Hello everyone.
I am going straight to the point. I have rooted Asus zenfone 4 4" and i uninstaled asus splendid app that could brighten up my screen. I don't have any backup or something. I cant download it even from google play store because it says "Your device is not compatible". Also, i don't want to do factory reset.
Any ideas how can i install it again? Maybe somone has the .apk file or something.
@edit: I downloaded apk of splendid but i can't install it. Any ideas how to install it again on device?
Were you ever able to remedy this situation?? I just picked up a budget ZenPad S 8.0 and am having immense frustrations with screen dimming. And now, to top it all off, i'm getting spammed with this "unfortunately, Splendid has stopped." I've made all the same/similar adjustments that you have, and even read about it before buying an ASUS device, but figured -- how bad could this really be? Since the ASUS Splendid color adjustment software is no longer working, i'm at a loss for how to proceed as it won't uninstall, or even roll back to a previous version after updating it via the Google Play Store. Even attempted to install an APK, but my results (or lack there of) were identical.
Running Android Marshmallow, if that matters.

Root and play services all went without a hitch, but I cannot run an app that requires an additional permission normally accessed via settings>security>apps with usage access. It simply does not exist in the settings menu on the kindle. Is there any way to add the option or access the setting another way?
I've attached a screenshot of the app at the point it gets stuck.
Did you ever get this working?
Sorry, this isn't an answer. For some reason, posting a comment isn't working on this site in any web browser. In any case, I've got the exact situation you do (same HW/SW/root). I'm even trying to get the same app working through the google play store that you are, and am seeing the same message. Did you ever find a solution to this? Were you ever able to get MobileFence running on the Fire?
It is not available on Fire OS. Since Amazon has no use for Google play services.You would have to
Install a different ROM. I would ditch Fire Os and set it up as a kids tablet under CM or SlimLP. There is a good thread on how to do it in the Fire forum.
This proves Jeff Bezos is as big a crooks as the rest of them.
This stinks to high heaven!
Actually no, business model is solid even though it displeases some. Purchase a different device If you dislike Amazon's ecosystem.

I know this is an old post, but since I came across it looking for a solution, I thought I should answer for others that come across this looking for a solution...
I found the answer on this thread, but here's the tl;dr version:
Download App Ops, which also requires Shizuku Manager.
I was trying to install AppLock which has a similar issue and this fixed it for me.
Both my google play, and Android wear are completly updated. However when ever I try to start certain apps it tells me i need to update either google play services or android wear, both of which are the current version. This seems to effect mostly the google apps like google keep. Any Ideas, I just got this about 2 days ago.
This is happening to me too. On the Android Wear phone app, certain actions are either greyed out (navigation) or missing entirely (texting). When I try to open certain apps on the wear I get a grey screen that says "Update Android Wear on your Phone". And that's it. Other apps like custom watch faces will not properly sync or update and give me a "Try updating google play services" error message.
I've tried resetting the watch several times along with resyncing apps, reinstalling the Wear phone app, etc. None of these are fixing the issue.

Yup. Same think. Also i see that some people are able to even text via the watch though the phone which i cannnot do.
My watch still says android Software version 5.0.1 but my friend who had his longer has been 5.1.1 for a long it me now. This is one of the big reasons for me to think of rooting and trying a custom ROM but I dont really see any. Or even flash the update myself.
The watch won't update until your phones updated.
Go into settings on the watch, check out the build number. If it contains 'sprat-userdebug' in the string then you aren't on a base rom and you need to flash it stock. Just got mine and apparently this was/is known from a batch that went in to the reseller market. BestBuy got nailed by it and lots of pissed off people.
There is a tool here that can help you get on a stock rom that will allow the OTA updates to happen.
I'm in the same boat, haven't had a chance to try it yet but will report back tonight.
EDIT:
Worked great - flash back to the stock ROM, pair with your phone and it will get the OTA updates. They take awhile and process one by one, but success. Good luck! I had a rough time getting the ADB drivers on Win 8.1, although I think it's my crappy laptop. Worked on a Win 7 machine I had around without issue.
All my google play services were wiped out, Google play crashes when I try to open. Is my tablet hosed? Don't they test these effing updates?
Hey every been a while since i posted. Recently my play store auto updated itself. I had thought i properly blocked this but I must have inadvertently changed a setting while switching accounts. I had a modded apk but cant find it. Im back to stock but rooted kitkat. The thing is I started noticing im getting these annoying messages about wannam being a harmfull ap. I am suspecting I updated google services? No clue
Please I am not looking for a "cracked" playstore apk, ive got a dozen or so paid for apps I want to keep just want to go back to my old play store version and not have ps auto update. Ive already done the obvious: unistall, go back to factory, block updater via Tb, etc etc. Any one have a modded apk they could share? Please no cracked free app mods. I am 100% against this kind of stuff, its actually stealing. Any help would be great. Thx! Tmo Galaxy n4 rooted and running on att android 4.3.
Figured it out. So far so good. What ever happened to google being the "dev friendly" "open source" system? Android is turning more and more into ios. Damn play store app updated itself like 3 times. Sad. I wonder where my d2 is prob still runnind rooted ics. I get the feeling that google is trying very hard to eliminate the ability to root all together. Hope im wrong. /rant
Yesterday I updated to Oreo as the ZTE Axon M update service showed a new update available. On update Google Play would no longer launch and Play Services was not functioning. The Google Application services were pre-installed on the phone when purchased and shipped from AliExpress.
I figured I would reset the phone and on reset all Google functionality was removed.
I figured I would simply install the GAPPS services again and followed this thread:
https://android.gadgethacks.com/how...-store-without-gapps-google-services-0176241/
However once everything installs and I launch the Play Store I get a white blank screen.
I would have expected to be prompted for the Google Account login screen and if I check Accounts from settings I can see that there is a Google Account listed but not configured and if I click it I am told to add the account from the relevant app. There is no other shortcut installed though other than Google Play Store which hangs as described previously.
I have tried various other ways to get this sorted out but the end result is the same, inability to add a google account and no way to launch the play store.
I considered YalpStore but its really not fit for purpose because anything that requires the Google Play Services framework will not run.
My phone is not rooted but it appears it does not need to be for GAPPS install functionality. I can see many threads that say this works without the need for rooting (and in any event there are no guides for rooting an Axon M).
My question is simply how do I the Google Play Store and Google Play Services to work on the ZTE Axon M with the Oreo update ? It is driving me nuts and I would never have proceeded with the update if I had realised it would simply be removed.
Same
I'm. Having the same problem I tryed everything
Me too please we want solution
Did you try the same package used for the Xiaomi devices? I have to play on that (it's the rev 2).

