[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)

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!

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...
Hi there
I hope someone can help me or give me a pointer. The short story is that Google Play has reverted to the Android Market (v2.3.4) and I can't download anything from the Market.
The longer story is this...
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2, bought sim-free over a year ago, running Android 2.3.3. Yesterday I had a problem with Google Play not being able to download some apps. This was clearly wrong: I had 1.5GB free of 16GB. In the course of trying to fix this (ha!), and trying to find recovery mode, I borked the device further. Google Play reverted to Android Market v2.3.4, and some apps got messed up in random ways and consistently crashed. I uninstalled some of the crashing apps, but I still cannot download anything from the Market in order to reinstall them.
I've cleared cache and cleared data for various apps and services: Market, Download Manager, Google Play Services (odd that that's still there), Google Services Framework, and maybe some others.
The problem with the Market is that when I touch to download an app it readies itself for the download (moving diagonal lines on the progress bar) and then the progress bar disappears as if it's finished. There is no download, and certainly no install, but no error message either. On the other hand my web-based Google Play account says I've just downloaded it. And meanwhile my web-based Google Play account says there are no devices associated with my account.
Given the situation with Market, I can't even download something like MarketFixer which may help. I can sideload apks, but I can't find a (legitimate-looking) apk like MarketFixer to download.
I've never rooted my device, so I don't expect to have to do that to fix this. Before do a factory reset, does anyone have any ideas?
Many thanks
Nik
Update: Solved in thread below
ah darn!! i thought i could help you, up until the point where you said you didn't root . If you rooted then you could just install the latest version of google play

Thanks for even thinking of that, dragid10.
Hmm... theoretically, if I routed, where would I get the latest version of Google Play from? I can't access the Market, after all.
There are a few threads in the apps forum here on XDA one is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1932489
I also don't think you need to be rooted to install it. Just make sure you turn on unknown sources from settings(either under applications or security)
Also have you tried uninstalling updates for the market or removing your Google account from your phone and re-adding it.
Edit:Updated thread URL original one was a closed thread.

nsmith4, thank you. That's moved me a bit forward. I couldn't find a Google Play apk, and now I've got Google Play back on my device, and the web version of Google Play knows about my device again.
(I did try to delete my Google account and it refused me. It said it was needed by some applications and should do a factory reset instead!)
So now it seems I'm back to my original problem: I (still) can't download any apps from Google Play because it says (wrongly) there's insufficient space on device. I shall keep looking for an apk of MarketFixer or similar. This problem is now the same as the one reported here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436188
although of course I cannot download MarketFix to help me fix the market.
Update: That install of Google Play didn't stick. When I rebooted the phone it took me through the Android initiation process (asked for Google username and password) and Market was back in place of Play.
Looks like a problem with factory resetting every time you restart. That is a bigger problem. Google Play will automatically update itself (all update to com.android.vending will).
Try taking the ICS update (if you haven't already), you need a fresh install of the OS. Or you can root and install a ROM. Same thing

You say you "borked the device further". The question is, what happened? What did you do, and what got borked, in what way? If you don't even know, then it will be difficult or impossible to repair. The easiest and fastest solution will be to install a fresh ROM, like Gagdude said.

gagdude, post-mortem: No, I didn't keep a careful record of what I did. The "borking" is a combination of the problems listed above. I'm going to do a factory reset and upgrade to ICS, as suggested, thanks. Will keep you posted.
Mid-point update: Successfully factory reset my phone (Volume up + Power on, factory reset, then reboot). Now my SIM card isn't recognised (sigh).

Hello guys!
Does anyone have a car with MyLink system and can't use the BringGO GPS System because your smartphone is incompatible with the app?
So here is my history... my girlfriend have a Onyx with MyLink and she bought a LG Optimus G and was sad because the app isn't compatible with her smartphone.
Today I bought and installed it (BringGo Brazil) on my Motorola Atrix and showed her its working on her car.
Then she asked me why my old phone works and her new one not.
I told her that's because the compatibility thing and etc... then she say: make it work on my phone and just laugh.
Then I have the idea: get the .apk file from my Atrix and install on her Optimus G.
I downloaded the App Backup & Restore and backed up the bringgo apk.
Sent it to Optimus G and installed.
Then the first surprise: it told me I can't download the resources because I didn't bought the application (with her gmail account).
That's fine, I would need to buy that app from Google Play, but... HOW? it doesn't appear on Google Play in her Optimus G.
Then I had the second idea: put her gmail account on my Atrix and buy the BringGo Brazil with her account. Note: I just added her account on my Atrix, but I bought the APP from Google Play on computer, because it was already installed on Atrix.
On computer, I bought the app BringGo Brazil and choose my Motorola Atrix to install.
Then I back to her Optimus G and opened the BringGo Brazil again.
Second surprise: it works!!! It was working and I create an account for her and everything was okay... until...
Third surprise: while downloading the map files, when decompressing, it gave me a lot of errors, then I downloaded it again and again... and again... and again... if I remember, it was about 10 times. Every time it downloaded and tried to decompress, the progress bar was increasing, showing that it will work...
Fourth surprise: it works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay, if you read everything, you don't need another guide, right?
If you don't, here we go:
GUIDE:
1 - Get a smartphone that you can download the BringGo you will use (there is alot of versions, USA & CAN, 2 Europes, AU & NZ, Korea, China, Brazil, etc...)
2 - In this smartphone you will need to add you gmail account that you USE in your main smartphone. (Note: if you plan to remove your account from that smartphone, you should backup the current rom because your account can't be removed until factory reseted.)
3 - Buy, download and install the BringGo you want.
4 - Download and install the app "App Backup & Restore".
5 - Open the App Backup & Restore and backup the BringGo apk.
6 - With a file manager or whatever, copy that backup .apk and send it to your MAIN Smartphone.
7 - Install in your Main smartphone the BringGo app and create an account.
8 - Install the map files and PROFIT. (if you have problem to decompress the map files, redownload the maps again and again, it will works, believe me!)
Hope you guys will like the guide and will be happy again with your MyLink working with GPS now
Not bad for the first thread, uh?
NOTE: who try the trick, please report if it worked for you!

I did this before I saw your guide.
I confirm that it works, I used "device spoofer" on my Samsung Galaxy S4 to be able to download is directly from the play store. It worked fine. however, once installed the app still recognizes the device not to be a "compatible one" and restricts some of the functions such as latest map download etc...
But it is acceptable for now. Until they provide more device support. If ever.
Hi everyone,
I used the following way to connect my Lg Optimus G with my Cruze Mylink System (although the bring go guys informed me that my device isn't supported from technical point of view).
You have to:
- root your device (following tutorials wide available via internet)
- use an apk which changes your device name on the google market - I used Device Spoofer - none other apk worked for me from what I tried (I tried with Market Helper but without success)
- after you choose a compatible device (I chose the Samsung Galaxy S2), you can go to google play from your desktop/laptop, press install on the supported device and after paying the apk it will be downloaded to your phone
I got an update on the phone after the application was downloaded (so, it should auto update without problems).
I also checked after installation the app on the car, and I tried to go on my home city in Romania on a street in which the drive signs were recently changed (2-3 weeks ago) and the update included it as well - so, I think it can help everyone on this issue.
Good luck.
If you need some support on the same or similar hardware as mine, give me an email. I will be glad to help you out

please can any one attached the apk?

Hi,
I don't know what apk you are talking about. You need to use 2 apks.
The one for spoofing the device is free on Play store.
The Bring Go application is 1$ on Play Store. I can't help you with this apk file. I tried downloading it from the Play store but without success.
There are some apk versions on the internet but I haven't managed to download them.
Cheers

What is the first apk you need
Hi all,
I am new to this and sorry if I am repeating a thread. I have searched and haven´t really found my answer.
So I bought a Chinese phone with MTK6735 and Android 5.1. The phone does not come rooted.
The issue is that it does not come with Google Play or the GAPPS. I downloaded a copy of Google Play and installed it directly from the web browser of my phone. Now, when I click on the Play store, it doesn't really open, it's as if fails to load the app. (crashing immediately).
Can someone please advise?
Thanks
Download Google Play Services
All you need to do i download Google play services.
You can find the link by searching on Google.
Download the gapps .
Download the Gapps (search google)and flash it through recovery then it may work,i am not sure but i think it will work

The Play Store crashes because it must be installed as a system app, and when you install it from an .apk it installs as a user app. It must be converted to a system app. But this requires root.
Sorry to bother again. I have tried with many methods and I still can´t.
I have tried downloading a google installer by Eric Xiang. This installed the Google frameworks and play services, but when I open Play store, it just tells me "Unfortunate, Google Play Services has stopped working". So, there's no way to open it.
Alternatively, I have tried to root it, and then install a recovery (as it was not installed by default). But here, I am having problems in rooting the device. I have tried with latest version of Kingroot and still failed. Not too sure, it may be because the device is with Android 5.1? or because the device has one of the latest Mediatek chips MT6735?

The trouble: after resetting device/clearing storage/or changing credentials HTC Flyer does not let you to login to Google account/use market etc. Which renders device pretty much useless.
It says invalid username and password while entering actually VALID username and password
Source of the trouble: very old version of Google Account Manager used which makes Google identify device as Gingerbread. (thus not supported anymore, see link to news at very bottom)
Cure - WITHOUT UPGRADING ANDROID to glitchy custom build - but staying on official Honeycomb ROM:
(1) download from apkmirror.com newer versions (please use exact versions as listed below) of
Google Account Manager 4.0.3-239410 [ https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl.../google-account-manager-4-0-3-239410-release/ ]
and
Google Play Store 6.2.14 [ https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-store/google-play-store-6-2-14-release/ ]
(2) Enable "Install Apps from Unknown Sources" option in settings (Settings >Applications>Unknown sources)
(3) If your device does not have file manager installed then rename downloaded apk to give them shorter names like amanager.apk and store.apk and copy them to the root folder of HTC Flyer internal memory by connecting it to PC via usb cable(disk drive mode)
(4) install play store first, then and install google account manager. On the device without file manager just go to internet browser and navigate to:
file:///sdcard/store.apk and install it from air (do not download it, then package installer option #1)
then to
file:///sdcard/amanager.apk and install it too - the same way
(5) restart device - and you should be able to login to your google account now, also play store shouldn't crash (do not forget to disable automatic updates for the apps to not update play store to non-functional version)
Enjoy!
PS. Google account manager 4.0.3 is modern enough - so there is no need to turn on 'Less secure app access' under your google account/security. I also assume you are not using 2-step verification for your Google account which make things bit more complicated
Here the more detail on Google discontinuing support for older devices: [ https://www.makeuseof.com/old-android-phones-will-lose-google-apps-support/ ]
It appears I am the only user of HTC Flyer still alive )))

I re-activated my HTC Flyer and your tutorial helpt me a lot! Google Play Books still can´t connect to my account, but Google Maps and other apps works fine. Trying to finy a nice browser for the tablet, since Opera Mini just don´t show websites flawless.
It is much better to install applications from .apk files rather than from Google Play Market
Since for Shapdragon S2 modern services Google is too heavy

Google fixed the way they use the OP
You have to buy another tablet for google services to work
Because 4.1 is the maximum for Flyer and even on this version Google services does not work
