The Google+ issue doesn't appear to be related to Gapps at all. I just flashed a newer 201401106 one from basketbuild and I still cannot install Google+ from apk or even find it in the store.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] herna:
Hi guys! As promised few hours before, here you have my Illusion gapps, which has support to install Google+ for this people having troubles.

This Illusion gapps includes new Google messaging app and will delete MMS,Email, Music and the old Search Box, since they are old or not needed anymore in the case of Email. I also included Exchange so you just need to install Gmail app from Play Store or AP and it will work perfect.

DOWNLOAD LINK: Illusion Gapps herna

Flash procedure for people having troubles with Google+ and just for everyone who wanna flash these new gapps is in the OP. Enjoy!

That's not how it works you need to directly link to kernel source in op, please add the direct link to kernel source as per the rules on XDA otherwise this thread will get locked

My apologies that this info is found under downloads
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] herna:
Sorry for this answer, and sorry moderators.

Well are you some kind of stupid or what? Do you think you can come on a thread that is not yours, without say Hi or anything and come here to say me what I have to do?

You say this thread will get locked? Report it and you will see why it will not get locked. You are brave and kinda stupid to come here this way, I´ll give you the chance to show how intelligent you are, so please report it.

For the next time be more friendly, read a little the posts, and always, come here being friendly, not prepotent. Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eagleeyetom:
Hmm, no? There is a DevDB entry for that and as long as the source is available, there is no issue.

Also, hold your horses everyone, there is no need to heat up the situation here.

Hi!

Twrp gives me error when I try to flash this zip. I'm using multirom, flashed your rom as primary.

Thanks for the new gapps. Any news for the location services being fixed?

Please look three posts above yours.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] show-p1984:
I wonder why you would want the source. You are clearly not bright enough to even see the link to it...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] arifqur:
Man why trouble yourself for something that does not concern you.

Let the moderators decide what is right and wrong.

We the XDA members are almost always interested in what new goodies we can get from a Dev thus every-bodies anxiousness to get to the Download Link as fast as possible. That is why nobody ever reads the whole OP.

Who is interested in proof reading the damned OP and pointing out the mistakes.

Chill
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Circaflex:
I'm on mobile but it is supposed to be in the op I'm not seeing it

Whether I'm smart enough or not rules state source linked in op and easily identifiable.

What is the difference between this and the other 2 aosp builds in the development forum? Is it different somehow or are they all basically the same?

Sent from my Android 5.0 Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] herna:
It is not the same. We have no errors that are happens on purely AOSP builds. Also we use our own kernel that runs much better than stock Google one, and have some tweaked libs and also Ambient Display, the new N6 feature.

Hi Herna,

I flashed the latest gapps from page 17 (Dirty flash, did wipe cache). I'm getting some errors with Google Play Services. It says it's not compatible with my device.

Will you tell me which gapps should I flash?I am all confused and you are using bricked kernel right?Does it contains color control? thanks for early build :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] razrlover:
@ herna, You some kinda ninja?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] herna:
Yes, it should no, it is.

Dirty flash? I never said you have to dirty flash. You need to do a clean install with Gapps linked in the OP.

Use the one on the OP. And yes, we have bricked and color control :P

Me? A ninja? mmmm :rolleyes: :cool:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] StNickZA:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nushio:
I can confirm that everything works awesomely on a fresh install.

I read the whole thread, but I don't understand what people means for "battery fix". Shortly, I'm searching for a ROM without the WiFi drain problem (google pushed more than 14 hours ago the fix of that). Do this ROM has WiFi fix? Cause I left it for another that doesn't have that fix... And... WiFi/data localization still doesn't work?

I think ive figured out the FC, there is a "setenforce 0" command at the end of init_qcom_post_boot.sh in /etc

Change it to 1 or remove it, it fixes some FCs

Non deodex has NC working

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] RyTekk:
I've just flashed odex 167 and NC doesn't work.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
Odd. It was working on a couple of devices i tested on :/

It seems the other two roms alike this one are suffering simular issues
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] RyTekk:
First time, I used Flashtool to extracted system.sin to system.ext4, then used ext-explorer to opened, saved and created zip. => NC not works

Second time (just some minutes ago), I used PRFCreator to created zip and NC works now.

I have some question. If I flash superuser mod on odex rom, will it work? And if I flash deodex patch, will NC works?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
Superuser mod: No

Deodex patch: not sure, probably not
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] RyTekk:
Did you test superuser mod on odex rom? Do you have any idea to install superuser mod on odex rom?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
The way android works makes it not easily posible to make a superuser mod for odexed roms

If you do install a superuser mod on an odexed rom it would bootloop or just bug out heavily
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] RyTekk:
No bootloop, I've tried on Z1, but I don't know it works or not (by run camera apps were ported from Z2 or C3), framework folder has services.jar that is deodexed and superuser mod, and services.odex original.

Good news: NC still works after I flashed deodex patch.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] lanc3lot:
So any progress on this stopped? So we can have a working NC
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
Deodex= NO NC At all (still clueless why)

Non-Deodex= NC on some devices(UK region worked for me, EU reigion too)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] RyTekk:
Use PRFCreator to create pre-root rom then flash deodex patch, NC still works fine.

problem

I flashed this rom from 314. Stucked on sony boot logo
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
You have to be on 167 before hand or you have to flash this rom then flash a FTF (excluding system and data)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] cire27rn:
xperia z2

So ill do this and pls correct me:

1. Flash 314

2. Get root and recovery

3. Flash the deodexed rom thru recovery

4. Flash the 167 thru pc excluding the system and data

And after this, will my root and recovery retain?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
Root yes, i havent added recovery to this yet but you can just flash the [NUT]'s dual recovery after you flash this rom
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] cire27rn:
recovery

I cant get tpo the recovery. It seems that it was not flashed successfully?

Changed display comp to MDP to save battery

(last one was accidental)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sh4d1t0:

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
Multi depth something

Its a battery efficient and smarter version of DYN essentialy

It uses a mix of GPU and CPU display rendering to maximse battery life

Thank you!

I have another question.. I like the mods sound, but these mods changes build.prop with his adds on, Will I lose some of this changes on V3 if I modify that archive?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
As far as i know, you shouldent at all
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sh4d1t0:
Ok, I found only 1 change and 2 lines more in your build.prop:

debug.composition.type=mdp (c2d with mods changes)

debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=3 (no lines after mods)

debug.egl.buffcount=4 (no lines after mods)

I changed the first line and add the next two lines on build.prop (like your build.prop)

I don't know what are this lines but added. Thanks
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
Like said i changed it from c2d to mdp

Change where it says mdp to c2d and voila, total stock again, it was an accident because i copied a wrong file to a wrong place but it didnt make much of a difference anyways

debug.composition.type=mdp

You can remove these two (i accidently added)

debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=3

debug.egl.buffcount=4
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sh4d1t0:
I prefer mdp, ok removing 2 last lines again. Thanks
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
Take a backup of your build prop, the max layer line may be needed for mdp comp to run right

Havent tested or bothered to test yet

Ok so i was going to move to a kit kat rom, downloaded dynamic kit kat and all the odin files, and safestrap says you need 3.75 for kit kat. but after installing that i can not get into it in order to wipe etc and install. I trued using the odin "to get to safe strap" flash" with no effect. I didnt want to flash all the odin files and brick the phone because i can not get to safe strap. I uninstalled safe strap in the app but can not uninstall the app nor install an other version "it fails"

how should i proceed?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K-alz:
You can odin the first 4 files in this thread if you want http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2838117

They'll get you to kitkat right a way, BUT there is no going back to JB after doing that. So if you're OK with not being able to go back to JB follow these steps:

1. Download the first 4 files (or you can use the one that has "home" in it by itself) either one will work. The second one won't wipe your phone clean, that's all.

2.Put phone into download mode, connect to Odin, put the files in their correct slots, and hit "start". Let it do its thing. It will reboot and you're done with Odin after that.

3. Download towelroot from www.towelroot.com and install the app. Open it and run it (click "let it ra1n"). That should get you rooted. .

4. Download busybox from the playstore. Open it and run it (install it from within the app).

5. Download SS 3.75 or 3.72 ONLY!!!!! Open it. Install recovery. Start flashing.

6. Enjoy!

Okay here`s the situation.

My GT-P7500 a.k.a p4 is having a problem. Whenever I boot up, it will freeze at the boot animation, and power off if not charging and go to the charging screen if is plugged. I was using SlimBean when I had the problem, flashed AOKP and still the same. Next, when I get to recovery, wiping data takes a looooooooooooong time and never finished (Seriously 3 hours and nothing). Wiping cache`s fine. Tried using TWRP but then I`m stuck on the TWRP Boot screen. I reverted back to CWM but still the same. Is it bricked or something? :( Is there any solution? I`m hoping for an answer ASAP. Thank you...
