No Google Services - Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

probably easy question

I need to get my modded cyanogen 1.6 back to reset.
By reset i mean how it comes after you get it modded with cyanogen. With cyanogen on it, but just the apps.
How would this be done?
( this is because i need to input a new google account.. i tried doing the clear deffault google apps and enter new google account, but this app still reads old account)

Market/Play store error 101

Hi guys!
i know the 101 error is a common problem after flashing ics roms on galaxy nexus.
yesterday i flashed a new ics rom (teamhacksung build 16 to 17), which went smoot as always at first.
after signing in to my gmail account, it automatically downloaded some of my previously installed apps (even so i didn't want it to).
anyway, that was the last download from the market so far. every time i try to install an or update an app, it says "error downloading ..... error -101".
i tried the suggested sollutions, signing out and back in, clearing cache, remove update, even flashed back to build 16.
so far nothing helped.
weird thing which is probably related to the problem:
when i go to https://play.google.com/store/account i got 2 devices there, both sgs i9000. i just own one.
thanks for your help!
I too am getting these same problems. I am using slim ICS 2.8 on my Bell i9000
i somehow managed to fix it for me.
i'm not sure if this is reproducible, but:
- i cleared the cache and uninstalled the update of the market app
- i logged in to another googlemail account, then switched to this one in the market properties.
- after switching back to my original gmail account everything worked as intended
I too had this error after i updated my ROM to the latest version. I managed to fix it but i'm not sure if it would work for you
-Delete Google Account
-Clear play store cache
-Enter Google Play
-Sign in with the Google Account
Same
Hey, so I have the same problem as you guys.. Apart from, it tells me that no account is registered. How brill. Any tips on what I should do? Please and Thank yous
Android error 101
Hey got some updates about error 101. I have a rooted xperia play. First my encounter with this error started after downloading Brothers in Arms. In consistently gave me the error whenever I download any apps more than 24 hours,
tried logging to another gmail account, clearing cache, changing 3g to wife but nothing works. Then I realized that I've froze and uninstalled some bloatwares/pre-installed apps on my xperia, I have titanium back up (free ver) for unistalling and system cleaner for freezing apps. So I restored everything (not resetting to factory default), reboot my phone, then tried to download apps again, and it went back to normal, I was able to download apps again.
The only question here is which of the pre-installed apps that I blocked that cause the 101 error... Hope this helps, I'll try to see which app it is.

I don't really think that is the case. Cause I have a fresh instal and it gave me this error. Of course, there may be a chance that a file for corrupted while flashing though. And its probably google talk or something. That's one of them that manages the play store from what I remember.

[Q] Converted to GPE, no OTA and "you have no devices"

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.

Google Play Services Has stopped -- i'm becoming crazy

Hi
Samsung galaxy tab 8.9 P7300
I was working with a 4.44 rom and some days ago began popping up of "google play services has stopped".
I tried all procedure find on internet (clear cache/data of google play service, framework, google play...)
I reinstalled the rom 4.44 and tried new rom 7.1 with opengapps (nano/pico) with this sequence:
From twrp
clear data/system/cache/dalvik
Install rom+gapps
clear cache dalvik
reboot
and
SAME PROBLEM!
google play service version
10.2.98 430
help!
EDIT:
My workaround
Rom Android 7.1.1
Opengapps ver. 20170119 version (Google Play service ver. 10.0.84)
After automatic update, "disable" Google Play service and, automatically, restore ver. 10.0.84)
Disable system update on developer menĂ¹ (waiting Google fix... hope)
Hi derekz2,
I spent the whole day yesterday dealing with the same issue as you do, but so far no luck, until now I have not been able to get it working. I tried Android versions 5.1.1, 6.0, 7.1.1 (different ROMs), but all of them have the same issue with Google Play services. I tried more gapps I found here, not just opengapps, but also some others that were meant to be used with that ROM (according to ROM's authors), but again, nothing helped. I also followed many suggestions I found online, still nothing. Recently I tried not to install gapps from recovery, I tried to download Google Play services from the web (I tried also older version 10.2.97) and install it manually, but the problem is still there. It seems that Google Play services somehow stopped being supported by this hardware, or I do not know... I will continue my troubleshooting further, but at the moment, I am also helpless and I would like to ask anyone for a help as well...
Thanks.
The 10.2.98 updated Play Services package is not woking for KitKat (4.4.x). Remove It and reinstall the last working package - the 10.0.84 for KK. And do uncheck Autoupdate in Play Market, or Android OS will download and install the 10.2.98 again.
Shame on Google for this "work"!

