Hey guys.
I've been searching for quite a while but can't find a satisfying solution for this. I managed to update my fake MIUI shop rom to the official MIUI 8 dev rom. I am currently using the Chinese version as this was the only version I was able to flash as my bootloader is still locked.
I am now trying to install the Google apps. First way to try was downloading the Google installer v2 and let it run. Then I ended up in a loop where the Google apps stop responding repeatedly every some seconds. I then tried to factory reset and start from scratch. Same issue. I then updated the Google play store and play services from apk mirror. Now the error message is gone, but I still end up with an unusable play store.
It shows checking info now and is stuck at that stage. I tried emptying all cache and data. Doesn't help.
Do you guys have any idea?

I had to flash a dev china fastboot rom android 6 based .
Installed the 6 apks to enable google play services used them and updated them ... They auto update ( google playstore and google play services for sure) .
After all that was done i ota updated to miui based on android 7 and everything worked fine since the google play services were already there.
Thank you sir. That's what i did as well now. Luckily they gave me permissions to unlock the phone by now so i was able to flash the latest global rom which seems to work better with Google apps

Thats great for you BUT many of us are just not that skilled nor have we the opportunity to invest in all that is required in learning the skills for TWRP, Magisk and flashing ROMs etc.
Nothing offical from Xiaomi despite daily searches online by me...[can anyone confirm different???].
So we are frustrated and stuck with a Gapp-less Xiaomi Mi5 running MIUI 8.2.2 "stable-f*cknot!!" China ROM].
This is 4+ wks for me and Xaomi are so close to losing me and as a brand advocate after a 3 years, 2 mobiles otherwise happy relationship.
it is the same to me. and i have no idea
Hi everyone,
I bought my mi5 last year spring directly in China with Chinese stock rom. I used a frequently used Google installer from the official xiaomi app store. It worked perfectly fine until a month ago I discovered play store didn't updated itself since long time. It was stuck in "waiting for wifi". Only already installed apps could be updated. I tried allowing mobile data, clear caches and data from play store and Google play service, downloading updates manually for them both. But all in all it didn't help. Yesterday I tried force stop "google services framework" on an internet advice and that was stupid. Practically bricked play store "error retrieving data from server ［RH-01］"
Atm I trying other Chinese Google installers.

hey thank you for your fast reply.
yeah that advice on the internet is common, but only solves if you wanna download via mobile data.
at the mean time i installed goplaycn. it seems to be the latest successful installer on the chinese market and looks pretty professional. It has even a deinstall google function.
here the list of the gapps version what it will download for you today:
google play services 10.2.99 (44-148249840)
google services framework 7.0
google play store 7.6.08.N-all [0] [PR] 149245622
google account manager 7.0
the new problem i got now: "stuck at checking info" same as this thread's Author.
i wanna try download all updates manually from apkmirror
Hi again,
i tried the manual updates and it didnt work. After checking goplaycn again I noticed an entry note. it says "for mi5 user who got stuck in checking info ... please enable in your google account installing less secure apps". I did it and it wouldnt work either or i misunderstood there something.
Anyway i found a pretty interesting thread on the chinese MIUI forum. The thread handles exact our problem on the same device and the thread was posted in march this year.
The solution is you have to root your phone and enable "setenforce permissive" and then use a chinese google installer.
Unfortunately it is completly in chinese http://www.miui.com/thread-7561698-1-1.html
i havent tried it myself, but apparently it has been successfully tested by many ppl. i will do it later maybe.
hi Tetrahybrid, did you ve fixed your problem? I have the same issue with my mi5 in miui 8.5.2. google store is locked at "checking info".
Problem Is From "host" File
Do It:
1.Root Via SuperSU SR5
2.Use Some Root Browser App Like Root Explorer,Or ES File Explorer
3.Go To /system/etc/host Delete "host"
4.Reboot
Your Problem Is Fixed Now!

