Genymotion with Google Play Services for ARM

genymotionwithplay.txt

NOTE: Easier way is the X86 way, described on https://www.genymotion.com/help/desktop/faq/#google-play-services

Download the following ZIPs:
    
    ARM Translation Installer v1.1 (http://www.mirrorcreator.com/files/0ZIO8PME/Genymotion-ARM-Translation_v1.1.zip_links)
    
    Download the correct GApps for your Android version:
      Google Apps for Android 6.0 (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347835438 - benzo-gapps-M-20151011-signed-chroma-r3.zip)
      Google Apps for Android 5.1 (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891406 - gapps-L-4-21-15.zip)
      Google Apps for Android 5.0 (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001614559 - gapps-lp-20141109-signed.zip)
      Google Apps for Android 4.4.4 (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358544845 - gapps-kk-20140606-signed.zip)
      Google Apps for Android 4.3 (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23060877490000124 - gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip)
      Google Apps for Android 4.2 (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23060877490000128 - gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip)
      Google Apps for Android 4.1 (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22979706399755082 - gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip)
      Google Apps for Android 2.3.7 (http://www.mediafire.com/download/bs063kb0m742o5l/gapps-gb-20131027-signed.zip - gapps-gb-20131027-signe.zip)
  
Note: Genymotion must be set to use it's own ADB (Settings -> ADB -> Use Genymotion Android tools)

Next Open your Genymotion VM and go to the Homescreen

Now Drag&Drop the Genymotion-ARM-Translation.zip onto the Genymotion VM window.

It should say "File transfer in progress", once it asks you to flash it click 'OK'

Now Reboot your VM using ADB. If nescessary you can simply close the VM window, not recommended

Once you're on the Homescreen again Drag&Drop the gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip (or whatever version you got) onto your VM, and click 'OK' when asked

Once it finishes, again Reboot your VM and open the Google Play Store.

Sign in using your Google account

Once in the Store go to the 'My Apps' menu and let everything update (fixes a lot of issues), also try updating Google Play Services directly (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gms).
You can also search for Google Maps, update it manually (press update or install button) and you will receive the message to update Google Play Services
(For Android 4.4.4 and 5.0 is posible you need to reboot several times before updates are shown)

Now try searching for apps in Google Play and if you can find and install for example 'Netflix' or 'Google Drive' then congrats you now have ARM support and Google Play fully setup!

I keep getting this error when I drag and drop the gapps file:

Ooops, something went wrong while flashing gapps-kk-20140105-signed (1).zip.

I am pretty sure I am installing the right one. How does one know if you're installing the right gapps file for the software you're using? I am installing this gapps file mentioned above in the error with KitKat 4.4.2 on Samsung Galaxy S3.

Also does adb reboot mean just quit genymotion and launch again? If not, what else is it?

@wbroek How did you install the ARM translation on the Lollipop VM? I have tried it several times, but it won't work (Google Play says Netflix isn't compatible with my device). Also tested it on Anrdoid 4.3 which works, so I guess I'm doing it the right way..

@wbroek That's strange, on one computer it works but on the other I've problem with Google sign-in. Play Services crash on the "Checking info" screen every time. There's no way to update Play Services without Google Account signed in. Any solution for such issue?

@dtrejogo I'm having the exact same issue.
First I got "Failed to flash file Genymotion-ARM-Translation_v1.1.zip". Only after the third time it worked.

Now stuck on the same error with the "apps-lp-20141109-signed.zip"
Tried many times, and still no luck.

Similar case for me, flashing "Genymotion-ARM-Translation_v1.1.zip" and then "gapps-kk-20140606-signed.zip" works on one samsung galaxy s5 emulator, but doing exactly the same thing in another pc (that doesn't support cpu virtualization technology, don't know if that has anything to do with it) doesn't, fails on the second flashing with "failed to flash bla bla bla".

Not able to drag & drop anything to the device, when I attempt to drag the ARM or the gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip files to the device, the mouse changes to the black circle with a line through it and nothing happens. Have attempted with different devices and dragging the file from multiple locations, even tried to download the files directly to the device instead of using the drag/drop method. Nothing seems to work, could it be due to Windows8.1? Genymotion version is latest available on the official site.

that's all. working very good

I'm having trouble with other, non-Gapps, ARM applications in Android 5.1 with Genymotion (namely, the PS4 remote play application, which I wanted to try on a newer version than 4.3 where it's confirmed working, since it may need H264_MAIN support). Any suggestions?

