Question Help Needed With Bizarre SM-G998B Issue - Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra

I've been given an S21 Ultra, but it seems to be a demonstration unit, so there's no Google Play Store access, which means I can only load apps onto it that are found in the Galaxy Store.
I've tried to side load the Google Play Store APK, but once it's installed, it won't open. Instead it says "No app can perform this action" and it doesn't show up in apps for me to enable permissions.
If I try to load it from browser, this device doesn't show up in my devices, even though I'm logged into it and my email and other google services seem to work.
Is there any other way to install the play store or flash the unit so that it's just like a normal retail unit. I noticed in the downloads there's an APK file that's called: "com.samsung.rms.retailagent.global_9.3.20180905-20180905inAPI21".
Clicking that just opens a blank black screen and doesn't seem to do anything else.
Any other suggestions would be hugely appreciated. Thank you!

Try factory reset, or flash original Samsung FW with odin.

Thank you, I'll look up odin, not flashed a phone in a few years.

[Q] Need help to root the new Teclast x98 Air II

Hello!
I just got my new Teclast x98 air ii. Out of the box, Gapps suite is very instable and Google Play doesn't work at all. After reading several forums and tried basic tricks like clearing cache, uninstalling updates, etc... It is still not working. The last thing to try is to install Play store and Play Services in the system/apps space, but obviously I need the tablet to be rooted. Again, after reading a lot on rooting Android devices, I no longer sure if the rooting process is CPU, hardware or OS dependent.
So, is that possible to root this Chinese tablet and if yes, using what tool?
Hi mate ive just received mine . also having the same problems as you. Tried resetting to factory defaults , changed the language from chinese to english . It looked like the play store was going to work . Then it just forced closed . Now wont work at all . Tried doint the ota updtae , but doesnt work . cant find anything on the internet as the tablet is pretty new. If only i could get play store working . hmmm . Its seems a great tablet .Screens spot on and it seems pretty fast .
I signed up to say that other people are also having the Google Play problem, and though I haven't received mine I'm probably going to have that problem, too.
What a bummer. ):
Subscribed. I have one of these on order and found out about the Play Store issue. I am wanting to run Android and not Windows 8.1. Hopefully there is an update soon.
Edit: Just saw this. Anyone with an Air II care to try?
https://twitter.com/srsroot/status/527864446400856066
Yeah I've seen that on twitter . however CPUz claims the tablet is already rooted . I used amazon app store for that . hope we get this sorted soon .
Yes I thought it was already rooted too but I tried running apps that need root and it is not rooted. I verified with Rootchecker and it confirmed...
Now I removed updates on Play Store and Play Services but some apps does not work anymore... like Hangout...
same issue here
Hey guys,
Just gotbmine this morning and have the same issue,
play store browse well but crashes when trying to download
YouTube won't even launch
ota update not working
Plus have regular freezes with the internet browser. Hope we can find a fix soon cause otherwise the tablet is pretty good !
I don't see the point of having an ota app as no one can get it working. Also when my tablet arrived the playstore wasnt fully installed . when I done a factory reset everything installed and had the play store icon on the screen. . still didn't work tho . .. The manufacturer must know the play store has problems , that's why its disabled . its a good tablet ,just wish everything worked as it should .
Ota is working. Downloading now . will let you all know how it goes ..
Still not downloaded . 6 hours later , keeps restarting . grrrr . there's a new guide on a French forum to update the firmware . looks pretty complicated . can't post links yet .

