I discovered a solution on how to make Google+ work on Phoenix OS. This might enable other apps to work as well, please report your findings.
Instructions:
Download and extract maps-framework.zip
Download latest Google+ APK (I used v9.18.0: APKMirror | Google Drive)
Using Root Explorer or a root file manager of your choice:
Copy com.google.android.maps.xml from the extracted folder and paste it into /system/etc/permissions. Perform a chmod of 644 on the file
Copy com.google.android.maps.jar from the extracted folder and paste it into /system/framework. Also perform a chmod of 644 on the file
To perform chmod in Root Explorer, click and hold on a file, click on the three menu buttons, click on Permissions, press Enter Octal, type in 644, and finally press OK twice. If you're using another root file manager, I could imagine the steps would be similar.
Restart Phoenix OS
Install Google+ APK that you downloaded earlier
Optional: If you want to update it to the latest version, open up the Play Store and update Google+ there.
How I discovered this solution is by trying to install Google+ APK through Lucky Patcher. When I tried to install it, it gave me this error message:

I performed a Google search on "Google Plus install failed missing shared library" and came up with these results which guided me to this solution:

Here's proof that it works:
Astounding work. Thank you so much!
Did you get it to work on your device?
Reinstalling Phoenix and testing today...
Edit: worked like a charm! Also discovered that it would work using the "nodpi" version of G+
It won't recognize that the device is compatible to install it through the Play Store, but it will allow manual installation from APKMirror ^.^
You are a gawd walking amongst mere mortals, good sir.

Thanks for the findings And yeah, initially you have to install it manually, but after you restart your device, you will be able to update it from the Play Store to the new version. And I'm just a regular human, like you and anybody else that's on these forums

Anyway, I'll keep testing, but I suspect several failed installs are due to this same reason... we shall see.

Sounds good. If I have to, I will also try to experiment modifying the model number in build.prop and see what benefits that will bring. Also, I read online somewhere that installing an older version of Google+ might work without having to copy those two files into /system. I might experiment it if the time is right
hey thank you for the info, now i cant install instagram because i get "your device isnt compatible with this aplication", so, if i follow this steps maybe i can install instagram right? i already try install instagram from external apk (downloaded from internet but doesnt work correctly, the app get stuck at white screen and never load) :crying::crying:

Give it a try and see if it lets Instagram install. The worst that can happen is you will be able to install Google+
@meanhacker have you tried any newer gms versions to see if they allow syncing for more apps? I suspect that it's locked down by the devs due to China's restrictions.

Gmail 2.3 is in the market now but when I try to install it I get "Package file was not signed correctly."
I'm currently using Gmail 2.2.1. I even found the apk online and tried to install it manually but it just says installation unsuccessful. Anybody else seeing the same problem? Any fix?
FIX:
Here is the easiest fix I could find from within this thread...
Uninstall 2.2.1 with titanium or root explorer, reboot, then install from the market.
Mine installed fine and runs fine... I'm rooted/s-off and installed the deoxed 2.2 leak and running kings #4... (just for reference)
Same here. Installed fine.

Interesting... I have the exact same setup as you right down to the kernel.
I tried rebooting the phone but that didn't help. I guess I could try to do it via adb, but I was just curious if others saw the same problem.
I am running Vitrous 2.7 (gmail 2.2.1) and it will not install from the market.

Same.
Unsure why.
Do we need a zip of the APK to apply or what?
Virtuous 2.7, won't install from the market.
CM6 - won't install from Market .
Package not signed correctly.
virtuous 2.7 - won't install.
"Installation unsuccessful"
EDIT: just saw this from rmk
"I know about it and expected it. The reason this is occurring is because our Gmail version had to be patched to work with Voice Search. I had been considering a new release the past few days anyway so this will act is a nice catalyst.
Since I am here posting, here's what I was thinking (please provide comments/feedback on it):
I want to move more apps back to /system/app. Prior to Virtuous Buddy and/or EZ-Customizer it was compelling to move as many apps as possible to /data/app. At this point, it just adds another place to have to go to remove stock apps. My thought is, it would be easier for you guys to either use Buddy or Customizer for EVERY stock app.
The trigger for this is two-fold. First, I discovered a bug in the /data/app logic which is just becoming increasingly complicated to deal with. And second, if everything is in one place, I can modify the scripts to move disabled apps rather than delete them, so you can easily toggle them off and on via buddy.
Our end result is the same, you can still easily remove everything, it just becomes simplified. I was thinking this next release would be 3.0 (given the magnitude of the change). Following 3.0, every upgrade would be made available as a small patch, like we had from 2.5 to 2.6.
What do you guys think?"
If you are rooted with a custom ROM, use Root Explorer to rename "Gmail.apk" to "Gmail.apb" then REBOOT. You should now be able to install Gmail update from Market.

I am also getting Installation Unsuccessful -- package not signed correctly...

