gapps and play services error

I have been running the original 4.4.4 rom for about 3 years without any issues. In January 2017, it just kept displaying:

process.com.google.process.gapps has stopped

&

google play services stopped

+ framework services stopped

These 2 messages pop up continually and i cannot get them to stop.

I have tried all of the things online (googled it) but no luck.

I did not update the rom, gapps or supersu file at all from the original.

Does anyone have any ideas otherwise my xoom is a doorstop.

additional: i would update to LP or MM, but i use the hdmi feature

many thanks in advance
[Xoom Android Development] quicktongue:
same problem!!!!!! started 2 days ago!
[Xoom Android Development] Paprika88:
Same here, idk if maybe downloading Text to speech might have done this?

Is the new update to Google play services no longer compatible?
[Xoom Android Development] Babyface_male:
Same here! All of my 3 Xooms are affected. Even (re)flashing different ROMs didn’t help. Hope, Google will fix this. My Xooms are too young to die!
[Xoom Android Development] subrico:
Same problem on my xoom 4.4 omnirom and on Asus TF101 6.1 KatKiss.

The only way on asus was re-flashing without Gapps.

After this i'll may re-flashing Gapp 2016 and block auto-update. Not quite easy...
[Xoom Android Development] SgtTeabag:
I'm having the same errors too! I've tried everything I can think of and I can't get them to stop.

Downgrade Google Play Services to version 10.0.84
[Xoom Android Development] SgtTeabag:
Does anyone have a link on instructions how to downgrade gapps please? I've never had to downgrade before. :(
[Xoom Android Development] dog-man:
Applications manager and uninstall updates for Google play services. It will then revert to whatever version it had when leaving the factory.

Just don't update it again.
[Xoom Android Development] kattycris:
I formatted the tablet and put the version here from the topic, as in the play store this with the automatic download active, it updates the google play services for version that is not compatible with the 4, did factory restore and deactivated the automatic update and it worked normal . I put the version Play Services to version 10.0.84 and updated the applications like gmail, maps and this normal one.

Disable playstore automatic updates. If you want the previous versions you will find on the site uptodownload.
[Xoom Android Development] wf201626:
hi Kattycris

many xoom users are now facing the same issue about crashing google play service. I wondered how you did to stop google play service auto update.

I have disabled the play stop app auto update. but as soon as I updated any app, a few minutes later, the google play service updated to newest and crashing again.

i googled the method how to disable the google play service auto update, it seemed there is no way to do so.

could you please share a bit how you did it.

thanks in advance

Can I post that link?

Google Play Services 10.0.84 – 030 – Size: 46.99 MB

I downloaded this one and it worked.

Its for android <5.0

For armeabi-v7a

Universal dpi

You have to reset play services to factory setting before installing
[Xoom Android Development] wf201626:
I think I got the play services auto update stopped.

yes, the 10.0.84 is what i used.

there is the how i did it. i used this as reference - https://xdaforums.com/android/help/delete-disable-downgrade-prevent-update-t3091832

before use this method, backup your xoom.

1. make sure your xoom is rooted.

2. download System App Remover .

3. download google play service at askmirror.com

4. enable airplane mode.

5. uninstall google play service in system app remover, AKA uninstaller.

6. install google play service 10.0.84.

7. in /app/data/ create a empty file named com.google.android.gms-2.apk. make sure the permission is same as com.google.android.gms-1.apk. or 644

8. reboot

9. backup again.

10. update one of google app and check the play service. it should be staying the same version.

let me know if the method works for you.

thanks

[Xoom Android Development] andPS2:
with 10.0.84 – 030 it works af first

after doing twrp backup and rebooting i get the google play services has stopped

error again though

play store still works though but annoying

update--

problem seems to go deeper

open_gapps_arm_4.4_pico_20161030 error occurs too after a while

even with gapps-wingray-kk-20131223.zip (from the OP) error occurs after a while

no idea how to solve it

i'm gonna try to titanium backup and restore all my apps

guess youtube wont work anymore without playservices though

might have to use in browser then...
[Xoom Android Development] andPS2:
https://xdaforums.com/android/help/delete-disable-downgrade-prevent-update-t3091832

seems to work for me

dont even need that uninstaller app as u can just install any updates for play services under apps (revert to factory version)

i get an notification that google play services needs to be updated but everything is working - but notifications can be turned off for play services under apps

playstore, updating apps and latest youtube are working

best workaround so far

p.s. thanks to [MENTION=3902940]wf201626[/MENTION] for pointing out the way

p.s.s. argl after a few minutes i got google play services was stopped error again but only once

installing new apps takes longer than usual but works

some apps say playstore is updating

everything seems to work so far -> still a rather dirty workaround i guess...

