Material would be even cooler? Any way to make that happen? It's still solid colors so should be smallish. ;) :cowboy:

Looks great, guys! Sorry, but I've been extremely busy the past few days. Haven't had much time to even keep up here, let alone work on the new GApps. However, based on the size of the new Google Play Services, I'd better get moving fast! The new GPs is about 8MB larger than the previous version!

Also, was thinking that maybe we should start a new thread for collaborating on the new GApps. Whadda ya think? That way we can keep traffic levels here a bit more manageable. If you think it's worth it, I'll start a new GApps Development thread for those who are interested in participating or requesting new features. However, there won't be any fancy OP. :laugh:
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
You the boss! :)

Edit: [MENTION=3219848]dotmaniac[/MENTION] your version hangs after I press the Next button on my N7'13 where the previous ones didn't. Any ideas?

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] cruelcage:
Thanks so much!

Nice GApps provider!
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] chewdaniel:
he made the packages before the 6.1 was released. and NONE OF THE PACKAGES include an updated Play Services. it's in a separate download called "Play Services/Play Games Updater". just be patient and wait or sideload it yourself

about SOKP KK444 on tab 2

Hello, I am french, so no perfect english !

I would like to install SOKP on my galaxy tab 2 7.0 3G [P31XX] :

The SOKP on android 4.4.4 seem to be better than 4.4.2. There is no "Not Working/Issues" section on 4.4.4 so I suppose all is OK

On the topic :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2704517

all likes to http://sonic-developers.com are wrong. So I need help.

In installation section you say :

Installation Procedure:

(A)If you are making a Fresh Installation(or Coming from any other rom other than SOKP) :

Boot Into Recovery Mode

Wipe Data,System,Cache,Dalvik

Flash provide latest SOKP ROM Zip

Again Wipe Cache and Dalvik

Reboot To System

Now again Reboot into Recovery Mode

Flash latest G-Apps

Wipe Cache and Dalvik....and Reboot To System.

.

Is it necessary to put G-Apps to have all SOKP functions ? Because I don't like google (big brother), so I use google apps only if necessary.

If it was possible to use a no commercial "apps market" (play store like) I would use it.

Thanks

Nikko

22 downloads and not a word of feedback. Surely there must be someone on Omni who is using Email?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] bgiesing:
It happens to me also, the quick fix is to just press back and then next again.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] UnitedOceanic:
It happens if you give notification access to an app.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] hlxanthus:
I have had both mine and dotmaniacs do that. It doesn't happen everytime though.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] bgiesing:
Thanks to [MENTION=4129069]hlxanthus[/MENTION] and some of my own stuff, we have got the the zip size decreased 8.5%! (Technical Details below!)

Download pa_gapps-config-20140917.zip

Techincal Details:

First, [MENTION=4129069]hlxanthus[/MENTION] managed to compress the Splash image even more. Second, I compressed the font PNGs. Thirdly, I chose a smaller Roboto TTF file, it is now Condensed Light. Finally, I have removed a lot of blank spaces, lines, and tabs!
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] bland.life:
I know about Accessibility service but never heard that Notification Access affects it.

On all CM11 installations the Theme service is given notification access by default, so its like saying CM11 won't work with hotword detection.

Nothing enabled in Accessibility for me.

Anyway I somehow managed to to get hotword detection to work on my N7 more consistently.

Apparently I need to get real close or speak as if I'm giving a presentation to everyone on the train.

Still not going too well on the N5.

Now I don't think I'll ever get those Android Wear watches as well.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] UnitedOceanic:
Theme engine is fine, but other apps can break it. Aviate did it for me. It happes with accebility and notification acces. Edit: can't find the links ATM. You could try booting to savemode and see if it works there (this is how I found out that aviate was the offender)
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] bland.life:
Thats Accessibility (Settings->Accessibility), not Notification Access (Setting->Security->Notification Access).

Any thought about how to give the option of running the remover from inside the config tool after the file is built? Also, any plans for consolidating it with your Vox-remover?

now pico mode is also there?? hahaha :p
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] MikeRL100:
I'm on OmniROM and can test this. I was busy all day yesterday. I will check it soon. What exactly have you changed besides replacing their one Exchange APK with a factory image one? Anything? I'll test it after my standard ROM and GAPPs update and a backup to be safe. Thanks to USB OTG and TWRP, before that I had no way to backup my whole install. This will take an hour or more. Then comes the testing.

