I flashed the codefirex ROM with android 4.3 to my ltevo.
It worked fine at first but when the google play updates started to install it began force closing the play service and location service stuff.
Dialogs would appear and I'd click ok and it would come up again. Made the phone unusable really. Difficult to even reboot.

Anybody else experience this? I flashed the gapps from 20130813 jellybean.
They seemed to work fine until they updated.

Try these, they've been good to me on 4.3 and 4.4 there are separate versions for each: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2397942

This is the process I followed. I repeated it last night just to be sure.
Recovery is TWRP 2.6.3.0. The one for CM11 kitkat.
1. I went into wipe and advanced wipe and selected Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data, System, Android Secure.
2. I went into install and selected the ROM zip and installed.
3. I went into install and selected the gapps zip and installed.
4. I went into install and selected the supersu zip and installed.
5. I wiped Dalvik Cache and cache.
6. Reboot.

It then works fine till google play services auto updates.
Then I get closes in gsf.login, location and play services.
If I revert google play services it works again.

Thanks wolfclan68, I'll try those gapps later today.
Right now I'm setting up CM11 deck's build 2014-01-17.
