[Q] Google Play does not recognize apps - Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a question about the Google Play Store. I rooted, and thereafter installed the Google Play Store using the following method:

After installing the Google Play Store, I used the "Market Helper" app to get the Play Store to allow all apps, using the following method:
http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-trick-google-play-store-into-allowing-all-apps/
Initially, the Google Play Store seemed to allow all apps, as I was able to install apps such as Slingplayer and HBO Go directly from the Play Store.
I thereafter installed some Google TV apps (You Tube via the Play Store, Viki via sideload method), and afterwards the Google Play Store no longer allows all apps (not sure if the Google TV apps were the cause).
I attempted to clear cache/data the Google Play Store and Play Services apps, uninstall those apps and reinstall the 4 Google Play apps, as well as started from step 1 in the first link above.
The Google Play Store still doesn't allow all the apps as it did immediately after I first installed the Play Store.
If anyone can advise on how to get the Play Store to allow all apps again, I would appreciate it. Thank you.
EDIT: I was only able to clear the cache/data for the Play Store and Play Services apps, but could not find the other 2 google apks on the Fire TV to clear them, if anyone knows how to clear the cache and data for all 4 apps, please let me know so I can try that also. Thanks.

play store accounts

is there any way i can switch accounts on play store in fire tv?
can any one at all shed some light
I'm assuming you are rooting and have sideloaded the Google Play store. I would think you could clear Data / Cache for the Play Store app. Should then be like launching it for the first time allowing you to use a different account.
tried that but the google services app wont delete its data so play store keep pre populating to my default address, any ideas?
Yes, I have tried that previously and I have failed. Your only option is to uninstall/reinstall google play AFAIK.

Google Play Store Launches, but Music Hangs

Got my device rooted, and I installed all of the google app services. I am able to launch the play store, but when I try to launch the google play music, it just sits at the orange logo screen and hangs. I am logged in on my google account on the play store.
Anyone have any advice?
I had the same issues with Google Music (as a sideload using Apps2Fire on my Android phone).
BTW, how did you get Google Play? I tried to install the APKs for a Fire pad/ Fire phone. Didn't work.
Do you have a link to the instruction set?.....

Play Store crash only when making a purchase.

I've been running the custom Marshmallow ROM on my Tab S for about a year and loved it, but now everytime I make a purchase on the play store I get "Unfortunately Goole play store has stopped". I can dowload free apps and update everything fine but whenever I try to make a purchase the play store crashes. Does anyone have an idea of what I can do?
I have already tried clearing cache and data for the play store and play services, removed my google account, reflashed GAPPS, installing the play store as a system app, and set up a lock screen security. Nothing has worked so far.

Fire TV 3 Google play services stops terrarium tv from working

I currently have a Fire TV 3 and was trying to load a new app which required Google play services. After installing the google play store and services the app started working. However Terrarium TV stopped working. Deleted the Play Store App and still Terrarium failed. I went into the filemanager and then deleted the google play services and Terrarium started working again
My questions are -
1) Is there a workaround where I can have Google play services and terrarium work ??
2) I there away of not deleting the Google play Services file - but just disable it - I could not see the play services registered as an app to disable .(which is why I went into Filemanager to delete the file
Any help would be appreciated - as I do not want to have 2 another seperate box just for this one app

Play store works, but some apps won't open and games won't connect to google account

Hello, hoping someone has a recommendation:
I have a new latest generation Kindle Fire 8 Plus (9th?).
I did not root it, I just installed the 4 .apks needed to add the Google play store.
The installation went smoothly and I am logged into my Google account in the Play store, and I have used it to install several apps. However I'm running into two issues:
1) Google Chat downloads and says it's installed, but still not open. (Google chat work around is to use it through the gmail app-this works fine).
2) A game called Rise of Cultures works but to synchronize with game progress on other devices, requires to "Connect with Google Play". Every time I try to connect it, it says "account connect failed, try to connect at a later time."
Any ideas? Would rooting help? I didn't use the Kindle Toolbox because I only wanted the Google play store while retaining the Amazon skin since the primary use for this devices is to browse and buy Kindle books. Other Google apps seem to be able to sign into my Google account without any problems...
Any tips are appreciated!
Have you tried to wipe the application data with which there are problems?
Thanks, that was a good suggestion but it didn't work, still same issue.
If it is possible uninstall the google store and services (or restore to the factory version) and install older versions of the google store and services from apkmirror.
