As long as you don't run it down to 0% and drain it completely, which is pretty hard to do, it should be fine. Li-ion batteries work in terms of charge cycles. You're going to shorten the battery's lifespan the same amount when you use up 100% worth of battery charge, whether it's by going from 100 straight down to 0 and back to 100, or charging and recharging constantly.

Hi all,

I'm getting stuck in fastboot after trying to flash a logo to replace the bootloader warning image (stupidly flashed a logo.bin instead of a a bmp).

I think if I flash a signed boot image I should be ok?

Thanks for the help...
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigCon:
Found one - sorted now.

I've attached it in case anyone needs it (this is from my razr i - bootloader unlocked and rooted, GB rom)...

How to ?

I've tried to flash this image with fastboot and with recovery, but it does not works, is there any other way to flash it ?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugrnm:
Hi everyone,

After flashing a new ROM for my Nexus7 (CM, PA, etc) I want to avoid installing the standard gapps zip with all the Google software, but instead I only want the Play store.

I have searched the XDA forums and I struggle to find anything that precisely solve this issue. It seems that the general consensus when it comes to minimal systems is to install everything first and only then remove the bloat either directly from the shell or via TB, sometimes proceeding with trial and error.

Is there any way, or anyone willing to detail the exact dependencies needed for the Play store apk to work when installed on its own?

Thanks!

What's the problem in manually deleting the unneeded Google apps that you are not going to use and live happily ever after?

Of vourse if you change ROMs often - that might be a trouble, but if you intend to stay with one and only ROM - then I guess it shouldn't be that hard, right?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugrnm:
Not so much of a problem in the sense that it is blocking me, there are however some points that motivate me in knowing how to do it properly, namely:

I have a general Interest in how the interdependencies between the OS and Google apps is actually working. I've been using GNU/Linux for more than 15 years and I grew the habit to like to know what I am installing on my machines.

Frequent ROM updates make manual removal of items quite inefficient. Maybe a backup app could help here but that feels clunky and has the risk to introduce quite some mess when the system receives major updates that would break the backup.

The time to go through manual removal though trial and error is possibly the same that it takes to start this thread, bump it and hopefully gather enough interests so that more people will benefit from it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Auke11:
I also reacted in other topic. Somehowe i could not react here but now it does.

Not my own idea, but it did work for me on my desire s. Open up the zip and read the next:

I have made a minimal install sufficient to get Contacts and Calendar sync + Google Play.

Then copy with a root explorer and set permissions to 644 of:

GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter

GoogleContactsSyncAdapter

GoogleLoginService

GoogleServicesFramework

Phonesky

Later installed as a regular apk Gmail2 and GenieWidget
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugrnm:
Thanks for the hint!

To get the Play store working I only had to install Phonesky, GoogleServicesFramework and GoogleLoginService.

Now I am trying to figure out what is needed to get the quick settings menu. The latter only appears when the gapps are installed.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethenexus:
Hi OP

Could you mention the details of how you got the store working? Eg, where did you download the service files from and where did you copy them in your phone.

Thanks

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
As instructed, you download the gapps zip, remove the unwanted apks, and then flash in recovery.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethenexus:
I have a PA 3.1 ROM that shows the quick settings without GApps. However, the settings don't appear using a swipe down or through the button in the navigation area. They appear specifically in the expanded desktop mode only. Not sure why, but it doesn't look like an issue related to GApps. Let me know if you were able to validate the link between GApps and quick settings though.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben H:
Hi OP

I had been wondering why I had not been able to get the quick settings (the tiles in the status bar) to appear.

Btw, I'm using Rootbox on my Galaxy S3 (GT-i9300).

Your comment above told me that something from was gapps missing, so I installed the full gapps package and the quick settings work.

I reset/wiped my phone for further testing...

Long story short, I discovered Google's Setup Wizard was the culprit. Once I had rebooted and completed Google's setup wizard my quick settings tiles started working. I have no idea why this affects the tiles :confused:

GoogleLoginService was required for SetupWizard. I removed both afterwards with no problems.

Sorry for bumping an old thread, I was searching for info on the play store when I found this thread. Doubt I would have found this info otherwise. :o
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugrnm:
Thanks for the bump, I gave up eventually, but what you found out is great. I'll give it a try!

These days I'm also trying to figure out how painful/feasible it would be to simply not use any of the gapps and just rely on alternative repos such as F-droid.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whitenight639:
Sorry to dig up old threads, hopefully one of you is still around,

I've put Cynogenmod on my xperia, but forgot to install google play, I installed it from an apk using the terminal but it crashes, obviously needs some other google services to work. I have a the google apps zip file but the app names are very different...

ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.apk

GalleryGoogle.apk

GenieWidget.apk

Gmail.apk

GoogleBackupTransport.apk

GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk

GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk

GoogleFeedback.apk

GoogleLoginService.apk

GooglePartnerSetup.apk

GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

GoogleServicesFramework.apk

GoogleTTS.apk

MarketUpdater.apk

MarketUploader.apk

NetworkLocation.apk

OneTimeInitializer.apk

SetupWizzard.apk

Talk.apk

Vending.apk

VoiceSearch.apk

I only want google Play and gmail, I have flashed Cyanogenmod mainly to "ungoogle" my phone but I do want an easy way to install new apps.

Any ideas on what the equivolent to Phonesky will be in the list above?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pastee:
Phonesky, GoogleServicesFramework and GoogleLoginService were enough for < cm 10.2

But with android 4.4 cm11 , it doesn't work anymore.

Stand Alone Play Store Installation

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, im just a newbie here but i just want to share my experience in installing playstore.apk and you're right. Its trial and error.

At 1st, i zip signed the playstore.apk and tried to install it in cwm recovery. Yes it was installed but when i reboot my system, it pops up a toast that playstore stopped. i pressed ok and it pops again everytime. 1st failure

2nd, i tried to put the playstore.apk directly in the device/system/priv-app folder then install it normally. it was installed again but when i reboot my system, it crashes again. 2nd failure.

then here is the 3rd and final one and i said to myself that if this will not work again, maybe playstore.apk isnt a stand alone app. so here is what i did. i put the playstore.apk file again in the device/system/priv-app folder and this time i renamed it as "Phonesky" just like in stock roms. i just leave it there exit the file explorer then reboot system. And suddenly, it works and till now, it still works. Maybe it was luck but i'm just sharing my experiences. Im not saying that it will work 100% but maybe give it a try then. But make sure that you already back up everything. Thanks and God bless.

Hi guys,

I have installed Cyanogen 12 on my Wiko Darkmoon do set myself free from Google and I am happy with that... But unfortunately I still need to used Google Calendar (because my wife does not want to change so far and we are using shared calendar big time).

I don't want to install gapps but I am ok to install the minimum apk to have Google calendar sync working on my phone. Based on what I red on that topic, I came to install (may be not in this order) :

GoogleServicesFramework.apk

GoogleLoginService.apk

GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk

Unfortunately, when trying to register a Google account, I get the following message (translated from French, maybe inaccurate sorry) : " Impossible to connect. A communication problem with Google servers occurred. Please try later." with a next button leading always to the same message.

I cannot figured out if something is missing neither if it is possible to do so. I used adb logcat to get some log but I am not familiar at all with it but maybe the answer is in this part :

[General Questions and Answers] Dan Law 001:
Hello, I have problem with adding a Google account to my MB860 running the custom 2.3.7 MRom. In fact, when I want to add a Google account in the setting in "Account and Sync", it asks me rather I aent to sign in an existing Google account or create a new Google account. As I already have one, I choose to simply sign in. After that, it asks me for the username of the Google account and the password. And here is the problem. OK, firstly, I enter the primary email address which is not the a Gmail email address (but I use it every time to sign into my account) in the Username box. Then, I enter my password (the one every time I sign into my account) in the password box. And finally, I tap Next and it says that the email address that I provided is not end with @gmail.com and that's mean that I must enter a email address end with @gmail.com. However, I do not think that I have that kind of email address since I only have the primary email address that I use to sign into the Google account and the one they accepted. Next, by curiosity, I check the "Account and Sync" section in my Jelly Bean phone, and what they asks for signing into a Google Account is totally different. In fact, they only asks you for the primary email address that you use to sign in and the password rather than a @gmail.com email address. What can I do?

WELCOME TO THE OFFICIAL VIPER X JB FAQ

The aim of this post is to answer the common questions related to VIPER X JB :good:

This is catered to the ever present, NEW BORN NOOB to the SEASONED SERIAL FLASHER :p

PS: I am not going to explain how to setup ADB and where to find HTC Sync drivers, there are TONS of threads and if you're really lazy, just GOOGLE IT!!!!!

Without further a doozie, lets get the FAQ on with things :highfive:

FAQ

Q: Sweep to Wake not working.

A: No custom (htc source)kernel for that yet.​

Q: Missing C in Clock/Weatherwidget

A: Known issue.. fixed in 3.3.3OTA​

Q: After installing OTA i cant go into recovery.

A: Remove OTA.zipp from SD sd/download/​

Q: Changing Fonts not working

A: Select mount system as read/write in Tweaks​

Q: Lag in Appdrawer

A: Disable transparency​

Q: OTA doesn't flash in Recovery

A: Try to use recommended TWRP recovery​

Q: Can I flash Viper X JB on my HOX

A: YES, provided you have a HOX with at least HBOOT 1.31 (1.36/1.39 RECOMMENDED)​

Q: How do I get HBOOT 1.31/1.36/1.39?

A: HBOOT 1.31/1.36/1.39 are UNFORTUNATELY CID dependant!!!!​

Q: CID you SAY?? What BLASPHEMY is this you speak OF????

A: It is your Customer ID, this is based on where you purchased your HOX (VodaFone, Car Warehouse, Crack Dealer, ETC ETC)

They are not universal and are not supplied by your local hook up and there is nothing Team Venom can do to change that.​

Q: How do I check my CID?

A: Use THIS simple app​

Q: My CID is among the privileged few what now???

A: Check THIS thread for the safest and easiest way to upgrade your HBOOT to ViperX JB compatiblity.

Once on the needed HBOOT, you may flash ViperX JB and ENJOY a REAL CUSTOM ROM​

Q: I used OMG SUPER MOD zip on ICS Viper, will it work on JB Viper.

A: NO, unless your developer has updated the MOD/APP for 3.14.401.31 base it wont work.

ViperX also has an extensively modified framework-res.apk and any mods that modify this apk WILL break VenomTweaks.​

Q: My battery drains fast/look my battery stats

A: If you want to discuss batterystats/usage (on custom kernels in the future) Go to Goku80,s thread​

NB: I will update this FAQ as time permits will more info related to questions regarding ViperX JB and ViperX ICS, this is as much as I am able to do tonight.​

Let BetterBatterystats collect enough info over 24 hrs without connect it to charger!!

When you not see something strange make a nandroid backup, do a full wipe, install kernel and Rom fresh without restoring any app and let it settle.

Then check over 24 hrs if it is still draining. When not it is for sure an app.
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
My original post said that it restarts randomly even when not doing anything. 3 times while it was just on the desk doing nothing in deep sleep. Hasn't happened since I uninstalled LINE, but just reinstalled it again to see if the restarts come back.
[HTC One X] rkuijpers:
Users that complain about fast battery drainage:

Google (Now) location service can be a true battery hog, due to checking your location all the time (hundred times or more per hour) so your HOX stays awake most of the time. Googling for answers brought me this: Google seems to have changed something in their location service, so it can/will check your location ridicoulous times per minute/hour for some time now. This depends on how easily Google can pinpoint your location through network.

Changed a few things to resolve this:

- disable Google Now;

- change clock on homescreen to a clock that doesn't contain weather (as this wil use the location service);

- change settings in Location so it will only use GPS to locate (disable Google locationservice and disable Location and Google Search);

This makes my HOX return to go into deep sleep as much as 90 percent of the time, when I'm not using my HOX.

Before, even without use my HOX was awake most of the time, resulting in fast battery drain.

You can easily check the deep sleep status of your phone with BetterBatteryStats, it's a free download on XDA.

Of course, this won't be a solution for everyone. If you want to use the location possibillities of your phone from network, this is no solution for you.

Just my 2 cents, works extremely well for me, try it and you'll see a vast improvement I'm sure! :highfive:
