Messed up Gplay services with privacy guard - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I disabled google play services with privacy guard ( clicked on it) the device hanged and i had to reboot and now the device just hangs 1 sec after the phone boots and i cant use it and it reboot it self. I tried cleaning delvak and cache but the same problem.
I think I can fix it if i reverted the Gplay services again or deleted / cleaned the settings of privacy guard. I don't want to format the device so any other suggestions would be great

Solve it , delete the file /data/system/appops

Craziest Google Play / Google + / Google Now Problem! Please help!

Okay... had problems with my phone and had to totally wipe and start over (lost my IMEI and ERI). Anyway I finally got that all figured out and working and then I used ODIN to flash a factory stock image (MB1). Booted up phone and tried to login to Google Play - I get "No Connection". I decided to update to MF1 and let that process go. Still - no connection. I factory reset, cleared cache & data and still get same result.
Tried almost everything I can think of and get get logged into Google play and a few other Google services. I've searched the internet up and down and have no other options I can think of!
Google Play Store says - No Connetion
Google Now say - Network Error - Check your network connection and try again
Google Plus says No Connection Couldn't connect to the server
Google Maps works fine and has all my starred locations no problem
Here are all the steps I've taken:
1) Flashed totaly different MF1 ROM through recovery after clearing & formating every folder (system/cache/data) - same problem
2) Verified date & time is CORRECT
3) Cleared Google play and services cache and data and forced closed
4) Reset phone tons of times and powered completed down for 5-10 minutes
5) Removed google account and then re-added it
6) Deleted HOSTS file in system/etc
7) Downloaded latest Google Play and Google Services and installed manually
8) Tried WIFI & 4G - no difference in errors
Maybe Google is just down right now and everyone is having a problem? I highly doubt that! Maybe google is just blocking my account?
This is the craziest problem I have ever heard of. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Google play crash with CM12 on OPO

Hi all,
I updated my OPO to CM12 and the google play services can't be updated leading to the notorius battery drain plus several other issues.
It's all stock, less than 1 month old unit, what can I do?
The previous version, CM11 was great, the current YNG1TAS17L is creating only problems.
Please help.

Head into settings > apps > google play services > clear data.
After that head down to apkmirror.com and download Google Play Services and manually update the app.
This should fix the systemupdate service bug on the older version of Google Play Services

I have gone back to previous version.
Try this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psvtQB7NizI. I have had to use it several times and still have the trouble. Best case is factory wipe and reload from Google app.

Thanks for your message!
I can't access google play app crashes and I can't upgrade the app via the google play webpage.
I downloaded the latest version of the google play services (it appears to be the same version I already have installed) but I can't clear the data of that app (there is no clear data button just clear cache).
In order to install the apk, all I have to do is select it with a file explorer app (provided I have set the option of allowing the install of non google play apps?
Thanks,
Marc

If Google Play FC, head into settings > apps > Google Play > click clear data and force close
To clear data of Google Play Services, head into settings > apps > Google Play Services > (I think is) manage storage and it'll bring you into Google Play Services app, scroll to the bottom and click clear data. After that, force stop and uninstall any updates you may have for the app.
To manually update/install an app, use a file manager and head into the directory where you downloaded the app and just click on it and package installer will do the job it needs to do
hi all,
**EDIT** 20/10/15
So I wiped my phone again - cache and system. Flashed "cm-12-20150901-SNAPSHOT-YNG4NAO253-bacon" and "gapps-lp-20141212-signed" annnnnd it all works!
I still don't understand the cause of any of my troubles and I haven't tried doing this with CM 12.1 because stagefright is still an issue?
I cannot get Google Play services to function properly on my OnePlus one- have tried Factory resets, installing from a backup, Stock, CWM and TWRP recoveries. installing from apk hosting sites. clearing cache and all data in settings>apps>google blah blah, hoping someone can help me.
- several months ago i flashed TWRP as my new recovery and then flashed SuperSU and I have enjoyed this set up ever since as I love using the app AllStream which requires root access.
- after putting off updating my phone since doing this, I finally decided to update the other day...
- I downloaded the CM12.1 .zip , moved it onto my phone, booted it into recovery and flashed the bastard (figured everything was going smoothly at this point).
- When my phone booted up I figured I would download the Google Play store from the built in browser, and then download all my apps through that, BUT when I logged into my google account the play store said all my apps were already installed???
I downloaded some apps from some apk hosting websites and installed them (allstream,facebook,snapchat and a couple others) they all worked fine.
When I downloaded Google Play services Version: 8.2.99 (8299240) for Android 5.0+ (Lollipop, API 21) from apkmirror.com it installed and then gave me the error "unfortunately google play services has stopped"
every 3 seconds or so.
I have tried flashing Stock, CWM, Philz and TWRP recoveries, doing a factory reset and then flashing the CM12.1.zip. get the error in all cases.
I have tried clearing cache and all app data in phone settings>apps>google PS>clear cache/delete data
I have not had Privacy Guard running ever (some forums have suggested this can cause issues).
**EDIT** 19/10/15
I've realized since posting that I have had Privacy Guard running (i had thought it was a separate app).
I have since experimented with different settings within Privacy guard such as turning the "wake up" and "keep awake" options on or off - no success
No idea what to do now, have I done something obvious? What else can I try? What other information should I provide to help diagnosis?

