I need help please

Hi can somebody tell me which gapps should i choose cuz when i press google apps in the front page it sends me to the wiki and then there are two gapps one for cm 12 (20141212) and one for cm 12.1 (20150524) so should i choose the older one for cm 12 or should i choose the new one if it works please help me which should i get arco or anybody ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] iachimo011:
for me, I think it will be better if you use gapps 20141212 for CM 12.:)

if you use gapps 12.1 20150524 for CM 12, it may cause problem. "MAYBE"

Problem after installing GApps

hey. I have been using Cynogenmod since three years for my Galaxy W. Yesterday, I updated to version 12.0 with Recovery : CWM 6.0.5.1..... It works fine without GApps. But when I flash GApps (Downloaded from link provided in this thread), Phone becomes so slow that its almost impossible to use. Trebuchet keeps on crashing. Things wont open for like a minute or so..... Any idea??

P.S: I followed all steps defined in thread i.e formatting system, media etc....

Hello guys,

I own a cubot GT99 which so crappy that i just want to launch it off my window. So i was surfing the web and it froze. Took the battery off turned it on and it free while booting after the logo appeared. Tried again with no luck so i boot into recovery pressing the power off up and middle capacitive button alltogether. Tried to wipe the cache but it froze when the first line appeared (Formating / cache...) and of course i pulled the battery off. Again into recovery did i boot and tried wiping data with no luck, it froze after the first line appeared. What the heck is wronggggggg....?

Please help.

Thank you both for this! I've been going mad trying to update mine.
[Shield Tablet General] DFA1:
This does not work for me, every time I try it, it reboots to my previous rom, the PACMAN rom....

anyone know how to get by this?

**EDIT** SOLVED

For some reason I was losing my CWM recovery and would get "no command" error when attempting to go to recovery. I reloaded CWM back in, then using adb I skipped the first step "flash recovery.img" I skipped that and just did the rest. In between each I selected fastboot protocol . Unplugged the devices, then rebooted and finally I'm back to 1.2.1
[Shield Tablet General] stanglx:
Yes... this is a known issue with CWM - and it doesnt happen all the time either - which makes no sense to me, and why I have not bothered with CWM recovery partition. I will just flash boot into CWM when I need it. I never need it when I am not hope in front of my PC.

PS - the no command is the first step to getting into the Nvidia recovery.

Glad you got it worked out... Your method was exactly the same way I was able to successfully use CWM to flash a new rom.

Hi I just received my tablet..I rooted it and have custom recovery.. Im currently on the latest build so can I just flash these incremental otas as they are released in cwm?
[Shield Tablet General] zarish:
Thank you, and an FYI, the above item is corrupt on mega as only 571 MB instead of 701MB (fails archive test).

Here is the direct link to the same file from nVidia:

RoW 1.2.1 OTA from nVidia
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
If you're on the latest build why would you flash any updates? Unless of course you're simply talking about flashing them after downgrading your android version, in which case yes you can do that.

By flashing the stock recovery.img you were overwriting CWM as CWM replaces recovery.img. By skipping the step to flash the stock recovery.img you combined both restoring a factory image and adding in CWM. Generally you'd just flash the CWM recovery.img right after flashing the stock recovery package.

Thanks for letting me know, must have been a corrupted download. The link has been updated to the 701MB OTA.

The 2.1 recovery images should be up within the next few hours. 2.1 images are up.
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:

2.1 and 2.2 recovery images as well as the 2.1, 2.2, and 2.2.1 OTAs have been added. Enjoy!
[Shield Tablet General] shangrila500:
So I am having an issue with SuperSU that I have never had before and for the life of me I cannot figure out what is going on. I restored my device using the 2.2 restore zip, everything went perfectly thanks to the instructions, and updated to 2.2.1. Once on 2.2.1 I flashed TWRP and used it to flash SuperSU.

The issue is though no matter what I cannot gain root access. Everything I flash the SU zip and reboot I start the app and it tells me there is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install one. I have tried different recoveries and no matter what I still have this issue.

Can anyone give me an idea of what is going on?

