Google services cannot be removed from the device, because they are responsible for the operation of the following processes:

Updates allow the owner of the device to use programs from Google with the most current interface and new features. Each update fixes previous errors and improves program performance.

Method 1 - UsePlay Market

The first and easiest way to install updates for standard services is to use. The store icon is in the main menu of the phone. To start downloading programs you need only to log in using your own one - you can use an existing profile or create new account.

Starting to download new components begins when the phone connects to a fast Internet connection (via Wi-Fi). The second option is that the user himself starts the update process for the program he needs.

Pay attention to the source from which the installation file is downloaded.  To confirm its safety, we recommend before starting it in operating system.

It will be impossible to install the program if installation from unverified sources is prohibited. To enable this option, go to the device settings. Then open the tab "Applications" and tick the box indicated in the figure below:


Now you can run the APK file.  Confirm your agreement with the policy of using software from the developer and wait until the installation of the program is completed. The services icon from Google will appear in the main menu of the phone.