They made changes, so what exactly does the new zip do that's special? Does it utilize stuff from the newest stock 4.4.4 factory images?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] bgiesing:
It isn't possible
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] motisu:

Nothing special over the old one, just the updated Email apk. Trying to prove there's no conflict on latest apk and latest Omni. :)

Well, here is yet another aroma package to create the .gapps-remove file to make use of the GApps Remover tool. I am not sure why [MENTION=3219848]dotmaniac[/MENTION]'s package freezes, as I have been over and over it and cannot find a fix without butchering his work. So I have slimmed down my earlier versions to the bones while keeping the holo theme intact. My last package was at 3.13mb and my newest one is at 730kb.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] SpasilliumNexus:
Since no one checked yet, I did a nandroid of my current setup with PA, wiped system, data, cache, dalvik, and installed Omni + PA GApps first, then rebooted to check the package name of Email (in which I already knew it would be com.android.email)

I then went back into recovery, installed Google email addon, wiped cache and dalvik, followed by a reboot. I checked the package name again and it still has the AOSP email. Just for reassurance, I checked for the Google version and it has the "Install" button instead of "Installed."

The only way I could get it installed properly so far is to either do that dirty hack or completely wiping the phone (except internal storage/sd card) and re-flashing.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
Ahhh so the issue was never that it didn't work, but that it had package name issues? Good to know. Thanks! That said, the same issue hasn't been a showstopper for Google Camera, so I don't see why it should block Email from having its own add-on module as well. :good:

Problem

Hello!

There is some problem for me. If i try to install GAPS after I flashed the ROM (i tried with many) my phone became lagy and it's freezing sometimes. If i don't install it, than everything is ok.

Anyone know what might be the problem?

Thanx in advance. ;)
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] rhen84:
What phone do you have?

Play Services can take up much RAM.

If you have small amount of RAM, this can be heavy for your phone.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] maksimus0021:
@TKruzze First of all, I want to thank you for your work! Thank you very much! :)

There is one question. I have Samsung Galaxy SL GT-I9003 / Nameless ROM (OS 4.4.4) / CWM v6.0.5.1. After each update nightly builds (OTA) I lost Play Market. I have to flash again Pico Gapps. I have previously used BaNkS Gapps such a problem after updating ROM was not.

This is as it should be or is it a mistake?

Sorry for my bad English. Regards...
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] kotegergo:
I have a Galaxy Nexus GSM free. 1GB free ram.

But it worked well with the stock ROM and also when i first flashed CM11 it worked .
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] JulianXhokaxhiu:
Is the game worh the candle?

If I just decide to use Pico package (which means only google services basically and play store), why should I use the "Play Services / Play Games Update Module Module" to update the play service? I mean, I have to download 84MB to just update maybe 20MB.

As a formal user of BaNkS Minimal Gapps, I was expecting that you refresh the whole packages that involves the play services, rather than using that module. Or at least, include a script to update to the latest play service once flashing from pico to the stock gapps package.

Just a suggestion. Thanks for all the effort you put it :)
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] rhen84:
Play Services / Play Games Update Module Module contains many versions of Play Services (for different screen resolutions) and install only the one you need.

It takes up only 8MB more space on your /system partition.

If you use this module, the Play Services update will not take space (20-30MB) from your /data partition as it would if you update it through the Play Store.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] hlxanthus:
To clarify this, to fix pico gapps so they installed the proper play services, [MENTION=2777334]TKruzze[/MENTION] would have to include all screen res versions of play services. That would increase the package size by like 60mbs . . because instead of having one version of play services you would need FIVE . . so he includes the last unified version that works on all device resolutions and if someone really wants the updated version in /system they can download the updater tool
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] akarol:
Anyone else getting crazy FCs on Google Play Services and Location Services after flashing the Pico version? I also tried flashing the updated tool immediately afterwards and it did not resolve this.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] Obscurax:
Did you try #6 from the FAQ?

It's working great here.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] akarol:
I already said I tried flashing the updater after flashing Pico without any luck.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] PunchUp:
He isn't talking about the updater. Read how to switch GApps package by wiping system (#6) in the FAQ section. Have you done that?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
Usable RAM on the GN is more like ~650mb, unless you're on a SuperRAM kernel, then it's up to ~715mb. Free is a whole other question. I range 20-240mb, depending on what I've been doing. ;)
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] hlxanthus:
[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] currently flashed latest jflte (Verizon galaxy s 4) omni ROM with latest stock gapps and used gapps remover (and of course my aroma file generator for it) and your google email flashable. As far as I can tell email is working perfectly. If I notice anything I will let you know.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
Great, thanks! I think it's like [MENTION=5083335]Spasticdroid[/MENTION] said, it'll install perfectly on a clean flash where you don't boot before the GApps go on, that way the packages.xml never sees the AOSP version and doesn't get screwed up. Even if it does get the package name screwed when you do it any other way it still works, and I think that's the important thing.

