// I fixed it. If you have the same problem visit my guide: [Guide] How to fix any broken Play store
Hello everyone reading this!
I hope you can help me with my problem.
My problem is the following thing:
I was having some problems with my play store so i wanted to reinstall it.
So uninstalled Google Play Store with root but the problem is that i couldn't install it again.
(And i only make backups of my boot partition because i don't have so much space to backup data in twrp.)
When i try to install play store again with the latest apk of it then it just crashes. I also tried installing it as system by moving it to /system/app with the correct permissions but still not working. And i also tried it on /system/priv-app but it just disappears there.
I found out that if i use a old version of the play store (9.8.07) then it doesn't crash right away. But i still cannot use it properly. It crashes when trying to install something.
I also found out that if i try to uninstall something with this old version then it doesn't crash right away but it says "uninstalling" forever.
So i think it may be that play store didn't get the permissions that it needs?
I tried so many things but i just don't know how i can fix it. I don't want to do a factory reset or something like that.
Please help me. I just want my good old play store back.
Edit:
I can't even use YouTube. It doesn't allow me to use it without play store. This is much worse than I thought it would be.
My paid apps, substratum, everything i paid for is just broken now.

Hello I am new to this forum,
I have a Rooted Galaxy S4 Mini, and I had a custom patch of the Play Store installed, but I just hated the icon and didnt notice any difference between the custom patch and the original version of the Play Store so I decided to go back to the original one and uninstalled the Custom one and installed the regular play store and when I did, I opened it and it started loading and showed me the Terms of Service once more but suddenly the little window with the Terms disappeared and the Play Store froze. Soon after it just crashed and a message saying it had stopped appeared. And this just repeats itself everytime I try to open it, It wont even let me tap accept or decline. I tried installing previous versions of the Play store and the same thing happens, tried clearing cache & data and reboot, didnt work, tried clear cache, data, then force stop and reboot and got nothing. tried doing this to Google Play Services, services framework and play store, nothing. I even tried uninstalling updates of Google Play services and all of this steps again. But nothing. And yes, my download manager is enabled. I was so desperate I decided to back everything up with Titanium backup and then I did a factory reset. When it turned on and I configured it, there was no Play Store in my apps. So I manually installed ES File Explorer and Titanium backup to restore my phone and my backup wasnt there unfortunately so I installed Play Store manually too and I got the same error! And now I got to personalize everything again and download all the stuff I had back in so it would be nice to at least get the Play Store working again, please help me!
Sorry for long post please give me some of your time and help me
Thanks
Hi Toby,
Welcome! Unfortunately, you're in the wrong forum. This forum is specifically for the Galaxy S4, Verizon version. If you go back to forums, you can look through the list and find a forum closer to your model.
That being said, I am not sure where this post should go. Maybe a moderator can point that out...
If no one comes to your aid, PM me and I'll send you a link to a Google Play Store zip file to install.
Thanks for your help and sorry about that I am new to this forum
Hi,
My model
Sony SGPT131 Xperia Tablet S
Android 4.1.1 (release 2)
Problem
Play Store doesnt work anymore (crashes when i open it or crashes when i download/install an app)
What caused the problem
I tried to uninstall the bloatware with titanium backup and by accident i must have uninstalled several important apps too.
But i have no idea wich apps. Ive already tried to reinstall Google Play Store 5.3.6 and Google Play Services 7.0.93 (1778921-034).
But that wont fix the problem.
Ive also tried different versions of Play Store and Services. But no success.
I would even go back to the Stock Rom with all the bloatware if that would fix the problem.
Im living in germany (Built Number TJDS3520710 (DE))
My device is rooted.
Can u please help me? Ive spent the whole day with trying to fix it
(Factory Reset also didnt help)
Edit:
Step 1 + Step 2 = Fixed
Is your play store still working, mine is not, just got off the phone with google and they said its a bug with the latest version of the play store but they are working on it.

Of course mine is working.
Got an iDeaUSA CT740K tablet with missing Google play services. I wasnt even able to sing into any google account because of the missing google play services. However, I found an APK version of the services for the tab and installed it. It fixed the problem, well, for a while. Whenever i install the apk it fixes the problem and i am able to download stuff from google play, however, google play services remove from itself after about 10-20min and i cant download anything from google play again. I tried to move the apk into root/system/apps but it didnt help (the device is rooted). I wanted to flash gapps but i dont have a custom recovery (cant do it with the stock one, as it seems) to do it so, because there isnt any available yet. Also, there isnt a stock firmware available so cant re-flash it over the current one. I tried factory reset and erased internal memory but didnt help. I even removed rood (unrooted the device), same.
There are 3 games from fox which appear on the tab even after being uninstalled. I assume that the tablet cough some viruses and they are the reason for this happening.
If someone has a solution, feel free to share it
Thanks!
I have honor 7 play dua-al00. I want to install google play. After doing all the procedure google play fails
I have the same problems. Up till now I still cannot find a resolution. Can anyone here please advise? I downloaded and installed the latest suitable Google Service and Google Play Store. I ran the Google Play APP and it just crashed and closed. Urgent. Thank you.
Did u find a solution i have same peoblem
i have the same problem but i think its worth adding that i'm on android 8.1
and the issue isnt that google play doesnt install its thats once installed it wont download (and therefore not install) other apps.
i think the issue is that the system doesnt come up with the authorisation box to let playstore install apps (so doesnt recognise it as a store?).
if you install amazon store and try installing something from there, it asks if you want to let amazon store install apps, you click yes and it works. for some reason it doesnt do that with playstore. you either get stuck on app downloading but doesnt download or playstore shuts down.
play services, are updated manually from apkmirror otherwise you constantly get that gmail wont run without updating services first for example. update it manually and it works for a while.
sorry, probably also worth adding i'm on (and assume we all are who have this issue) on the chinese rom (messed up at purchase!) and an alternate fix would be if we could install a non chinese rom or a custom but doesnt look like these are available?
we still need a solution to this....

Hello everyone reading this!
I found out that no one really has a solution how to fix a broken play store. Many people are saying "reinstall it" or "factory reset your phone" but this wasn't really a solution for me.
Reinstalling only did it worse because then i kept getting a "Play store stopped working" popup so after a week of trying things i finally found the solution.
So if you don't have Play store anymore or it just stopped working then you should try this out!
First try these things and after that try the solution that is in green:
1. First uninstall substratum if you have it (it sometimes breaks the play store)
2. Try reinstalling the play store but get the apk from apkmirror because it's safe there and don't get the newest version. Get an little older version. I always take 13.x.xx. It has more success rate than 14.x.xx.
3. Try deleting dalvik cache
4. Try installing it as system by moving the apk to /system/app with the correct permissions (rw-r-r, root:root)
DON'T FORGET A NANDROID BACKUP IN THE GREEN SOLUTION!
I accidentally deleted my Play store and couldn't reinstall it. This was the only solution that worked for me. You CAN use it on a stock rom where play store and play services was preinstalled. It will still work.
FINAL SOLUTIONIf these 2 things didn't work then go to the opengapps site, download the gapps app and open it. It should automatically select the correct things for your phone. In the variant select "Pico" and press download. After that hit install and it should send you to your custom recovery and it should automatically install it. You are basically done.
I hope i could help anybody. I literally searched a week for an solution and there weren't any. So i am the first to introduce the new way to fix the play store.
