Question about these packages - is there a reason Im always prompted to update Google Play Services after first boot? The Play Store version is dated 5/19, what is in these packages?

I just downloaded and flashed (along with Mahdi ROM for my VS980) the 6/3 mini modular package and was prompted to update Play Services.

Is there a way to inject the latest Play Services into the flashable zip before flashing it?

Thanks.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] spdrosin:
Having this issue:

When I am trying to setup my Google account, sms with 6-digit confirmation code is not received (my signal is ok). In the same time in notification bar Hangouts is asking to Update Google Services in order to work, but when I click on it, it prompts me again to same proccedure with the Google account setup, but the SMS cannot be received anyway. First time facing it.

Installed Stock Gapps immediately after Purity. Fully wiped too.

Cannot setup/use my phone. Never faced something like this before. Any ideas/help?

Edit: I send an sms to myphone from another device, but Hangouts cannot receive it.

My signal is ok, I can make calls.

So the problem is on Hangouts/Google Services Update which I think it should be done automatically via Wi-Fi/Mobile Network.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TheDannemand:
Go to your Google account with a web browser on a pc or Mac, and under Security (where you enabled 2-step verification) locate Backup Codes and enter one of those on the phone.

You won't be able to receive SMS from Google until the phone is up and running. Google has some brilliant coders, but this is way too trivial an issue for them to consider :rolleyes:
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] spdrosin:
Thank you so much mate. Finally I made my phone work. But can you please explain? Is this "issue" something new? I 've been flashing custom roms after full wipes for such a long time. First time Google's 2-step confirmation "worked" like that. While setting up my phone, Google Services were always auto updated, Hangouts was ok and 6digit code was on time without need of pc.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TheDannemand:
Since Hangouts (which is needed in order to receive SMS) now depends on the latest Google Play Services to be downloaded from Play Store (to which you're not yet logged in) Google created a catch 22. It would appear they forgot to test this with 2-step verification. There's always the option of having the code sent to email -- or those Backup Codes.

I know I've seen it once before after a factory restore or a new install, but I am pretty sure it wasn't on Nexus 5 (where I experienced it myself after the 4.4.3 update yesterday).
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] spdrosin:
Ok mate. Thank you so much for the explanation. I was so close to throw my N5 from the balcony yesterday.

Hey, Question about the GAPPS Remover -

I installed the Mini modular package and I can't uninstall any of these app with TiBa,

cuz they just reinstall after reboot.

Is this my solution?

Do I need to flash this right after flashing the GAPPS package and then I'll able to uninstall them?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] shawnbrennan55:
See Post #8. Create your .gapps-remove file with the list of apps you want uninstalled. After flashing the GApps zip, flash the removal zip.

Removing AOSP camera using GApps Remover

I've checked the script (version 20140531) and the AOSP camera app doesn't appear in the removable packages list.

On the other hand, when installing the stock package, the AOSP camera is removed.

Would it be possible to add this package to the remover script?

Thanks!
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
I'm not familar with your device's system partition size, but you could ask in your ROM's forum or download whatever one looks best to you along with the Micro or Mini packages. Then, if the larger package doesn't work due to its size, flash the Mini or Micro package and you should be good to go.

The reason I provide stock/AOSP Launcher, Browser, SMS App, Email, and Pico TTS removal options is that our GApps packages include Google alternatives for each of these apps. It's assumed that by removing one or more of these that you're making a choice to use the Google alternative included in our GApps. When you install a GApps package or addon for the Google Camera or Google Keyboard the stock/AOSP versions of these are removed automatically because they MUST be removed in order for the Google versions to function properly.

If I were to add the option for removing the stock/AOSP camera or keyboard, that would mean you'd have NO camera or keyboard installed on your device after a clean install. That, clearly, doesn't make sense to me.

Is it just me or Picasa Sync in the Gallery App doesn't work in the Mini Modular package?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TheDannemand:
Me too. I have not been able to make Picasa sync work with any CM10 or CM11 ROM with any Gapps package. I think I read it required some libs or a version of Gallery that is only included with stock ROM. Indeed it works with stock ROM on my N5. I've found several professed solutions (including here in XDA) but none of them have worked for me.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] AbhishekS:
Not really. I have gapps package (not from PA) with which Picasa Sync works fine
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TheDannemand:
That's great. And which Gapps is it then?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] AbhishekS:
I don't remember. I gues Banks GApps, but not sure.

I'll upload it for you within a few hours. :)
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] drewski_1:
Mini modular doesn't replace your ROMs Gallery, just Stock package.

