Same here...
I have the same issue running the current beta 5.8.27. Only Google apps are affected. Very strange....

Im having the same problem on miui 5.9.17

Same here

I have denied access to location for many apps, almost all that were asking (focusing on better battery life), maybe that could be the reason
Does anyone have had the same issue?

Now I have not had any major GPS issues but sometimes when I quit my Google Maps app it looses GPS signal and it does not regain it until I re-load the app from fresh

Are you on Miui 7 developer ROM?

We should probably reflash gapps after each update, will do that after next and tell

Yes, the china version 5.9.17

Hi,
I found myself in the same situation. Brand new Mi4C, latest stable firmware and Google Maps is not even activating GPS (toolbar symbol missing). Other apps like OruxMaps or GPSTest worked immediately.
I found the solution here:
http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=redirect&goto=findpost&ptid=182587&pid=3438377
Turns out that while Google Maps may have enough permissions, the Google Play Services and Google Services Framework also need permission to "Get location info".
So, open MIUIs Security app and check the permissions of those three apps.
For me, the Google Play Services had a red cross (deny) for the get location info permission.
After changing it and restarting Google Apps, the location icon immediately appeared in the toolbar and Maps showed my location.
I'm not sure where the red cross came from. Maybe - during installation - it requested the location and I hit deny because why would it need it..
Anyway, hope this helps.

It still doesn't work for me

I too am experiencing the same issues, not with one, but have tried two brand new Redmi Note3 mobiles (Amazon was good enough to replace my first mobile even when my replacement/refund window was almost over). But both sets have same problem (Again Amazon is kind enough to refund my money, but I really wanted to keep this set if only it worked ok).
Many apps are able to find GPS location, but Google Plus, Mi Browser and some other less known apps are not able to find GPS available to them (even all permissions are fully ok with them).
I even contacted Xiaomi on this, but what they all asked me was to visit their service center which is some 225 KMs away from me (whole Punjab state has only 1 or 2 Xiaomi Service Centers).
Check the following screen shots showing the permissions (as instructed by Xiaomi) and also video links which I've recorded, one for faulty RMN3 and other for the same app on Micromax (this shows how G+ location is expected to work if there was no fault).
Pls find the youtube video links in the end.

[Q] Google Wallet: Device Not Ready

I've seen threads on this issue for other devices, but none in the HTC One section so thought I might try and see if anyone here can help.
I got my HTC One on Friday and flashed CM 10.1 once the phone was activated. Everything is working fine, except Google Wallet keeps saying the device is not ready.

}
Things I've tried:
1. Force stop of NFC Service and Google Wallet, clear cache/data on both, purchasing app on play store, then rebooting.
2. The Xposed Module for Google Wallet
3. Waiting 24 hours (apparently it can sometimes take 24 hours for SIM cards to be fully activated, but I can make/receive calls, get data, etc so that shouldn't be an issue)
4. Editing build.prop to change device name
5. Installing previous versions of Wallet
6. Crossing my fingers and praying to the Google Gods. Then rebooting.
Does anyone know what might be causing this or how to fix it? I'm going to try wiping the phone and then re-flashing CM, but am keeping that as a last resort.

This was happening to my sisters phone. I knew from the beginning she needed to update the google play services. No Google apps will run or be sluggish. She hated her phone. We couldn't update through WiFi or LTE eventually we went to a t mobile store only for the phone to start working property shortly after. Turns out my WiFi was spotty aswell as LTE in my area. If you can't update Google play services try a different area. After updating services phone was back to normal and she is loving MM

my internet connection is fine and updates go through fine after hte initial issue.
Originally, it kept saying it cant download google play services, but everything else was doing fine. instead of googling the error i disabled google play services and thus uninstalled all its current updates, then restarted phone and re-enabled it and tried again. it downloaded and updated (it no longer shows an "update" button when i look at it in google play) but it still throws the error in my OP every time I look at it.
anyone have any other thoughts? this error is driving me nuts.
As stated before, the download goes through fine, and just to humor the above poster I have tried other locations and it's the same thing all over again.
The problem isn't i cant update, the problem is i -do- update, but the error continues to come through as if I have not updated. I am currently on Version 8.7.03 (2645110-240) for google play services but the error keeps popping up
Clear Cache on Google Play Services. If that doesn't work, clear Data too. Then let it update again if needed. You really shouldn't disable this in the first place.

i've already tried clearing cache/data and re-updated, didn't make a difference. i only disabled it because thats the only way i knew to uninstall updates, it was immidiately re-enabled.

Other app GPS for Android Auto

I currently use Waze on Android Auto. I do not like Google Maps. Is there any other GPS App that works on Android Auto? Example: TomTom
No..
really
very useful and helpful thread
thanks
Google doesn't allow other offline GPS apps on android auto.
There is a lot of information about this issue.
It seems that Google wants to back their own ****y Google maps and collect/mine all information possible, probably for their autonomous car project.
Apple was in the same position but they have finally allowed sygic in carplay.
Google is being sued in Italy for monopoly and banning other apps from android auto.
We all hope that sygic and tomtom are soon allowed, but Google hoy their own plans which care nothing about users.

You do know that Google owns Waze, right? Its just a different UI on the same product.