Same here. Downloaded and installed the OTA update to 4.4.4 after two attempts.
Downloaded gapps 4.4.4 tried to install it via the teclast update app that is on the tablet. No luck, message said could not verify update.
So I renamed it to update.zip and tried to install via restart and bootloader but no luck.
I suppose I could manually move the files but even then it may not work and that would be tedious.
Oh well, still a good tablet and amazon apps work just fine.
Also 64 GB microSD card won't work but my 16 GB microSD card works just fine.
Tried any other ROMS yet?
Hi All,
I've had the tablet a week now and just updated to 4.4.4 using the Teclast App that was pre-installed. Since the update I've had a few issues with video stuttering and play store and youtube still don't work. So far though I am pretty impressed with the tablet. Still wondering though has anyone tried a different rom on this yet?
-P
Same -- need to know how to root
Having the same problem with the Google play store crashing. It only seems to crash when it attempts to download apps/updates, and the crash logs point to the download manager (i.e., the eng.yankendi.20140922.165954 version of DownloadProvider.apk).
Need root to replace it with some other version -- would that even work or is the download manager a device-specific app?
Beware malware sites
Norton says site is a known malicious site, so not going to bother downloading from there. I have the Air II and been researching the Play Store issue for about a week - no answers yet. None of the simple fixes work, looking at moving the Gapps to a different folder as suggested at one forum - problem is I need root for that, and rooting this thing is just as big of a challenge. There's other sites that claim to have root .bat files but they too install malware on your computer - had it happen to me just today. That's the problem with this sorta thing, the a-holes out there know how desperate people can get to find anything that'll give them root so they plant malware in their "solutions". Anyway I'm gonna keep trying, first have to get root figured out.
*EDIT* Sorry was replying to post #4 and the srsroot link posted there
Play Store fix??
Found this in another thread here at XDA. Anyone brave enough to try it??

Here's the post:
Google Play Store Fix
Anyone having issues with Google Play Store - this applies to both Air 3G with the latest 2.0.1 update (will post more information later) and Air II - please apply this fix.
Your OS should be rooted in order for this to work.
- Download the files from here.
- Copy the .apk files to a folder on your microSD card.
- Go to Settings > Apps and uninstall Google Play Store.
- Install using the supplied .apk's the following (in this order): Google Play Services, Google Play Store and Link2SD.
- Go to Link2SD, find Google Play Store > Actions > Convert into system app.
- When the conversion is complete, reboot the tablet.
You should find that Google Play store works now, if you still have issues clear ALL it's data and re-enter your account information.
Will post later when the v2.0 (Android 4.4.4) ROM upload is complete with instructions on how to flash it.
I am using it right now and after it was installed it performed an OTA and now I am at v2.0.1_20141105.
I would but... Howto root it?

I have this same question. This post has a link to a toolbox for rooting, but I can't get it to work on the Air II. Anyone have any success?
Edit: This one works for rooting. I followed the procedure and Google Play store and apps are now working.

I rooted with the Chinese version of VRoot (your link) and it seemed to work. I installed a root checking app and it says I have root access. However when I try to convert the PlayStore into system app I got an error from Link2SD telling it doesn't have root access.
Any clue?
thanks
edit: actually it seems vRoot only supports 4.4.2 for now, I made the update to 4.4.4 so it is probably the reason root doesn't work

*My tablet: Teclast X98 Air II WiFi*
I wouldn't try using the download provided, only because the download and the instructions given for it don't quite match up. The post says "copy the .apk files" however the download is an *.exe - why would you need to execute a downloaded file to get *.apks? The guy makes it look like it's a zip file - note the .7z in the file name - but that's not its real extension, it's an executable. It's like someone is trying to fool you by making you think the files are zipped up so you'll start the *.exe. I may be wrong but I prefer being too careful rather than sorry later on. Plus the *.apks are easy enough to find - they're all over the Internet.
Having said all that, I still tried the guy's idea but with my own files and I think it works. Well I say "I think" because a) I finally have Play Store working, after days of trying every idea in this thread and what I found Googling, and b) I'm not quite 100% sure of the /exact/ steps I took to finally get Play to work because I was doing so many things at once.
But from memory here are the last few steps I tried before Play miraculously started working (I already had Link2SD installed):
1) Installed latest Play Services *.apk
2) Installed latest Play Store *.apk
3) Opened Link2SD and converted BOTH Play Store & Play Services to system apps (when I was just converting Play Store it never worked)
4) Reboot
The only way I'll ever be sure of exactly what's needed is to wipe my tablet and start over using just these steps, which I just might do since the tablet is so new. However someone else out there may want to give this a try just to see if I'm right about the steps needed. And by the way VRoot worked perfectly for rooting, I used the version for PCs (rooting your tablet from your PC). The supplied SU app for VRoot works fine, I don't read Chinese but all you need to do is check a box and tap a button for every SU request.
Hope this helps, I'll report back with more info as I get the chance.

