My brother is having issues setting up his phone with Google home mini.
When he uses the Google app to try and do it, it complains that it isn't compatible with it but he can't update the app because his device isn't compatible with the new version.
I told him to try and install Google Assistant in the hope he could use that to set it up. He installed Google Assistant Go (maybe some sort of lite version) but when he tried to run it it instantly closed. I got him to switch off the phone, try clearing the apps cache but neither worked.
Has anyone any ideas on how to get the Google Home Mini working?
Thanks

Woke up yesterday morning and I was unable to use any app google or gmail related. Every time I try to open the play store it instantly closes out. "Google" is no longer under the accounts tab in the settings. Can't log into any apps using google because they just crash when I try. Have tried EVERYTHING. Cleared cache and data and uninstalled updates for all google related apps hoping it would help. Nothing. ( yes I tried rebooting it). I have now factory restarted/wiped my phone 3 times and every time I get to the start up wizard I get "verizon location agent has failed" then I get "google play services has failed". Even without completing the startup wizard google and the play store still don't work. Called verizon. Then google. Then Motorola. They couldn't fix anything. Don't know what to do can't use a lot of my apps and I have no contacts just numbers.

Are you on a stock system? Or did you flash a system image with Mofo?

I'm on stock. Only thing I've done was remove some bloatware with rootjunky's program he put up. That was a while ago but I put it all unbloacked the bloatware and it worked for a couple minutes then stopped when I tried to update an app.

I would restore back to stock and see if the problem persists. If it is solved then at that point re-root with Mofo. If it does not fix itself bring the device to Verizon and they will factory reset it then realize thats not the problem. At which point they will replace the device for free.
Hello,
I have very strange problem :s
Ok, so let's start at the begining. I was using Viper ROM for like almost a year and everything was working great (devs tnx again for the ROM). Now i got new phone and give the m7 to my mom. I wiped the data in TWRP and restart the phone. Then i sign in google with her mail and start downloading apps. At first everything was OK but then second update for chrome come in and google play crashed. I also tried to install candy crush but after confirming permissions google play crashed. Then i installed sports tracker and it seems to be working until I started new workout - the app crashed. I also tried to install runtastic. App installed but after facebook log-in crashed... At this point I dont know whats happening to m7 :s
Things I already tried:
1) I wiped everything, reinstall the viper rom (again no success at the google play)
2) I flashed two other ROMs (crdoid - 6.01 and HD revolution 93) again google play was crashing and also sports tracker + runtastic (now I even tried 4 more sport tracking apps - all crashing :s)
3) Now im back at viper 9.0.0 FIX and google play still crashing.
If you have any ideas what this could be please let me know.
P.S. Some apps like evernote, es file manager, facebook... can install and they are working great without google play crash.
and also i tried fixes like this: http://forums.androidcentral.com/spr...i-pull-up.html
Only sport tracking app that works is google fit.

Your issues with Play store, reminds me of 2 x similar incidents, i had with my old Note devices.
Think it was Note 3 and my Note 4. Not sure.
Unfortunately It was a few years back!
eg.
When i tried to download, an apps update etc and
app size was eg 2mb or 5 mb.. etc I struggled to download.Very frustrating!
Eventually after a week or 2, maybe 3.
i was able to pinpoint
the the "suspect"
(Unfortunately i cannot remember clearly ,
but it was either, that i had sideloaded
wrong updated version of Play services apk
(Cleaning Play services cache did not help.)
or it was an Xposed /Xposed model.
(So phone was also rooted)
Anyway ,
i then decided to factory reset and Playstore
was working fine again.
Bottom line is
you can either look for the "suspect"?
causing this.
( I know there was a few threads about similar issues with Playstore, on XDA... way back then ! )
or save yourself from the frustration it's causing?
and try a "clean" Factory reset.!
Good luck
Have you tried cleaing the cache data in the internal storage? That usually helps with this sorta issue.
Tried that not working in either what you said

Is it on wifi or data?
Reset router modem.
Do other apps lag like YouTube or Netflix.
Download speed bad in your area.
Uninstall GP updates and try to reinstall them or apk from web.
Is updating apps through wifi only ?
Clear out all pending updates and restart device.
Do you have another device or friends to see if it's the same problem on theirs too for your region.
Try a different proxy.
Just throwing some ideas around!!
Go into your Google settings and see if you have it to update using wifi only I personally always turn auto updates off.. I had this problem with my Note 8 when I 1st got it. How I fixed it was I went into settings and went to apps and cleared the cache and data on Google play services and playstore and foreclosed them and then went to accounts and removed my Google account and restarted my phone.. when my phone rebooted I went to the playstore and had to login fresh again and that fixed the problem.
I fixed it by factory resetting phone. Thankfully I backed it all up

Hi all.
My son has a Fire 7, 9th gen and we installed the Google Play store so he could get all of the apps. Months later, he went into parental controls and turned it on and when we turned them off again all of his apps now have disappeared and we cannot get them onto the home screen again.
If I go into Apps and Games in setting I can see that all of the old apps are still on the tablet but there is no way for me to launch directly from there or get them back. I have tried the force stop and deleting the cache to no avail. I have tried other launchers and nothing will work.
In fact, if I go back into the Google Store and try to download any of the apps again it will download but then say it cannot install. I know that a hard reset will help but he has one particular app that he needs the data for which is why I am trying everything I can to get access back to that one particular application.
Is there any way to do this? Or even to download the data for the app and reset the tablet then put the data file back on when it is working again?
Any ideas are appreciated. Thank you.
