Wipe system. Wipe cache. Wipe Dalvik. Wipe data. Then flash ROM, GApps & SuperSU.

Wipe both caches again. Reboot.

Hey guys.

I`m on latest CM11 (4.4.3) and using CM GApps.

But I want stock Google keybord instead of CM.

Can somebody help me, how to combine Full modular PA GApps(for example) with Google stock keybord.

Thanks in advance.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
I still have the problem on some ROMs where the app drawer spontaneously changes from 5x4 to 6x4 after reboots or launcher redraws, must be something weird the ROM does with dpi.

Anyway, easy fix is with Xposed GEL Settings module. Very handy and lets me lock it at 5x4. :)

I got the SMS into default SMS app, not into Hangouts... Your ROM doesn't comes with an SMS app?

Enviado desde mi SM-N9005 mediante Tapatalk
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] Cooptx:
I use the stock GApps pack that removes the SMS app and replaces it with Hangouts. The reason I do that is because I only use Hangouts and EvolveSMS and I didn't want to have to deal with Titanium Backup to remove the SMS app. It doesn't matter anymore. I logged in and it is all good. Big thanks to the GApps maintainer for his great work!
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] Nephilim:
Not worried about the appdrawer much, more concerned if I change the DPI to 280 that the homescreen grids will switch from 4 across to 5 across, that was an issue before.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
Calling all Shell Script Gurus

I decided to maybe take it a step further with the code below. This way if a non-standard (OR empty) dpi is returned then we'd read build.prop for a second attempt at arriving at the proper density. Does this make sense or is there a better way of doing it?

density=`getprop ro.sf.lcd_density`;

if [ $density -ne 160 ] && [ $density -ne 240 ] && [ $density -ne 320 ] && [ $density -ne 480 ]; then
density=`cat /system/build.prop | grep "$1=" | cut -d= -f2`;

I'd suggest maybe trying the recovery's /default.prop first though, since it would still be more accurate than the build.prop which the user might have edited. :good:
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
I'm going to try and release a new beta of the Updater later tonight. You might try the updated version which, hopefully, will address your issue.

I really don't have enough information here to tell you where to look, but it couldn't possibly be GApps related. Perhaps all the ROM's you've tried are all from the same base (CM?), which would explain the issue. It's not GApps related, though, that's for certain.

Obviously, the upcoming GApps packages will fix that, but this is really Google's problem, not mine. Any user starting with a fresh factory installer of Android 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 would have the same issue as the only included SMS app is hangouts.

You're right. Next BETA, the installer will copy the log file over whether the install is successful or not.

I've just checked with the Paranoid Android ROM team and they are aware of the FC issue on Chrome Browser and are working on a fix. This is not a GApps issue, though, else non-PA users would also be experiencing problems.

As to the Google Contacts Sync issue, there are reports all over the web of this happening. It's happening to Android 4.4.3 users whether they're on Stock or Custom ROM's. I'm monitoring the situation but the problem is definitely on Google's side of things. SEE HERE

The good news (sort of?) is that it appears to be random and sporadic.

As noted above, the only 4.4.3 issue that is widespread and unresolved is the sporadic Contact Sync problems that Google needs to address. 99.9% of all other problems are resolved with a Clean Flash - meaning Factory Reset, System Wipe and then installing ROM and GApps.

You might want to spend some time reading the OP. I put a lot of time and effort into providing complete and accurate information. Short Answer is no, Full Modular does not include the camera.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
This isn't a feature I use, but you'll find it within the Gallery app. Go to Settings and turn on 'Google photos sync'. If you don't see it, the Nexus 5 (Hammerhead) Google Gallery may not be compatible with your device. In that case you might re-flash with a different setting for .forcegallery

Thanks, that's definitely cleaner. I have also been, and plan to continue, using the Recovery settings first and only switch to build.prop in case of an empty or non-standard value for density.

I use the Google Authenticator app and keep it setup on both my tablet and phone. That way I always have access to the codes as long as I don't flash both devices at the same time. :)

Google Play Services/Games Update BETA4

First off, a HUGE 'THANK-YOU" to everyone who has shared their 'pa_update.log' from the first two betas. The information learned in viewing results from the wide array of devices has been invaluable in making this project better for everyone. If you previously had non-standard results from BETA 1 or 2, it would be great if you can flash BETA 4 and share your results, once again. Any and all information shared is appreciated​

As part of the upcoming new GApps packages, we will begin installing the proper Google Play Services for your device based on your device's screen dpi.

Using updated scripting techniques from the new upcoming GApps packages, I have created a flashable zip that will update Google Play Services and Play Games (only if installed) to the latest, proper version for your device. You can flash this whether you're using 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 packages.

Download Here: pa_gapps_playservices-games_update_BETA4-20140612-signed.zip

EDIT:Updated to RC1 READ HERE for complete details.

After flashing, the installer will copy a file (pa_update.log) to the

same folder as the zip¹

. It will contain details of the update. If you do decide to give this a try, I'd appreciate if you'd be willing to post your log here to make certain everything is working as planned. Below is an example of the install from my wife's hTC Sensation.

