I tried updating to the "full" March 11 GApps package yesterday and I ended up having lots of issues with Google Play Services error messages.

I previously installed SlimKat 4.4.4 stable 9.0 and the full Gapps build 9 2015-01-07 (which is the latest one on slimroms.net - when I first installed Slim, I didnt know about this thread). I had them both for about a month without making any changes.

Anyways, before installing the March 11 GApps package, I did a cache wipe and dalvik wipe in CWM. Then installed the zip. On first bootup, there were lots of Google Play Services error messages, and in fact, it looked like Play Services had DISAPPEARED ... it was not listed on my list of apps at all. After about an hour with no change, after wracking my head I just decided to install the 7.0.97 from here (320dpi version). That seemed to resolve things, but I was concerned about losing multi-DPI (?). Anyways its been about 8 hours now, phone seems fine except for some Google Calendar issues, currently working on that.

any ideas on what happened?

EDIT: Now I've noticed that tablet-only apps are showing up in my Google Play Store (like "Microsoft Word/Excel for Tablet"). But my Play Store is still v5.3.6! What happened?

[General SlimRoms Discussion] locutusx:
Thanks ecs1984 for the continued support...

But has anyone tested the new March 19 Gapps package yet, on SlimKat stable 9.0?

I'd rather not be the first one to install... because when I installed the March 11 Gapps package I did have some problems at first, which took me some time to resolve.

Thank you and Dan for putting up updated Slim 4.4.4 gapps!

[General SlimRoms Discussion] locutusx:
I just want to make sure I've been installing these GApp update packages correctly. This is what I've been doing:

1. Download ZIP to sdcard

2. Reboot to recovery

3. Wipe cache partition

4. Wipe dalvik cache

5. Flash ZIP

6. Reboot

Is that correct?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] ecs1984:
Steps 3-4 are not really necessary for every new GApps update, unless there is a major change (in which case I would make that clear). It doesn't hurt to wipe those before flashing so it's more for peace of mind unless you are having issues, and of course if you are having FC's or other weird issues then a clean flash is the best choice.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] intrepid24:
is there anyway to customize what to install? for example can I modify a script so that Google Wallet is not installed?

also can this be flashed over a previous PA GAPPS installation? PA GAPPS is now discontinued
[General SlimRoms Discussion] ecs1984:
OP updated with all new packages with this week's updates, including multi-DPI Play Services and today's Google+ incremental update.

You can't customize the install the way you could with PA if that's what you're asking. Yes, it can be flashed over PA but maybe something will misbehave, I don't know if PA has multi-DPI Play Store and Services or if they are done the same way. Just wipe /system and caches then you'll be fine.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] locutusx:
I noticed that dankoman made an updated 4.4 GApps package as well. Any difference between yours and his?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] ecs1984:
Only difference is maybe in the full build with Google+, there were a few incremental updates and I don't know which version Dan included. Otherwise same packages, just trying to keep. up ;)
[General SlimRoms Discussion] locutusx:
Is there something wrong with the Chrome.apk in your latest package? It's only 12MB. Shouldn't it be like 30MB or greater?
[General SlimRoms Discussion] ecs1984:
No, nothing is wrong. The 30MB size is when the lib files are packaged into the apk, which is what you get when you d/l from Play Store. In GApps packages, the lib files are separate from the apk; with Chrome it is a really large lib file. This is exactly the same in Dan's or any other GApps packages.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] locutusx:
Thanks for the info. Just wondering, are you planning to keep updating this package, or should we switch to dankoman's 4.4 GApps package (he seems to have started building them again)?

If we have to switch to his packages now, is there anything we should do special -- in case our last update was to one of your packages and now we start flashing using his packages?

Thanks.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] ecs1984:
Probably going to stop updating since Dan seems to be making regular 4.4 builds lately, and I am no longer using SlimKat on any devices so I don't have much reason to put out competing builds to the official versions.

No difference whatsoever between my builds and his, they are both from the same source so just flash his latest and you're good to go.
[General SlimRoms Discussion] Natakranta:
[MENTION=3048106]ecs1984[/MENTION], I agree, but anyway, thanks for your efforts and updates, much appreciated!

Hi anyone having FC issues with google play services?

Anytime any apps that needs location update (eg google map or any similar), will crash the google play services.

It won't crash when I switch to "Device only", it starts crashing when using "high accuracy" or " battery saving" mode.

I accedently bought a P3300 with swedish language when I need it in english. Can I make some upgrade or anything to get it in english? Maybe just a rom upgrade, and where do I find these roms?

[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] mounir2005:
did you got a solution for your HTC P3300

HI,

did you got a solution for your HTC P3300, to change the ROM language to english one ????
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] petervbeck:
Of course you can change to english when you're flashing to another rom - there are a lot of different ROMs here (cooked/modified or shipped ones)...

The only thing you'll have to do before upgrading is installing USPL, otherwise you'll brick your phone....

just read the wiki pages, there you'll find all informations you're searching for

i also recommend reading the sticky threads in the Artemis Mobile 6 forum
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] Sensonic:
That's not necessarily "the only thing" you'll have to do. When I changed the language of my wife's phone from English to Finnish, I also needed to tweak the country code of the WM6 software ("original HTC"). So I opened the RUU file in WinHexEdit, wrote down the country code of English WM6 and after that I opened the RUU file of Finnish WM6 software. I changed the country code to an English one (needed to change 6 hex digits), saved it and after that I just launched the EXE file of Finnish WM6. Worked.

