I just updated to 5.0 Lollipop and I keep on getting a notification telling me to update Google Play services. When I tap on that notification, I get taken to the Google Play page but no buttons for an update or anything. Every Google app that I have seems to be working fine, I was even able to download an app from the Play Store still, and yet I keep getting that.


How do I get rid of that notif?


Edit: fixed.

Install Android Wear from the Play Store https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...om.google.android.wearable.app&token=XPLEbelz and run it once. It will immediately update to the latest version of Google Play Services which is actually newer than the version pushed to phones not running Android Wear.

If you plan to buy an Android Wear device soon (like a smartwatch) just leave Android Wear on your phone, otherwise feel free to uninstall it after the Play Services update.

I can't uninstall it also! Have you found a solution? I would be gratefull!

Google Play Services can't be uninstalled unless you root your phone, and even so it's not a good idea since many apps/processes depend on it. Are you having any particular problem with Play Services?

Hi. How did you solve this problem? I have downloaded the specific app I wanted but I get a notification to update Google Play services. When In press update I get a notification that I need to sign in to my google account - but I'm already signed in so what could be the problem?
