So I was recently messing around with some Wear OS internal apps and I noticed that there was no proper way to access the Google Phone app itself, there's no launcher icon or anything similar (not only in my watch but on many others as well I believe). The only way to access part of the app itself is by using the contacts app or the google assistant commands. So I wrote this quick and simple app to open the full phone app straight away from the launcher.
It should work with both the legacy gphone package (API 7.1+) and the new one (>API 8.0+).
Apk, source and a screenshot are attached below, enjoy and let me know if any issues!

The same thing happened with me, unfortunately I don't have a solution, if you want to use apps such as 'Youtube', you cannot update it, you have to keep it in the same version it came with or you cannot use your account...

how to sideloaded google play services to system/app folder
@SpookyError, It never ceases to amaze me how naive sometimes we would act,, Dear fellow this Rom was [email protected] XDA due to warez contents inside it ages ago,,
Just this time I would provide support,which might violate forums rules and regulations.
Sideload is our new ADB mode which, implanted inside new CWM+6 recoveries, allowing you to install zip files ( in your case your gapps/play services files) from your computer using the ADB sideload command.

Have you read my comment @ post#9 of this current topic ? process is a bit varied between TWRP and CWM . For CWM +6 which is ported for your device you can find it in the Install → Install Zip from Sideload of your clock work mod console .
However you must not be stocked on boot logo , because ADB command prompt would not work and your device will not being recognized by your PC :
Requirements :
- Enable USB Debugging on your phone from Settings> Developer options
- ADB tools platform and proper drivers installed < in this topic you can find them >
- Copy the file you desire to install , in the platform- tools folder inside your PC directory . ( if you got one of linux distro , then you can follow this method for adb installation >
- Open Command prompt inside your OS :
1. change your directory and go to the place your ADB is located i,e : cd /<address of the platform tools directory , which you put your .zip file there for sideload > < "adb.exe" file that was installed with "Android SDK Platform-tools", It's usually in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools" on windows platform .
2. Type: "adb kill-server"
3. Type: "adb usb" < starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
restarting in USB mode>
4. Select Install → Install Zip from Sideload
5. Type: "adb devices" < you must see something like : "List of devices attached
sh3d7h3dj631f6a7 recovery" which is stated your device is being recognized >
6. Type: "adb sideload xxx.zip" which is your zip file name inside command prompt and watch progress bar in the command prompt indicating that the Zip file is being copied to the device. Once the file is transferred, the Zip is automatically installed on your device.
Reboot .
Hope my post was informative mate

I don't know if this is already solved. I just got mine figured out. I'm runniong on O+ 8.9 MTK 6577 same error when installing the google play services. What I did was
1. Cleared the data on the Google Play Store
2. Cleared the date on the Google Services Framework.
3. Search for the Google Play Services using the browser on your phone.
If you happen to open Play store. That would trigger both of them to store data again.
just use the browser to download the .apk file for your android version (i.e. ICS JB, Lillipop, Kitkat)
Clear the data first before installing the apk for Google play services.
if you done it right you wont have problem isntalling it. you can update and works fine.

