Android: ADB update Google Play Services 'Failure'

Question

Trying to follow this Google+ Login tutorial.

---

Start application and I get this error

You need to update Google Play Services to use this application

• Pressing Update does not do anything.
• Ignoring this dialog and pressing Login crashes the application.

Using the terminal in Windows 8 to update the Play Services on my emulator,

adb install com.android.vending-20140218.apk ........
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DUPLICATE_PERMISSION perm=com.google.android.gms.permission.ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION pkg=com.google.android.gms]

adb install com.google.android.gms-20140218.apk .......
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DUPLICATE_PERMISSION perm=com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE pkg=com.android.vending]

I tried uninstalling both using adb uninstall and adb install -r but it just responds with

Failure

Emulator

Answer 1

I had the same issue: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DUPLICATE_PERMISSION ...

un-installing the app from the device and re-installing the app solved it.
