Hi.
I am planning to install Google services on my new P40 pro.
But I am thinking what if I didn't like it or I found it unstable?
Is resetting my phone to factory settings will be OK? So I can return to the point where I am at now? Or is this Google installation process irreversible?
Thanks in advance

No reason you can't factory reset, which will wipe all Google services etc off and give you a 'new' phone again

Hello guys I have a little problem with Google Maps and 1+1.
Today I want to use it and I get the message "Unfortunately, Maps has stopped" I try to uninstall updates, uninstall updates and update again, clear cache and data, force stop and nothing works. I don´t know what I should do, Maps is very useful for me.
My device is BL unlocked and rooted with Cyanogen 11S stock version XNPH38R. If you need to know any other data, tell me. Thanks in advance.

use Nokia Here or do a factory reset. Strange that its the only app that gives you trouble.
really strange...
you may try disabling and reenabling location services through google settings app.. maybe it helps... there's some kind of corrupt data within the google services causing your problem...

Thanks for your fast answers guys!!!
I try what you said Aavion and Maps is still broken... :S
Relayers, what is Nokia Here? Is an app? If it is I can´t find it on Google Play. Also do a factory reset makes me tremble....
I´m thinking on do a backup of my current Maps app, delete it and download ir from scratch. What do you think about that?
Thanks in advance again.
Ok, I did the backup of maps, delete it and download it from Google Play, I have the same issue. Idk what I must do to fix that. I need to avoid a factory reset if possible.
Go to the Samsung site and see if they have Nokia Here in their app store. You can also do a "nokia here for galaxy" search.

okay... it seems like a factory reset is the only thing that helps with google maps... but first you may sideload the newest maps update and see how it goes, or use an alternate maps app like nokia here

Thanks for all your help. Now I´m also having the same issue than with maps with a game and other app that I usually use.
I have my 1+1 rooted with unlocked BL, How should I do a factory reset? I need to lock BL first? I´m a bit confused on how to proceed to make a factory reset because I don´t want to brick my phone. Thanks in advance.
EDIT.: And if I do a factory reset I lost the content of my storage like music and photos?
Just a little bump, can I do a factory reset without troubles with unlocked BL and root? If I do I lost root? And also do you recommend me to backup and restore my apps or I should do a fresh install of all of it? Thanks in advance guys!!!
I have a Sony Xperia Z5. This morning I did a system update and my Google Store and Services stopped working. I went to the help site and did what I was instructed to do. Now I can not open my phone. The messages are Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped and the other message is Unfortunately, System UI has stopped. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks in advance.

I too am in the same situation phone has the same posts regarding Google play services have stopped working and the UI has stopped, I can't get into my phone or shut off my alarm...
Simple . Do a factory reset whenever you upgrade the system firmware. Easy as 123. Hope that helps..

Expect people have been reporting that factory reset in this case makes it worse.
Now for some SystemUI crashes, leaving the phone unusable.

Have you wiped both the cache and dalvik cache in custom recovery??? If not. Give that a go, and let me know how it turns out.

It won't turn out well I'll tell you that.
Because the phone is not rooted.
It was an OTA update.
And before you ask. There is currently no way to root my phone.

Yeah, Then if you're phone is completely stock, with OTA updates, Doing a factory Reset and Cache Clean SHOULD fix the problem .. i dont see why it wouldn't unless its incompatible with your phone, but thats highly doubtful..
EDIT:: Try this, Go in to Settings>Apps>Google PLay Services> Clear Cache
Then Settings>Apps>System Apps>System UI>Clear Cache.
Reboot Device..
Good Luck!

There are a couple of discussions already. I've also called Sony support about it. They say they are aware of the issue and are working on a fix. In the meantime they recommend downloading Xperia Companion and doing a software repair. That being said, some people report that factory reset fixed it, others say that neither factory reset nor software repair fixed it. In some cases factory reset or software repair
I personally tried manually installing latest APKs, clearing data etc. The only thing I was able to achieve so far is getting rid of constant error popups by disabling google play services in settings > apps
Some have reported that doing a factory reset makes it worse.
So now I'm sitting tight and waiting for further developments.

@TheTecXpert
Clearing cache on apps doesn't work
Factory reset in some cases makes it worse.
Can't clean dalvik cache without root.
Can't even get the device into bootloader
Really, I think we just sit and wait for Sony to fix this

Yeah i'm speaking from a rooted device point of view my apologies.. Because I am actually rooted, i Dont have any errors.. But if Sony In indeed Aware of the problem and are currently working on a fix,
then i gues that'll be your best bet and just wait for sony to pull through..
Which they always do
Posted in the wrong forum earlier.
1. Rooted phone 2 months ago
2. Factory reset because it kept restarting.
3. After factory reset the phone wouldn't go past the lgsetup.
4. Used the wrong img file and bricked phone.
5. Fixed with the right img file. (Always check md5!)
6. After I got everything working I updated to MM.
7. Since MM update I get the following error "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped." and Mobile ID is stuck on download.
Pretty sure I broke it by updating. Any help is greatly appreciated!

That mobileID thing is tiny carrier specific unnecessary app, you just have to disable. The google play store has stopped is either going to have to be factory reset whereas you'll be better off resetting from recovery, OR send it to LG , they'll fix it for free and send you a free postage label, takes like 10 days.

That's probably what messed you up.
Never factory reset from settings on a rooted phone.
I don't have the Boost version of the Stylo but there is no custom recovery (TWRP) for that model, is there?
Yeah. No custom yet. I was able to fix the lgsetup issue. Now it's just an issue with Google Play store not working now.
I was thinking about trying to do another reset but am worried I'll break it again. And this time there is no good way to unbrick MM.

Hello everyone
i installed the GMS back in november using the LZPlay method, until now no problem at all.
If i factory reset my phone i will lose the GMS, is there a way to factory reset the phone without losing the GMS ?
Thank you

No way

There is no way preserving GMS on your phone after factory reset.

Hello,
So after updating the phone, I did a factory reset, but i forgot the google account/password, now all the bypassing tutorials are not working, is there something that would work even after updating to the latest security updates? is it possible to downgrade if downgrading will fix it for me? and how?
Thanks in advance for your time.
Regards.
IMO it's always a good idea to remove all Google accounts from phone before doing a Factory Reset.
