I found a solution thanks to @babo, had to change two lines based off of several contributions and i now have google play installed, i can share the script if you want plus you have to have opengapps 10 downloaded in the Downloads folder
Yes of course I want to have the script. ARM64 opengapps or just ARM?
Yes send the script to me please.
Had to make the script look for the open gapps in my download folder and delete this
Could you share entire script

Sorry could upload the file
try ‘sh’ instead of ‘./’
It should work, maybe u didn’t download the arm 64 version of opengapps, as i got it to work with my xa2 ultra on 4.1 using the arm 64 file
Should i share a dropbox link of the file?
Yes please. It looks like it won’t work with xperia 10 II.
Did u download the ARM 64 version of Opengapps nano?
Also delete or move the other opengapps files in the download folder
Yes opengapps 64 and still no luck. And script don’t work →
bash: ./install_opengapps.sh: not found
@Gouneesz the script “stuck” at the point where it should install an incompatible package (armv7hl).
That is why it works on XA2, but not in our Xperia 10ii!
Looks like we 're gonna have to do it manually! 
Ok. But I don’t know how. I don’t have any skills with linux…

The script doesn’t work for xperia 10 II because it needs the 64 vit version of lzip. Here is my modified script that works. Before running you also need to install unzip and rsync if not already installed using these commands in terminal:
devel-su pkcon install unzip
devel-su pkcon install rsync
Here’s the script:
#!/bin/sh
