Hi,
At first i'm using an unrooted nexus s with stock 2.3.4.
A few months ago google released the new music beta app. I also found an update at the market for my nexus s to the new version but since i'm not from the US i'm only interested in the update since i have no access to the cloud yet.
The problem is that since i changed my google account a few weeks ago and therefore did a factory reset there is no update neither for google books nor google music beta at the market.
My personal suggestioni that i probably got an invitation from google to the google music app with my old account but not yet for the new account. So does anyone know how to get an invitation from google or how i can force an invitation? As far as i know there should be an update at the market for every nexus s user even if someone is not in the US.
Feel free for any other suggestions than forcing an update if that's not possible.
I'd really apriciate it if someone can help me.
regards nicii

Today as soon as I opened my Android Market app in my HTC Desire, it showed me that and update for Google Maps version 5.5.0 is available. And I was able to update it without any problem.
But later I did a factory reset of my phone because the Mobile security in my phone was malfunctioning (not because of new google maps) from last few days due to some unknown reasons.
After reset I was expecting to get the google maps updated automatically, but unfortunately it did not. I am afraid why it is so?
I was eagerly waiting for the update form last so many months, and finally when I got it, I lost it even before I could explore it nicely.
Please tell me I you have any idea how can I retrieve my update to version 5.5.0? Or any suggestions related to the matter.
Thanks a lot.
Dunno, go to the market, find Google Maps and tap on update? What am I missing here?
the thing is that it first has to register that you haven't updated google maps - after downloading it today, they registered on the server that you had already recieved it.
best thing to do is to go to market.google.com and try there to download google maps there; it will check the version and when it sees the old version, will override to update!
Got market enabler from market, fake provider like T-Mobile, install as usual.

I noticed many people had had trouble recently from accessing the US Play Store from other countries, after apps such as Market Access and Market Enabler stopped working. I also found that people had trouble using VPNs.
I finally managed to find Pandora, a US-only app in the Play Store, meaning that it worked.
Essentially, I think Google can detect whether you've paid for apps already from a non-US source already on your current Google account. So basically I created a new Google account, moved my IP to a US server using Tunnelbear (available in Google Play), and emulated my SIM to T Mobile US using Market Access (just to be safe). I then went through the normal process of clearing data and force stopping Google Play Services and Google Play Store. Then I opened Play Store and it automatically went to my primary Google account.
All I had to do thereafter was switch to my newly created account and I searched Pandora and found it. I also searched Hulu Plus and found it.
I can also confirm that you can get Google Wallet from the Play Store via this newly created Google account. I emulated my SIM to Sprint US, VPN to the US of course, and edited my build.prop to emulate a Galaxy Nexus. I searched Wallet on the Play Store after clearing data and force stopping and downloaded the latest version. I lost all sound from my phone after emulating a Galaxy Nexus (I am on the i9300), but I found that sound was fine after restoring my build.prop and installing Google Wallet. It now works fine with my original build.prop but just make sure you install it when you're still emulating a Galaxy Nexus.
Hope this helps at least some people.

Thanks !
I'm still trying to find a method for accessing the us store from my old account though....
Would be great if Google would adopt the Apple - Itunes system and allow us to change through any country we desire...

Yeah I know that would be ideal.
Also I can't find any way to access it through my primary Google account. But I'm not too worried about that because it only takes a matter of seconds to switch accounts. I just have to make sure I always use my original account for UK apps and new one for US apps.
Perhaps you could try wiping all payment information from your current Google account? But I don't know if that will work because Google will probably still have a backlog.

When I got my Nexus 5 sound search wasn't available even though it was actually installed on my phone. Using root explorer once I opened the Google ears apk, the widget appeared in the list and I was able to use it. Maybe it's because I'm in Canada, I don't know.
I've been having trouble syncing it with my account. Since Google Music all access became available in Canada yesterday, I figured I'd check to see if I could update Google Sound Search. There wasn't an update, but my phone is running version 1.1.12 and the play store says their version is 1.1.8 but I cannot download it, says already installed.
Anyone have any advice on how I can get the current version on my phone?
So I wasted a good 5 hours trying to get my phone to connect to the Google Play store. It worked perfectly fine up until I decided to update to Lollipop. Thinking that was the problem I tried a bunch of suggestions online like clearing cache of the app and whatnot. Ended up doing a factory reset to see if it fixed the issue and it did not. No matter what account I tried to log into it would always say it could not connect even though I could use the internet fine on the phone. Ended up trying to log into my main email address on my old phone and found it was doing the same thing. I wake up this morning and my brother tells me he hacked in-app purchases on his phone and can get any in-game item that requires real world money purchases for free. After telling him he's an idiot and could possibly get in trouble with the law and his accounts banned I then realized when he took over my Droid RAZR he has always been using my Google Play account because he is too create his own Google account.
Thus leading me to the conclusion that my Google account has been banned from the play store. I've look all around in my e-mail and can't find any signs of it being banned.
Does anyone here know how I can figure out of this is truly the case? Sorry for the wall of text... and thanks in advance!
Hi
Check this thread for list of known Google Play errors and their solutions.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733038
If possible ,try rolling back to older firmware version or reflash newer version to fix any possible firmware errors.
ALso ,you can sign up on forums and post in Q/A section and see if it's a issue related to OTA

Hi everyone;
This last week I've desperately been trying to install the google play store and google family of apps into a honor phone that I bought in China on September 2018. I've looked through and through around the web trying to find a solution that worked; installing the GSM app, installing everything by myself (downloading the APKs one by one from APK mirror - Google play services, services framework, contact sync, etc.), giving every kind of permit and right to them, but when it comes to using them, they won't function properly. Google play store doesn't get past the first screen (won't let me click the green "start session" button), Gmail will open like it's the first time I use it every time, and won't let me link a gmail account (again, button doesn't work - if I try to link a hotmail account it does), and so on.
I feel like this is a nice phone for the money and there should be a solution - and so I resort to you guys. Has any one of you dealt with a similar issue before? Any ideas as to what might work? Android version is 8.1 if that helps in any way.
Kind regards,
