Hey guys and gals

I have be running into an issue where the playstore would tell me that I have an update available. I would wait until open gaps has the latest version of this app in the build and use that to flash via twrp. I have noticed that many times the app wouldn't update and still show as an update is available.

Is there a particular log I can check to see if updates are being skipped for some reason, or could i force the update to happen?

The gapps package I use is aroma arm64 7.1
[Android Software Development] csk1jw:
I think that is perfectly normal sometimes, as for unknown reason, OpenGApps may not always pull the latest version from Play store. Or, OpenGApps does not have the correct DPI version yet. It usually takes some time for OpenGApps to eventually catch up with the Play store releases. You can check the version.txt to find out which version/DPI OpenGApps package contains.
[Android Software Development] VincentJoshuaET:
Are there already plans for official 8.1 support?
[Android Software Development] Young Gunna:
Thanks for the info!!! Do you know if there's a set schedule that they do the pulls from playstore out whatever their source is?

Anyone can help me how to exclude Pixel launcher from stock package?

I'd like to install Pixel 2 launcher. I read the advanced features and options page, but didn't understand.

Thanks.
[Android Software Development] VincentJoshuaET:
Easier way: include Pixel Launcher, then after installation, replace the one in system with the Pixel 2 Launcher.
[Android Software Development] stefan_city:
Hmm, how I'll do that?

Forgot to say that I'm not root.
[Android Software Development] VincentJoshuaET:
You have TWRP, right? Use the file manager there. Replace the NexusLauncherPrebuilt.apk in /system/priv-app. Then chmod 644.

whenever i try to build gapps i get error like 1zip is not installed. how do i solve it?
[Android Software Development] stefan_city:
Tried to do it at my existing setup, but at /system i have only an empty folder named "bin".

Maybe because i have not root access?
[Android Software Development] VincentJoshuaET:
Mount system partition and enable read-write.

Android for Work?

Hello,

I am looking for a way to recycle some not-very-old smartphones/tablets for business use. For that purpose, I would need that the devices are capable of being activated with an EMM solution for Android for Work.

So far, I tried various devices such as a One+ One, a Nexus 5, a Nexus 7 (2013) and installed the latest LineageOS (e.g. Android 7.1.2) and then a OpenGApps package. Unortunately, with a Nano or Mini package, there does not seem to be enough of the Google code to get Android for Work activated.

And when I tried the Stock package, I could not install i due to insufficient space in the system partition. So I don't know if it would work with the Stock package.

Would it work with a Stock or Full package? Or am I out of luck with my goal anyway?

Thanks!

Kai-Uwe
[Android Software Development] VincentJoshuaET:
Try Aroma for the easiest way. Only install the apps you want.
[Android Software Development] wuesten_fuchs:
Well ... my main question was: does Android for Work function with OpenGApps on LineageOS?
[Android Software Development] VincentJoshuaET:
I'm not sure, never used it.
[Android Software Development] wuesten_fuchs:
Well, then you missed something!

---------- Post added at 07:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 PM ----------

I tried Aroma - it only "sort of" worked. Somehow the GUI installer transparently overlaid the TWRP screen and thus it was almost impossible to read the choices etc. - but I managed to get through. However, Android for Work did not work after installing this, either. Some library is still missing or whatever it is that is missing.

Well, apart from the ARM/ARM64 differences in gapps, this method should work. Gapps are'nt ROM or phone specific. On Android File Host you can find 8.1 gapps for various phones.

Play store stuck at checking info

Hello everyone,

Thanks for the amazing job!

Please advice how i can make google apps to work on my oukitel k6000 plus After flashing madOS 8 and after flashing any Gaaps all google apps stuck at checking info...I also cant back stock rom with SP flashtool gives me error (0xC0060003).

Thanks in advance please help if you can.
[Android Software Development] runekock:
Did you reboot between flashing your rom and the gapps? That can sometimes cause problems.

Try wiping data and see if that helps.

Your problem with sp flashtool isn't related to gapps - ask about that elsewhere.
[Android Software Development] kdonchev:
Tnx for the reply .

Yes i did also i tried several versions of Gaaps samething.

Sorry i know its deferent issue but its related i just wanna fix my divice...
[Android Software Development] adstraylight:
Ok, your problems are likely caused by the setup wizard not having the permissions it needs.

Afaik, there are two ways around this.

1. Skip the wizard by pressing the four corners of the screen several times in a clockwise direction, starting at the top left corner. Then login via the play store, and install your apps manually.

2. Just before the setup wizard starts, there's an opportunity to swipe down the notification bar, this will give you access to the settings, from where you can grant permissions to all the apps that don't have them by default. Once you grant the permissions everything should be fine, but you can always add your WiFi password while you are there to be sure the Wizard can connect.

Good luck!

There seems to be some problem with Marshmallow GApps on my old phone running on Lineage OS 13. They were unexpectedly stooped every time. Can be problem with DPI, my mobile is moto e 1 gen of 540p screen

Also, can we flash higher versions like Nougat 7.0/7.1 Gapps on Marshmallow, will they work ??

