No netflix in play store, play store says "Device is not certified" - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

Is there an updated guide to flashing the N6?

There's one main guide by xBeerdroiDx, but it is outdated and you can't find the download for the SDK that he's referring to, so the guide comes to an abrupt halt right at the beginning. Is anyone aware of an updated guide? Or at least an updated guide to the SDK download part? I'm fairly certain the rest of the guide will work the same, but this part needs updating.

Got it, thank you. I've now got TWRP installed, making my nan backup now and expect to be on Lineage with Magisk shortly. I do appreciate it.
edit: Lineage flashed, francos kernel flashed, latest radio and bootloader flashed. Everything is up and running. Only problem is Safetynet is still being triggered, even without root. Currently trying to figure this out.
edit2: For some reason flashing Magisk and obtaining root, and then using Magisk Hide fixed my safetynet issues... for the most part. I say "for some reason" because Franco should've hid my unlocked bootloader, so there should've been no reason for Magisk to fix anything with safetynet. And secondly, I say "for the most part" because although Androidpay now passes the safetynet flag and lets me register a credit card (I haven't tried actually using it yet though), Netflix still doesn't show up on the Play Store. I tried clearing the app data a few times. It's been hours and it hasn't changed. Quite strange. Otherwise, I'm very happy with my new device.
edit3: So after about 8 hours, Netflix is now showing up on the Play Store once again. So Magisk hide + clearing Play Store app data + waiting a few hours is how I fixed it. Others said the same thing about it taking some time, but they said it should only take a few minutes. I guess it can take longer in some cases. Anyways, it's working and I'm a happy rooted camper.

Issues with Netflix are due to a new feature Google set up which allows a developer to hide their app in the Play Store from devices that don't adhere to the Google baseline. So, this is not a SafetyNet issue. There is an article about it on the XDA Portal.

I'm aware of the issue, and it is about Safetynet. Netflix and other apps like PoGo can avoid being shown on the Play Store to devices that do not pass Safetynet.
Anyways I got it to work. About 8 hours after passing Safetynet, it finally showed back up on the Play Store. So I'm fairly certain it's Safetynet. I just made sure Magisk said it passed, cleared app data for the Play Store and about 8 hours after it showed up. I was checking periodically and it definitely took at least a few hours.
We were thinking along the same lines. The difference? You were coming at it from a device point of view while I looked at it from the developer's end. This is the portal article I was talking about.

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.

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.

Fire OS 6..3.x and play store (latest Fire HD 8)

Hi Guys,
Just unpacked my new fire hd8.
Did anyone already successfully install the play store on this Android 7 based device?
Would it work to simply try fetching the usual files from Nugat and install them?
Thanks for your help

Google Play services 14.3.66 64bit nodpi
Google Play store 11.9.14-all
After starting Google Play the Fire insisted on installing nee Google Play services. I let it do it's job.
So far it worked. I can install apps.
I'm getting it on Saturday. How is it performing?

Quite ok, much faster than the older Fire 7 I had, and gave up on.
It is very usable. Downloaded quite a few apps now, and most perform well.
Only my local newspaper app still causes issue when logging in, but this app isn't working well in real live too..

Quick update. Realised that I was sloppy on the OS version: After the initial update it's 6.3.0.1. A reasonably clean Android 7.something
So far pretty much everything seems to work as wished. I usually install apps from the fire store if available, and then from play if I don't have the choice.
I have now Chrome, hangouts, hangouts meet, both with two accounts (enterprise and personal). Goole Play Music, Canon Camera Remote (Fuji is on the fire store) etc running.
Also my microsoft account works well, no issues with onedrive etc... For Skype I'm using the Kindle version.
One note: don't forget to enable the lock screen if you want to add a google enterprise account. Otherwise it will simply fail to log on, without a direct useful error message!
So I got my new Tablet yesterday, loaded it up today with the exact versions you list above, it lets me log in, but then kicks me out of the play store and asks me to log in again... Hope this isn't anything to do with 2FA or anything, but I can't figure out how to stay logged in and install apps...
Edit: Yeah, it lets me login, accept the terms, then goes right back to Checking info... Which leads to the login page...
Thought I had it with a factory reset, got a few apps installed, but now won't stay logged in again...
Google Play services won't run unless you update Google Play services
Has anyone run into this on the newest version of the Fire HD 8? I go to update Google Play services and it says it is 'installing' forever (well... it hasn't stopped yet at least... I've forced stopped it a few times, and tried again, but nothing) I've tried the most up to date guide on here (October 4th 2018) and this still sits here waiting on installing services... which stuff like Google Play Books needs... I mostly want GPB because I store a lot of books on Google, and this is a great little reading device.

