Chinese ZTE blade A601 , unable to install gapps

Hello,
Recently I've bought in china ZTE BA601 for chinese market. And I can't install any google services on it. I tried to install opengapps and cgapps from custom recovery(TWRP doesn't support this device) and always get message "updates failed because of the wrong version" , though I tried versions for ARM android 5.1, which should be fine. I also tried to install google play services apk, and it crashes immediately - "google play services has stopped...", so I can't install anything related to google - inbox, translate,maps etc.
Any advise for a newbie?

I am also in the exactly same situation. I cannot even install apps from Google Play and that's probably because Google is banned from China. Any ideas?

have you tried Google apps odexed and root system to throw? sorry for my English... Google chrome is also from the market. however, I have it installed

How to root this device?

Lost Play Store and Play Services, anyway to get them back?

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.

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.

Google Services Framework always 'corrupt'

After days of research I'm stuck. My Axon 7 is of Chinese origin, happily running 7.1.1 with production ROM. I'm struggling to get Google services/Play etc. onto it though.
I've tried the various remedies in other threads, e.g. using the Xiaomi installer and using the ZTE 'Google Installer' from the ZTE Market (image below, just to show I've tried!) and even sideloading the various Gapps Pico apks.
Nothing works - whichever route I take, as soon as we get to installing the 'Google Services Framework', it tries to install and then says the 'package is corrupt'. Given that I'm using several different methods, the binaries must be fine, I've taken care.
There HAS to be a magic trick to getting the GSF up and running on this otherwise lovely Axon 7....
[Update] Have installed the latest GSF beta from apkmirror and am making some progress. No doubt version numbers aren't going to match under the hood, but hey, I have something on the screen etc
[Update 2] Got the Play Store up and running and Chrome worked, but after a reboot the Play Store doesn't launch again. Time to start again and work out what order the APKs are needed in?

Help, YouTube is not supported anymore

Like everyone I love to keep all my apps updated and the same goes for YouTube. Recently they pushed an update . Even if I have this phone running on lollipop the playstore says that my device isn't compatible with the app. I tried installing from other sources and even tried installing from other devices through share apps but no use. :crying:

Rom version?

The Rom version is A37fwEX_11_171209
I came to know that few of my friends with same phone have similar issues too

youtube go still works great. you should use it instead.

Hello everybody.
If you are the one who are suffering from non compatibility of YouTube app in your phone, then this post is for you all.
Firstly Download Updated Version Youtube apk from Apkmirror.com, Before downloading YouTube apk you must know the Architecture and dpi of the mobile which you are using. Those can be known by checking it on Droidapp which is available in Playstore.
After downloading, Turn Off "Do not install from Unknown Sources" option. You don't need to worry about viruses or malwares, because Apkmirror.com uploads apks directly from the Developers.
If this install works then go ahead and stream YouTube.
If that thing doesn't work out.. Then go to application management and clear off the data of YouTube app, Google Play Store app, Google Play Services app, and also Google Services Framework app. Then try to install the apk which has been downloaded previously from Apkmirror.com. It will work.
Unfortunately, if this method also doesn't work.., then go to apkpure.com and download the latest verison of YouTube apk. Install it, it works for sure.
This is what I did with my phone to run the latest versions of YouTube app.
I use OPPO A37 mobile. So this method is most recommended for OPPO A37 mobile users. Other mobile users can also try this method and check if it works.
Try multiple times with various versions and related architectures and dpis' it will work

Basically, it is a YouTube app compatibility issue with Oppo devices. In this situation, you can try the following solutions:
you can follow three things:
Solution one - Clear Cache & Data of Google Play Store and YouTube app. Reboot the device and reinstall the latest update.
Solution two - Sideload YouTube app from third-party apk site. We suggest using Apkmirror and Apkpure. It seems like Apkpure work fine for the users.
Solution Three - Download and Install YouTube Go. The official alternate version of YouTube app.
