Went to the GitHub branch, read the .sh script, saw the same basic generalities as one could gather from https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2684210

Although I could be incorrect, it's likely (since I've followed those steps one by one, many times, on many devices, until eventually you get 'permission denied') that my time is still best spent right where it is ;).

It's quite common to take tutorials already on XDA, swap out a binary, write a batch script, then tell others they're wasting their time when that doesn't cut it for them :confused::confused::confused::silly::silly::silly:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ac.3:
Yes sure why not except that I dont even use Windows and I personally wrote the bash script and I gave it to someone in a xda off-topic group to write the batch script so next time you swing that judging bat of yours try to make sure you're actually on point Sherlock :):)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LilAnt530:
Okay, I'm not doubting any of what you're saying is 100% accurate, as i believe that anybody could follow the link I provided to the "Universal Root Method" thread, & do the typing themselves & come out with a shell/batch script that has an = source. :)

Hi,

I'm just trying your skript. But I guess I am doning something wrong.

The cmd-Window in my windows opens and then I have to press any kind of button. After that it tells me

--- Starting ADB ---

* daemon started successfully *

After that nothing happens anymore. I have waited 5 minutes. Do I have to wait longer? Or what could be the reason that it does not move on?

Many thanks for your help.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashwinrg:
Read forum rules. Request warez and asking solution for them not allowed on xda. I hope you understand.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haxmahn:
The definition of warez: software that has been illegally copied and made available. Practically no warez... Lucky patcher is not warez and the support patch doesn't make any so your point is not right.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashwinrg:
So according to you what is purpose of lucky patcher. I am 100% sure that this thread going to closed soon by forum moderators.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haxmahn:
Not gonna lie. Lucky patcher certainly doesn't do any good to any developer BUT that doesn't mean it's warez. It DOESN'T create any warez. It analyzes the apps in your phone and doesn't create "illegal" copies of software not bought. So technically no rules were broken...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haxmahn:
And I'm not trying to use it to cause any harm to a developer. I 'm making an app but because this error I cannot test the security of the in app purchases.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Lucky patcher and all mentions of the app are banned on xda. You will find no help here.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0087:
Lucky patcher IS considered warez on xda. Yes, it does have some other uses that fall outside of that definition, but as long as it can be used as warez, the discussion thereof is strictly prohibited on this site.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troyd28:
Is anyone experiencing Google play issues on their Nexus 6p. No wifi or cellular data? In order for it to work I have to delete the host file but then after it does the same thing. Doesn't work.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coremania:
A bit confused, Google play, no wifi and Mobil data, why you delete the hosts file. It's not related to each other.

Which rom do you use, and what did you do or what happens that you don't have wifi or Mobil data. Are you on a clean flashed rom ?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troyd28:
I'm actually on pure Nexus room 7.1.1 all of a sudden. It started doing that out of nowhere. I am connected to WiFi and do have data. Not sure why deleting the host file fixes it but after a while it works after I keep deleting the host file. I never had this issue before till 3 days ago, which is very strange. Maybe it was a Google play store update?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coremania:
Ah, ok, that sounds different, first I thought you have no wifi and Mobil data. But no, switching between nougat and Oreo these days and no Google update leads me to such issues. If you like to stay on your current rom, wipe cashes and system and dirty flash your rom, maybe with updated gapps. Perhaps the lazy way will fix your issue ;)

Edit: I guess you tried wiping playstore and playservices data before .
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troyd28:
Yea I tried that but doesn't work. I never switch to Oreo lol I've been on 7.1.1 pure Nexus for the longest lol
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coremania:
Oreo isn't that bad. Try the superxe Oreo rom, battery life is good, nice aroma install, it's a good rom.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troyd28:
I figured it out, it's Google play updated itself silently so I reverted back and now it works flawless.

Hi, I'm trying to install the GApps on my phone, recently I puted lineageOS 14 on it, but when I try to flash the GApps I get the following error "architeture error, you need a 25 SDK. You have , (yeah, it doesnt show)", I tried the amr and amr64 without good results. What can I do? Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icrunchbanger:
Wrong thread.

Anyway you need GApps for android 7.1.X. Download correspondent one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaybeee22:
I tried just about everything mentioned above... I finally tried to simply delete the Google TTS app (approx 20mb) and reattempt.

The gapps flashed 100%, no error. The size of the file was a bit smaller, so I'm guessing the 20mb was a real squeeker.

Super annoying as I just wanted to try and get Google Play (store) on the Raspberry Pi 4. I tried a few other OS's, this is the closest I've come, and the only that has worked as I want to emulate Android and Install .APK files.. All other OS's failed.

