Play Store not working in all Special builds #179
Comments
|
Play Store/Android apps is a known issue.. |
|
If you got Acer Chromebook C720 C720P - I posted on XDA forum chromebook section a hack to get the Play Store, by modding your Chromium OS R55 using Acer CB recovery rom of R11 - from USB only. |

Ref comment Missing files & folders in arnoldthebat |
|
Look to resize sdb3 as part of R70 build |
|
The question is: will Google let you implement Android without hassles? |
|
Missing arc files in /etc/init: - arc-adbd.conf arc-kmsg-logger.conf arc-network.conf arc-removable-media.conf arc-setfattr.conf arc-start-sysctl.conf arc-ureadahead.conf arc-boot-continue.conf arc-lifetime.conf arc-obb-mounter.conf arc-sdcard.conf arc-setup-env arc-stop-sysctl.conf arc-ureadahead-trace.conf Missing folders / files in /opt/google/containers/ Other misc - |
|
On a tangent - |
|
They just appeared as part of R69. Nothing for me to do other than build |
|
I see... so you are not guilty... |
|
I am glad to also report something positive - Crostini works well with your r69 Chromium OS Special Build update - tested on Acer Chromebook C720P from USB. |
|
Another related query - is it possible to increase the sizes of rootfs A & B partitions without breaking the installation? they seem to be protected, signed? |
|
with arnoldthebat, none. |
|
Looking forward to your R70 build - did you get the source code to compile it yet? |
|
Just to let you know - For Acer Chromebook C720P - from USB 3.0 - |
|
So you installed arnoldthebat r69 Chromium OS first, then upgraded it to ChromeOS with Chromefy? I'm looking at using Chromefy too. |
|
Look at post 111 - only for Acer Chromebook C720P - for others you need to identify correct recovery roms to use, for C720P cyan/caroline. |
Yes, but you need to remove rootfs protection. Then you can do whatever you want with the rootfs partition (ROOT-A and ROOT-B if you like). I made mine 4GB. On Android Apps, is the related container stored in rootfs or somehow extracted at first use to State partition from a heavily compressed image, if the rootfs does not have enough space in normal Chromebooks, I mean, how does Google deal with it? |
|
This problem is not an issue for me anymore thanks to the chromefy script - forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78253693&postcount=110 |

chromeos_11151.33.0_nocturne_recovery_stable-channel_mp.bin was released, it's for the Google Chromebook Slide & is Chrome OS 71 - RFC - |
|
Testing chromeos_11151.33.0_nocturne_recovery_stable-channel_mp.bin |
|
New Chromebook recovery releases in recovery.conf - chromeos_11021.81.0 Might be r70 ? - will @arnoldthebat builds get compiled soon? https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78370123&postcount=121 |
|
For ref, Ive started building rootfs with 4GB for all builds. Hopefully this will stop you having to resize stuff |
|
@imperador Try this build for the 4GB rootfs partitions. I will look to maintain it separately from the main builds if it helps you out. https://chromium.arnoldthebat.co.uk/.testing//chromiumos_image.bin.7z |
|
@arnoldthebat Thanks a lot! I'll try it tomorrow |
|
Managed to build Chrome OS Kernel with extra modules & installed it manually - |
|
I guess am on my own & will have to figure out the hard way how to build up a Chromium OS for myself, sad to see coders hoarding knowledge :( |
|
Nobody's "hoarding" knowledge. The full developer guide for building Chromium OS images, installing it, developing it, etc is publicly available from Google here: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/docs/+/master/developer_guide.md |
Well I am not a great coder, I managed to figure out how to build the kernel, & manually force it in, but it's far from perfect - asking for advice is not a sin. I have no problem with Ubuntu or Arch Linux kernel building, but Google is not making clear instructions for obvious reasons - corporate greed. |
|
OK - I finally got the chromefied ATB v72 with eve 73 / swtpm kernel upgraded from 4.14.83 to 4.14.96 - it works great on Acer iconia W700 including Android, camera & camera migration - the oddity - it removed crostini - it I put back kernel 4.14.83 crostini comes back - is there a setting I am missing? appreciate an answer if any - |
If you share the .config Ill build it into my next release... |
sure - I need to recheck it as when I run make it tends to remove some settings like the one for backlight for apple macbook air I will put it in dropbox & post the link |
|
Here is the dropbox link |
|
Still no luck with Acer Chromebook C720P - tried several changes to .config with make menuconfig & manually - boots to a blank screen still :( Display PanelsCONFIG_DRM_PANEL_LVDS=y |
|
I need help - after building / updating kernel from 4.14.83 to 4.14.96 - Just building the kernel & forcing in vmlinuz.A in /dev/sdx12 syslinux using bzImage (& modules in /lib/modules) It seems I also need to generate a new blob for the kernel which is /dev/sdx2 https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78945492&postcount=13 this might be the cause for losing crostini... |
|
RFC - how to produce a Chromium OS blob for loading an updated newer kernel? @GoogleDevs @arnoldthebat @itsfoss2 @croissantDev @meNabster |
|
Can you provide your kernel.bin to flash to /dev/sdb2? |
|
Anyways, I am following up on a thorough analysis of blobs in that thread, will welcome any suggestions on how to generate data for config.txt to build a successful blob using: |
|
Your latest 0Day 10/03 R72 release still does not boot to GUI Acer Chromebook C720P - what changed from R69 to R72 (or for that matter from R55 to R58) ? |
|
RFC - why did you change the size of the blob partitions KERN-A/KERN-B from 16MB in R69 to 64MB in R72? - FydeOS 6.0 kept them at 16MB... |
|
I didn't consciously. The default build scripts made the change...

Looks like chromium devs cripple software not to interfere with Google profits -
|
|
I can confirm that it is Google Devs who increased Chromium/Chrome OS KERN-A/KERN-B P2/P4 from 16MB to 64MB. |
I am going to take a wild guess here and say that Google probably increased KERN-A/KERN-B to 64MB in order to future-proof the OS. |
|
Pleased to let you know that booting ATB Special v72 is solved by flashing the firmware of Acer Chromebook C720P... |
|
Latest special build for 64-bit systems has Play Store in it, does not work though, it says that "a problem happened". After Chromefy-ing ChromiumOS it works. |
After flashing firmware I can boot ATB v72 - |
you still have the fyde os 5.3 image? If possibile can you send it to me thks. |

Thanks for your reply. Can you upload it to Drive or Mega? And I want to
ask you. I just found v5.2 dev image. Have you tried that version? Any
issues so far? I am using that image and everything looks good .

Im closing this since its not relevant now. I cannot fix the Play Store until Google open source the blobs. There are well documented ways around this using Google searches |
