So here's my problem. I successfully flashed my Galaxy S GT-I9000 to ICS Infinitum but I have a problem. I tried installing apps which is root required but my phone says I need to root my phone in order to use that app but when I check, I have superuser access. I can't even see my sim contacts. And I tried disabling 2g but 3g won't come up. How will I fix this? I wanted to post this to Infinitum thread but system won't allow me because I'm a newbie. Please help
Go to recovery mode and wipe data and cache

I will try that and let you know.
EDIT: Thank you. I have my 3g working now And with the root problem, I went to superuser preferences and allow it always. Thanks dude! Is there a way to go back to my old gallery? I like the 3d gallery.
I had a bug on CM9 where Superuser permissions wouldn't pop up, going into superuser and changing the setting to automatically allow worked, but I don't recommend doing this for obvious security reasons.

Did you find something weird about the camera? I think mine is a little bit dark. And yes I know about that superuser permission. But the thing is, you wouldn't install that app if you don't want it to be allowed right? Of course you always allow those apps that you want to install that's why I set it to 'always allow'
EDIT: Is there a way to set my notification tone and ringing tone?
Funny. Can't even send a message. Can't add recipients. Tch
Make "Fix permissions" in the recovery.

Good to hear that is working now!=)
If you mean Android's stock gallery, I attach it. Download it to your sdcard.
Download File Manager (Rhytm Software).
Then open it-->settings-->scroll--->check root explorer-->click yes--->check Mount system folders.
Now copy that .apk to system/app and reboot.

Hi all,
When buying your S2 in China, you while probably have the bad surprise to discover Google Play is not installed on the device.
Even by installing some .apk downloaded from the web doesn't solve the issue.
I managed to got mine working. Here's how i did.
I find the hint here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351283
You'll need to Root your device first
Here's how it goes:
1) Install GoogleServicesFramework.apk
This seems to be the issue, as when you install it you can see the permissions Google requires, and pretty much says it can access ALL the data in your phone, even the private stuff. You've been warned. (what did you expect? it's still Google after all)
2) Install Google Play with any .apk you can find, as system app (see bellow):
Instructions (Thanks to Bandage)
-1. Transfer the .apk files to your Kindle Fire via PC / Mac (remember where you put them)
- 2. Open Root Explorer App, and navigate to the transferred .apk files
- 3. Select the GoogleServiceFramework.apk and install
- 4. When complete, click "Done" and return to the file location for Vending.apk
- 5. Long-press Vending.apk and select the "Move" option on pop-up menu
Navigate to /system/app folder
- 6. Change mount option from RO to RW (read-only to read-write)
Paste Vending.apk into the /system/app folder
- 7. Long-press Vending.apk and select "Permissions" from pop-up menu
Change permissions to match all other apps in this folder (rw-r--r--)
- 8. Install Vending.apk
- 9. Reboot device
3) Launch Google Play
You should now be able to input your account and login.
For the first login, you will probably need to turn on both Wifi and APN (also can try turning off Wifi and only use APN).
You can now browse the market, but still can not install any apps.
Final step: You'll need to send some e-mail to Google (go to google play web site -> help). Explain the problem, they need to allow Play to be used by your device.
Took me a couple e-mail to get it right. The google team was very kind open to help (unlike samsung).
Go ahead and install any app you want
I recommend starting by installing Market Unlocker (especially for those in China). It lets you get the market as if you where in another country.
Hope this has been useful.
And don't forget to press the Thanks button
I actually did this a while ago (I wanted to try it out first before sharing). So i may be forgetting some specific points. Let me know how it turns out for you so i can update this How To.
Cheers
Chewee
May the force be with you
Thanks!
I tried many other ways, but they just would not work on my I9100G!
Just now I have tried this simple method and it works perfectly.
For me the final step is not necessary.
Thanks again!
Thanks for the reply. I really appreciate.
Glad i could be of any help
I did add all google services on my chinese G in november, i basically have all google services working, including calendar sync, and still on stock GB.
What i did was to take all the google apps from CM and put them in the system app folder with correct permissions.
But i remember i did setup gmail sync before getting google market (now play store) to work correctly.
For the calendar, only the sync adapter is needed, do not replace other apps, it's not needed.

HI I followed the steps but at stage 3 after reboot I open google play it 'force closes' automatically. I cannot open play app. What may be the issue. This is Chinese phone, i also tried one of the market unlcker.. is there any specific version you can suggest ?
Ok now it opens google play and displays 'loading' but nothing appears. Funny that when I try to install it from website it says 'app will be sent/installed on your phone shortly' but nothing happens
I installed a market unlocker (some random one which configured my China phone for USA T-mobile - there are other countries i can configure for too)
Any guess what could be problem ?
It's not the right way!!!
It seems to work properly, but it may cause some problem, frequent FC for example. And some apps even can't work, such as Foursquare, which you can have a try.It's not only the Google Play but also the whole gapps that are not included in the Chinese ROM. The GoogleServicesFramework.apk and GooglePlay.apk are just part of it, so this problem can't be solved by simply installing some apks.
The right way is to download the right gapps from this page: goo.im/gapps and flash it from CMW.To do that, you must flash a kernel first, such as superatoms, lucir.
Or, you can simply root your phone and decompress that zip file and move it to your phone to the right folder.Never forget to fix the permission. You'd better do that through adb.
I can't agree with what you're saying. I have a chinese G and installed all google apps from Cyanogen wiki, with the exception of goggles, everything else work perfect ! Including Gmail with full sync, contacts with full sync,calendar with full sync, music working, books working etc ... Stock zcki1 rooted.

Thanx for the walkthrough. I got the market working but can't download. Will be contacting Google help soon.
ICS 4.0.4
They just released the ICS 4.0.4 ROM for China, that one also does not have any of the GAPPS, in addition some
service providers actively block Google services so installing GAPPS will do no good unless you set up a VPN

What permission are you talking about?
If you are talking about the root, their are a lot of threads talking about how to do it on xda, and all over the web.

I think I may need an 'idiots guide' to all this because I have no clue and no idea what flash and all thats means.... I brought my S2 online and had no idea it was coming from China and that it won't have Google Play on there.
I have tried the above steps but can't even get the 1st one right.. :/
I have tried downloading 'Google Service Framework.apk' from my phone and computer but everytime it tries to install it, it finishes by saying 'Application Not Installed'. Really getting very confused and need urgent help. Please can you let me know where I am going wrong? Many thanks.
Seems you didn't root your phone.
But before doing anything, you should learn a little bit what you are about to do. There are several threads on root issues, or guides for begginers.
Also, double check if you have the i9100 or i9100G version. It's important when you root.

Just wondering about kernel version number too. Mine says '2.6.35.7-I9100'. Does this seem right? Thanks
You are checking the android version. That's not what's important. What you need to check is to take the same kernel version and rom version called basedband version (may be the similar with the build number). For example i have the i9100gzcle2 version. There are some threads about this around here.

Hi shivaraman.
I'm not sure i understand exactly what is your problem. Do you have Play installed? Can you install some apps with it? If yes, you're all good.
Market enabler is only going to help.you once you get Play working correctly. Market Enabler doesnt fix Play. It only simulate you are from another country, as if you changed your sim card.
I figured out this methode using android 2.3.6. There is no guaranty it works on ICS. I would suggest trying swiching back to 2.3.6 (if possible, it might be the hatdest part) and try the methode again. Play stays installed when upgrading to 4.0.4
A lot of apps are blocked due to the chinese ROM. Seem the bootloader is posing the problem and is locked. I still didnt find any solution for that. A couple month ago Odia started posting he may had a solution. But he never told what it was.

I've read a bit on Google Apps permissions, but I'm kind of stuck figuring out how to/what needs to be set for Google Play Movies to work consistently without having to reinstall it again after shutting down the KFHD. I can only surmise that something doesn't have the correct permissions set. Any help here?

Since no one replied yet, I'll try to help. There is a post about GAPPS without rooting so I'll paste instructions here and maybe you can get the permissions:
1. Enable installation of applications from unknown sources in Kindle Fire Settings.
2. Install GoogleLoginService.apk.
3. Reboot.
4. Install the Google Apps.
5. Start YouTube. Sign In. It will take you to Google Account Manager to create/use existing Google credentials.
6. Same goes for other apps. In case sign in fails for any of the apps (except Maps/GTalk) drag down the Kindle Fire notification bar, click on the notification for "Permission requested....." and assign required permissions.

Do you find it in /data/app? Are you rooted?
Steps to install in countries where OTA has not come yet:
1. Install a VPN client from Google Play
2. Shut down phone and remove SIM card(s)
3. Restart, head to settings and clear cache and data for Google App, Google Framework, Google Play Services and Location Service
4. Reboot
5. Start wifi and open VPN client, chosing as country Germany or Netherlands or India. For me, in Romania, model TA-1053, selecting Germany did the trick
5. Go to update and check. You may have to repeat this last operation a few times if no luck from first one.
Can confirm this works

Working for TA-1024. Thanks
Is there any way to revert back Oreo after updating Pie? Pie seems to work quite bad, for example screen won't turn off at all. It just keep changing between black screen, clock on black screen and lockscreen randomly for ages. I have restarted phone but it won't help. Oreo worked quite good so I want it back..:crying:
The metod works great on TA-1024, just updating now, thanks a lot prietene, să trăiești!
Can somebody backup OTA file for ta-1024 model?!
Glad it works @WildWolfInside . Sa traiesti you too!

Steps to install in countries where OTA has not come yet:
1. Install a VPN client from Google Play
2. Shut down phone and remove SIM card(s)
3. Restart, head to settings and clear cache and data for Google App, Google Framework, Google Play Services and Location Service
4. Reboot
5. Start wifi and open VPN client, chosing as country Germany or Netherlands or India. For me, in Romania, model TA-1053, selecting Germany did the trick
5. Go to update and check. You may have to repeat this last operation a few times if no luck from first one.

This works for the TA-1027 if set on the Netherlands server.
I have posted this earlier on MIUI community but I don't think anyone concerned with Bugs has taken notice of it.
I am MIUI 11.0.6(India).
From the day I have bought this device and started using it, I am facing this issue. For any kind of app, I basically see 0 byte as its storage when I open the app info. I am not shown any Cache/Data for any app(System/Third Party). That does mean they don't have the data. If I use the cleaner I am shown the amount of cache my mobile has accumulated.
The reason I can't ignore this is because there are times when a particular app doesn't behave properly, and you just want to reset it by clearing its cache and data without uninstalling the app which sadly I can't do.
I was on MIUI 11.0.4 when I started facing this issue and it is still there. I don't want to do a factory reset and start all over again.
Here is the link with attached images and complete description.

Anyone facing it / knows fixes ?
Can't clear app data/cache
I have been facing the same issue for the past few days. I searched for it everywhere but can't find a solution. It's strange that nobody has taken a notice of this issue. can't find a post related to this. Even if there's a post like yours, there're no replies or solutions.
Bro, have you found a solution to your problem yet?
If you have, please let me know.
Usage Access Permission is Denied
Hi, I had this same issue with RN8Pro.
Solution: You need to allow Usage Access permission to Security App from Settings > Privacy > Special Permissions > Usage Access. (Be sure to click more and "show system"). Reboot after changing permissions.
So happy I was thinking to restore factory settings on my phone and had backed up all the data but that's the solution.
If it helped you please hit Thanks.
Just turn on usage access for Security and you are done...!!
.
Search usage acces in settings and you will get there..It helps
Giving usage access to Security worked for me...Thanx. Redmi note 9 pro with miui 12 android 11.
