Like what. We already 9 variants of OpenGApps available. If you want every AOSP app replaced, use stock or super with a gapps-config, or aroma.
[Android Software Development] ipdev:
Not sure what you are looking for.

If it was included by Google it should be in Super.

Using Super with a Config-file you should be able to remove and install anything you want. As long as there is room in the system partition.

or I can't say I have used it.

The Aroma installer.

Edit:

I was too slow. See above post.

[MENTION=2286853]Nerva[/MENTION], regarding AROMA package, try it for yourself. Don't dismiss it because you read that it might not work. Unless it's a for sure "don't do". Have you flashed anything else that uses AROMA?

Test it.

If it works (doesn't crash TWRP) you're good. Maybe.

[Android Software Development] Nerva:
My recollection is that GApps are installed after a new ROM is installed, so if TWRP crashes, would I reboot into recovery and reflash GApps using a non-Aroma method?
[Android Software Development] marcdw:
Yes, that would be the case. But...

If you'd rather be safe than sorry maybe just try the gapps-config thing. A little extra work but worth it.

Is there a way to remove the white tint that comes with the Pixel 2 Launcher?

It gets automatically removed when you use dark wallpapers but I want the tint gone on the light wallpapers as well. Anyone has figured that out yet?

Use this app, worked great for me.

You are aware these people know what they're doing, right. Well aware of any updates that Google throws out. Packaging wasn't quick enough? Couldn't wait at least a day before making note?

If you have a less common dpi, it may be offering you the DPI specific version.

The direct way to contribute them is clone OpenGApps from Github, but that is multiple GiBs to clone.

The less direct route would be upload it to APKMirror and our crawlers will grab it and add it to the repository. Either use the web interface, or ML Manager: APK Manager (or the Pro Version!)
[Android Software Development] _Raziel666:
I have a Redmi Note 5 (Global version).

In order to upload them to apkmirror, I should let the updates and get the apk's or is there another way?
[Android Software Development] retired_mnbooze:
Yep, update and get the APKs. There are no shortage of apps to help (ML Manger, Solid Explorer, etc.), or you can used adb from your computer.
[Android Software Development] _Raziel666:
I updated and used ML Manager, but it says that my versions already exist in apkmirror... :confused:
[Android Software Development] retired_mnbooze:
Which App?

What is the downloaded version of the app?

What OpenGApps package/date are you installing?

(after that, I'll probably ask for your logs from flashing the zip...)
[Android Software Development] marcdw:
Howdy all,

In the Q&A thread someone has an issue where after installing gapps on a CM/LOS Marshmallow ROM (tablet device) the Play Store is not visible in the launcher. App is physically present. The apk also fails to install when tapped on.

Any pointers? Thanks.

[Android Software Development] _Raziel666:
First of all thanks for your help! I usually download the stock package, don't know why I downloaded the full yesterday.

I tried to install another recovery (the official one anyway), and downloaded the latest stock package, but the results didn't change.

I'm attaching the log just in case.
[Android Software Development] retired_mnbooze:
It appears that it is failing in the same way. One addtional error that I noticed was:

inflating: zip-arm
libc: Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV), code 1, fault addr 0x0 in tid 647 (install), pid 647 (install)

I assume that you successfully installed OpenGApps at some point, when was the last time that you didn't dirty flash?
[Android Software Development] _Raziel666:
Don't really remember. But what does flashing GApps have to do with dirty flashing? In all the years I've been flashing I've never encountered such a thing...
[Android Software Development] runekock:
Interesting find, MNBooZe. [MENTION=4135807]_Raziel666[/MENTION]

I would say that such an unexpected segment violation during unzip could be:

- the zip file is damaged (try unzipping the file on a computer)

- software bug, but in the recovery, not in the gapps, because the recovery provides the unzip command

- slight instability of the hardware (ever noticed unexpected crashes elsewhere)
[Android Software Development] _Raziel666:
The zip file can't be damaged, I'm always checking the md5. Don't know about the recovery, supposedly I'm using the latest official TWRP.

The weird thing is I tried to wipe /system today and then install the latest LOS and OpenGApps, and these particular apps ended not being updated again.

I don't really know what happens...
[Android Software Development] SpasilliumNexus:
I'm assuming "whyred" is the Redmi Note 5 Pro.

ro.omni.device=whyred

If so, where did you get TWRP 3.2.1-2 from.

Starting TWRP 3.2.1-2-e45a0036-dirty on Wed Feb 18 06:31:24 1970

Unless you changed recovery after posting logs, just seeing "dirty" in that version string of your log means it isn't an official build. Otherwise, that "dirty" string would dissapear after the person making changes commits them. And speaking of build, if I'm correct on this too, whatever recovery you are running was built back in February.

The current OFFICIAL build (3.2.1-0) was made in April: https://dl.twrp.me/whyred/
[Android Software Development] _Raziel666:
Yes the device is the Redmi Note 5 Global version.

I have been using the TWRP recommended by the LOS build developer (see https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-5-pro/development/multirom-whyred-t3765451).

I have even tried the official build, but the results are the same.

Like I said, I even tried wiping /system and flashing again, but weirdly enough the results are the same.

Another thought that crossed my mind is the encryption that the phone has, maybe it has something to do with this?

Heyy :) on omnirom 8.1 for OnePlus one and Swype typing doesn't work with swedish but english works. I installed it with nano gapps, I checked in the gapps zip and found a folder called optional with a swype libs file in it. I googled around and found a link to GitHub I think stating that the Swype libs were removed because it could mess stuff up. Will it still needs things up? If not is there a way to install/extract the files in "swypelibs-lib-arm.tar.lz"

Weird thing is on my Samsung Galaxy s4 installed with Resurrection remix oreo, swype typing worked without needing to do anything :eek:

Does anyone know what I can try? As long wait doesn't need something up :angel:
[Android Software Development] Nerva:
When I look at the options for gapps-config and look at the Open-GApps descriptions of the variants, I have some uncertainty about some of the ones that are described as being available in the Play Store, but their names don't show up when I search for them there. I'm suspecting that could be because their names have evolved since they were first introduced, but they still go by their old names in gapps-config, even though they aren't listed by those names on the Play Store.

Here's a list of the ones I'm unsure of, and I'm wondering if anyone can shed light on these:

1) Google Package Installer -- is this what the Play Store uses to install apps? In other words, if I don't install it, would I then be stuck and unable to install anything, including downloading/installing Google Package Installer itself from the Play Store? Is this a fundamental "bootstrap" app, so to speak? It doesn't come up when I search for it on the Play Store.

2) Device Health Services -- what is this? It doesn't come up when I search for it on the Play Store.

3) Google NFC Tags -- what is this? It doesn't come up when I search for it on the Play Store.

4) Google Camera -- does this even work with non-Google phones such as the Samsung Galaxy S5? I don't see it listed on the Play Store -- if I install it, will it get updates?

5) Google Dialer -- I presume this app now goes by the name "Phone". It says Google Dialer replaces the AOSP Dialer, but while there's a way to disable installing the Google Dialer, I don't see an option to not install the AOSP Dialer as well (with the idea I'll just grab the Google Dialer or some 3rd party dialer off the Play Store later).

6) Google Storage Manager -- what is this? Did it become "Files Go"? Or is it something different? It doesn't come up when I search for it on the Play Store.

Is there a reason to pre-install the AOSP TTS, or should I just download the Google TTS from the Play Store and not bother with the AOSP at all?

My intent here with the gapps-config is to trim out everything from Google that I can get later from the Play Store, as well as pruning all the AOSP components that I don't need or that are superseded by Google equivalents.

Thanks!
[Android Software Development] SpasilliumNexus:
It is used to install apps from anywhere and uninstall them. Even Play Store. AOSP Package Manager does the same.

https://www.google.com/search?q=Device+Health+Services

Programs NFC Tags.

It may or may not. Quality results and functionality may vary. It's on the Play Store. You just don't see it because you don't have the camera framework/libraries installed.

It's in the ROM for a reason. If you remove AOSP dialer, the UI for emergency calls will not work. That is why there is no option to remove it, on top of not installing Google Dialer.

No. It'll give suggestions on items to delete when out of space.

What do you mean pre-install. AOSP TTS is also in the ROM by default. Google TTS is in OpenGApps. Why download it when it's right there in the package.

All of these alternatives are for if you want to have Google's versions.
[Android Software Development] Nerva:
I'm not clear on the answer to my question. So, if neither the Google nor the AOSP package installers are pre-installed (i.e. flashed when installing the ROM rather than downloaded later from the Play Store) then there will be nothing to install anything I want to get from the Play Store? In other words, must either the Google or AOSP package installers be installed in order to have a usable phone?