Did you check which versions are now on your tablet?
Did you try to do an update of all apps on the Amazon Store first, and then on the Google play store? Make sure you are not "updating" any apps that are originally from the Amazon store, like Alexa (causing issues).
Can you log into your google account from the silk webbrowser?
Everything works pretty well on my tablet. I only had to download the Amazon Alexa app again from the Amazon store, after the play store had "updated" the original version, which caused it to crash.
Same issue continuous login loop

All versions are the following:

Google Play services 14.3.66 64bit nodpi (040400-213742215)
Google Play store 11.9.14-all 214884739
I have dual factor authentication on my Google account which requires me saying yes to an authorization prompt on my phone.
That seems to work though because after that I am prompted in the Google Play app with terms of service. When I accept them, it goes back to the login prompt, requiring me to enter my credentials again. This loop didn't end even after five attempts.

Just checked the Silk Browser and Amazon updates, same problem remains. Checked multiple times that I've got the right versions for this tablet, same result.

If you need something now return it and look elsewhere. Otherwise look for a workaround in the coming weeks. This doesn't feel like a showstopper issue.

Sorry to hear. Looks like something is behaving differently on your Fire.
You could try a complete reset and do it all over again if you are feeling adventurous.. Though I have heard that doing the same thing all over again and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity
I do not 2FA on my google account, so that could have triggered it.
btw.: Did you also have the message about updating google play service after google play store the first time? Apparently my google play services framework still seems to have the same version number... Just looking for things that went differently on your setup.
Returning sounds like a good plan if an android tablet is what you really want.
According to this article, Google apps are not supposed to work on the newest Amazon devices. It also mentions something called "Yalp Store" which might be interesting.
https://android.gadgethacks.com/new...-amazon-no-more-android-apps-fire-os-0183744/
Also: I am not sure if the Launcher Hijack apk v.3 is working on the new Fire 8, but I found a new launcher called "Flick Launcher" which allows you to set a custom action for the home button. Set the home button to open Flick Launcher (open itself), and it will go to home screen. It will require the pro version which is $2.50. I don't have a Fire 8 8th gen to test it on, but it does work on my Fire 7 7th gen, and my Moto E Play. It's very slow getting to the home screen on the Fire 7, which has Lollipop, but it's a lot faster on my phone, which has Oreo, so it might be faster on Nougat. I am not sure if this is a definite solution, but it could be.

Disney+

I'm not able to install Disney+ either from the Play Store (Device not compatible), nor from downloading the apk. I'm curious if this is because I'm running a GSI ROM or if anyone else isn't able to install it on stock either. I checked a Samsung forum and some people are saying that they're unable to get it on some newer phones like the Note10.
Not working for me either
I have it on my RAZER PHONE 2 and it works
You're not able to install it because your device is not certified. You can see that status under the Play Store settings.
I got it to work only by finding the disney + apk, then using magisk hide. But it is indeed working and pretty well. Not sure why it will not work out of the box.

[QUESTION] SafetyNet passed and device certified, but no Netflix on Play Store

Basically what the title says. I know is not a big deal not having Netflix, Mario Run or Mario Kart (maybe more, those are the ones I use) on Play Store, but it is useful for auto updates.
AFAIK this happens when Play Store is not certified or detecting unlocked bootloader. Now, the thing is, I have everything hidden in Magisk, SafetyNet pass on both Magisk and this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scottyab.safetynet.sample
And weirdly enough, they seem to show up from time to time. How exactly does this work? Is it a play store detection thing, or is it some kind of flag on google's database? Because from the web, the apps shows as "not compatible" with my phone (when they don't appear on the phone, when they appear they are compatible on the web as well).
Sometimes I clear the data of play store and play services, but it doesn't seem to work, or seems to work randomly. I also tried clearing google services framework data, and it helped a couple of times, although I don't do that know, it mess up with apps and I learned that the hard way hehe
I'm just trying to figure out the google handling of this, and maybe a permanent solution from there.
I have a Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro with MIUI 12 (xiaomi.eu), Magisk and Xposed (phone's fingerprint is faked from an untouched phone and I can pass all the tests and use GPay, have Widevine L1... so all seems ok execpt for the apps things, which is beginning to bug me.
Thanks in advance.
I managed to get the apps showing on the store by doing these steps:
-Disabling internet connection on the phone
-Wiping play store and play services and rebooting
-Logging out from the device through the google security panel website
-Waiting 30min to 1h.
-Enabling internet again.
Then the apps were compatible again, as I can see on the play store web (not the app).
BUT, after 24h hours, or a bit less actually, they AGAIN appear as NOT COMPATIBLE on the play store web.
I'm trying to figure out why this may happen. Any clues? Thanks!

