Ok so I was using lucky patcher yesterday and I did a patch. my google play didn't connect to the internet after that, so I Deleted the play store completely (yes I have a rooted android) then I downloaded a play store apk here at xda I installed it and still it wouldn't connect, after that I did a factory reset thinking it would give me the android default play store but it didn't. My android had no trace of a play store. So I was getting aggravated and ticked off. I then downloaded a new play store here at xda, and then when I open play store it just crashes. I've done a lot to fix it but no luck. I've added a # in the hosts file and it worked for like a couple second and crashed again. I added 2 # and it worked (Example below) until I tried to download an app.
#127.0.0.1 localhost
#127.229.35.136 android.clients.google.com mtalk.google.com
Any solutions

Not all Play Store versions are the same, nor do they work with every version of android. You need the correct one for your phone and software version. Without knowing these, it's kind of hard to suggest anything further. But did you use Lucky Patcher to mod the Play Store or to block ads? That usually causes these issues.

Your best bet would be to find someone else with your phone that is rooted and then they can share their version with you. Doesn't seem to be any custom roms or much for your phone so can't just download the rom and grab the apk from it like most phones. How were you trying to install the other versions you found?
All I did was install it.
Play store works sometimes if I put 2 # in front of the ip's but once I download something it crashes and I'm back to square 1

I think you can use LP to undo that patch as well. But you should still install the Play Store in the system. That's where it belongs and needs special permissions for everything to function properly.
I don't see anything about unpatching the patch

Need to use the "Remove ODEX with changes" option. Should do the trick.

Sorry I didn't respond sooner. Anything that involved Google didn't work so I had to find a workaround. I couldn't Use apps or crome to reply.
I will try your answers and thanks for replying.
@Paget96
I have tried those options and they didn't work.
However I did notice another thing missing... Google services framework.....
I need it for my device, I may make another thread about that.

{note}: this thread made assuming you're android is rooted
Hey. My name is Sadcamp. I'm not really acquainted with how everyone here forums and all, but I'll give this my best shot.
Recently, I was working on fixing my Play Store, because of an app that blocked some of Google Service IP's, disabling my ability to access the store. So, using Root Uninstaller, I removed the Play Store app off of my phone, which as many of you know, removes the Play Store from /system/app. Hoping for it to be fixed, I got an APK of the most recent version and installed it on my phone. To my distaste, nope. I investigated further and journeyed to the mystical file called "hosts". I researched and found that the Google IP's were blocked. So, as recommended, I renamed the hosts file and restarted the device, clearing it all up.
Then, about an hour ago when I went to install an app from the Play Store, it stopped working (at the point where you press Ok/Yes to accept permissions and all). So, I whipped out CatLog, which I recommend if you ever have a problem with your phone, and saw that the phone was giving out messages like "Google Play APK file not found" and stuff of the such. After tracing some of my steps back, I figured this was because, as mentioned in the last paragraph, that I removed the Play Store from /system/app. That being said, I whipped out Lucky Patcher, commanded it to move my Play Store app to /system/app, rebooted my phone, and voila. Just as it had been before all of this crazy stuff had happened.
So, All in all, (TL;DR)
If your Play Store app won't download or update anything, and closes upon opening, consult CatLog, or you could just skip to what I did by using Lucky Patcher and moving the Play Store app to /system/app.
Hope this helped for those who have these kinds of problems. Love your faces!
I have this app which I originally downloaded from the play store but it quit working with an update so I downloaded the earlier version from APK mirror, I didn't think it would update since it wasn't registered to the play store but no matter what I do it decides it wants to update from the play store anyway.
Things I have tried
1 not allowing auto update (for the app) in google play
2 deleting app from my google account
3 detaching from market using titanium backup
I've run out of things to try so any help would be appreciated.
(The app is WifiN by Wako. B)

maybe u can enable do not auto update from setting or the app has a auto-update feature itself.

It's simple. Just re-sign the apk. It will no longer see it in the market for updates

I have a few apps that for one reason or another I refuse to update (most are due to MD) and it's annoying to have them in my update list.
Hi there,
I am trying to install Pokemon GO on Memu 2.7.2 from the website apk mirror (can't link it cuz I don't have enough posts)
Every app is easily installed however Pokemon GO fails to install without giving me any reason why.
Has anyone encountered the same problem and has a possible fix?
Thanks!
Same problem here. Haven't found a fix for it yet. The apk worked fine on mobile so that's not the problem.
We'll probably have to wait till it's downloadable through the playstore.
Yes they are blocking devices that can't get the app from the PlayStore and banning people that are sideloading it
Pokemon Go required Android 4.4 And MEmu is 4.2

There's actually a Lollipop version now.
I was able to install it from the Play Store, but it still force closes after I launch it.
Edit: I actually got it working. I just had to set up Google Play Games. It's working great now!

I installed the lollipop version and installed Play Games, and it still force closes the app upon startup. Was there anything else you had to do to get it to work?

Did you open Play Games and make sure you're signed in? That's all I did. Which version of Pokemon Go are you using? I have 0.29.2 which was released today.

