Per subject title, Google Play store stopped working after Google Play Services v7.3.29 update
Anyone else seeing this ?
I also had problems with Google Play Services 3.29. Not only did it not work, but it messed up all apps that used location services. Another weird thing was that when I would reboot that after a minute the blue light on the front would start pulsing for around five minutes then stop. To fix this all you have to do is install 7.0.99. I tried downloadin 7.0.99 from the web and it always got parse errors so I just transfed it for my cell. 7.0.99 is the latest version that works properly on the Fire TV. All versions after 7.0.99 did not work correctly for me. I am just gonna keep Google Services updated with the same update from my cell, cause that seems to work for me.
How do you stop v7.0.99 from automatically update to v7.3.29 ?
I uninstalled v7.3.29 and install v7.0.99, it works for a while then auto upgrade it back to v7.3.29. I have auto update disabled and that doesn't seem to be able to stop it
So I uninstalled Google Play Services v7.3.29 and DID NOT replace it any previous version AND
My Play store started working again. I rebooted a few times to make sure it is no fluke and the Play store still works
so the workaround for me is to remove Google Play Services entirely from FireTV

I do not use the Play Store, cause I am not rooted, but I never auto update any apps on any droid device. I actually use 1Mobile Market, Aptoide and Mobogenie to keep as updated n my Fire TV, but I update apps one at a time. They all say I need to update Google Play Services, but I choose not to udate and it doesn't update. You are gonna need to have Play Servics installd or apps like Gmail will no longer work. The lates Gmail requires that you have 7.0.99+ instlled or it will not work.

Wow! I was VERY skeptical but it really was that simple! I just assumed google play services was essential but it works now...Thanks!
Works for me, but now "Market Helper" won't work without the Google Framework. I don't know if that matters.

For me, Market Helper seemed to change what version of the YouTube app was available. (Tablet vs Android TV). However, the Android TV version updated at a certain point and did not want to cooperate as nicely. Needed to downgrade that one.
Off topic but I have been trying to get the playstore installed on my rooted aftv. Have tried several methods including renaming the files with no spaces. Everything seems to install fine but when I try to login under existing I get error that my email or password is incorrect and new login just goes back to choosing existing or new account page
Delete.

So I deleted Google Play Services and that did work, however some of my apps wouldn't work without it installed. So I re-installed Google Play Services and figured out how to keep it from updating.
First thing I did was:
go into the AFTV Settings (the one it came with)
go to APPLICATIONS, then APP STORE, and turn click on AUTOMATIC UPDATES so it says OFF.
(I don't know if that's only for Amazon's Appstore, but it's part of what I did.)
Then, open Google Play and:
Tap the hamburger icon (three horizontal lines) on the top-left.
Tap Settings.
Tap Auto-update apps.
To disable automatic app updates, select Do not auto-update apps.
So far, Google Play Services has not updated!! I can post the Settings.apk and Google Play Services v7.3.29.apk if anyone needs it.

Yes. That would be helpful if youd post V7.3.29 Thanks
So I checked the AFTV today, and it looks like it did update.
However, my Google Play Store IS working!!
I just realized in my post that I said I would post v7.3.29, which is in fact the updated version. I can give you the same exact one that's on my system if you want to see if that works for you.

I already posted that 7.0.99 is the newest version that works with the fire TV. Any version with a higher version number does not work correctly. 7.3.29, causes problems with apps that use location services and causes the light on the front to start pulsing about a minute after each reboot. My guess is that some of the versions with version numbers higgher than 7.0.99 are made for devices that have much different specs than the Fire TV therefore they do not work as they should. I have tried every version from 7.0.99 on and 7.0.99 is the only version that functions as it should. I got my 7.0.99 version from my Galaxy Note and transfered it to my Fire TV and it works perfectly. Maybe people should check their phone or tablet and see which version of Google Play Services they are running, if its 7.0.99, transfer it to your Fire TV and it should be fine, but do not update past 7.0.99 or it will not function correctly. 7.0.99 and 7.3.29 are actually the same version of Google Play Services, but since Google Play Services is device specific they have different version numbers. 7.0.99 and 7.3.29 are the latest versions of Google play Service for the specific devices they are made for. There are several apps that do this, and a good example is Facebook, depending on the device you have the latest version of Facebook will have a different version number from device to device, cause hardware is different and apps are made differently depending on hardware. To see what I mean just go to the actual Play Store on your browser and look at Google Play Services and it will say latest version followed by saying varies by device, and it says the same for most apps in the play store.

