As I was searching for the Google Play Services problem (sent a logcat of it to [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION]) I stumbled upon this on the PA Gapps thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58650917&postcount=1709

So it seems that the Nexus 9 will need a Gapps package with 64bit libs included to fully work, if I understand that correctly

Hopefully danko you can integrate those libs to the Slim Gapps

[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
it's do-able, but it's going to take a bit. and it's going to increase gapps sizes across the board because additional versions of play services, google now, and chrome will need to be included for 64bit devices (right now only volantis is affected, but i'm sure other arm64 devices will be supported in the not-too-distant future)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
can you, and anyone else using volantis (nexus 9), please test these new packages for arm64 instruction set ONLY (please nobody attempt to flash these gapps on devices without a 64-bit processor)

please nandroid first. i don't have any arm64 devices, so these packages are untested.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] inffy:
Will try them tonight
[General SlimRoms Discussion] fujirio:
can these be used with any rom running 5.0?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] damngood98:
the regular beta gapps? of course, and there's none better imho :o....you're a little vague though so if you mean what [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] posted here, and i'm just gonna go out on a limb, but i would say no, they cannot be used by anyone running 5.0...see the op for everyday use :good:
[General SlimRoms Discussion] vogemic:
Tested and working. Dirty flashed. No problems☺.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] danarama:
mInes blank in 484... :(
[General SlimRoms Discussion] NovaSlim:
Same here, Clean flashed N7 and dirty flashed N5 both shows blank on tablet/phone search for apps I have installed.

any plans when TRDS functionality for 5.0 and 4.4 will come back?

I read that TRDS is back on SlimLP already?

Part of the rom, not gapps, but I'll look into it today. Should be an easy fix.

[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
You guys want me to maybe add TRDS Google calendar to full gapps or something?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] XDAMaxe:
woah, that will be grrrrreat !

idk if it is the same or similar problem: the list which appears if you want to create a

shortcut

on the homescreen is nearly unreadable because font is white on white background (trds en- or disabled doesn't matter), see image. weird because the list for creating a

widget

looks perfect.

Which launcher are you using?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] XDAMaxe:
it is holo launcher...

ah, you mean it is a launcher issue ?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] XDAMaxe:
alrighty, then sorry, my bad, I will contact the launcher devs and big thanks for the hint
[General SlimRoms Discussion] BigGiantFish:
That would be great. Thank you, Slim knight.

[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
No need to apologize for your English by the way, I understood it perfectly well. Fixed this issue in this commit: https://gerrit.slimroms.net/#/c/10296/

See attached screenshot.

As for the second part of your request, that's a little beyond my area of expertise. Might be a good thing to ask over on one of the device threads for slimkat. Hammerhead has a pretty active one.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Technical:
I would like to see:

1. Gmail and Hangouts removed from the mini package as they can be downloaded from Google Play.

2. The same for YouTube on normal package.

3. GoogleEars, Music and Talkback be reserved to the full package.

Don't think you need to mate, I'm sure some libs or summit are missing from the AOSP version as I've found a fix.

Download the Google one from the store and you will get the functionality in the AOSP one, uninstall it and the functionality persists even after a reboot.

[General SlimRoms Discussion] Technical:
No, they won't. But it the user want they TRDSed he/she could download the normal or the full versions ;)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] gravedigger76:
[MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION]

First i have to apologize, but i wish i can take a screenshot of the following small bug (I think), but unfortunately due to email sensitivity, i'm not able to, so i will describe it as best as i can:

On clean install, with clean flash of the latest BETA GAPS

Before you turn on TRDS, open AOSP email client and setup email.

In the list of emails (not going into specific email)

The colors are stock: FROM Line is Dark Black (BOLD), Subject line is Dark Black (Block smaller font), and then Normal font for the preview of the first few lines of email body...

Then Turn on TRDS:

Colors invert no problem.

From: White Bold, Subject White Bold(Smaller), Body is off white/Gray when unread

Now:

Ones you have TRDS turned on even ones:

Turn off TRDS

Go back to email AOSP client

All colors besides FROM are all really washed out.

Is that a known issue or is it just on mine? i was able to replicate this on both my N5 and N7 running Slims.

(On N5, the latest from N5 thread, sometimes from Juba sometimes from other guys who are building up to the min).

(On N7 Stable 6)

Thanks!!!
[General SlimRoms Discussion] pkelly517:
Dan,

You won't make everyone happy regardless.

There's already one more gapps build available than there used to be.

Me, I like gmail included in the minimal build. After a clean flash, I grab the play store calendar and YouTube. I'm pretty much done then.

Do what makes your life easier.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] NovaSlim:
Where did you read that? I haven't found anything either in the Slim N5/N7 threads or the Builder collective thread. TRDS back on 4.4 is probably unlikely as SlimLP is coming out on more and more devices so 4.4 support will be going away soon. As far as TRDS on SlimLP is concerned there is no news and everyone is just using Layers to theme their UI and apps atm.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] DroidIt!:
To add, not even Danko has said anything either about TRDS. So unless he's doing some super secret coding, I doubt it. Seems his current project is COS and such ;)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] NovaSlim:
Now his tease post on COS does show a dark gray system background :http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58888442&postcount=32596 so there could be confusion about him teasing TRDS(doubt it as TRDS have always been about #000000 black, not dark grey).

