Yeah although since you're running 7.0 it isn't failproof, but if it doesn't work you can simply disable the module and reboot and it'll be disabled, that's the power of Magisk
[Magisk] VR25:
CHANGELOG -- v2017.8.14-Beta

* Complete redesign -- the installer finds a regular OpenGApps package, "turns it upside down" then installs it as a Magisk module.

* Extremely small package (~26KB)

* Includes "gupdate" utility (xbin) for easy GApps update.

README.md

# Magic GApps
# VR25 #@xdadevelopers

***
**Disclaimer**: don't blame me if you end up triggering a nuclear disaster with this module! You do everything at your own risk.

***
**Description**

Turns a regular OpenGApps Package into a Magisk module -- systemless GApps.

Make sure you have enough free space in /data for GApps installation.

Run "gupdate" as root to update GApps [and Magic GApps installer].

MGA installer and "gupdate" utility look for the latest "open_gapps-*.zip" file in the following directories (in order):

- /external_sd/.fbind/Download/OpenGApps
- /external_sd/.fbind/Download
- /data/media/0/Download/OpenGApps
- /data/media/0/Download
- /external_sd

Notice that this is compatible with "Magic Folder Binder (fbind)" default setup. That's a "small" bonus. ;)

Later on, I might add an option to download OpenGApps packages from the command line.

***
**Note**: due to the nature of this module, BOOTMODE installation is currently not supported, nor easily adaptable. Installation will faill with exit code 1 in BOOTMODE. Install from RECOVERYMODE only.

v2017.8.15-Beta

* Fixed a couple of "gupdate" bugs. -p and -r options work as expected now.

I built a standalone sysconfig patcher module (does the same as the -p option). This one is for those who want the patches right after installing Magic GApps.

If you are familiar with "DozeGMS" or something similar, both the -p option and the standalone module enable that. However, these 2 patch ALL the XML files inside etc/sysconfig (including those from the ROM itself), as opposed to only google.xml. That means all the other packages besides GMS are also removed from the power and data whitelists.

... Before I forget!

[MENTION=3290808]rignfool[/MENTION] & [MENTION=7086291]demonoidmaster[/MENTION], big thanks for the idea & resources! Proper credits will be given later on, you sneaky contributors! ;)
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
You're welcome
[Magisk] VR25:
v2017.8.16-Beta

* Added options to patch sysconfig upon installation. Check README.

* Minor optimizations

* Updated reference
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
Man this is game changing though, having a module thats now small in size (not having gapps prebundled) and it then grabbing opengapps zip downloaded from the OpenGapps app (from full to pico, user select) and reflashing itself with it integrated is so amazing

I wonder though does it repack itself as a seperate module or ?

Anyways I'll switch from opengapps back to using this and test and stuff, but i figure that I'll have to wipe dalvik/art, cache and System then reflash my rom and wipe any com.android.google.* folders from /data/data and /data/user_de/0 first and a few other files so i don't get any weirds issues, though i might just leave it alone and just go from opengapps to this without touching the rest, since pico gapps be it installed to /system or as a module are the same regardless chances are it'll read/write data in /data/data & /data/user_de/0 just fine
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
So wiped /system in twrp and reflashed my rom then tried flashing this but for some reason it just fails (note i should've copied the log oops). Does it autofail based on if it detects that there's google data folders present in /data/data or such stuff?

Edit: tried through Magisk, app FC's
[Magisk] VR25:
It shouldn't have failed, even with OpenGApps installed (apps + data). Installation from Magisk Manager is currently not supported, though. The OpenGApps "Aroma" variant is also not supported.

Make sure your downloaded OpenGApps zip name starts "exactly" with "open_gapps-".

Also, note that the installer looks for the latest package in the following directories (in order):

- /external_sd/.fbind/Download/OpenGApps

- /external_sd/.fbind/Download

- /data/media/0/Download/OpenGApps

- /data/media/0/Download

- /external_sd

Don't forget the log next time. ;)

Also, I strongly advise you to always read the README thoroughly before installing/updating this module.

Taking this opportunity to push a new version...

v2017.8.17-Beta

* Bug fixes and optimizations

* Added option to persistently and systemlessly patch "/system/etc/sysconfig/*" across updates, for data and battery savings. Check README for more info.

Edit: [MENTION=7086291]demonoidmaster[/MENTION], for performance, time and safety concerns, the module doesn't repack itself. Instead, it modifies the recovery environment (temporarily) and OpenGApps install scripts only (it doesn't make changes to the actual open_gapps-*.zip file).
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
Yeah i did have the opengapps zip in Download folder, exact name type as i use the app to dl the zip but I'll try the new update you just pushed in your last message
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
Edit: same deal, error with can't unzip

Attached is a log, tried installing but nada
[Magisk] VR25:
Try the attached zip. The previous one was corrupted somehow.

Also, put your GApps zip in the folder "/external_sd/.fbind/Download/OpenGApps". It must contain only the gapps zip file, nothing else. There's a bug causing the installation to fail if the target search folders contain too many files.

I'll fix that next.
[Magisk] nwlun:
[MENTION=5228676]VR25[/MENTION] I don't understand how to install this as I keep getting google play service crash message pop up every second.

Step

1) clean install ROM and boot up without any open gapps flash via twrp

2) download latest magic gapps module from magisk manager

3) after it self install, I reboot

4) then google play service keep crashing and I can't access any google app at all

Its the step above correct?
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
Ah i see, mines /data/media/0 though so I'll stick to what you said

---------- Post added at 03:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 AM ----------

Use the beta version instead, i won't go into detail about the difference between the old module (also hosted in magisk repo) vs the new one VR25 made
[Magisk] Anarchy16:
is this step correct ?

1) install rom

2) install magisk

3) reboot

4) install this beta zip through TWRP

5) reboot
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
No need to reboot on #3
[Magisk] Anarchy16:
okay thanks, but is it normal the beta zip size only 20+ KB ?
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
[MENTION=5228676]VR25[/MENTION]

So checked the log, seems it screwed up because it tried looking for the sdcard partition first instead of internal storage (also added a pic to show you about gupdate -p not working right)

Physical - /data/media/0

Other point of access- /storage/emulated/0

Other point of access simplified - /sdcard
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
Read about the new module type a few posts back, you'll understand

Instead of him updating the module with gapps in it, he made a module that rather grabs any open_gapps-* zip file it finds on your device and installs it systemlessly ..All you gotta do is download your opengapps zip from either the website or better yet just use the app of the playstore to dl the zip, once done open up a terminal app, run as superuser (run "su") and then run "gupdate" and it'll find the zip and update your gapps
[Magisk] nwlun:
So every reboot do we need to apply the step above since it is systemlessly?
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
No, wtf? You only do what i said only if theres a new opengapps updata available, you then use terminal to update your installed gapps and that's it

It's no different than flashing opengapps in twrp, only difference is this module installs your gapps zip to /data/app instead of to /system

NOTE: If you don't know what you're doing then don't fiddle around with your device, if your system partition has tons of space then install your opengapps zip (or anyother gapps package you use) the normal way in twrp. Please.
[Magisk] pinoholo:
Is this normal?

I literally just clean flash my OP3 with VertexOS and magisk and I let it boot and go to TWRP again and flash magic_gapps and type this in the terminal and it got stuck

Am I done something wrong?

edit: I put open_gapps zip in data/media/0/download/OpenGApps
[Magisk] VR25:
I see...

I found a better way to implement the "OpenGApps package finder."

"gupdate -p" bug might have to do with a typo in the script.

[MENTION=6975315]pinoholo[/MENTION], a new version will be pushed soon to clear all this mess.
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
Have to be booted into Android

Open terminal and run

su

gupdate -u

Either ways you might get the same issue as me, wait until VR25 fixes that
[Magisk] pinoholo:
It's shifted to right due to long text before the command
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
Command doesn't work without superuser access hence why you have to do "su"then press Enter key

Then you just do "gupdate -u"
[Magisk] pinoholo:
Am already did type su before the command gupdate -u

You can see it from my my screenshot I posted above
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
You said you booted into twrp, installed the module then ran the terminal to do it, doesn't work in twrp only in a booted state

Either ways though i said it before bugs will be fixed don't worry
[Magisk] pinoholo:
Thank you, appreciate it
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
No problem, just wait up on VR25 he's the dev behind this awesome module, rn this is in beta stage to replace his original module type (module used to come along with gapps in it but due to his internet it's hard to maintain, so he made a module that can be run whenever a user wants to update his gapps after a new opengapps zip update arrives, way better)
[Magisk] Sukhi:
Does this also apply for a fresh installation of GApps? I flashed the Beta Zip through TWRp and i can see the Magic GApps in the "Modules". If my understanding is correct, i need to open terminal run su and finally run gupdate? I downloaded the pico opengapps and have placed them in Downloads/OpenGapps folder.
[Magisk] demonoidmaster:
gupdate -u

If you run gupdate all it'll do is tell you the types of commands gupdate can run and what they do

As for using this after having already some gapps (as you know opengapps flashes it's zip package to /system/app and /system/priv-app) you should rather wipe /system, reflash your rom, magisk, anything else you need but NOT the opengapps zip because this module grabs the zip and installs it as normal styled user app (/data/app) since this module is made for people that don't have enough space in /system for gapps and instead would want it put in their data partition since that's where the biggest majority of your space is, meaning that if your system partition isn't big enough for let's say a Full (being the biggest gapps package) that's what this module is for

So yeah, module makes your opengapps package install to /data/app instead of you flashing it in twrp and it going to /system

NOTE: Do not try to use the opengapps aroma installer version of Full , isn't compatible yet

Note2: place it like this. Download*/OpenGapps not Downloads/OpenGapps
[Magisk] VR25:
v2017.8.18-Beta

* Fixed "gupdate -p"

* Fixed "OpenGApps package not found"

* Fixed "sysconfig/*" patching upon installation

* Added options to specify "GAppsDir" (default is /data/media/0/Download/OpenGApps) and "auto_repatch_sysconfig" across updates (true or false)

**Disclaimer**: don't blame me if you end up triggering a nuclear disaster with this module! You do everything at your own risk.

**Description**

Install a regular OpenGApps Package as a Magisk module -- systemless GApps. This doesn't mean the module modifies "open_gapps-*.zip" files to be systemless compatible. Rather, it tweaks the recovery environment for systemless installation, extracts, patches & runs the OpenGApps install scripts, then magic happens. Just for extra clarification, "open_gapps-*.zip" files aren't modified in any way, shape or form.

Make sure you have enough free space in /data for GApps installation.

Run "gupdate" as root to update GApps [and Magic GApps installer].

MGA installer and "gupdate" utility look for the latest "open_gapps-*.zip" file in /data/media/0/Download/OpenGApps by default. Change the search directory in the file "/data/media/0/MagicGApps/config.txt" (persistent settings) or run echo "GAppsDir=PATH" >/data/_d (nonpersistent, overrides config.txt).

Later on, I might add an option to download OpenGApps packages from the command line.

***
**Notes/tips**

Due to the nature of this module, BOOTMODE installation is currently not supported, nor easily adaptable. Installation will faill with exit code 1 in BOOTMODE. Install from RECOVERYMODE only.

Prior to installing, run "touch /data/_p" or set "auto_repatch_sysconfig=true" in the config.txt file located in /data/media/0/MagicGApps (persistent across updates) -- to systemlessly patch/auto-repatch "/system/etc/sysconfig/*" for data and battery savings upon installation/updates. You can also do that later by running "gupdate -p" as root. "gupdate -r" reverts the changes.

"touch /data/_g" excludes "gupdate" from installation (debugging).

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] nph642:
Hi everyone, I'm in a particular situation. I bought an used J710MN but I forgot to check that the IMEI number that's under the battery matches with the one that appears in the software. It turns out that they didn't

BUT: Before I bought it, I made a test call and the phone was working OK. I had no problems.

After that I installed TWRP with Odin in order to root it. That's when the phone stopped working.

What I did:

I believed that the phone wasn't working because the physical IMEI is reported (I checked) so:

1. I flashed superSU and rooted the phone

2. I installed Xposed and IMEI changer and I set the IMEI of an old phone of mine, but nothing happens. In fact, although the physical IMEI is reported, the "soft IMEI" that the phone had initially was NOT reported and as I said, I tested the phone when at the moment I bought it.

Something must have changed when I installed TWRP.

Additional info:

1. I have NOT an EFS backup.

2. I currently have a VALID IMEI address (the one that I installed with IMEI changer)

3. In Settings -> About Device -> Status, I see the following:

IP Address: [shows an IP address]

Wi-Fi MAC address: [shows a valid MAC address]

Bluetooth address: Unavailable

Serial number: [shows an 11 characters length string]

4. In Settings -> About Device -> Status -> IMEI Information, I see the following:

IMEI: [shows a valid IMEI address]

IMEISV: 01

4. I can use wifi without problems

5. When I try to make an EFS backup from TWRP, I get the following:

[COLOR="Red"]Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer.

Also I have a question: Could the carrier still know the physical IMEI number if the phone has a different IMEI number in software?

I've got the same... after installing " twrp-3.1.1-0-j7xelte " on Galaxy J7 J710F/DS

well, I fixed it as far that only one ERROR is left: " Failed to mount '/cpefs' (Invalid argument) ".

for that installed " CF-Auto-Root-j7xelte-j7xeltexx-smj710f " with ODIN and then reinstall " twrp-3.1.1-0-j7xelte ".

But can't find any Info to this ERROR MESSAGE.

Acutually it is still not possible to install any ZIP with TWRP... no ROM, no SUPERSU, no MAGISK, no other RECOVERY

---------- Post added at 11:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 AM ----------

some more Info that might be important:

after install twrp-3.1.1-0-j7xelte (but before I wiped everything) the Stock-Rom made a ERROR MESSAGE when getting to the LockScreen (but interrupted by SIM PIN Input :D )

It said "device can not be started, integrity check failed" ... and that a factory reset is needed... I did it often, but always same ERROR.

Now trying to install custom ROM but twrp-3.1.1-0-j7xelte tell " Failed to mount '/cpefs' (Invalid argument) "

I have a US996 with an unlocked bootloader. I installed TWRP (although I still can't get it to decrypt data). I installed the latest SuperSU - and there were no errors (although without the ability to decrypt, TWRP couldn't wipe Dalvik/cache).

But after rebooting, Root Checker still says I'm not rooted.

What am I doing wrong?
[SuperSU] Haphim:
Figured it out. Unless I disable the default encryption to formatting Data, installing SuperSU fails. Once I format Data, the install works properly.

There's a few issues being reported and you should not have to format anything when updating SuperSU.

Hi,

I installed cube last night.. looks really good so far.

I'm off to the states soon with my XDA Orbit configured with Cube.

Does anyone have any suggestions for using a UK O2 XDA Orbit with Cube while in the states ?? - rather than find out the hard way :-)

Do I need to do anything to use my installed TomTom free?

Thanks
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Gajet:
Cube is cube, using it has no relevance to the country you are in.

From personal experience of travelling to the states, if you don't mind the data charges, install Windows Live Search, getting a GPS fix and searching for your nearest Wal-Mart etc is great.

Make sure you turn off any automatic data updates you don't need, ie weather etc.

For Tomtom, obviously you need the appropriate USA maps on your SD card and it's good to go. It found me some amazing shortcuts through Florida, however it also managed to find me a couple of dead ends. Roads change around alot in the states. Don't switch off common sense when switching on Sat Navs.
