There is new version of Google Play APK floating around, and it’s 3.7.15 — up from the last one, v3.7.13. Being a small update (numerically), and having installed it I can say as expected it didn’t make any significant changes to the Play Store and looks more like a bug-fixer and small-changes-made kind of update. But there has never been a good official changelog of Google Play updates, so let’s ignore this and skip to links and installation procedure, which is what all you want is, no?
Installation of the Google Play APK 3.7.15 is easy — just download the file on phone and install by tapping on it (making sure that ‘unknown sources’ under settings in enabled). For not so experienced people, a detailed guide below is all you would need.
Note:
You DO NOT need root for this. And installing the Google Play (or any app using an APK) is very very easy!
Install Google Play Store APK 3.7.15 [Guide]
- Download the Google Play APK 3.7.15. Filename: gplay3.7.15.apk
- Transfer it to phone if you downloaded it on PC.
- Enable “Unknown sources” under Settings » Applications, so that you can install applications from SD Card. If you are on Ice Cream Sandwich or Jelly Bean (Android 4.0 and lovely Android 4.1, respectively), find it under Settings » Security.
- Make sure you have a (any) file manager installed. Open file manager app and go to folder where you downloaded/transferred the GP3.7.13.apk (if you downloaded it on phone, it should be in Download folder).
- Tap on the Google Play file — gplay3.7.15.apk — to begin installation procedure and it will be installed in less than a minute. That’s it. Open the Google Play app now from the app drawer.
Let us know via comments if you need any help over installing/downloading this. And, I guess, you’ll need to be on Android 2.2 or higher to be able to update your Google Play.

What’s the android OS version on your device?
I am on ICS 4.0.4, NOT rooted. I can install and open Google Play 3.7.15, but when I try to download or update an app, GP force closes. I clear the data for GP, then go back and try to download and it forces closes again. What is the fix?

when I downloaded the file it came up as a txt file (downloaded from phone) which I found to be really weird. I had lost play store in a borked rom, so I renamed the file to apk and it seems to be working just fine (EVO 3D running MeanICS)

I downloaded the Google play app, however when I click on it I get the following message “you must add an account to the device to continue” and then it goes to the main app menu….what to do? Please help
Then add a gmail account first in settings – accounts and sync.
So I downloaded the app. Signed into my google account everything. But now everytime I try to install an app, I get a message with ‘unfortunately google play has closed’, and then the app closes. Then every time if I try to open it, I get the same message, until I reboot my tablet. I get the same thing when I try to install it via the computer. My Android version is something with 4… 4.0 or something like that 😛 Can someone help me/does someone has the same problem?? It sucks goes Google Play has like the best apps >_> btw rebooting my tablet doesnt help, cause even if I reboot it and start up Google Play, everything is fine…untillll I try to install an app 😛
Go to Settings – Apps – find Play Store and do “clear data”. Hope it helps. Let me know.
Hmm it didnt work, but I think I found the solution, I had a internet connection with a cable, and I believe it only works if you connect with WiFi, but my tablet’s wifi is messed up so I can only connect with a cable for now on -.-‘ Thanks anyway!