I think the same thing but is strange... it seems a decision too bad.
Now I try old version of gapps and without autoupdate the tablet can live but many apps want recent version of GPS...

well, so far it seems that Google has done something in the latest GPS versions that is causing problems not just to us with this tablet, but to many different people on different platforms. Therefore, I believe/hope that Google will fix it soon... Anyway, try to check this thread, people are discussing GPS issue and trying different things to solve it. Let me know if something helps for you, I do not believe I will have time to test it myself today...
Thanks Skubko
The last Opengapps that is ok for 7.1 roms is 20170119 version (gps ver. 10.0.84), disable autoupdate and hope Google fix...

yes, I am planning to do that as a next step. For 6.0 ROM anyway, but also version 10.0.84, that should do the trick.. will see if other google application will want to work with older GPS and for how long... Also, I believe that once I connect to the internet afterwards, GPS will be automatically updated to the latest version (I do not think autoupdate option in google play will make any difference for GPS application)...
try to disable system update on developer menu of Android. (I see it on 7.1 version, don't know if present in previous versions)

I can unfortunately report that this does not stop Google Play Services from updating... Will try the method mentioned in thread by skubko and report back in a bit....

Well, I do have a working tablet again, but unfortunately don't have an exact procedure documented for a fix. I found a couple different threads online where other platforms are having the same issue and it has been tracked down to the latest play services using NEON instructions that are not supported by the older Tegra platform. And, as it's been over a month now, it's not clear if it will be fixed.
The basics of getting things working are to have file manager with root access available to you without wifi. It's possible that exactly what folders need to be created in /data/app/ depends on your Android version. I am working with the latest 7.1.1 build and all instruction I saw to create a folder named com.google.android.gms-1.apk and com.google.android.gms-2.apk did not work. At least not by themselves...on my successful attempt, I created them still, but also created a folder com.google.android.gms-1 as that is where the update came down on my system...so I deleted the existed folder of that name and created an empty one. Again, I don't have an exact procedure...but I will line out some steps that might help someone...
Have working, rooted 7.1.1 install.
Download opengapps from 20170119, phh superuser apk, root file explorer apk.
Factory reset in recovery, install opengapps, wipe cache again for giggles.
Go through setup without setting up wifi, install phh, install root file explorer.
Create folder /data/app/com.google.android.gms-1...maybe the other 2 mentioned above also.
Enable wifi and continue with life. You will have to sideload older versions of some google apps. The latest Google Maps wouldn't work for me...I just searched for the last version before that magic Jan 19th date...that seems to be working fine.
Caveat to this is that this is not exactly what I did to get things working...it is what I think should work. I was actually trying to follow another post that was trying to use a system app remover app to downgrade the google play services...never could get it to work...but stumbled upon something that did work...so I'll lay out those steps...
Have working, rooted 7.1.1 install that has crashing google play services.
Disable wifi
Create the folders mentioned above in /data/app.
Go to Settings->Apps->Google Play Services->Disable. This allowed me to roll back the install of the latest Google play services.
In my case it rolled back to the very previous version..because that is the version I installed from opengapps in recovery...it might roll back to whatever was originally flashed. In that case you can find a 10.0.84 google play services apk...I could never get it to install on mine...but that might have been because I already had a newer version when I was attempting to install.
Enable wifi and possibly sideload some stuff like above...
So, for other Android versions, steps should be similar...perhaps that's when the folders ending in apk will come into play. If there was a reasonably priced >8.5" and <9.5" tablet...preferably with 16:10 aspect ratio and higher pixel density than the Galaxy Tab 8.9 I would buy it...unfortunately such a device doesn't exist. May look into a used Nexus 9...until then it appears I am at least stable again...
Thx guys for your feedback here! Got same problem, that google services stopped working and my tab is crashing nonstop... Its unusable but i think a i will update to android latest rom for next 10 years

How I spent an afternoon
I already tried aosp-5.1.1-p5wifi-20150513 with open_gapps-arm-5.1-pico-20170324 and again with open_gapps-arm-5.1-pico-20170119 as advised here, both resulting in the same bug
Then I installed aosp-6.0-p5wifi-20160131 with open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20170324 over TWRP resulting in the same "google play services has stopped" every few seconds
When I fully wiped the device, reinstalled the above aosp image and added open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20170119 from github, I had the same *** again
Then I decided to go "all-in" and first installed a new version of TWRP from here and followed the guide to install Android N from here and installed the google apps from here and SU from phh.
And it WORKED
Yay
PS: best use adb push to send the files to the device
PS2: you need to select the keyboard first upon entering the wifi credentials
yes, i get solution for that.....i remove google play service updates and registering to beta user, then it's update beta version 10.5.48 and that's works fine now

Update GApps on stock 2.2.1?

My wife recently asked if I could get her Nook up and running again. I updated it to 2.2.1 and got the device running properly again. When I went to add her Google account though it won't work. It appears that the login page is invalid. Some digging online it sounds like Google stopped supporting that version of Android. Is there any way to update the Google apps or spoof the android version to allow it to login? She just wants to be able to use the Google Books app and the library built up there.

Unlikely. The typical means for signature spoofing start with KitKat and the stock OS is Jellybean. Also you would need to root to try anything like that.
I've used microG to do what you suggest on a Nook Tablet but that was with an updated custom ROM and root.
