Hey guys,
First off wanted to say thanks for having a special forum for people like me who don't really know what we're doing
I've got a custom-built device running stock 4.2.2. I'm unable to access bootloader, so I can't install a gapps package, but I need to install the Play Store and Play Services.
I've got Play Store installed, but i'ts not working due to lack of Play Services. Whenever I try to install the Play Services APK, I get the parsing error.
The normal fix for this, from what I've seen, is to put the apk in Drive, but since I don't have Services, I can't log into GMail or Drive, both of which I've installed with their respective APK files.
I can't mount a USB stick because the device doesn't support OTG.
Any ideas?
Been googling for play store and services APKs, I just can't figure out which I should use for 4.2.2.
It's not a custom ROM; stock 4.2.2. I have no access to bootloader, no way to install recovery.
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Have you tried looking at apkmirror.com? They have every version of those apps available for download.

Hi all,
I have an Ainol AX7 Flame tablet and flashed the newest official ROM for it. Now i dont have the possibility to add a Google account and there is no Play Store on the tablet. I searched the Net for info. I found that there are MANY different Google Play Services versions.....but do i need that to add a Google account ? And do i need that to add Google Play store ?
I have downloaded a few Google Play store apps...but they close immideatly if i start the app without errors or FC warning.
Any ideas ????
PS I rather do not want to root or custom ROM....wanna keep it stock.

For installing google play (store) you either need a rooted android or at least a custom recovery. Custom recovery is the easy way as you can flash a "google apps" package. Without root or custom recovery there is NO way to get the play store working if its not pre-installed

I have a Xiaomi TV Box 3rd Gen, Model : MDZ-09-AK and i'm having a few problems. After trying to install google play for awhile, I rebooted and manged to get google play, however a few things happen, I couldn't install apks (crashes any apps that tries to install it) and google play doesn't even work (No connection though my wifi works), the youtube app also stopped working. So I decided to enter system menu and clear everything out. However, i'm now stuck without a settings app, with a broken play store and some default apps. I cannot install any .apk.
Anyone can assist me?

Hi,
I bought a new Xiaomi MiPad 2 64GB Android version but was bit disappointed when I didn't find Google Play Store in it. I tried different suggestion on the internet to install apks manually from various forums (not sure if those apk were legitimate, bit scary now when I think about it) and got play store somehow installed but none of the apps would install. It goes to the stage where you are shown the window with permission the app needs and it fails with a message.
I have restarted the tablet multiple times, tried installing many apps, uninstalled the google installer and reinstalled it but to no avail. Its very disappointing that its so difficult to get google play store on to an Androind tablet!
Has anybody got any suggestions, should I wipe off what Xiaomi provides and get a new ROM in (I haven't done custom ROM installations before)?

I Think You Have To Flash Gapps to Make Playstore Work Mate From Your Recovery ..
As Your Phone is New, You Have To Install A Custom Recovery Like TWRP to Flash Google Apps(GAPPS) ..
Check this link for That ..

ok, thank you
You have to change the Data file system to ext4 and then reflash the OS with TWRP. Helps to have an usbOTG cable and a thumb drive with the os.zip and Supersu.update.zip on it because as soon as you reformat the data file, say goodbye to everything on the device. So backup all your stuff to a pc or what have you first. After that your Google apps will work fine. You can just download Google Services framework5.1-1743759(22), Google Account Manager5.1-1743759, Google Play Services10.0.84(x86+x86_64), and Google Play Store7.3.07 from APK Mirror and go to settings, Autostart and select the three that show up. Restart your device and you are good to go.
Got an iDeaUSA CT740K tablet with missing Google play services. I wasnt even able to sing into any google account because of the missing google play services. However, I found an APK version of the services for the tab and installed it. It fixed the problem, well, for a while. Whenever i install the apk it fixes the problem and i am able to download stuff from google play, however, google play services remove from itself after about 10-20min and i cant download anything from google play again. I tried to move the apk into root/system/apps but it didnt help (the device is rooted). I wanted to flash gapps but i dont have a custom recovery (cant do it with the stock one, as it seems) to do it so, because there isnt any available yet. Also, there isnt a stock firmware available so cant re-flash it over the current one. I tried factory reset and erased internal memory but didnt help.
There are 3 games from fox which appear on the tab even after being uninstalled. I assume that the tablet cough some viruses and they are the reason for this happening.
If someone has a solution, feel free to share it
Thanks!

Hello there,
I have an old XPOD tablet, The google apps in it are not responding well and i get errors like, (Google Play services have stopped working). I tried rooting the tablet with Kingo root and deleted the google apps and install the recent ones but i get the same error ((Google Play services have stopped working)).
I cannot flash the Gapps package in it using ADB and Fastboot because it doesnt have a bootloader.
Is there any way that i somehow flash the GApps into it to probably make it work again? Or any other relevant solution that could help me get away from this issue.
