Katkiss Marshmallow - Can't run Goggle Services/Play

I converted my TF7000T from 4.2.1 to KatKiss Marshmallow, using TWRP Manager on the installation end. Steps included boot access, rooting, wiping/formatting and flashing. Marshmallow functions fine. My problem is that I can't get Google Play or Google Services to run. I tried one installation that was a 'moderate' Gapps installation. It was completely unstable despite some of the apps actually updating. I then repeated the wipe and reinstall of KatKiss-026 and Android 6.0.1 with a minimal Gapps installation - just Google Play Store and Google Play Services. Google Play Services flashes constantly that it is not working. I am also not able to log into my Google Play Store account. I'm afraid I have an outdated version of Google Play. However, I cannot figure out a way to update Play Store or Play Services. Does anyone have a solution to this problem? If I could download a minimal Gapps zip that contained either the current, or update-able version of these two apps, I would also be in business. Help!!
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
You are running the wrong gapps package I think. You need to install the pico gapps and only the pico gapps package that is linked in the KatKiss OP.

And you have to flash rom, gapps and Supersu(if you want root) in the same recovery session together in that order. Every time. You cannot just flash a gapps package on MM rom anymore.

ROM, pico gapps, supersu - reboot

Oh - and to start out with I'd highly recommend you wipe, better format data before flashing. Wiping of cache and Dalvik goes without saying right?

Yes I did thanks, I haven't played around too much with it though - I did experience it to be very slow when trying to install Facebook app though. I do plan to start using it more often so time will tell.

Hello. First of all, I'm really sorry if this isn't a good place to find this new topic. I wasn't sure where should I create this topic. Anyway, I want to buy a new phone. But I'm not sure which phone should I buy. I want the phone to be not so big (smaller than 5.7" phones) and new,also with great software support (I want it to have enough custom things, like roms, kernels,.... in case that the phone's official support will end at someday anyway. It would be good if it has good camera and good sound quality,too. Is there such a phone available? Thanks in advance for helping me.

i dont know much about phone models..... but yeh what i know is

if your going to buy samsung then be care to buy an international version... because international version develop more roms....

and if you like ROMS/Custom Roms then dont buy a new phone .. because new phone's take much tome to struggle to present a custom ROM... else if u stuck at any situation you may less likely to find solution...

My thoughts are the LG G3, LG G4, or Nexus 5X. They all have pretty good audio quality and updates were not a problem from my experience. Also pretty good with custom software.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] pspkid:
Hi , i got my HTC today i am thinking to root it and install custom rom but i have a question ,if i unlock the bootloader and root it , i will not get updates from HTC server i know that but is there any way i can unroot and look bootloader and get to stock firmware and receive uppdates from HTC ?

and those who have installed custom Rom is there a big advantage ,battery specially ?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] vegetaleb:
Custom roms on the 10 (like previous HTC flagships) give you more tweaks, customization and sometimes speed, custom kernels can give better battery, root also give you access to apps like V4A and Titanium Backup.

For official OTA meaning receiving it on your phone from Wifi or mobile data, you have to restore an untouched system image and Boot (meaning stock recovery too) or flash a RUU (but this one will wipe your internal memory).

Though if the Firmware update is your concern, I just learned that you just rip it from the OTA (of your Cid number) Zip, and simply flash it in RUU Mode.

All these methods won't require S-off

You have some posted OTA zips just be sure you have the same Cid
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] pspkid:
Thanks but i didnt understand your last point ,see here is my problem i am staying in dubai and i have got only one update 1.30 (around 100MB)i am having auto focus issue , so how can i install OTA update manually ?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Haldi4803:
When you Unlock Bootloader you wipe everything.

After that you install TWRP via fastboot. Read Only.

Then make a backup of System IMAGE, just in case.

You can Flash systemless Root (from Dev Forum here) and systemless Xposed (if you want to....) and still get OTA Updates!

But... if you now want to install the OTA you have 2 Options.

A: reflash Stock Recovery from a OTA.zip anyone else provided and do a normal OTA, this will update the kernel aka Boot.img in which systemless Root and Xposed are stored. And the Recovery, so you need to reflash TWRP and Root and Xposed again.

B: install the OTA while TWRP is still installed.