UPDATE: couple of hours later play stores still updates ;(

GAPPS

Hi, go to 4.4 as 6.0 is not stable enough yet. I've done everything and all works fine except for GApps. Where not matter what I do I get "unfortunatley xxxx has stopped". Using Open Gapp ARM 4.4 Micro......wiped eveyrthing multiple times and I still can't use anything google.

What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: Ok by not turning on wifi, disabling download manager, then turning on wifi. Everything is working except the playstore. getting no errors can use youtube, maps, drive etc no problem.

EDIT 2: To use Playstore you have to turn download manager on, Go into Playstore and turn off auto-update this works but not for long......probably have 10-15 mins download some of your apps that you want. It will then screw up again, as it will update play service. Disable download manager again, and uninstall the play services update. It should all work again then.
[Xoom Android Development] hellbrandt:
This is what worked for me:

- Flash ROM

- Flash SuperSU

- Don't install Gapps yet

- Go to: https://xdaforums.com/eee-pad-transformer/general/how-to-fix-crashing-google-play-services-t3557521

- Download the Gapps apk linked in that post version 10.0.84 as described.

- Disable Wi-fi, then install downloaded Gapps apk.

- Create the two folders com.google.android.gms-1.apk and com.google.android.gms-2.apk in \data\app (I had to use a different version SuperSU to get full root to do this).

- Jump back to TWRP and flash Gapps for this ROM from first post.

That's it! Worked for me.
[Xoom Android Development] slow1234:
Somebody named Just_Golem posted in the Google support forums and indicated the following potentially good news:

Apparently today's beta version of Google Play Services (version 10.5.42) may have resolved the Google Play Services issues.

Hopefully it gets pushed to all devices soon.

Updating

Hi

I've flashed the [ROM][4.4.4] OmniROM - Wingray - bigPart with the gapps, pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.2-20131215-signed.zip, and UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.86.zip. All work well. Thanks.

Question is, am I supposed to update when/if required or should I disable any updates?

I tried to update Gmail, but of course it requires the latest google play service. If/when I do it, I get all the errors possible.

Also, I see that some have updated to Google Play services 10.0.84. I am still on 4.0.34 (924341-38), which looks odd to me as I have a Wingray and would believe that they would work with a similar google play service.

Again, would updating to this version improve anything? All works well as it is. But I like to update for the fun of it.. whenever it is working.

Thanks T
[Xoom Android Development] auval:
just downloaded 10.5.42 from apkmirror

(version 032-149175906)-10542032_minAPI14(armeabi-v7a)(160dp)

and installed it on the xoom.

It fixed the google play services endless errors! Now I can install any app from Google Play again.

install with: adb install -r the.apk

After restart it told me there's a new version of Google Play Services, and after I pressed "ok" - it updated the version without any issue.
[Xoom Android Development] ThomasAstor:

(030) or (032)?

[Xoom Android Development] ThomasAstor:
Hi

I used this method:

"Instructions:

Disable WiFi.

Use System app remover to uninstall Google Play services, this will make it revert to the factory supplied version.

Install the Google Play services apk. The 10.5.42 (from apkmirror)(032)

Create two folders in \data\app and name them com.google.android.gms-1.apk and com.google.android.gms-2.apk.

This will stop Google Play services from auto updating. You should be able to create at least one. Do not overwrite any existing file.

Restart and enable WiFi."

All seems to work. All updates work too.

Thanks T

Hi

Sorry Auval, I didn't see your post.

I see that with your second method, Google play services can be updated.

Never used adb before. Checked that it's easy with Terminal on Mac.

Will backup and try.

Thanks T
[Xoom Android Development] ThomasAstor:
Auval hi

I've tried to install with " with: adb install -r the.apk"

I could not install adb on my Mac.

Googled it, still no success.

I'm sure it's simple, but..

I thought I could with Terminal, but cannot. Don't know how for what ever reasons.

So I put 10.5.42 on the sd card, and click to install it.

It worked. Had few errors before updating it.

Updated the rest with no problems.

I also removed apps I do not use with Uninstall while removing google play service.

It still works today.

Thanks T
[Xoom Android Development] auval:
I'm glad it worked!

There is explanation on StackOverflow on how to install adb on Mac. (I cannot post a link here since I'm new here).

But installing it via sdcard, or by mounting the phone and copying the file over - has the same result - updating Google Play Services to a working version.

Glad it worked!
[Xoom Android Development] Yatoro:
Worked for me. No more nagging so far.

For ADB install related issues follow this instructions:

http://lifehacker.com/the-easiest-way-to-install-androids-adb-and-fastboot-to-1586992378

Remeber to enable USB Debugging

From www.howtogeek.com

"usb_debugging To use ADB with your Android device, you must enable a feature called USB debugging. Open your phone’s app drawer, tap the Settings icon, and select “About Phone”. Scroll all the way down and tap the “Build Number” item seven times. You should get a message saying you are now a developer.

Head back to the main Settings page, and you should see a new option near the bottom called “Developer Options”. Open that, and enable “USB Debugging”.

Later on, when you connect your phone to your computer, you’ll see a popup entitled “Allow USB Debugging?” on your phone. Check the “Always allow from this computer” box and tap OK."

This is happening to me as well. All switches are set to apply on boot. After noticing this didn't work, I DLed Kernel Adiutor and saved my settings for boot. Still no go. Happens everytime I turn the screen on, not just after reboot. I have to go into kernel settings each time and set the max to 1600 every wakeup.....frustrating.

Also, I've set dev options for ART. Xoom just rebooted. No optimization process. When I went back into dev options, Dalvik was still showing. Any help?

Hello, not sure if this thread is being monitored but I'll give it a go. I've installed this and I'm enjoying the rom. One issue I'm having is when I put the Xoom in the docking station, I cannot use the tablet. It is just frozen on the home screen. I cannot find anywhere in settings or developer settings to make it work, does anyone have any advice? Thank you!
[Xoom Android Development] edmun:
I know that this thread might be dead

but I am one of those lucky people which are still using MZ604 Motorola Xoom Wifi tablet.

The only purpose it serves is to connect to my home VPN server and run IPCamViewer to show the security cameras.

Unfortunately, once per year, the laptop just dies and goes into boot loop or does not boot at all

(stuck on booting animation which is frozen).

Erasing cache and wiping the data (factory reset) does not resolve the issue.

The only way to fix it is actually to flash new system through fastboot.

I have checked my hard drives at home and haven't found any firmware for my tablet.

I have flashed the original one without any issues,

but strangely the Europe international one which is Android 3.0.3 updates (OTA) only to 4.0

where for me to run OpenVPN Connect and IPCamViewer is minimum Android 4.1.

I have found this thread, spent quite a while to locate the correct download links and voila! since yesterday,

I have Omni 4.4.4 on my Xoom tablet.

The first thing that I have noticed is that when I go to system update, it does not create any folders.

Issue number 2 - the VPN does not work :/

It connects to the server, but once connected - I can't reach anything within my local network.

I can't also ping any domain names (even google) with error "network name not resolved".

Exactly like the DNS would not be an issue but can't find anywhere any DNS settings on this distribution in Wifi Advanced Settings.

Anyone might have an idea if this Omni ROM has some extra difficulties?

Any suggestion of any other releases which could be worth to try?

I am now on BigPart partitions.

P.S. Sorry for digging out such an old thread, but this is the last firmware I have tried.

I don't really care about the camera or bluetooth or HDMI,

because I only use this tablet for connecting by Wifi to an AP,

running OpenVPN to connect to home network and running IPCamViewer to view streaming from the cameras.

[Xoom Android Development] shpitz461:
The 601 is the european 3G model? i can't remember... in order to flash those you'll have to do the BigPart mod which increases the size of the /system partition, there's a thread for that.

if you flash any of these you'll lose 3G capability if i remember correctly. It's such an old tablet that it won't be a big deal if you mess it up and brick it...
