CODM install stuck at 94% of 2.13 GB via Smart Tool / Play Store
While installing CODM through TAC's Play Store integration or via the Smart Tool's launch flow, the download progress bar reaches 94% of 2.13 GB and stops. The progress bar doesn't move forward; cancelling and retrying produces the same freeze at the same percentage. Reported framing:
"Instalando el CodM desde el playstore con la herramienta GamloopHub la instalación se clavó en 94% de 2,13 Gb, alguna idea que procede?"
"ya intenté de todo y nada, no pasa de 94% es raro, a nadie le pasó? es una instalación nueva de win y no tiene nada, ni programas ni nada"
Symptoms:
- Progress always stalls at exactly 94% (sometimes 93%, never 95%+).
- Total expected size is 2.13 GB — matches the CODM Global APK + initial OBB.
- Reproduces on a clean Windows install with no other software.
- Reinstalling TAC doesn't help.
- Same symptom occurs across LD Player community reports for CODM at "94% loading" — possibly shared CDN / endpoint problem.
Per WhyBeKing: "parece algo de red...recuerda que es la mierda de google que no va bien nunca...depende de pais y componente de ordenador." Network-side issue compounded by region-specific Google CDN routing.

Connect to a US VPN before retrying the install. The 94% mark corresponds to the OBB asset bundle download — that bundle is served from a regional CDN that fails handshake for some country/ISP combinations:
- Cancel the current install, close TAC.
- Connect to any reputable VPN with a US exit node (Cloudflare WARP works free).
- Reopen TAC, restart the install.
- The download should now reach 100%.
- After install completes, you can disconnect the VPN — gameplay doesn't need it.

Switch DNS to Cloudflare 1.1.1.1. Some ISPs (especially in MENA, parts of LATAM) silently throttle Google CDN endpoints. Cloudflare DNS bypasses ISP DNS rewrites:
- Install Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 or set DNS manually to 1.1.1.1 in Windows network settings.
- Restart TAC, restart the install.

Skip Play Store, install via APKPure. If region/DNS fixes don't help, install the CODM APK from a third-party mirror:
- On Windows, download the CODM Global APK from apkpure.com. The APK is ~80 MB; the OBB is 2 GB+ separately.
- Download the matching OBB file from APKPure or APKMirror.
- Drag the APK into the TAC window — installs the app stub.
- Use TAC's file manager to copy the OBB to
/Android/obb/com.activision.callofduty.shooter/. - Launch CODM — it skips the in-app download because the OBB is already in place.
solution #625
Clear Google Play Services cache inside TAC. Stale Play Services cache can stall downloads at fixed percentages:
- In TAC: 4 squares menu → Settings → Apps.
- Find "Google Play Services" → Clear cache + Clear data.
- Find "Google Play Store" → Clear cache + Clear data.
- Restart TAC, retry CODM install — re-sign in to Google when prompted.
solution #626
Verify you have enough Windows disk space. TAC's Android instance is a virtual disk on your Windows drive. Even though CODM is "only" 2.13 GB, TAC needs ~3-4 GB free on the Windows host (temp files + virtual disk expansion). Free up at least 10 GB on your C: drive, retry.
