[Q] Vegan-tab 5.1.1 already contains Gapps? - G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Am I correct, that the Vegan-tab 5.1.1 and or supplement already contains the google apps? I thought I read it somewhere here but I can't seem to find it again. I already have voice, talk, calendar, and the market seems to be full or close to it.
Can someone confirm this for me please? Thank you.

Correct. Market and all included...
I think only the Gingerbread versions of ROMs for the Gtablet currently don't have Google Apps included and need the gapps.zip. All of those are based off the CyanogenMod source tree and they use a GApps.zip package.

Yup. It's good to go out of the box.

Google Maps 4.2 for HTC Legend

I couldn't find Google Maps 4.2 in Market and installed it from .apk instead. Now the map is refreshing and loading very very slowly. Someone experiencing the same problem?
Also I do not have multi-touch in Google Maps 4.2.
nope, my works fine,
update to the newest rom through OTA or .exe from Legend Android Development Section. The code version name of rom: Legend_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.3_Radio_47.39.35.09_7. 08.35.21_release_130330_signed
you can find the topic here:

Maps 4.2 worked fine here, but now a problem exists with 4.3 version. Okay, can't find on the market as usual. But even installing the downloaded .apk doesn't work. With the .apk you can only uninstall or update the existing maps. But it only stays at 4.2, whatever I do.
Anyone having similar problems and a workaround?
I installed the stock RUU_Legend_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.3_Radio_47.39.35.09_7. 08.35.21_release_130330_signed ROM which comes with GoogleMaps 4.1 and pinch-to-zoom by default. I could not find GoogleMaps in the Market...

[Q] Market Apps Missing

I am one of those that stuck with bult 69XX (the leaked rom) instead of the official 8105 build.
I am however using the buil.prop from the official version and still have some apps still not showing up in my market.
The most prominent being Google Earth.
I've tried the usual: clear kalvik-cache, wait 24 hours, reboot with no luck.
Can anyone that updated their streak through the official channels that has not rooted it confirm they can actually see google earth in the market?
I'd like to know if I'm chasing ghost so I can give up seeing as I actually do have google earth installed through a direct APK link.
If you CAN see it, please state what build, any customisations and if you're rooted ot not

[Q] Google Maps Android API missing on CM10?

Device: Samsung Galaxy i9100P
ROM: CM10 Nightly - '10-20121007-NIGHTLY-i9100'
Modem: i9100XXLQ6
I can't seem to get the Google Maps API to install on my phone. I've tried various ROMS (all CM10 nightlies), as well as reinstalling Maps from the Play Store, but nothing seems to work so far.
When I'm in Instagram and I click on the Photo Maps sections I get:
"Photo Maps requires that the Google Maps Android API is installed on your device."
I've tried this method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837198) but that didn't work for me either.
Anyone got any solutions? Pretty annoying having this issue. Thanks in advance
Did you try flashing gapps after flashing CM10?

Sorry, should've mentioned that in the original post. Yes, I've tried flashing GApps again. No joy
No one else had this issue? Not sure why it's happening me. Friend is running the same ROM as mine (same GApps too) on an S2 and he's not having these issues.
Anyone able to help with this? Not ROM specific, tried loads.
Not able to install Foursquare from Store or any fitness tracking apps. Being told my device isn't compatible. Could it be linked?

[x86][GApps] FrankenGApps 20140826 4.4.x *UPDATED! Stable! Universal!*

DO NOT FLASH THIS ON A TOUCHWIZ ROM. AOSP BASED ONLY
This is a custom GApps package I created to work with x86 devices (namely, our tab) as the normal GApps packages available are arm-only. (and no, to those who would ask, it's not as simple as downloading PA-GApps and swapping the update binary. The actual files therein are NOT x86 compatible, namely, the libs.)
UPDATE 1: With the release of 4.4. for the P5210, I am pleased to announce that this is now a full, complete, stable GApps package
It contains everything found in the PA-GApps stock zip plus:
-Hackers keyboard
-Root browser
-Xperia home
note that Hacker's keyboard and Xperia home are just there in case google keyboard / google home don't work out of the box. I don't anticipate any problems, but just to be sure. After some feedback / testing i'll remove these if people want. Root browser however is here to stay.
UPDATE 2:
As of the 20140823 build, this is now a UNIVERSAL x86 GApps package, meaning it will work on ANY x86 device running 4.4.x with zero tinkering to the zip. I did this by using a slightly modified pa-gapps updater-script coupled with an x86 update-binary.
UPDATE 3:
The 20140826 build is mostly bug fixes. The updater-script in the 20140823 build was broken. This is now fixed. Google + was broken. This is also fixed.
Google keyboard was broken. This too, is now fixed.
Tested this build myself. All is well.
For those who want a ROM to try this with, head over to @moonbutt74 's thread "odds, ends tests". He posted a successful 4.4.4 build from a few days ago on i think the 4th or 5th post (though it is by NO MEANS dd ready. We're working on it)
DOWNLOAD LINK IS BELOW.
If you want to use this for any reason other than personal use, ask me first, unless you just want to include a link on your ROM thread. If you do want to include a link in your ROM thread, link to this thread, not the download link below.
Download link:FrankenGApps-x86-20140826
old builds:
20140823 build:
FrankenGApps-x86-20140823.zip
The updater script in this build is broken. On top of that, if you fix it yourself, google + and google keyboard are borked.
20140814 build:
FrankenGApps-x86-20140814.zip
This build only works with the tab 3 10.1.
Old legacy hackey build:
FrankenGApps-x86-20140813.zip
there is absolutely no reason to flash the 20140813 build over newer builds. The 20140813 build is an unstable / hackey 4.2 gapps port, I'm just posting it for reference purposes. Naturally this build is unsupported. Please download the new build(s) from OP.
if i flash the build of 14th then i stuck on samsung boot logo. firmware was stock rooted deodexed 4.4.2. i have tryed it twice but always stuck on boot logo.

I was sameway, so I just downloaded the update from "sammobile" installed it and used " super Su from chailfire to get root also used root explore to take out the apps I did not need.
@evilspawnas
 @ghforlife
Why did you flash this on a touchwiz rom?
This zip is meant for aosp based ROMs like cm11. (I tested this package on @moonbutt74's wip cm11 build, works like a charm)
Besides, TW Roms have GApps built in

Oh, sorry, but all the other devices have cm 11, it´s like my normal behaviour to flash gapps... shame on me
Just updated to 20140823.
As of now, this GApps package is universally compatible with all x86 devices running 4.4.x. Zero tinkering to the zip necessary.
Just updated to 20140826. This build fixes updater-script, google keyboard, and google +. Read "update 3" in OP for more info.
Nice
Another stone in building our road to CM11. Thanks.
I know many will used this update.
To be honest, I am forced to used the market, but try to stay away from C I A applications. I am sorry did I say C I A. My apologies it is the Alzheimer, I mean Google.

Hey brother don't dare to flash it.... It's not for a Touchwiz rom like pimpdroid or Cagrom., It's for AOSP rom like Omni rom , AOKP , CM11 , AICP etc....
Sent from my GT-S6802 using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks for the gapps, working on my 3830 AOSP rom.

These gapps are 6 years old and for older versions of android. Go to opengapps.org for android 7.1.2 based gapps.
And also why do you need instructions? Same as all gapps just flash the zip after flashing the rom

I have a tab 3 10.1 WiFi so if anything pops up around these threads I always have a look.
The tablet is still working fine for me without any gapps on it as I've found gapps are extremely heavy on such an old tablet. Instead I opted for a microg installation and it works perfectly (even being able to play games like bullet force or fwd assault) but i mostly use it for reading and cooking and that kind of stuff which it is perfect for.

Owhh, i see. I put this rom on my tab: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-3/development-10/rom-lineageos-14-1-t3587761
It does lag sometimes, but i removed some of the GApps it came with. I mean, the second i removed playstore some other Google apps stopped working so i had to delete them too. It's a bit better, but i dont play games on it, it's still laggy i should've chosen another ROM but i guess this is fine. Which ones are you using? If you want we can talk in discord, or here if you want, which ever way you fele comfortable. I can share the apps i have and etc, since we have the same tablet, finally i found someone in 2020 having the same device as i have! Ha. I'm still here, so if you reply and i wont answer, i will answer later, i have schedule to follow that's why
Ill wait for your response, anywhere, if you want dm me here, chat in this thread or check my discord, send a friend request and tell me here ur name so I'd accept it. You can also find me in the XDA discord server.

Hey, where have you been?

Google Services Framework - how to use apps that need them without any GApps

Hey there.
I am not a novice to Android but by no means do I understand how it all works in the background. So I need a little help understanding something that to me is not so obvious.
I have a phone, Huawei P8 Lite, which I haven't installed any GApps after I flashed a LOS 14.1 rom.
I mostly use F-Droid apps on it but occasionally I install a random Playstore app using Aurora Store (fork of YALPS).
Now, while most stuff on F-Droid is pretty seamless to install&use, the same is not exactly true regarding Playstore stuff which usually mentions the need for Google Services Framework (GSF) if memory serves me well. And since I don't have GApps, I don't have "GSF".
I know that some apps that require "GSF" still work apparently fine without "GSF".
But there are some other apps that mention requiring "GSF" and that actually fail to work. Regarding these latter apps, is there any workaround to make these apps work without installing GApps?
I know there's a pico and nano version of GApps, but even those install stuff on my phone that I really would rather not have installed in there.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
