[Q] SIDELOADING APKs QUESTION - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Gee, I cannot wait until all the senior members rip me a new one and say "if you'da just searched _____ you'd find it" or something similar I'm not THAT dumb, I DO perform some research to the best of my ability, but not all the time do I find exactly what I'm looking for, so please, just save it for a rainy day people...
THE QUESTION THOUGH:
Through XDAs homepage I noticed there's many posts for APKs being released for apps (mainly through APK Mirror)
What I am trying to find out is:
1) Since most of the APKs I am interested in are just more current/updated versions of their Play Store counterparts (ie - Facebook that I have currently is version 33.xxx.xxx downloaded from Play Store yet version 35.xxxx is available through APK Mirror) do I have to manually keep sideloading APKs in order to update these apps or will they self-update somehow?
2) Spotify is another example I have in question - if I uninstall it from my phone (nexus 6) then download and install the APK from APK MIrror does Play Store register that I have it installed on my phone and list it under "My Apps" and update it when the Play Store version that's available surpasses my sideloaded APK version?
I appreciate all your assistance.

first off, questions go into the q&a/help section, not into the general section.
if you install an app not from the play store, then you have to keep updating it that way. only if you install through tbe play store will the play store see your app, and let you update it.

You could just say "I've searched and couldn't find an answer" rather than being confrontational.

If the app fingerprint matches, it will show in play. It probably won't let you update it though. For example I bought office suite pro from Amazon. It shows me that its installed in play but I can only update via amazonm

thank you.

I suppose beginning my question as I did was indeed confrontational, however, I felt as if I needed to because there's ALWAYS someone there to make people feel like garbage for asking questions and since I'm new I felt as if I needed to defend myself beforehand.

And unfortunately they are right most of the time though putting people down isn`t intended i`am sure, thats how you experience it. You turn to people with a question who read up and aquire some skills during time and you defend yourself by saying i`am new here and did almost no research to find the answer to my question. You cannot tell me that on the WWW there isn`t an answer too your question

Here's a question along those lines - You update say GP Maps thru apkmirror. That's the same sig as in the store, my question is if one "pre-loads" it from the APK by sideloading, and it shares the same signature, why later on would I receive another "update" within GPS for it for the version I already installed by APK?
That would lead me to believe the sig's are not exact.

How to find my paid programs?

Hi!
I wrote already similar question on Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 thread, but didn't got right answer. Got only one answer: go menu/ my apps. LOL. It shows the apps, what you have installed on your phone..
I am looking a way how to find my paid apps on Google Play market. Early days, when Google Android OS FroYo was hard stuff and market had name Android Market, there was a way find your paid apps. Not anymore. Even with this brand new Google Play market.
I am not talking now about custom ROM's and problem to find paid apps; prob.build or market enablers. No no. I can see all my apps if I just remember the name or have took a list with App Dragon or similar app collector. But if time runs on, you have change to forgot some your paid apps. Like I had bought Minecraft pocket edition when Google Market celebrated 10 000 000 0000 downloads and the price was only 10 cent. Etc.
Problem would be solved if there is a similar value than File Managers on PC have: name, modified, type, size, or it have advanced search for your paid apps. Or there is own tab for your paid apps.
Now I am looking your help. Have you met an app, what can search your paid apps or how you search them? In my case if I go with my PC browser to Google Play market, I can see first my installed apps for current AndroidOS. In this case Mackay v4.2.2 Jelly Bean custom ROM. Below I see other larger list of apps from early days and it start from first day I used my Android phone. There are all apps what I have installed and then uninstalled. Becouse the list is so huge, it can show only from letter A to E. So, if I have one hour time to browse all list, I can find some paid apps there, but if my paid app start letter F - Z, then I can see it never again. I have lost them forever, if I cannot remember the app name.
This forum is for qualifying members to release their paid applications. Please follow up on your original thread in the appropriate forum.

