Guys, try this Gapps from OP, it doesn't give me FC (while banks gapps does FC)

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952596385

Enough of the rom issues talk. You hate fc? Try different Gapps or go back to older build or try other rom.

STOP CRYING.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Phazmos:
Crying isn't the problem, although it is most annoying.

The real problem is loading something that hasn't been officially pushed by Google.

My gps is 7.3.something or other. Gps version from play store is 7.3 for hammerhead - and doesn't show anything about updating. Tkruzze was a big proponent of supplying only what was available from play store. I guess we can see why. Too bad he was pushed out of xda, too too bad.

Don't get no simpler den dat.

Hello people, a little OT but its allowed so a question popped into my head earlier today:

Is there a possibility that a battery drain is caused by something that's left over from a dirty flash?

What i mean is: If there is a ROM (and not an app) bug that drains the battery and the bug is fixed after an update, if i dirty flash the new update over the old, will the bug be fixed or there may be some things left over that are causing it again?

I dont know if i explained it well, if not let me know

Google Play Services Fix

Alright here's how I've managed to fix the Google Play Services errors. Not sure if this is recommended, but it worked for me without a problem.

I have the Banks GApps 5/24 installed. I uninstalled Google Play Services app using Titanium Backup. Then I installed an older Google Play Services (7.0.99) via an apk to prompt an update. The update on the Play Store showed version 7.3.29 (1866531-438), which should mean this is the version being rolled out to the Nexus 5. So then I installed the apk for that version (updating through Play Store didn't work) and I haven't had a problem with force close since. Everything works fine so far, and location services is turned on.

Edit: You can also use Titanium Backup to convert the downloaded Google Play Services app back to a system app.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] thorrules:
That sounds about right because that is the version in the gapps that was recommended by zephik. I have been on that version with a clean flash and absolutely no issues.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Koopa777:
I just installed the latest banks over CM12.1 on my Nexus 10. No FC's whatsoever. So it is definitely not a Gapps issue. Is the latest still crashing for people (7.5.71 Banks 5-24)?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PMamba:
Yes, that was what I've been using
[Nexus 5 Android Development] crazyeats:
But that don't mean its not an aosp problem tho does it?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] devilsadidas:
I know every device is different but for me none of the methods worked to stop the FC's using banks gapps. I switched to pa and not seen one since.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Phazmos:
Hey hey - someone sees the light! The right version for a particular device always works.

PS - never a good idea to mess with system via tib - that's a very well known no no.

Much better to find a correct gapps package and flash normally, with a full wipe of course.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PMamba:
I thought it might not be recommended, I just wanted to avoid a wipe haha

Maybe nice to do: Add a ''Chroma'' wallpaper by [MENTION=1467046]boysetsfire[/MENTION] as the default wallpaper.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Lownita:
It's just wrong to always smash the latest apks into gapps packages before they have been rolled out by Google. I think tkruzze never did that, with a good reason as we can see right now. I am back to 7.3.29 gps and didn't have any issues since.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Phazmos:
Exactly. I mentioned in another thread how tkruzze only supplied what was available from play store.

Morons hounding him for updates when not needed had a lot to do him leaving.

Was a sad day indeed.

I'm starting to believe all this fc bs is his revenge!

Well done tk, well done.

I am temporarily on latest Purity Rom until I see fc issue fixed. Same apps, same kernel, same slim mini gapps, and no issues at all. I really want to come back to Chroma, but fc's are so random. I can temporarily get rid of them, but they do come back. "I'll be back."

The answer has been posted - in several threads - by several users, including myself.

I'm running chroma - have been for a little while - no fc.

Hello! I updated/flashed Chroma to 5-21 r2, and Gapps to BaNkS-dynamic-gapps-L-5-24-15. After flashing the Gapps I lost Google Play Service and Google Play Store. I don't know why this happened.

I attempted to fix the issue by flashing a previous version of BaNkS gapps, BaNkS-dynamic-gapps-L-5-3-15-beta2, which returned Google Play Services, but I still don't have Google Play Store.

I appreciate any and all help.

I'm in the US - v7.3 - same as it's been for about 3 weeks. Deltadroid gapps from 5-5.

I am floating a theory around - may I ask what country you're in?

PS - I believe if you disable notifications in app info no update.

Also - do you use device only and/or disable location in gps with something like privacy guard?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Stryder5:
The recent Google Play Services update seems to be causing problems for many people, including myself when location is set to something other than "Device Only." Seems to be affecting a good amount of people, but not everybody. Seems related to gapps you use so if you don't have that version, you won't be affected.

Not all Q&A threads are monitored, especially if it's not mentioned in the OP. Also, OP specifically stated that off-topic is allowed in this thread so it's fair to ask questions in this thread. But yes, people should use the search function before posting questions. But not everybody follows the threads closely to know if something has been "asked and answered 1000 times."

The FC of the recent updates from Play Services, I've flashed multiple GApps, and roms testing it out yesterday[Purity, Terminus, Rasta, Xtra(Pretty much stock rom)] till I finally got more info on what's happening.

Only fix for it now was to change location to ' Device Only '.

My only thing now is getting Viper4Android to work. The kernel was reversed to stock, and I've been messing with the SELinux crap and still can't get it to work. Anyone can shed some light on this?

Device only is best anyway. No location in gmaps, but not using gmaps is no big loss for sure.

Viper is easy - selinux mode changer - install as system app - set it to permissive. You'll have to install normally from play store, then copy apk somewhere. Uninstall it, then copy to /system/app and match up permissions with other apks.

Reading

Even if the link was at the bottom of "a"

browser, people still wouldn't read it.

I don't think this thread is unfriendly at all, what I do see from day one is no one wants to read, search, find answers for themselves, they have no time, but they all have time to flash every ROM out there.

You even see the same questions/feature requests by the same person scattered across different ROM threads.

This thread has some legitimate questions, but, the majority of them are answered at least 10+ times, and many people who have been here for awhile get tired of it.

Maps - go to deltadroid gapps thread for info. I've been playing.

Viper - that always works, but, I've found if you set anything in viper before you run selinux mode changer, you may have to uninstall viper drivers, reboot, then go through the driver install again.

Another option is using uber kernel. You can enable/disable permissive selinux in it's config file. I also hear of another way to go, but I haven't tested. I have no problem with permissive selinux.

Social apps - I used to get paid well to get people out of that crud! My favorite line was - get me out of this - I haven't heard from these people in 25 years and I don't want to hear from them now!

about clean flash:

I'll try it as soon as i get home, but i already did one for 21.05. chroma just wanted to update gapps, first time to see something like this.

flash methods i tried:

just flash

wipe system/dalvik/cache -> flash chroma + gapps

anyone an idea how to get gps back? :confused:

is it maybe related to this change:
