Convert to use app and then flash gapps? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If I converted a few Google apps like Google plus or news stand etc to use app using titanium backup and then flashed gapps during custom ROM update, what will be the result? Will it be system app again or remain user app or will I have 2 copies?
Hammered from my Hammerhead!

Can't install Play store on CyanogenMod

Hi ,
I am a noob. I just installed CyanogenMOD 9 in my Sony Ericsson live but the problem is I can't install PLAY STORE, GMAIL etc. The apps can be installed but the problem is when I click(touch) on them to open nothing happens. Every other app is running good.
I have another question :
Though I survived the no-playstore horrible moment where nothing can be found to get any File manager or Titanium Backup which I use to restore all of my apps saved and backed up on my SD Card. Then I downloaded Titanium backup from their homepage using browser and restored some of my apps as per needed.
What does a person usually do to install apps after flashing CyanogenMOD?
Also, how can I install play store or Gmail app now?

Is your bootloader unlocked? Are you on cm9/10, because on the kernels of them cwm is integrated! :good:
Cwm isn't an app, it's a recovery for our phones...

You can find the google apps like play store from the above link...

Hi, So I had the play store installed and managed to mess up all my apps. It is not longer there on my tablet and I trying to reflash it in this way. CWM says that it installs successfully but the Play Store isnt in the app drawer when I reboot. Any recommendations? Thanks.

[Q] Restoring system apps

I am running on limited data usage plans and so I cannot upgrade the system apps(Google Maps, Google Search, YouTube etc.) everytime I flash a new ROM with full wipe. Tried to backup system apps using Titanium Backup Pro and restoring into the new ROM but failed. Any suggestions would be appreciated.:fingers-crossed:

Why can't you go on WiFi and upgrade? In titanium backup did you uncheck exclude system apks?

Still not working.... When I restored YouTube v4.1.23 with the data of v4.5.17 it is not happening!!!:crying:
I use app extractor to add my apps after I've changed ROMs. So the apps you have now gets copyed in the form of apks. Install with package installer.

Why don't you download full gapps package once(for your android version), and then flash it over everytime you flash a new rom?

Gapps are usually integrated with Samsung based roms. After flashing a Samsung based rom you would just need to upgrade. I use app backup restore to backup the apk's. Try it and lemme know if it helps.
No.This is for cm base Roms.For Sammy ,you can extract the respective apk from the zip file and place it in system/app and changing permissions.
Edit: Don't Samsung Roms come with integrated gapps?at least the basic ones?

CM12.1 how to backup settings,shortcuts,grouping icons,etc.

Hi ,
I put my first question on XDA
I own a i9300 and run a cm12.1 (5.1.1) beta rom.
Every week there is a new update of this rom.
A dirty flash is no good idea, so every time I reinstall the whole Phone.
Becaus I have many icons, short cuts, dektop settings etc.. it takes hours to reinstall the Phone.
Is there a way to backup these settings/icons and restore them after a reinstall of the Phone?
Thanks a lot!!!

Okay, posting on Xda does not work...thanks:banghead:
Okay I found out:
Trebuchet launcher gives the look and feel of your Android device. (you can install a different launcher to give it a other look)
So if you backup de launcher settings, you backup icons etc...
In this case I use Titanium backup, to backup my icons.(you have to find out the best backup tool for your launcher)
