so i removed it and tried to sign in again but it says "couldn't sign-in" message ;( i tried different google account but i still can't get it to work i tried (wiping cache, dalvik cache, fix permissions, uninstalling play store and google play services Updates...) but nothing works...
DEVS please i need your urgent help since i can't live without Google Apps like Gmail, Play store, Google Now, is it a problem with google servers or what exactly ?

Getting same problem here with play and now, 4.1.2 /MB5
Edit....well once again I wiped market data/services framework data/wipe dalvik/reboot.....but additionally in titanium I destroyed all market links and reestablished them and this seems to be working atm
i found a way to fix it. changing hosts file fixes it for me. just rename it and stop play store and framework... later ill upload adfree hosts file because without it, it will slow a bit but works. when i get home latter... but try that

I'm sorry it is a different phone then. You will be best asking in your own device forum
I have "Allow Unknown Sources" turned on, and I have tried downloading some APK's such as the new Gmail and I am unable to install them. When I go to launch it I get a window that comes up that says "Failed to open the Remote Assistance Invitation. Incorrect Remote Assistance Invitation format" My Note 2 is stock (no roms) with just Nova launcher. I have tried other APK's without success.
Any ideas?
May I ask where you're downloading said apps from?

If you are getting the Remote Assistance error every time you try and install an APK directly, it may be that Remote Assistance has somehow been set as the default installer. No idea how that could happen, but to clear it try going to Settings->Application Manager->All then look for Remote Assistance app, select it, scroll down and "Clear defaults" under "Launch by default".
Hi,
this is a problem i encountered many times after (a while) i updated my phone to 4.2.2 (cannot install/update any app.apk file outside the playstore and there is this famous "Insufficient storage available" error which cant solved by wiping cache and dalvik cache).
And after some investigation i noticed that since android 4.2, google create a new lib folder for the apps in "/data called /data/app-lib/" and there is a symlink from "/data/data/APP-PATH/lib" to this folder which is the most culpable of this error.
So to avoid this kind of error:
1. go to "/data/app-lib/APP-PATH(that has this error)/lib" and delete.
2. install/update the apk app.
3. if not work go to "/data/app-lib/APP-PATH(that has this error)" and delete all the folder (but you must begin by their sub-folder then the folder itself, because you cant delete the folder of this APP-PATH directly without deleting their sub-folder first.
i hope, i helped some of you guys that you have this erroneous and overstressed error.
thanks:good:

I've been banging my head against the wall for a few days trying to figure out why Clean Master wouldn't update. I kept getting the message you were talking about. I tried several other fixes without any luck. I have plenty of space on my internal and external storage. I tried uninstalling the app and couldn't re-install either. I used your fix and the app finally installed. Thanks a bunch!

Another Insufficient Storage fix
Hi all,
I personally found that this method didn't fix it for me... apparently on my Galaxy Note GT-N7000 running SlimBean 4.3, there really WAS a complete lack of storage after only a week or two of running. This is an issue that affects non-custom ROMs also, otherwise I'd be posting on the developer forum, it doesnt seem to be an issue with the custom.
If you are suffering from a distinct lack of internal storage, try the following;
Get a decent Root Explorer (FX root is now free and very good)
Navigate to /data/log
Check for oversize log files ~260k titled 'dumpstate'
These dumpstate log files were steadily consuming my storage, they were up to 750 items in a week and steadily increasing. They are written when the phone loses mobile coverage, so if you're in a blackspot they will start eating storage.
Some file explorers will allow you to 'Select All' and you can happily empty the entire folder without risk to your system that I know of. If yours doesn't, you can actually delete the entire log folder and re-make it with no ill effects. Solved my problem!
Take it easy
Am also having this problem. Amusingly, I can't install FX root or similar due to 'insufficient storage'...
[EDIT - finally fixed this by uninstalling Real Racing 3]

Thx for the fix suggestion,
but unfortunately this solution failed to fix my issue.
Maybe this one can help the other who also haven't manage to fix theirs,
try to download "Lucky Patcher" and choose "Troubleshooting", it will check whether there were ODEX file left after previous installation and else, and will delete the file when necessary.
It fix my "insufficient storage issue"

Lucky patcher app is a cracking app that is not welcomed here and against the roles of xda forum.
But if you went this app to get rid of the odex files, there is another simple method by using any file manager (like root manager) then go to data\app or system\app and search for the "xxx.odex" of your app that had a problem then delete it (it's safe to delete it) then reboot.
This is the same method that lucky patcher did it to get rid of the odex file.

