[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
At this point Google Gallery will remain in the package since there does not appear to be any conflict with the new Google Camera. The factory images for Google's Nexus flagship device (currently the Nexus 5) has always been the guiding philosophy for our Google Stock GApps. While it apears to be virtually certain that Google Gallery's days are numbered, as long as they are part of the Nexus factory image, they will remain in GApps.

Don't forget, if you don't want Google Gallery on your Nexus device, you can always use '.forcenogallery' to bypass its installation.

All my past experience has shown problems when multiple camera apps are installed in the system partition. If that changes, I might make it an option to keep both, but the default behavior will always be to replace the stock/AOSP app.

Whatever you want to do should work. You can install from Play Store or flash the Photosphere addon. Installing from the Play Store may give you the option to keep your original camera. My only recommendatiion would be to NOT use Titanium Backup to integrate the Play Store version into the system partition (see FAQ for more details).

Not a GApps issue. You can try clearing the cache/data of the offending app, but a Clean Install would be almost guaranteed to fix this issue.

flashing the PA new google camera addon module, does not permit to upgrade / install the google camera from play store, it says that is not possible because of a wrong signature, then if i remove with root file explorer from /system/app and i try to install from market it says that application is already present, do someone know how to solve that? i'm on OmniROM
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] Duumke1:
I think performing an uninstall of the app instead of deleting it will probably solve the issue because related unnecessary stuff gets removed this way also.

I just installed the 4/17 stock gapps and CM11 4/18 nightly. Before I flashed I wiped android secure, dalvik cache, system, and cache (i.e. wiped everything except data, internal memory, and external SD card).

Everything seems to be working except there doesn't seem to be a photosphere option for the camera. Should that option be available on a Motorola Droid Razr Maxx (model xt912)?

Curiously when I look in the app store it says that Google Camera is NOT installed. If I open the camera app on my phone it is version 2.1.037, the same version available from the app store. Strange!

Update: I tried to install Google Camera from the app store. It downloads and says it is installing, but it just goes back to the app page where the only option is to install (i.e., no open or uninstall options).

Hi,

Is there an option to disable the free space check? I will update the gapps but the zip aborted - not enough space on /system.

Gesendet von meinem Desire HD mit Tapatalk
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
Think about what you're asking. Would you want your system to run out of space half-way through the install?

Use a smaller package.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] MarcusHD:
I have installed the mini gapps and I will update them. So it is enough space available but I can't update because the install script check the space with installed gapps but there will be overwritten. You know what I mean?

Gesendet von meinem Desire HD mit Tapatalk
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
The script takes overwriting into account. Remember, there are newer, larger apps in each release. Maybe it finally went over your max.

GApps get larger over time, despite TKruzze's best efforts. If you're on mini then you'll either have to switch to a less heavy ROM (doesn't put as much in system) to keep using it, or you'll have to start using micro.

At some point we'll all have to accept that we need to move to a smaller package.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] bigsupersquid:
I wish that were my only consideration. I run my /system off of ext4 on an SD card instead of an internal parition (the source code allows that by default now if you program it right) because my device only has a 165Mb system partition, so size doesn't matter to me.

My problem is my legacy hardware, can't handle thumb2 code. This last gapps release FCs things that the previous doesn't.

I have to accept that I can no longer use a full install of up-to-date gapps anymore on this hardware.

The drift to requiring G+ (immediate FC on an armv6) aside from the other thumb2 issues that Google has introduced over the last couple of years, are really shutting out us cheapskates.

Sorry for derailing the thread again, I just wanted to point out that the armv6 issues have worsened with the latest release. Not trying to explain how to strip 'em or anything.

Flashed the Google Camera module since I could not install the Google Camera from the Play Store. Works great but the camera cannot save images to external SD card. Has anyone been able to do this without manually moving the images?

If I'm understanding you correctly, you want to remove some of the Google apks that come with the gapps package. Right? Why don't you just delete them using Titanium Back Up after you install gapps?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] apatal:
Because Apollo is technically not an AOSP app but a CM one, I think so the gapps package does not make provisions for removing them since they are not found on all ROMs the way AOSP apps are. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] MikeRL100:
I don't think we should ever add apps that don't ship with Google factory images to this package. As nice as it sounds to add Chrome remote desktop, it would just be another thing I'd remove. It can be installed from the Play Store. If you don't have access you could look for an APK. But the OP could always make it into an addon module if he sees fit. Anyhow, a note to the OP again - I've already received another YouTube update. And I believe we have another updated build of Google Calendar rolling out. Also please let me know if alerting of recent updates is helpful, otherwise, I won't keep mentioning them. I just figure it may save the developer time. That way the rare chance that he misses something will be even more uncommon. And I don't think he's ever missed an update. My hope is reporting said updates may lower the work level. Just checking this thread to see what's coming means less Googling, doesn't it?

