So I rooted my Zenfone 5 and used Titanium Backup to manage system apps and then I used the option to convert the updated version of some system apps to rom. When I did that Google Play services and Play Store started crashing. I can't find a way to get it back to normal since I didn't back it up so I tried restoring stock rom but I couldn't install TWRP recovery, it says it's signed or secured, something like that.
Help please :crying:
PS: Zenfone 5 doesn't have a forum so I figure this was the best place to post it.
EDIT: So the problem is: I can't unlock bootloader

Hi,
since I've rooted my phone and went for DeFrost/OpenDesire I'm unable to download any apps from the market. I've set the installation source to internal memory. I've tried to re-install the ROM, cleaning, wiping data/cache and basically everything around that. I'm even unable to download Apps with the original 2.2 unrooted STOCK rom now.
Any ideas?
What I did so far:
- Wiping the phone
- Formating the SD card
- Basically everything to default
- Installed FroYo 2.2.1 Pre-Rooted
And still I cant download apps from the market.
Please I am begging for ideas
try clearing market's data in "application" section of "settings"
does your problem include free apps? or paid only?
Hi,
did that.
Applies for paid and free apps
Apps Install Problem
Hi,
I've got kinda the same problem.
Got root phone with custom ROM (Neophyte) and download apps form market is fine but after they don't install and I still have the installing process running but nothings happens.
I've try to change ROM but in Cyamogen I don't even see the Android Market.
I have partitioned the SD card with Rom Manager to get APP2SD but I d'ont know if this is working. How to check?
Someone can help? Which ROM should I use to test if the market is Ok?
Can I put a HTC rom into my rooted phone?
I do have the feeling that my phone is not allowed to place the files somewhere it would need to. Does anyone know where files from the market are being placed when the download starts?
Update:
I found a solution. I need to disable the SD card and them I'm able to download files again. So I guess its some kind of app2sd problem?
And with defrost its not working anylonger.
GOD DAMNIT. This is driving me crazy
So even with a ext3 partition I'm unable to download these Apps. I've tried repair mode from ROM manager and he successful fixed everything - without a result.
If anyone has an idea please tell me. I'm unable to use my phone this way and I don't have any idea at this point. I just revoked everything going back to an unrooted HTC Desire EU 2.2 rom.
Its still not working. I dont get this.
SD card was formated, Phone was wiped - its in the same state as yesterday before I rooted it. So how the heck is it not working anymore?! Cant be its kinda hardware bricked or something ... ffs
PLEASE
I have the same problem. After creating the partion in rom manager I am unable to DOWNLOAD apps for the market but I can still install apk's from the memory card.
SOLUTION!!!
The solution is quite simple actually. Tried it on HTC Tattoo
Go to Settings>Applications>Managae Applications>Market and uninstall all the updates for Market and clear cache. Try Downloading Apps from Market.
Cheers!

Unable to download Apps on Market after I unlocked my Tmobile Vibrant
I'm also having the same problem after I unlocked my Tmobile vibrant.
If i reset my phone and go to apps market, Im able to download fine, but after closing apps market and opening it again and try downloading any apps, nothing happens. It says its "starting download" but nothing happens. It seems to be stuck at that "starting download" process. But if I reset my phone and go back to the Apps market and try downloading apps and everything will work temporary.
I tried going into settings---->applications----> manage applications----> clear cache---->reboot
Also tried going to Download Manager-Clear Data----Reboot
Also tried uninstalling updates for Apps Market.
Nothing helps.
Please help if you find a way to fix this problem.
Phone-SGH-T959
Firmware- 2.1-update1
Baseband Version- JI6
so i just ordered my gnex and had some questions about the auto app install process once the phone is first booted and my google account is logged in.
is there any way to stop the process altogether or kill the installs other than to go into the play store and start manually cancelling every app install?
i've got a bunch of apps installed on my current device that while i do want them on my gnex, many are older versions than what is current in the play store that i'd like to keep for one reason or another. i'd prefer to not have to allow all the updated apps to install and manually delete them then go back and install the older versions from my ti backups. yes i know i'll have to do that anyway but avoiding the initial auto install and manual deletion step would be ideal.
i guess my only other option would be to use the updated play store option of deleting apps from the webpage and just delete them from my current device prior to booting up/signing in to my gnex. i'm planning on wiping this device anyway so i guess that wouldn't be a huge deal, it just seems like google giving us an option to auto install or not would be best.
am i SOL on this? i've searched around and it doesn't look like i have any other choices but figured i'd ask.
Recently tried to flash a blacked out version of Google Play Store, used TWRP, after reboot, i opened up the play store and it closed on me. I deleted the blacked out version, install play store again and still closes on me. I googled the "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped" error, tried all the suggestions but to no avail, cleared data, cache, rebooted into recovery, cleared cache. The store will open up, but as soon as i hit update on any of my apps, it closes. Did i trigger something in my phone when i tried to flash the backout version of the play store? I even installed from a backup in Titanium and it also closes after i try to update any apps. I do have a nandroid backup but dont want to resort to that just yet. Thanking you in advance for any help in this matter. HTC M8 rooted

Now is the time to use the nandroid backup.. or titanium backup user apps and reflash. This is the reason you make nandroid backups so you don't have to waste hours trying to fix silly issues like this. I make one every day and save it to the PC So I can always restore without worrying about losing a new app or setting.

Restored nan backup and updating all my apps from the play store, thanks for your response, I still wish I knew what could have caused this problem. This backup is four days old so I have lots to update and install. Again, many thanks
Hello everyone,
I'm either new in this forum and noob with android.
Yesterday i made the terrible choice to tap on the cyanogenmod update (i had the 27/11/14 release of cmn 12 i think).
After the installation was done i had the device in rebooting loop so i entered the recovery mode and after some random wipe and restore i finally had the phone working with the 12.1 release, but without any data.
i tried to restore with a backup i had from a week ago but after that the phone went again in the rebooting issue.
i've installed again the new version of cyanogenmod hoping to backup data from google, but the fact is that i cannot because the google play services crashes continuosly so i can't use the play store neither (i've installed it manually, but it doesn't allow me to install anything cause it recognize me as users with the app already installed, although it isn't true).
i don't know how to deal with softwares and such so i thought to try with a new google users, install google again and then restore my original user, but the crashing of the google services let me think it could be another bad choice.
so, there is anyone who knows how to fix that problem or where do i have to look to find crucial informations about it and describe it better?
thanks in advance to everyone, have a nice one
Just bought a demo tablet from work and have had problems trying to get the retail demo app removed 'Liszt'
I have managed to disable the app, however this only works temporarily, as soon as you restart the tablet you have to go through the whole process of disabling again.
I have tried factory reset.
I have tried Kingo Root through a computer, it said it had succeeded however did not install SuperSu so obviously did not root properly. I have tried installing SuperSu through google play store however whenever you go into it it just comes up with 'SU Binary Occupied' so something obviously isn't correct.
I have installed 'System App Remover (ROOT)' an when opening the app it seems to think that it has rooting capabilities however when trying to uninstall Liszt it just says that it has failed.
I am pulling my hair out here trying to get this sorted and every tutorial or online info on this tablet is outdated and has links that just go absolutely nowhere, so please do not just send me to another thread where all the information and files are just non existent as you just cant follow it.
Anyone out there with previous experience in either rooting this tablet or removing 'Liszt' let me know what options I have.
Thanks in advance!
