At the end of the log, it says something about a certificate being invalid. I tried downloading it through opengapps, as well as a local file, and it didn’t work. Any suggestions?

penjelasan untuk: indonesia.

saya juga mengalami hal yang sama, karna melakukan tutorial yang salah. saya melihat tutorial di youtube, karna tertarik dengan fydeos. setelah saya cari tau semua, saya menemukan tutorial resmi dari website fydeos: https://fydeos.io/help/knowledge-base/getting-started/setup/install-google-play-store/.

saya mengecek android versi kembali, ternyata versi android 13 dan fydeos versi 20. lalu saya lakukan step by step pada intruksi yang tertera di website. lalu saya download file yang ada di cros.tech sesuai dengan intruksi. setelah itu saya install, 40% berjalan. beberapa menit kemudian muncul peringatan gagal “something error”.

cara memperbaikinya:
buka pengaturan fydeos
cari preferensi sitem
lalu ada judul reset dengan 2 sub judul powerwash dan reset keamanan.
fokus ke judul powerwash lalu tekan reset (harap cadangkan data penting terlebih dahulu).
fydeos akan mereset ulang data kamu dari awal “kecuali developer mode”.

setelah direset langkah awal

  • launch android subsystem terlebih dahulu dan jangan lupa cek kembali versi androidnya.
  • lalu ikuti langkah dari website resmi fydeos yg telah saya berikan di atas dari awal sampai akhir
  • jika anda sudah mengikuti langkah di website resmi yang saya berikan, maka anda telah mendownload file dari opengapps(dot)org untuk android 9 dan 11, lalu cros(dot)tech untuk android 13.
  • buka store, buka opengapps, pilih file download dari sumber cros(dot)tech khusus android 13(karena paling banyak gagal instal user fydoes 20 android13).
  • setelah itu tekan instal, yang sebelumnya loading saya stuck di 40%, sekarang bisa sampai 80% ke 100%.
  • setelah selesai akan muncul reboot.

waktu saya habis 6 jam untuk mencari tahu dan mencoba instal lalu gagal.

Here is your translation into US English:

I experienced the same issue because I followed the wrong tutorial. I initially watched a tutorial on YouTube because I was interested in FydeOS. After doing some research, I found the official tutorial on the FydeOS website: https://fydeos.io/help/knowledge-base/getting-started/setup/install-google-play-store/.

I checked my Android version again and found that it was Android 13, while my FydeOS was version 20. I followed the step-by-step instructions provided on the website. Then, I downloaded the required file from cros.tech as instructed. After installing it, the process reached 40% completion. However, a few minutes later, I encountered a failure warning: “something error.”

How to fix it:

  1. Open FydeOS settings.
  2. Find the System Preferences section.
  3. Look for the Reset option, which contains two sub-options: Powerwash and Security Reset.
  4. Focus on Powerwash, then press Reset (make sure to back up important data first).
  5. FydeOS will reset everything to default except developer mode.

After resetting, follow these initial steps:

  • First, launch Android Subsystem and double-check the Android version.
  • Then, follow the steps outlined in the official FydeOS website tutorial from start to finish.
  • If you have followed the official tutorial, you should have downloaded files from opengapps(dot)org for Android 9 and 11, and cros(dot)tech for Android 13.
  • Open the Store, go to OpenGApps, and select the download file from cros(dot)tech specifically for Android 13 (since installation failures are most common among FydeOS 20 users with Android 13).
  • After that, press Install. While the process previously stalled at 40%, this time it should reach 80% to 100%.
  • Once installation is complete, a Reboot prompt will appear.

It took me six hours to research, attempt the installation, and ultimately fail. I hope that by reading this, your issue will be quickly resolved.
