Can't use any customs roms with Google. - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

Hi,
i'm on OOS since some weeks now and i wanted to try some roms again (Screwd, LR and so on) and for some reasons i can't use gapps on any custom roms, telling me that I need to login with the owner's adress (which is mine but k)
On stock there are no problems.
Any help ? I know OOS is alright but i don't like it.

Sounds like FRP (factory reset protection) is causing you issues.
I would try factory resetting the device before installing a new ROM.
If that doesn't work try disabling "Find my device" via your google account.

what's the correct way to factory reset it ? i did something which was close to it but i never had to do that prior flashing a rom before

Ok so I fixed it, for future reference :
You just need to remove your google account in Settings>Accounts and that's it.

[Q] Can't install apps. via market.android.com.

After having done a factory reset, installing my apps. via the Android Market website no longer works. It show's my device on the list and tells me it will install shortly on my phone, but nothing happens. I am logged in on market on the phone.
I have a Desire HD running 2.3.
try clearing all market data/cache or do another factory reset?
If that doesnt work, try logging in with another google account, or installing a new market
It happened to me once, but the only thing that fixed it was flashing a new rom.

Here's what I tried:
- Clearing cache didn't work.
- Tried creating new gmail account, added it in Sync-settings and wen't to market on phone. Clicked "Menu" and choose the new account for the market. Went to market-website, but it simply says "No devices assosiated with this account..." Why can't it find my device?
- Tried using old market with old account (since it's the only that can detect my device), no go.
I can see if I go to Market>Programs (the list of the ones I've installed), at the bottom it shows the Apps. I tried to install via market-website. They're not installed, and I can only go in manually and press "Install". So, it adds them to the Programs-list, but doesn't install them.
What do?
Sometimes I can't install too, the other time I just can... kinda strange

It has worked perfectly, until I did a factory reset. Now it simply never works.
Managed to fix it!
Apparently "Google Talk" was stuck, somehow - I rebooted the phone, opened "Talk" and it signed in successfully (got error: cannot connect to servers, before I rebooted), suddenly all the programs I've tried installing via market-website, started installing and I was spammed with facebook notifications.
I had never considered the app. "Talk" as I never knew it was associated notifications, connection between market-website and such. Oh well, good stuff it works now.

[Q] Stuck and lost with Google Play Services - unable to update, please help

Symptoms
Google Play Services Error - receiving a message " An Application Requires and Update"
when trying to use "Update" , I get "Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again"
when trying to "Deactivate" i get "This app is a device administrator and must be deactivated before uninstalling"
this is now affecting other apps (Google Keep, Hangouts, etc)
I talked to Google already ,cleared download manager, did factor reset twice, no avail, same issue. their recommendation is to contact Asus
Yesterday I unlocked and rooted the tablet, same issue.
Any suggestions? I downloaded "com.google.android.gms.apk" but the system does not let me install it
Thank you in advance , I am stuck for over 3 weeks
You can try going into the Google Play Services app, then force stop, clear cache and clear data. This may do it.
What you may need to do, what I've had to do, is delete the Google account off your device, then add it back. (A reboot in between couldn't hurt.) Why this happens, I don't know.
I suggest to flash a factory image, may be, there is something destroyed in the firmware ...
Just wondering....

I am not sure that I have any clever answers right now, but to clarify the problem, is this with Google Play itself not letting you update or install anything (without producing this error message) or is it a specific app that you are trying to update which is the only one resulting in this error?

It is both
a) Google Play Services require an update (which refuses to install)
b) com.google.android.keep (Google Keep) requires an update (otherwise not letting to open -" This app won't run unless you update Google Play Services"). when trying to update it takes you to the same screen for Google Play Services update which fails.
If it helps, the store shows me 4.0.34 section under "What's new" which I think is not the latest Google Play Services apk
Thank you
tried both...

I tried both (multiple times), as installed by Google Support and forums
a) removal of all accounts
b) reset to factory image.
c) force stop, cache/data clear
same issues
any other thoughts guys? is custom ROM by only answer?
if it helps, this is an LTE tablet
How about this?

Don't know if it is possible but can you get the latest Google Play apk and install it manually?