It doesn't come up when I search for it on the Play Store -- any idea why? Sorry for being clueless about how this works.

But I don't see anything named Google NFC Tags in the Play Store. Why is that? Again, sorry for being clueless.

OK, so it sounds like what you're telling me is I could give it a try, and if it works, once it is installed, it is updatable via the Play Store?

Makes perfect sense -- good to know.

Since it isn't coming up when I search for it on the Play Store, I'm guessing I should flash it from Open-GApps? And then it will get updates?

Is this the Google app you're referring to, or is it the AOSP version? (the colors look strange because I'm running crDroid 8.1 with customized black theme and green text)

By "pre-install" I meant apps that are flashed when installing the ROM rather than downloaded later from the Play Store. Maybe a poor choice of terminology.
[Android Software Development] SpasilliumNexus:
What ever ROM you have installed comes with a Package Installer. Most likely AOSP's. Not having AOSP's or Google's will break the functionality of installing and uninstalling apps everywhere. You need one or the other.

It comes pre-installed on Pixel devices. Not sure about Nexus and not sure about why it doesn't period if it's not installed. If it is installed, it will show up on the Play Store. As for the purpose of it, I don't see any, but it doesn't hurt to have it just in case, which is why ROMs like OmniROM and LineageOS has it also preinstalled.

I have it installed and it gives me this Play Store link to Device Health Services. This link may not work if you don't have it installed. Screenshot attached below.

Another app that is preinstalled on all devices with NFC built in the device. No idea why it's not on the Play Store, and it hasn't been for years I've been using Android, since Jellybean.

Yes.

Yes, that is Storage Manager. Just like NFC Tags, it's not on the Play Store for unknown reasons. Also, just like Device Health Services, that is preinstalled with LineageOS, which I'm positive crDroid is based off of.

Yes. Preinstalled means it comes with the ROM. OpenGApps is an addon which replaces AOSP apps and updates pre-existing Google apps such as Device Health Services to the latest version pulled from the latest Nexus or Pixel factory image or from APKMirror, along with a few other sites.
[Android Software Development] Nerva:
OK, that's strange -- when I click on that link from my phone, it does not ask me if I'd like to open the link in the Play Store app, it just takes me to the Play Store webpage saying the address was not found on the server. What's even more strange is I get the same result when I follow the link on my PC -- typically, I can browse all the apps on the Play Store from my PC, even those that my phone can't use, so it should have worked on the PC if it worked anywhere.
[Android Software Development] Wolfcity:
That's what I see when I click the link (screenshot below). I'm on a 7.0 stock rom. The same from a 8.1 custom rom with open gapps pico, both Moto devices.
[Android Software Development] Nerva:
What I'm asking is if there's any reason to keep the AOSP TTS? Is it in any way better or useful in a different way than the Google TTS? If I'm not going to use it, I might as well have gapps-config remove the AOSP TTS.

Doubt it'll be updated since that is pulled from Android P, while OpenGApps is using "at max" apps from Oreo sources.

The only difference I noticed so far in my very limited time of using TTS is with Google TTS, the voice sounds much more natural. Features such as Google Assistant or an automation app such as Tasker may not work correctly without either one.

try this!

. What you can try to do is update your recovery (if it's not updated) to see if the problem is solved.
[Android Software Development] runekock:
In your Recovery_tmp.log, it seems that things work fine at the beginning. Then in the middle of the gapps install, we get:

install: can't create directory '/system/priv-app/Velvet': Read-only file system

My guess is that the kernel of your recovery discovered something about the 'system' file system that it didn't like, and then remounted it read-only.

Maybe if you look in the dmesg in the recovery after installing again, you can see an error message.

If my theory is correct, then this has nothing to do with gapps.
[Android Software Development] retired_mnbooze:
I am unsure if this statement is ignorance or sarcasm, so I'll assume the prior:

You stated that you are running Nougat 7.1 (which is SDK 25). The latest version with minSDK of 25 (or lower) is 342400.158195997.158195997. If you feel the need to sideload on the APKs from the Android P Developer Previews that is your choice, but they will not ever be included in OpenGApps. When P is released we will include gms.setup from that image (assuming it is still relevant).

As to priority and support, yes we do support Nougat. It is our second most downloaded build after Oreo 8.1. I'll be the first to admit that we miss updated APKs from time to time, but after I've given the time to look into a request and give a response and still get push back in the form of support shaming ... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
