Hi, I've recently flashed stock firmware onto my GS3, and Google maps has reverted to an older version, I've been waiting for an update prompt in the play store but nothing has happened. I've tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it but it still reverts to the older version.
Is there a way to force the app to update?
Thanks.

Since I can't post links, you can just search google for: Android Police Google maps.
I believe it is the first link.

Hi, thanks for that, will that update in the play store when a future update is released?
It could be that if you are running an older version of Android, i.e. GB or ICS, that the latest version is not compatible.

I bought an Optimus One in Dubai and it didn't came with android market (apparently it's blocked over here), so I rooted it and installed the vending.apk manually.
It opens but force close all the time, downloads never start and after a while it force closes... I've tried clearing the data and using market enabler but the problem persists.
Im new on android, anyone can help?
Thanks!
Facing the same problem...
@raguida
Strange coincidence!! I also bought the Optimus One (P-503) from Dubai and facing the same problem of not having Android Market. For some strange reason, SLIDE ME is pre-loaded on the phone... but it cannot hold a candle to Android Market.
Can you walk me through the steps used for rooting it? Also, where did you get the vending.apk from?
Help from the gurus would certainly help leveraging the power of Android.
Thanks!!
Anyone has market running properly on Optimus One?
I've downloaded many vending.apk files the only one that actually installed is attached, but like I said even when it doesn't force close the downloads stuck on "starting download" phase...
Maybe it's not the proper vending.apk for this phone or for froyo... if any user have this phone with market running and can upload the apk it would be great...
To root it was really simple just follow the step by step video on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
Good luck and let me know if you have better luck... I suggest you try to install the market before rooting bcs so far rooting the phone didnt help on anything and maybe in the end it's not even necessary...
I downloaded my market.apk from phone. It is actualized to last version. Maybe it will help maybe not. You will see.
Customized sw from Vodafone, Central Europe (LG-P500-V10a)
//EDIT:
What about name of application? Can't be problem here?
Thanks a lot, you version is much newer then the one I was using, unfortunatelly the FC still happens when I try to download or open the downloads tab... or maybe it's because of my version, it's V-10c...
Thanks anyway!

It's strange. Maybe problem is not in application itself. Check it out.
If problem is really in issue that Google's market doesn't support East countries you probably will have to flash one of original-one firmware from another country.
Which version of fw do you have?

It will be fine check if P503 and P500 are same model with different ROMs. If so, then chose your original ROM and flash it into.
It have one problem - lost of warranty.

I've flashed the 10a version on the phone and now the market is running normally, I've lost my nDrive app with Dubai map but downloaded it again from the market and its all set now... Thanks a lot!

After re-flash you of course lost also rooting, because whole ROM was replaced. For rooting you can use same steps as before you used. (Super One click 1.5.5+ (PC app), z4root (android app), or configure via adb shell)
If is phone rooted, than you are allowed to delete what you want - also pre-installed apps. You can find this apps in /system/app but be careful what are you delete!!
Can somebody confirm this path? I'm not sure about this.

Any reason for selecting the 10A version and not the 10C version? I read here that the 10A version has a bug and the user was being recommended 10C.

Because it seems, that A,B,C aren't older or newer version, but only country modification. But nobody knows, what is true.
Discuss about this you can find here.
I think that possibility of different language (country) versions can be likeliest.

I've chosen 10a bcs mine was already showing 10c, but I think it was a modified version of 10c (without market), anyway 10a is working fine. Does the 10c version come with nDrive or you also had to download it again?
Have you noticed any missing apps from your previous version to this 10c you installed? Also there are any new apps other them market there?

After seeing the B09 OTA today, I updated the system. I then updated the latest and correct version of Google frame, Google Service, and Play Store, as there are not included in the Chinese version.
But now I cannot update any apps as they stuck at downloading stage. Anyone else experiencing the same?

regarding TWRP, I think you can flash it as long as you have bootloader unlocked already.
just reboot to bootloader, issue command "fastboot flash recovery <twrp.img>"
and for root, maybe su2.79 via twrp can still work since it is working for us model on nougat.
I still will try this once I finished downloading the update.
While back in the top six:
1. Successfully placed twrp
2. Make it a full backup of all (generally all but the cache)
3. Any attempt to establish through twrp gap's or supeSU - butlup
4. Backup why it is not helped by butlup (made a recovery, but the body still does not run)
5. From what I saw - a lot of the same items are not translated and some where Russian, fonts and pages do not intermeddle in the screen and nalazit each other
6. Settings, etc. much more available
In general, the expected raw and clear. By the way, with full restoration at B13 (did several times with full formatting system wipe) - Update again comes, downloaded and installed (standard means updates including) ...
Who does not feel sorry for the time can still experiment with the installation root (I'm tired at night), and did not try to put just apk.
If I happened to stay at Noug, as well - is "oh" ...

Same here as the first APK Miui tries to install is the Framework, but the version Miui downloaded was deems as corrupted, therefore it got stuck, the only way to get rid of it is clearing all back group apps.
I've got a reply from ZTE Chinese dev, it seems one of the fixes for this very issue was included in other builds for Android 7.0 but not for Android 7.1.1. There will be another OTA to fix this issue, but the ETA for now is Monday next week, and the ETA could change too.