No. GApps are version-specific. ( Plus that link you post has no relation to Open GApps, so it has nothing to do with this development thread. )

How can I update nano gapps?
[Android Software Development] sanguinesaintly:
Just flash the latest nano package. I use the official OpenGapps app.
[Android Software Development] VladFrey:
Is any wipe before or after required?

---------- Post added at 11:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 AM ----------

I use Nano Gapps . This package doesn't replace AOSP Phone, Messages, Calendar apps. I prefer to use Google Phone, Messages and Calendar apps from Play Market. What should I do with those AOSP apps in the ROM? Can I just freeze them? Can I delete Dialer.apk from system/priv app to completely remove AOSP Phone?
[Android Software Development] sanguinesaintly:
I just let the app dirty flash the updated version whenever I want. It will clean caches if you want, but I don't bother. Try it and see if it works for you.
[Android Software Development] VladFrey:
My point is - I don't want use AOSP Phone and etc. How can I completely remove those apps from the system?
[Android Software Development] icrunchbanger:
https://github.com/icrunchbanger/android-debloat-script
[Android Software Development] VladFrey:
So, just delete Dialer.apk from system/prv app is not right way to uninstall unwanted AOSP app from the ROM?
[Android Software Development] icrunchbanger:
That is the right way. I created the script because of laziness. Just remove the folder of apk via file manager or adb and reboot afterwards.
[Android Software Development] OreoLasagne:
Hi! I'm kindly asking if there is any zip that fully gets rid of the existing google apps. If there is, where can I find it?
[Android Software Development] DiamondJohn:
From my understanding, some of your existing binaries on the phone are replaced by an install, so I would guess your only real choice is either a nandroid or a dirty flash of your existing ROM, as the pre-install version fo those binaries may be specific to your device-ROM combination.
[Android Software Development] OreoLasagne:
Thanks for your reply, but my problem is, my current ROM already has gapps, but with neither google play services nor play store. Tried installing them as normal apks, and play services crashed. Flashed OpenGApps after formatting my ROM's data, still the same. Google play services has stopped. On touchwiz 7.1.1 by the way.
[Android Software Development] DiamondJohn:
Your question is not opengapps specific, and you would therefore probably get a better response in the general questions thread. https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2259645

If you post, then it would be best to include your phone model, ROM/firmware, version and how you got yourself in this state. ie why flashing your original firmware would not fix your problem.

In case anyone who builds their own gapps from OpenGapps' repo is interested, after a bit of research on how grep works, I've done some fixes such as Daydream and VRService components not installing together, and Trusted Face not installing on Android Oreo with the new location of permission XMLs in some ROMs such as OmniROM.

The Daydream and VRService issue of installing half of the items was something I experienced last year, which still wasn't fixed until today.

Nexus 5 / LineageOS 14.1 / Gapps nano 7.1

Hello,

After flashing my Nexus 5 with the latest versions of LineageOS and Gapps nano, some apps, but not all, show an error 0 when installing. This is the case for Chrome and mydlink Home, for example.

Before flashing, it turns out that I've wiped the Dalvik cache, System, Data, Internal storage and Cache in TWRP. Could the problem come from this task? The version of the TWRP is as follows: 2.8.5.2.

What's amazing is that some applications are installed without problems.

I also want to say that everything worked properly with lineageOS and Gapps before the Swipe to Wipe.

I flashed my Nexus because I had a bug in receiving the call.

I uploaded the Chrome apk and there was no problem installing on LineageOS. But the update returns error 0.

I submitted my Nexus with factory configuration. No positive result.

Should he update TWRP?

If this is a hardware failure, why some applications are installed and updated without problems?

Would someone have an idea?
[Android Software Development] shaggyskunk:
Without looking any further - I'm going to say that you should be on TWRP 3.1.1-0 at least - The version of TWRP that you are using is very outdated ?

My device is Zuk Z2 Plus. I am currently running Viper OS 3.1.1 Nougat.

I flashed Open Gapps Pico dated 19.01.2018 along with the rom (Clean flashed).

But my device is shown as Uncertified in Play Store app.

I have used Open Gapps with other roms before and my device ll be shown as Certified only. This is the first time that my device is shown as Uncertified. I confirmed with users of the same rom that their device is certified and so this is not the problem with the ROM.

I tried clearing data and cache in Play Services app and Play Store app. Deleted my account and logged in again in Play store. No change.

Play Services Version - 11.9.51 (448-177350961)

Play Store Version - 8.7.10-all [0] [PR] 181799446

Play Service patch for Open Gapps

Hi there,

I was trying to install Open Gapps on my phone with a stock ROM based on AOSP. So far so good.

Unfortunately I was experiencing the known Play Service permission problem on boot/setup so that I am not able to finish the setup at all.

Now I know that there is a patch that fixes the permissions during setup to get the Play Service running.

Now my problem: I fail epically in finding a downloadable version of that patch, I only stumbled across the Java file on Git, but that's it...

Can someone please tell me where to find that (installable) patch and how to install it (TWRP?).

Thanks in advance

[Android Software Development] githyanki:

Shouldn't need gapps on a stock based rom, will probably cause the problems your getting if you do that.

If AOSP, you will need to give more info. Perhaps even a log from ADB.