Edit:

So apparently I was using v1.94 and it was installing an outdated binary that could not be updated in app. I am such an idiot.
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
I did the same thing. For some reason the SuperSU website has v1.94 listed and not v2.40. The latter seems to work just fine, as you noticed, and I find it odd that the site doesn't list it anymore.

Glad you figured it out though.
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
2.2.1 recovery images added.

I also have removed all v1, v1.1, and v1.2 recovery images as they do not seem to be popular. Feel free to PM me if you need a link for any of the removed recovery images.

You might have a corrupt partition,

!! backup your data in advance as it will be wiped !!

You could try this .bat file

!! backup your data in advance as it will be wiped !!

I added partition erase & format option (-w), reboots and some comment so it is more easy to track the process.

Not shure you need the -w on every "erase" but I used it my self this way and process finisched whithout a problem.

I had a similar problem a while back when I wiped my system partition to prepare for the latest full OTA flash. Do not make that mistake. If you wiped system already, then you might need to go back to a full recovery image and flash TWRP then full OTA etc.

Use a full recovery image. They come with instructions to flash via fastboot. You will need ADB and fastboot set up to do this. Just download the 1.2.1 image. That's the highest KitKat version.

[Shield Tablet General] bradonf333:
I flashed to the BlissPop rom and lost all my Nvidia Apps. Not sure if that is a known bug or not? Anyway I followed the steps in the original post to get back to stock and worked perfectly. This was my first time flashing a Rom and I had no idea how to go back to the stock Nvidia rom. The instructions were great! Thanks guys!
[Shield Tablet General] GuyInDogSuit:
That's because the NVIDIA apps are on the system partition. When you flash a ROM, the system partition is wiped clean. So those apps are not saved regardless of whether you did a wipe or not. If you did this on your old recalled tablet, I suggest you flash the nomoreota.zip if you want to keep it stock. Otherwise they'll flick the killswitch and it's bye bye tablet.
[Shield Tablet General] bradonf333:
Sorry I am new to all this so I don't quite understand what you mean? I bought my nvidia shield used. It has already been replaced for the battery issue. Do I need to worry about anything? Final question, so from what you are saying there is no way to flash a custom rom and keep the Nvidia apps? I use the nvidia controller quite a bit so that's a bummer if I can't use it on custom roms
[Shield Tablet General] GuyInDogSuit:
They've been ported to CyanogenMod 12 but they don't work very well. If you want to use the controller, you'll have to stick with stock. And since that's been replaced, don't worry about the killswitch. I thought you had gotten a replacement and still had the old defective one.
[Shield Tablet General] bradonf333:
Ah that makes sense. Damn that sucks about the Roms and the Nvidia apps. Thanks for the info though! Appreciate it.
[Shield Tablet General] LyallM:
I'm looking to recover my tablet to the stock rom (I tried BlissPop and CyanogenMod and didn't really like them) and just looking some advice.

I have my tablet rooted using CWM.

I can see in the rom files the following commands are run in fastboot:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot flash staging blob

fastboot flash dtb tegra124-tn8-p1761-1270-a04-e-battery.dtb

Can I just copy those over to the tablet and run them from CWM? I have had issues getting adb / fastboot working reliably on my Mac, so would prefer to do it from CWM. Do I copy over the whole zip and install it, or, just the img files and then install them from CWM?

Also, in that image there is a recovery.img - which doesn't seem to be called directly. Obviously I want to avoid that to keep CWM and the install the nomoreota.zip file.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Update...

Turns out all my ADB issues were to do with a pair of suspect USB cables, used the charging lead from my XBox One controller and it all just magically worked :)

[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
You can't sideload a full recovery image.
[Shield Tablet General] Dextis:
Alright, no side loading. Issue remains though, I can't seem to flash the full image without getting a "failed to sysmap file" error. Googling for a fix or workaround yields to remedies. Could it be down to the file being the issue?
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
I'll re-download it and double check to make sure it wasn't a corrupted download.

I have to ask though, how are you trying to flash the full recovery image? Are you following the guide in the OP? As the guide implies, TWRP and sideload are not options when flashing a recovery image.
