Hi,

Understandably you have faced many issues with NikGapps. Perhaps you can clarify what issues you were facing in a bit more detail so I can confirm if that's really an issue?

nikgapps.config

when you say config doesn't work correctly, what is not working? is it that you set the value to 1 in config and the app wasn't installed?

have you read the instructions of how to use NikGapps config?

custom builds

when you say doesn't work, what didn't work for you? could you point me to your pull request to get a better understanding of why custom build didn't work for you?

there are over 3000 custom builds created so far, any chance you are doing things differently? (again, I am not sure with your post if the issue was with creation of custom build or it's functioning)

other reports regarding permissions, ota survival

honestly, surprising to see you're taking a word of users who did not follow the recommended instructions. permission issues are associated to flashing gapps after first boot and it would be true for any gapps out there. is there any specific permission issue that you know of that is not working?

OTA is working perfectly fine. have you experienced this yourself?

I am finding a hard time understanding your judgement on the package definition. It is confusing to you? what in your understanding should be the right definition of packages?

the addons, customization of addons and gapps packages - every thing is working fine.

in summary, the issues that you have reported are subjective and a bit more clarity would give better understanding. from usage of config to video tutorial of how to build custom builds, all are in place and working for many, perhaps you are doing it differently?

Thanks,

Nikhil
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Nikhil:
hey,

might be a lack of socializing the information but you can put config file in the same folder as your zip file for your installer to read the config file.

I recommend you read this. The sequence is in order of it's preference.

Additionally, you can also instruct the installer to read the config file from the zip. helps when you are sideloading the zip and working on encrypted internal storage. more info here.

hope this helps!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] :
Thanks.

I never found the link you mentioned. All I remember is I went through FAQ section and grabbed info from there. I never checked the blog section.

I think you should make info more accessible. You can create backlinks of these useful info on your home page. This will make a bit easier for beginners.

Never happened to me. But it can happen when using old version of config file with newer NikGapps package.

Always check latest config file when downloading a new Nikgapps package.

Yes, NikGapps packages could've been better. I prefer using the config file and debloater but most people want a package that just works out of the box.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Retrial:
I also mentioned that some infos are hidden in blogs and should be more visible in the website.

I use always the latest config.

I don't see how Flame is bloated while NiK have even vanced on the basic package, but even like that the config usage is clean and simple which everyone can modify it and it just works. Most people nowdays looking for ready out of the box solutions and here I come on the conclusion that Flame covers most of the users out of the box without or with less issues.

I think we went too far with OT here, we better continue our conversation if that matters, in my thread. 😛

Which gapp is best for this built?.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Nikhil:
Hi,

thanks for taking your time and providing details.

I think I am still trying to understand what went wrong with regards to config implementation. I'd just like to clarify a few pointers.

you can place nikgapps.config in the same location as your zip and the installer will pick that up, there are more supported locations if that can be someone's preference

when you set a value in nikgapps.config, it detects it correctly. 0 means skipping, 1 (default) means installing and removing corresponding aosp apps, 2 means installing and keeping the apps, -1 means uninstalling the app. (Reference)

if you ever try it out again and face challenges, feel free to reach out to me

NikGapps also started with two packages it is due to dynamic requests of packages from several users that we ended up adding more variants and shuffling different apps across variants. Your recommendation here makes sense to me (both the definition and the visibility of package definition page) and I will discuss it with my team but we've had several such discussions before where a group of users were not comfortable with the definition of package and they had their reasons which were reasonable.

The custom builds implementation was solution to that, users could define their own package and build custom gapps. it is almost impossible to find a definition that is perfect for every user.

Vanced Manager - Originally, we had YouTube as part of basic package which was taken over by Vanced YouTube and then Vanced Manager (after we lost the ability to simply replace stock youtube with vanced youtube).

Knowing this wasn't a Google App, it was set to 0 by default. so if you're a first time user, you don't setup anything and flash basic package, vanced manager will not get installed.

I've seen people mixing Core package with CoreGo or skipping playstore thinking they don't need it. or just keeping one of the SetupWizard component. Usually that's where things go wrong.

I checked your pull request, it wasn't the case. then the reason for bootloop can only be narrowed down when logcat is shared.

the network/internet permissions - like I said, flashing gapps after first boot is a bad idea.

OTA survival issue - usually when there are mainstream changes (like addon_version upgrade to 3), stuff breaks, and gets fixed only when it is reported. I can confirm that right now, OTA is working fine.

yeah I understand!

also, I am not here to convince you to use NikGapps, feel free to use FlameGapps or any other gapps that you prefer. But if you ever try NikGapps again and run into issues, feel free to share the installation logs and I'll assist.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Nikhil:
yes, I agree with you. I'll work on that.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] amn1987:
I had used BitGApps for years before switching to NikGApps and been using it ever since. After facing the issue of high CPU usage and massive battery drain continuously due to Play Services I tried a bunch of GApps packages but the issue persisted. Anyway after flashing Flame the system went into an infinite bootloop. This was the second occurrence. I have never got it working for some reason.

