[MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION]

After installing YouTube, play store and Google play services I have only about 100MB left in System ROM, before that I had about 200.. I guess I forgot to delete some unnecessary lib files from full gapps zip..

Is there any chance to delete unnecessary lib files from system and how do I know which files I need and which not or does a small system partition not affect system stability?

Thanks & regards

[General SlimRoms Discussion] matesc:
Not sure why you want to manually select libs, but you can try to wipe system in recovery, flash ROM and gapps after and see how much space left in system. I have left 400+ MB... Good luck

Edit: I am using full gaps, unmodified.

Edit2: after wiping system DPI will be again stock slim, as you probably now.

Edit3: okay brain fart, sorry. You probably have another phone. You can try to wipe system anyway.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] letmedanz:
hey danko, just a thought..

i have no how all this works, so excuse me if it seems absurd..

would it be possible to have a completely dark GAPPS like TBO's gapps?

i never turn off TRDS, so having that option doesn't really matter (to me imo)

a full black gapps would help overcome those apps which are not TRDS compatible?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
100mb is plenty of free space in system partition. Stability won't be affected.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
The issue is that the apps won't decompile in the first place, and thus can't be modified at all. TBO is facing the same issue with the same apps, but they also have their blakkat theme chooser theme. The only way to remedy is using a theme chooser, which works by overlaying resources (apps don't need to be modified).

Nice thought anyway though.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Bejda:
May depend on device (e.g most probably a little old device where CM/other aosp development team or some user's tweaks would use the place left under system partition to put stuffs that usually doesn't belong here to manage a low storage space issue on some other partition) but normally no, system is not a place where data are continuously written,added or produced.

It's more a read-only partition so place left here should remain stable during device's utilisation and low space left (even very low) shouldn't interfere with stability,produce bugs or whatever.

Only problem you may face of course is if you want to flash a mod,a bigger gapps pack or anything that goes to /system and you don't have enough space left (you'll be probably stuck at bootanimation at reboot after flash). For instance if it's a bigger gapps pack you want to install you would have to make a quick diff math between stuffs that the pack will simply replace (if you already have some gapps installed at this moment) and those it will add to system to get an idea of how many space left you need here.

anyway, it's fixed in gapps 214, but that's the only change. so you don't need to update unless you really want to.

Slim FAQ: http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/faq

2-3 extra minutes for device to boot up again if you are using ART(about 140 apps on mine ), not really worth it for me and other ART users.

Hi all

Am loving the Gapps package, thanks so much

I am currently using the stable version 08-05 and all is fine. Are the beta pretty stable as well ? Any new features ?

Just wondering if I should switch or not.

Also when I update Gapps, do I just wipe dalvik cache and that's it ?

Thanks in advance and sorry if this has been asked before
[General SlimRoms Discussion] djmigues:
Beta has newer versions of apps. You can just flash them. Wiping dalvik is unnecessary, but you can still do it if you want to. There's no real instability in a Gapps package. They're just called beta so people can look for colour issues on the TRDS apps so they can be fixed before a stable Gapps gets pushed.

New YouTube 5.9.4.9 and Google Translate 3.0.12 released. APKs in attachment :good:

Btw.: Any chance that we will ever get a package with Aroma installer again? I ask because I don't want to use full GApps package but I want some additional apps on top of Slim minimal GApps, such like Google Translate, YouTube or Google search but if I take the full package and delete every app I don't want to install the libs still remain in the zip file and get installed, correct? but I don't need the libs of the APK's I don't install and I don't know which libs I must remove, you know what I mean? ;)

Regards
[General SlimRoms Discussion] VictorLapin:
I had an idea once to make aroma installer for slim gapps, but then I've been promoted at work... :D Maybe I'll try once again
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
Thanks, I'll work on them today.

About aroma, it's been discussed by slim team and decided against. Too time consuming to maintain, plus nobody wants huge download sizes.

If you need to know which libs go with which apps, download the official stock Google apk from a website like www.gappsearly.com, open the apk as though it were a zip archive, and required libs will be the "libs" directory. At some point I was planning on making a cheat sheet or something with this information though...
[General SlimRoms Discussion] adl:
Oh my god! Thanks for the tip with the lib files! Always wondered if there might be something like that.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] j1gga84:
omg, so simple, thank you :good:

can I also use minimal GApps then and add libs and apks to the folder or is it better to DL full gapps and delete everything I don't want?