Once your AFTV is rebooted, the Google Play Store will stop working, report back if you are seeing something different. Thx
Appreciate if anyone can post Google Play Services v7.0.99.apk here. Thanks.

Thanks for the update. I am not sure why the APKMirror apk did not work for you. Make sure you download the version ending in "036" (the 3 numbers at the end of the file name after the dash). Quoting:
To figure out the right version of Google Play services for your Android device look at the last 3 numbers in the parentheses. You'll see something like -XYZ where:
X defines Android version:
0 for Android <5.0
4 and 7 for Android >=5.0
8 for Android TV
Y defines CPU architecture:
1 for armeabi
3 for armeabi-v7a
4 for arm64-v8a
7 for x86
Z defines DPI:
0 for universal
2 for 160
4 for 240
6 for 320
8 for 480

Since I have updated to 4.2.2 OTA (all Stock) installing Apps using the Google Play website does not seem to really work.
When I click install on play.google.com nothing happens on the phone until I open the Google Play App. Seems like that the service that used to connect to google play regulary does no longer run?
Anyone else seen this?
Related note ... I did the google framework service thing to get it to show the OTA after installing the update my phone did not show up in play.google.com at all until I have installed a random app using the google play app.
Open Play Store and check your auto update settings. Probably you need to enable it.
The autoupdate setting has nothing to do with it; I'm experiensing the same issue, the download starts, but it takes 1 minutes before it starts, even if I have Google Play opened on my phone

OK I have fixed it.

This is what worked for me:
Go into your device's app manager. Select Google Play app. Click on uninstall updates. This will take it back to the factory setup state. I then had to reboot the device as I initially got a message that Google Play has stopped working when I tried to open the app. After reboot, open Google Play and accept the terms and conditions. This got the install from website issue fixed.
Fire TV /Stick are good with Amazon's ecosystem but with this method you can add any app or game you want from the play store
This method was tested on Fire Tv Stick but it should work with any Fire Tv device.

Good tutorial but I didn't do any of that to install MOD EDIT - Removed? Thought you found a workaround to get Google Play Store working....MOD EDIT - Removed is a great alternative to the Play Store though.
thanks for the tutorial
You are welcome... It's true that if you don't need apps that ask for google services you can jute use MOD EDIT - Removed app, but that will limit your app selection to almost half of google play store

Thats true, a lot of apps at least need the Google Services. So even though you can get them from MOD EDIT - Removed they wouldn't work. Good point.

Hello inwisso,
Thanks for your Great tutorial and for the workaround to get the Google Play Store working on the Fire Phones !
However I have noticed that if I install the "Google Play Service" from the 3er link:
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...ices-8-1-14-2244331-030-android-apk-download/
Although the newest APPs from Google, like:
YouTube v10.37.58
Google-Drive v2.3.283.31.34
Are now working flawlessly, some streaming APPs stopped working, and also sometime the FireTV freezes and also Crashes...
Apparently the version of "Google Play Services" of the 3rd link, is affecting in some way the smooth work and the normal functionality of the FireTV units ... Use with caution !
So, I was forced to use only the 4 Google APPs from the 1st link, and I have decided not to update the "Google Play Service" to a newer version:
https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=73036323a69e3cf1&id=73036323A69E3CF1!1484&authkey=!AIVXLFXAOWDeM0Q
Does Anyone here has experienced the same strange behaviors on their FireTV, or has tested any of the following latest versions:
Google Play Store_5.9.12 Released September 15, 2015)
Google Play services_8.1.15 (Released September 15, 2015)
Google Play services 8.1.18 (Released September 26, 2015)
Thanks, if you guys find a better performing "google play services" version I can update the link.
Are you using fire tv or fire tv stick ?
Inwisso, I'll try to test various versions of the "Google Play Services" APP, and let you know what works best ...
However, as the new YouTube and Google-Drive APPs requires the latest version of "Google Play Services ", I doubt that these two are going to work.
Sweeeet XDA community is the best