This will update System but not included Firmware.zip

You can unpack the OTA.zip and the included Firmware.zip and then manually Flash Boot.img and Radio.img (no need for recovery.img as you want to keep twrp) then reflash Root and Xposed. Now you have about 75% updated.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] konsolen:
Or you could try flashfire on Tour rooted phone
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] jollywhitefoot:
Why not just flash the entire signed firmware.zip from the ota and be 100% updated? Why unzip it, break the signature, and only flash bits and pieces of it? I'm just not following the logic here.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Haldi4803:
Because it doesn't Flash in TWRP. I tried :(

Renaming the whole firmware.zip as 2PS6IMG.zip and putting it on ext_sd and flashing it it Download-mode might work and seems like a way easier Idea, agree on that.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] jollywhitefoot:
Of course firmware doesn't flash in TWRP.

If you're s-on, you have to flash SIGNED firmware in RUU mode. If you're s-off, you can flash signed or unsigned and from download mode or RUU mode. I just don't understand why you're telling people to break the zip signature to flash pieces of it when it's so much easier to flash the entire thing by either:

A) renaming firmware.zip to 2PS6IMG.zip (just rename it, don't open it or you break the signature), placing on external SD, reboot to download mode and let the phone prompt you to flash it

B) boot the phone in RUU mode ("fastboot oem rebootRUU" command from download mode) then flashing with fastboot (fastboot flash zip firmware.zip).

Either of those methods will get you 100% of the updated firmware.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] pspkid:
thanks for making it simple and clear , what firmware is latest ? i am running now 1.30.401.1 is there any newer available ?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Haldi4803:
The phone doesn't know you have TWRP installed instead of stock recovery.

If You Start the OTA and install it it will Reboot Into twrp and install System then Abort.

I always have to Problem of no computer. So all Fastboot Options are off for me, sorry for mentioning this complicated Update method. Listen to jollywhitefoot he knows the stuff ;)

Yeah, on Sony there were some ways to make Root persist in an OTA.

Does work here as well with Systemless Root as its in Boot.img. but when you Update Kernel it's gone. So I can't patch Boot.img and recovery.img at once :(
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] jollywhitefoot:
If you s-off you can remove stock recovery from the firmware.zip, flash the ota.zip in twrp and flash the modified firmware separately in download mode (or by 2PS6IMG.zip on ext_sd). Otherwise, you have to use the signed firmware from HTC which includes stock recovery, as you know.

So, for s-on, without a computer, to FULLY, 100% update and root, you need:

1) system_image backup with stock recovery and boot

2) external SD card

3) flashable zip with TWRP recovery in it renamed to 2PS6IMG.zip on root of external sd

4) superSU zip

Then:

1) restore stock system_image, boot and recovery

2) reboot to system

3) take OTA

4) reboot to download mode and allow 2PS6IMG.zip (with TWRP in it) to flash

5) reboot to recovery and flash superSU.zip

There may be alternative methods, but this is how I would do it.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] TomF1979:
Is it enough for point 1 to restore only the Stock Recovery

when twrp is always being Read only and systemless Root and Systemless AdAway are installed and no other changes on System?

Best Regards

Thomas
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] jollywhitefoot:
Yes. And I don't think you ever need stock boot either.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] TomF1979:
Thanks.

Only one question for point 4,

Must be only the Recovery.img in the zip File or inclusive the Android txt File?

Best Regards

Thomas
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] jollywhitefoot:
For the zip to be flashable you need the android-info.txt file.

Now bootloops when the SD is in, and gets stuck on the Windows Mobile screen when the SD card isn't inserted... I tried to hardboot but it has no sence since i'm not even able to boot correctly...

Bootloader shows:

IPL 4.17.0001

SPL 4.17.0000

No overclockin nor modding, except of the modded 5tab Homescreen.

Is my Herald bricked? If so, please help me to unbrick it...

[Wing, P4350 General] duprade:
Sounds like you need to install the official RUU for your phone. Go on your carrier's website and see if you can download it.

If not, you can try to install one of the ones on the Herald WIKI and see if that works.

can someone refer me which is the most stable rom for redmi 2 prime and in CM 13 i can't use my sd card as i can able to use it in MIUI.

please tell me which is best to rom to download as of now.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] yunusrw:
use CM 13 by Kumajaya
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Dyt199412syam:
Use cm13 official. Download it here https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=wt88047. Download the latest one! Use TWRP 3.0.0 by kumajaya as your main recovery. And for your sdcard in MM, it happens becoz MM has a feature that can be encript sdcard so it cant be accessible by another device and any custom recovery. Its not a bug. My suggestion, set your sdcard as a portable, do not use it as internal storage. But, the choice in your hand.!!!!
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Akhil137:
cm 13 is better or the Nexus experience?
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Ronnie.mac94:
NX experience ROM is smooth and stable! integrated with DT2W.

if you are going for another rom other than NX i would suggest you to use AICP it has more tweaks than CM13! with best battery backup!

Can u provide me a link AICP?

hi bro, is AICP stable enough for daily use

does it have some bug or problem if compared to cm13 nightly?
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Dyt199412syam:
If you wanna have more customizable rom, then use AICP official. It has more features, tweaks, and good battery backup and performance. And if you wanna have a simplicity rom but customizable too, then use Cm13 official. It has good battery backup and performance, 8 hours SoT exactly that i know. What your choice???
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Fortinho:
Guys, sorry for my question.

My girlfriend has a Redmi 2 1/8GB, with custom ROMs would it lose a lot of camera performance? Or the shots taken are similar to MIUI's one? Thank you.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] arc_knight:
Personally, after I switched from MIUI 6 to CM 11, I did think there was some lose in performance, but after careful clicking and giving the ROM sometime, the pictures were as good as MIUI. i have changed from CM 11 to CM 12 and now am on CM 13, and I think the pictures taken are really on par with the stock ROM even if its not equally good. I think the pictures taken on MIUI are crisp compared to pics taken on CM, so thats what we see as a difference. For a average person, I don't think it will matter in anyway. :good::good::good:

Although girls can get very picky... :D:p:p:p
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Fortinho:
Just finished to restore everything, flashed Tesla, thank you for your opinion :)

That's the point!
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] davidben73:
i already use cm13 bro and 8 hours SoT is just a lullaby. i never get that and will never because it's unlogic with internet usage. maybe if i use airplane it can get 8 hours SoT. but who will use smartphone without internet?

by the way, cm13 is very stable and great ROM. i just want to try another especially AICP for right now.

thx for your answer.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Dyt199412syam:
You think 8 hours SoT is just a lullaby. But it happened to me, i can get 8 h SoT with mobile data on, surfing on chrome, fb, insta, twitter, etc. 8 hours with SoT and Multitasking. Its a fact. I saw in cpu spy reloaded, cpu freq majority is in 400 MHz. Its very good for my batt backup. No lag, no heat.!!
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] davidben73:
what the hell?! which kernel you use? can you share with me your settings?
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Ronnie.mac94:
aicp is stable with lots of tweaks

cm has less tweaks than aicp!

and

nx is is smoother than aicp/cm

Those on a Voice plan also get stock shares. You have 15 days to claim your free share.

You can earn more shares by referring new people to T-Mobile. I believe you can earn up to 100 shares per year.

For the first week (June 7) customers can get:

Free movie rental from VUDU

There will also be random prizes to be won... and you don't need to be a T-Mobile customer to participate in the random prizes. :good:

T-Mobile is currently (and has been all day it seems) getting tanked with server hits. If you open the app and it shows that you have nothing, do not worry. They are aware of the massive amounts of server connections and are taking measures to correct the issue. Your offers will show up once it's all been fixed.

ProTip: Until the app works smooth and without issue for you, DO NOT spin the wheel. The wheel is a place to win additional things from T-Mobile. However, with the high volume of server requests currently, clicking "Play now" will only result in you losing the opportunity to actually spin the wheel. Again, something they are aware of and are working to fix it.

Anyone still doing these? I noticed that you can use the rental value ($5.50) on VUDU toward purchasing a movie. They have a selection of 9 films purchasable in HDX (HOLY CRUD) for $5. Soooo, assuming you like one of those, you can buy a digital copy for free. So far, I've nabbed The Happening (for watching with rifftrax), Blade II, and, the crown jewel, Team America because of this nifty tidbit.

Yes it should because it backed up /data which some devices have their internal sd partition. Extract the data and see. It should be there as long as you didn't store images on the external sd.
