I uninstalled Google Play Services..... - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I made a mistake I was tired. I wanted to uninstall google play services ( only the update to downgrade) but like an idiot I deleted the app instead of the update with titanium backup.
I tried to install a new clean APK with correct dpi etc... but I have "google play services has stopped working" all the time. all apps who need playservice are not working like google maps. a lot of apps who required location mostly.
I can acces to the playstore but only with a secondary account. main account is not working anymore.
Do I need to install play services differently? Or I'm good to flash a clean firmware with odin?
Thanks.

[Q] Lost Google Play Services by accident and can't get them back

Hi
Stupid me! On my rooted Moto G 1st gen (XT-2032) 4.4.4, I managed to remove the Google Play Services while trying to integrate their update in the Rom via TitaniumBackup. Not the Services are gone, and most of the Google apps will abort immediately with an error.
I have tried something already: I have downloaded Google Play Services 6.1.83 apk (variant 036) and installed it, turned it into a system app, but while Google Keep now launches well, Google Maps or Google Play still immediately abort.
Is there anything I missed? And is there a way to restore the Services correctly without needing to flash a stock firmware on the phone?
Thanks for the help.
if you have unlocked bootloader, try flash the google play services from gapps, there are a package with play services

Yes I the bootloader is unlocked. Can you please elaborate your method?
Not sure it is the same, but I already installed (not flashed!) this file gappsearly.com/google-apps/google-play-services/summary/31-google-play-services/359-google-play-services.html
Is that what you meant?
Thanks
Try flash with cwm this file

Thanks, I tried and seemed to succeed but in fact, the GPServices are now in an awkward state : The only place where they appear now is in Titanium backup, but stroken-through, and I can't uninstall them from them. And the other Gapps report the services as missing.... It seems I will have to reflash all the same
can you delete play services apk from system?
try again and flash the play services, but its a weird problem :/

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?

Help! Google play services gone!

Hello, my S7 is rooted and I froze both Google apps and Google mail. Now, suddenly, I got an error that the play store needs the google play services and I should enable it.
Well, I could not find it. I rebooted and right after that the play store app itself was gone too!
Please help! No services means no play store, no gmail, no app that I bought, so, almost nothing!
How can I reinstall the play services and play store again?
Could I use a minimal GAPPS for AMD64 Marshmallow? (Does that already exist somewhere?)
Or, could someone create a Titanium ZIP with only these apps from their S7?
btw: Titanium backup is unable to restore anything (SELinux is not in permissive mode, but SU does not allow the SELinux program, somehow.) so I could not backup nor restore.:crying:
Just re-flash the whole stock image with odin, it's the safest bet at that point.
I found aroma installer for amd64 android 6.
Only installed the Google services and play. That, at least, got my play store back.
Now these problems to solve:
- a way to use titanium backup and restore
- a way to free the external sd card so it can be used without those stupid rights
- a normal name for the external sd card

I uninstalled Google Play Services.....

Try to convert Play Services to a system app and then reboot or if that not works, yes, flash a new firmware.

Are you using a tools for that ?
Or I just copy past the folder ? to /system/app or /system/priv-app ?
thanks for you help
I made a similar mistake trying to install a newer version of play services and got the same behaviour.
Only thing I could do was reflash firmware.

After restoring a TWRP backup, Google play services keep stopping.

Hello, I apologize if this is not the right place to post this but I'm really desperate about this issue.
I restored a TWRP FULL backup and now I can't use any google-related apps. Whenever I try to open the play store and try signing in; the google play services keep stopping
I tried uninstalling play store and play services updates, clearing caches, clearing their data and even installing play services apks to no avail
Any input is deeply appreciated. Thanks.
SOLVED
Ok, for anyone having this Issue in the future this is the way I managed to solve it:
Head to https://opengapps.org and download the full suite of Google apps for your Android version (don't forget to select the right platform) and then flash the .zip file on TWRP
Cheers
