Can someone who is experiencing the FCs on the 141 gapps Google music please perform a backup of Google music with titanium backup and send me the .properties file and the .tar.gz file? The files look like this:

com.android.music-20140708-113231.properties
com.android.music-20140708-113231.tar.gz

Thanks in advance!

Should I flash beta version or stable for NEXUS 5?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] ezio84:
Sent via PM :)

The official gapps package (.112):

- has not the trds version of google search;

- has the aosp trds calendar;

- works fine.

The beta package (.141):

- has the trds version of google search;

- aosp calendar has been removed in favor of the google one (with trds support), and you need a factory reset to avoid issues (blank settings page etc...)

- google music is under investigation (force close sometimes).

[MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION], my Google music is fine, but I am experiencing fc when picking photo as attachment in Gmail.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] ezio84:
I tried now (from the gallery, the photo app and from "images"), no fc.

PS: clean flash.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] bobby_sucker:
Been using latest weekly+latest beta full GAPPS

no FC's so far ( i mean GM)

[General SlimRoms Discussion] dadoc04:
i too received that fc... along with the google music

clean flash (system, data, dalvik, cache)

package access only fc'd on first boot.. music fc is random and happens even if it's not opened.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] stingjoel:
After click the OK button 3 times, I could attach from gallery and the other without fc... The fc only occur at the first time when clicking ? button.

Did you remove the libs from the cleanup script?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] KoVerdes:
[MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] thanks very much for that fix my friend. I will update them now. So, [MENTION=3306843]kantjer[/MENTION] first I have to flash my rom then the new gapps and then like always wipe dalvik and cache, right ? Thanks!
[General SlimRoms Discussion] kantjer:
yep, the wipe cache and dalvik I leave up to you. i never do

EDIT: Flash gapps before the ROM.

gapps still contains the updater script removing the lib's again
[General SlimRoms Discussion] KoVerdes:
Thanks for your responses Kantjer! I think I have to wait till the next update from Dankoman. I still have that FC (FYI I wiped dalvik/cache). Sorry guys for the many posts that I make.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] :
There are many Gapps packages out there. If one doesn't work, then try another. No need for multiple posts saying it doesn't work.

I am not surprised at this point that people don't want to help.

I suggest trying a different Gapps if this one isn't working. And stop spamming the thread. :good:

damn, forgot to remove those libs from manta and tuna directories (only removed them from common), so they were still part of the file list for the delete script.

okay, new gapps up, NOW try manually wiping system, re-flashing rom, and finally flashing gapps. your original two libs should still be present in your rom.

Personally... I have no idea why he wouldn't... That's the steps you use to change gapps...
[General SlimRoms Discussion] likonvampire:
Loaded up latest normal gapps , seems like the DPI hack might be broken on the included play store.

Also the google app updated on first launch
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Jax Teller:
Slim gapps are not multidpi now, [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] will make an add-on package for everyone who wants multidpi hack.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
yeah since 5.1 gapps are now no longer multi-dpi, i have added a new job to the gapps build, which builds multi-dpi add-on. this contains multi-dpi hacked play store, play services, and services framework. it is to be flashed over top of 5.1 gapps packages (doesn't matter if it's zero, mini, normal, or full).

just did a new build, and the add-on package is there too (it's called "Slim_ADD-ON-5.1-MULTI_DPI-20150501.zip"):

5.1

mirror1

mirror2

changelog here

multi-dpi add-on changelog here

please note that the add-on is for 5.1 only (the 5.0 gapps are already multi-dpi and do not require any add-on)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] likonvampire:
Thanks for the headsup.

Sorry I must have missed the posts in this thread

Edit : Not getting Pushbullet notifications though .. :)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] zadigre:
I don't modify the DPI setting on my device (NOTEPRO 12.2 running an unofficial CM 12.1 build). So this addon is not needed right?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Renton91:
So if I want to change DPI on my ROM I should flash those gapps with multiDPI support?

And another question, I flashed full gapps on Chroma ROM but it didn't install talkback and facelock, I suppose because there's no free space, so I could do to flash them as system app?

Furthermore, is it safe to unistall some of apps (such as Movies, Play Games, Hangout dialer) by Titanium backup?

Thank you
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
they're not automated - i push them manually. i always forget :p sorry.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
correct.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
these things i need to clarify in the OP, and the entire OP needs an overhaul. hopefully i'll get to that sometime next week.

anyway, if you're using 5.1, you should flash the package of your choice, and THEN flash the multi-dpi add-on. if you're using 5.0, then the gapps are already multi-dpi.

yes, it's safe to uninstall those things with titanium backup, though if you're running out of space on the system partition, i would recommend that you do NOT use the full gapps package.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Renton91:
Is there a way to get notifications when a new GApps update is released?

It's not an ETA request, I'm just asking for a way to not going every day to check on the website.

Well, I saw the pushbullet channel but there the last update is of April 17th, so is there anything that notify the latest releases?

As for 'apache server', do you mean 'tomcat' the webserver? Why would you need that to build gapps? You only need apache ant ;)

i got the apache info from that thread. apache ant, isn't it it unix/linux only or how shoud i use this apache ant?

you can run Linux in VMware on a Windows machine. I use it to build my ROM, kernel and custom gapps packages.

It's very easy to set-up.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] kuraigu:
i even have an ubuntu build as vhd. the problem is, i am really bad when it comes to linux/unix stuff :(

but i've read that it's also doable on windows?!
[General SlimRoms Discussion] TJKV:
Okay, since I already did an xda search for you, might as well do a google search too. Here it is:

http://www.nczonline.net/blog/2012/04/12/how-to-install-apache-ant-on-windows/

http://ant.apache.org/manual/install.html

Now you could have done all this yourself and gotten to trying to build gapps on windows, so here is an assignment for you: search google and find out if there is python for windows :)

And if you do try and compile on windows, let us know here how it goes. I personally haven't gotten around to trying it yet, don't know what other dependencies there may be.

Hi everyone. Sometimes I notice a new Google app has gone on the play store and even though I ignore the update for a couple of weeks, and flash every update to these gapps, it's still showing as an available update in the play store. I started updating now from the play store but I prefer to flash the latest gapps package instead. Do they not get the updated apps?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] shaggyskunk:
Google works in mysterious ways lol - Sometimes they update to fix an issue - Sometimes they update for no apparent reason... Dankoman HAS a method to his own personal madness ? I prefer Dan's - But it won't hurt anything if you update from the store.... Not even Dan's feelings ?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
this is always going to happen for certain apps, such as Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, and probably a few more. This is because google, in their infinite wisdom, felt it necessary to release separate versions of the apps for hdpi, xhdpi, xxhdpi, xxxhdpi, etc. They usually always release a universal version of these apps (you can tell which one's universal because the version code ends in 30, whereas the dpi-specific ones end in 35, 36, 44, etc.). The version i try to always include in gapps is the universal one, and if there is a dpi-specific version available in the play store with the same base version as the preinstalled version, then it will update to that dpi-specific version.

No, simple installing Google WebView won't work at all.

However xposed is available, you can use this module.

To verify, you may install WebView Developer Browser from Playstore then visit http://www.useragentstring.com/ to ensure Google Webview not in action.

On Lollipop 5.1, you're left no choice but patching framework-res in order to activated it.

It will be pain in the ass since you are required to do it manually and everytime re-flashing system and will certainly broke custom ROM's OTA.

WARNING: Do not do this if you have no idea about apktool and what I'm talking about.

More practically the skills of saving yourself from endless system and apps crashes which you'll encounter if any of these steps doing wrong.

Decompile framework-res.apk current ROM and look for framework-res\res\values\strings.xml
<string name="config_webViewPackageName">[B]com.android.webview[/B]</string>
change the value to [B]com.google.android.webview[/B]

Recompiled framework-res.apk
Replaced "META-INF" folder and AndroidManifest.xml inside the new package using original's.
Zipalign 4 framework-res.apk

Making sure you installed [URL="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.webview"]Android System WebView[/URL] from Playstore.
Replacing /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Reboot!

If nothing happened, congrats. You're doing it right.

In contrary..
Quoting my own words: "Since webview is such a crucial component on Android and typically cannot run properly without it.
Android will still boot, however crash will be endless on system that fail to load a proper webview package during boot."
[General SlimRoms Discussion] VictorLapin:
[MENTION=4644055]HebeGuess[/MENTION] thanks for clarification then. Didn't realize that it has a different package name.

if you have a different gapps package, you might want to wipe system, reflash rom, flash gapps and reflash any addons... you won't loose anything when doing this.

Just a quick question on the exchange service included.

I am referring to zero package.

Version included there is 6.5-1533254.

It is dated from November last year.

Actually there is new version available.

Latest is 6.5-1791555.

Is there any concrete reason for using an old version or not updating?

Thanks
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
lol because apkmirror incorrectly shows the older version as the latest. i'll fix asap. thanks.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] fmc000:
The version shown by apkmirror is api14 (ICS), the latest is api19 (KK and more).
[General SlimRoms Discussion] -m3tac0rt3x-:
If you open the link provided by dankoman it shows that the Latest Upload is incorrectly pointing to November 14, instead of April 30 (shown as previous versions...).
[General SlimRoms Discussion] adl:
Regarding the old "exchange apk" thing: can i just download the one from APKmirror and replace it with the one in the slim gapps zip file?

Or isn´t that possible due to any hokuspokus [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] does during making those zip´s?

Thanks in advance for a short reply!
[General SlimRoms Discussion] solar666:
You can do so [emoji6]
[General SlimRoms Discussion] fmc000:
It seems that you didn't actually read my post. What does the version showed by the link says? "Ice Cream Sandwich API 14". The newest says "Android 4.4+ (KitKat API 19)". APKMirror is simply showing the more "general purpose" version, the one that works with most of Android devices available. Simple as that.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] -m3tac0rt3x-:
And if you look closely at the link provided and the screen I attached you can see "Latest Upload", 13 November, 2014, which isn't true... and confuses people, even an always up-to-date GApps Dev like Dan :confused: :good:

If, for example, you look at the PlayStore apk-mirror page it says latest upload is May 4, and it is the Lastest Upload of PlayStore, so, the Exchange apk-mirror page is just wrong... there is no other way to look at it! :good:
[General SlimRoms Discussion] fmc000:
I'm sorry but you're wrong and your example clearly shows that you're comparing apples to oranges (not to mention that today there has been another play store update :D - for [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] ). As you can see the Play Store is marked "Android 2.3+ (Gingerbread, API 9)", so obviously the latest version is good for everyone. This is not true for the Exchange Services, where the latest version is only KK+. So, whilst it makes sense to put in the page the Play Store latest version, it is not the same for the Exchange Services.

Anyways, we're talking KK+ so the latest version is good for us. Let's move on.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
alright everyone calm down. bottom line - there's a difference between "latest version" and "latest upload" but it's a moot point anyway, because i updated the version in gapps repos to the latest version yesterday.

now as soon as i multi-dpi hack the new play store i'll build new gapps for you guys to play with and everyone can have latest exchange services, k?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] -m3tac0rt3x-:
I still have to correct you, sory 'bout that... but you are reading it wrong... "Latest Upload" isn't the same as "Latest Version with more Cross-Compatible devices". No?

Moving on now...