There are 2 paths according to your app:
system\app (if it is system app)
data\app (if it is normal app)
If there is no such "xxxx.odex" (which xxxx mean the name of your app in question), then your problem is not accuse to unused odex files but beyond that.
Are you on stock Rom or modified room, odexed rom or deodexed rom.
Because the method of lucky patcher to delete these files are simply it search any file with extension (odex) in the 2 paths above then delete them. That's it, there is no magic happens at all.
Thanks
PS. Ah, another things, are you tried to show the hidden files in your file manager.

This solution should be used once?
So, I purchased this tablet: Teclast x80h as advertised from manifacturer with dualboot Windows 8.1 and Android 4.4.4.
So far I can say Windows is working fine, haven't found a problem with it.
But When I booted the Android I face a common problem in the Google Play: No connection and the button retry.
I searched google and youtube and tried most of the things people wrote there.
1. checking the auto time/date update
2. the timezone
3. deleting all cache from the app
4. I rooted the device using: Kingroot and iRoot and tried to edit the hosts file. But in it there only was this line: 127.0.0.1 localhost - so I had nothing to change there. Tried to edit it anyway with total comander with granted root priv. - I receive "re-mount error".
5. I also tried to fix the issue with a fix from Frontier given here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...8-air-3g-tablet-9-7-2048x1536-t2913035/page43 , but sadly it didn't solve the issue for me.
Any other insight you can give me is welcome.

I have the same problem and have tried all morning to fix it. I have managed to root and have tried following Frontiers instructions but just get the same problem at the end of it.
I also found it impossible to delete Play Store using settings as it is a system app, but managed it using an app called "system app remover". Then replaced it with the apk from Frontier but still no luck!

Have just found this, Maybe we have to wait for an update. But as they come in Chinese am not sure I will recognise it!!
http://bbs.teclast.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=262279&highlight=x80h+play+store
Applied fix:
with root browser:
Edit /system/build.prop to:
ro.product.device=picassowifi
ro.product.local.language=en
ro.product.locale.region=US
Now Google Play is crashing just before displaying the content ofthe store. Even got it working for few minutes after reinstalling Google Play app and Google Play Services, but after tying to download some app from it it started crashing again. I'm open for suggestions :>
I have those settings in as well, but Play store not working at all. I will try deleting them both and reinstalling

okay, guys, that's how I fixed it:
Fix for Google Playstore on Teclast x80h dualboot
requirements:
For Rooting the tablet:
iRoot
Kingroot
First you run Kingroot - all is in chinese, but it's pretty straight forward deal.
Then you run iRoot and finish the job.
Then you need the following apks:
superSU
root manager
uninstaller (root)
link2SD
google play latest
google play services latest
All this is available on APKmirror.
Copy them somewhere on the tablet (I used the Download folder)
step 1. Install superSU - to be able to grant root privileges to the other apps.
step 2. install root manager
step 3. open it and edit /system/build.prop to:
ro.product.device=picassowifi
ro.product.local.language=en
ro.product.locale.region=US
Then save the changes.
step 4. uninstall the Google Play app that came preinstalled with the tablet. (You can do it with any root uninstaller.)
step 5. install the Google Play apk
step 6. install the Google Play services apk and reboot
step 7. install Link2SD apk and run it. Find the google play app in the list press it and when it opens choose "action" and then make it a system app.
step 8. Reboot the tablet.
Enter the credentials in for your google account and then download any app you want :>
Hope that will help someone. Took me lots of time to figure it out.
Took info from several sources here on XDA and from youtube.
All credit goes to them.
I had done all of the above yesterday and still it didnt work. But today I got a Google Play Services update via Mobo Market and Play Store worked after that!
Got the same tablet and of course play store didn't work. Expected this would require extensive hacks, but apparently there is an update as soon as you connect to internet. Just click update app on the bottom left and then you'll see two buttons (all on Chinese), click the left one and it will download the update for you.

yea, when I received it, that update was downloading a broken zip file and it was giving error. That's why I had to do all that to fix it. Now I'm happy with the tablet.
