Hello! So as a lot of you may have heard, a lot of people are having problems with lollipop ROMs bootlooping on first boot and not starting up at all! So, I have the same issue. I have a t0ltetmo (Galaxy Note 2 on T-Mobile). And whenever I install a lollipop ROM with the gapps, it says "android is upgrading", and when that's done, it goes into an immediate endless bootloop! I can't get it to work at all! Any ideas? Thanks guys!
you can post your question here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-2/help/qa-cyanogenmod-12-unofficial-t2976843
Thank you! I'll move this over there.

Try to boot device without gapps
Then if you device is started good, go into recovery, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache. Then flash gapps.
I recommend you to download pico PA gapps. That is the smallest package. Only playstore and google play services, that is enougt. Try this.

I haven't yet tried it with the PA gapps like you said, although I should also add that the ROM doesn't boot without gapps either! I even went as far as formatting my internal memory completely to rule out that it wasn't a file on the internal memory! Same thing, "android is upgrading" (which i've never seen a ROM do after installation) and then a bootloop.
EDIT: I have been using these lollipop gapps. https://s.basketbuild.com/gapps
Bump. Still haven't been able to get this working no matter what I try!

I have installed CM10.1 rom in Galaxy S3 i9300 and later i had installed the gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip. From then I am getting the error "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped. I guess the gapps is incompatible with the CM version.
I am unable to ROM again as the SDcard is not able to mount in CWM recovery.
Pl. help me to solve this by either uninstalling the current gapps or doing a fresh ROM, i am not able to proceed to do anything on the phone.
Thanks

Got it done, i have booted the rom and works fine.

So flashing the new version either via OTA or via download and flash results in the Back acting as the Home button for me.
In addition, flashing the GAPPS package does not install the Gapps (Play store etc.)
Anyone have any idea?
I have performed a full wipe - wiping data, cache, davlick cahce and it does the same thing each time.
Tried re downloading in case of a bad download/flash - same thing?
I'm stumped????
Sounds like you might not have the right version. Redownloand and try a clean install.
I would re-download the ROM and gapps. When Task first put up the gapps link, the main link linked to the ROM for the S3 and not gapps (the mirror was correct). So what you have most likely been doing is installing the latest AOKP ROM for our phone, and then flashing AOKP meant for the S3 over it. Thus things not working and no gapps.

Hope that works for you. I had same guess as DaveyBB, as there seemed to be the two versions posted and some confusion about gapps after first load. I have been running the 5/9 i777 update along with 5/8 gapps and it's been running great. I did a full wipe, but I also ran first just with cleared cache and dalvik cache and it didn't seem to have any problems that way either.
Good luck!
Hi;
So i recently installed CyanogenMod 13.0 on to my Samsung S4 GT-I9505 using the first download link on:
https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=jfltexx --> cm-13.0-20160102-NIGHTLY-jfltexx.zip
That all installed fine, but i wanted to get the Google apps installed aswell, which is where i am having some issues.
I have been trying to install the following package:
http://opengapps.org/?api=6.0&variant=nano
but have also tried to install quite a few others as well, and all have exactly the same issue. Basically after the apps have been installed and i boot the device up, i get various error messages like:
unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped
unfortunately, google play services has stopped
Any help on fixing this would be much appreciated, as nothing seems to download from the play store thats included in Cyanogen, they just say "your download will begin shortly" but never does.
Thanks in advance
I am a total noob, but I had exactly this problem. The issue appears to be that you have to flash gapps *before* rebooting after flashing CM. In my case since I had already flashed CM before I flashed gapps I had to put the gapps file on the phone (I did this by push with adb, you might find an easier way), re-flash CM, wipe cache/dalvik, flash gapps, wipe cache/dalvik, reboot. It worked.
The easiest guide I found was on androiding.how, called "how to install cm13 (cyanogenmod13)." (The forum won't let me post a link, just google it, it should come up).
Hope that helps. I'm on a galaxy s5 and used twrp recovery if that matters.

Thanks for the reply, i gave that a try and it seems to be stuck on a loop now with "installing app # of 22" . it completes the installation and then reboots, after about 5 minutes on the Cyanogen boot screen, it goes back to installing apps again.
Hm, did you do a factory reset in your recovery before re-flashing CM and gapps? If not, that might be necessary.