But I think that's just a layer theme he downloaded and applied(or maybe he made it himself).
[General SlimRoms Discussion] danarama:
At least its not just me. I just tried 482 its the same. It has definitely worked for me in the past. I'll look on my NAS tonight to see what package I was on before 484 (I dont think it was 482) and see if it fixes it.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] NovaSlim:
Might want to try the 0204-463 build or earlier, the newest version of google search(velvet) was added on 02/05.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] danarama:
Interesting... will do that

Edit > File no longer exists. Same with 459

The recommended file was not found!

I'll wait till I get home
[General SlimRoms Discussion] DroidIt!:
I get the same as you guys. Either of you think it might just be layers. I haven't disabled them yet to look, just a thought :)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] danarama:
I'll let you know when I've tried an older working gapps
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
might be a velvet issue, or it might be a play services issue. play services (prebuiltgmscore) is where the libAppDataSearch.so resides...

this damn phone search is always causing issues :mad:
[General SlimRoms Discussion] danarama:
Confirmed the 27th January build is working.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] VictorLapin:
Yeah, not the first time for sure

It's not layers, as I've noticed it on a veeery clean flash ?

Tapatalked from Slim Nexus 5
[General SlimRoms Discussion] NovaSlim:
That version have old search and old playservices, so we can't isolate the issue.

If you have or could get your hand on slimgapp 473/475(I can't download them from slimrom website) please try flashing that and see if the problem exists there. These are dated on Feb. 11th around 20:00 before dankoman added the new playservices around 21:06. If phone search work on that one then we know the playservices is causing it(as those builds have up to date search but an old version of play services).
[General SlimRoms Discussion] danarama:
Not trying to isolate it. Just trying to get it working. Maybe more testing tomorrow but I've flashed enough today
[General SlimRoms Discussion] NovaSlim:
Maybe you can try updating the google app in the playstore and see if phone search still works after that? If that breaks it you can always uninstall the update.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] danarama:
All my apps updates after I flashed. No issues.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] NovaSlim:
How about your Google play services? Version 6.7.74? or 6.6.03/6.5.99?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] danarama:
6.5.99

Google app is 4.1.29.1706998
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
it's play services. just confirmed. reverted only play services to last version and phone search screen shows up...

so, the question is, should we wait for google to fix it? or should i revert the play services version in the current gapps package to the last one? (i really hate going backwards :-/ )
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
6.6.03 is the version i reverted to (from 6.7.74)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] danarama:
Yep. I just flashed an old version I had.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] NovaSlim:
I'd prefer to waiting for google to fix it. Mainly because I don't phone search that much and I have Nova Launcher's app search to lean on.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] DroidIt!:
Well, I would say just wait. I know everything is enabled in there by default and I never disable anything. So unless somebody REALLY needs to disable something in there, I'd say keep it for now :)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] danarama:
Is that the only problem you have? When mine shows blank, the search doesn't search the phone for me.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
did you get a chance to test this out sir? (not that i don't trust [MENTION=1875677]vogemic[/MENTION], i'd just like to have multiple confirmations of success before i go spreading the word or publishing these on slim's site)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] 213182:
seems to be a very dump question,Why the size of MINI version is very high when it is supposed to have less services when compared to normal and full version?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] AquilaDroid:
You must be looking at an old set which had a decimal point missing. The latest L version (484) is correct at 64.46MB
[General SlimRoms Discussion] 213182:
Mirror 1 url posted in the thread is http://104.236.22.120/index.php?device=gapps/lollipop

there I cant see 484 version only 480 version is available.

any clue?

[General SlimRoms Discussion] TJKV:
5-6MB is nothing. That was probably just the first sync happening because you clean flashed. I mean it has to download all your contact pics, emails, settings if you selected that option, wallpaper, calender, app data and whatnot.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] hooliganx:
no man. yesterday spend 400mb! in last than 1 hour. and sync off!

5,3 GB in wifi yesterday. and only using whatsapp! and... syn off.

I think this is not normal.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] TJKV:
Hmm...you kind of buried the lede there then XD

Do you enable data backup/restore when you sign in after a clean flash? But most likely since you are on KitKat, the phone is downloading the Lollipop update in the background (and obviously failing to go beyond that). That is a common problem in custom ROMs on Nexus devices, and all ROMs include code to disable that update check. But even then I've seen it happen, and there are tried and tested methods of fully disable it, for example with the Disable Services app. The term "FOTAKill" is involved, maybe a google search using it will lead you somewhere :)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] inffy:
Tested tonight and they seem to work fine. Atleast no problems with Gmail and play store
[General SlimRoms Discussion] csolanol:
Are you restoring apps with TiBu?. I had this problem once and TiBu was the culprit.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] hooliganx:
Yeah man. Using TB. but is not a problem for me.