There a mod called (iirc) Google Gallery 1.6 in the N7(2012) forum that adds a Picasa sync gallery. I've used it on several non N7 devices (like the Xoom I'm typing on) AOK
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] AbhishekS:
Then which version of PA GApps replaces the Gallery too?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] drewski_1:
I believe just the Stock package replaces the Gallery. You might be able to extract the Gallery apk and add to the Mini Modular zip, but not sure if other library files are needed.

This is the mod i've used to add Picasa sync gallery. It also replaces the Camera so you may need to flash the Google Camera module afterwards, if you're using that.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] chewdaniel:
CM11 here and Stock does not replace the Gallery2.apk
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] drewski_1:
this is from the OP. depends on what device you have.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
Clean install will likely fix your issue. Everyone who has reported keyboard issues reports back that a clean install fixed their problems. It's not an issue with these GApps or problem reports would be widespread.

The Google Gallery is only available in Google Stock GApps and will install automatically on Nexus devices only. See below (from the Advanced Options section) to force the install on your non-Nexus device.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] chewdaniel:
ahh yes. just remembered about that. for a while i got confused with the Photos app (G+) my bad

[MENTION=2777334]TKruzze[/MENTION] thank you sir! Just in time for a new Mahdi build. (relax guys, not yet ;))
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TheDannemand:
Thanks a lot. I believe I tried that one a few months ago (or one named exactly that) and it did not bring any Picasa sync features, but I'll definitely give it another try next time I update the ROM.

Thank you. Yes, I remember reading that last time I dug into this. Unfortunately stock Gapps will not fit on this device (Nook HD+). Also, when I read that, it wasn't clear to me what to choose for installing this on a non-Nexus device. Seeing that it was a common problem (not here, in other threads) I decided to just leave it alone and use JustPictures instead.

Edit: Inspecting the Gapps log, I may be able to squeeze stock Gapps in after all. I don't need all that, but if it lets me get Picasa sync I may go for it.

Thanks again.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] Rapier:
If you update via play store, updates will go to /data and you'll have also the original in /system. If you flash updated gapps package you'll have the updated gapps only in /system so they won't take space on /data partition

Or update via Play Store and then use an app such as Link2SD to "integrate update into system" and free up your user space.

Hi all

I am having an issue with my screen not turning on when with incoming calls - thus I cannot answer them. Historically the setting to make this happen was in the dialer settings - but it is no longer there. Has it moved somewhere else? Is there another workable solution?

Thanks

manual says "/sdcard/ and that is in internal, but when I flash gapps I do it with the ROM flashing therefore internal memory is deleted.. Or After flashing ROM I should boot my phone, then put remover in to internal..?

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] shawnbrennan55:
Sdcard should not be wiped when flashing a ROM. You just need to wipe cache, dalvik, data, and system. The data partition can be left alone if you are simply updating to a new nightly build of the same ROM. The file name needs to be ".gapps-remove" without the ".txt" extension.

I have a request, I know you're busy but thought I'd ask anyway.

Your gapps remover is awesome.

I have mentioned before how thumb2 code crashes/fc's my legacy device (and any other armv6.)

The only thumb2 bit of gapps that can't be stripped now with your remover is libjni_latinime.so, which kills my custom aosp keyboard dead as a doornail, and causes aggressive fc's until manually deleted from system/lib (unless the zip is cracked open and modified... which I dislike and the gapps remover mostly obviates the need for.)

If you could add an option to not install libjni_latinime.so that would be awesome, and much appreciated. I can send users of my legacy device over here for current 4.4.3 gapps, but they're not all savvy enough to be editing zips, and I'd hate to see any more complaining about nonfunction when it's not your fault that legacy devices aren't fully google-compatible anymore.

You're way overthinking this. Create the file EXACTLY as shown in the help (no txt extension. You might also read FAQ #3

If you had linked your ROM (as requested on the OP) we might have been able to answer. However since we don't know what your ROM contains, it'd be just a guess.

It does on my devices, immediately after I reboot. Not to worry, though. Soon, these GApps will be able to flash the proper GMS automatically for you.

None of the issues above could possibly be caused by these GApps. GApps have NOTHING to do with your WiFi, Mobile data, or your phone app. You should direct these problems to your ROM dev. The ROM is where all this stuff comes from. However, if you flashed a 4.4.3 package on a 4.4.2 ROM, that would be another story, but I did warn y'all.

First of all, what GApps package are you referrring to? libjni_latinime.so is actually different between the Stock and Modular packages.

I'm extremely reluctant to make this change as removing this will cause issues for 99.9% of the people who try it. I realize it may help you, but the problems it would create for me wouldn't be worth it.

You were given incorrect advice. PA had not released a 4.4.3 ROM when you posted your question. One is likely to be released soon, though.