All Current rooting options appear to not be compatible with Fire OS 4.1.1. The most recent option I have found was Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v35. This contains a .bat file that is not consistent with the current file structure of the OS 4.1.1. It appears to be moving the file Special.ab (as part of the restore procedure) to a location on the fire that is no longer a valid path. Attepmting to back up/restore the file com.android.settings, which is not a file on the Fire Hd.
Also, all instructions regarding the process to Root, discuss Endabling ADB via settings>security. There is not a Security selection under Settings; there is Security and Privacy selection.
And the option to enable installation from unknown source is not under Settings>Device, it is located under Settings>Applications.
I seem to get very close but Amazon seems to have it so locked down that I may be buying a new REAL tablet soon.
Has anyone found a viable solution to rooting this Fire Hd?
AFAIK the last gen HD tablets weren't rootable either. I wouldn't get your hopes up. Having CM/PA would be nice but using the Google apps/Launcher hacks you can at least make it much closer to a custom ROM.
Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v35 is for the 2012 Kindle HD (tate). Using this on our 2013 soho Kindles will result in a permabrick.
Fire HD 6 Under OS 4.1.1 and USB Debugging
I have seen people saying that they 'removed USB Debugging' from Fire HD 6 and 4.1.1.
That is not true.
You go to Settings->Device Options and click 7 times on the Serial Number.
You will find that USB Debugging is already turned on when it comes from the factory; how to turn USB Debugging OFF is the problem for some people with their Fire HD 6 under OS 4.1.1.
And, as someone else said, "Apps From Unknown Spaces" should be checked and that is in Settings->Applications
Have not found a method, yet, of rooting the device. However, you can get to what is not rooted. To install APK files, for example, just go to the Amazon App Store (go to Silk, search for 'Amazon App Store' and create a bookmark. Then you will be able to install free apps such as ES Explorer.
You can plug your Fire HD 6 into your computer, open up a folder and go to the Download folder. Then, using ES Explorer you can double-click on the Download folder and install APK files that you have put there.
In that manner I installed a program I had created and it ran perfectly on the Fire.
Thus, if you have the APK for an App; you can install it.
Do you know if there's a way to install the Google Play Store? Isn't it just another APK? Also, I'm trying to install some google apps (gmail, music, youtube etc) and it's not working since I don't have the google services .apk installed. I tried installing the google servies .apk but just get an parcing error

There is a great tutorial on how to get GAPP's working on the HD 6 which only requires a little bit of ADB knowledge.

Unfortunately, the Play Store will not work as it needs root to perform the hack which isn't possible on this device yet (if ever).
No root, but still usable.
Just got three for my kids assuming we would be able to re isntall a decent version of an os on here.
Unfortunately looks like that is not the case.
I had purchesed minecraft from the play store, and when I went to load it up I was being charged the 7 bucks again from the amazon store. Not cool with that.
Fortunately as WowSoftware stated you can still side load any apk you want with out a problem.
Here is what I have been doing:
1) on a device that is linked to google play store:
Install titianum backup, es file explorer
use titanium backup to backup your application
go into the titatium backup folder and find your apk.gz file
move this to a network storage device (jsut for ease, you can copy to your computer if you like)
un .gz the file into a folder.
2) on the fire hd
go to settings and check the box that says allow unkown softwtware to be installed (cant remember the exact wording)
open es file explorer
browse to network store and click on the apk
This will load up what you need (you may need to do the gapps installation if you get no network connectivity issue).
You will need to manually run updates this way.
It's a hack but it works. I'm confident that there will be a root for this device some day, in the mean time I would suggest not running any updates fore fire os.
I have actually been thinking that there may be a way to block the advertisement feed at my router. Just to stick it to the man. If I do this I'll post some info on that.
And the Google play works with this method?

