Hello.

I have a Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 where I installed TWRP 3.2.3_0 (latest available for my phone) and LineageOS 14.1 (unofficial, android 7.1.2, again, latest available).

I tried to install opengapps arm 7.1 aroma 20200408 personalizing it removing apps that requires android 9+ and some other things, like the pixel launcher and the pixel launcer icons, but when I try to set up the phone, after asking it to restore from google drive backup, the screen goes black with only wifi, cellphone signal and battery icons on top right of the screen and it doesn't do anything or respond to touch buttons, I can only reboot or switch it off.

First of all: why are there apps for 9+ in the setup of Aroma for 7.1?

Also, I want to know why I have this issue...

Edit: Now I can't even install anything since TWRP crashes everytime I try a customized installation...
[Android Software Development] H4X0R46:
Quick question, it's a minor thing, but when using opengapps for Android 10, when downloading an app in the playstore it doesn't show the download percentage, just says "waiting" and then goes right to "installing". Is that normal for now? Like I said, not a major issue, just a small thing.

this is normal

Stock gapps when?
[Android Software Development] eradicator006:
There's a minor issue with opengapps nano arm64 on lineage 17.1. The addon.d script does not run after updating lineage. What I've done to work around it is change '.. /tmp/backuptool.functions' to '. /postinstall/tmp/backuptool.functions'
[Android Software Development] chincheta0815:
Let me add some information on the blank/black screen issue when installing Gapps...

I recently flashed a Moto G7 Plus and got a black screen after flashing Gapp. The black screen occured when I tried to restore the backup. After choosing the way of restore (from Cloud) the screen goes black when one should be able to add the Google credentials. The system was a plain one, there was not data other present then flash files. Interesting is that some steps in the installation (partitions part) seems to cause/affect the black screen.

The steps I did were the following:

1. Flash a stock rom for Moto G7 Plus,

2. Flash LineageOS recovery (20200413),

3. Do the copy-partitions part to initialize all slots:

There is a script that dd's all partitions. In that script there are some partitions marked as ignored.

Using "copy-partitions.zip" (the one mentioned on the LOS install instructions) I get the black screen later on.

Using "copy-partitions-AB.zip" (one mentioned by Jleeblanch) I do not get the black screen later on.

4. Wipe data & system,

5Flash LineageOS 20200413,

6. Reboot into recovery,

7. Flash OpenGapps 20200412.

8. Reboot to System.

The difference between the two copy-zips: copy-partitions-AB.zip does not ignore dtbo and vbmeta, whereas copy-partitions.zip does ignore these.

Maybe there is an issue with permissions?

I have not clue how to get more information about this issue...
[Android Software Development] Buck Mulligan:
Hello,

I have a silly question. I was thinking about trying the Aroma package for Android 10 (test version, of course): once a stable version is released, will I be able to update the app via play store or it will require a clean install?

Thanks.

Re: Open GApps Android 10 addon.d update survival script

Thanks :good::cool: for posting this but you forgot some important troubleshooting infos:

Your exact device model? Is it an A/B device?

Is it an official LineageOS ROM? Build date?

How did you update? OTA via the LineageOS Updater of flashing manually?

Open GApps Nano build date?

And I don't think that's a minor issue if Open GApps is lost after a OS update. :eek:

Re: Open GApps Android 10 addon.d update survival script

Thanks. :good:

Your OnePlus 3 is not an A/B partitions device & that's with Official LineageOS 17.1, right?

Is that when updating manually or via the built-in OTA Updater?

[Android Software Development] knpk13:
I have a 3T and it's an A-only device, official LOS 17.1, nano gapps are fine on a manual update. Built in OTA updater fails in TWRP because I'm encrypted though. Apparently it works with LOS recovery but I haven't personally tried it.

I haven't clean flashed a newer gapps build to check for the other bug I reported last time though about not being to complete gapps setup without setting up voice recognition.

You're absolutely right, it's official LineageOS 17.1.

I am using Leeco Le Pro3 with AICP 15 (Android 10) official build 13 April. I just dirty flashed with the GApps Andoid 10 64 bit nano package build 18 April. It looks like the Velvet.apk has an error. After I restarted the phone, the package manager won't install the apk. I have tried to install it manually, got the message "the application is not installed". Maybe it was signed by the wrong key or corrupted?
[Android Software Development] osm0sis:
If the /postinstall/tmp path worked then that should mean an A/B device with addon.d-v2... but from [MENTION=4236620]eradicator006[/MENTION]'s other posts it looks like he has a Moto Z, which is pretty old so I'm not sure how /postinstall would exist since it shouldn't be A/B. :confused:

Honestly not entirely sure how the current Open GApps addon.d-v2 script works at all with the /tmp path there... Magisk, for example, detects which version of addon.d it is and uses the correct path. I'll have to look into it.

Will do. Thanks!

The Google app doesn't install in the ARM64 Android 10 4/18 Nano build for some reason. Am I the only one? Tried 4/17 and it seems to be fine.
[Android Software Development] eradicator006:
Yes Moto Z. Ignore what I said about /tmp vs /postinstall/tmp. I was on April 8th arm64 opengapps nano at the time. I installed a self built update of lineage 17.1 via adb sideload. Gapps wasn't retained. I did some googling and found out about /postinstall/tmp fixing it for someone not realizing that was an A-B thing. I made the change to my addon.d script one night. After that I must've updating opengapps to a newer version and the addon.d script reverted back. I applied a lineage update with adb sideload assuming I still had my modified addon.d.