Can't log into sideloaded Google Play on unrooted 5th gen Fire (5.1.1)

I know we are still waiting on a potential root update for the 5.1.1 firmware, which is how my black friday fire was shipped, unfortunately. However, I have sideloaded google play and google frameworks successfully (I think) via rootjunky's zip. The problem is, I cannot update google play services (Fire tells me it is out of date) without logging into the Play store, but I cannot log into the play store. Whenever I put in my credentials, I get an error that says "There was a problem communicating with Google Servers, please try again later".
If I cant update the framework through Play, or log into play at all, I'm pretty sunk. I have noticed some people referencing the ability to use the Play store on 5.1.1. so somebody must have gotten in successfully. Anybody have any ideas on how to fix, or get this error and find a solution?
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...es-8-4-89-2428711-230-2-android-apk-download/
sideload this apk. this is the latest play services for our device. it's signed so it should install right over the old version.

New to this and looking for clarification
I just received my Fire today which promptly upgraded itself to 5.1.1. All I want to do right now is install Google Play Store. I've downloaded the GAPPS file linked below (8.4.89), but now I'm hoping for a link for the RootJunky sideloader to complete the process. I'm a super newbie, so any instructions past just a simple link would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks for the link! Probably what I was looking for, however, issue was solved by running the batch file in the rootjunky ADB zip a second time which probably gave me the same result.

If you haven't found your solution yet, here is the rootjunky link: http://rootjunkysdl.com/?device=Amazon Fire 5th gen
You download and extract the amazon fire 5th gen zip to a folder, connect your fire (make sure to have the necessary device/adb drivers installed), and follow the promps. FYI I had to run it twice to get Play to work properly, but I'm all set up now, don't even need root really (Although, a replacement launcher would be nice, I think the fire home launcher is a piece of crap).
The ad-removal didn't work with the Rootjunky script, but a separate ADB command got rid of them.

Install the drivers from Amazon here https://developer.amazon.com/appsan...etting-up-your-kindle-fire-tablet-for-testing
On tablet
We need to enable Developer Options
Go to Settings>Device Options>Tap on Serial Numbers seven times it'll say "You are now Developer"
This puts new category underneath Serial Number, Developer options so go into that
Toggle Enable ADB to the on position
Then plug the tablet in to pc
Then visit the thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/general/installing-google-framework-playstore-t3216122
Download the file in one, and unzip it.
Ignore it's drivers (many seem to have had difficulties with them) and you won't get any joy from the parts of the Batch file that block ads or updates, they won't do any harm, but they won't do anything well at all really so don't worry about them.
run 1-Install-Play-Store.bat
You can check the drivers you have installed work as it loads up, if it has you'll see your serial number on the left of the screen
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
List of devices attached
Gxxxserialxnumberxxxxxxxx device
If it shows, all well and good, run option 2 on menu screen and should be good to go.
It'll say it's blocked the ads, it hasn't.
Thank you guys. Can't believe how easy that was. One thing though - I downloaded the newer GAPPS file, but then the batch file never asked me for its location and therefore installed the default older one. It seems to work perfectly, and asked me to update Play Services first thing, which I suppose gave me the exact same result.
I appreciate the help very much.
I had same problem and used an apk. Loader got google play services and games but when I went to login to google play it just says checking info. I let it run for hours and nothing. It's been a week. No option of plugging into a PC please help I am up for any fresh ideas

Play Store not working on mi5 with Chinese dev MIUI 8 ROM

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

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!

I'm new to this so I hope this is where this post goes apologise in advance. So I rooted my note 9 and everything works well apart from netflix intact I'm not getting the usual errors I installed netflix from apkmirror and updated to current version from the play store. I can login to netflix and scroll for the movies and series but when I click to play one it is just stuck on "loading" no error is given. I tried hiding root ect and found no help. Anyone any ideas?

Seriously I don't know what is the thread about but perhaps you could find something there.

thanks for the reply i tried the option in that link but no help. If i can make it clear for you so i rooted my phone and after rooting netflix is having problems playing anything. I do not get any error's like other people instead i can login and see everything but when i try to play something it just gets stuck on "loading" and never actually loads
for anyone having the same problems as me i found a fix. Go into Magisk and go to downloads and scroll to the bottom and download Liboemcrypto disabler and reboot phone
Another way is using a root explorer go to system/vendor/lib then find liboemcrypto.so and change it to .bak at the end and save. The magisk module probably does the same thing.
Don't those root privileges get lost after each power cycle?
