What is Google 'build.prop Reverend Kyle' ?
I need to download it, or...?

No that's an instruction. I was on my phone and didn't feel like typing an extended reply.
Go to the google web site and in the search bar enter 'build.prop Reverend Kyle' (without the quotes). The first result is a 7 minute video where this person, Reverend Kyle, explains how to edit the 'build.prop' file. Build.prop is a file in Android that is read by the system at boot which often causes market compatibility issues. You shouldn't go screwing around in it, but somewhere in there exists an attribute called 'lcd pixel density' or something to that effect. The market (or gPlay, if you'd rather) will only work when certain conditions for this attribute are correct (240, I think, but I get that confused all the time). I'm in the middle of writing a 50 page report about software prototyping and usability testing or I'd go into further detail. But the good Reverend explains everything in (almost excruciating) detail. His videos are some of the best resources that there are for HP TP (that's HP Touchpad) users, who want to learn to modify their TP's. Watch the vid, repeatedly if necessary. Watch his other vids, they're all great. He's also got a forum of his own (again you can find it with Google or any other search engine), which is excellent, and an Android app, but I'm guessing you're still having problems with the Play store.
Good luck.
Let me know if you're still having problems after you try editing build.prop.
EDIT: The Rev's actually one of the more kind and helpful people around here. I'm not. I just don't have the time to walk you through a step by step. I will however point you in a direction where you might find the answer yourself.

Resolved ;-)
Thanks for a detailed answer.
I resolved the problem with gapps, started to install through ROM manager, and automaticaly, Play Store started to work, without finishing instalation of gapps, because I canceled installation and started Play Store, it has worked...

Can't install apps from the Play store (rpc:s-5:aec-0) error

This started happening about 30 minutes ago. I can no longer install any app from the play store. It always pops up the error message: rpc:s-5:aec-0 . I have tried the two methods below to clear it up, but I still can't install anything. Anyone know any other steps I can try?
Method 1:
Open system settings
Go to Applications (or Apps) >> All
From all apps select Google Play Store >> Clear Cache and Uninstall updates
Again, from All>>Download Manager >> Clear Cache and Data
Finally, All >> Google Services Framework >> Clear Cache and Data
Now, rerun Google play store.
Method 2:
Go to system settings>> Accounts>>Google>>remove your Gmail account
Now from settings>>Apps>>All> Force stop, Clear data and cache for Google Play Store, Google Service Framework and Download Manager (like in method 1)
Now again go to settings>> Accounts>>Google>>Add your gmail account
Restart your android and then accept all the Google terms and setup Google settings
Rerun Google Play Store and update or install your app.

I had this same issue right after installing Alliance rom V7 and it was still there after returning to a previous back up. I was however able to fix the issue by reinstalling my apps from a titanium backup that I made previously. After this my apps are once again visible in the market and I am able to download.

I got the same error. Method 1 made it worse because after applying method 1, when I started Google Play I got "no connection - retry" error. Only after i restored Google Play and google service framework that the 'no connection error' went away, but the original RFC error is still there.
I tried everything I could find on google and nothing worked.
Google itself didn't even know how to fix it. It's listed on their 'problem list' page and it looked nobody is working on it anyway:
"We’ve received reports that some users are getting "RPC:S-5:AEC-0" while trying to download apps.
If you're receiving this error, removing and re-adding your Google Account on your device may help resolve this issue. We’re currently investigating a permanent solution.
We’ll continue to update this page with developments, so check back soon.
Issue first reported on: March 21, 2013
Last updated on: August 1, 2013"

The Google Play store/services on my Iuni U2 stopped working after the update :(

Does anyone know how to fix this? I bought it from etotalk.com and I asked them to root and download play store onto my phone (which worked) and I updated my phone to the latest version. After the reboot, the play store closed when I opened it and the error message 'Google Play Services has stopped working' came up.
I uninstalled them and tried reinstalling the services and the google play store kept crashing over and over again.
I re-installed the services using aptoide app market and the iuni market, but it kept saying I needed to download google play services. I have the framework installed btw.
same problem here
I played clash of clans until a high level and lost my village because of don't have google play services for login to account
if any 1 can help us to install google play on our devices please do it faster
note: please describe for me easily and simple it's my first android phone !!! so I will be happy if you describe each step for me
with special thanks and I am sorry for my bad English ,excuse me if I used silly words
Probable SOLUTION.
Go to Settings>Applications>All
check if google play services is present there. If present then clear its cache and data and then restart your phone.
If not present, then try searching GAPPS for your Android version/Custom ROM and flash it.
As you mentioned that it is already rooted then flashing GAPPS wouldnt be much difficult.
Read the appropriate guide before flashing any GAPPS

