Hello, so il get right to the point
I cant update any of the google apps.
When trying to update Google music app, it gives me the "package file was not signed correctly.Uninstall the previous Copy if the app and try again."
now, this problem also accurs with other google apps sutch as maps, calendar etc.
deleting the cache and then trying to update the app doesnt work either.
i also use google Keep alot.i installed the app and it says. "This app won't run unless you update Google Play Services." Ok, fine so i try to update Play services and Behold, the same error occurs,giving me the annoying "package file was not signed correctly.Uninstall the previous Copy if the app and try again." Error yet again.
i tried manually downloading the android play store apk. and installing a new version, but then it gives me this error "An existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed".
Deleting the cache and disabling the app and THEN trying to install it wont work either.
Im using Nexus 4 with 4.2.1
I haven't rooted it, no roms.
And the best part!I got this phone 2 months ago, then the problem occured, then i gave it back to the provider (thanks to the warranty), i got it back today and the problem still occurs.What they did, was "reinstalled android on the phone".
So please, anyone, im about to drop the phone in the toilet if this problem does not get fixed.
I wont risk on "installing a custom rom" on the phone, i almost bricked my last LG GT540 Optimus.
This is a clean Nexus 7 first gen. It is unlocked and rooted.
The Google Play Magazine used to work well under 4.3. Then the Play Newsstand came out and I believe it worked too. With Android 4.4, the Play Magazine tried to update itself several times. But the program was very buggy. I had to manually uninstalled the Play Newsstand down to Play Magazine.
Then finally the upgrade program blew up. It took the Play Magazine app with it and replaced with an Android icon. The Play Magazine app is gone.
I tried to re-install Play Newsstand from Google Store and it failed. I got "110" unknown error (unknown error code during application install: -110). Tried to manually install the Play Magazine 1.0 and 2.0 apks, both failed. Tried again the Play Newsstand 3.0 apk and it says "app not installed".
Tried to use WugFresh Nexus toolkit to install the apk, still not working.
What is wrong with this?
It is not that I really need this app, but I just wonder what is going and what is wrong, and how to fix it.
Thx.
I think u have removed some part of the framework with the app hence the android icon. Cos when i remove app ot just goes away. U might need to flash ur rom again. Just reflash no need to wipe any thing and it should replace every thin back to normal.
Please ignore my spelling mistakes. English is not my native language.
Restored the 4.4.2 factory image and restore all data. It works fine now. Do not know what happened. It appears a lot of people have 110 problems installing some apps....
Installed modded Play Store (through Lucky Patcher), install succeeded but Play Store would say not connected to the internet when launched, installed different versions of modded play store gave me the same result, gave up on modded Play Store and uninstalled it though Lucky Patcher and tried installing multiple versions from apkmirror, same thing, app installs, then tells me not connected to the internet when opened, so I thought Google Play Services was at fault, so I uninstalled both it and the Play Store through Titanium Backup, and even though I no longer have either installed, Play Store icon was still on the homescreen (won't launch though), did the Nougat update thinking it would overwrite the system partition and fix the issue, still the same.
Have though about flashing gapps, but thought it was too risky to install on non-AOSP, so now I don't know where to go from here, Help Please?
of course. Just download it via browser
Playstore ( unmodded ) : http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-store/google-play-store-7-3-07-k-all-0-pr-139935798-release/
Latest Play Service for x64 @480 DPI : http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services/google-play-services-10-0-84-release/google-play-services-10-0-84-448-137749526-android-apk-download/
These are the right versions, no clue which you tried.
If youre on CM or the error still remains , download OpenGAPPS by any mirror and let it download the full AROMA package for x64. Flash the zip via twrp and select both missing apps. Watch your steps here, it asks you which to install and which to remove. For me the Aroma Control is a big buggy. You have to play with the volume rockers and the power button to go through the setup.
By the Way : I recommend to follow Google INC there to get the latest beta versions pre playreleased
For the future...
I would not recommend messing with Google apps and Lucky Patcher. This app can really mess up your accounts.
I also don't think it is allowed to discuss any Lucky Patcher related issues on these forums since large parts of "activities" that this app is used for are not completely legal.
The so-called modded APK from theirs can't be installed as it lacks a certificate. However if you achieve perfection after signing the APK and using their "second" method the following message persists:
Code:
Authentication is required. You need to sign into your Google Account.
reference:i63.tinypic.com 2ex1ug7.png
I used one x86 ver of Phonesky, it could do well with Play Store WITHIN ONLY A FEW MINUTES. Then it showed "Service stops. " The modded APK looks promising, there must be some other tricks to bypass the Google Serivce check.
A recent update to the Google Play services makes it crash, regardless of Android version. This is how i fixed it:
Requirements:
Root
A root file explorer
Google Play services APK (make sure to select right Android version and use arm + nodpi): http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services/google-play-services-10-0-84-release/
System app remover: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp
Instructions:
Disable WiFi.
Use System app remover to uninstall Google Play services, this will make it revert to the factory supplied version.
Install the Google Play services apk. The 10.0.84 is the latest working version accordning to my tests.
Create two folders in \data\app and name them com.google.android.gms-1.apk and com.google.android.gms-2.apk. This will stop Google Play services from auto updating. You should be able to create at least one. Do not overwrite any existing file.
Restart and enable WiFi.

