Hi i have recently flashed exodus rom 6.0 which is working quite nicely overall but it seems i have flashed the wrong version off Gaaps. I am unable to download certain apps from the playstore which worked fine with my previous stock rom. I am having compatibility issues with apps like google+ etc. I would like to flash the correct Gaaps for this rom which i have now found but i am not sure iff i can flash over existing Gaaps or do i need to start from scratch. I am hoping i can flash over existing gaaps because i have set up all my apps etc as i like them. thanks in advance for any input.
I used OpenGapps mini without issues on last nightly.
i ended up flashing opengaaps stock which was like 530mb it fixed the all the problems but installed lots of google bloat which i then had to uninstall using root uninstaller but at least everything is working as it should now.

I just downloaded the latest cm7 nightly and I am trying to install the latest gapps as well and it appears that it installs successfully (meaning I don't get any errors) but when the phone boots back up I don't have any google apps installed. ie, no market, maps, etc...
Anyone else having this issue?
My apologies guys. I went back into ROM Manager and selected the option to install cwm and selected VibrantMTD and then selected cwm v3.x and reinstalled gapps and it works likes a champ now...
hey guys,
i wanted to try something new on my Atrix so i flashed the CWM, cm10-20121112 and the chooseoptions from th3bill.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790036&page=45 old thread from jokersax11
install was successfully and the atrix booted up with no problems but then i realized that the play store is missing.
i reinstalled the cm10.zip and the chooseoptions.zip, whiped cache and delviks cache but it doesn't show up anyway.
then i tried installing the play store with the 'Play Store APK 3.9.16' - but when i start the app it runs into an error --> no connection to server.
any clue what i can do ?
thanks in advance!
When you want the google apps you have to flash gapps on top of the rom.
you can use epinters zip (which you can find here)
hi,
thanks for your reply.
i flashed the zip on top like you said, but gapps didn't show up.
i will re-flash the rom again later and will try flashing the gapps.zip on a clean rom.
but gapps also should be included into the "optionchooser" package.

gapps is short for google apps, there will never be a gapps app but it will install play store, maps, etc.
I never tried aroma so didn't know the optionchooser included gapps.
normally if you install gapps and reboot it will start the rom with the basic setup of google account etc.

Hi there!
After having a lot of trouble with the default rom of my phone (reboots, frozen screens, wifi not connecting, etc), I decided to try my luck with other roms. After a few tries, I decided to try CyanogenMod 7, and I installed the psyke83 rom. But now I can't install certain apps. I tried from the play store, and tried direct from an .apk. Nothing: the phone reboots as soon as the app starts to install.
And I'm getting tired of this things. I don't want to go back to stock, with all the samsung apps consuming space and instability, but CM7 isn't making things easier for me, if I can't install apps (and essential apps like Maps).
Also, the thought of re-installing some apps, doing the setups allllll over again, fixing the agenda... any way to make a backup of all that things? I've read that Titanium Backup isn't worth it anymore.
So... What should I do? Stick to CM7 (3.0) and forget about installing apps? Go back to stock? Installing a new rom (recommendations will be appreciated)?
Have you installed gapps?
"Maps" won't install without them.
2 good roms are CM11 and OmniROM 4.4
Their latest versions are stable and they are based on android Kit Kat (4.4.4).
You can find them at madteam.co
Sent from my D620R [Stock 4.4.2]
Yup, after installing the rom, I installed gapps. Searching the forums, a lot of people recommended to reinstall it, and I re-downloaded it from MAD Manager.
But nothing. I was thinking of deleting the play store updates, then rebooting and installing gapps..

best rom give it a try download speedmod v2 gapps and hotfix install via zip files.
I have just noticed that CM 12.1 nightlies are including the Google Play Services and Google Play Store stuff by default.
I was willing to install a google-free ROM and CM was my choice. Now that cannot be any more.
1. Wasn't that forbidden by Google itself?
2. How can I remove that, as I really really need a google-free installation?
3. I think I have missed some important announcement, any link?
Thanks in advance.
When i installed CM 12.1 to my s3 mini there wasnt just one google app. I had to install all stuff from google I wanted to have.
I just installed CM12.1 nightly (20151016) without GAPPS. I found after reboot Google Play was there...
I am on Nexus 7 2013 (Flo) and would be surprised if this is not a general "issue".
Many off the roms are using backup scripts for gapps so if you had gapps installed then they would stay installed
Nope. I wiped everything but the user storage: there was nothing to backup at the nightly installation time...

There is something backing it up because no aosp rom comes with gapps be default as you can't build them in line with the rom. So there has to be something backing them up. Also what rom are you using? Is it official?
It's in the OP: CM12.1 nightly.
I have TWRP 2.8.7.0 to wipe and flash.

That still doesn't say if it's an official build or the device. I have just looked at cm build setup and they don't enclude gapps at all so I would look at the person pushing the builds out. Most have stopped using cm so I'm not really sure what people are adding to those roms.
I don't know how many peoples are pushing CM night lies.
Anyway my source is this one:
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=flo
I have trusted it as official since years now.
Has anyone else tried a fresh install?
Which files belong to the Google Play Services?

I think in the end you were right.
I tried once again with my recovery (TWRP) and, instead of the default wipe (meant to be for a new ROM) I manually wiped the partitions: cache, dalvik cache, system and data.
By doing so the Google stuff disappeared.
By the way, as I explained, the only Goggle stuff was the Google Play Services and the Google Play Store, nothing more, while the GAPPS I used in the past were also containing Mail, Hangouts and stuff.
Thanks a lot.
Hello,
I have a GOME C71 as a secondary phone which i use for my work as a test bench (mainly website development)
When i bought it on facebook, there was already all the google stuff installed, but the UI randomly crashed when I pressed the "running app" buton. So i decided to flash a stock firmware (found at needrom.com)
The flash was ok, but now, there is no GAPPS anymore (even if the ROM description says GAPPS included). Tried everything (some Google apps installer : didn't download anything, Installed manually the framework, the services and all other google apps : launch but stuck in verifying information)
So, if someone have a trick to make GAPPS available on this phone, or if someone has a custom ROM with GAPPS, please tell me as i really need google services for testing stuff.
Thanks
Could you kindly share this ROM if you still have it.
