Google Play services 8.1.02 messed up my phone - can't roll back

Hi everyone,

I updated my Google Play Services to the file discussed here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/08...down-download/

It completely messed up my phone and google play services keep crashing. I've tried rolling it back to factory (settings>apps) but one of my device administrators keeps preventing me from doing so - Android Device Manager. I keep trying to deactivate as an admin to no avail - I keep tapping "deactivate" and nothing happens.

I'm totally stuck.

Hopefully this is an easy fix...?

An invitation to members to create a "Roll up Guide"/"All files"/"All How-tos" thread

As the title states, it is often a good idea for someone to create a thread that will be the "go-to" place for ROM info and download links. rooting guide links, Recovery links and all the other useful tidbits that both new and seasoned owners would find useful.

Whomever does this must be able to keep it reasonably up to date - there's nothing worse than stale info! In time, ownership of the thread can be transferred to someone else if required.

The thread will be stickied, of course... a good example of the kind of thing can be found HERE

This thread (this one) will self-destruct once something is in place.

We look forward to something emerging!