Thanks & regards
[General SlimRoms Discussion] m1trand1r:
d/l minimal gapps and add libs and apks.....it's easier....;)

[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
like i said, grab the official version of the stock apk from a site like www.gappsearly.com. open up the apk on your pc as though it were a zip archive (you can even change the file extension from .apk to .zip if it makes you feel better). inside the root directory or the apk file, if any libs are needed, there will be a directory called "lib" (see screenshot below... it's the directory next to the big red arrow).

anyway, copy the libs from here into the /system/lib directory of the mini gapps package to add them. easy as pie!

[General SlimRoms Discussion] JaylanPHNX:
I find it much easier to just flash the full package and remove stuff I don't want. Takes less than 20 seconds with TBu. How long does it take you guys to dl two packages, unzip them, move files back and forth, then flash the one you want?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] chikimonke:
Exactly, make a customized list in TiBu and then after a flash, filter to show only that list, and batch uninstall. Done.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] wonsky21:
Oh, can you point me to some tutorial how to do that? Or maybe you can PM me? I used TB to remove some apps, but I did it one by one :)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
"You can easily create a custom apps list by creating a Label in “Apps Organizer” or “Folder Organizer”, then going back to Titanium Backup, clicking “MENU” and then “Filters” and finally, selecting the Label you want. You can also create a custom-colored label directly from the “Filters” dialog. Your apps list will then be filtered just the way you want."

Source: http://www.titaniumtrack.com/kb/titanium-backup-kb/titanium-backup-tips-suggestions.html
[General SlimRoms Discussion] chikimonke:
I'll post here, that way others can use it too.

Go to the Backup/Restore Tab

Press "Click to edit filters" (Top right)

Press "Create label ..." (Bottom right)

Give your list a name. "Gapps uninstall" for instance.

Press "Add/Remove elements ..."

Select everything that you want to uninstall or freeze (I'll go over the differences below)

Once done, press the check mark in the top right.

Press "Color ..." now.

Choose your color. This will identify apps that are in this list with a small box of the chosen color next to it. If one app is in more than one list, both boxes would show up next to it.

Press "Save"

Now, if you want to filter to show just the apps that are in that list, check the box next to the list, but also make sure all the filters above have "All" selected. If they don't, you might filter out apps from showing up in your filtered list.

Press the check mark in the top right

Now you're presented with your filtered list.

Press the "Paper with a check mark" (next to menu top right)

You'll see that your options here are limited to just the apps in your filter list, so feel free to batch uninstall/freeze from here.

So, there's still the question of whether to uninstall completely or freeze(Disable). If you uninstall the apps, they are obviously removed from your phone entirely. However, if you flash a new gapps, you'll have to run the uninstall again, and every gapps flash there after. If you freeze the apps, they are disabled and will not run, so they will not take up resources or sync in the background. As long as you aren't pressed for storage space, this is the more convenient route. Why? Because even after a gapps flash, the frozen apps stay frozen. Unless a new app is added to the package, you only ever have to run the batch freeze once per clean install.

One last tip. careful what you uninstall, sometimes it can have unintended effects. I have noticed that if you try to remove the stock e-mail account (uninstall or freeze) you tend to get "Exchange services stopped working" on a semi frequent basis. Also, you can uninstall/freeze the aosp calendar if you want, but make sure to leave Calendar storage and sync alone, the Google calendar, and possibly others, will need these. Hope that helps.

[General SlimRoms Discussion] chikimonke:
The gapps zip does not do the TRDS magic, that is all done by [MENTION=1277872]dankoman[/MENTION]. He has to decompile the APK, perform magic, then recompile. Just throwing an APK into the Slim gapps will not make it TRDS-able.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] daywalk3r666:
ok thx

Gesendet von meinem GT-i8190 mit SlimKat
[General SlimRoms Discussion] dankoman:
yeah, i think you misunderstood.

you only need to use the stock version of the apk as a reference to determine which libs are needed (as i have removed the libs from the actual apks in the TRDS versions, to save space).

after you copy over the libs from the app(s) in question, you can delete the stock version. don't put the actual stock apk into the gapps package - just the libs inside it.