Again, if I'm not mistaken it's same deal as Google Camera, so I think [MENTION=2777334]TKruzze[/MENTION] can safely move to wide beta the module again with that minor caveat. :)
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] akarol:
Did all of that and still persists. The FCs appear right upon boot and then sporadically throughout the day.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] Uncle Lizard:
I get the exchange services force closing on boot and sporadically throughout the day also.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] andyjg247:
I think I get this from the new services. Try maybe disabling it (which I think uninstalls the update) and then reboot re-enable . (I did cache cleaning etc but not sure if that was needed). This fixed it for me.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] Yeti47:
Have you cleared data from google services framework, google play services and google play store then rebooted? Often fixes these kind of issues. TB is an easy way to clear data.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] drewski_1:
I just tried this on my phone and am getting Email Force Closes when I try to launch it and then keeps force closing every few seconds after

- Razr Maxx

- Carbon 4.4.4 20140915

I tried clearing data / cache for Email & Exchange, but didn't help . . . though there was 12KB of cache that didn't go away . . .

I looked for the recovery log, but there was only one and it looks like it's from when I restored my backup to get email working again :(

Are you using the Factory Image Exchange too?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
Hmm, I'm currently using the L factory image Exchange on Carbon for GN (latest is 0908). I'll downgrade Exchange to see if it makes a difference.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] Renton91:
I tried in this way but didn't work :/

Other suggestions?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
Even downgrading on-the-fly made no difference for me on Carbon maguro. Works perfectly. Did you install with a clean wipe or over top of the ROM Email? Can you check that the package name is correct in App Info?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] drewski_1:
I installed overtop of the ROM Email.

I've already gone back to the ROM email, but I do remember that the Email version was 6.3 when I was trying to clear cache in Settings->App. I can't remember about Exchange

I can try it again and get the Recovery Log and verify the packages
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
When it's messed up like we were talking about it only shows in App Info (and even then, only the package name, version number should be fine) because packages.xml gets screwy. Any chance you could Nandroid and see if a) the package name was an issue for you, and b) you run into any problems on a fresh install?

Making a package initially only install on a fresh install sounds like something we could implement if it wasn't just a random one-off issue on your setup.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] hlxanthus:
[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] I did a full clean wipe and installed everything in one fell swoop (7packages in all haha). But I can say at least for me email works flawlessly
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] drewski_1:
Email:

- com.android.email

- 6.3-1218562

Exchange:

- com.google.android.exchange

- 6.2-1227136

what's "Fresh"? wipe System or full Factory Reset?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
Okay, good info. So it does have the package name issue. Good to know. Could contribute to the issues you were seeing, though for some it continues to work anyway.

I meant wipe system, cache and data without wiping /data/media. That's a "factory reset" in custom recovery, but I try not to use that term since originally factory reset meant wiping all of internal storage, and you don't need to do that. :) :good:

The key will be to flash ROM, then GApps and then modules without booting in between. Then boot and let me know if the package naming issue is resolved, and it all works, which I think it will. Meanwhile, I'm hatching a plan to block an install unless /data is roughly empty (indicating a fresh wipe). Could be used for Keyboard, Camera and Email to avoid a lot of the stupid bull**** we see in here about them on a regular basis. ;) :cowboy:

Thoughts [MENTION=2777334]TKruzze[/MENTION]?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] akenis:
<br />

<br />

Got a clean flash recently and shortly thereafter I was getting "Sorry, Google Now has Stopped" again. <br />

<br />

I fixed once before by clearing data for Search, but that clears the launcher as well. Tried installing another offline language....and it works!<br />

<br />

English is listed as preinstalled with no option to delete. The new Australian English can be deleted.<br />

<br />

Any way to delete and reinstall English? Does it come with PA GApps?<br/>

---------- Post added at 06:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ----------

Sorry...that was on Omni on a Note. On my stock Nexus 7, I can delete the offline English. But that option is not available with Omni/PA on my Note.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
To be honest, this is really a back-burner issue for me. It looks we'd have all the same complaints I had the first time I introduced the addon. While I know the Google keyboard issues appear to be similar, I don't think the Google Camera problems falls into the same category.

My main focus right now is trying to find the time to get the new GApps packages completed and introduced in the next 2 weeks. I have a vacation coming up around the first of the month and when I return, the introduction of Android 'L' will likely be upon us. When that happens, things will really be chaotic around here as we try and build a completely new, stable GApps package

However, if you could design the addon to only work on a clean install, I would agree that should make the addon problem free. At that point, I'd be willing to add it back to the list.

Sorry, I couldn't be more supportive. It's just that my time is so limited right now, I don't want to stretch myself further than I'm able to deliver. This past week has been crazy for me.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] PunchUp:
I think this is sensible. I won't mind downloading more, but as you said there definitely will be more complaints