I found the problem (guess hehehehehe)... and wanna thanks [MENTION=4148153]TJKV[/MENTION] for the advice about FOTAKILL.

I do this (in case any other have sabe problem):

1. Download FotaKill from here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40671840&postcount=1

2. put the apk in system/app and give permissions.

3. in etc/security rename otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.BAK

4. in /cache delete de update.zip

5. reboot

6. seems all is fine. :D

Thanks guys for help me with this thing.

Thanks [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] for your great work, and sorry for disturb you. :(

...
[General SlimRoms Discussion] TJKV:
Keep an eye on it for the near future nonetheless. Since the page you linked to is for Samsung phones, that particular one may not be suited for Nexus devices. I don't have any firsthand knowledge of this but I would guess since Nexus devices and other OEM devices get updates from different locations, the "FOTA Killing" mechanism may be different too.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] csolanol:
Monitor it man, I used fotakill in the past but for now there is nothing more than 5.0.2 to update from google.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] hooliganx:
ok, thanks. I know about the update. but I'm using 4.4.4 because some features I use a lot in work. :)

is just this update that appear to me. and maybe give me this problem with waste data connection. :(

[MENTION=4148153]TJKV[/MENTION] Im watching ;) but seems work here. no problems till now.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] NovaSlim:
Check you playservices version, should be 6.7.74 as listed on dankoman's github. And my google services/ playservices data consumption is absolutely normal(data are for the entire month of Feburary).
[General SlimRoms Discussion] hooliganx:
[MENTION=5281524]NovaSlim[/MENTION]

yes same version here.

Look how things goes wrong yesterday...

[MENTION=4148153]TJKV[/MENTION] was right. not a gapps/play services problem. but a OTA problem.

don't know if [MENTION=2095315]ezio84[/MENTION] knows about it in your last version of KK.

but everything working good now. [emoji6]

Anybody else having problems with Goog maps on 486. Just did a clean flash on my flo and I get repeated FC's. I cleared maps cache, data, force stopped it, uninstalled and reinstalled it from the play store and still force closes. Any ideas?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Jax Teller:
Works fine on my flo with latest weekly, 486 full gapps & EX 3.05.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] VictorLapin:
Checked on N5 and N7, works fine. I did have some strange issues with G+ app on flo though, but reinstalling from play store helped.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] DroidIt!:
Yeah, was just doing a clean flash and I let the tab sit while apps were restoring and maps suddenly started working so all's good now :)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] NovaSlim:
Works just fine on mine(N5 and N7), I dirty flashed it no less.

Update: Glad you solved it.

I cant seem to figure out which are the latest and most stable gapps for SlimLP latest weekly ie the ones on slimroms.net(Slim_mini_gapps.BETA.5.0.x.build.0.x-20150221-486 ) or something else....can anyone help a brother out ? :)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] shaggyskunk:
They may be called Beta - But they're anything but!

Just decide if you want Full Gapps - Normal or Minimal

[General SlimRoms Discussion] shaggyskunk:
You could try going to manage apps - clear cache and data - Reboot - OR if that doesn't work - Repeat the above - Then go to System Apps and delete Maps - Reboot and install it from the store...

:) Mine resolved itself pretty quickly...like about 5 minutes. After maps didn't work for me I went ahead and finished my TiBu restore anyways and afterwards maps was working again ;)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] ppog:

[MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION] et al.

I'm at the end of my tether with this Maps FC problem. It just won't work. I did a factory reset last night and flashed from scratch, still won't open. The bugreport that the FC generates mentions a java null point exception. I don't know what that is but it sounds like my problem. Can anyone offer any insight?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] VictorLapin:
Can you be more specific, where exactly a NullPointerException fires? Some stack trace would be helpful.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] shaggyskunk:
I know that this is of no comfort to your issue - I just flashed a Rom update & 486 Full Gapps - Maps is working fine for me.... I imagine that you already tried this - But if you haven't - Have you tried to restore a Nandroid where Maps was working properly for you?

"bye bye sweet Canadian moonshine"
[General SlimRoms Discussion] pkelly517:
So you have a bug report that tells you the problem. Have you uploaded the report?

Any report of a FC should have a logcat attached. The very first time you report it. Any and every follow-up. Attach it until the problem is solved.

Don't make those who want to help guess.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
@ anyone experiencing maps FC, can you try to mute voice guidance and see if you still experience FCs?

if you can't get far enough to even mute voice guidance, then try to uninstall maps, re-install this version (was reported as the newest working version by people experiencing FCs), then disable/mute voice guidance, then update maps to latest version and see if you still have FC?

i'm trying to troubleshoot here, and it's really difficult because i can't replicate the issue locally. the FCs that have been reported to me all point to the FC being the result of the code of the app attempting to get the length of a null array, and i think it may have something to do with voice guidance. your help is appreciated.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Riddlah:
Had the maps FC on a clean install of the SlimLP Alpha on shamu with gapps from Feb 21. Deleted maps and installed the version linked. Currently no FCs, but haven't disabled voice guidance yet.
