[Q] Google Maps version upgrade issue - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good morning,
I own a LG Optimus 4x HD, running Jelly Bean 4.1.2, 20a-EUR-XXX, stock, non rooter, and I'm based in Australia.
Does anyone know or have similar issue with Google Maps: from the Play Store I can only get version 6.14.4, no later version available.
I have installed 7.2 (and 7.3 yesterday) however, these are via .apk (from Android Police) not from the Play Store, and are very unstable for my device (Maps 7.x keeps flickering when entering Navigation and eventually crashes).
When I uninstall the update from 7.x back to 6.14.2 it then tells me that there's an updated Maps from the Play Store, when I go to update it, it shows me the screenshots (in the Play Store) of the new version (7.x) but when I update it, it is in fact an update only to 6.
14.4.
I've researched this on the net for a while and the only similar reoccurrence is a month or so back with some Galaxy S owners which were having the same issue, but it seems that they were then able to update it to the latest version in mid September.
So has anyone had a similar experience?
Or is anyone able to supply me with an .apk for the LG P880 specifically (if such thing exists)?
Thanks in advance,
Cecu

[Q] CM 6.1.0, Froyo and Latest Version of Market

I have since a long time ago installed CM 6.0.1 with Froyo 2.2.1 on my Viewsonic G Tablet. It seems that I am stuck on the same version of Market that I have had since this installation late 2010. Is it possible to update to the latest version of Market given the above version of CM? I have at least one application, Pleco, that does not allow me to download in-app purchased content to the tablet although I have no problem downloading same to my Google Nexus phone running Android 4.3.
Market is version 1.82, Google Services Framework was recently updated to 2.2.1 but I also have Google Play Services which is at version 3.2.25. Is it possible for me to get the latest version of Market, or Google Play, as it is now called, or am I forever stuck on version 1.82?
Thank you.

Couldn't find anything related to my problem, if there is please provide link to it. So now to my problem, i had a Machspeed X-treme 7" tablet , after some hardware failure i contacted their support and they sent me the newest model (at the time) Machspeed Trio Stealth Pro 7c, With google play preinstalled, after going through the phonesky process to make Gplay work i had no issues and flawless gameplay and app downloads from there on out until now, with the latest update of the Google Play Services 4.1.31/32 now some of my apps are saying "Google Play Services which is required by some apps is not compatible with your device", mind you this message never came up prior to this update.

Not possible as machspeed will not release the original firmware for these or any of their devices, also the firmware isn't the issue it's googles recent update to play services!
Possible!

Not sure if i want to try this without doing some more research and insuring this is a fail proof method, these A13 tablets do not flash easily. Thank you for the link and a great starting place, would much rather prefer JB anyways lol.
Still like the issue left open and see if anyone can find a fix to the google play services issue!
Trio7c Trio Stealth Pro 7 Google Play Issues Best Fix
So after finally giving up , I followed the directions on the link posted above, FLAWLESS best decision i ever made, this rom is perfect and works flawlessly on the Machspeed Trio7c/Stealth Pro 7. My advice to everyone owning one of these tablets is to flash this rom and forget any previous issues you previously had, not to mention the bonus of upgrading to JELLYBEAN!!!
ALright although my tablet from before is still working flawlessly i have gotten a new 9 inch tablet this year:
TWD_MID aka M900 aka CHINESE SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB3 (obviously a generic)
So my question is , since i am not getting answers anywhere else, will this rom work on the above mentioned tablet? has anyone had any success or attempted to try it? Or does anyone have one of these tablets they would be willing to try this rom on for future reference?
My new tablet works but locks up quite frequently now, i do not want to re flash it without finding a working rom for it first, i can deal with the rebooting until then.

[Q] Play Store stuck at 4.8.20 version

Hi guys!
A few days ago, the play store on my LG G3 received an update from 4.8.20 to 5.something with material design and stuff.
Yesterday, I installed a stock ROM to erase bloatwares and other stuff added by my mobile network operator (Orange, France).
I have the last version of the LG G3 (V10L), on android 4.4.2 but now, my play store is on 4.8.20 and won't update !
I tried to force the update by touching the "build version" in Play Store settings but apparently, i'm running on the latest version.
Can anyone tell me why the Play Store updated itself to 5.someting a few days ago but won't update now ?
I'm on the same android version for the LG G3, I just flashed to remove bloatwares. So I don't understand why.
Thanks and have a nice day !
I have the same problem on my Nexus 7 2013... Any advice?
Well, I searched for an APK file and I installed it myself on the device.
I have the same problem on my htc one x running cm11 kitkat 4.4.2
any solution besides sideloading the app? i really dont want to do that each time a new version comes out...
Same problem on my ZTE Grand S II LTE, I even tried to uninstall updates going back to v 4.3 then it suddenly notifies an update but it's still to 4.8.20 :\
I just bought a Nexus 5, and I'm having the same issue. After a factory reset, Play Store starts at 4.5.xxx, but then updates to 4.8.20. When I click Build version, it says I'm up to date. I have not activated the phone yet, but that should not matter.
In this thread you can find the newest version of Play Store APK: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996995
Maybe this help you.

What version of google Pstore & Services ?

Hello,
I have a ZTE Nubia Z9 Classic nx508j running stock Nubia UI V4.0, NX508j_CNCommon_V4.23 , android 5.1.1. It reads Kernel version 3.10.49-perf-g51d93d7-00273-gf1ea5e3 , date Dec16 10:56:20 CST 2016.
It's running fine now, although I am unable to use 4G on it (sim will restart all the time, didn t do that on older V3.18 software) but it s fine on 2g/3d settings so no biggie. However, I have no clue what version of GOOGLE PLAY STORE and GOOGLE SERVICES I need to install on this phone in order for it to work. I've tried a few and all I get is "google services have stopped blablabla".. can anyone point me to the right direction on the VERSION I need for this phone ? Does it need something else besides services ?
So far been unable to install a working playstore on this "Chinese" phone.
Thank you.

Youtube for Android TV mod request

I have Youtube for Android TV installed on my Android powered screen. Few days ago it stopped working, as when i open it, it shows the "There's a newer version of YouTube available on the Play Store, tab to update". The problem is the version in Play Store is for Android 5 and above, and my version of Android is 4.4.4 and it can't be updated anymore (Unsupported device or something). So is there anyway to keep using currently installed YouTube? or can anyone help modding it so it bypass the update check when it opens?
Thank you all.