For YouTube viewing there's always the "YouTube for Android TV" app.
Can't login, but it works well enough, I find v1.0.5.5 works best as the latest v1.1.16 crashes on the Fire TV Stick.
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/youtube-for-android-tv/youtube-1-0-5-5-android-apk-download/
As I said before, it is that apps like YouTube and Google Drive, that have been updated most recently, all need to run the latest version of "Google Play Service," but unfortunately when installed then affects others FireTV APPs, that worked well before.
Hopefully with the NEW upcoming FireOS -5 "Bellini", that will be released in October 5 to all the FireTV Models, and that is based on Android 5.1 Lollipop (API level 22), we could then have more compatibility with all newer APPs.
http://www.aftvnews.com/fire-os-5-with-alexa-coming-to-1st-gen-fire-tv-and-fire-tv-stick-in-october/
https://developer.amazon.com/public...re-tv/docs/device-and-platform-specifications
Who knows, maybe we could also install some new APPs Exclusive for Android-TV and launchers, as the "Android-TV Leanback Launcher":
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.leanbacklauncher
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...-launcher-1-1-2-1994870-android-apk-download/
So then we have to wait to October 5, to see what it is and how this FireOS-5 "Bellini" works.
I really hope Amazon has been able to do an excellent job with this new version of the FireOS-5, and that they will come with some new things and fixes !!

Thank you for the tutorial. I tried it but I can never get Google Play to connect.
This is my second stick. I returned my previous stick and got the Google Nexus.
I won this one and thought I would give it it a try. Maybe there was a patch between the posting and Dec 2nd.
I also had the stick lock up and had to unplug it and let it reboot.
Can someone who has Google Play store working on Fire TV/Stick confirm if Vudu app works or not?
Thanks!
Would this work on fire tv 2?

Yes I have similar issues. I have Fire TV BOX and I just side load connecting the box to my PC over Ethernet. No problems there I can get the files over.
The problem is that some programs work fine with Google Chrome to browse the web which is really cool...
but.....
On a lot of apps like "Vice" / Viceland TV, it boots up then says something like "your version of Google Play Services is not compatible please uninstall it" So anyway I can get the latest Google Play Services .apk but look there are 28 VARIANTS! http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services/google-play-services-9-8-77-release/
How do I know which variant I have on my FireTV BOX of Android that the Amazon front end is running on?
Is there just a simple Google Play Store and Google Play Services I can download once and it will auto-update?
Thanks
I have tried with no success installing Google Play services and Google Play store on my FireTV BOX.
FireTV BOX version Fire OS 5.2.1.1 and I have no problem getting the apk's to my device by side-loading over Ethernet using adbLink and adbLink works find for all other app, so it must be either I need to be rooted or I have the wrong Google Play Store and Google Play Service .apk's
Can anyone help me one this with my FireTV BOX version to get Google Play Services and Google Play store on my device so I can run apps which require Google Play Services?
Thanks
I wonder have any of you ever thought to disable the "Not In My Home" (com.amazon.tv.nimh.apk) service? I gather it's a fairly new (Firmware 5.2.1.1), thing. In case you haven't worked out what this does it basically blocks (from Amazon's POV), unwanted Apps.
Now I'll confess to not having bothered to do my Homework in this, myself. There seems to be little hope that this is the one thing keeping Google Play Services, and by proxy the PlayStore off the Fire TV2, but I haven't seen anything that dismisses it either.
But, the idea that One could in theory, at least side load the Leanback Frameworks onto such a Device, has at least given me some hope that I might be able to get it working on some Chinese Box. One of these days.
I suppose, a better question to ask here, considering I still a noob to this AFTV2 Box; Would be did either of Google's Services / PlayStore, even ever work on the AFTV2?
someone has managed to fix it? i had an apk called mega tv player runing perfect until yesterday that my fire stick was factory reseted by mistake, now i can't load the app or any other apk that ask for google play services.
MOD EDIT - Removed has older apks of apps if you need them (currently a reliable site, but don't blame me once they start distributing rootkits.. ) - also, there are at least two methods out there to patch play service dependencies "out of" apps I know of.
Google and find out.

Hi all,
I have been using this phone for a couple of months. I installed the Google services and Play store using this MIUI 8 Google installer which has been floating around the internet. My Google Play Store is up to date.
I have been quite happy with the phone except for the following issues:
(i) When I install larger files over Google Play Store, it will crash when the download is finishing. It will pop an error message saying "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped", and I am unable to get the downloads to work. The next few attempts at opening the Play Store will show the same message, but it will eventually open, but the download will fail.
(ii) Connectivity - 3G / 4G. My previous phones, Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 and Samsung Note 4 had no such issues. They were able to connect to the network and not get dropped frequently. This affects me when I play games, and I will have lost connectivity time to time (even when in the open). I checked the network bands and my country's bands (Singapore) are compatible.
(iii) GPS - I had been playing Pokemon GO / Ingress. It does get very annoying when the messages "GPS not found" keeps popping up, especially when indoors. One soft fix is to turn Wifi on and off. I am not sure why this fix works, but I had already enabled wifi scanning even when wifi is not on.
Does anyone else here have these issues? If so, do you have any fix for them?
Thank you everyone in advance.
I suggest to you to download playstroe.apk from the internet instead of the installer of the miui..its not install the updated version of the play store..and dont forget to able playstore to run in the background in the assist manager and download google service.apk if you need more help or something talk to me
Thank you for your prompt response!
I can try reinstalling Play Store. I checked the version and it is exactly the same one as my Samsung Note 4 (which had been recently updated). There are also quite a few versions floating around and I am unsure of which one to install. As it stands, I think I will reinstall the exact same version and see how it goes. I had also installed Google Services.
But thank you for the reminder - I had already added the Play Store to my protected list for it to run in the background, but the problem still persists.
Been looking at APK mirror, and there are too many versions of Play Store.
May I check which one should be the version I should be installing?
Edit: I installed the latest versions of Play Store and Play Services from apkmirror, and the large downloads still failed.
I checked, and my Google Play store is updated by the ZTEMarket, so I assume the version is fine.
Has anyone else experienced such issues before?

Yep, I've gotten to 98% before on a 1gb file to have "Playstore has stopped" error... Very frustrating...
Ive finally manbded to install B013 - its loaded fine. Now I have a message saying "To start Android, enter your password".
I've never previously had to enter a password - I bought the phone from Ali Express.
How do you get past this ? Is there a generic password ? HELP PLEASE !!!
I installed my B13 update OTA and didn't experience the password issue, but I see that you already resolved that problem (in another thread).
I still can't get my phone to download larger files over Google Play Store and it's getting very annoying. Anything which requires WiFi to download seems to have this issue.
Anyone knows any solution to this?
EDIT: I found the solution.
Go to Apps > Google Play Store > Permissions. You will see that the Permissions for Storage is UNCHECKED. It looks like when Google Play Store is installed, it comes unchecked by default. Hopefully this will be helpful for anyone experiencing this issue.

Problems Google services, play store Axon 7 version B13
Before I had version B10 and the play store and other GOOGLE applications worked perfect, but after upgrading to version B13, the GOOGLE services that had possibly been installed by the store of aliexpress where I bought, since the google services did not originally come in the smartphones Manufactured in China, have disappeared, and even though I have reinstalled, they do not work, standing in the "checking data" field, it seems that this version is incompatible with google play services!
Anyone know how to fix this?
problem google play services
I still have not solved the problem, because when I open the play store, it keeps the message "checking data" and does not leave this message and the options of permissions are all marked "on"
Is there any specific version of google services for this model axon 7 version B13, or should any one work?
I had exactly the same as you. Purchased from Ali express. Update to build b013, if you get a password message just perform a factory reset. To install Google play store, go to the zte market (Chinese version of play store). Even though it's in Chinese it's easy to type in Google play into search then simply install. Sorted. After that works without any problems
Here you go
google play running

I entered the ZTE store and installed GOOGLE INSTALLER, which should be the installer of some tools needed to run Google services, because soon after installing it, the play store and other services like gmail, started to work, so I think it was Something that was missing to work and now is perfect!

I've never previously had to enter a password - I bought the phone from Ali Express.
How do you get past this ? Is there a generic password ? HELP PLEASE !!!

This app shows that Google Service is ok but Google Framework is not installed. When I choose Repair, nothing happens. I downloaded and installed Google Services Framework 7.1.1 from apkmirror, but nothing has changed. Do you have Google Framework installed?
KatKiss 4.4.4 has kept our TF101s going for years, but the latest Google Play Services update seems to not be compatible and leads to constant "Google Play Services has stopped" messages, along with occasional, similar messages from gapps, and Services Framework.
Clearing caches and data, rolling apps back to factory will stop the messages. But make anything Google more or less unusable. Updating Play Services again starts the "has stopped" messages.
We have 2 TF101s, my wife keeps her auto-update on, I don't. Hers started first, so I went ahead and let mine update to see if it would have the same problem. As soon as Play Services updated, the errors began.
I know there are KatKiss versions for 5/6, but have always seen 4.4.4 recommended as the most stable for the TF101. However, we mostly use our tablets for reading with Play Books, so if there's another KatKiss version that Play Services still works with, I'd consider taking a performance hit just to get things working again. Or if there's another ROM someone can recommend that's confirmed still working with the latest Play Services update, that's stable on the the TF101, I'd be down for trying that too.
It's amazing how many years these tablets have worked for us. Obviously we are approaching the day when they will just be too old for most things, but I'd like to get a little more time out of them as our eBook readers.
TIA for any tips and assistance.
It's doing it on all versions of KatKiss.

Well, that's good to know, though bad news to hear.
Subscribing for updates as well...my transformer is still doing duty as the slingplayer -> chromecast and netflix -> chromecast hub but seems to be extra broken with this last google play services update.
Same problem here on two TF101, one 4.4.4, one stock.
I did factory reset and not registered my google email.
After this I disabled all Google on my tablets using Advanced App Permisions and now I am using Youtube in browser and the rest of my app from Amazone Appstore.
Shame on you GOOGLE!
I have some apps not free from Playstore, I spend my money and now they are useless, should I sue Google for this?

Same problems on a TF101 with original stock Android version!
I'm having the same problem, my TF101 is with Katkiss 6.0
Okay guys, I've just tried something and it seems to be working for me. I went to apps settings and uninstalled all updates for google play services. So far it seems to be working.
Same for me
Thanks, good to see I am not the only one with problems.
Google problems started on Katkiss MM 6.0-029,
Flashed back to Katkiss 4.4.4-036. after update google play same problem

I did the same but after a while google play services found a way and did auto-update
Me too.
Hopefully somone can find a fix.... or is there another stable ROM we can go to?
OMG, Saturday I got the same problem and thought I had made some mistake. Then I spent most of the weekend trying to get the unit working. And it turns out it's Google who messed up?
I tried KatKiss 4.4.4 and 6.0 and huge problems with both.
I am now flashing with Asus stock. Are you saying that too is broken?
Do you have auto-updates enable? Since I've posted (a few hours ago) it's been running fine.

I installed fresh new 4.4.4. After installing, Google ask for Google account. Few minutes later, problem start. I have no time to disable auto-update. And, if somehow I can manage to not let Google Play services to update (how?), I can not install Youtube, Gmail etc. Please advice. Thanks.

Try to skip adding a ggogle account on startup. Add it later and immediately disable auto updates. Not sure if you can set up google play settings before adding an account, but you could try.

will try right now, thanks.
I managed to uninstall updates on Google Play services and Google Play store. But, every time I uninstall updates, in Google Play settings I found checked by default the option to auto-update! So, I must be very fast: uninstall updates- go to Google Play settings - uncheck autoupdate!
ANYWAY, Youtube and any other app related to Google wont start "unless you update Google Play". And, after installing Youtube, the repetitive message "has stopped" strating to appear again. TABLET USELESS.
EDIT NOTE: every time Google Play find a way to autoupdate EVEN I check in settings to disable autoupdates. I think is refer to disable autoupdate for other apps, not for itself.
About the Asus stock ROM:
Good: no popups!
Good: much faster than the KitKatt 4.4.4 that was installed for a couple of years. (Is there a way to take an installed ROM and make it fresher? For instance cold boot, or what?)
Bad: I had to download an APK to get Google Play running, so I could download Kindle app and a decent web browser.
Bad: After I updated the Gmail app, that app dies randomly when I read mail. So I reverted it back to the stock app again. Odd that even Google's own apps are not stable.
Happy now that I have my belowed TF101 running again. I will put KatKiss back again, soon. What's your experiences with KatKiss 6 vs 4.4.4?
Could someone explain in more detail how to stop the auto-update once I'm in KatKiss?
Same Issues Here // B80 TF101
I've been battling this as well. I just pulled out my TF101 from the drawer its been sitting in for two years. I was stoked when I saw the 6.0 KatKiss! Put TWRP on and flashed it right away. Started getting the dreaded "Play Services" errors and issues. I've since reflashed twice, tried the 5.1 version (twice), the 4.4.4 version and back to the 6.0. Each time wiping, installing the rom, superSU, the correct Gapps and then wiping cache/dalvik.
Seems the only thing I can do is uninstall the updates to Play services to keep it stable, until it auto updates. I'd like to use this in the truck this summer for Google Maps or Waze, but if I can't get it stable back in the drawer it will go.
Kind of crazy that a 6 year old tablet still runs this well!
If I find anything I will post it for others to take advantage of, and if anyone finds something, even minor, please post it! :good:

Try to uninstall the play services updates while offline and alter the definitions of auto update. Mine is running stable since yesterday.

soo..I just got an unusual notification on my 2019 fire hd10...that the play services wont run until updated? I didn't catch the entire message.
I went into the play store and the notification disappeared.
help?
I had the same thing. I cleared the notification and so far it hasn't appeared again. Everything still works.
Others have reported it, and the popular theory is that it's a harmless bug in the latest version of Google Play Services.

Playstore is not a trusted app
Always make installable copies of all your apps and current updates. The less Playstore the better... it never runs on my 10+ unless I need it.
I trust no one...but my cat. with my cat? I know EXACTLY where I stand at all times with her.

word.
....currently getting groomed by my cat, apparently I need it?
anywho..got the notification AGAIN today, and this time I was actually able to initiate an update.
fortuitous given my tablet just updated the OS today.
I'm seeing this as well on my Fire HD 8 (2020), and it's very concerning.
I've also uninstalled Google Play Services and reinstalled the latest version of Google Play Services from APKStore (you cannot do an in-place upgrade, there's only a "deactivate" button which doesn't work).
The error goes away temporarily, but eventually returns a week or so later.
And we're not alone -- hundreds of complaints on this issue in the Reviews section of Google Play Services on the Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gms&hl=en_US&gl=US
Is this just a temporary bug? Or is it an indication that the little "secret" of sideloading Google Play Store is over, at least if you want to use your Fire to play games requiring Google Play? Wonder if Google and Amazon are finally saying "no more?" I hope not.
...I think the fact most of us are running the play store in manual update only mode is the problem. it cant auto update the play services, and thus coughs up this error?

Playstore will let you know when you go to Playstore if it needs updating. I've package block and run Playwhore on manual update only for over 1.5 years with no problem.
All it's parent apps need to be running at boot up ie Google play Services. You may need to delete and recreate your Google account if it really goes off the rails. Reboot, reboot, reboot...

Thank you. I thought the same thing, so I reset Fire and set Store to auto update everything (except Kindle and Alexa).
Still getting error.
My App Details for Google Play Services shows:
App installed from Google Play Store
version 21.33.13 (100300-393339024)

it was a thought, that said after I was FINALLY presented the option to update the service its not done it again.
also..I've owned FOUR samsung tablets over the years and every single last one of them, without fail, whenever playstore has had an update, I've had to manually initiate the update, it patently REFUSES to do so on its own, and thats AFTER running every troubleshooting known to man AND consulting samsung support.
its an android thing apparently ^^;

did you manually install everything? or use the fire toolbox thingy app?
I ran this guide for my tablet. https://www.androidpolice.com/2021/06/21/install-play-store-amazon-fire-tablet/
I have Google Play Services 21.30.16, so it seems mine hasn't updated since I installed it a few months ago.
How are you getting it to update?

I rarely use Playstore. Updates there are set to wifi only, and wifi is always disabled.
Samsung tech support is useless.
Try googling the error codes.
I use ApkExport to make installable copies of my apps so on a reload no Playstore needed.
You can also use those copies to load other devices... if you want.
I was able to go into the play store and tap on 'update' on the play services.
-shrugs- it worked, thats all I cared about.
Play Store is telling me 21.30.16 is the latest version of Google Play Services and I'm up to date. APK Mirror is showing newer versions, though. Weird.

Thank you! It's Google Play Services, not Google Play Store, that needs updating, right?
I manually installed all four APKs - using the Android Police instructions, too.
