Android M Google Now Launcher - Verizon LG G3

So I didn't think it would work, but apparently it does on the G3! I've only tested it with AOSP (CM 12.1) though. Also there were a few FCs before it started working, and OK Google doesn't seem to work. But hey, Android M GNL!

Okay Google seems to work on stock LG G3. Did get a couple of force closes at first. But, now seems stable.

Anyone got an OK Google working version?

Error to Install Google Maps 6.0 SGA Cyanogenmod 7.2

Hello good at all, I have a problem installing google maps 6.0 is forced to try to open the lock, someone can help me?
Sorry for my English.
i sucessfuly instaled maps, but when i opet them, i got error and must close app. also for latitude, navigation etc.
i'm facing the same prob here too.. but, its ok, since i use papago as my navigator.
I have the same problem here. Cyano 7.1
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
working fine on mine, try unistall ICS Animations (that is if you already did that, they cause apps to force close).
for all users having problem with maps v6.0 I got the message too at the beginning that the app must close, wait a little, first run takes long I don't know why. Then everything is ok, I closed it open again and works. Maybe this version is quite heavy for our ace, but works!
SUGGESTION --- Better install 5.11 from here http://www.apktops.com/google-maps-5-11-0.html It's really fast
does not work, I have no animations ics and you wait about 20 min without reacting, if too heavy. Help!

Google Now with CM9

Hi everyone,
I am coming from Viper and trying out CM9 for the first time. I just flashed CyanogenMod 9 Unofficial Build and wanted to see if I could flash the fully working Google Now on it?
I tried other CM9's in the mega thread but I seem to like this one the best.
Also, I am not liking the camera app on the CM9 ROMS. Its like 2/3 of the screen is taken up but the shoot button. Is there any other camera app I can flash. I REALLY liked the sense camera app, any way to get that?
Thanks....
Using one of the ArmV7 versions in the Google Now Project thread in the Android Apps section should work fine, make a back up first just in case.
You can't get the Sense camera on AOSP, but you can use third party cameras in the Play Store.

[Q] google voice typing doesnt work.

Hello, the google voice typing works fine on stock rom but after i installed paranoid android it stopped working.
If i tried to use it in the google search at the top of the page it would say that google search has stopped and closes the app but if i tried in the messaging app it would give me the same error (i think but it disappears to fast to see) and the keyboard disappears and wont come back and the only way to get the keyboard to appear again in every app is to go into language and input and disable google voice typing.
I have tried returning to stock rom where it works fine and then installing Paranoid android again but the same thing happens and it doesnt work. I also just installed a different rom called carbon and it also doesnt work on that.
It works fine for my friend who has also used the same roms from the same download link.
I thought it may be something to do with the G apps file i downloaded and thought about downloading a different version but when i checked the two custom roms they both came with different date G apps so i dont think thats the problem.
Anyone have any idea on what else i could try to get it working as i use this feature a lot.
Thanks.
I'm having exactly the same issue but with PAC-ROM on my HTC One.
Can I ask:
Does the Google voice search app work for you?
Is it telling you there's an update to Google Search, but giving you an error when it tries to update?
Thanks
EDIT:
Just fixed it by flashing this gapps:

Hope it works for you too

[Q] [ROM] Thor Gapps (Almost AOSP) (update 2) GPS not working

Hi everyone. Ive installed Cpasjuste's rom and have noticed a bug. As im a noob I cant post in the development thread. When I use google maps it says the gps isnt switched on even though it is and it redirects to the settings. When i go back into maps the gps is intermittent. I wondered if anyone else had noticed this bug. Also the lock screen has a plus for adding widgets but doesnt seem to do anything. Overall the rom works brilliantly and I must thank Cpasjuste for all his time and hard work on the kindle fire hdx.

Time to let go?