Yeah, I installed Play Games, signed into my account, and clicked around on a few things to be sure I was signed in correctly. Then I just I installed the game from the Play Store, which I would assume is the most up to date version.
Edit: Just verified - it's 0.29.2
Double edit: I opened Play Games, navigated to "My Games" or whatever, and opened the game from inside Play games, and it worked. Wont work if I try to open it from the home screen though.
having same problem but going though play games didnt fix it for me. Running the latest memu beta, game installs from play store, run game from play games and still crashing. Thoughts?
I got it installed but it's also crashing for me
me too
Grave diggging!!!!!
Hello guys.
Many users, including me, stumbled across this problem the past couple of days.
There seems to be an issue with the latest Google Play Store version, which becomes stuck on waiting for network if you try to download something at random times.
This is very frustrating but I found a fix, although temporary until Google updates the play store.
WARNING: This requires root. Also I am not responsible for any damage that happens to your phone, proceed at your own risk as always.
Without further ado, this is what this fix is about:
Go to apps, press the three dot menu on the top right, show system apps, and find Google Play Store.
Once in Google Play Store, press remove updates, or disable and enable the app again, both ways work.
If you see in the notification bar that Google Play Store is updating, CANCEL IT.
Now, this is where is gets interesting.
Normally the Google Play Store will update itself, but we want to stop that until a later date where a fix is pushed out.
Download the app called MyAndroidTools.
Open the app and select the service menu, press system.
Scroll down to Google Play Store.
Find a switch named SelfUpadteChecker and turn it off.
Voila, your play store will now be working properly.
REMINDER: This is not a permanent solution, remember to check again if the play store is fixed at a later date to enable the switch again and update to the latest version.
Have a nice day all.
EDIT 3/4/17 : I found out that these switches may further help stop Google Play store from updating.
Again use at your own risk.
AsldListener
MaintainanceWindowJobService
RescheduleUsingAlarmManager$CheckWifiAndAutoUpdate
RescheduleIUsingBroadcast$AutoUpdateRecheckFrorBroadcast
RescheduleUsingJobScheduler$CheckPreconditionsAndAutoUpdateJobService
SeflUpdateCheckerScheduler$SelfUpdateCheckerTaskService
EDIT 5/4/17, second way.:
I still recommend the first way because it seems the issue is still not resolved, but this may appeal to users who want something less intrusive or don't have root.
I found out that the issue is not yet resolved with the latest google play version, but I was able to make play store work again with the following :
Cleared data of Download Manager with Titanium Backup.
Clered data of Google play services with Titanium Backup.
Rebooted.
I have no idea if this will last, but I was able to download apps after this, without touching the latest verion of Google Play Store.
If you wanna be extra safe uninstall updates from play store as well, but this worked for me without doing so.
Update: 7/4/17:
Zte announced a new software update, namely B02, which should fix this issue without any user actions required.
Thanks @Choose an username... for reminding me.
Hope it works.
Thanks!
What I did was to download an earlier version of the Play Store, install and before running it for the first time, I disabled the SelfUpadteChecker.
But for some reason, the Play store still tried to download the update, it just crashed after the download. The funny thing is, during the 5 seconds between starting Play Store and the crash, I was able to download an app update.
Which version of Play Store should I use?
Just to clarify, I use the Chinese firmware, so I cannot remove updates, it is not a system app. I can only uninstall it completely.
.
Thanks man. It is working on me right now.
Glad it does.
If it helped hit that thanks button.
I'll update it soon with some further findings as well.

Were you able to unbrick your Axon 7? I read it was in DFU mode wasn't it ?

unbrick one is my friend's. it is cn version, mine is good.
It doesn't require a root. Just cancel updating after you uninstall updates and you are good for some time at least.
On mine, it seems to use the Download Manager app for ALL downloads, including the Play store. If you go to the settings in Download Manager, you'll see a "Download files only via Wi-Fi. Untick that box and Play Store starts working properly again.
I can only assume that the crappy Download Manager is intercepting and controlling all download requests.

I doubt it, it can't work on a supposedly uncertified device and all of a sudden stop working.
Or the device showing up as certified and all of a sudden becomes uncertified.
I personally think a play store update is broken most likely, because it has been reported from rooted and stock users, plus on other devices rather than the Axon 7 as well.
Guide updated.
@nfsmw_gr You should prolly write down somewhere in the OP (preferrably big, and where it says that it is not a permanent solution) that ZTE announced an upcoming B02 with fixes including this one.
It shouldn't be too far away since it has already rolled out to Chinese versions.
thanks for the fix though

I just realized with the new play store apk, using the search bar again when you have previously searched will crash the app (the search field is populated)
play store version 25.5.27-21
uninstalling the updates to roll back to the default version doesnt have this issue, but the play store app will update itself again back to the latest
anyone has a fix?

i thought it was a corrupted system issue but turns out its not
For anyone who sees this, I have already tried a few things with NO solution (except downgrading play store version)
FYI these do not work:
-Clearing play store data
-Factory Reset
-Flashing stock V600TM20f KDZ
-Downgrading Webview, chrome and Play services

During the first two weeks it was driving me mad. But now that my phone's mostly setup, I've learned to live with it.
