Miui.us.2.7.20 no goggle/play store

hi all,
Since I am a new member I can only post question here about Miui instead of in the developer's forum. I flashed the Miui 2.7.20 a few days ago, everything looks/works great, except for 1 thing: I cannot specify my goggle account and the Play Store does not work.
I followed the instruction to the dot:
1) wiped everything (data/factory reset, cache, dlvlink, formatted /boot)
2) installed the rom (install from zip)
3) rebooted into recovery
4) installed gapps
5) reboot into Miui
6) installed play store apk,
but under setting->account, I cannot specify a goggle login, the option is simply not there.
any idea how to fix this problem?
I just rooted my P500 a few weeks and this is my 2nd ICS ROM that I am toying with.
thanks in advance,

Be sure you flashed a ICS gapps version. After that, check if you have a gmail app. Open it and you should be prompted to enter an account. after you enter the account the playstore icon will appear.

You have to flash gapps . There is no need of installing from apk

It seems that you are running a MOD Play Store?
I have 4 different recommendations,try them, might they help you.
1.Do Factory Format, and while startup, Make sure to uncheck the BACKUP YOUR APP DATA AND SETTINGS and after giving your E-mail address.
2. Try to remove existing account and add another account on Play Store. ( Remove old one completely )
Then Reboot and add your previous account, check if play store is fine or not.
3. Check whether you are using a PROXY, if yes then remove it from going to APN (Access point Name)
4. If nothing works, try to Flash a JB 4.2.2 GAPPS while going into CMW recovery (wipe cache and Dalvik cache too, before flashing gapps)
Done, Hope one will work.

Play Store doesn't load icons and images

Here's my problem, I've flashed the latest gapps on my m8 and everything works just fine, however, I noticed that play store are not showing images and icons for all the apps. It load just a few of them randomly. And screenshots NEVER loads.
I still can download and update things.
For reference, I checked the " Hosts " file and this came up on the top:
#http://htcui.com

64.233.188.102 smtp.gmail.com[...]
It happens both on WiFi and mobile data.
Already performed a "clear data" in both play store and Google play services, sign-out from my play store account, wipe dalvik/data via recovery. Etc.
Any help? Thanks in advance.

I'm using a rom based on the stock sense's lollipop
There's really any significant changes.
My model is the Chinese one (M8t) if that matters.
When I flashed the gapps using the original rom it didn't happened, however, it was the FULL gapps, containing a lot of bloat. This time around I used a minimal package, containing only the essential for play store to work (play services etc).
Thanks.

ok so there is two ways
1- the flashing process didn't go well
2-gapps problem
actually i use minimal gapps for android 5.1.1 and i don't have any problems
so you have the following to do :
1- re-flash the ROM and then reboot ..let your phone settle down..reboot to recovery wipe cache and dalvick cache then flash the minimal gapps
2-reflash the minimal gapps without the re-flashing the ROM ....(over-write the gapps again )
if both ways didn't work for you i recommend you change the GAPPS (maybe try delta gapps or get back to full )
good luck man

Thanks mate.
It's weird because I can't find Google+ through the play store , my Play games account doesn't connect.
My gapps package wasn't downloaded from xda, maybe that's the problem.
Could you link me to the one you're using?

5.0.2... And, nope, didn't work.
it still doesn't load icons an screenshots... I need serious help here. This is the only rom that works on my m8, since I don't have the RUU for it
Someone must have a solution for my issue. It should be something related to the "Hosts" file inside System>Etc.
Guys, don't let me in the dark.

Hmm. I al so get this problem but on 4.1.2 JB . There is way how to solve iy. Just go to setting. Go to wifi. Tap on your wifi and choose modify network. Tap advance optins. Choose static. And adjust your dns2 to 4.4.4.4 and the other one is 8.8.8.8 . Try to swap this two if this not working.

Can't install any app, error -505 in play store

Hello
I have problem with my s6, everything was fine till yesterday. I tried to update apps and google play store showed ERROR -505. Now I can't install anything even from sd card. I tried to clean cache from play store, google services, download manager. I unninalled updates of google services and play store, deleted google account, reflashed rom (w/o wiping data), cleaned cache in recovery but problem still occur. When I try install app from .apk I can't. Even google services and google play store can't update itselves. I'm on CleanandSimple rom v6 (so it's almost stock) for like month with no problems.
I could just make clean flash, but I can't install any app (like titanium backup) to make backup so I must fix this somehow
Anyone got some idea?