[Q] Google Play Store Broken

For ages now, my play store has not been working, and now I've reached my tolerance limit for I need flashfire to update to lollipop
3 weeks ago my friend told me he knows a way for me to keep my paid apps but get refunded as I just purchased poweramp. I was rooted so I gave him my phone. He told me he was going to install MOD EDIT and then modded play store. I have no idea what either do and I'm not concerned for what they do but when he did it, google play store was completely wiped off my device due to some form of error. I tried to install via apk, it lets me open the app but when google play tries to install or update, it crashes, and after placing vending.apk in my system apps folder, still occurs. Google play can't even open. Just crashes after clicking the app.:crying:
Any suggestions?
I'd also be great full if someone could provide me with a flashfire apk if possible
I managed to get the apk for flashfire, updated to lollipop and everything was fixed.
Lol:fingers-crossed::good:

While I agree with your sentiment, I doubt that was worth a report. He wasn't asking for help to pirate a program, he was asking how to undo what his friend did to his phone.
Personally, I would reinstall kit kat from a backup before your friend put illegal stuff on the phone. If you don;t have a backup I'd install the rooted image and start from scratch.

Theft is theft
Even mentioning "the app that shall go nameless" here is a no-no, even though the OP seemed to be genuinely seeking help...the fact that he claims to have figured out how to keep his stolen things is all the more reason to close this thread and provide a stern warning for anyone reading that using software such as the aforementioned is ultimately hurting this community and the developers who work on things for our devices. Keep talk about it, whether seeking help or not, off of our forums.

Living without PlayStore

So... I've searched for a similar thread, but I didn't found any so I decided to make a new one.
As I don't want to use any google services on my telephone I had to purge Play Store also. I've searched for alternatives. I came across Fdroid - actually the store I've searched for. The only problem I've faced is there are no proprietary apps. I try to reject using of proprietary software as much as possible, but many of my friends use proprietary chat apps like WhatsApp, Viber etc.
So I've searched a solution to get this proprietary apps without much tricks...just keep it simple. I came across Aptoid - another android store, but I didn't liked the idea behind very well - you can find lots cracked apps etc. and that is not what I am looking for. Second point is - all apps are outdated - so you are missing the new version of the apps and their security and performance fixes. It didn't suited my needs so I decided to purge Aptoide.
So... after a bit of research I founded another two solutions:
APKmirror - it is a website - there is no app for it. So If you want to use it you have to go to the website and download and install .apk manually (you also need to enable Untrusted Sources in your security settings). The website has very nice interface and it looks exactly as a normal appstore. I've bookmarked it and placed it on my homescreen - so it is usable - no pain in the *** at all. The packages seems to be "trusted" as the packet signature is checked with the one of the original developer. All apps are updated - you can even download beta versions (before they hit PlayStore) and if it goes wrong... you can easily downgrade to previous verions - very nice feature. This site is related to Android Police - as it is a good source in my opinion, I think the packages there are trust-able. Is there anyone who has additional info about APKmirror?
APKpure - the second solution I came across. I wasn't able to find any additional information about this source or any review so I really have no idea who is standing behind this project. Anyway... I downloaded several apps and I checked the app signature and it seems fine - every app I checked matched the original signature of the developer. There are also "Trusted" marks same as APKmirror. All of the apps are updated. It looks pretty much like APKmirror - there is no app, just website. You can easily update your applications too so it suit all my needs. Anyway... I would like to get some additional information about it... it seems to me like mirror of PlayStore but... anyone who knows more maybe?
Apkpure has a app that you can download. Just have to watch certain apps such as play games will update to the 038 version when I am completely updated to the 030 version in the play store. Apkmirror describes this on their website when you download certain apps. Just though you should know about the app.
One thing I miss Fromm the Google play store is Google games for backup of games data and achievements. When cyanogen finishes partnership with the social gaming network, play games or whatever it's called, I'll hopefully be able to get away from the Google play store. Course devs would have to enable those servers for achievements etc, which is a long shot. Till then helium is my best friend I guess.

I have a EVA-AL00 arriving tomorrow...what do I need to know?