Quite frankly I'm a bit dubious here. The latest version asks for your mobile number when trying to register as a new user. And I wouldn't recommend using an existing, verified google account, well except if you check the signature etc.. but frankly even so, it's very risky.

Process was straightforward. But whenever I restart the device it pauses for a few minutes and shows the message "Android is starting... Optimizing app x of xx". Is there a way to prevent this delay? Thanks.

I can't login into Google Play, when it starts I get this after a while:

Couldn't sign in
Can't establish a reliable connection to the server.
This could be a temporary problem or your Android device may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care.

I can browse the playstore pages in the web browser, so I am definitely connected to the internet.

for Google Apps, I would suggest providing a link to the generic folder that sorts all links to all files by Android version instead of linking to the files themselves. The file links are likely to change randomly, but the folder link remains constant.

Does anyone able to flash gapps to latest android 6.0 preview image? I'm currently using Genymotion v.2.5.4.
I already tried various 6.0 gapps but always resulting in failed to flash dialog. I tried to invoke it directly using adb with flash-archive.sh xx.zip command but it seems it got issue with [ERROR][execute_update_binary].
Is this related to the ARM Translation issue? probably an update.

@hristova nope, not yet. Probably because the current gapps were still in alpha and there is some change in system on the Marshmallow image Preview.

3. sign in into your google account.
4. flash benzo-gapps-M-20151011-signed-chroma-r3.zip then restart.

Make sure you have the ARM translations installed and that you restart the emulator when that's done. It seems to help if you kill adb (adb kill-server) before moving on. Then, install the Google Apps for Android 5.1 (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891406 - gapps-L-4-21-15.zip) version on Android 6. Works for me. Though Play Services crashes pretty regularly.

I wasted hours on this, trying to set up for M (6.0 API.23) on Genymotion, but gave up, and instead used the Android stock emulator Nexus 5 API 23, which has Google Play Services already installed and ready to roll. I then carefully followed the instructions at "http://developer.android.com/about/versions/marshmallow/android-6.0.html", and used adb.exe in a CMD shell to issue "adb -e emu finger touch 1" to (1) register a fingerprint, and (2) emulate a fingerprint touch using the Fingerprint example at "https://github.com/googlesamples/android-FingerprintDialog'. To my great surprise.... EVERYTHING worked perfectly. :-)

The 6.0 Gapps are crashing because they don't have the right permissions. This (TeamExodus/frameworks_base@9c36be6) has to be integrated to Genymotion Android 6.0 images.

Unfortunately I tried also flash 5.1 Gapps to Android 6.0 images with partially success. After update Google Play Services, they stopped to work and crashing all time.

@Ajeyi I've just run into the same problem. I guess you've figured it out by now, but here is the solution to everyone having the same error:

If an alert says "An error occured while deploying the file", change Genymotion's ADB settings to default
(Settings -> ADB -> Use Genymotion Android tools)

Okay, I tried all of the suggestions and nothing worked so I just went through and disabled Google Play Services and Google Play Store. Somehow this setup the factory version of everything Google related and allowed me to go back and reenable everything which fixed the Google Play Services crashes and allowed me to run the setup wizard without crashing. Hopefully this helps someone else save some time.

This was after installing L-4-21-15.zip and before switching to benzo-gapps-M-20151011-signed-chroma-r3.zip.

I am confirming that steps from @esantiago1 works!

Here is what I did:

1. Install a latest Genymotion (version 2.6.0 in my case). Make sure the previous old (preview) Android 6.0 images are removed (Genymotion -> Settings -> Misc -> Clear cache).
2. Add a new virtual device, select Google Nexus 5X and Android 6.0 image. It should download a new image from Genymotion website.
3. Start created Google Nexus 5X - 6.0.0 - API 23 - 1080x1920 virtual device.
4. Flash Genymotion-ARM-Translation_v1.1.zip (drag&drop the zip file to virtual device window) and then restart the virtual device.
5. Flash gapps-L-4-21-15.zip and restart the virtual device again.
6. Now add Google account in the virtual device via Settings -> Accounts -> Add account. Do not start Google Play! Ignore any crashes in sign in process.
7. Flash benzo-gapps-M-20151011-signed-chroma-r3.zip and restart the virtual device.
8. Open Google Play in virtual device, update all installed applications. Start Google Now with long touch on home button to force dialog with request to update Google Play Services. Update Google Play Services.
9. Now the device is prepared with working Google Play and Google Play Services.