The Raspberry Pi 4 is neat so if anyone was thinking the same here you go, I have yet to install exactly what I want.. but I can say that after deleting the "googletts-arm.tar.lz" from the open_gapps-arm-9.0-pico-20210604 .zip manually. I remember doing this on phones once and it worked.. so I figured give it a shot. I flashed the gapps, factory reset, and when I did my reboot I was met with the Google "Welcome" screen and knew everything was installed... and tested yes it works!

Credit to the guy who did this article, but just follow the above instructions or picture as illustrated. I have a 64GB card running Lineage-16.0 but it says it's only about 3-4GB and only 2GB Free, which is weird but I don't know this OS very well.

I recently purchased the Raspberry Pi 4 8GB in hopes it could be a source to stream and watch my security cams, browse the web, literally simple stuff I do on a laptop that gets hot and eats up power. This little device is still new and innovative and having kinks worked out, yes it can run Windows 10 but that version of Windows 10 is not a true 64-Bit and does not allow me to load the programs I normally do such as Bluestacks for emulating Android which is super easy and covers most of the nonsense apps I run in the background... as well as a few others that no longer run on Windows 7, or only run on Windows 10.. Hopefully Raspberry pi4 gets fixed up but until it has 100% fixed Windows 10 I think Lineage + Google Play will have to suite!

It's actually working very well, a little slower than I expected but considering that this device is so tiny I am impressed as it's a lot cooler and saving power vs my old clunky laptop that sits and provides the same applications around the same speed.View attachment 5329805
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaybeee22:
I can confirm this worked and has been successful for the most part, maybe not the fastest OS for the Raspberry PI 4 (specifically on a 22" display vs a touch screen/tablet) as this OS would be a lot nicer on a touch screen, not very friendly for the keyboard/mouse.. but still works well.

Slimming down that 120mg gapps.zip did the trick, just delete the Google Text to Speech app (20mb) manually by opening the .zip with WinRar and under /GApps you'll see only 4 files, the "googletts-arm.tar.lz" was the one I right clicked, selected Delete.. it slimmed the .zip file saving 20mb, and that was really the turning point... I guess the OS was running slim come available HD space. Which is odd because after installing Google Play Store, I have downloaded numerous applications & games, I've even tested Clash of Clans.. which is not very fun with a mouse/keyboard and is a tad slow.. but it WORKS!

I just wanted a machine I could donate from one of my accounts as well as watch my IP Cams around the house via Wyze's Google Play Store App. I've had some issues with my older IP Cameras but mostly can always view them in VLC player and I tested and it indeed worked.

Hope this helps, spent an hour banging my head trying to remember how I used to make the gapps.zip's flash on my older cell phones w/ Cynanogenmod.... And to give credit this was the tutorial I used... Maybe there is something newer out there I am not sure... I will be looking into Cyanogenmod later for hopefully better performance.

So I've been pinching files from the latest Bixby, and mixing and matching with my s-voice APK and suprisingly, s-voice is starting to have all these new features. You can control settings, turn on camera and take a picture, tell it to read out your latest sms, and she will, then she will ask if you want to reply or ignore, tell it to open YouTube and find whatever, etc.. I'm going to try to upload it, and if anyone wants to try it and see if it works for them, or wants to help make it better or whatever, yeah. I'm just a tinkerer, so maybe someone could make something really cool. Lemme know. Here's the link. I just zipped the svoice and lib folder from my priv apps section. 3.00-0 is the svoice I'm using. I can't remember where I downloaded it, but its on Xda somewhere where there's a bunch of ported nougat apps. But maybe you can just unzip my file and install it. I dunno. I'm dumb. Try it! If it sets your phone on fire, then buy a new phone. I am using a Samsung galaxy note 3 T-Mobile, by the way. K. Bye.

Just went on emui.huawei.com to copy and provide a link of an EMUI 5 update for an user in need, and this i what I've got (see pic in attachment). Huawei already removed almost every package from their consumers site, and the page will be even closed standing to what is wrote on the pop-up notice... What do you think about this (in my opinion) bad move that Huawei choose to make about update packages?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Enddo:
What a strange move with a pure PR reason given too
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RedSkull23:

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RedSkull23:
Yeah the necessity to have a secure package ready to flash that could fix your phone is the thing that matters most, minding at the fact that developers could rely on original sources...

Exactly my point of view and even my feeling about it man.

Even not-noob users that count on finding official firmware directly by OEM official site!

Yes but firmware finder never could be satisfying compared to an accurate package SURELY compatible with your phone variant, provided by your phone's manufacturer, and so, 100% working!

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] RedSkull23:
Definitely agree with you, is just the minimum that a person could except from his phone's brand. Even the time that they keep supporting phones on updates is minor than other manufacturers, (Samsung for example) and they decide to remove released packages too now.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bratzilla:
Ugh. As a Mate 2 user I thought my firmware had disappeared due to age. Now apparently this is a trend for Huawei. Can you say "forced obsolescence" folks?

For what it's worth, I did find the following link from Huawei that seems to house the firmware:
