Is there a way to customize the installation of slim gapps using a config file similar to the way pa-gapps used the config-gapps text file? It's nice to be able to install just what you want and nothing more (not a big Hangouts fan here, gave it a good week or 2 try but that dialer is awful imo). Not that big of a deal to disable apps you don't need but why have them on the device if they're not going to be used?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] oak:
Read the OP. The options are limitless. You can make your own gapps any way you like.

Roll-your-own for 5.1?

Forgive me if this is mentioned somewhere in this thread. There are more than 300 pages of messages, and I haven't had a chance to read through all of them.

Just a little while ago (April 4), I have downloaded and run your "Roll Your Own" utility, and I have build local copies of the gapps. It works great, and thank you for an excellent piece of work!

My question is this: the build system creates gapps zip files named Slim*.5.0.x.*.zip, and I'm wondering if these are 5.0 gapps or 5.1 gapps?

If they are for 5.0, is there somewhere where I can download a system for building 5.1-based gapps, to go with the latest 5.1 Slim ROM?

Thank you very much for any clarification any of you can provide.

For 5.1 change the slimlp_gapps branch from master to lp5.1 https://github.com/dankoman30/slimlp_gapps/tree/lp5.1?files=1

You are using the 5.0 branch :D
[General SlimRoms Discussion] oak:
You can use this to clone the 5.1 branch:

git clone -b lp5.1 https://github.com/dankoman30/slimlp_gapps/

Roll your own

It seems I am the only one that can't roll his own packages. I've been reading and trying almost everything with my knowledge since some time ago because I understand that 'everyone' can do it but I fail. I even create an account on Github and downloaded it to my PC. LOL

Sorry. Also as you see i'm not english speaker. Somebody can give me some light? Thank you all of you

EDIT: I downloaded the master zip file from GitHub, instead of clone it, to manage it with the GitHub aplication but I don't know how to work with it. I did that beacause I've tried to clone it first, but it doesn't make sense for me when sais to me to download the aplication to the PC repeatedly.

Now I'm thinking that all I have to do is download the master zip file of SlimGapps. Open it with Winrar (e.g.) modify the build.xml file and flash this entire zip in recovery will install my needs and generate a new custom zip file package for the next time ? Newbie here. Thank you for your patience.

Just updated to the latest version of 4.4 GApps and everything works great. Except for Hangouts. Try as I might, couldn't get it to work (FC on start; clear data or reboot doesn't help).

So next step I'm going to uninstall it using SlimSizer and then re-install it as a user app from the Play Store, see if that works

EDIT: yeah, that worked fine, and now everything is OK. it's not a huge inconvenience to remove 2 (optional) system apps and re-install them from the Playstore anyways.

i never had one, you're thinking of PA gapps.

you can, however, do what others have done and create your own micro package. here's a good example of someone ( [MENTION=4964524]raulx222[/MENTION] ) who did just that.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] likonvampire:

[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
yeah, my gapps are customized at build time rather than at install time, which saves on package size drastically.

Also delete any gapps backup script in system/add-on.d folder. This requires to mount system as rewritable and after deleting back to read only. Google for further details
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Natakranta:
Play Store FCs are caused by new Play Store which can't accept the fact you can install apps from other sources. Probably the overblown ego problem ;)

Anyway there's simple solution, go to Settings / Apps chose Play Store and clean cache and data. Reboot. FCs should be gone.

The problem comes back if you restore any app from Titanium later on. Play Store will go mental again. Just reapply the lobotomy on it with cache and data wipe.

And here's where I have a problem I can't work around. I refuse to update Tapatalk from some old version few months ago when display layout changed. I just can't stand the new look. So I always restore my titanium backup of that old version I'm used to and in Play Store Settings change: auto update apps to Never. I'm happy to go on with the updates manually and do them when I want and to which apps I want.

And here comes the vicious circle: I restore my old Tapatalk version from Titanium. Play Store goes mental after that and starts FCs show. I wipe it's cache and data and reboot. Play Store FCs are gone, but as it is on default settings it starts updating Tapatalk. Before I manage to accept Play terms and conditions, go to Play Store settings, it is already finishing Tapatalk update. When I uninstall it, the whole app is being uninstalled and not only the update. After I restore my old version from Titanium the whole FCs vicious circle begins.

SlimLP + Slim mini gapps Apr.06 clean flash on OPO.

OK. I've just figured out a work around. I must have been really tired last night I didn't come up to such simple solution. So Play Store, what you're going to do without internet? [emoji48]

The Answer to The Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything is: CLEAN FLASH.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] kantjer:
Just an idea. extract the Tapatalk apk with AppExtractor and install it after an update.

No idea if it works but worth a try.

EDIT: link update, linked the wrong app.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] HaTrED_:
Mate, why don't you give a go to latest tapatalk? It's has been improving a lot and, who knows, after try it again you're gonna change your mind! Just saying...

It's a lot faster!

It's a lot better!

And layout? Well, i think that's a matter of minutes using it... :p Then, there's no turning back!
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Natakranta:
Yeah, I noticed, the first one you linked wanted to extract all apps from my nandroid backup, tried and resulted with empty folder.

The second one you linked is extracting from currently installed apps, so it extracted the up to date Tapatalk. Either I try to get used to it or I'll start uninstalling, restoring, clearing cache and data, rebooting, installing game in the evening when back home.

I'll give it a day now. Only because I don't want to ruin my battery life stats for the day with rebooting.

I like to try new things but only when I'll gently encouraged to do so. Not when I'm being forced to. With the second one I'm going ballistic and irrational with efforts put just to keep resisting. That must be the anarchist part of of accountants soul trying to release some steam.

Unfortunately I notice the same pattern with my 3 years old daughter behaviour, but even knowing it out still doesn't make the parenting easier :D

The Answer to The Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything is: CLEAN FLASH.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] kantjer:
If you restore the old TapaTalk and the use AppExtrator, you have the old Tapa apk. That should then be easy to install after a next clean flash.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Natakranta:
Yes, I figured it out myself, but restoring old backup means Play Store FC and need to reboot which will make a gap in my battery stats run for today. I'll do it in the evening.

OCD, OCD.... :D

[General SlimRoms Discussion] kantjer:
Even worse it means TiBu is getting more or less worthless (at least for the apps backup/restore part)

I hope they find a solution fast.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Natakranta:
I was wandering if TiBu dev can do anything about it.

It still works for clean flash. I restored all my user apps with Titanium. It's just the need to clean cache and data of Play Store afterwards and reboot to get rid of the FCs. Not a huge inconvenience for clean flash after which I do many reboots to set all things up.

But appears real pain in the arse for cases like mine when user wants to restore a backup of an app from before a certain Play Store update.

I'm not ready to get used to the new layout either. I think I'm using v4.9.5. Here's what I do.

For your information, just in case, in one of the latest versions of Titanium Backup there was a bug that was causing FCs on Google Play Services.

I am getting google app has stopped error from time to time on my current setup. The ROM runs but the error comes up from time to time..

I have yank's 25th March build and the latest 5.0 gapps installed.

Also i have the timberwolf layer installed.

Any pointers guys ?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
This is the main reason I was hesitant to continue on with 4.4 gapps packages after 5.0 came out. As apps continue to have new updates, but the core OS does not, stuff like this happens. This is caused by libs that hangouts needs to run that are called the same name as libs required by other apps. They're supposed to be shared, yet can't coexist as system apps because the libs conflict. The only way an app could use its own specific version of a lib on kitkat is if it's installed on the data partition. This problem was resolved in lollipop, and now even system apps can use their own libs.

Long story short, install an old gapps package and let hangouts update from the play store. I will cease supporting kit Kat gapps shortly for this reason.

edit: i'll still provide updated versions of 4.4 multi-dpi play services as they come out, but everything else you can let update from the play store.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] locutusx:
Thanks for the explanation dan! But I am curious - do we even really need the multi-dpi Play Services? (4.4 users)

I run SlimKat 9 stable on a Nexus 4, so it's obviously using a non-standard dpi (268 i think). For a while I was running with a "google-pushed" play services which couldn't have been multi-dpi because google pushed it .... before switching to a multi-dpi play services when I installed one of your 4.4 GApps packages.

I'm not really sure I noticed any visible difference between the two. Where/when would I have noticed the difference?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] DsturbD:
hey Dan, to exclude face unlock just add <exclude name="system/lib/libfilterpack_facedetect.so/**"/> ?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
Multi dpi mods to play store, services framework, and play services were required to get all apps to appear in play store when using non standard dpi. That's what multi dpi means.

[General SlimRoms Discussion] abhibnl:
Hi [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION]

just wanted to be clear on one doubt. As the lollipop 5.0 gapps are already multi-dpi patched., so if i change the dpi of my bacon to 410, would i still require any xposed module to apps to show properly on play store or the gapps will handle that part automatically?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] damngood98:
xposed is not needed....anything that specific would be in the op...what he does with the dpi allows all apps to be show in the play store regardless of what you set your dpi at
