Hi,
I am trying to get blankstore installed on my Magisk-rooted Android 10 Pixel 3 XL.
When I try to install the GmsCore, GsfProxy, FakeStore, or BlankStore APKs (from here: https://github.com/microg/android_packages__apps_GmsCore/wiki/Downloads)...
When I try to install through the Chrome downloads tab, I get an error that says "App not installed".
When I try to install through SAI, SAI tells me that the newest version is already installed on my phone in SPITE of the fact that I have never even tried to install them before BESIDES from the unsuccessful attempts at installing them through Chome downloads tab. AND, there are no icons in my app drawer for any of these apps.
What am I doing wrong, and will ALL of these apk installs produce an app icon in my app drawer?

Hello,
I'm trying to install the new Google Launcher and its apps.
I downloaded the required APK files, but I can't manage to install 'PreBuiltGmsCore.apk'.
When I try to install it, it instantly cancels the installation and says 'Application not installed'.
What should I do?
Thank you upfront.
Hey, I'm running the latest Cyanogenmod nightly (Android 4.4). I want to install modded google play store (by chelpus) and tried to manage it via LuckyPatcher. But it didn't work. LuckyPatcher says, that Android (core.jar) is patched (the first two fields). But when i install modded play store, I select modded version 4.5.10 (because this is my native installed version), it downloads the file and then "Install". After my device reboots it reboots again and nothing changes. After the reboot, the device "upgrades" some apps or whatever.
hope anyone can help me by giving a step to step instruction or any tips on how to install it.
regards
SOLVED: Look at my answer below.
Hello,
I'm new to this forum so sorry if I put this question in the wrong category. (also, I'm french, I don't speak english very well)
I have a Wiko Lenny running KitKat 4.4.2 (in fact, "WIKO LENNY Version 8") rooted, but I don't have CWM installed.
Yesterday, I installed some apps on my phone and tried using "Lucky Patcher", because I heard that it could remove ads. The website that explained how to use it said to go in Toolbox and to click "Install modded Play Store". So I clicked it, it said "Loading.." and then showed me an error that there wasn't enough space on the /system partition, only 60-70 MB free. So, as it didn't work, I uninstalled Luck Patcher but then I saw that it uninstalled the Play Store. I searched everywhere, it's not in the launcher, not in Settings->Apps, and now when I open any google app, it says that the Google Play Services needs to be updated, that they're not compatible with my device. I tried to download latest Play Store apk from various websites, but when I install it, it loads and then shows "Application not installed".
How can I get the Play Store back ?
Thanks
EDIT: I managed to install the Play Store apk using ADB from Android SDK. But if I try to install an app (or update existing), it crashes and says "Play Store stopped working". Then I need to go to Settings->Apps and to do "Clear data" for Play Store to make it run again (otherwise it crashes at launch).
EDIT 2: After some time, it showed a notification (translated from french) "Couldn't download <insert any app name here> : Couldn't retrieve information from server {error code i dont remember}".
NIL
Solved
I solved my problem by reinstalling Play Store by using ADB, and by setting it as system app with "/system/app mover" by j4velin. Now everything works perfect ^^
Hello,
i've got a pretty weird problem i can't figure out.
I'm trying to install netflix and get a 505 error in the play store. Using an apk from unknown sources, either netflix or apkmirror, tells me the installation would be an update, but fails after trying to install.
I've tried deleting the netflix folder in /android, deleting Cache and Data from google framework, playstore and Services, download manager. Restarting the phone.
The app also doesn't show up in application manager, app drawer and play store, it just Shows the regular green install Button.
Using a Note 4 n910c, latest Updates installed, no root.
Thank you in advance for your help
Hey all, not sure where to put this sounds like an app developer question maybe....?
Anyone notice that you can't use the latest version of Netflix on yalp app store or apkmirror? Latest is 7.2.1 in yalp but the only one that seems to work for me is 6.26.1, the latest one from apkmirror.
I am trying to go google free, no google apps or services at all, just lineage os. Everything was going great, installed my main apps from apkmirror. Then thought I would try f-droid and found yalp and aurora app stores.
Yalp found that there was an update for Netflix, tried to update manually but a weird error popped up saying I couldn't install the app, it said it needed root or privileged mode to install and couldn't install because it was split or something.
So I tried to install manually by downloading the .apk to downloads but got about 5 files? I installed the biggest one and it seemed to have updated to the latest version but now it constantly crashes when I try to open it, it doesn't work anymore.
Could google have changed the way apks install so that we have to use their store to install these new formatted apks?
BTW, I was fully able to use the latest 7.x.x app version before when I had gapps installed on my rooted los 14.1, I could even install updates straight from the play store instead of apkmirror recently, so I don't think that root restriction applies to the Netflix app anymore, they found a better one.....
Is this a known issue on yalp or the dev community?
Edit: never mind, I duckduckgoed it and found an app to install those split apks for me, worked like a charm. I did notice that yalp downloaded less files this time for the Netflix app to install, 3 files instead of 5-6. I used SAI ver 1.17, this should be built in to yalp and aurora store.
Edit2: turns out that error in yalp meant that because the apk has a few files, it needs root permission to install. I uninstalled Netflix and tried to install again in yalp with root and it works! No need for another app it turns out.