Well, changing the Swedish language to English one may be easier since there are lots of tweaked ROMs around but if you'd do it other way round (English->Swedish), you'd definitely have to tweak the country code of Swedish ROM since there aren't any tweaked Swedish ROMs available, are there?

Now I just wish that someone could tell me how to tweak the country code of HTC Home program???:confused:

Hey guys, I recently preformed a factory reset in TWRP on my TF300T in preparation for a new rom install. The reset said it failed (odd) and is now showing 0mb of internal storage on my device. I'm stumped. TWRP now asks for a password and I'm not able to load a new rom or anything now. I've looked for a solution online but this issue is only showing results for the Nexus. If anyone can help. I would be in your debt. Thanks!

Had to individually wipe data, system, cache and so on, then did a full factory restore and reinstalled my rom.

Howzit going guys.Im in the process of UPDATING my old Sony Xperia mini X10 (served me well for 5 years) to a newer Sony Ericsson XPERIA Mini ST15i

My question is, Do I just plug it in to my Sony companion and it will upgrade by itself or do I have to do some rooting and stuff?

According to Sony Ericsson XPERIA Mini ST15i specs it is running on 2.3(Gingerbread) right now but upgradeable to 4.0 ( I beleive Ice cream sandwich)

My main purpose is to maybe speed it up a bit plus theres so many apps that requires Android 3.0 and above so just staying with 2.3 my apps are limited

Any help is greatly appreciated

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] vladniko:
So I recently was on stock 4.4.2. Sometimes my screen would freeze, lines would go across the screen vertically & horizontally but I could still see some of the screen I was on. I would simply Hold Pwr VolUp VolDown and reboot and screen proceeded to work. Then i decided to goto Android L. I already had the 4.4.4 firmware but updated to the 5.0 firmware. I then installed the liquid smooth rom. This kept happening and eventually got scared and went back to the backup I had made of stock rom. Then I went to CM12. I liked it alot almost no bugs. But this kept happening. I later began to experience something different. Only vertical lines. Each time they are different. I once waited for it to boot and messed with the volume rockers and heard it go down and then vibrate. So im guessing system still works. I dont know where to go from here. Heres a pic of what Im getting when I try to startup.

Sometimes it is a bit of blue on the side. I know my screen isnt fully dead because sometimes when it starts to decrease in brightness after I booted I touch it and brightness goes back up for a little. Also when I turn it off its black and when I turn it on its the vertical lines. They arent the same each time and sometimes when I boot they become just 4 or 5 fat vertical bars. I am S-off & rooted. I have ADB and fastboot but I never had plugged it into my computer on this rom so i never had time to allow it, but I did turn on usb debugging. I once made it to hbot, the top was a white color and I hit power, then VolDown three or two times and power again and it looked like it rebooted. I bought it from Amazon and their customer support is great. Anyway to get a new one without them knowing I messed with it? Did installing the custom rom trip anything? Last time I was in hboot it was Official and Unlocked. I didnt but it unlocked, it happened when I used firewater. Also if I smash my screen and sent it to HTC(Ive had it for only like ~40 days)would they go digging and find I had a custom rom and flip out on me? All help is appreciated. Also as stated above I believe I never tripped the tampered flag and do have a working nandroid backup. Thanks for your help :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] vladniko:
Just booted it again it was the lines again but it was red then went to black borders and some distinct purple lines
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tobesedated:
That happened to me on my LG G2 but thank god it was under warranty. My replacement was the M8 I'm using now and I haven't a problem yet..fingers crossed.

What happened with my G2 is it started to get really warm then the screen went bright bright white. Rebooted and I had permanent white vertical lines on my screen. After a couple days the few white lines became my whole screen.

I was also running a custom ROM when this happened so I'm not sure if it was something in the ROM that got it going or if it was the device itself. But our phones are different makers and brands with different ROMs.

Mine never recovered so thank god for the warranty. Wish you luck

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tobesedated:
Honestly I doubt it. If the screen is shot there's really no way for them to even see it unless they want to be bothered to hook it up to adb. I had to take mine back in person to BestBuy...unlocked and everything...they saw the screen, tried a couple reboots and a battery pull (like I didn't lol), then checked for water and external damages but there were none so now I own an M8 :)

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] withdrawn:
I love this handset. So much so that i purchased another one. The first one i purchased on the 9th of december for £499, and the second just yesterdyesterdayay for £549. Call me crazy, but it got so bad i was actually dreaming about the white 64gb version as i had originally purchased the blue 32gb version.

The nexus is not perfect. It has a few faults that need to be addressed, firstly being the in ear call volume. Its awful. The volume for listening to music via headphones is awful too. I was expecting so much betterbetter considering the stereo speakers are really good. The handsFree volume is also mediocre, and also, when i tap the handsfree icon during a call, theres a pause/delay of a few seconds which has become an increasing annoyance.

Anyhow, back to the main point. The white 64gb versions screen is inferior to the 32gb blue version i have. Its noticeable. The 64gb screen has a tint to it, isnt as vibrant and colors seem more washed out. Has anybody else experienced this? ive become disheartened. I wanted to love it as much as i do as the 32gb blue version, but its annoying that the screen seems inferior and darker and tinted.

I Love absolutely everything else about this handset. I am literally in love with lollipop, the screen size, the stereo speakers etc, but this difference ive noticed is playing on my mind. I have also noticed the 64gb is slower at opening apps when i place them side by side.

Either way, i still love the blue 32gb, and i am totally out of pocket for the remainder of the year due to these purchases, but Google has definitely injected some magic in there somewhere. Ive never purchased 2 same handsets around the same time before.