I tried, same issue crashing
I tried multiple methods too, but to no avail.
I do suspect a possibility. The previous time when i managed to get my gapps working when i first got the Chinese set, i had to disable the "Mi-Assistant" App as that was the one preventing my Google Play Services from Auto-Running even though it was set to allow. This time, I can not even see Google Play Services in the Auto-Run Manager and while i tried to force stop and disable the "Mi-Assistant" App, it does not allow me to disable.
I hope this info can help provide some leads to an expert who would be able to help us get back our GApps running again.
Thanks.
I do agree... meanwhile take a look here: https://code.tutsplus.com/articles/10-alternative-android-app-stores--cms-20999
good morning I found the application with the google play store inside the play store zte. After several attempts I managed to install a heavy game (1.3 GB) as ADERA disabling all the Chinese apps, keeping the display always active, I only downloaded via wi-fi. So I managed to download it without problems (I do not know which of these changes worked). the application has a triangular design with central red, the word Google followed by two Chinese characters
Hi, are you on the Android Oreo Update?

yes oreo 8.1 axon m 6 / 128gb. If there is the possibility I can post images of the app. One thing the app inside contains the play store but the apps that you download do not appear on the home of the device but within the app itself
Sounds like an emulator to me.. Would be great if you could provide the images of the app. Any small information helps.
Btw, to all, i did manage to download a GApps installer which seemed promising, cause at least it went into the login page for Google Account. But then the error of requesting to update "Google Play Services" popped up again and again and everything went down the drain again. Will try further and hopefully will have good news.
I'm new on the forum you have to explain to me how to post the images. thank you
Dears... did you see that in the ZTE Store?
Search for Google Play...

There is an application in the ZTE Market that installs a pseudo Google Play but it is sandboxed somehow and you have to launch this app to get access to your installs - feels very insecure to me - I just want a clean Google Play on the device
unfortunately for now it is the only solution I found. Otherwise you must use third-party app stores such as amazon, aptoide, etc.

I posted a link with a few of alternative stores (the best is to get the apk stand-alone ihmo) but if it is to follow that sandbox ways, as suggest, create a new "junky" account just to have it registered.
Any Update??!!
So I just upgraded my Nexus 6 from stock 7.1.1 to LineageOS 15.1 (Android 8.1). The installation went very smoothly and the phone feels like new. I spent hours getting the apps set up and I started to notice that some of the apps didn't get reinstalled automatically. Then I realized that Netflix never got reinstalled... no worry, I'll just go install it. Couldn't find it in the play store, then I found this url: https://help.netflix.com/en/node/12983 which first has you check the play store for certification. Mine says "Device is not certified". Is this expected? I must be missing a host of various apps from the play store because of this. I googled a bit and searched the Nexus 6 forums here for certification and certified but couldn't find anything useful for Nexus 6 phones that end up with this message.
The netflix help page instructs you to manually install the app at the end. I tried doing that and when I launch it, it reports "This device is not supported by the app" and closes. So I guess I'm SOL? The weird thing is my wife's phone is a Samsung S5 and it's been running LOS for a long time, 15.1 up until about a month ago then upgraded to 16. I've been running netflix on it from the play store forever. I've used netflix on my Nexus with 7.1.1 before I wiped it. How do I get it working again? I'm wondering if I go to LOS 16 which I guess I *could* try...
Any suggestions?? Can I spoof the play store so it works somehow?
I've done some more googling and I found these pages:
https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-fix-device-not-certified-by-google-error/
https://www.xda-developers.com/google-removes-100-device-registration-limit-uncertified-device-page/
I put my GSF Device-ID into this page: https://www.google.com/android/uncertified/ and I'm still unable to find netflix in the play store. Am I screwed?
Is everyone who uses Lineage OS on their Nexus 6 unable to use Netflix and other certified-only apps?

From my experience, initially the playstore wont let you install netflix after a fresh install but it has happened numerous times where I go back into the playstore later or after clearing playstore data that it becomes available. I have never used lineage though on our phones. Both our phones are running CrDroid Pie Unofficial and Netflix works fine but after the initial clean flash its not downloadable immediately from the Playstore but does become available either after some reboots and/or wiping playstore data.
I got it worked out. I needed Magisk. Very nice solution to this issue.

The solution is what I posted above: "Magisk". Really sorry I don't have more details for you -- that post was from 2019 and I've since upgraded to a different phone. Unfortunately, my Nexus 6 broke. I can scarcely remember what happened yesterday let alone from several years ago. What I do recall is that side-loading Magisk gives you controls to override some of the underlying restrictions. You should install it and play around with it if you're trying to get this to work.