Recently rooted my LG LS620 with towelroot v.3. After rooting I accidentally deleted the wrong file so now every time I attempt to open my settings I get a pop up that says Unfortunately, settings has stopped. Tried to factory reset the phone but didn't do anything but make it where I cannot install unknown apps or enable USB debugging. Does anyone know how to fix this or is my phone completely ruined?
Lg ls620 zv3
okay well your probably going to have to contact the lg website or customer support for this problem and start all over with towelroot..... i haven't tried this root method but it looks promising BUT! what i was able to do today was get my hands on a guys ls620zv3 and screw around with it.... boost mobile carrier... notice it's much more up to date that my lg730 hardware and software wise ... tried installing the clockwork tether app on his phone it just pulls up the package and stuff but doesn't recognize the contents... maybe because it has a 64bit platform and it can open the .apk's contents but cannot run it through it's sdk maybe i'm completely wrong and it has security provisions built in so you are not able to install apps directly unless it's through an google or amazon app store .... can anyone tell me if i can gain access to this operating system's 4.4.2 in order to install the clockwork mod onto the apps stage..... because i believe unless i didn't allow unknown source, mock locations/allow usb debug and that's causing the package installer to reject the clockwork.apk app i have no idea, i will try tommorow and tell this page my findings
---------- Post added at 07:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 AM ----------
okay let me clarify what i wrote a script above, When i downloaded the clockwork.apk on my lg730zv8 my package installer immediatly recognizes it as an installable phone application... and i can run it etc.... but what this ls620zv3 does it when i download it from cnet or wherever... it downloads once complete i click on the file in my downloads folder.... and what happens............... it opens the folder and i am able to sort through the inner contents of this folder and since the package installer on any normal phone installs the application and grants it access to it's layers of abstraction this ls620 apparently only allows you to view the contents of the .apk and i couldn't find a runnable auto run shell or w/e inside the clockwork application. I believe like i said above this phone doesn't grant permission to the package installer due to a security provision created by boost mobile..... i wondered if not allowing mock locations, enableing usb debugging and allowing unkown sources what the cause of this or...... i wonder if you can root this phone and allow a downloadable package installer to download denied application BECAUSE i know that built in the lg730zv8 the clockwork.apk is UNDOWNLOABLE from google play.. it simply says this application is not compatible on your carrier.... but it downloads and is installed by the android package installer... or because theres a google play package installer and an android package installer this ls620 is set to google play package installer and needs to be set to android package installer to avoid any security provisions hmmm not gonna try anything crazy except to get this guys phone to accept clockwork.apk
Hi,
I am trying to install an app as system app, the app is part of a device management tool, and the app will manage (un)installation of apps silently, So it needs to go as system app.
I am using the official ROM, it is already posted in the other thread, based on my researching in xda-developers forums, I have two options to get the app installed :
- Resign all apk files : This seems a very complicated process, so I have not tried it.
- Update services.jar to bypass signature check : I tried this as posted in this thread, but whenever I try to odex the services.jar it will give me error "error: only position independent executables (PIE) are supported." and no linker patch in xda-developers or any other websites online worked (basically the idea is to overwrite linker, but that does not work).
So I need a developer help to get me a dumped ROM that has the apks resigned, and share the signing keys with me to sign my app so it can be installed, OR with a fixed services.jar version that bypass signature check.
If anyone interested I do the work through upwork platform, so you can post here and link me to your profile, and we can move there to discuss the next steps.
This is the ROM I am flashing to the device each time I break the booting because of wrong deployment, Tzul dumped the official version so I assume we can also dumped it after we do modification to the device itself.

When trying to install Anime Mobile APK I see the installation progress bar then the system tells me "App Not Installed", so the app never installs. I can install the same APK in my Pixel 2 (running Android 9) and Nexus 7 (running Android 8.1.0), so I know the app installs fine in other devices.
I'm wondering if maybe there is a setting I need to enable on the MediaPad M5? (Before someone asks, yes I have "Install Unknown Apps" enabled.)
The target SDK on the app is 21 if that matters...I tried using Apktool to change the target SDK to 27, but when trying to install the generated APK, the installation fails (maybe I'm not doing it right??).
Maybe I m out of luck and I won't be able to install it, but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
I got it working now ?... after a few hours. Here is the breakdown in case someone runs into the same issue with this app or another app
Apktool does work, but after generating the new apk, you need to resign the app with command line tools (zipalign and apksigner).
I tried changing the SDK version to 26, 27 and 25 and although the app would install, it would load and then close. So I decided to regenerate and resign the APK with the original SDK level 21 and voilà! The app installed, opened correctly and I'm able to watch Anime in my new tablet!!! Even download the episodes
I wrote a guide if anyone is interested: How to Change the SDK API Level to a 3rd Party Android APK
That's it ?
Can you post the apk. PLS. The one that work (moded one).