Hi, not sure if this answer will solve your problem, I'll post anyway.
I needed an app available only in US on time. So I got a VPN and connected it. But the app still wasn't available. So I force closed the app and cleared the data (only for the play store) and it worked perfectly.
I know you already cleared data. But this time, try those steps, maybe it'll work:
1- Enable Magisk Hide
2- Force Close Play Store
3- Clear only the Play Store Data
4- Launch the Play Store and see if it worked
Hope this will help.
Have a good day
Thanks for the answer, but I think the problem is a bit more complex than that. Yesterday I re-did all my steps again and I got this:
This time I have not turned off my phone since then, and the "compatibility" is maintained. I will try to stay another 24h with my phone on, then I will turn it off on tuesday night and see what happens.
Also, I think this post would be more useful in the Magisk thread, maybe? Could an admin move it there?
Thanks!

The "incompatible with your device" message is only shown if you open Google Play Store in PC's browser., not if you run Google Play Store on phone: there an incompatible app simply isn't listed.
Your issue has nothing to do with fact that Magisk is installed on your phone.
Download APK from another market. Open it with 7zip or any other unpacker. Look inside extracted file Manifest.xml for any app's restrictions.

Then where's the issue? Netflix is obviously compatible, is not a "real" incompatibility. Seems to me that google play store or services detect something on the phone then tell google servers to flag those apps as incompatible, therefore they are NOT shown on the phone and listed as "incompatible" on the web.
What I'm trying to do is to prevent this, prevent the phone from detecting whatever it is detecting and prevent my phone services to tell to google services/servers/database/whatever.
Because I can assure you, before rooting/Magisk this did NOT happen. So no, this is not a "real" incompatibility issue. Actually, as you can see on my screenshot, it IS compatible right now xD Who knows how many hours will this time last...
@eXtremeDevil
If your statement "SafetyNet passed and device certified" - what indicates Magisk gets not detected - is actually still true then turn on your mind.
That's the kind of help I'm asking here, AGAIN, my device is FULLY compatible with Netflix or Mario Run. I installed them through Play Store with no issues and I can run them with no issues. BUT for some reason, even passing SafetyNet and being the device certified, sometimes google detects something that makes those apps incompatible, and no, is it not the hardware or the ROM, is a security related issue, only I don't know which one.
OK, so today after 3 or for days without issues (and without rebooting) I rebooted the phone and the problem went back. I wiped both play store and play services data, rebooted three times and so far so good. Let's see what happens.
Could any forum moderators move this thread to the Magisk subforum?
Thanks.

Nice to see it worked
(I'll ask the mods for the thread to be moved, if you wanna do that yourself next time just report your thread and select "thread moving")

Thanks for the moving trick, I didn't know that
Ask for the problem, is not actually fixed, I still lose those apps from time to time, and I'm still looking for a cause and for a definitive solution
It happened again after 2 or 3 reboots. I suspect the culprit is EdXposed or one of its modules. What I can't understand is why my other phone doesn't have that issue, or my girlfriends phone, that actually has the original Xposed...
I was seeing a similar issue. Without Magisk installed I was able to download Netflix from the Play store without issue. After Magisk installed and pass CTS, going back to play store Netflix app page showed red error msg, "This app isn't compatible with your device anymore. Contact the developers for more info." Force stop Play Store, clearing cache/storage resolved issue.
Curious but did you try setting the Magisk Manager option to hide and rename the manager package? Also if you have either ed/xposed, did you check if installing SudoHide module and hiding Magisk Manager from Play Store turns out different results? Doing the latter will remove Play Store (or any app you hide from Magisk through SudoHide for that matter) from the Magisk hide app list, something to keep in mind in case you need magisk hide enabled for play store, but I'm assuming you don't need to since you tried that already to no avail. Otherwise I'm curious to know if either, both, or neither solves this issue.

Yes, that seemst to work. I think I also need to clean Play Services app as well.

Tried that, didn't work. And yes, I have the manager renamed to something random.
SafetyNet does not pass 100% of the time, the clear data works but only for a while, I guess there's nothing to be done here...
