TEST:

ADVANCED FEATURES & OPTIONS

The features outlined below are COMPLETELY OPTIONAL and designed to allow advanced users the ability to modify the default behavior of the GApps installers. Without the use of these options, the installers will function exactly as outlined in Post #1 above.

To modify the default behavior of the GApps installer, create a text file called .gapps-config or gapps-config.txt (.gapps-config will take precedence) and place it in the same folder as the GApps zip or in /sdcard/PA-GApps (zip folder will take precedence). Once you've created the gapps-config file, simply type in the Key Word options you want from the lists below.

To perform a test installation, that will only simulate an install, add the Key Word Test to your gapps-config. The installer will perform all system space calculations and generate a detailed log pa_gapps_log.txt (in the same folder as your gapps-config), but WILL NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES to your device. This should be helpful for trying to find just the right combination of apps that will work with your particular device.

By default, the installer will generate Debug Logs - pa_gapps_debug_logs.tar.gz - a compressed file that contains a set of files to help the devs troubleshoot any problems you might experience with the install. This file can be easily attached to any post on XDA, making it easy for you to provide the devs important information to help troubleshoot any issues you're having. You will find pa_gapps_debug_logs.tar.gz in the same folder as your pa_gapps_log.txt. You may disable this feature by adding the Key Word NoDebug to your gapps-config.

You can use Presets with any GApps package. This allows you to transform any GApps package into one of its 'little brothers' by adding one of the following Key Words to your gapps-config. This will transform ALL INSTALLER BEHAVIOR (including default removals AND applications available for install) - effectively turning it into a new GApps package.

Valid Key Word options are:

FullGApps - To downsize the following package to Full Modular GApps. [Stock]

MiniGApps - To downsize any of the following packages to Mini Modular GApps. [Stock/Full]

MicroGApps - To downsize any of the following packages to Micro Modular GApps. [Stock/Full/Mini]

NanoGApps - To downsize any of the following packages to Nano Modular GApps. [Stock/Full/Mini/Micro]

PicoGApps - To downsize any of the following packages to Pico Modular GApps. [Stock/Full/Mini/Micro/Nano]​

[HIGHLIGHT]NOTE:[/HIGHLIGHT] ALL BEHAVIOR OF THE INSTALLER WILL BE TRANSFORMED TO THE NEW PRESET, including default removals AND applications available for install.

You can choose either the apps you WANT installed (called an Include Install) or the apps you DON'T WANT installed (default behavior - called an Exclude Install). To select ONLY the apps you WANT installed, add the Key Word Include to your gapps-config file. The installer will now install ONLY THOSE APPS you have listed in your gapps-config. (Since the default behavior is an Exclude install, it is not necessary to add Exclude to your gapps-config). Stock/AOSP removals (see below) function the same whether you're doing an Include or Exclude Install.

Type the application Key Word (name) you want to Exclude/Include inside your gapps-config file.

The information below pertains ONLY to Google Stock GApps packages.

To bypass the default removal of the Stock/AOSP apps (listed below) when using Google Stock GApps, type the Key Word option preceded by a '+' as shown below:

+Browser - To bypass the automatic removal of Stock/AOSP Browser [Stock ONLY]

+Email - To bypass the automatic removal of Stock/AOSP Email Application [Stock ONLY]

+Gallery - To bypass the automatic removal of Stock/AOSP Gallery Application [Stock ONLY]

+Launcher - To bypass the automatic removal of Stock/AOSP Launcher(s) [Stock ONLY]

+MMS - To bypass the automatic removal of Stock/AOSP SMS Application [Stock ONLY]

+PicoTTS - To bypass the automatic removal of the Stock/AOSP PicoTTS app [Stock ONLY]

NOTE: The installer will automatically NOT remove the Stock/AOSP application if its Google counterpart is NOT being installed. For example, if you are NOT installing Hangouts or Messenger, then the Stock MMS app will NOT automatically be removed (although you can still force its removal by adding it to your gapps-config). The same is true for Google Camera|Stock Camera, Gmail|Stock Email, Google Exchange Services|Stock Exchange Services, Google Keyboard|Stock Keyboard, Google+(Photos)|Stock Gallery, Google Now Launcher|Stock Launcher, GoogleTTS|PicoTTS, and Google Calendar|Stock Calendar.​

You can add notes or comments to your gapps-config using a #. Anything following a # will be ignored until the end of that line.

For example:

The line below would be completely ignored

# Exclude Search

While the line below would process the first Search Key Word (since it appeared BEFORE the '#')

Search # Exclude Search​

"Protection from Stupidity" is built into the GApps Installer. To prevent you from accidentally leaving yourself with no keyboard, Launcher, or MMS app when you start your device, the installer WILL NOT ALLOW you to remove the Stock/AOSP Keyboard, Launcher, or MMS app if you are not also installing a Google version of these apps. You can, however, override this protection by adding the Key Word Override to your gapps-config. Be very careful when using this option and make certain you have a replacement app already installed on your device before using this option.

[HIGHLIGHT]Note:[/HIGHLIGHT] Case, order, spaces, or using separate lines does not matter when using gapps-config.
