Hello!!

This is a simple workaround to prevent the google service (com.google.android.gms-1.apk) that creates the anonying green Google Settings icon.

MANUAL:

1º Uninstall the Google playstore service from application manager or Remove the (com.google.android.gms.apk or com.google.android.gms-1.apk) from /data/app

2º Simply create a file in /data/app named ( com.google.android.gms-1.odex) As empty file.

END.

CWM flasheable:

View attachment 1769004]

Flasheable CWM /data/app fake com.google.android.gms-1 files to prevent to be installed.

First uninstall google playstore service and reboot to CWM flash this, and reboot, finish!.

I have been testing for ours and no force close or errors.

Discovered Side-effects:

-loose the remote playstore install functionality (press install from playstore website from pc). , Remote playstore install works!!

Another ideas are welcome.

Would you confirm please if Google Play Services is where the widgets for Play Recommendations & Play Library came from, and that they will be gone following your steps above? Thanks!

Hello,test yourself, make a nandroid backup and check if it is relationed.

If it is relationed tell me, post there the results.
[Android General] linuxnubee:
all this did was prevent me getting into playstore it opened itself and then closed itself????? thanks
[Android General] Fabur87:
Wouldn't it be easier to just go to the Google Play Services app info page and deactivate it? (Just long press in the app drawer and move it to app info)

Or is there any downside that I am not seeing? (besides it taking up a few kb of space)

I didn't test it since I don't mind the icon.

If you have a custom launcher that can can hide apps use that, that way you also keep the functionality it provides.
[Android General] alecuba16:
This prevent the google play service run in background. Playstore continues working as before.

Not, you can't disable it, this service autostarts automatically. It takes more than few kb, takes about 5MB or more, but this is not the bad.

The bad thing is this could be something relationed with ads and system stadistics and google plus forced by google (remember google don't be evil).
[Android General] Fabur87:
I am not talking about closing it but deactivating it. Are we talking about the same option?

Because I have that option.

Why would it restart when I deactivate it? Or is Google not consequent enough here?

I don't want to try it since it will delete all user data and delete the updates.

But you are right, the app is bigger than I thought (both on the storage and RAM).
[Android General] alecuba16:
Sure?? I remember when I tried for first time that no....... it doesn't remove any user data, you are wrong..... the settings are stored in com.android.settings and com.android.settings.provider

About the updates it doesn't remove the updates.... the updates are part of playstore.apk/vending.apk and marketupdater.apk, not this.

I have news about playstore remote installation, it works!!!!! without this.
[Android General] Fabur87:
I have three buttons in my google play services app info:

'Beenden erzwingen' - force close ?

'Updates deinstallieren' - uninstall updates

AND

'Deaktivieren' - deactivate

If I hit the deactivate button it asks me if I want to reset all user data and all updates.

Are you perhaps on an older android version that does not yet have this?
[Android General] alecuba16:
Mine is Gingerbread (Cyanogen Mod 7.2).

Deactivate is like do nothing. For example, I can with systemcleaner put this service apk on the blacklist , but every time that the service starts the application kills like task killer, but this is bad for CPU,RAM and finally batteries, because it scales the cpu mhz up every time that the service tries to reload.

Is the same that if you put a task killer, you can kill the application but it reload again....

I think that the newer versions of playstore/vending calls automatically this apk service.

The solution is to remove and there is no apk = no application installed = no intent receiver = no aplication starts.

The odex file prevent that android application installer (pacman?) install/update the android play service application apk.

This is because if you create a odex of any apk that you have installed and then delete the apk (no the odex), then reset. You could check that the application disapear from app drawler and android application manager but there is the odex file with the same name of the application. But now if you try to reinstall, the android application shows the message of insufficient space only for this application, you can install any other without problem. This is because the android application installer detects the odex file.

My solution is based on this.

Bye.

Download playstore problems

I cant find playstore to download. How to get it after deleted? Another thing, I cant find com.google.android.gms-1.apk what I have is

com.google.android.gms-2.apk
[Android General] Fabur87:
Deactivate != force close.

They are NOT the same thing.

A deactivated app will not react to any intents. This is completely different from what a task killer does.

But user without Jelly Bean (I think that is the version this option came with) won't be able to do that.

So I guess that deleting the app and then blocking it is the only option for them.
[Android General] alecuba16:
Hello , playstore to download what?

Yes this is the same file but with other number.

You can uninstall it and make a com.google.android.gms-2.odex or com.google.android.gms-1.apk empty file :)
[Android General] alecuba16:
I would recommed that you test it (deactivate) and check with adb shell and top command or "ps" to check if the service runs.

I had JB in the past and I was unable to deactivate. Every time that I entered in the playstore app , the Google services apk was called and running.

There is a lot more going on here. These Google Excreta Droppers are spying on us. I disabled it in startup, and it adds back itself.

The Google Play Services is pushed back in around 2 days after you uninstall. Within these 2 or three days, the Google Play wont install or download any app, it just shows the running bar. Now they have changed the color of their feces. I disabled the Google Play Services. and when I updated the youtube and run it, It says I cannot use it without Google Play Services. I uninstalled the update and it runs like before.

rotten Poop!!

They are definitely spying on us.

I advice you all the users, Do not sit relax. These feces holes should get serious piles, so that their feces accumulate in their bodies and never come out. It will happen.

Man havent you experienced this?

Should I use clock work mod recovery boot to install the attached zip?

And please let me know whether it will allow me to run updated youtube and other services without the Google Play Services.

Will the blank fix everything as before?

[Android General] Lim Wee Huat:
Hmm.. This Google setting app might become useful after this May or in Android 5.0, key lime pie.. Since it's not hogging ram or consuming battery, why not just hide it?
[Android General] alecuba16:
I tested on CM10.1 on nexus one, and the trick works fine.

You have to uninstall it from /data/app and from /system/app......

Then create a odex file into /data/app.

About if it is useful... for me no, there is no useful option to configure if you don't have google plus or google now or something like that...

Hello everyone, I am writing because I have a problem (according to my inexperience) "unique", briefly explain the situation.

I unlocked (at this point I'm not even sure) my device via htc.dev and I was willing to install new rom including cyanogedmod.

A few days ago, trying to follow the guides on installing recovery and to switch to s-off my device in bootloader mode gave me the written abnormal.

To date, my situation is that found in the pictures found in the annex.

I tried to do a factory reset but it does, I tried again to reinstall the original ruu but gives me error 155 on sync.

The phone turns on, everything seems to work perfectly, however, does not take TIM, ie with the sim inserted I can not call them navigate.

I ask you the pleasure to help me solve the problem and fattibilie, the procedure "correct" the face that my case to install new rom.

I look forward to your feedback.

Thanks in advance.

Hi!

I installed Jelly King 2.0 ROM and it's great!

I am quite used to flashing roms and all, since I S-OFFed and rooted it myself (with the help of XDA-dev tutos of course).

But, since I installed this new ROM (I had CM7, CM9 and JellyKing 1.3 before), I have two problems :

- the "home" and the "search" touch buttons won't do anything

- after my phone goes to sleep mode, there is no unlock screen when I awake it (it directly shows the normal screen)

I am too noob here to post directly to the DEV forum, so that's why I post this here. Please forward...

Thanks for your answers!

These issues are caused by improper gapps files. Either you didn't flash them, or something went wrong. Now, I recommend you flash these gapps:

Okay so this is my first post here, so let me know if this is posted in the right or wrong section. First of all I have an lg optimus t that is unlocked and that I use on AT&T at the moment. I am running a nightly cm7 rom with old baseband fix and everything runs perfectly fine. Just uesterday I tried to install rashed97's cm10 for p500 and everything worked except my network. Maybe you guys could suggest a rom that would work or know of a fix. Any help would be greatyl appreciated. By the way try to keep the answer simple as im sorta new to this stuff. Could someone answer quickly, I kinda wanted to get it up and running before I go back to school.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a_loo:
You need to be on the new baseband to be able to have network capabilities if you flash an ICS or JB rom on to the p500. there is a thread somewhere that tells you how to do so.

Follow it carefully though, it's a hassle when you brick your phone.

After you get the new baseband on your phone, you should have network capabilities...if not, try reflashing rashed's rom after wiping everything.

No don't... Just needs old baseband patch.
