Disable security checks in Google play

You mean Google Play Store? Couldn't find option like this but already had store disabled. I am still getting app not installed every time I try .apk

I know you can probably remove play services from user 0 using adb but how do you get microg up and running with the location addons and such? If you're leaving google services on there, it not working and still using it. Thanks

I think it's not possible without root and signature spoofing have to be enable on the Rom wich is not the case for stock Rom. You can check with the signature spoofing checker app on Fdroid.

[Solved] Play services update too big?

Hello
My only phone, the N1 is driven by ev_passion_nightly-2014.08.17. Thanks to Mounts2SD I thought storage capacity limits shouldn't bother me in future: Internal memory says 182 MB free, SD card 2.6 GB free (it's a 4 GB card).
This week Gmail updated to 5.0 - with this update comes the need to update google play services (6.1.88 (1557022-034)). I wasn't able to update (tried play store and .apk) the services due to "Not enough memory available"-Error.
Is anybody experiencing the same?
Regards

Yes, I just tried to update and it also failed due to "insufficient storage available". I did a backup of the old version and unistalled it. After that reinstalling from the Play Store worked fine.
I had a similiar issue with Dropbox last week though and just uninstalling it wasn't enough. I still got "ISA" error when trying to install from store again but installing the apk (copied from another device) went well.
I was just able to uninstall the updates of play services (now I'm on 4.0.34) a full uninstall doesn't seem to be possible that easy. Unfortunately the "ISA" error remains

No Superuser access? Which ROM?
ev_passion_nightly-2014.08.17 - I just don't know how to do it

So if you have Superuser you can use Link2SD to freeze/uninstall any app.
Just make sure that you cancel the file system selection dialog (ext2/ext3/ext4/...) because you are already using Mounts2SD. Even without the linking feature it's a great app manager.
Grant Superuser to Link2SD so you can manage all apps. Search for Google Play services in the list, then press and hold it, choose "Uninstall".
Installing it from Play Store should work again.
If not, download it from APKMirror. I checked the MD5 so it's legit.
Thanks, uninstalling worked now. Installation however still isn't working. APK still complains about storage, and Play Store can't be accessed - it stops at an account selection popup.

Are you sure that Mounts2SD is working correct? What does "Storage Threshold" say? Which content types are "green"?
Try to "Clear all app caches" with Link2SD and set "Install location" to "Automatic" in the settings.
Mounts2SD should work correctly (see attachments). I've cleared the app cache and set location to automatic. "ISA"-Error is still present.
Yes, Mounts2SD seems to be fine. It's strange though that your error still persists when mine was gone after that.
Are these directories still present? You can check it with ES File Explorer or any other file manager with root access.
/data/data/com.google.android.gms
/data/app-lib/com.google.android.gms-1
What if you try to install the previous version?
/data/data/com.google.android.gms is gone, the other on is still present. Installing the previous version doesn't work too (ISA-Error).

Rename it (to something like com.google.android.gms.old) and try to install again.
After renaming installation of the new version was possible and Gmail 5.0 is running. Thanks a lot for your help!

I'm glad it worked :good: You can delete the renamed folder now.

Help needed re-installing system app (non root)

Hi all,
I'd make a silly mistake earlier and I need help. This is what happened:
1) download and installed an apk from apk mirror (Google Phone);
2) the apk installed over the app already installed on my phone;
3) when opening the app, it says "device not supported";
4) download the correct apk but unable to install as app is already installed (the earlier installed apk);
My phone is not rooted (64/128). Any ideas on how to reinstall the correct app without getting the "device not supported" message?
Thank you and any help is greatly appreciated.

Can you try to disable the app and then to enable it back?
There isn't an option to disable the app as it is a system app. However, I'd managed to get this sorted. My solution - factory reset the phone! All is well now, despite the fact that I was unavailable for nearly an hour downloading and reconfiguring all my daily apps
Thanks, anyways.

You can disable system apps, you can't uninstall them

For the app should be enough.
that's what i always do and it still ends up updating , even with the detach module, maybe i'll have to disable it all together :l
That's werid stopping auto update from the play store should stop all that

Well, it doesn't. I'm experiencing the same.
i am using it on pie. is really frustrating the app update by itself.
SWITCH OFF AUTO UPDATE IN PLAYSTORE ARE NOT WORKING AT ALL.
detach in TB is NOT WORKING also.
but version on nougat doesn't have this issue, maybe google did something fishy on PIE?
I guess you should ask for help in the dedicated threads for Youtube Vanced instead of creating a new thread for this.

Same in Oreo. Never had problem with Nougat.
I installed it just like the OP, it would detach but play store would attach youtube back on the update list by itself every night. When the phone is restarted the detach module in magisk will detach it again, but the next morning, play store would put it back on the list.
use service disabler

Disabling the auto-update from Play Store works fine for me. I've been using Vanced for months and no such issues.

Your link is dead. However, you inspired me.
Which service in Google Play Service should be disable?

Read the part in the first post under:

"Explanation of the (Ad)Vanced options of the official installer:"
After thatd download the files from the 3# post:

Use the Mediafire host. in the Installer folder you'll find all the necessary files.

I've been trying to figure out this issue for a while.
Basically issue for me is on Google Pixel XL and now Pixel 3 XL and my friends Moto x4, all on both Android Oreo and Pie... Using Magisk repo install and uninstalling stock YouTube, and then adding enable_detach empty file in cache folder in root along with turning off "Enable auto update" in Google play store for YouTube . Usually this works for a few weeks but every now and then it ignores it and updates itself and turns on auto update without user explicitly allowing it. (Says YouTube was just updated).
I can easily fix it by uninstalling updates again but my friend doesn't know how to do this easily. I also tried to remove YouTube forcefully with titanium backup from system app and detaching months ago but that caused a lot more problems. Currently it gives option to attach to market forced despite it still showing up in market saying update (and auto update off for it)
I wanted to understand the plz and settings.sh options if using specifically Magisk method 1 (Magisk repo). Or are those only if using the other methods under magisk and/or root only option (no Magisk)?
Use the Sudohide xposed module.
This Module will prevent apps from detecting other installed apps on your device. Settings are done on per app basis.
Steps to hide VancedYT (A) from Play Store (B):
1. Select app A in the main list a new list view will be launched
2. Tick the checkbox next to app B in the newly opened list view
3. Press apply to save and back to exist
4. Restart luncher or reboot the phone.
Slow down.
Detach using titanium backup WORKS
For me I could only press "attach to playstore"
So I did. After I got button detach.
It worked and removed it

Not installing from Unknown Sources

Gone and bought a locked Pixel 4 XL from my carrier and willing to accept no root but so far struggling to get my apps from my old phone without TiBu.
My problem at the moment is trying to get any app to install an apk.
I've enabled the ability in the special permissions part of settings but cannot get any app to install an APK.
Attempted an APK backed and restore with Solid Explorer and that failed.
You have to give each individual app permission to install from unknown sources. Whether it be installing an apk from solid explorer or chrome.

I had done. In the end I did a fresh install of all the apps, downloading from the play store and weirdly the problem solved itself.

Why do you try to install good lock app directly (manually via file explorer)?
Try to install it via Galaxy store.
And if it does not work, check in settings - biometric data and security - install unknown apps, that your files explorer is listed there to be allowed to install apk files directly.
