I have two Google Play accounts. For a few reasons I have purchased Apps on both accounts. From time to time I am unable to download updates for certain Apps. I get a google play error 403. The only way aroumd this that I have found is to remove the account that did not purchase the app download the update and then re-add the second account.
Not all apps do this. Most often the apps that cause the issue are Tinycam Pro and Tapatalk pro.
Does anyone know of a better way to deal with this?

Same issue here, with tapatalk. Deleting one account is a working workaround, but not very handy.

Hi,
Is there any way to transfer all purchased/free apps from one google account to another?
Thanks
You'd have to contact Google directly to find out, but I'm pretty sure they won't do it.

Puchased Apps are bind to a single Account. You can't transefer them. The only way to get them to your phone would be switching Accounts.
You can read more at the english Android Market help pages. Search for "Retrieving previously purchased applications". I can't post links
Hi all
I'm on a GS4 4.3.
At present I've 2 google accounts.
The first one is the one I use for play store
The second is the one which I use on my desktop and so is the one on which I store my chrome bookmarks. And till two days ago it was nicely synchronised with my s4
Two days ago I noticed a chrome update and since then my desktop bookmarks were no more available
Going in account settings I noticed that in the main device google account the sync with chrome was enabled.
On the second account there's no chrome sync option.
How can I make appear this option again? Or is there anything else I should do?

Shame on me two times
I've found the solution actually two solutions
First one
Deactivated and than reactivated chrome. And it asked for the account to sync with.
Second method
I did not notice that chrome own settings let you log out from the account itself.
So it was possible without deactivating the app

I was wondering what this phone came installed with. I haven't bought one yet, but I'm really considering it.
Does this device come installed with Google Play or Google Play Services? Would I be able to install it if I tried (because I'm not against that)? Or can I just install a ROM and get all that with it?
Thanks.
It depends actually on the region the phone was made for. If you buy a Chinese version of the phone, you wont have Google apps installed and you would be able to manually install them ( google contacts sync and play store are the most important ones). Yet, if you bought an international version of the phone, then Google apps will be pre installed by default

I've bought an L02 version of ebay, installed playstore manually, but I can't sync my contacts. Everything else it's no problem, but not the contacts! I've done a bunch of searching with no conclusion. Any ideas?
Your problem is that you are missing the Google contacts sync app. Find it in a google apps package or download it from Huawei app center

I've downloaded the contacts app from here:
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...ontacts-1-1-android-5-1-android-apk-download/
And still, I can't add my google contacts. Everytime I try to add an account, the google accounts is not an option, only Cloud, Weibo and facebook show up.
Is it possible to have 2 google play store accounts at the same time on 1 device?
So if I have updates to some apps purchases on either account they will both update automatically? Not having to log off and on each account?
The reason I'm asking is that I have 2 devices with purchased apps on different gmail accounts, but I would like to retire device #1 and merge all the apps on my 2nd device, but of course, purchases are tied to the email address.
Anyone know?

i have several google accounts on all my Android devices, different apps purchased on different accounts, works fine.

Yes it's possible. Fyi, you can use one Google account on many devices. No need to split it into different account for different device.
What are the possible replacements for google services?
Aptoide/Yalp store as replacement for play store?
If it works, I guess installing youtube, maps, etc. from either store should work? Or not?
Or we can find alternative apps thatbwork like youtube, gmaps, etc. anyway
How about retrieving contacts saved in google account? Can i retrieve them using browser logged in my google account? How to import into phone?
Users of Apps/games that require google login like pubg should use alternative logins now. Will it work?
What are the all the requirements for degooglefied phone like nubia x?
Hi,
I'm using one phone like that, until some solution for the google services is found.
It's a bit uncomfortable, but it's working. In anther one post I have uploaded a picture how it looks like.
Here is the answers of your questions:

YouTube app generally working, but closes when cant find the google services. Anyway I'm watching the videos from the browser.
Maps - you can install Chrome and then pin it to the home screen. Works like charm.
You can install Mesanger, WatsApp, Viber, Skype - they work.

With PUBG I had some issues installing it because except the apk has obb, may be I'll try later when I have some time. Fortnite is working like charm. Even with the back screen two additional buttons is like a cheat.
Things which I could not solve until now:
- Outlook cant import o365 mail hosted by GoDaddy.
- It seems that, a lot of applications rely on google services for the push notifications. If the app (let say Viber) is not running, you may not have popup notification on the lock screen. (If anyone knows how to solve that I'll be happy)
So, that's all. At the end you can live with the phone. I'm happy with it.
I hope that answers your question. If you have other questions - let me know

How about updating/syncing contacts? I mean after retrieving them and i added a new contact entry. How do i update/sync that contact into google?
And for photos? Do i have to manually backup to pc or cloud since there's no google photos and no google drive?
Any other concerns i might have forgotten?
Edit:
Link to this thread you mentioned?
I used aptoide - the only google apps that seems to work is Google Chrome Browser and gmaps. youtube did not work through aptoide as didn't all the other google apps i tried. I placed a youtube home page using the chrome broswer on the desktop. Whatsapp apk i downloaded from their official website and installed working fine. When I downloaded whatsapp through aptoide and the chinese market app it won't work and keeps saying date and time is not right even though it is - maybe because its not chinese date and time?
For Contacts i opened my pc with chrome broswer and downloaded the contacts VCARD which you can do and placed in root folder of Nubia X - picked all my contacts up - I'm not sure how to sync though to google accounts as you cant add a google account through the phone unless you root as per other posts.
Pretty silly how they just didn't let you install gapps without root - i buy a lot of chinese phones and its the standard now even if google isnt preinstalled - its been a long time since I've seen a phone that doesn't let you install gapps yourself if you want too even though they dont support it. I'm finding it hard to use the phone and it will probably end up in a drawer for a few months until the international rom is released with google. Its annoying, even switching the phone off the voice assistant starts in Chinese and i want to get rid of this.
I've deleted practically all the bloatware, yet can't get music player to detect music i placed in the music folder.
Should have done my reading before hand but oh well... I got it for less than £495 from geekbuying 128gb version but should have waited out for the international rom version
Most of my good apps I downloaded through the Amazon App Store which is also working so I have 3 markets on my phone at the moment.