#End Update Log​

¹NOTE: If you sideload the zip from Recovery you will likely find 'pa_update.log' in /sdcard

A HUGE "Thank You" to @osm0sis for making this possible. From the scripting technique to the tricky methods of signing the zip, none of this would have been possible without his assistance. Thanks, also to @Chainfire for first discovering this new method of flashing zips and making the source code available to properly sign this new style of installer.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] MikeRL100:
I'm about to try the above as soon as the download completes. Then I will get to flashing. I'll also share the log file when complete. I have traditionally removed the included Play Games and Services and used a backed up APK but without restoring data. First I'll try and post the results of flashing now, and also when flashing from my typical ROM upgrade process via recovery. Here we go!

Results from installing over top of manually installed newer APKs:

Play Services upgraded, and I had the same version installed, but Play Games didn't. Perhaps for consistency you could make it so that despite me having the latest Play Games installed, your zip installs the APK regardless. Logs on their way.

Maybe don't "update" when current version is already the same.

No, it isn't Google's problem as Hangouts and Play Service version match on factory images and don't need a Play Service update before.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] MikeRL100:
You may want to stick around a bit, still. I observed that the script thought Play Games wasn't installed although I removed the bundled one completely and installed v1.6 as a system app. I'd suggest to change the script to detect the newer versions. The Play Services script installed, though. Mind you I had already uninstalled the bundled ones with Android Tuner and installed newer APKs as system apps. It'd also be nice since my folder is called "Flash able ZIPs" if you changed the location to the root of the SD Card by the stable version. That folder only contains stuff I flash and I would like to avoid logs being stored there. Plus all the rest of your scripts store logs in the root of the SD Card. Consistency.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
This one's on you. [emoji6] I'm only able to update PlayGames if you installed it from my GApps installer. If you sideloaded it and converted to a system app, I'd have no way to figure out what you named it.

Sent from my ΠΣΧỤŞ 7 ²°¹³ tablet
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] MikeRL100:
it's still named Google Play Games. And I believe I left the PackageName the same. Perhaps a more polite way for me to ask you would be to ask how your script detects if the apps are installed. The question remains, then why did it work with my sideloaded Play Services? Any way at all to deal with that, assuming I left the name alone? And also could you please move logging to the root of the SD Card?
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
It would have to be named PlayGames.apk, exactly as it is in the installer.

As to logging, far too many devices have non-standard locations for /sdcard. Besides, I think the same location as the zip is more intuitive. It's also something I wasn't able to do as an edify script.

Sent from my ΠΣΧỤŞ 7 ²°¹³ tablet
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] MikeRL100:
Oh so this is an improvement? I suppose I should just get used to it, then. But as for Play Games, you mean that name? As in the actual filename? That clears things up. But what if I don't like that log in that location? Anything I can do? Sorry that one text file is grinding my OCD gears. And finally thank you for your patience with all my questions.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TKruzze:
I acutally consider it a HUGE improvement. If you look back through this forum you'll probably find a hundred users who couldn't find the location of /sdcard on their device. However, most of them would probably know where they placed the zip.:laugh: One user reported that if you sideload the zip (from recovery) that the log ends up in /sdcard. Perhaps you could try installing that way. And, yes, this updater looks for '/system/app/PlayGames.apk' and updates it only if it finds it currently installed.

Keep in mind that this tool will be incorporated into the new GApps installer I'm working on. Gone will be the days of using multiple config files, a separate GApps Remover, and a GPs Updater. You'll flash one zip with one config file and you'll have ONLY the GApps you want installed. Plus, the overwhelming majority of users who currently flash without options will continue to receive their GApps as they do now. They won't have to change a thing. The big plus is that users who like to tweak their GApps package will be able to do so much easier and cleaner than we do today.

The config file for the upcoming new GApps can be placed in either the zip's folder or /sdcard (as GApps Remover currently allows). I should (no promises) be able to have the installer copy the log over to the same location as the config (if the user uses a config file), but the default will be to the zip folder.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] osm0sis:
[MENTION=2777334]TKruzze[/MENTION] Definitely. I know you're taking the getprop value from the recovery, but I meant it might also be worth reading the default.prop in the case that getprop doesn't work or have the value (older TWRP recoveries), but it is in default.prop. :)

Maybe like:

file_getprop() {
grep "^$2" "$1" | cut -d= -f2;
}

And like:

density=`getprop ro.sf.lcd_density`;

# If the density returned by Recovery is empty or non-standard, we'll read from default.prop instead
case $density in
160|240|320|480) ;;
*) density=`file_getprop /default.prop ro.sf.lcd_density`;;
esac;

# If the density from default.prop is still empty or non-standard, we'll read from build.prop instead
case $density in

Thank you for answering my questions. Better to ask relevant questions and get relevant answers though than to ask questions that have been answered in the middle of the thread or worse the OP. I suggest anyone with questions on the new Play Services and Games script examine the last few pages. Since you might learn or answer your own question.
[General Paranoid Android Discussion] TheDannemand:
FWIW, I much prefer having the log file and the config file in the same folder as the ZIP, and appreciate you sticking to that!

The current Gapps installer behaves a bit strange on Nook HD+ (ovation) with CM11 and CWM 6.0.4.6: On a clean install (complete wipe of data and internal /sdcard) it places the log in internal /sdcard (/data/media/0). Subsequently (unless internal /sdcard is wiped again) it places log files in /data/media (which requires root to be accessed). It never sees config files (.gapps-stock, .forcegallery etc) in the ZIP folder on the external SD (folder name CM11, no spaces), neither does it ever place logs there.

This was never a huge issue for me; but it would be great if everything can be in the ZIP folder on the external SD.

I'll try flashing the beta after I've made a nandroid Friday or Saturday.
