I tried running Samsung Galaxy S4 4.3 and it won’t let me do google play because it says the browser is no longer supported. I tried running S4 4.4 and S5 4.4, but now there’s a different problem. I can run google play, but not cash of clans. It says my device isn’t supported. For some reason, google play thinks I’m running a Verizon Wireless Casio C8114G. Help me, please.
How do it register a device that doesn’t actually exist with google play so I can play clash of clans?
Hi there, I can’t find Clash Of Clans on the Google Play store. Everything else works perfectly though.
Can you try to download it on Google? There are lots of apk file there!
I have the same issue, says that device is incompatible….
Did you try to download another version of game on Google buddy?
No compatible to your device. I did everything from the instructions and in the end I got that.
Please try to download Clash of Clans via other place on Google buddy!
Not working :/

Everytime I download gapps-kk-20130813-signed.zip my MAC changes it to gapps-kk-20130813-signed.zip.download and it is no longer a .zip how do I prevent this?
Hi,
You can’t rename it?
Hey man, I succeeded in downloading the Google Play Store but I can’t find COC on it. I tried to find it on Google but it says that the device is incompatable with the app. Any help?
What is your device name buddy?
Can you download the apk file from somewhere else?
I’ve downloaded the latest version and it says it is incompatable. I’ve downloaded the previous versions and it forces me to update the app, but I cannot.

Is there a way to play a village saved in Game Centre (iOS) this way? Or is this method only available for villages saved on Google accounts?
Of course. After installing, you can use your Google account to load your village mate!
Nono, I play CoC on an iPhone, so Game centre safeguards my progress, not Google. Am I still able to play my account from my iPhone on my Mac?
Of course,
You can follow this tutorial to move your account from Apple ID to your Google ID: http://cocland.com/tutorials/move-clash-clans-ios-android-vice-versa
Thanks man! Last question, is it possible to use xmod if I play CoC on my computer? I use a Mac. Thanks!
Hello mate,
I am so sorry. Xmodgames doesn’t support PC/Mac :(.
Could you provide a download link for Root Explorer please? I’m stuck at step 10 because that pop-up won’t come up 🙁
Hello, This has worked for me for several months but yesterday (after about a minute of play time) I started to get an “Unfortunately, Clash of Clans has stopped” error. I get kicked out of the program each time I try to play. Any suggestions?? Thank you.
Hey RB,
Did you try to install another Android version?
No not yet. I will give that a try.
This happened to me too. I tried downloading it again but I still get this error. It’s weird because Clash Royale works fine.
Since a few days, without changing anything, CoC just keeps crashing. Is anybody else experiencing this? I tried every solution listed below but nothing seems to work 🙁
I think a lot of people are having this issue. 🙁
Yeah, after 1 minute of gameplay, I get an error saying Clash of Clans has stopped.
In addition, I can’t even update google apps anymore
Will Potter, any updates on the issue? Thanks in advance 🙂
I am contacting the Genymotion support. Let’s see If they have any solution for this. I am so sorry dude!
Hey guys!
Although I haven’t found a solution for fixing genymotion, I’ve recently found out that bluestacks is now available for mac! It’s much more simpler to set up and clash of clans is working for me on it! Here’s the download link, http://www.bluestacks.com/.
I downloaded a different device on genymotion and it seems to be good now. I downloaded bluestacks too and it works nice, thanks!
Thank you very much for sharing this Harit!