Some additional steps to the above.
If Google Play is broken, like it was on mine, you can't download the System app remover. I got it from http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/jumobi...-root-3-6-2019-android-apk-download/download/
(I do not know if that site is safe.)
Download APK to PC, transfer it over USB, and install it with Terminal Emulator.
Also, if you cannot download a File Explorer since Google Play is broken, try some APK like http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/es-glo...-manager-4-1-6-android-apk-download/download/
(again, no idea if that site is safe.)
and install it via Terminal...
Then finally you can click the Google Play services APK. (Or just install it via terminal since by now you know how to...)
NOTE: if you have TF101 with KatKiss 4.4.4 you can't use the one marked Android 4.4W+, it fails and you will wasting hours of your time like I did - use the Android 2.3 version.

After spending 3 hours of figuring out all the above details, I still got the "has stopped" popups, because I had created the file names in terminal as gsm instead of gms. Details are important...
I should add that I did get it working, with my manual installations etc. Thanks!
Works for hours, then PlayServices autoupdate... try 2 times.
Im using katkiss 6.0
My problem is that while trying to flash KK6.0 again it gets stuck on the "Checking connection" step and it continuously prompts the famous "Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped". I have flashed old gapps (1st Feb) but problem persists.
I know there is a general issue about a gplay/gservices version but I am not sure how to proceed now....
This is my solution for Transformer TF101 on firmware KatKiss 4.4.4:
Install Lucky Patcher from here: dl1.revdownload.com/dl1/1701/Lucky_Patcher_v6.4.5__5557_Revdl.com.apk
Open Lucky Patcher, select "Search", type "Google"
Uninstall "Google Play", "Google Play Services" (I also uninstalled "Google App" forever cause I needn't it)
Download open gapps on 2017-07-31 from here: github.com/opengapps/arm/releases/download/20160731/open_gapps-arm-4.4-pico-20160731.zip
Disable Wi-fi
Reboot to TWRP recovery
Flash gapps, wipe cache/dalvik.
Now boot and create 2 folders in /data/app - com.google.android.gms-1.apk and com.google.android.gms-2.apk
Now you can turn on your Wi-fi
Here's my solution about installing right version of Youtube for this gapps and prevent Youtube app from updating. There's ZipSigner app which changes a certificate and "detaches" the app from Google Play. For Youtube app this method causes failure on startup with a security exception. Luckily, I've found another solution:
The latest working version is 11.41.56 on October 28, 2016. Download Youtube app from here: apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/youtube/youtube-11-41-56-release/youtube-11-41-56-21-android-apk-download/download
Disable Wi-fi
Uninstall current Youtube using Lucky Patcher
Now install downloaded version of Youtube
Create a folder com.google.android.youtube-2.apk in /data/app. There should be 1 file com.google.android.youtube-1.apk and 1 folder com.google.android.youtube-2.apk.
This solution should prevent a Youtube app from being updated by Google Play: it begins to update but at the end dialog shown which says there's insufficient storage space.
By the way, you can prevent auto-update for another Google app like Google Drive. Open Lucky Patcher, click on the app and select "App Info" and you'll see a detailed info. All you need to do is to create a folder with name like apk but "-1.apk" has to be replaced with "-2.apk"
Turn on Wi-fi
Phew, good to know it wasn't only me. I've been having this Services issue for some time now on the old 4.4.4 KatKiss, googling for it, updated to 6.0.1 but the problem starts as soon as I even try to install Google Play Services in any way (either flashing GAPPS or installing afterwards with an apk). The device works fine without the Services, but then I can't use Google Play...
So is it yet known who are affected? Is this only a TF101 problem, or are other devices (also non-ASUS ones) also affected? Or is this a KatKiss issue? Or what?
I don't feel like blocking Google from updating the services, that sounds like a stopgap solution that probably makes Services unusable in the long run. Hoping that e.g. Google fixes this problem with a new update...
Solution to my problem... But still need to wait until mr. Google decides to solve it

