[General SlimRoms Discussion] j1gga84:
I want to switch to SlimGapps because I have massive problems with Open Gapps and on my older device I never had any issues with Slim Gapps.

What I want to ask: can I just delete the apk's (folders) from the zip that I don't want to install or will I get an error during flashing?

In official CM12.1 I set lcd density with the option in settings->screen. Are you suggesting me to modify build.prop file instead of using the function made by CM? This would be useful advice for my future flashes.

But I never understood why Google Play Service suffers of this annoying bug.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Thebear j koss:
It is not a bug, it is used to distinguish screen differences and what will work on phones, tablets, phablets. It is kind of obsolete as they are now moving to different arm structures but it is still necessary so people don't install apps that are not usable on their device. Gotta remember not everyone is rooted or knows what people know here on xda. Any decent file manager should come with a build prop editor, but i believe with the CM rom you are on, the native method in the ROM should suffice. It should edit the build prop itself so you needn't worry about a mistake.

Hail ?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] asusgarb:
Thank you. I suppose CM created that function to simplify build.prop modification.

But there is still the problem of GPS crashes. Maybe I'll try again.

P.S. First time I flashed CM was with this zero gapps (old one, January 2016). On boot immediately started GPS and also gapps.process FC without stopping.

I rebooted and the same. So I reflashed and again.

Could it have happened because gapps were too old, or could it be some incompatibility with CM nightly?

Sorry for asking, but I'll try I don't want to have the same problem.

[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
built-in density selector is fine.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
wouldn't know without seeing a logcat, but i can almost guarantee gapps.process FC has nothing to do with density/DPI. all i can say for sure is that flashing multi-dpi add-on is unnecessary in your case.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] chandidas:
I want to install zero gapps, it doesn't have exchange. If I just install some app like wpsmail for my exchange will it work?

I don't want mini gapps, it looks big.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] marcdw:
What do you mean "it looks big"? The contents of mini are shown in the OP. The only " big" thing is probably Velvet (aka Google Now/Search). I'm sure you use/need it anyway.

Unless you use a different Velvet (Theme Ready, Thyrus, TBO) you might as well just go with mini.

[General SlimRoms Discussion] shaggyskunk:
Can you be more specific - You're not going to see a "Gapps Icon" on your Desktop - What Icon are you looking for?

Open the App Drawer and see what Apps are there - ie: Play Store etc.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] paparazzo79:
Shaggy there is no play store icon on my homescreen.How come?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] shaggyskunk:
What Device - Rom and Launcher are you running?

If you're running a 5.1.1 Rom you need 5.1 Gapps - 6.01 Rom and you need Gapps 6.0

The Play Store is included in any Gapps that I can think of - Check the App Drawer for the Play Store...

But some friendly advice - It seems that you really need to get more familiar with Custom Roms and Android... Preferably BEFORE you end up with a bricked device...

I'm really not being harsh - But there seems to be some fairly basic information that you are unfamiliar with ;)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] paparazzo79:
I' sm confused right now look:

If I installed stock 5.1.1. version that means I can only flash 5.1..1 custom ROMs and Gapps?

I can not install 6.0 ROM like Resurrection Rom for MM on 5.1.1. stock device?

Besides what is difference between openGapps and Gapps?

How do I run Gapps when I flash?

Where do I check if I installed Gapps?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Mav3rick40:
WOW How long have you been doing this flashy thing?

If you installed gapps you will have the play store in your app drawer. if you didn't install there wouldn't be a play store. pretty simple.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] shaggyskunk:
If I'm understanding you correctly - You are running the Stock Firmware for your device? And I don't think that you have said what device you have yet?

Do you have a Custom Recovery - ie: TWRP 3.0.2-0?

If you are running a 5.1.1 Rom - You can ONLY Flash 5.1 Gapps!

If you are running a 5.1.1 Stock Rom..

You can Flash a 6.0/6.01 MM AOSP / CM13 based Custom Rom - Provided that the Bootloader and Modem on your phone meets the requirements of the Rom that you want to Flash.

If you Flash a 6.0\6.01 MM Custom Rom - You HAVE to Flash 6.0 Gapps!

Gapps are Google Apps Packages - Which include many of the Applications that you want / need for your device to give you the best user experience - The Applications included in Slim Gapps 6.0 Packages are posted in the OP - But here they are again

Here's a link to some more reading information for you ;)

http://www.android.gs/download-install-and-flash-google-apps-for-android/
[General SlimRoms Discussion] paparazzo79:
I have icons:

Google App,Google Play Store.

Which means I installed Gapps?

What is the difference? I downloaded 3 versions:

Gapps BaNkS-Dynamic-GApps-6.x.x-10-20-15,

open_gapps-arm-5.1-stock-20160424

and Slim_mini_gapps.BETA.6.0.build.0.x-20160121-1447

I forgot which one I installed.

So which version should I install along with ROM?

I installed first stock 5.1.1. ROM from sammsmobile for my network.Then I flashed latest Resurrection ROM which was MM but gave me loops with it's logo.Then I wiped everything except system and installed latest lolipop version of RR ROM.

So basically I can't install Resurrection ROM MM version if I didn't flash stock 6.0 MM version.But there is no such for my device which is SM-N9005 LTE International version.

---------- Post added at 03:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:10 PM ----------

So when I install Gapps how do I install apps from Play Store,on stock it was Play Store icon,here there is none.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Mav3rick40:
Yes you installed gapps. if you are on a 5.1.1 rom you want a 5.1.x Gapps if you are on 6.x.x rom then you want 6.x.x Gapps. I don't remember exactly what the difference is between the Gapps some of them have different apps by default and some tweaked them here and there. I know this one I think has a script that if you are on a 5.x.x rom and you some how grab a 6.x.x gapps it wont flash.

I hope this answers your questions.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] paparazzo79:
OK thanks.Since I installed them how do I install apps from play store?On stock there was play store icon.Here on ROM it's gone.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] shaggyskunk:
What Launcher are you using? But open the App Drawer and look for the Play Store icon and copy it to your desktop.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] paparazzo79:
I can't do that.When I click on Google Play Store nothing happens.I'm on Resurrection ROM.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] marcdw:
If I read correctly you said you wiped everything _except_ /system when you went from one ROM to another (Bliss to RR or whatever). Sounds like you're dirty flashing between different ROMs.

You need to clean flash which means wiping system also.

Don't worry about the differences between gapps. Just decide if you want a minimal gapps (essentially play services and play store - then install the rest from the Store) or full gapps that has almost everything.

But as said before, you may need to learn and research. Sounds like you're in over your head.

I hope you backed up your stock ROM.
