My instructions was for Google services.
Have your tried to go to battery optimisation and turning off optimisation for Outlook?
Also, there might be something under mobile manager to turn off as well?
Hi! I specifically made an account to reply, or rather, to reconfirm, that issues about this topic still persists in my phone.
Bought the Tencent Edition of the ROG Phone 2 few days back, I first encounter this issue yesterday when I open my Maps app and the map didn't load (grey screen) and at that time I was using my mobile data. Searched the net how to fix it, and did a few tweaks (mainly clearing cache, data and removing google account) and thankfully the map loads. However, another issue arises, I can't use Google app, Play Store and can't login on Google Maps. When I try to log in my account, I get the "There was a problem communicating with Google servers", and I assume most of you guys here had that exact problem.
I tried everything that almost every forums recommends. Starting from rebooting the phone, uninstalling updates from Google Play Store, clear the cache and storage of Google Play services and Google Play Store again, checked if my Apps & notifications/Google Services is on, turned on all notifications; permissions; background data and unrestricted data usage on all corresponding Google apps and services (Carrier Services, Google app, Google Play services, Google Play Store, Maps) and turned off battery optimization for the mentioned apps. Not any of the above worked for me, the only thing that resolves it is when I used Wifi to log in.
I know that this may be a minor issue and I know that I won't feel any of it hindering my daily phone usage. But I'm really bothered by the fact that something in my phone doesn't work normally as it should. I have been using Samsung phones for the longest time and haven't experienced such problems before. Is this really a bug and can't be fixed till who knows when, or is there something that I overlooked? Thanks much and sorry for the lenghty post. Blessings
cn version has this issue
fixed with ww rom
cn version is destinated to oriental market especcially
Thanks much for the help!
I don't have any experience in modding ROM, but I did find a guide here on how to do that. I'll think about whether I'm gonna try flashing my ROM or not, because... flashing ROMs will void the phone's warranty, yes?

If you bought a phone that was meant for the Chinese market in another country, you never really had a legit warranty right to begin with. (at least not with Asus, maybe with the seller if they have such policies)
Chinese ROMs have all Google services blocked. (Google services are banned in China). So you need to flash to WW ROM, sometimes seller will do it when they sell a Chinese phone to a different market, but apparently not in your case.

That makes sense lol.
Alright, I'll try flash my ROM later. Any noob-friendly guide you can recommend to me? Other than the guide by AryanAA.
And um, I know I can probably learn this if I searched for it, but does flashing your ROM resets/wipes your whole phone? And is there any major changes I should know (like maybe I won't be able to use some features ever again)? And is it kinda similar to rooting your phone?
Sorry for the noob questions, any help is much appreciated. Tqvm!

Hi was your issue fixed? I'm having same issues on Rog Phone 2, YouTube, Gmail, Google drive won't load with 3h/4g, they only load with WiFi. Have you for a fix ? Please reply
Hi guys, coming back to the forums after a long hiatus!
I have this issue also... Gapps don't work great on mobile data but perfect on WiFi... Some are fixed after clearing data but some are persistently bad such as gdrive which is important to me...
My phone is from ebay, its a tencent with a global rom and I'm in the UK...
Looking at my device info, it looks like my phone has a WW rom but a CN fingerprint... I will have the fingerprint changed today, update to 1910 and drop an update...

Hello all,
I have a very annoying problem and I would really appreciate it if someone more experienced could help me with some advice:
I have a MI CC9/9Lite that I updated to MIUI 12 20.8.20 Beta, China ROM (I absolutely despise the EU Rom, so please don't tell me to just flash that).
I did not manage to install the Google apps through the "Google Installer" app from Get Apps (first time after install crashes, then freezes at 3% every time) so I installed each component separately (Google Services Framework, Google Play Services and from here everything else).
Everything works perfect, except it doesn't
I get an error on every app that loads a map telling me that "Google Play Services are updating". I have tried many and I mean many versions of the Google Play Services from APK Mirror, APK Pure, even the one from Get Apps. I have granted absolutely all permissions required to all Google apps. I have chose carefully the corect architecture.
The dirty message "Google Play Services are updating" still appears and none of the maps load. This applies also to Mi Fit, wich I installed from Get Apps (why does a native chinese app need Google software to run???) and other maps that are not based on G Maps technology.
The last few days have been crazy. My girlfriend will not speak to me because I only play with the phone.
Please help! Thank you! ?
PS: thank you for reading all this!
Flash revos, they have just released an update very good romhttps://api.revtechs.me/downloads.html

Hi,
unfortunately I had to change my password for my Google account for various reasons. Since this account was previously set up with the Googlefier on the smartphone, it can no longer be used or the new password can not be entered on it, it is not accepted. So i deleted the account on my phone because of the various error messges from all the apps which are using this account.
I still have a second Google account, which is also already available on the smartphone and which also still works. Nevertheless, I would like to use the other account also, because it is my main account. But when I try to add the main account as a new account on the smartphone, that doesn't work either ("An error occurred, we could not create the account").
Hence my question: googlefier is still installed. Can I use it to subsequently create the second account without having to reset the firmware on a 10.x version? Running 11.0.0.168 currently....
As a workaround i'm using Dual Space already, in which i can access my main google account, but thats not the "real thing"...
thx, jennix
Yes, you can, here is a very simply away:
- Uninstall Google Play Service.
- Install Micro G, then add your new account.
- Uninstall Micro G.
- Install Google Play Service again.
thx, but does uninstalling and reinstalling Google Play Service work without downgrading the firmware?

Yes, you can do it on Settings -> Apps -> Apps. (Just only remove 1 app: Google Play Service)
You don't need to downgrade or restart your phone.
Can anybody confirm if it is working.
No, it doesn't seem to work like i need it. But first, something reassuring: The smartphone will still run afterwards, so nothing will break.
But the real purpose, to bring my main account back to the device, didn't work. I have made several attempts. I uninstalled Google Play Services, installed Micro G, added both accounts (both were then visible under Vanced G account), then uninstalled Micro G, installed Google Play Services, and all that happened was that only my secondary account was available again. I couldn't log in with the main account, e.g. in Play Store or in maps, there were always error messages like "we are having problems with server communication" etc.
In another attempt, I created only the main account in Micro G, and still afterwards only the secondary account was operational in Google Apps.
I did this several times, sometimes also with restarting the phone between the steps, but it's still the case: my secondary account is working, the main account is still not there.
OK, i can live with this, but...

Because you mentioned you changed password for 1st account, so I think that you have to remove it first by going to:
- Settings -> Users and Accounts -> Google.
- Access your 1st account here, then click on the recycle bin icon to remove it.
Then you can do those steps again (Remove Play Server, Install Micro G, add account again, remove Micro G, install Play Service).

Does Google play Works?
Yes.
But depend on what method do you use for having GMS. I have an old one, all works; with Googlefier I think you can have notification or Google Play (freeze framework or not).
