Why can I not download Apps from Google Play onto my Wildfire.
When I log into my account onthe PC it says all the Apps have been installed but they are not on my phone.
I have tried restarting the phone to see if that will force it to download but it dosent. I have also tried to download via the website on my phone and it still does not transfer to my phone.
Anyone have any ideas?
I have a Galaxy Grand but the chinese version.
The model is SCH-i879.
The problem i have is that the android in this phone does not allow me to install any of the google apps (maps, gmail, play etc).
I haven't been able to install CWM with odin. The installation seems succesfull (i'm installing the CWM for the Samsung Galaxy Grand GT-i9082). I cant boot into recovery when i flash the CWM.
I have the original Stock image that i got from Samsung Mobile.com, but other than that, i have not been able to install google apps, root the phone or install CWM to install Cyanogen or other custom rom.
Does anybody know what could i do to at least root the phone? i was able to install ROM Manager, but without any root privilages it is useless...
Help me Please!!

I want to install coustom rom on Samsung Galaxy Grand(Chineese Version)...Pless Help....
hello.
can u tell us how you managed to install gapps?
i downloaded the zip from goo.im and copied it to the root of the phone, rebooted and tried to install from recovery mode 3e but it says that it doesn't find the sdcard.
after that i thought that if i put an external sdcard maybe it will work. still nothing. the i tried with adb but i get an error about the signature of the zip.
the only way i see that i will be successful is by installing the zip from cwm.
is there something wrong with my phone that it can't see the internal sdcard or is it normal? when the phone is running i can see it without a problem. just in recovery mode i get the error

this is the chinese version sch-i879. which cwm should i try?
I think this has been quite a weird situation for me. I recently upgraded to ICS using a custom rom(PA rom to be sure). I then saw some unusual behaviour in the cell. It didn't contained any useful apps apart from few basic apps such as browser and phone etc. (Not even market/Play store)
So, I first thought to install playstore. So I downloaded the market app and copied it to SD Card and thought to install it manually. Just then I got to know It aint got any file manager. So I thought to use ADB to install apk.
So I and installed it via adb. But I got this error:
adb install Market.apk
2097 KB/s (201370 bytes in 0.093s)
/sbin/sh: pm: not found

Since there isn't a way round to install the app, I would like you guys to give me ideas on the problem. I did tried lot of googling but nothing worked.
Also, I got one more major problem. My Volume Key is broken. Until today, I used ODIN to flash the rom. Then would use ADB to wipe data etc. But now ODIN wont recognize the cell. It is being shown in device manager as "Unknown Device".
I tried reinstalling samsung drivers, used windows automatic search to pick drivers, and all I could. But Device isn't being recognized in DOWNLOAD mode.
So I got a dummy phone into which I cant flash a rom, neither any app. Only internet and calls can be done for now. Can somebody help?
I figured that since it took me forever to figure out how to install GooglePlay store on the N9009, the dual sim China variant running 4.4.2 KK, and get it working properly I thought it'd be worth sharing with others who might want to do the same.
Things you will need:
Rooted N9009
Odin 3.07 http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1168421
CWM Recovery http://downloadandroidfiles.org/download-n9006-cwm-recovery-6-0-3-70922-fix-adb-tar/
GAPPS I used CM11 GAPPS from cynanogenmods wiki found here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
ES File Explorer/Root Explorer
You will need to flash a custom recovery through Odin. Run Odin with administrator privileges and click the PDA button. Locate the n9006-cwm-recovery-6.0.3.7(0922)-fix-adb.tar file and click start. Your phone should reboot. You should noticed that we're using the N9006 CWM recovery, which was the only one I could find that'd work with the N9009.
The problem I discovered when trying to flash GAPPS on the N9009 was that the priv-app cache was full and wouldn't allow all of GAPPS to install to /system/priv-app/. This is where I had to use a root explorer and delete a couple of apps from /system/priv-app/ For example, I deleted the Samsung gallery app and a couple other non crucial non-needed Samsung junk. Now you should be able to flash the GAPPS zip from CWM.
This was the best method I found for installing the GooglePlay Store and having it run correctly. I tried to install it manually by copying Google Play Services framework and everything over to the folders myself but kept running into the gapps has quite unexpectedly, google services has crashed, or the play store would just never connect.
maybe you can use the google installer in wandouji market
also need root
you will not trip knox and only need install an apk and let the software to do it.
[RE] maybe you can use the google installer in wandouji market
Well it did need all of the Google Services to run properly and I'm not sure whether Wandouija store would include them all or not. Also I can't really speak/read Chinese and I can't remember if the Wandouija store was on the phone already or not.
I just figured it would be best to flash it as a system app from twrp because there always seems to be less problems that way.
Maybe next time I have to add the play store to my bosses dual sim Chinese phone I'll try it that way.
detailed Instructions please