Final tweaks: Google Play Music, and English UI

[SOLVED! Please jump to my last response in this thread]
Hi All,
So I just picked up the Honor X1 (a.k.a Mediapad X1) (Chinese version) of this awesome device. I love everything so far, with a few exceptions.
DISCLAIMER: I looked ALL over the web, including but not limited to XDA and google, but didn't see anything relevant and/or that worked.
So here goes. Hopefully someone has more of a clue than I do of how to get things working
1.) Google Play music doesn't work. When I try adding an account, I immediately get the "Couldn't sign in - There was a problem communicating with Google server. Try again later". Message. Note that it doesn't actually attempt anything. It goes immediately to to this message. Yes I have an active data connection (wifi and 3G are both working), Yes I installed google play services (march 16th 2015 build), and google play music (march 16th 2015 build), and went through the "App center" and tried to install everything (except google plus. See item #2 below)
2.) Google + fails to install with a "silent install failed". I also tried downloading the APK and it just says it fails to install. I do not care at all for google + but I want multiple google accounts which is why I am trying this.
3.) Multiple google accounts? especially for hangouts, email, and google play music?
4.) The UI is all in Chinese. I know this is to be expected, but I was hoping there would be some way to force it into all-english. (Please note: I am NOT rooted).
5.) Any way to install GasBuddy? THANX!
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
THANK YOU

Salam ya Basha! Shukran for the response.
I actually did try rooting, but everywhere I looked the information says use RootGenuis which fails at the last step (one tough phone), and if i click the "root manually" button it takes me to a dead link to a page in Chinese.
Any idea how I can succesfully root this to start with?
Also, did you by any chance figure out how to change the UI into something more usable (Arabic is an option but I prefer English)
Mashkooooooor

Thanx! Rooting worked via VROOT, although my laptop is now loaded with spyware / malware I can't seem to get rid of.
I installed Google plus (via sideloading the APK. It didnt show up in the play store), which gave me multiple accounts (by following the link you provided).
I also got Google play music to work. After installing G+, I had to remove the google account and re-add it, and voila google play music works.
For the benefit of others:
1. Root (via Vroot/iRoot but watch out where you download it from)
2. Follow the guide to install the google maps via a root-enabled file explorer (I used root explorer)
3. Reboot
4. Remove all google accounts and re-add them
5. Launch google music and set up normally
I will mark this as solved. THANX
Thanx!

I had the same error after following the instructions. On another forum there was a suggestion to download 1Mobile Market APK by searching it on google. THis worked for me. After downloading google play services the Google play store was able to download apps. I did need to update Google Play services through the play store but after that my Play store app is working like any other android device. Be careful though there are some virus type apps on the 1Mobile Market app.
Recap:
Error when downloading apps through play store.
Download APK for 1Mobile Market
Download Google Play Services from 1Moblie Market
Update Google Play Services through Play store app
Enjoy downloading any app you want on your device

Quick tip for better performance, deactivate sync for all the Google account services you don't use or need. I drastically improved performance on my Remix OS installation by deactiving photo sync, my photo collection is huge! When I stoped it, the USB stick stopped constantly flashing.

For me it is not working for now, but will try it again later. I can install it and everything but then when I choose to install any app the error occurs.
The OS alone is working even on OS X

I followed the instructions and it worked great however, after I reboot and went back in, Play Store would not login/load. It keep telling me that there's an error retrieving information from server. It is connected to WiFi fine. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps: Clear Cache (and Data) for Google Play Store, Play Services, Play Service Framework and I've even tried to Uninstall Updates for Google Play Store but still has the same problem after several reboots.
Oh Lord!!! MY HERO! thank you thank you!

Hello all,
I hate to ask for help but I need to ask in this situation.
Could someone with Play Store working see if Star Wars Commander is available from the Play Store?
Some apps are incompatible with certain devices & I need to know if Star Wars Commander works with Remix OS 2.0
Reasoning: Im going to buy an all in one PC with touchscreen to run Remix. However, I don't have anything to try it on before I buy the PC, & want to ensure Star Wars Commander works before I spend my $.
Thank you in advance someone!

[Guide] How to fix any broken Play store

Hello everyone reading this!
I found out that no one really has a solution how to fix a broken play store. Many people are saying "reinstall it" or "factory reset your phone" but this wasn't really a solution for me.
Reinstalling only did it worse because then i kept getting a "Play store stopped working" popup so after a week of trying things i finally found the solution.
So if you don't have Play store anymore or it just stopped working then you should try this out!
First try these things and after that try the solution that is in green:
1. First uninstall substratum if you have it (it sometimes breaks the play store)
2. Try reinstalling the play store but get the apk from apkmirror because it's safe there and don't get the newest version. Get an little older version. I always take 13.x.xx. It has more success rate than 14.x.xx.
3. Try deleting dalvik cache
4. Try installing it as system by moving the apk to /system/app with the correct permissions (rw-r-r, root:root)
DON'T FORGET A NANDROID BACKUP IN THE GREEN SOLUTION!
​I accidentally deleted my Play store and couldn't reinstall it. This was the only solution that worked for me. You CAN use it on a stock rom where play store and play services was preinstalled. It will still work.
FINAL SOLUTION​If these 2 things didn't work then go to the opengapps site, download the gapps app and open it. It should automatically select the correct things for your phone. In the variant select "Pico" and press download. After that hit install and it should send you to your custom recovery and it should automatically install it. You are basically done.
I hope i could help anybody. I literally searched a week for an solution and there weren't any. So i am the first to introduce the new way to fix the play store.​