@hardik-d In platform 6.0 after installing **Genymotion-ARM-Translation_v1.1.zip ** you have to install gapps-L-4-21-15.zip (ignore crashes) sign in to your google account and then install benzo-gapps-M-20151011-signed-chroma-r3.zip . Reboot where ever necessary.

It seems like benzo-gapps-M-20151011-signed-chroma-r3.zip lacks the ability to sign in properly and hence the above methods is required as detailed by @esantiago1 & @arcao .

Looks like ARM translation package is broken and cannot deploy anymore with Genymotion's latest Android build.
When I drag to the simulator, I get something like An error occurred while deploying the file

These instructions are incorrect, old arm translation only works on 4.x images, for android 5 or 6 you need arm translation made for these versions which can be found here :

@arcao when you say "Restart the Device", you mean Quit out of the Genymotion emulator and Start up the Emutor again from the Genymotion main screen?

Am I the only one who is not seeing the Google Play App on my virtual device?
I have Genymotion 2.7.2 and am using the Nexus 5X with Android 6.0 API 23. I have searched the phone but cannot find a Google Play Store app or anything related to Google Play, only general apps like contacts and settings and messaging.

I followed @arcao 's steps and everything worked perfectly up until the second to last step where you have to update things by opening Google Play. Can someone help me understand why this is the case?

For those who experienced problems with ARM Translation on Lollipop (Android 5.X), use the updated version from http://23pin.logdown.com/posts/294446-genymotion-use-arm-translation-on-5x-image (hosted on Mega : https://mega.nz/#!Mt8kyBxa!iVJYC7eI7ruLVoaarWIa85QOm_VlH53G0knVGpoSlAE ).

For me, it resolve errors seen (with 'adb logcat') when app crash : 'java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unable to load native library: /data/app/xxxxxxxxxx/lib/arm/libmain.so'.

Note: I'm using Genymotion v2.7.2 rev 20160613-d7856fb with a Custom Phone - 5.1.0 - API 22

@anonym24 I think you just have to update the apps as is explained here: https://inthecheesefactory.com/blog/how-to-install-google-services-on-genymotion/en I haven't myself yet, I'm downloading to see if I can make it

This is such a hack and it installed some crappy executables on my machine. Is there not an official way to run Google Play Store in Geny Motion? It seems like they're leading the industry in this space and this issue would have ben addressed.

Hey everyone!

The reason why Google Play Services are not included by default is simply a matter of intellectual property.
But if you really need them, we've shared a fully functional (and official) way using OpenGapps.

It can be found at genymotion.com/faq/#google-play-services

Let me know if you have any questions :)

tested successfully on android 5.1 genymotion 2.8.1 with one crash only Ubuntu 14.04 (with gcc-4.9 g++-4.9)
Custom Phone - 5.1.0 - API 22 - 768x1280
i flashed Genymotion-ARM-Translation.zip then restart( adb reboot).
then flashed gapps-L-4-21-15.zip then restart( adb reboot)
this time android message like "gapps stopped working" then ( adb reboot) - which wasn't necessary
then i run Google play -> entered email & password -> it crashed after agree on google terms (still working in the background but the GUI vanished
so i restart (adb reboot) and kill the process(VMBoxHeadless)
again start google play and agree on google play terms.
hope it will help someone

It seems that Genymotion 2.8.1 has changed to only use x86 emulator images (possibly explained here) .

Thus, like @amaels referenced in genymotion.com/faq/#google-play-services, now we only need to use x86 architecture of OpenGapps instead of other architectures and the arm translator.

@JaxGit have you been able to successfully install OpenGapps (x86) in Genymotion 2.8.1? Because whatever combination I try, it won't do it.

The original gist instructions are totally outdated.

You need special arm translators for Android 5.x and 6.x. And there is none for 7.x.

Here are the tools you need (as of April 2017):

5.x translator, 6.x translator, google apps installers, and supersu for rooting.

Edit: I cannot get them to run certain apps reliably... The only reliable setup I have found is to go back to Android 4.3 (on Genymotion 2.8.1) with the old school ARM Translator v1.1. Everything from Android 4.4 and up is just garbage when it comes to ARM emulation.
