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. 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.

I have an XT1032 4.4.3.
I tried changing my bootanimation to the Android L one by downloading the flashable zip found here:
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/android-l-...-system-dump-available-kitkat-devices-1454562
First off, it was obviously not meant for the screen size of the Moto G as it didn't work properly. So then I tried to change it back to the normal animation by Uninstalling Updates for Motorola Boot Services and hopefully then reinstalling the update from the play store.
Well, I can't find it on the play store when i search for it. I can find it in my apps list in the play store and then after clicking it I updated it. Oddly, it gives me an option to uninstall it. Im not gonna do that.
I downloaded the zip for the original one and replaced the Android L one via root explorer.
How can I find Boot Services in the Play Store again?

I can't find it in the play store either, but here is the apk, I pulled it from my Moto G.
Thanks for the apk but as I mentioned, I can't find it when Im searching for it but in my apps list where it shows all the apps that were ever installed on my device, I can see it and then update it from there.

hi, tnx for ur answer, installed manually the latest play store and now theres no way to see if im certified but i think im still not certified cause i cant install Netflix from playstore, it doesnt appear.
PS: Fixed this issue, for some reason my s8 plus wasnt originaly resistered with samsung, i had to call samsung in my country, register my device with my carrier/imei and aftee that i had to factory reset and then it was solved.
Strange that the Crakle app works.
I jsut installed the app from titanium backup I had on SD card, then it updated by itself....
its available from the Google Play, did you install it and try?
Go to Google Play > Settings > scroll to bottom and make sure Device Certification says Certified.
Unlocking the bootloader and/or rooting the device will change this, and you won't be able to download Netflix from the store.
If it's Uncertified, you can try to clear cache/data of Play Store and reboot.
Must not be compatible with our yet, because in just a few short hours it is no longer available. Also being uncertified is not the case, as I could have downloaded earlier today.

Google play has none that are compatible, I purchased mine from Amazon so it should be HTC USA unlocked model. But I can't verify that yet.
Yep I just checked again and Netflix isn't compatible with HTC U 11 and also the HTC 10,sounds like a Nougat issue.

You don't have to keep trying, it is not compatible with our device yet. If Google Play removed it, most likely won't work even if you got it from Amazon. Like I said must be a Nougat issue as NetFlix isn't compatible with the HTC 10 either.

Netflix changed it with version 5 release.
I never had the issue with any rooted and bootloader unlocked phone, then one week I tried to download it after a usual factory reset and ran into the issue.
Last I checked, Netflix still worked when I sideloaded it.

Unfortunately it does now. An unlocked bootloader is why you can't install Netflix from play store. Google updated somethings in play store and app developers can now block installs to devices with unlocked bootloader. Netflix is one of those apps that have utilized that option. I found this issue in my 10. However on my 10, with magisk installed and utilizing magisk hide I was able to get around it and install Netflix if I wanted

No worries Im sure it will be fixed soon, multiple issues across multiple devices running Nougat.

In on sprint but I'm rooted and unlocked and my Netflix works fine
Hi guys. Im really hoping someone can help me here. This is my first post here so dont hate.
So I've been using this op6 since a year now.
My main issue- Unrooted but cant use some apps and games. They all crash because im supposedly rooted.
Tried installing the mario kart tour today. Had a similar issue with pokemon go so had to stop playing. Some banking apps refuse to work (axis bank). And most importantly Fortnite. This was the first app i tried installing on my phone after buying it. Crashed right after i jumped from the bus.
Confirmed facts about my phone to make this a faster process:
Unrooted (checked on root checker)
Developer options switched off
Oem locked
Passed safety net check from the app on playstore
Bought from the official oneplus store. Brand new out of the box.
Receiving latest OTA updates.
No supersu installed
Latest security patch updated via ota
Any information regarding this would be highly appreciated. I have nowhere else i would be able to explain this scenario.
Thanks
Try to install Magisk (if rooted) and select app or game in "Magisk hide" to say your smartphone is not rooted
If not rooted look if you're installed last update of Android système webview in Google play store.
I'm not rooted. Infact my bootloader is still locked. Magisk wont work right?
Im wondering what exactly could be triggering the false positive on these games.
Android system webview is disabled
Maybe a Magisk folder is still on your device. Search for "Magisk" folder in file manager and if you find anything, delete it.
Nah buddy! No magisk was ever installed on the device. A deep search for such a folder yielded no results.
Someone help please!

Ok you need to figure out if you have an app that is causing this installed. I recommend you do a factory reset, do not install any backups or apps when you go through initial setup, and then install and try any of your "problem apps" one at a time to see if they work.