I tried that too.. with noresults - may be not doing it right.
Used Wugs Nexus Root Toolkit (which I find to be excellent along with instructions) and tried to use ES file explorer to manually copy/load apk - no success.
thank you for trying to help

At this point I'd make backups and flash a new ROM (stock or custom LTE). Something's been corrupted that isn't easily fixable, and you'll save time in the end by starting over from scratch.
I would agree that it sounds very much like something is corrupt in the ROM that you currently have; I would have a browse through the appropriate forums and find a new flavour of ROM to flash onto your device.
I have also heard great things about Wug's toolkit but have yet to use it myself.... about all I *need* to change on my N7 right now is root so that I can install a few choice apps that would not run otherwise, but don't want to wipe everything just for the sake of it
removed google+ from my account, solved.

for all its worth, I solved it by reflushing factory image and removing google plus entry from my google account. no issues now. thanks to all who helped!
If that is what worked, I am glad you have a working solution I can't take any credit for suggesting what you had probably tried anyway.....

[Q] Installed CyanogenMod updates no connection to Play Store

I was running cm-10.2.1 and last night I installed CyanogenMod updates cm-11-20140104-SNAPSHOT-M2 and cm-11-20140210-SNAPSHOT-M3. Several of my apps either quit working or disappeared. When I clicked on Play Store to try and re-install the apps, I got a message of "No Connection". Searched the problem and several people said to delete the Google Account and re-install it. After deleting it, the phone will not let me recreate it. When I click on Add Account and then the Google symbol, nothing happens.
Is there solution to fix this? if not, can I just re-install 10.2.1 and fix it?
My phone is an AT&T SGS3.
Thanks,
retnuh
Re-flash GApps, that has happened to me before, and this is what fixed it.
As LittlePalmTree stated, sounds like you need to reflash GAPPS. Make sure you grab the one compatible with cm11. cm11 is android 4.4 where as cm10.2 was 4.3 if I am not mistaken.
Thanks for the help. I tried to re-flash the gapps after reading the first reply but before reading the second reply. You guessed it. I did it wrong. The phone would not get past the spinning circle screen. Ended up using CWM to re-flashing the rom stored on my phone and also re-flashing the gapps stored on my phone. So, I'm back to version 10.2.0, but at least my phone is working again. While I would like to update, I'm afraid I will mess my phone up again.
Thank you for both of your replies.
Googled the problem and found a few solutions from the simple - force stop/clear cache - up to full factory resets.
Different things seemed to work for different people.
Tried the force stop/clear cache and check time/date is correct (which causes some people problems.
Then I tried removing my Google account and adding it in again. However, it wouldn't let me do that until I re-flashed GAPPS. Did that and it all works fine now.

Yesterday I activated my samsung account on the device and since then it keeps downloading stuff like launchers and apps, sometimes without even my acceptance
I tried to remove my account but it says I have to reset my device to factory reset.. Which I'm not willing to do
Is there any way to stop this?

Google Play Services missing after factory reset

Hi
I need help.
On Friday I did a factory reset via settings menu on my m8 (TMO-111(DE)-stockrom, locked, s-on, 6.12.111.4-ota) 'cause I want to pass it on to my son.
After the process I completed the initial setup and mentioned messages "Google Play Services needed, please install" (coming from i.e. Hangouts and other Google apps).
I checked in the apps and found the Google play services completely missing. (Yes, they have been there and working before the factory reset.)
After performing another factory resets first via settings and then again (same result...) via bootmenu (again same result) as well as deleting caches and data via fastboot, I started to search for apks for manual installation.
I found them via apkmirror and tryed several 438 versions. After manual installation I get again and again popups saying Google Play services has been stopped.
I assume there is something else missing.
Have tried everything I could think of since friday. Well not everything, until now I try to avoid to unlock the bootloader and root considering the target person...
Maybe someone having a signed RUU 6.12.111.4 or newer which I could flash to get it working again?
Anyone out there having another idea how to fix this?
Regards,
Steffen
Hi. Did you find a solution? I have the exact same issue.
I also have this issue. any update?
I would suggest flashing a gapps package , but that might require unlocking and rooting