Speaking of remote desktop, I PM'd the OP from the APK thread under the Android Apps subforum here on XDA. I'll likely get an APK and post it there soon.

hi everyone.

i have a slight problem with Google search that comes in these gapps. yesterday i installed a fresh copy of cm11 on my galaxy note and then flashed the micro modular package.

the problem is whenever i plug in my headphones Google search starts. this is really annoying.

does this happen to anyone else?

also if i want to disable Google search it won't let me. the disable button is greyed out. also when i go to /system/app the Google search apk isn't there so i can't rename or delete it.

this is a nightmare. if anyone can help me out it's very appreciated. thanks.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
1) This is the same Google Search as any other GApps; they're official signed apks only.

2) You can freeze apps in Titanium Backup when the system doesn't allow you to disable them.

3) It's called Velvet, and it's under priv-app.

Ok.. stupid question:

If I flash the stock package once and then use titanium backup's market doctor, I should be able to get the gapps updates through the play store right?!

Thanks a lot!

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] apatal:
You should be able to update all your gapps via Play Store even without TB. I do that most of the time until I get a chance to download a new package. :)
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] AndyMez:
Thanks a lot for your answer.

I am running the latest beta of PA and had to run the market doctor to be able to get updates from the playstore.

Anyhow, what is the advantage of flashing the PA gapps versus getting the updates from the playstore?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] jorceshaman:
The fact they're in your system partition which leaves more room for other apps and media.

I cannot flash "stock" because of low space on system partition (actually flashing "Full" package leaves me with 150MB free so I should be able to flash "Stock" if I remove some apps I don't want and use (like Newsstand, Play Games)). I don't know how it calculates required free space

What about using "Convert to System App" option in Titanium Backup? Does it do that job completely right and moves the app and it's libs to /system or does it do some half job or trick?

I would really like to have GMail, G+, Drive,... on /system so I am exploring my options.

You don't have to. By wiping /system partition your rom and system apps get deleted. But your user apps, data/settings of user apps and even data/settings of system apps are stored in a different partition are save using this method.

Hi, I already have my Nexus running a ROM with the gapps the ROM provided me. I want to use PA Gapps, so my question is:

Can i install this Gapps package over my ROM and previous Gapps without doing any wipes or do i have to reinstall the ROM in order to install this package?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] OhDae-su:
Usually gapps are coming as an separated package from the ROM you're flashing. So you flashed a ROM (which one?) and afterwards a gapps package, right? To switch to PA ones you have to do the following using twrp:

-Wipe /system, /cache, /dalvik cache (all in advanced wipes)

-Flash your current ROM and PA gapps

-Reboot system

Settings you made, your user data etc. are safe on that process...so no worries about deleting anything accidentally.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
Without going through your ROM's GApps with a fine-tooth comb, it's difficult to say for certain whether this would work. My initial assumption would be that you'll have some problems. If the person who put the GApps in your ROM did not use Google's naming scheme for the Google apps, you'd have conflicts because you'd end up with multiple installs of the same app, which would cause issues. I am very careful to use the same naming scheme that Google used when they created the Nexus factory images.

I have reviewed the major GApps packages out there - BaNkS, Goo GApps, and a few others, and I've made certain our GApps can be installed over top of them without problems, but it would be impossible for me to do the same for every GApps package that currently exists.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] bluesteve3:
I see, I will just reinstall the ROM with PA Gapps package.

It's fairly easy to repartition with SafeStrap. Boot into SS recovery, backup your ROM slot, delete ROM slot, recreate ROM slot with larger system partition (default is 700 MB; I usually increase to 1 GB), restore backup of your ROM slot, wipe cache and dalvik (optional, but it can't hurt), reboot.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
<sigh> I'm thinking of going to weekly update releases on Fridays or Saturdays, especially since 3 of the last 4 weeks Google has released betas on Update Wednesday (or earlier in the week) and then released their fixed versions on Fridays.

No matter how small or large the update is, it takes me 90 minutes to 2 hours to prepare an update, run tests, upload to mirrors, prepare the change log, and update the thread. Not only that, I drive the PA team (and probably many of their users) crazy with multiple updates during the week because the PA OTA app seems to constantly show GApps updates available.

I am considering making one of my empty posts at the beginning of the thread an "Interim Release" post where I'd make interim releases available (with a minimal change log) and a single update host (probably AndroidFileHost) until the official release on Friday or Saturday. I'll probably do that with the Hangouts update tomorrow.

Of course, if there's a major release, like the Google Camera last week or a new factory image drops, I'd make an exception and release as soon as I have time. But for simple app updates, I'm probably going to wait or use my Interim Release idea.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] jorceshaman:
I'm all for just a weekly release but just some feedback... I think you should do it for Fridays because that would allow weekend flashers the most recent at the beginning of the weekend. You're awesome though and thank you for your hard work!
