i have a philips ppx3610 beamer with android.
i wanted to try and make use of a few paid/play store-exclusive apps, but it turns out to be quite difficult.
current status:
Philips ppx3610 pico projector
rooted, supersu installed manually.
android version 2.3.1(official firmware)
20110828 g-apps installed in system, play store listed as "market" and seems to function.
my exact problem is that there seems to be no interface for adding accounts on the beamer.
the .apk that's supposed to handle it is included with the original rom, but it doesn't seem to work at all.
settings is a stripped version with no account settings, and if a google app(gmail/market) tries to call the "add google account" screen it jumps straight back to the app drawer.
there are a few difficulties making it a bit risky/difficult to experiment.
no (touch)screen: everything needs to be done with a usb keyboard or ir remote.
no recovery at all(any brick is unbrickable)
incomplete settings
ancient android version
all reset/power options are handled by software, if it freezes it takes an hour to turn it off.
this device is capable of using the play store, but it was only included in review and internal testing models.
does anyone have an idea how i could safely "restore" accounts&sync, or perhaps have another way to get the play store working?

that video doesn't help much.
I can get the play store installed, my ppx3610 just seems to be missing a component required for adding accounts.
without a Google account the play store refuses to do anything.
FW update
Did you try to update to latest FW? On Philips website you can normally download the latest version
With latest FW the missing components should be installed. Then follow the instructions provided by the video

I already got it working a while ago, but forgot to mention it here.
perhaps I forgot to reboot after my previous attempts.
Google Play Store Latest Version
Well It seems that there is some problem in the version of Google Play Store you have installed it,You can solve this problem by downloading and installing new application of Google Play store,It is quite easy to install a new version of Google Play Store.Just Install and overwrite the already present files.
I'm looking for the firmware update to 2.24 version or newer for ppx3610. Is there someone who has that file?
I just got a tablet that uses a de-Googled Android (Amazon Kindle Fire HDX). I'm aware you can install the Play Store and turn it into a useable tablet, but I wonder if this couldn't be achieved in a simpler way - or rather, a way that didn't require installing the Google framework.
I'm thinking of the Chrome/Chromium plugin that lets you spoof the Play Store and download the APKs straight to your computer. I'd like something similar, but that could run on the device itself, so you could install stuff without needing a computer nearby. Unfortunately Chrome for Android doesn't support the same extensions as the desktop version, so that option is a no-go. I've checked a few apps that claim to download APKs, but they all use the Google API and won't work if the PlayStore isn't already installed.
Any ideas?
head over apkleecher.com, put the package name there and download the apk from g0ogle play, in any browser
I recently purchased a Chuwi VX17HD Android 4.4 Tablet PC 7.0" IPS 1024*600 Quad Core RK3188 1.6GHz 1GB RAM from dealsprime.com. It came preloaded with Google Play installed. I synced my Google account with it but it won't download any apps. I can navigate the store but when I click to Install, "Downloading" appears but it never downloads/installs. Help would be gratefully appreciated. So far I have tried the below but nothing seems to be working
Clearing Google Play Store/Google Play services app data/cache
Uninstalling Google Play Store and reinstalling the latest Google Play Store via an APK
Checked date and time are correct on the device
Set up a new Google account and added that account
Performed a factory reset of the device
Verifying Download Manager is enabled
Did you ever solve this problem?
I seem to have the same issue.

No I never solved the issue...very frustrating as lots of apps wouldn't work without being able to connect to Google Play.
We have a survey GPS at work that runs android on the data collector handheld. Android has been customized by the manufacturer and none of the google apps or much else are on there except their software. I tried copying apk files for google play and some other programs and installing them from download folder but after installing them they either open and immediately close or say they require google play services. The unit is running 4.4.2. Is there a way i can get google play to work on this so i can install some other apps? Thanks
With the latest app updates, some G-app (like Duo, Keep, …etc) got this message “App won't run without google play services, which are missing from your devices … INSTALL”, even though "Google Play Services" is installed with the latest version. Sometimes games are stuck at the loading screen like “ActionTaima..” because the game can't access Google Services correctly. The workaround solution was to find & revert back to the proper/previous version & Uninstall/re-install them, whenever G-store updates them automatically. It's kinda annoying
After research, trailer & error, I found that updating “Google Services Framework”, does solve this issue. I presume, latest G-app deals with “Android 11+”, therefore, Google Services Framework must be updated in order to match with it.
1) Download Google Services Framework 11-6684105
2) Install & enable Autostart & Reboot your system.
I'm glad to hear any other methods or solutions
I'm not sure if this will help, I recall getting the same problem on my emulators some time back, and was able to resolve it by downloading Google Play Games, and in doing so, that forced the Play Services to update. Maybe it will help?

Would you mind sharing the emulator name that you struggle with before?
As for me (BS4Pro CN ROM), I never installed/used "Google Play Games.apk" at all. I just played them direclty as well as all known emulator are working perfectly including the new one AetherSX2 (The Beast).

For android emulator on PC, I believe it should be just fine. If got any issues , just enabling root feature, & try to manipulation with system on emulator or add 3rd party app to modify. FYI, I was using MEmu on PC.

As far as I know, google play services is updatable and google MAP can be used normally.
However, accessing location/map with 3rd app party (such as WhatsApp ...etc ) has multiple scenarios;;
- View "received map" from other == Perfectly Working !!
- Locate your current location == Working ( but a black screen, just point GPS and send ) !!
- Navigate the map to select different location == Not working (Just black screen)
I suggest you open a new thread, so people can hopefully share & react to the issue.
my google services is updated to latest version. still encountering the play services error. google keep and google pay keeps looking for google play services. even mcdonalds app is looking for it.
