Made the mistake of updating my Yahtzee With Buddies app. It was working better than ever with most recent update prior to 14 DEC 2016. Since update, basically dysfunctional. I am reaching out to Scopely support; however thought I'd ask here in case that comes up empty: would anyone have the most recent game apk file prior to 14 DEC? Def need to downgrade. It was thru this forum that I was able to successfully obtain the app versions needed to enjoy fb and messenger on my BBQ10. Many thanks.

Are you trying from your device browser?

Hi!

This thread is all about running Google apps on your Blackberry 10 device. But before we're talking about how to do that, you should first get familiar with some specialities of the Blackberry 10 Android runtime.

The Android runtime in BB OS 10.3 is based on a modified Android OS 4.3 (Jelly Bean). Blackberry removed all Google services from the runtime and replaced them with a Blackberry specific counterpart.

The following components have been removed or replaced by Blackberry:

• Google Account Manager -> Replaced with Blackberry Account Manager
• Google Services Framework -> Replaced with a stub that redirects Google Cloud Messaging requests to Blackberry Servers (used for push messaging).
• Google Play Store -> Replaced with Blackberry World
• Google Play Services -> Removed with no replacement

As most of the Google apps cannot run properly with this setup, the missing components must be added again to the Blackberry Android runtime. I got my hands on the Android 4.3 GAPPS package, reverse engineered the apps and patched them (Google Account Manager, Google Play Store, Google Play Services), and I wrote an fully compliant emulation of the Google Services Framework (now called Blackberry Google ID) that supports device checkin to the Google services.

If all files are installed and configured, your BB10 device will be able to run almost every Google app with full features (i.e. Google Maps, Google Photos, Google Sheets). Also 3rd Party apps like Clash of Clans will be able to use Google features (i.e. link the game to your Google account and save progress in the cloud).

Please note that you will have to patch apps like Google Maps, Google Photos or Clash of Clans so that they can work together with the new Google files on your device. These apps will display an error message such as "This app requires Google Play Services...". After patching, the message will be gone and the app will be able to use all Google Play Services features.

Known limitations:
* Push messaging in Android apps does not work (if the device is in sleep mode)
* Android Wear is only partly supported

DOWNLOAD

All files are available on one single file share. Pick the correct file according to your needs. Read the information section below for more details about the apps.

Cobalt's official file share

Google Account Manager: ESSENTIAL

The Google Account Manager provides full support for Android apps that require a Google login. It is required for most of the Google apps such as Google Maps, Google Play store or Chrome browser. Install the Google Account Manager and login to create a Google system account on your device. Do not remove the app after installation.

Latest version: Google Account Manager 4.3.3 [Released on October 10, 2015]

Google Account Manager 4.4.4 is an experimental, newer version of the Google Login app. It is taken from Android 4.4 (KitKat) and it only works if Google Play Services is installed. You should always prefer version 4.3.3 over 4.4.4, becaue 4.3.3 was specifically built for Jelly Bean.

Blackberry Google ID: ESSENTIAL

The Blackberry Google ID app emulates low level functions of the Google Services Framework. It allows to sign in the device to Google Play Store and it provides content providers that are used to exchange data between Google apps. This app must be installed if you want to use Google Play Store or Google Play Services. Do not remove after installation. Do not unregister after successful registration!

Latest version: Blackberry Google ID 2.8 [Released on December 23, 2015]

Google Play Services

The Google Play services APK contains several individual Google services and runs as a background service in the Android OS runtime. If installed, it provides full Google+ login support. Apps like Clash of Clans or Boom Beach can then synchronize progress with the remote servers. To synchronize game progress, you must also install the patched Google Play Games app.

Please note that the Google Play Services icon will be labled "Google Settings" and not "Google Play Services" after it has been installed on the device!

Latest version: Google Play Services 8.4.89 Build 5 [Released on April 13, 2016]

Latest version:Google Play Games 3.6.27 [Released on March 4, 2016]

Patching your own apps

Some apps that you download from Play Store may display an error message such as "Google Play Services is not installed on your device". These apps must be patched in order to run on a Blackberry device. Patching is required because my modified Google Play services is signed with a non-Google signing key and this key doesn't match to the hardcoded key in the apps.

Please take note of the following rules for installing patched apps:

1. ALWAYS UNINSTALL ANY UNPATCHED VERSION BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL A PATCHED ONE
2. A patched app can never update an unpatched app (signature mismatch)
3. An unpatched app can never update a patched app (signature mismatch)
4. A patched app can always update an patched app (signature is the same, because the patcher always uses the same signature)

You can download the patcher in this thread. Read the instructions there carefully:
http://forums.crackberry.com/android...rvices-914930/

DO NOT PATCH ANY OF THE APPS THAT YOU DOWNLOAD FROM THIS PAGE. THEY ARE PREPATCHED AND READY TO INSTALL!

Google+ Whitelist

This helper app spoofs the developer signature of patched apps so that they can use In-app Billing and Google+ login. You only have to whitelist an app if you want to use In-App billing or if logging in to a server fails.

When you run the app for the first time, a basic set of spoofed signatures is inserted into the database. You can then add your own signatures by following the instructions below.

Instructions:
1. Run Google+ Whitelist
2. Click on the three dots in the top right and choose add
3. Select the UNPATCHED apk file of the app and add it to the whitelist
4. Patch the app with Play Services Patcher
5. Install the patched version of the app

Pre-spoofed apps (you don't have to add them anymore):

Google+ Whitelist REQUIRES Blackberry Google ID to be installed on the device, as this app provides the database where the signatures are saved in. If you remove Blackberry Google ID from your device, you will lose your custom added signatures.

