Hi,i am having a major issue with updating Chrome and Android system webview in Playstore since updating to Android 10. No matter what i try,i cant get it fixed. Does anyone have any advice please? I have tried uninstalling both Chrome and Android system webview, i have also uninstalled updates for both. I also uninstalled Playstore updates and even factory reset my phone but nothing i have done,has fixed the problem. I even as a last resort,updated both from Apk Mirror to the newest version in hopes it will remove the update in Playstore but no luck. Please can someone help me fix this issue?

I have "Spice Mi 495" Mobile with android 4.0.4 Ice cream sandwich.
I cannot update Google apps on my phone when i download any update of Google app it doesnt gets updated
I looked for solutions and i found that i don't have Google play services on my phone due to which i cannot update Google apps.
I tried installing Google play services from play store and it says : Incompatible with other app(s) using the same shared id.
I tried installing manually, it said : Application not installed,
I tried side loading it to system/apps but still no luck.
I tried installing latest signed Google apps through goo.im but still no luck.
I tried manually installing latest Google apps signed from clockwork mod recovery, still no luck.
Please suggest any solution as soon as possible.
My Moto G4 is running stock Nougat with the latest (Sept) security update. For some reason, the Google and Chrome apps will not update. They show up in the play store as having updates available (Chrome is version 55.xx) but as soon as I select update, it starts and immediately stops the download. I have tried clearing the play store cache and data but that did not fix the problem. Is there something else I should try? Can I download the latest .apk and install that or will that mess something up? I will add that both apps seem to be working fine.
Update: I downloaded the .apk files and installed them and everything seems to be working fine. Thread can be considered closed and moderator is free to delete it.
Hi guys,
I am having difficulty with applications that are using Android System WebView recently.
I have tried uninstalling it and trying to let Chrome handle webview implementation.
I have also tried to reinstall Android System WebView. And reinstall the other apps that uses it as well...
No luck.
Any ideas?
Hi,
I had the HDX 8.9 Saturn running with the older rooted firmware (4.x). Then I updated to Android 5.1.1 with the help of the other thread here and everything was working immediately after that.
However, I noticed that there were some residues of the old Android 4 installation. Especially a very outdated Android Webview (v.41) was causing issues with some apps I wanted to use. (updating the webview from play store did not work as the old one was a system app and was not "overridden" by the play store app).
So after the upgrade the old webview was still there and the behavior of the 3rd party apps still like before. So I opened up Titanium Backup and removed the old webview as well as an app from Amazon (someting like amazon.webviewkkhelper or similar) with the same version as the outdated Android webview (the "kk" in the name made me think it was a Android 4.4 Kitkat residue).
Now, after a factory reset, however, I cannot sign in my Google account. After entering user/password the screen jumps back to the first screen (choose between login with existing account or new account).
In logcat I can see that apparently the webview is called and not found:
Code:
W/PackageManager( 997): com.amazon.webview.chromium is not installed for user 0
W/PackageManager( 997): com.android.webview is not installed for user 0
I'm not 100% sure that these messages are actually describing whats causing the issue, but they are a strong indicator that the google login wants to access a webview component.
Now, I have sideloaded the most recent webview from APKmirror, but it is called
Code:
com.google.android.webview
and is threfore probably not found / used.
Can anyone help me restore the system webviews that came with the Android 5.1.1 update?
Which versions of it do you guys see in the stock image?
Thank you in advance

Assuming you rerooted install the Play Version of webview and then migrate it to the system partition using TB or another tool like Apps2SD. I have seen this both work and fail on Lollipop bases ROMs. Good luck.
Edit: Understand the naming issue; recent Google Play Services builds should look for both.

Thanks @Davey126, that helped. I installed the older webview v60 which was still called com.android.webview and made it a system app.
Then it worked again!
Login failed still but that was a different issue. Had my system further borked by trying to install Google stuff via flashfire... who knows what that did, but it did not work either. However, it prevented the old play store stuff to fail. I manually cleaned it up (hopefully) but at least now I can install the old playstore + gms again again .
Login worked afterwards. Lets see how it goes

Hi,
I recently bought a tablet from china but i wasn't told that the google play store wasn't install. I tried to download them from their apps as well through some site but none of them works. The google play store just crash. So i've decided to root it but i couldn't find any roms/firmware which i can use to root the tablet. The tablet current version is 7.
Do i really need to root my tablet or there is a way i can get my google play store running?
I notice that there is some thread for tb-7304i or something, will i be able to use them? If not, where can i get details to root tb-7304n?
can anyone help me with this?

An Android device must NOT be rooted to install Google Play Store on it. Use Google Installer v3 to install Google Play Store. The Google Installer v3 comes as an APK which you can directly download and install on your device. Fortunately, this app doesn’t void warranty as it isn’t performing root or modifying the system files. Once the Google apps have been installed, you can uninstall this app.

So when the Google Services Framework keeps stopping then you know there is something wrong with one of the Google Apps you have installed on your phone. Either Google Services Framework, Google Play Services or Google PlayStore. Picking out the particular app responsible might be tasking so it might be best to just clear the data and cache of ALL three apps and also remove or log out of your Google Account and log back in and finally re-boot device.

Tried any times already and still can't figure out which apps is having problem. Is it due to the software version having PRC?
