Is there any playstore mods I can install to force my phone to install apps that are now compatible. A few games ive bought have became incompatible after a while and i cant install them/update them if i download an apk. Im using an Xperia M stock 4.3 rooted with an overclocked kernel and cwm. Ive tried market helper and installed from playstore website but the app never started to install. Any help would be appreciated thanks

i believe i remember seeing an exposed module that would bypass it, but dont hold me to that.
maybe do some searches on the exposed site and see if you can find anything.

And after i rebooted my Phone I got notification that Android is upgrading installing google apps. But Unfortunately I cant find any of the Google Application Installed and once i was able to get PlayStore but even that did open up. Any Help Here is greatly appreciated.

Hey. First, don't do what I did. I though I may have needed to flash the newest version of CWM to my Optimus T. Don't do it. It was soft bricked, and it was a pain to fix. Second; try updating your SU binary, and downloading the latest SuperUser apk from the browser. I personally haven't tried it (still recovering from brick), but it's said that it is a viable solution. If that doesn't work, your best bet is to download any version of Blackmarket Alpha, open it, and let it update itself. It pretty much has all of the same apps as the Play Store, minus the sleek UI and better sorting we both miss from the store.
Footnote: Gapps may have not flashed the applications themselves, but go to System > Accounts and check to see if Google is an option. That tells you it's atleast half way working. If you can, download the Play Store .apk, and repeat the second thing I told you above.
Best of luck,
Rob

Hello, i also have an LG Optimus One P500 using the same ROM version and gapps don't install either. The browser doesn't work (it starts and right after it closes, if i push the off button to shutdown the screen and then i reopen it, it does not lock. Anyway, this problem appears only with build 5 version. I hope someone/somebody will fix it, till then i'll stick with build 4. Thank you for your time.
Which gapps pkg did you use?

Did you use the smaller version of gapps or the Generic one? One of the problems with 4.x is that it's so big there isn't room for all the Google apps. If you used the 88MB version then try the gapps-jb-light-20120804-signed.zip version (55MB) and see if that one works. I saw several Optimus V folks with the same issue and using a chopped down version worked for them. The problem is that there isn't enough internal storage for both the ROM and the full gapps package.

This thing has been mentioned a million times in both discussion and development threads. Just if you could use the little search button you would get your answer

Your /system partition is full. Delete stuff to make space, then reflash gapps.

Yes, Flash using gapps. Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2405292 and download there.

I use Lucky Patcher to install the playstore alone. I never had a problem with it
Hello everyone! First post from a noob android fanboy! I have a gnex gsm version. I rooted recently and flashed cm11, but the problem is that I did not backed up my data(don't know why I did that sincerely), but the problem is somewhere else. I couldn't install anything. When I try to download Facebook it says error, try to download play store, won't open. I sign in with my account on play store on the web and it show the status of my previous apps installed, but I can't find them nowhere. This is the best part where I factory reset my phone, loosing all my data, but the situation is the same. I flashed cwm before the custom ROM, but I don't know if I have it anymore. Any idea is welcome guys. Thanks in advance
You cant install google play and start downloading apps right away !!
You have to flash GApps
(Google Apps)
Search for this on google : cm11 gapps
Download it and format system + factory reset from the recovery (cwm)
Then flash the rom again .. And before u boot to system, flash the GApps package

Hello there,
Had trouble getting the 6045Y rooted with TWRP since it was on 6.0.1 locked bootloader, stock recovery.
Ended up flashing Eluga lollipop rom and was then able to flash TWRP 3.0, root etc.
I've now got lineage14.1, but a lot of apps in the play store say that they're not compatible with my device.
Checked the build prop, it says TCL instead of alcatel, but I'm 100% certain it's an alcatel.
- Tried changing things in the build prop
- Tried clearing play store cache and data
- Installed latest google play services in case
Not sure how to get rid of that message. I could download the apks for every app but that could take a while.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks for the help
There is an app in playstore which can spoof the playstore and make it think you are using a different type of phone that is compatible....

Nice, I'll have to see if it's still compatible considering it looks like an old app. I'll be able to try on monday when I get the phone back. If it does work I'll come back for the thumbs up.
Thanks a lot

Yeah it doesn't work unfortunately. App hasn't been updated in a while and gives me an error. I'll look for an alternative though.
Thanks
Aye that is a shame - used the app a couple of years ago and it worked like a charm
Did you try the build.prop tweak method described in the article at the end ? {you have to do a bit more than edit the file}
Hey,
I've installed a custom recovery, re-installed an official OTA update and rooted my phone.
Now the play store won't download apps. The only wayto download apps with play store is to press install, then reboot and the app will install.
Moreover, the play store shows nothing in the updates whereas I have apps that should be updated.
I tried to uninstall the play store and re-install with a recent apk, it still does the same thing.
Anyone has a fix here ?
EDIT : Now the play store won't start, it keeps crashing everytime, even after reinstalling it with an apk
So I would like to install a working Play Store version but I don't think that factory reset would do anything ..