Yes, there are a lot of devices which faced with this issue. The reason why Google Services stopped working is so-called NEON instruction set for ARM chips. Our tablet has Nvidia Tegra 2 chip which does not support such command set! And no, that will not be fixed!
Here's a quote from the forum (bit.ly/2luHVwu):
If this started on or about the 9th it is due to Google putting ARM neon code into the last update. Older ARM chips do not have neon code functionality and are therefore screwed.
My 6 year old Asus TF101 with a Tegra 2 processor was still running like a champ with android 6.0.1 until last week.

I was having it stop at the "Checking Connection" step too, realized I was using the 2017 gapps package instead of the 2016 one. Check to see if you're using the correct one. However, I'm still having the "Google Services" issue.

I was finally able to get it to work but had to omit the .apk part of the two folder names. UPDATE: sorry, that actually didn't work, in fact, at the moment, no matter what I try, I cannot stop it from updating at some point and having to start all over again...
I rolled back to ASUS 4.0.3 original firmware.
It is working fine for the last 5 days, as long you do not update any of Google apps. The original firmware still has Google Talk pre-installed.
The original firmware is so so slow, when compared with KatKiss 6.0.1 or KatKiss 4.4.4, but at least it is working fine. No FCs at all.
Please note that there are some recent apps that do not work with Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0.3).

Version Matters

Kenpoh, what version of KatKiss?
I found the format of the info in the /data/apps folder different from 4.4.4 to 5.1 to 6.0. I was unable to get things to work with fresh 5.1 ROM flashes so went to 4.4.4 and creating the folder with the "-2.apk" worked in 4.4.4. I think the bottom line is you have to create a folder name that is the same name as the .apk file (with a -2) to "confuse" the auto-update.
Now that I know I can get 4.4.4 to work, I'll see if I can get 5.1 and/or 6.0 to work and share my findings.
UPDATE
OK - I gave up 6.0 required setup a WiFi connection before fully booting. 5.1 wouldn't let me load ES File Explorer from the terminal (failure uri something or other).
For 4.4.4, I:
- Downloaded ROM, SU, GAPPS, Google Play Services 10.0.84 from apkmirror.com
- Did a clean flash
- booted up installed ES File Explorer from terminal
- installed GPS 10.0.84
- reboot
- create folder using the "-2"
- reboot
All is well. I let everything update (including Google Play Games) and everything is running just fine.

Thank you very much for your post. It worked flawlessly!!!
I have a Moto Xoom which is also a Tegra 2 Non-Neon device that is experiencing this Google Play Services issue -
I just had a one-on-one chat with Google support. Since I am running a rooted Moto Xoom (Omni 4.4.4), the only advice Google one-on-one support could provide was to unroot and revert back to Stock (which is 4.1.2. on the Xoom) and/or contact Motorola for support. Google seems to be unwilling to investigate fixes unless folks that are running UNROOTED Tegra2 Non-Neon devices are also experiencing the same issue.
So, if you are running a non-rooted Tegra2 device (like your ASUS TF101's) and are having this issue, please contact Google one-on-one support and let them know via https://support.google.com/googlepla...l=en#contact=1

This worked! Thanks OP. As a bonus tip you can also do this from TWRP: Use the TWRP terminal emulator, switch to /data/app/ and mkdir the aformentioned gms-1 and gms-2 apk dummies.
Hello, on the previous HD Fire 8 we had i was able to install goto app and youtube kids on my daughters freetime app. However she damaged the device and we had it swapped out free. Now when i've tried to do the same i can install everything but under the freetime account when i try to install google play services to allow youtube kids to load it says "this package appears corrupt" i've tried lots of different versions and even downloaded apk editor to repackage it.
Any suggestions would be great?

Try it to install via ADB:
Code:
adb install GmsCore.apk
GmsCore.apk is Google Play services