Hi forum!
I have a good ol' galaxy tab 10.1. And it's horrible. Super slow, Chrome won't run, constant "unfortunately ___ has stopped", for some reason Hangouts keeps attempting to run and stops. It's pretty close to unusable. Is it possible to save it?
I'm a newb (I've rooted and installed custom roms in the past, but nothing in the last 3 years or so, so I'm pretty much back to start).
Details:
Android version 4.2.2.
kernel 3.1.10-cyanogenmod
AOKP p4wifi_unofficial_Mar-16-13
The reason I haven't bought a new one is because I use it so infrequently. I've got the S7 and it does just about everything I need, but every once in awhile it would be nicer to have a bigger screen. So I don't really want to go out and spend hundreds of dollars on a new tablet if I can salvage this one for the rare occasion I use it. The reason I dragged it out this time was to edit a video, so it would be nice if I could do that (powerdirector doesn't support this version). Beyond that it would probably just be a movie player for road trips with the kid... Or if anyone has any other suggestions what to do with it, I'm open!
Any help is greatly appreciated! I'd hate to see it go!
No, never let go I've got 7.1.1 Nougat running well with the latest update. A bit laggy but not too much, and stable so far.
The trick is it will autoupdate to an incompatible version of Google Play services (and some other gapps) - unless you take the right steps as shown in this thread (check the first 2 posts and the last few pages of posts).
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1/development/rom-android-7-0-nougat-t3471350
NB The gapps recommended in the orig post wouldn't flash for me. I used open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20170119.zip
from
https://github.com/opengapps/arm/releases/tag/20170119
Once you stop autoupdates in Play Store and roll back to the last compatible versions of some major google apps, it runs great for most ordinary purposes. My Sygic app is working properly again too.
Sure it's a bit of work and it was a bit confusing for me working out how to get the right version of Google Play services installed, but I found it very rewarding and worthwhile. There's a couple more of its nine lives yet imo. Was a great choice of tablet.
(I can't speak for hangouts though; I don't use it.)

Well that's annoying - I subscribed to the thread but it never told me that someone was kind enough to reply!!
Well here's an update in case you're curious: I've bricked it. I tried to flash it back to stock and now it's stuck in a bootloop *sigh*
So, if I can ever get it out of that state I'll give your suggestions a try. Thanks so much for posting!
Holy crap I saved it! But it's runnig Android 3.2 LOL
So I'm going to see about getting JellyBam on there, it looks to be pretty stable.
I've just been trying to decide what to do with mine,
I have ASOP 5.1.1 but always get 'Google Play Services has stopped' so want to find a version that I can just put on and leave it on without having to do anythign too technical
Did you try the link that rubbercorners posted?
I'll take a look

Did you end up giving up on it? I updated to a newer version of Nougat (same link I linked above) and it seems to have solved the Google Play Services crashing error. But you still need to use older versions of some apps, and Google Maps doesn't seem to work properly any more (I use Sygic navigation).
It also has some kind of 'Neon emulation' which slows down some apps.
Realistically, with this tablet, you have to be prepared to use workarounds for a bunch of things and for most people it's too much of a hassle, and very laggy with things like Google Now/Assistant or whatever it's called. I doubt you could use it for video editing, and youtube works at 480p max I think.
Having said that, I have it running well for what I use it for - Sygic navigation, occasional browsing, gmail etc. And I think it would run 720p movies okay if already downloaded (I haven't tried Netflix etc.)
I doubt running older ROMs like JellyBam would have any advantage over the latest Nougat (I could be wrong?). Surprisingly, Marshmallow and Nougat run less laggy than the older ROMs ever did for me (including the official ones).
I went with Jellybam but get an error with the keyboard AOSP so can't type anything at all
Now Google Play Services started crashing again. I will try to solve it again, but I might be getting to the point of just using this tablet for Sygic offline navigation.
*slaps myself for losing faith in my tablet*
The developer fixed Nougat again and it's working pretty pretty nicely for me (no Google Play Services crash). Remains to be seen whether anyone will try to get Oreo running on it (or if it's even possible), but I can see myself getting another year out of this ROM:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1/development/rom-android-7-0-nougat-t3471350
If anyone tries it, note:
- read the first few posts of the thread carefully
- install using TWRP 2.8.7.0 if it fails using TWRP 3
- turn off autoupdates (see thread).
- if you have problems with Google Play Services crashing (it updated itself to 11.5.17 and is running fine for me), try to find a way to install one of the earlier versions recommended there - maybe install the earlier gapps (P7500-open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20170119.zip) and roll back/uninstall Google Play Services to the stock one if it autoupdates.
- there's an unfixable hardware bug where sometimes the battery drains with the power off. The workaround is to always shut down the tablet by rebooting into TWRP recovery and power off there. (This bug has apparently always been in this tablet, but it shows up more in later Android versions.)
- if tablet doesn't power up, hold the power button down for about 10 seconds
- I rooted using the phh SuperUser option (2 steps to this). Some people seem to be having trouble with the Magisk option.
seriously? ive had absolutely no issues with mine! I use it as a puzzle/game/ebook/reddit browser/ video player... nothing intensive and its a t-580 running 6.0.1 (Ultra Lean MM V6). Everything works (everything ive ever tried including magisk and xposed)...