I still don't know what the problem was but gapps are still there after updates.

Hi.

I have a Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 where I installed TWRP 3.2.3_0 (latest available for my phone) and LineageOS 14.1 (unofficial, android 7.1.2, again, latest available). Just downloaded open_gapps-arm-7.1-aroma-20200422.zip (it seems that even tho the soc is 64 bit compatible, it just runs on 32bit) so arm not arm64.

I installed everything with open_gapps-arm-7.1-aroma-20200408.zip except Chrome due to a webview bug that didn't let me do the first setup, but now I tried to install open_gapps-arm-7.1-aroma-20200422.zip with Chrome, but it doesn't appear anywhere.

LineageOS 17.1 - Open GApps Micro & Pixel Launcher

There is an other issue. In official LineageOS 17.1 w/ Open GApps Micro the Pixel launcher is not working after an OTA update because it's required overlay does not survive.

The workarounds are dirty flashing Open GApps Micro after the update or set LineageOS stock Trebuchet as default launcher after the OTA.

Note that after initial Open GApps Micro flashing & before the first OTA you can't set Trebuchet as default because Pixel launcher's overlay breaks it.

Open GApps dev [MENTION=2010892]Nezorflame[/MENTION] said in his Telegram group "didn't had time to fix it yet, hopefully tomorrow or on weekend".

If you can help maybe you could communicate with him?

Flashing OpenGApps 10 (arm64) on top of LineageOS 17.1 on Essential PH-1 (mata) leads to boot loop. Then the LineageOS recovery asks for factory reset, which leads to successful boot, but without any Google Apps and constantly crashing Trebuchet.

LineageOS + Open GApps Installation Problem

Did you install the most recent lineage-17.1-20200501-nightly-mata-signed.zip and what is the build date of the Open GApps package?

After a factory reset you will not have Open GApps if you don't flash both LineageOS + Open GApps without booting to system in between.

Because you have a A/B device if you do not reboot to recovery after flashing LineageOS & before flashing Open GApps to change slot GApps will not be installed.

See your device's LineageOS wiki: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/mata/install

It's up to you to decide what you want on your device. See Open GApps Package Comparison.

I prefer the smaller Pico package & just add the extra apps I need from Play Store and https://f-droid.org/

I ran into the issue on my Essential PH-1 as well. Full wipe, formatted sys_a, sys_b, and userdata. Booted slot B recovery, installed lineage 17.1 to slot A, rebooted to slot A recovery, installed arm64-10.0 (1 time used nano 0501, next time tried pico 0502) to slot A, installed lineage 17.1 to slot B, rebooted to slot B recovery again, installed same gapps as on slot A to slot B, rebooted to bootloader, set bootslot to A, rebooted. I don't get crashing trebuchet, but gapps is missing from processes.

Checking the logs, it's either the install script or lineage recovery that's not mounting system rw to do the install:

Hey guys, could you add SHA256 checksums to the download page? Just so we could verify that no one tampered with the downloads.
[Android Software Development] curiousrom:
In the bottom of https://opengapps.org/ you can find the MD5 Checksum link of the package you select to check the integrity of your download.

You can find the same ...zip.md5 in every download folders of https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/

***
[Android Software Development] nushoin:
I know, thanks. That's why I asked about SHA256 specifically. MD5 (and SHA1 as well) have been known to be broken for years. Now that Open GApps uses SourceForge as its hosting site, and given SourceForge problematic history involving modifying downloads with AdWare - see for example here - I would feel more assured if a stronger hash was used.
[Android Software Development] Nikhil:
Correct me if I'm wrong, as long as the package is signed, it should have the integrity right? You could just open the zip to validate the signature. In case if it's a bad download, you wouldn't be able to open the zip in first place.
[Android Software Development] osm0sis:
Yes, plus if you read between the lines he's basically suggesting a scenario where someone would hack Open GApps' SourceForge account and then alter a zip with something malicious that would also generate a colliding checksum, but in this case they could just as easily alter the checksum file as well, so... :confused::rolleyes:

Only download from official sources and then call it a year.

ro.build.version.sdk check is not always accurate

Hello All!

I tried flashing Open GApps pico 10.0 - 20200507 for an ARM device running crDroid 10

And I got the following:

*** Incompatible Android ROM detected ***

This GApps pkg is for Android 10.0.x ONLY
Please download the correct version for
your ROM: 7.1.2 (SDK 25)

So I investigated a bit and found that the installer.sh script is fetching the following:

# Get ROM SDK version
rom_build_sdk="$(get_prop "ro.build.version.sdk")"

However this is not always accurate as the get_prop was fetching the info from TWRP's /default.prop

~ # cat /default.prop
ro.build.display.id=omni_hammerhead-eng 7.1.2 NJH47F 20 test-keys
ro.build.version.incremental=20
ro.build.version.sdk=25

~ # getprop ro.build.version.sdk
25
~ # setprop ro.build.version.sdk 29
~ # getprop ro.build.version.sdk
25

Can you check if order of the files that get_prop fetches from should be updated for opengapps 10 ?

Thanks