I searched "gmail" in Root Explorer and found /system/app/gmail.apk and tried to rename that but it would not work. Just keeps reverting to .apk even though it says rename successful.
Could I try moving the gmail.apk to another folder and then downloading?

First thing I do every time is change to RW. Would not change it.
Didn't want to pay for root explorer, but this works:reboot into recovery, mount /system, then use the command prompt to move the Gmail.apk. Reboot and download and install from the market.

My rooted phone crashed the other night - wouldn't boot passed the Galaxy S screen. So I wiped it clean.
When I tried to install a program, the Package Installer was missing from the list of actions.
I flashed back to stock ROM.
It's still not showing up in my actions menu.
When I go to settings/applications/ALL - it shows Package Installer at 0.00B.
What the heck?
Odin back to stock EC05.

I already unrooted and flashed back to stock using these instructions: http://samsungepichacks.com/samsung-epic-hacks/how-to-unroot-samsung-epic-4g/
I will try the method from the website you suggested now though.

Never heard of that website and it keeps timing out on me.
You're better off using the video linked above to Odin back to stock. This will erase all your data, so either start from scratch or back up your apps and whatnot.
Bad news...I followed the instructions from your suggested video.
Put on SPH-D700-DG27-8Gb-REL.tar
Still...the Program Installer doesn't show up on the ACTIONS menu!
It goes Music, then Phone, the gTalk Settings....
Grrrrrrrrrr.
Any other ideas?
So are you trying to side load an application? Meaning you have "Unknown sources" checked under the Settings > Applications menu, and have an apk file to install.
The phone won't install that apk file? Or are you looking for something else to happen when you touch the file on the screen?
If none of the above, then I'm lost at what you're trying to accomplish.
Correct. I'm just trying to load up some apk's that I have on SugarSync/DropBox/SD Card/etc. Unknown Sources is checked.
When I click on the apk - it gives me the action menu. None of those actions is Package Installer. It used to be there, now it isn't. I've loaded all my programs this way in the past.
I tried Odin again and put on the EC05 tar file. Same result. No Package Installer listed in the actions menu.
Man, I just don't know. This is my first time reading of such a problem on the Epic forum.
Using Odin and that tar file gives you 100% stock Froyo. You can then install apk files once the "unknown sources" option is selected.
Did you re-install any other applications after using Odin or restore your data? That could be your culprit, which would mean you'd have to start from scratch (aka clean install).
Starting from total scratch.
It's a mystery.
The only thing I installed was SugarSync so that I could get to the files.
I even tried downloading ASTRO File Manager and using their installer that shows up on the actions menu. That used to work to install...but it doesn't anymore. It just sticks.
I guess maybe I need to go to the Sprint Store. Good thing I flashed her

I just bought the Motorola Triumph for Virgin Mobile and I have the same problem. Well a similar problem. I went to see if there was an OTA update and it says "Install Package not found". So I went to the All list of applications and my Package Installed is 0.00 also. I did notice that a lot of other system apps are 0.00 also. Here's the list of them:

Android Live Wallpapers

Battery Parameter Upgrade
BlueToothTestMode
BTtools
CDASYS
Certificate Installer
DbgCfgTool
E-Compass Calibration

Magic Smoke Wallpaper
Media Container Service
Package Installer
Pico TTS
SD Card test
SIM Toolkit
Sound Recorder
System Update
Terminal Emulator
TTS Service
Voice Dialer
VPN Services
Wifi Comman
Wifi Test
It's a pretty extensive list. I did root it, but I know I had the update problem before I rooted it so I don't think that did anything to it. Hopefully we can figure out why they are messed up for both of our sakes. Thanks!

Wow man... I'm glad you were able to assist the people affected, but the attitude/negative tone is unnecessary. I just saw the post requesting me [or anyone for that matter] to share the files.
I stated that using Odin to go back to stock may be best. He/She was discussing a problem with what many would consider a core function, being able to install an application. Finally, CWM often gives bad flashes, so in my mind it appeared to be a logical suggestion to start with 100% stock and work from there to find the culprit.
I did not share the APK files because I got busy, forgot about the post and missed the request.

mounting is a linux term of attaching a file system, what i ment was to "turn on usb storage"
a .bat file(batch file) can be ran on any windows / dos system. just double click on go.bat to run the payloads. what this app does is generates this batch file as you select the payloads that you want.
hope this helps

HOW-TO FIX DROPBOX on ANDROID L DEVELOPER PREVIEW
This method worked for me, so hopefully it'll do the same for you as well.
1. Download Root Explorer from the Play Store.
2. In Root Explorer navigate to:
Code:
sdcard/Android/data/
3. Delete the com.dropbox.android folder.
4. Next go to your device's root directory (/) and go to:
Code:
/data/system/
5. Delete the dropbox folder.
Just for safe keeping I booted into recovery and to wipe dalvik and cache, rebooted, reinstalled Dropbox and it's been working smoothly ever since.