I did not know, thank you. I wonder what the reasoning is for 2 different map programs is? One is clearly light years above the other in the user interface.
Hello
I have tested on carplay and sygic work beautiful, no data connection, no extra heat on my 6s iphone. Unfortunately i use everyday an android phone, who not allows using offline navigation in AA. Shame!!!
I have asked some people around about modify or adapt some navigation apk to be added in AA. The answer was no. Application that work in AA are signed by google, white listed in PlayServices and so on... No alternatives. That`s freedom of choice; choice of developer.
Now that android auto has a new ui, i have an idea to somehow use other gps software..
In new ui, android auto is starting in waze screen (if not to all, it is probably a settings choise for this).
So, if we use aa mirroring app, perhaps if we rename android auto mirroring app to waze app (inside the code the Internal name of aa mirroring) then perhaps aa mirroring will auto start, so if we have another gps app running it will show instead of waze..
I haven't try it yet, if i do i will post if the idea does work.
I just had the idea and wanted to share..
I don't know if anyone understand my idea. English is not my native language. I can't describe it better..
Hi, have you found a solution to have other gps in android auto without going through aa mirror ?

Troll. Way off topic for an Android Auto forum. Do you have anything constructive to add?
It was some discussion about TomTom Navigation maybe we can use in carplay. But until now no new information.
Trimis de pe al meu SM-G975F folosind Tapatalk
Yup, I have Waze and TomTom working - although every time I click on an address using acalendar+ waze tells me it can't find the address... and I have no idea how to turn down the waze volume either
Hello I work in android auto Google.
Tom tom amigo and sygic.

I've been going crazy for months but it doesn't work for me.
I also tried to install google maps & services via ourplay from vivo store (ourplay creates a sandbox), in which version of map the timeline is active but does not record my movements.
ive upgeaded to Ocean by OTA
Forget the sandbox. You may be aware that it is highly unlikely that one phone has a timeline and the other doesn't and the hardware or the system is the cause.
The more probable cause is your google account or settings. Therefore, I advise you to first check if your device is GPlay certified in settings. If not, you should achieve it by adjusting your google account (on a computer) or reset the phone.
Another useful approach is checking the timeline on other phone (or tablet). You may borrow one if you don't have it. If hte timeline works, the problem lies in your phone, otherwise in the google settings.
It doesn't work for me. Device side problem as it works on other android tablet.

Did you check if you're device is google play certified? If yes, check settings and permissions. If it doesn't help, try to factory reset the phone and set everything from scratch.
I don't have the button for the verification from the play store, but only an application verification
But you do see "device is certified" under the Google Play - Settings - About?
I can't turn on location history either. It just has in Italics "Location History is off"
Can't select any toggle to turn it on.
In play store it shows my Device is certified.
History works fine on my other devices.
Live View for walking directions is also always greyed out on my Vivo for some reason.

Inspecting the issue thoroughly, I found that the location history actually doesn't work. The reason that I was mistaken is the fact that I use a dedicated car dongle in order to have Android Auto. And all time history I have has been plotted with this device. Last month I was travelling and got zero timeline.
I tried to enable it and totally failed. As it can be seen from the attached picture, my phone is not and can't be included in the location history.
I searched the web and found the probable reason. Chinese Vivo doesn't have full Google framework, only basic. Hence, it can't communicate with Google servers in full. That's why we can't make backup as well.
Actually, I don't miss the location history on the phone that much. But if someone is interested, there is an instruction to enable it here:
[FIX] [All Amazon tablets] Enable/Fix Google Location Services [MARCH 2019]
****UPDATE MARCH 7, 2019:**** If the guide below doesn't work for you, see additional instructions at the end. This seems to be a huge problem for many users...location services not working when the Google Play store is installed. I have found a...
forum.xda-developers.com
Of course, it is for a rooted device. But there is a slight chance enabling it without the root. The most important is getting the full Google service framework to the phone.
Otherwise, I guess, we are out of luck.
The non complete framework is the reason why many google features don't work:
- android auto;
- location history;
- google backup;
- "OK Google" voice activation.
Thanks for the explanations on the problem.
I tried to download the apk files.
Already the first on the list does not install due to a security exception.
I also tried to download the latest versions but I have the same error.
Any solution without Root?

Question Google play store on chinese rom

How can I install the play store on the Chinese rom? I've tried downloading it from APK mirror and it says "Couldn't sign in There was a problem communicating with Google servers. Try again later." I've tried clearing the cache and no help.
Solved! "Google basic services" has to be enabled. It's found in the drop down menu within apps management in settings.
Just install it from the ZUI Store app on the tablet. You might need to use a phone camera to help translate..

I just flashed the stock chinese rom from the global rom. I actually figured it out. There's a setting in the app management tab in the settings where you have to enable google services. I had installed play services, google play store, chrome, etc... Factory reset a few times too. But I was poking around the app management and was looking at system apps to see if something was disabled that I needed and saw "google basic services" as an option and I was able to turn that on, and everything works now. So I hope if anyone else has that issue they come across this thread.

Toggling this on and off seemed to fix an issue for me where I couldn't push the "Sign In" button to log into Google Services on the first Play Store run.

It was late at night, I meant to say Amazon Prime. I assume it works but I thought I read on some Chinese roms that Netflix works but Prime Video doesn't. Hopefully I'm wrong, it's annoying if a device has Widevine L1 but some apps still don't work.