Hi,

I don't know if it's ROM related but after upgrading OTA to the latest 8.2 Build (Build 20220313) I now get an error by Google Play Store trying to upgrade my Netflix App saying that the new App is no longer compatible with my Device.

Does anyone else got this issue with the Poco F1 and Version 8.2?!

How to fix it?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Retrial:
The latest crDroid version 8.3 is based on A12L/A12.1. You need to make clean install to move to that version since it's on different base. Probably the version u are now have broken SafetyNet and is fixed on latest 8.3.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] WolverineCTX:
So in order to make it work properly again I'm forced to upgrade to a Version I don't want to use right now? That's sad to hear, because I just got my Phone setup again just a couple of weeks ago switching over to Version 8.2

Well, I guess I wait (until some Bugs are fixed) if there is no other solution...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Retrial:
You won't get any further OTA update if you stay on 8.2 version. OTA will work from 8.3 and afterwards, so soon or later you will have to update. Unfortunately new android version (12.1) released and is recommended to clean install, you can try dirty flash if you want but you may encounter bootloop.

8.3 have less bugs compared to 8.2, I don't know what you mean about bugs.

If you wanna stay on 8.2 and fix the SafetyNet you can try to root and use magisk modules for safetynet.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] WolverineCTX:
Okay, as I said, I'll update but not right now ;)

After fixing the first few Bugs that are reported here I'll switch.

I came from a real old Version (I think 6.8) and switched to 8.2 - not using Magisk with this Version... maybe I'll try that for now and see if that can Fix the Netflix Problem.

Thanks anyway for your quick replays and have a nice Sunday.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Retrial:
No worries take your time.

If you can tell me only which bugs you talking about so I can take a look if are fixed or something.

There isn't any major bug in crDroid right now :p
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] WolverineCTX:
Well, I just read your comments from yesterday where you confirm that for example setting a custom ringtone and add emergency contact doesn't work... just to name these two ;) :P
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] WolverineCTX:
@Retrial

If I may ask... could you provide me with a Link to Magisk that I can use for the fix?!

I'm still a kind of noob and sometimes get confused by all these different Version some things provide, sorry
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Retrial:
Yes, ringtone is already fixed and gonna roll out on next update. About emergency contact I don't think it's a big deal atm, also I don't know if it's crDroid bug yet :p

Anyways, take your time and move to latest version whenever you feel u ready.

About Magisk modules go to my POCO F1 Ultimate Collection & Guides thread at Magisk section, you will find the modules there. I personally don't use root and modules so I can't help much. Someone else who use them maybe can guide you better.

Btw I don't know if these gonna fix the issue.

Just wanted to let you know i had the same issue on CR 8.2. Safetynet is definitly failing on that version now. I tried all the Magisk fixes and nothing worked to fix it. Upgrading to 8.3 did fix it though. Not ideal for you as you just upgraded, but it seems to be the only way to fix it for now.

Hi guys,

I recently installed Lineage Os 18.1. today I tested some navigators for the car, Google Maps and Waze. Waze once set the road route remains blocked at the beginning (it doesn't work in fact). Google Maps, on the other hand, starts regularly but goes crazy on the way: the marker goes off the road and maps continually reassigns the route. I think it is a GPS problem, but you tell me. The Gapps installed are the Open Nano ...
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] r4czek:
Hey Felicita M., did you figure this problem out?

I believe I got the very same issue - in general both Maps and Waze show correct location, but they go crazy or get stuck once start navigating.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] Felicita M.:
hi. You should change gapps, and I reccomend to clean flash lineage. Also, consider to move to a more updated rom ;)
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] r4czek:
Hey, thanks a lot for the answer! :)

By "change GApps" you mean: switch to MindTheGapps from OpenGApps? Or choose a higher OpenGApps variant?

I went against LineageOS recommendations (https://wiki.lineageos.org/gapps) and installed OpenGApps pico (open_gapps-arm64-11.0-pico-20220215.zip to be exact) instead of MindTheGapp, though I don't remember why. I guess that's what causing problems.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] Felicita M.:
maybe problems came from that, recommendations should be taken seriously!

Anyway, consider moving to Lineage 19.1 and join official A50 groups in Telegram for more support

So I posted earlier about not getting OTA updates. Turns out apparently my phone is locked by Verizon as both they and Samsung have confirmed. What's weird for me however, is that I can still use my phone. I don't get any regional lock errors when I place my new simcard in. It works perfectly actually. Only problem I'm having is with the OTA updates. Does anyone know if it's possible to have your phone locked by a carrier but still be able to use it? If so, is it possible to unlock the phone without going through Verizon's 60 day period of network use? Looking online, all these sites keep talking about sending an unlock code. My phone doesn't request one so don't know what to do.