[Android System][Device Locked] Device Management has restricted certain features

I was installed some s8 random apps (downloaded from appmirror) by the following tricks from this forum.

1. Add a shortcut of the apk to the home screen from the my files app
2.Power off the phone.
3. Cleared the cache partition.
4. Restarted the phone.
5. Quickly installed the Apk by accessing the shortcut from home screen.
(Now it's installed )
6. But the launcher keeps force stopping.
So I cleared touchwiz home's data and cache from app manager.
7. Now it's working fine.
I also installed Bixby app through the same process.
Hope this solution works for all those who face the conflicting signature problem.

For some reason i was reset(hard) my phone (by wiping data + cash partition). After successfully reset when device is turned on i found an unexpected error like below:
Device Locked
Device Management has restricted certain features on your device.
Please contact the administrator to re-install Device Management to recover your restriction.
Now I can't access CAMERA(security policy restricted camera), SD-Card not found(showing not inserted), Bluetooth is also disabled. USB-debug is also disabled although DEVELOPER OPTIONS is enabled. Screen-shoot is also disabled. I have flashed my mobile multiple times after that occurrence with proper updated files(AP,BL,CP,CSC,pit). But my problem is still remain. I really don't know what to do. Plz help me out. Thanks in advanced.
N.B: I have also used a fresh gmail account but problem still remain. I have a backup EFS folder but i can't root my phone as usb-debug is disabled. I was tried multiple times to root my phone by CF-Auto root for sm-g930k but it stuck on KT logo and as a result i have flashed it again and again. :crying:
Sorry for my bad english.

play services not working

I have problem with google play services.
I deleted some stock apps (many ,to be precise) on my alcatel onetouch I-213 . After that cleaning youtube and other google apps can't login. And they say
" update play services".
I did full reset and it is same.
( i didn't wipe a dalvik cache, i did factory reset from recovery)
And i don't know what to do with that.
You have to connect your phone through Wi-Fi, add google account from settings > accounts > google
Now restart device and if it's still not working then uninstall play store services updates from application manager.

Can't complete google backup restore / Phone stuck completing setup

In set-up wizard I login with google account and choose restore from cloud
When it's completing setup (my apps and data) it hangs on 47 ou of 87
Waited for a whole day for it to finish...nothing
Reset device 2nd time
Did another google backup on my old phone
Same thing this time at 60 out of 87
Edit:
Factory reset
No google account this time
Managed to update apps already installed on device, can't install new apps without signing-in
Disable all automatic updates etc.... sign in with google account, can't install apps "waiting for download"
also had this error during restore but doesn't seem to matter
Updating apps on playstore doesn't work, installing new apps also doesn't work...everything gets queued up and no progress
Really disapointed with this, maybe it's faulty?
Edit:
Did yet another system/factory reset. And this time I chose restore backup from another phone, hope it works.... update: it didn't, same thing 36 out of 87
UPDATE: MAIN POST EDITED
So I added my google account after setting up the device, I managed to restore a lot of apps BUT some of them failed and/or can't install them from playstore.
Tried deleting cache and storage from PlayStore. Also tried disabling MIUI optimizations and even letting the screen on ∞ time and let it install overnight......nothing
The list of apps appear to be random, so I'll just keep updating it
The list​
Android system webview - can't update
PokemonGo - can't install
Flud - can't install
For apps download/update change the connected WiFi settings to "static"
For crashes I would suggest to "clear cache" and "clear data" of these apps: Phone, SIM Toolkit, and Contacts
If it didn't work, then factory reset and start fresh (don't restore from cloud) it could be something from backup that conflict with MIUI

Thx for the tips I'll try them Edit: only had crashes on device setup
I did factory reset(4th time) and haven't restored from cloud yet, I̶'̶m̶ ̶a̶b̶l̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶p̶r̶o̶p̶e̶r̶l̶y̶ ̶u̶p̶d̶a̶t̶e̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶i̶n̶s̶t̶a̶l̶l̶ ̶a̶p̶p̶s̶ ̶n̶o̶w̶. can only update some apps already installed on the device and phone hangs when installing google apps that are part of the device setup.
I think this problem has to do with miui aggressive apps freeze/lock battery saver policies
Anyone knows how to disable that? I did disable miui optimizations and wifi throttling in developer settings (And no I don't have battery saver on)

I did factory reset(4th time) and haven't restored from cloud yet, I'm able to properly update and install apps now. But if I can't restore all my data from my account this phone is pretty useless to me.

I'm no expert on miui yet by try to lock google play store in the memory. You can do that in the recents list. Also make sure that all the needed apps have the right permissions (storage etc.).

PokemonGo - c̶a̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶i̶n̶s̶t̶a̶l̶l̶ was installed after update MIUI V12.0.2.0 (QJGEUXM)
Flud - can't install always stuck at 66% (25-09-2020 managed to install it today...dunno why)
Anyways I unlocked bootloader etc. Still can't update some apps like, messages, chrome and system webview
But what is important :
PlayStore settings -> scroll to the bottom and under Play Protect certification -> Device not certified
Is this normal?

Same thing happened to my device when I bought it, but I managed to install everything. All it took was just a restart.
Also, keeping your bootloader unlock will remove the Play Store certification, the only way to be certified again is to restore the stock rom again and lock the bootloader, otherwise you may encounter further problems with Google services in the future.