Ok, so I bought a P9 ( EVA-AL00 ) since I've always been a fan of Leica products, and I'm a hobbyist photographer. First off, I currently use an iPhone 5s for the last 2 months, and before that was using a OnePlus One, and before that an iPhone 5c and Blackberry Passport, so I've had a variety ogf phones over the last 2 years. I'm not into hacking, or unlocking or locking bootloaders and that type of thing, which is why I generally like Apple products, as they just seem to work out of the box. I'm leaving my 5s because the screen is too small, and I like what the P9 offers for the money, at a cheaper price point than an iPhone 6s. And the Leica optics.
So, having said that, what do I need to know once I get the phone tomorrow? Any critical or important tips or tricks? Again, I'm not into anything complicated when it comes to phones like rooting, etc... I'm in Canada and my Carrier is Bell. My ANdroid experience has been with the OnePlus One I used for a while, and I was generally pleased with it.
Thanks
Ok, so phone arrived. I made a mistake. It's a EVA-DL00.
It's running EVA-DL00C17B163, and I'm currently updating to 168. This is a CHinese version of the phone, from my understanding. I'm using it in English, but some things are still in Chinese. Is there any way to to flash with other software to make it all English?

Welcome to the club
I recently bought the EVA-L10 (Chinese Dual-Sim, "premium" version, 4G/64G) while in Shanghai, and I have the same "problem" as you.
Basically since Google is not available in China, the phones sold in China don't come with Google Android framework, they use a "non-google Android", based of the official Android.
So, to your question, will it be possible to flash another firmware over your phones firmware? I say Yes, however at the same time I'm lying, because I'm also looking for this firmware for my phone, but if someone posts a EVA-L29 Firmware somewhere on the Interweb, I'm most certain this firmware will work on my phone and should also work on yours (might require bootloader unlock and root, but so what..).
But the phone is, chinese apps or not, awesome
/S
You can install Google stuff. Just download the Google Play store from the Huawei store, and then have at 'er installing all the normal Google Play apps that you want. That's what I'm currently doing. I just want to get rid of all the Chinese stuff on the phone. ALso, switch the keyboard to the regular Android one in the settings.

Hi!
Of course, but there are still some applications that are "System Applications" that you cant get rid of, like HiCare, HiApp, .. etc. and if you are in a country using special characters like ü or åäö, these are not rendered correct in the Mail app (shows up as chinese chars).

Have you checked out the contacts yet, .. did you manage to sync contacts from your Google account? Because my contacts from google dont show up in the Huawei built in "Contacts" App (which is also used by the dialer). Only contacts from Skype, LinkedIn, WeChat etc. are shown.

Hi,
I also bought a P9 ( EVA-AL00 ) last June, and currently i'm having an issue.
Usually i don't have games on my phone, or almost none, but some days ago, i wanted to install Heartstone on my P9. When downloading , at about 85%, sometimes 9x% (once it reached 100%) suddently it pops out from Google Play, and don't install the game. I tried also with other games and it happens the same. It doesn't happens with every game, i tested sucessfully with Stack and Sokoban
I have plenty of free space on phone and several applications installed (no Google Play issue, i think).
After i received the phone, i download the Google services/play store APK without issues. I deactivated the chinese bloatware, with no issues. Once Google Play installed, i downloaded all other Google Apps i use and others without issues...well there is an issue i had with RT app. It installed ok, but sometimes when i want to open it, i have to try several times to open it... I click on icon but closes.
Have someone here with EVA-AL00 having this issue also?
Thanks!

I just bought the non-carrier specific 3G / 32G Chinese version (EVA AL00) P9 when I was in Guangzhou last week and had to do the following after coming back home to get it to work with google and sync with two google accounts.
1. Install Google Play Store from HiApp and sign in with first google account.
2. Make sure to give Google Play Store permission to access storage, otherwise large apps won't install.
3. Download apk of Google Contacts Sync from APKMirror
4. Download apk of Google Calendar Sync from APKMirror
5. Use the browser on the phone to download these two apk files and follow the instruction on the phone to install them.
Sorry I'm not allowed to post outside links yet, however google search keywords like Google Contacts Sync APK will turn up the download links.
6. Since the phone still did not allow me to add a second google account in Settings -> Accounts -> Add Account, I had to install Youtube and use the Add Account in Youtube to add a second google account.
After these steps, I was able to sync contacts and calendar events with both google accounts and install apps from Play Store.
Hi, I too recently purchased a Huawei P9 EVA- AL00 , my issue is that I cannot source the Drivers for this model and I have searched the web on several occasions and several web sites? I am trying to unblock the bootloader so I can change over to English version. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

ZTE Axon M 128GB Chinese Edition Oreo Update removes Google functionality

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

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?

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.
