Smaller, bloat free
*To get Google Now offline voice recognition working aka hotword detection download the language pack within Google Now itself.*
-Two different packages to choose from: Keep in mind if its not in the GApps zips, it can be downloaded from the Google Playstore.
1. The main GApps package in which most people will probably use.
2. A Minimal GApps package only containing Playstore with syncing stuff.
-There is also a Stock Emoji Addon.
-There is also a Photosphere Camera addon.
-There is also a GenieWidget addon.
-For Multi Dpi use this: Multi Dpi Playstore
-For TRDS GApps to use with Dark Toogle use the Slim ROM GApps: Slim GApps
-Inspiration from Formula84
-Goo.im and Cyanogenmod for the original official Gapps
-Google for the apps
-0.0 for the Emoji Keyboard tip
-Anybody else who helped me out
-Bigxie for his Ota Deodexed ROM zip in which I got the gapps from for JDQ39 before I switched to the Factory Image from Google
-T.Longren for the extra mirror
-jcmm11 for the GsmCore.apk tip