Latest version: Google+ Whitelist 1.0.0.4 [Released on October 8, 2015]

Google Play store

The Google Play store APK provides Access to the Google Play app market, where you can browse and download your favorite free and paid Android apps, books or even music. Play Store is also is required by some apps to run correctly, especially if they use any kind of license verification. Google Play store requires Google Account Manager and Blackberry Google ID to be installed on your device.

How to get ALL features working in Google Maps

• Install Google Account Manager and login
• Install Blackberry Google ID and checkin
• Install Google Play Sevices (wait 5 minutes after you installed and let the app settle)
• Patch Google Maps with Play Services Patcher
• Remove any unpatched version of Google Maps from your device (if existent)
• Install patched Google Maps

All features like instant AGPS lock-on, timeline, starred places etc. will now work as they would on an Android device.

How to synchronize your village in COC or Boom Beach

You can fully synchronize your village with your Google Account. The village will then be save, even if you delete the app or change your device.

If you already have a village in COC/Boom Beach, you'll have to contact Supercell and tell them to link your village to your Google account. Don't tell them that you have a Blackberry device. Tell them that you have a Samsung S6. Supercell will ask you some questions about your village and then give you a code that identifies your village. You can then use that code to link the village on your Blackberry device.

If you got the code, do the following:

1. Install the full Cobalt Stack (all of my apps)
2. Uninstall the existing Clash of Clans
3. Patch Clash of Clans with Play Services Patcher
4. Install the patched vesion and then connect your village with the code that your received from Supercell

If you are a new player and don't have a village yet, you can simply patch the game, install it and link it right after the turorial. Contacting Supercell is not required.

Hi all,

I'm having a problem with patched Elevate Brain Training App. It says 'Error downloading game - Please check your internet connection and try again'. I've definitely got internet, I've installed play games and I've added the unpatched apk to the Google+ whitelist and that didn't help either. I absolutely love this app and I've been trying everything I can think of to get it to work and I wonder what I'm missing. Any help would be so greatly appreciated!!

You install 4.4.4 over 4.3.3, but don't open it.

Only use Cobalt's Google Play Store (which happens to be v6).

Uber app can no longer be recompiled when patched for maps. Use m.uber.com.

Apktool is used by Patcher app. Google it for the latest version and replace the one in the Patcher lib folder.

Get a developer maps api key so you can use it to patch apps that use mapping functions. Insert this key into Patcher app under "Google Maps" tab.

Google Play Services is the only file with v9 in the name.

Do I need multiple of these keys prior to patching EVERY app, need mapping function?

H. Google Play Store, are they same just different names (I read in few posts), If they are different, when do I install Play Store and Where can I get that from?

Many Thanks.

I can tell you NO to "D", just install 4.4.4 over 4.3.3 [sic] like he said a bunch of times in just the past recent days, scroll back in this very "apps landing page" and good luck to YOU.

Also, remember - Do not even open 4.4.4 just install it over the prior version mentioned above which was taught to me by Conite.

Also, as for the api Gmaps key, you only need one google maps api key per person unless you are a developer of some sort id think then you may need a few.. anywho,. It's free!

Again scroll back just a few pages for Conites suggestion on the order to install everything. Again, good luck.

If you really want it to work and learn, it is easy. You will be wondering why you had so much trouble in a week to three if you really take your time and get into it. Conite usually will always have the answer but to repeat over and over, I dunno how he does it so if a touch of sarcasm makes him feel better (not in your case) I say it's his privilege! Seriously... I couldn't do what he does...

BTW: I am tech savvy and had some unknown questions as well as silly ones that were answered so don't feel any type of way or explain, Conite usually always has the answer - Just ask but try not to ask twice+ is just my opinion! Conite is a "to the point guy" which I suppose you have to be when answering the same questions over and over or even just questions that maybe he feels to be basic knowledge. Again, I dunno how he does it but he does. Without his past help, i'd of been stuck but when it got real silly as if I was being lazy he would send me on a little tour around crackberry unassisted which looking back now, was smart of him to do for him and in the end, helped me even more!

I assure you, everything you need to know is on CB already.

PS: I am jealous he even gave you links, very few get links to the info! Trust me. You will get it. When you have a separate question from what you asked already, just ask, don't let anything discourage you.

Hi

Could some one please help me patch a file.
I am trying tp Patch Google Maps Version 9.42.3 for my BB Passport.

I am trying to patch the apps with PS_Patcher-1.6, using API Key (under Google Map Tab) and i have also replaced apktool latest file in lib folder of teh patcher but i get following error message:

Processing C:\Users\SinghSun\Desktop\com.google.android.apps. maps.apk
The package contains 3 classes.dex files
[Decompiling classes]
Fatal error: Decompilation failed, aborting.
[Cleaning up]
Done.

is teher a step by step guide what options to tick and/or untick in the patcher before patching an app?

I have patched files in teh past with Cobal's patcher but without using API Key and without replacing Apktook file.
I have also read this link but still not sure what needs to be done.

Did you enable the "decompile resource" under the Options tab....it needs to be checked.

Not for GMaps. His problem is that he turned it on.

I see that now... I read it as he has patched GMaps and he is trying to patch a secondary app with his personal API key.

Thanks Conite.
I shall not use API key to patch Google Map app.