Hi there, recently bought a Mi 8 Global Version and having some issues with it, i've resolved most of them but this one I can't seem to fix.
Whenever System Apps Updater needs to update an app, it just can't for some reason, I have no idea why. The app that needs to be updated just sits as "paused" in the screen, and in the downloads section it just keeps saying "Try again"
Images shown here: https://i.imgur.com/h7okHEQ.png https://i.imgur.com/xzd2fR0.png
I've tried all kinds of permissions, settings, uninstalling updates to the apps, clearing it's data and cache, even formatting/resetting my phone to stock, allow install from unknown sources etc. and it still does this.
I'm on MIUI 10.0.3.0 - Global Version, Bootloader still locked.
Same problem happen with my mi max 3.
Had the same problem with K9 mail but after flashing a global rom, everything worked fine. I don't use WhatsApp though.
So finally i got my Mate 20 PRO, and i am excited to try it for games. But i cannot download any apps from google playstore. My internet connection is stable and good. I wonder why i can't download any apps on google playstore. I tried clearing the cache of Playstore and play services. I also tried resetting the phone and nothing new happened. Can someone help me? Thanks.
What other applications have you got?
With my last phone the mate 9, I installed apkpure, then for a few days nothing would download or update. I couldn't even download a image from Google. I tried everything, then I thought I would uninstall recently added applications. As soon as I removed apkpure everything started running fine again.
just picked up a chinese Mi 9 version. I just found out the hard way that xiaomi no longer supports flashing the global ROM to the chinese version. Bue when I went to install google play, I ran into a hicup. The google installer app errors. it installs the first two frameworks just fine, but it errors on the 3rd. Google Play Services apparently is already installed and at a more recent version.
I manually downloaded a google play apk and got that running ok, but does anyone know what the last apks the installer would be installing are?

Mi9 has google framework preinstalled.
All you need to do is enable it in Settings and install Play Store apk.

I've also just had a problem with this. I bought a new Chinese Mi 10 lite zoom about two weeks ago, spent some time figuring out how to install google play, got it to work, but since it updated a few days ago to the MIUI 12.1.3Stable version, play has since stopped working. I tried the google installer app and have the same problem: it errors on the 3rd and I get a message saying there was a problem parsing the package....
I'm not a developer or really much of a computer guy (but have made it this far!), any help to solve this issue would be appreciated
I have installed both recent version of microG and YT Vanced (non-root versions). YouTube Vanced just gets stuck at the boot page (the YouTube Logo) forever. I tried reinstalling several times. The exact same version and procedure worked on my previous OnePlus 6 perfectly.
Edit: I did a factory reset and reinstalled without changing any settings and yet it didn't work.
Is anyone else facing this too, and are there any fixes?
Especially ROG 2 Indian variant users, please comment if it works for y'all.
Edit: It actually takes forever to load the app the first time. Wasn't this way on my other phones but I just had to wait a couple of minutes. It works now!
Thanks to the awesome XDA community anyways. Y'all very supportive.

This might do something with battery saving and background restrictions maybe? Although I tried removing all battery and memory optimisations for those two apps alone.

Oh okay and thank you. Looks like it's some battery and memory optimisation of other apps messing up with YT Vanced. I probably need to reset some things.
Working fine here.

I did a complete factory reset and installed YT Vanced without changing anything, yet still gets stuck. You guys are using the non-rooted version right? Can you please share the procedure to install it? I just directly installed both APKs without disabling YouTube or anything and this worked fine on my OnePlus 6.

Make sure to install microG first and then YouTube Vanced.... installing YouTube Vanced first crashes it...

Be sure to install the latest micro. Also try after resetting your device and then install first the micro and youtubevanced, check if its working. If yes then maybe conflict with other apps you installed

Thank you guys, and yes, I did install microG first then YouTube Vanced next. I did that right after factory reset, so there were no other extra apps installed. I also removed all memory and battery optimisations for both of the apps, tried disabling YouTube and Chrome, yet no difference.
Can't live without Vanced lol
Re download micro and vanced
My phone is running Vance well after i uninstalled micro.
All working fine here, vanced 14.21.54 and micro g 0.2.6.17455
Note, 0.2.6 was needed instead of 0.2.4 versions
I used the 0.2.6 version only. Redownloaded and Reinstalled many times. Tried installing only Vanced without microG. Still no luck.
Is there any specific YT Vanced version for this phone?
I just got the common one in the XDA site.
I've got the Indian ROG 2 variant. Maybe something got to do with that?

You mentioned you didn't disable the original YouTube app.
Try deleting Vanced and MicroG and make sure you clear data before deleting them
Then open original YouTube app , then close it and then disable the app entirely. Then try installing Vanced and MicroG

Thank you. I tried this and yet no luck. I tried several combos and still the same result. Tried all these right after factory reset too. I'm starting to feel this has something to do with the ROG Indian ROM or something.

I didn't do anything special using imported tencent version from China. Just the regular app from xda. Haven't disabled the standard version either.. Not sure what to suggest

Well thanks a lot to all of you guys. I finally got it to work!
The boot screen actually took a couple of minutes to get through. I just left it on the Vanced boot screen unknowingly for a long time and was opened the time I came back xD.
IDK what caused the delay but anyways now I can have a peace of mind. Thank you all!

Without hijacking this thread, could someone point me into the general direction of how to microG this phone ?
I'm used to nanodroid, but I haven't figured how I am supposed to deal with pre installed gapps' roms.