Yeah, i did. Tried it multiple times now
That's about the limit of my ability right there, hopefully someone with more experience than me can point you in the right direction. Good luck.
Boot to recovery (preferably TWRP)
Wipe cache / dalvik cache / data / system
Flash CM13 and the gapps you were trying first
Reboot
Profit!
Since you keep flashing different gapps on top of the system, this is probably causing some issues. Once you fully wipe and reflash everything, it should work.

Ive tried that multiple times using twrp (i always wipe everything before i flash CM13 and gapps), i still get the exact same issue. The second the phone boots, i get all these "unfortunately ******** has stopped".
Perhaps try installing 12.1 with gapps, get it all updated then upgrade to 13. I did the accidental upgrade to 13 but have had no issues whatsoever.
I had Unofficial 5.1.1 installed on my Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-i9300. I updated my device via CM Updater to CM13 6.0.1 Marshmallow. After updating, I am getting an error Google Play services has stopped, unfortunately. I cannot access any Google App.
I've flashed the GApps through OpenGapps. But after flashing GApps, phone stucks on Bootloop. I've tried many variants (pico, nano, stock) but none of them worked. I am still stucked at boot screen.
HELP!

Definitely Gapps problem.
1) Backup your data.
2) clean install Marshmallow rom (wipe data/ factory reset & install)
3) look for the correct Gapps (slim zero Gapps work for me)
You might know, but just telling - make sure the Gapps is for Android 6.0
P.S: don't panic and flash several things at once. Maybe you haven't clean flashed the CM 13, that might be the reason.
Clean flash 13.0 and don't boot yet after and go back to recovery, instead flash gapps immediately after flashing the rom. If you dont then you're going to have a bad time. Hope I helped
Done. Flash CWM and Boom
Thank You @sashankps. Slim Zero Gapps worked for me.
What I did?
1. Installed CWM Recovery.
2. Wiped everything.
3. Installed CM 13 (6.0.1)
4. Flashed Slim Zero Gapps.
5. Done.
PS: For future readers, please note that do not wipe cache/data after installing Gapps. After finishing above steps directly Reboot your system.

Glad it helped.
I was a CWM recovery user myself, but the development is static, I would suggest you move on to TWRP - chances of you encountering flashing problems is less.
Next Time.

I don't like the UI of TWRP but Next time I'll surely try TWRP. Maybe while flashing Android N
Thanks a lot! Reply via Samsung Galaxy S3 running 6.0.1
Hi all, Am new to the Nexus9, I picked one up quite cheap and thought I would have a go at flashing a decent Rom. I am having no problems flashing a rom but every time I try and flash Gapps the Tablet gets stuck in a bootloop. I have tried lots of versions of Gapps but mostly arm64. I managed at one stage to flash one via the internal memory that seemed to work but then couldnt get Play sevices to work. Tried another but stuck in bootloop again.
At the moment I am trying a version of Slimrom and have tried Lineage 14.1. Anyone got any suggestions?
I normally flash a new rom in this order if the new rom is in my Download folder:
- TWRP Wipe advanced, tick System,Data,Cache.
-Back
-Install, go to sdcard/Download
-Select rom.zip
-after finish go back
-Select gapps64.zip
-after finish installing I press clean Dalvik and Cache
- Reboot system.
Wait a while and install as new device.
This should work.
With a normal update of a rom I simply install the update without wiping my system.

If you're using opengapps, they are having trouble booting on a fresh install on slim and LineageOS. Try an older build of slim or lineage, boot up and set up, then update to newest build.

I had the same issue with my NEXUS 9 wifi, but this solution mentioned here worked for me!
I am using:
lineage-14.1-20180920-nightly-flounder-signed
open_gapps-arm64-7.1-mini-20180923
Vendor Version: n9f27m
wanderweg you are my hero!
Mods make this stickie in the first posts....
If the system doesn't start after flashing with gapps just do this...
After flashing, mount system from TWRP, go to the "Advanced" tab, click on Terminal and type the following command:
echo "ro.setupwizard.mode=DISABLED" >> /system/build.prop
Just killed 2 days trying to figure it out and that's all it was.
P.S. Maybe roms can be updated to include the fix?

It's a gapps issue not a ROM issue. Every now and then the setup wizard is weird in opengapps.
