Hi all
I'm going to try to expose my problem.
I want to download apps from Google play store (my screen was broken, then repaired, so now I need to reinstall all my apps and during this operation by oneplus, I think that my phone has been updated to OOS 3.1.4), but for somes app only I have a transfer rate who is slower than the full rate of my line (France / FAI Free / ADSL 8mb/s=1mo/s), and only with somes apps from play store. A Speedtest is ok (1mo/s), somes apps from play store are ok too oO (1mo/s) but these are someone who are with reduced trnasfer rate (max +/- 620ko/s).
Others devices are ok with speedtest AND play store.
What can I try ?
By advance thanks you.
Fred

Some of apps required to set it: 240
In hungarian: Néhány alkalmazásnál alapkövetelmény a 240. Amúgy miért vetted kisebbre?
But them work too in 180p example viber hill climb. But every time I have to set back to 240p. Why I want 180p??
Because on 180p my phone seems like smarter. I don't know. For example typer is small but usable I,ve more area. On browser are smaller pages ...
I just noticed that my play store on phone is only showing free apps only, not of the 'paid' apps are showing when browsing through the store.
anyone else have this problem?

Try to Download the latest Play Store 4.8.20 (I Think) : https://app.box.com/s/kmf1xhn2w9n7o4vdwc6e
i have a Galaxy Ace GT-S5839i on stock Gingerbread 2.3.6 with Google Play Store v4.0.27, which keeps auto-updating itself despite uninstalling the updates (to free up my internal memory) many times.
How can I stop/disable the update of Google Play Store?

thank you very much... ingenious solution :good: hopefully all my google bloatware updates can be blocked this way.
not only was play store update taking another 15m, but there was another garbageware silently installing called play services taking up over 50m and not just disk-space but cpu started to crawl too

i did try that, but eventually at sometime i'd need to enable background data for syncing my contacts & calendar, which are the only two things i use in google.
wonder why google can't create simple apps without trashing the entire android eco-system? hopefully amazon phones might give them some competition.

Hi Veloo,
yes, indeed the same trick can be used to prevent too the update of Google Play Service, as I posted here:
[TRICK] How to avoid Google Play Service update
Though some people say that Google Play Service isn't *really* a core service as stated by Google.
The fact is that Google Play Service provides a set of functionalities that any apps might want to use or even need to use in order to function properly.
But that's completely up to how the app is been written by the developer; so in case Google Play Service is uninstalled some apps can work properly without a issue, others might show some minor issues that still doesn't prevent the app to perform its main task, others might not work at all.
But, according to what I've read, mainly all system apps and even Google Play Store aren't badly affected by the absence of Google Play Service.
Anyway here is a good hint from xda-developers recognized contributor marcussmith2626

What I used to do was uninstall the Google play services
Then open YouTube
It will say you have to install Google play services
Click the link to install it & it will allow you to download it from the playstore
You can then move or link it to sd card with link2sd
I prefer always having the latest versions of apps as they tend to eliminate bugs - yes it might be a larger file size but you can move or link the apk to sd

thank you again! i've managed to survive without play services so far. I definitely do not update apps, unless they become smaller. I don't need bloatwares with more features. I also replace apps, soon as I find a smaller app! and so i find myself moving away from all the google apps.. far better, simpler, smaller & more efficient alternatives. and to think Iwas one of the early google adopters. those old google apps were so much smaller in size, in kb really
First thanks for the starting this thread to get complete solution on how to stop automatic apps updates on android smartphone. After reading all comment i have done this and get the full result on this..
sad google updates have become so big that my phone just doesn't have the space! #TBTF #Bloatware
thankfully i've survived so far without google play services..
Hi all,
I also have "No" GPS problem when Play store is updated (my smartphone an archos helium, and the issue concern 50 Diamond, L-ite 500 (all on android 4.4.4)).
After spending over a month with factory reset / reinstalls to try to get the GPS working, I finally did a minimal install of just the basic apps I needed by downloading & installing apk's directly, and more importantly deactivated all the apps I did not need including Google Play Store and Google Play services.
GPS gets a fix and works perfectly, even inside building. I've been using this configuration for about 2 weeks to today.
Today, I enabled Google Play Services and Google Play Store (which auto updated itself to 6.9. .... when I tapped on the version number which was 4.8.... in settings), .... and when I switched on the GPS (Location) ..... the issue was back => NO GPS FIX.
Disabling Google Play Services and Google Play Store ... and GPS works perfectly again gets a fix in a few seconds.
Whatever Google has done has generated a major GPS problem for users - Google should provide a fix immediately to users or restore their apk versions to the last correctly functioning versions.
this issue is posed on google's dev's forum for 1 mounth but it seem there is not enought vote to make google work on this issue, or nless to restore to previous version. this is very embarassing because I have bought a new smartphone for nothing (the older was not broken at all) and I am not alone to do that.

Hi! (new to this forum so I hope I'm not off-topic or in the wrong place)
So I've recently got a Matepad 11, running on HarmonyOS 2.0, knowing it would be kinda troublesome in some cases with the lack of GMS. But I've successfully installed the apps I wanted (APKPure, mostly) and managed to connect to my Google accounts for what I needed. However, now I'd like to download a game - Pokémon Masters EX - which relies on Google Play Games. I don't have any problems with other Google Apps (Drive for example) but this one is causing me trouble. I'm using GSpace to download it directly through the Play Store, launching it through GSpace, outside of GSpace, launching the game before Play Games etc etc... But the outcome is the same ; the game launches, but asks for GMS (other apps did that but they run well), so I try to connect to Play Games, which will either crash or stuck in an infinite loading.
So I wanted to know if it was useless to try, or if there is a way to make it work.
Thanks in advance and have a great day!