Back to stock, dude.
It's quite evident that it's a ramdom bug of your Rom.

As I said, I can't clean flash till I backup all my apps. If I wanted clean flash I wouldn't ask here

I'm having the same problem with my S7 G930F running the Hydra ROM 1.4 (Note 7 ROM). The problem just appeared today out of nowhere.
I am working on fixing it and will revert back with a solution hopefully.
---------- Post added at 09:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 AM ----------
I tried downloading the latest Play Store version from apkmirror and installing it manually from the SD card but the installation failed so we are in the same boat! I posted the problem over at the ROM's thread and waiting for an answer.

Help..White settings screen after gapps installation

On a tablet Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1 (3G) I installed Lineage OS 14.1, then after I installed the PICO Gapps I realized that the settings screen of the tablet was completely white without any writing .. At this point I tried to reflash from TWRP Lineage but it gave me an error, I then tried to do a factory reset wipe but the automatic startup configuration of lineage crashed, I then tried to make a format given by TWRP and this once android started but I found the gapps and the white screen on settings, how should I do so that I cleanly install the rom in order to solve the problem of the white screen in settings, then trying to install the gapps avoiding that it recurs the white screen problem in settings? Thanks a lot to those who want to help me, I don't know how to solve it.

I tried to do an advance wipe (Davilk, System, Cache, data and internal storage) and then I made a format data, doing so I flashed the rom correctly without errors, immediately after I also installed the pico gapps, thinking that maybe installing them at the same time as the rom that problem of the white screen on settings would not have arisen, while instead nothing has changed unfortunately .. so now I wanted to reflect the rom and try to solve differently with the gapps, but it always gives me error 7 as you can see from screen, the first time it worked facendadvance wipe and formed date now even doing this I always get this error ... the strange thing is that it worked before and now it doesn't ... someone can help me to solve it please?
read here in the post I wrote, practically the first time it worked by reading the guide you gave me and I managed to flash the rom, then I immediately put the gapps back thinking that maybe installing them together with the rom they worked while I always have the problem of the screen white ... so I wanted to reflect the rom without putting the gapps back and then maybe try to install them differently but it gives me the usual error and it does it even if I delete everything as the guide you sent me that the first time had worked ...someone can help me to solve it please?

update, after many tests in the end I managed to flash the rom, there is no explanation, simply trying and trying again it decided to work .. now I have not installed the gapps and the android settings screen I see it correctly ... now what I ask you how can I install the gapps so that I do not create this problem of the white screen in settings? I don't care who knows what google works, I just need the play store I downloaded the PICO gapps from directly from the gapp site by choosing ARM + 7.1 + PICO As you can imagine I would like to avoid finding myself with the same problem again since it is not easy to solve, I am not an expert, so I rely on you .. Thanks a lot to those who want to help me.

Use SD card for installation los zip. And download it again, if you'll still get same error than change TWRP version.

yes I used the sd card to install the rom, I just made a post a few seconds before you wrote saying that you have solved the installation of the rom. Actually I downloaded the rom again, but I don't think this is the cause since a few minutes before the installation of the rom had worked ... then I also tried to transfer the rom file back from the pc to the microsd and it always did not work, as soon as the 'i downloaded again it worked..so i guess it was a coincidence ... Now as I said in the previous post to yours, the problem is how to install the gapps or in any case, even just the play store is okay with me ... I would like to avoid the problem of the white screen in android settings that I had by installing the PICO gapps recur again ... anyway I wrote everything in detail in the previous post ... I hope someone can help me. Thanks

My bee it's gapps bug, this is not the first time to happening this.
I don't use gapps at all, specially not on that prehistoric device. It's laggy and pretty much slow and useless.. I advice you to check AuroraStore (FOSS Google play) on xda forum or install f-droid and search it there.

so the white screen on settings is a problem that has already happened to others with the installation of gapps, the strange thing is that I have seen on tyoutube others who have installed it without problems having the same device .. however if there are alternatives I can do without it.
I installed Aurora store 4.1.1, in the installation procedure I left the checkmarks that were by default and I always went ahead .. right? I did a bit of research to test this new app since I didn't know it .. and I saw that it has everything, but maybe not everything that the play store has, for example the YAP app (by nexi payment) it is not there, while for example on aptoide it is found .. why? From what I understood Aurora store should have all the apps from the play store so it is strange that there is not this one too.