I actually just managed to get it to work by only deleting sdcard/Android/data/com.dropbox.android
didn't need root, didn't need to do anything in /data/system
Also didn't need to reinstall Dropbox either, it just worked first time after deleting that one folder

I'm on a Nexus 7 2013 with Android L and so far none of these solutions have worked The dropbox team really just needs to update their app.

Please reup this apk.
I tried the method in the OP a few times, but it didnt seem to work at first. Then I used QuickPic to upload some photos to dropbox, which worked like a charm. Now for some reason I am able to directly use the dropbox app itself with no problems. Not sure exactly what fixed it though. Kind of weird.

Accepted. It works
Sadly this tutorial didn't work for me.
Still gettin force close every time.
I tried QuickPic and i can access Dropbox with it, but even after that the normal app still crashes
Start QuickPic, send file and then run Dropbox. QuickPic let the background.
Doesn't work either..

I tried this... didn't work It's weird because it had worked once and now it doesn't, I wonder why.
not work on everytime, that wired
for now
i use solid explorer to access my dropbox files
None of the methods above worked for me. So I restored an old Dropbox apk from a backup and it works very well.

I was finding the same, nothing was working to get it fixed, but I could still access files in dropbox from other apps like ES File Explorer. However I really wanted the camera upload feature. I installed this old apk and it appears to be working, but I haven't tested to see if the camera upload is working. Hopefully it is... Thanks for sharing the apk.

That apk works for me too. Thanks
*** ONLY DO THIS FOR TESTING PURPOSE ***
Those who have got the MM update, could you please check whether uninstalling Facebook app via Titanium makes your auto rotation to stop working? Some say it doesn't, some say it does.
I took a screen record while uninstalling it, make sure you are doing the exact same steps. For the record, uninstalling ONLY the apk is enough to mess it up, I still went on and removed the other Facebook system stuffs out of frustration.
Please comment.
I always uninstall Facebook & "company" and other trash again, and never had problems with rotation on kitkat , lollipop and marshmallow.

Have you solve it?
It seems that is true, and after flashing the stock rom and uninstalling lot of bloatware (except all the facebook stuff) auto rotation works now.

Yes, by re-flashing the stock ROM[emoji23]And then not touching those Facebook related craps.
PS:
@HDxDaniel
Could you tell me whether you have uninstalled any of these apps? Because I don't use these! S Voice isn't listed as it's a system app, I don't use that either.

I uninstalled most of those apps except Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, Play newsletter and maybe another app too.
I noticed one thing today, if you use an app like System App Remover, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp&hl=en
, then uninstall Facebook and other craps, then the rotation works normally. So it could be Titanium doing something crazy here, don't know!
I have the same problem (or I think so), I removed Facebook and Instagram applications with titanium backup and noticed my screen can't auto-rotate now
Anyone can upload the libgnustl_shared.so file ? I don't feel like flashing the whole system file again...
Thanks

After flashing the zip from the first post of this thread, the screen rotation is working again, seems like removing Samsung hub with titanium backup messed things
It looks like only reflashing the stock FW will help
I had the same problem tried every possible solution in this forums none worked
Maybe titanium or i flashed ios emoji for google keyboard!! But that never happened when was on Lollipop!! Now back to Odin
lol

Here you are my friend:

@yucelo I've already found the file in another thread, but thanks anyway
This happened to me multiple times on Lollipop.
Use a file manager with root capabilities and uninstall the .apk files manually
Sent from my SM-N910F using XDA-Developers mobile app
SAR system app remover done the deal

Somebody, give this man a medal! Saved my butt reflashing ROM again. Just copy to system/lib change permission to rw-r--r-- and reboot. You think it's caused by Titanium Backup? In that case? We should notify them.
yeah..... I got this too 2 days ago.
I uninstall some bloatware, including facebook with titanium backup.
then I realize that screen rotation doent work anymore.
I check the gyro, gravity, accel sensor. all works fine, but screen rotation wont work.
So I restore my backup ROM, and everything is fine again.
and yeah.... I just tried uninstalling facebook again, but this time I use System App Remover https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp&hl=en
auto rotation is still works.
Same here... I've done some testing removing bloatware and it's Titanium Backup's fault... I had to reflash the custom rom I'm using several times to reach this conclusion...
I had the same problem, & for whatever reason that version of the file failed to work for me. I had success with this one, following the same steps. https://www.4shared.com/file/ivpHIjBNce/libgnustl_shared.html

Out of curiosity, where did you get that file from?
I've just made a flashable zip with my working libgnustl_shared.so so I can replicate the issue later on and see if this solution works for me...
I downloaded this rom, extracted the zip, & copy pasted libgnustl to system/lib & changed permissions. Hopefully the individual upload will save someone else 1.49gb
The other version of libgnustl that was posted here didn't work for me, I tried it 3-4 times. My phone is a N910T.
It was a happy accident- I was planning on following someone else's success of extracting system.img.ext4 & flashing that file with skip soft, or more likely reverting to stock before I thought 'what if...'
A big thank you to everyone who shared the info to finding a solution
