I own a Samsung Galaxy k zoom Sm C1116 which i purchased from china, it is a genuine phone as I purchased from the Samsung store in china. I am not able to install google apps in it because of Baidu which is built in the phone. I even contacted the store I bought the phone from, they didn't reply. Can anyone please suggest me what to do. I am stuck it in guys i am not even able to download apps as there is no play store too. Can anyone find me a suitable suggestion or give me one to resolve this.

Use Google Installer

I can help. I'm from China and we usually use an app to install Google services to Chinese version phones.
Because I'm new here, I can't post links. You could search "谷歌安装器官网_拇指玩" or "gugeanzhuangqi" in Google or Baidu.

Hello,
Just got my Tab on Friday. Are the subject apps available? I cannot find them in the market.
Thanks!

no on Netflix and the future of it on this tablet is quite grim too.
there's no native Facebook app optimized for tablets just yet (how silly is that), only the phone version which is not available for this device. people tend to like this as a substitute for now:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.locomolabs.facebook
or just use the browser.
i think Words With Friends is not tablet optimized either and thus not available.

There isn't even an iPad app for Facebook yet.
I use WWF on my Tab without issue
I use the Facebook app from my phone. Actually, it automatically downloaded and installed when I first logged into the tablet. It synced all my apps, even the ones that don't show up in a market search.
I read somewhwre, I believe it was the words for friends change log, that they were working on a tablet optimized version. Could be wrong though.

Friendcaster isn't free but it works great. FriendMe should have a new version out next week that's more usable. And Facebook iPad is coming out soon... so maybe HC next?
Friendcaster sucks IMO. Only thing it has is the feed. You're better off using the actual website. FriendMe is a little better but its still missing some of the core features.

Yes they did during the last update. They said they are working on a Honeycomb version. The phone version does work, but it cuts off the bottoms of the letters in your tray. You can't tell F's from E's for example. Also when you use a blank tile the letter chooser is not displayed properly.
That said, it does work.
I would assume the new UI will be more like the Ipad's.

I have WWF on my phone, and it auto downloaded to my tab when I opened the market for the first time.
Suppose I have to wait since this is my first Android anything
You can sideload it: Download it here
Completely legit, use the quick download button. Install Astro before you download it, and use the app installer.

I've got WWF on my tab. Auto downloaded first time. It blows on the tab atm. The bottom bar covers like 20% of the letters. for some you have to drag them up to see what they are. They need a tab version badly.
Here is a great facebook app https://market.android.com/details?id=com.locomolabs.facebook&feature=search_result

Just got my to.1 yesterday, I was in love with it until I found out these three apps were not available, looks like I will be returning it in the next few days, =( pretty bummed, I guess I should have researched this prior to purchasing, but they seemed like such basic app's that it never crossed my mind that they wouldn't be available
I have been an android guy for a long time ( had a g1, and now have a g2 ) and this may be what pushes me over to the Ios darkside
just spoke to a Netflix rep. to summarize, he said that they are very aware that tons of people are looking for a Honeycomb app, and that they have offered the major manufacturers (Samsung, HTC, Motorola..) the necessary things to integrate Netflix, and that it's up to the manufacturers to decide if they would like to implement the DRM needed to run Netflix. but since some of these manufacturers, Samsung for example, are planning on a media hub.. the Netflix rep said that Samsung might see it as competition to their own offerings. so we should all contact both Samsung and Netflix to let them know how badly we want Netlifx.

So I just finished chatting with Samsung and this is what they had to say....
Dave: Hi, thanks for reaching out to Samsung tech support. How can I help you today?
Andre: I recently purchased your new galaxy 10.1 and found out that there is no Netflix app compatible with it. why is that?
Dave: Please allow me to go through the inquiry.
Andre: k
Dave: Let me explain.
Dave: Netflix works on Silver lite to stream movies. The Samsung Tab doesn't support this Silver lite. However, Samsung and Microsoft are working to release a upgrade so that Tab will support Silver lite and then you can stream from Netflix.
Andre: how soon can we expect this?
Dave: I'm sorry; this information will be released only after releasing the appropriate upgrade for the Tab and I do not want to provide you with any false information.
Andre: are we talking weeks, months, years?
Andre: this is a big reason i purchased the tablet
Dave: I can understand your concern. I recommend you contact our phone support at 1-800-SAMSUNG (726-7864); they are available 24/7. I'm sure they'll assist you further in this regard.
Andre: k... thanks
Hi!
I'm a beginner on that field, I just bought a phone on dhgate (a clone of an iPhone i5s). The phone looks ok but it comes with few apps still in Chinese (the store is one of them) and I would like to know if it is possible to have the google play store on it.
I don't know if the solution is rooting (because I also don't know how to do it) or something else.
I attach 2 pictures showing the issue.
I would appreciate very much your help,
Thank you!
Ladies and gentleman
I bought a Lenovo S6000-H in China for a friend of mine at a very good price. The problem is that it is full of Chinese, the Google Play store does want to work and at the moment we are feeling our way through the Lenovo store becuase of the Chinese.
Here is my question; Can I download all new firm/software for the tablet in order to look like I bought it from South Africa or the closest region, also hoping that the Play Store will work? It is currently running android 4.22. If yes where can I download it?
Thanks!

Hi there. We don't see a lot of Lenovo phones in the states, but have gotten to play with one a while back. I'm certain that if just change the language to English in the Settings, you should be fine. I would be REALLY surprised if it did not have English as an option due to the fact that many people in China (and surrounding areas where they sell the phone) speak it. I was able to navigate through the Lenovo when it was in Chinese just from the icons in the Settings app. Should be the one with a letter on a computer key. Most of the time, the first option or so in the Language & Input section is the language. It should be a very similar process to this: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-...language-of-the-Lenovo-K900-from/ta-p/1195353

I've been learning about Apks ROMS ETC to try to this this, Idk what to do I don't have a laptop all I have is a kindle and a Seagate driver..I've been installing Samsung apps from APKmirror...then I found out its goophone.....
It's storage is 256 gb as a "AS STORAGE" but internal 16gb.
I downloaded marshmallow yesterday to try to change the system uI but that isn't working either keeps saying the app will work better with firmware user which IDK what that means or what to do.
When I go to recovery mode and hit update sdcard it gives me a list only thing is I don't have a sdcard....
When I go to about phone and system update it says there are none.
Is there a way I can update through cache??
I! At my wits end on this I need help please
Sounds like you bought a fake s10, try to get your money back somehow, hopefully you didn't pay too much for it.
You can also try to reset the phone, this will bring it back to stock, but I doubt it'll work since no s10 ever came with lollipop.

Yeah I realized that and I bought it from someone off of Facebook marketplace. He blocked me etc I paid 100$ for it.
It doesn't have a serial number per device but when I log onto Samsung it has a Samsung serial number.
I have factory reset it before and it didn't revert.to stock..
I have been downloading Samsung apps and Samsung device files.
Is there a site I can go to that
I have ALL of the apps that the Samsung version is?
It says bootloacer: unknown
Firmware statu s: is blank
Says largest firmware: N/A
ANDROID VERSION
9.0/SDK22 (LOLLIPOP)
Some samsung apps will only work on samsung phones so you're out of luck with your phone. Whatever you find on the play store like their browser and email and such might work but that's about it. Try to report that guy but just take it as a hard lesson learned.

$100 for a S10+... Come on, don't tell me you didn't know it was a fake before you handed the $100 to the seller.
I don't even feel sorry for you to be honest. But yeah be careful next time... If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is.
Like mentioned, some Samsung apps are meant for authentic Samsung phones only.

Sorry to hear that but a little research would most likely have prevented that. A deal is one thing but 99% of deals like that are either fake or stolen phones.

Lol relax, no one is trolling you here. Sounds like you are one of those people who don't research at all when you make a purchase.
10 mins of researching would have saved you from being scammed of $100. Example, S10 that comes with Android Lollipop... Lol..lipop, pun intended.
Did you even check the phone out when you met up with the seller? Sorry to say this though but you are in the wrong section of the forum. Though they might have a forum page for knock off phones in the future.
Too good to be true. Android 9 is pie, not LOL..lolipop..no pun intended lolololololipop
I've watched a couple reviews of this phone and people keep saying oh the YouTube app sucks because YouTube is banned in the PRC or whatever, but the phone is widely available here in Taiwan, and taiwanese people use Google apps extensively. So perhaps optimizations will come before oppo does a more international release (it's already internationally released since Taiwan isn't the PRC lol). I'm gonna go check out the phone today at an oppo shop so will get an idea then. Would he funny if I could somehow grab Samsung's version of some apps to throw on there.
Hi Komali2 do you have any news?
I got my phone from giztop and my YouTube works flawlessly. It came with Google Play Services installed I downloaded YouTube and the bonus is its full screen.

Where in Taiwan is it available, can you share the store name? also at what price is it selling there ?
just download the apk
I've already buy with Giztop and now i wait the delivery to my country (Belgium).
I ask to Giztop that keep my box sealed and not open ... then i must instal myself Play Store.
I hope fast delivery and no duties tax because seller said to me no duties.
For the installlation of the apk of Play Store, there is a tuto ?
Easy ?
Where can i found official and last apk for Playstore ?
I installed Google Play from apkmirror (just search for goole play apk on google.co.uk - first hit). The latest right now is
Version: 28.8.17-21 [0] [PR] 420363821 (82881710) arm64-v8a. Google services are already installed on the Find N, so you just need to install the Goople Play APK, download your apps, set GBoard as the default keyboard, and then it acts mostly like a western ROM after that.
Note: apkmirror and and some of the other sites like apkpure, are fairly safe; *but* sideloading apk files is always at your own risk.
OK, i think apkpure and apkmirror are trusted sources and safe ... but never sure at 100% !

Odd; I setup the phone from scratch and then used the latest apk from apk mirror and it all worked fine. Only thing I can think of is that the google services have been overwritten by your Note 9 versions? Try reverting those?
How can i reverting because i've already delete old Playstore apk and download new from apk mirror but it's the same...
