Just checking in here. I have not done any Google services update and Gmail and Maps are working perfectly for me!!

I am running Bajarom 9.1. Flashed clean with Bobcats theme, wanam and xuimods working.

I flashed with ss 3.65 and always wipe dalvik and cache before flashing these inverts. I also like to flash these one at a time. Sometimes multiple zips at once causes issues.

No other mods or market apps effecting the system files.

I have found that posting what phone you have, network, version of jellybean or kit kat, the way you flashed it and what rom your running is very helpful for troubleshooting. Also post what version of the app that you flashed. Maps has multiple versions so if you flash the wrong one it wont work correctly.

I have every ( and I mean EVERY) inverted app Gun and the team has done on my phone without a single fc. Yes, there is an occasional renaming of the apks or even deleting apks before flashing but all of these apps have been tested (by an incredible team of testers), tweaked and tested again. Did I mention that these are thoroughly tested before Gun posted them! I am convinced that the Bear doesnt even sleep! :p

Post as much information as you can to help troubleshooting. Dont just post "these arent working". Its not fair to the developer or the team. Most of the time its user error if these dont flash correctly.

Btw. . Beautiful as always Gun! Donation sent!!

I haven't had to do anything to mine either. It should just update on it's own (what mine did).

Anyway here is the play store link as well: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gms

I have a Verizon Note 3, rooted and running 4.3 MJE stock. All of Gun's inverted apps were working great until Google Play Services updated this morning, and my inverted Gmail started force closing. I tried both of Micmar's methods to swap out to Gun's GmsCore.apk (in /data and in /system) and Gmail is unfortunately still force closing.

Perhaps we're lucky, I'm unclear, as it seems to be affecting many.

The last time this happened (last week), I went into app manager and basically annihilated all manage space, updates, etc, rebooted, dealt with the constant no Play Store, Hangouts, Gmail, etc, then pushed the latest GmsCore into priv-app.

Then and only then, did I get out of it.

Google Play Services and Gmail Issue..

All,

I like most of you got the update to Google Play Services(GmsCore) yesterday.

My Gmail was functioning all day on all my devices(S3, S4, Note3, TabPro 8.4). then all a sudden last night my S4, stopped workign and gettign FC's like most of you.

I have been working the last few hours and Solved the problem on my S4. So I found a solution, but am now trying to replicate the solution for users to use.

So yes I found the issue and solved it on mine, without uninstalling Google Play Services Updates, pushing Google Play Services and changing permissions on it etc.

So I hopefully can develope a way that can be flashed or a set of instructions to follow to fix it...

Stay tuned...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] BACARDILIMON:
I have got to be honest. I updated thru playstore. The new services was a battery killer. Why is Google being dumb. I uninstalled and went back. Battery life back to normal. I have no idea what is going on. Your apps tho are great man. Ty

These look gorgeous. Just a few quick questions.

How are these running on jellybeans 6 if anyone has experience with them?

Just boot into safestrap, wipe caches and flash good?

If we want to revert back to stock do these need to be removed via titanium backup (or similar)?

Thanks to OP
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] micmars:
Stunning, aren't they?

All should work on your rom. I'd recommend, as the OP indicates, to make a backup prior to flashing.

I would suggest against the use of Titanium Backup for any system apps restore, including these.

Sent from my SM-N900P using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] FormeriPhoney:
I actually meant to use titanium backup to uninstall these since they are installed via zip and probably can not uninstall any other way
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] micmars:
I understand. Many tools allow you to remove system apps, including Titanium Backup.

I still recommend using your nandroid backup to uninstall. Each app is different, and using Titanium Backup or similar app for removal, especially for those with library files, can yield undesirable outcomes (can't take update from the play store, etc). .

Ultimately, you can accomplish what you want, and many are here to help if you hit a snag.

Micmars were you able to get gmail working with the new GPS? I tryed the steps above that Gun posted and when I finally booted up I was able to enter the themed gmail as before it would just fc. It would not sync tho and I had to uninstall it. Now when I restart my phone sometimes I get Google Play Services has stopped error three or four times and then all is ok. I may give it another try as the stock gmail is slowly blinding me. ?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] sshafranko:
So I tried again following Guns directions except this time right before I booted to recovery to flash Gmail I uninstalled the update to GPS. Booted up and bam the beauty was back. So I tried all the google apps to make sure all was good and maps would not run without updating GPS again. After I updated it Gmail Force Close again. I give up.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] micmars:

Well sort of. I got it to work but have to sacrifice maps to do it. Maps wont run on the old Play Service. I need maps so im back to stock Gmail. Although I didnt try flashing an older version of maps. That may just work. Ill give it a shot later.

just gmail and play store
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] the_original_teknikl:
Also... The steps above won't work... If u install gmail from the playstore... Then flash gmail from here... The flash will put gmail in system... So when you reboot... The one from the playstore will act as an update to what you just flashed and ur phone will still use the one from play store.

The issue with that is Google services will update again eventually and cause the fcs again.

Use a root explorer to move gmail to priv-app after flashing.

Use link2sd to CONVERT/integrate the Google services update into the system (user app).

Reboot.

Enjoy.

Use my steps above and you won't have to mess with it again.... Until gunthermic updates his gmail of course lol.

How would I go about uninstalling the market zip on kk4.4 ?

Sent from my SM-N900P using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LeftyGR:
I'll assume that you did not do a nandroid backup before flashing the zip...

First, before you do anything, do a nandroid backup incase something goes wrong. Second, Take the Phonesky.apk from the zip file of the rom you're running. Copy and paste into the same folder you found it inside the zip. I believe that it's the system/priv-app folder. Fix permissions. Reboot. Third, always backup before you make changes to a system file or app. You do NOT want to learn this habit the hard way!

I am at a loss like many other dev's. There is no one solutuon. I am on newest play services and all my inverts with nary an issue. My s4 did run into issues fc'ing.

If you want to try with me, I'd be glad to be another test dummy.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] micmars:
So true. I think it may come down to the order of things installed (which invert first?), one's device, the operating system and the rom.

I've gotten it to work every time, but each time I've encountered the force close problem. I've made Gmail the first inverted app I install, and for whatever reason, if I can get that running, it stays running (though I may have to rollback Google Play Services if I encounter a force close during installation of another inverted app).

For others, it works without issue, and still others, it seems as if nothing works.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] DevilDog512:
What is the point of posting this? Do you think that he's just waiting for you to whine before giving you a fix to "your gmail"? You want gmail? It's available for download at the play store. You can also access it online at www.gmail.com.

Not trying to be rude or pick on you. Just have seen a lot of complaints about stuff that is free around XDA lately. I've seen a couple of Devs leave over similar situations. I'm glad you clarified your statements, but for others who may come here to post complaints maybe will change their mind.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] DevilDog512:
This may fix your Gmail force close issue, it may not. So far it has been working flawlessly for me. It gave a few errors at first but hasn't done it since. Sign out by removing your Google account from phone. Remove your previous gmscore.apk. should be is system/priv-app. if it's auto updated it'll be in data/app. Push this to system/priv-app. Fix permissions (644). Reboot phone. Sign back into Google and hopefully it'll work for you. Thanks again for these apks and your hard work gunthermic.

This isn't the app from TBO so I'm putting it back up in the hopes that it may help.

---------- Post added at 11:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:10 AM ----------

Well considering Gunthermic is part of TBO didn't see it as a problem. Not like I'm taking credit for it. I specified where it came from. Furthermore, why would anyone want to download 177MB file just to pull a 6MB file out of it? If there is a single file of the gmscore available then I'm not aware of it and you can link to it and I can remove this. I'm just trying to help not bask in someone else's glory. If Gunthermic wants it removed it'll be gone ASAP. Until any of these things occurs I don't really see an issue. Thank you for your concern though. I definitely don't want to come off as kanging something and taking credit for it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LeftyGR:
Read their OP. Specifically the paragraph directly above the FAQ section.

And it's not that big. They have the GMSCore.apk as a stand alone flashable zip for this fix...

And I know your intentions are good. Just trying to make sure you're efforts are within the forum and tbo op guidelines.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] DevilDog512:
OK so I tried to find where I got this package from and can't. The updater script says PA Gapps Mini Modular but I couldn't find anything about ownership. I have no idea where I downloaded but it's 177.66MB zip file. I sent a PM to Gunthermic about this so maybe he can provide input. If you could post a link to what you're talking about or shoot me a PM so I can see if it's the same file we can end the confusion and get some results. If this helps even one person enjoy this incredibly themed Gmail app then it's all worth it. I know I for one can never go back to any other Gmail after this. Appreciate your help in the matter. I never thought gmscore would be proprietary to anyone other than Google. Which is open sourced. Whatever. Rules is rules and they were made for breaking. Haha. Later.

Finally!! Ive been using TBO apps since I purchased my note 2 and never thought to check their thread for a fix to GMSCore FC issue. Thanks boys. All working perfect now with TBO's GMS for KK.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] micmars:
Is that a themed GmsCore? Because weeks ago I found that apk on Android Police when it was first released, saved it to my SD card, renamed it, and have used and shared it ever since.

I'm unclear if that version of Google Play Services is anyone's particular solution.

If it's themed, then it's not the same one as I'm using, but the build numbers in the manifest are identical, as are the file sizes.

Check Gun's S3 thread for example, last post.

I'd further aver that if the apk is publicly available and it solves this issue for many, then giving it freely, as it was wrought freely, is both right and just.

Here's the one I've used and shared with all...
