OK guys, new builds:
ARM: https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/arm/beta/20190928/
ARM64: https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/arm64/beta/20190928/

These can be considered beta quality by now. I still expect that people may face issues with Wellbeing + some of the APKs still need to be updated to SDK29.
But overall, things look fine from the initial tests and if everything goes well, we can expect a release next week.
Flash away and let us know the results.

P.S. I'll be unavailable this weekend for most of the time due to family trip, but feel free to report issues here anyway, I'll get to them when I'm free.

If you get some apps FC'ing, make sure to attach the logcat so that I could check the reason.


When trying to use Device Personalization Services with a Pixel Launcher based on Q, DPS will crash with a "Caller can't access shortcut information" error, and Overview text copying/app recommendations will not work. Trying to use the P based Pixel Launcher included with the Q OpenGApps beta allows DPS to work, but stops software navigation buttons/gestures from working. Here is the logcat/GApps log for the DPS crash. I did not keep the Pixel Launcher from OpenGApps since the ROM I'm using, Havoc 3 beta on OnePlus 3T, has one from Q already installed. Not sure what has changed in DPS/Pixel Launcher for this to happen, but it happens regardless of DPS version.

I'm on AICP 15 your gapps flashed successfully but I was getting setup force close error..

See if you have `/system/product/priv-app/Provision/Provision.apk`. If so, that's the AOSP SetupWizard that causes this FC.
Remove it and you'll boot successfully.

I should've fixed that already, but for some reason it keeps happening for some users.

I installed LineageOS 17 on a OnePlus 6 using "open_gapps-arm64-10.0-stock-20190928-BETA.zip" and was also greeted by this "Setup Wizard keeps stopping" message when I booted the first time.
I resolved this by flashing "open_gapps-arm64-10.0-nano-20190920-UNOFFICIAL.zip" instead and then Setup Wizard was working. I set up the device and "upgraded" afterwards to "open_gapps-arm64-10.0-stock-20190928-BETA.zip". Now everything is working fine, apart from the known "Digital Wellbeing keeps stopping" problem.

I checked and there is indeed a Provision.apk in "/system/product/priv-app/Provision/Provision.apk" in LOS 17.

Hi, the twrp showed me error: "Incompatible Android ROM detected. This GApps pkg is for Andorid 10.0.x ONLY". My ROM : 10

I'm using Google's Android 10 AOSP for Pixel 2(walleye). Am I missing something?

@cheanch and psshirke.shirke this was due to a mounting error. Should be fixed in the new builds.

Speaking of builds - here are the new betas:
ARM: https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/arm/beta/20191006/
ARM64: https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/arm64/beta/20191006/

These should finallly have all mounting issues fixed as well as the extra /product and /system/product apps removal.
That includes the error @Biggie_still had, should be fixed as well.

Flash away and let me know how it goes.

Hi @Nezorflame, I tried the new build but the error is still the same. The log shows -
# Begin Open GApps Install Log
------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------
# End Open GApps Install Log

INSTALLATION FAILURE: This GApps package can only be installed on a 10.0.x ROM.

Is that it?
Can you share recovery log?

Just flash the zip and go to advanced option in twrp and copy log.
 
My device is Galaxy S10+ (Snapdragon)
If i`m trying to flash arm64 gapps - installer says that my device is arm. ??? Its for sure arm64 :p
After adding
Code:
ro.product.cpu.abilist=arm64-v8a
to /vendor/build.prop gapps installer detect it properly with arm64.
Installation goes ok, then i reboot into system and i have absolutely nothing from gapps stuff just like it wasn't installed at all ( I am trying it to use with any GSI )
Here's the log i can take from /sdcard
Hope i can get some response, Thanks!
UPD: more logs added

    Is there anything new to say?
    OpenGApps is still pretty dead atm, which is very sad...
    I think it's safe to assume that OpenGApps is dead, it's well beyond the point of simply being temporarily on hold. The devs havent posted in many months, not even to say that it's just on hiatus and will return in the future. And besides that, the last OpenGApps releases are for Android 11, we are now on Android 14, and 15 is coming soon. Even if it comes back, they will have way too much catching up to do for the project to be manageable. There are a few other GApps providers out there that you can try, I'd move on. OpenGApps always was my fave, but I've managed without them.

    What he said. There are other GApps providers like MindTheGapps and NikGapps (which is the one I use) that have taken up the mantle from OpenGApps. NikGapps, in fact, still has releases going all the way back to Android 9 (Pie), and like OpenGApps, provides packages from "core" to "full" depending on how much GApps you need. MindTheGapps, unfortunately, stops at Android 13, so if you're using 14, you're SOL there.
    MindTheGApps has Android 14 builds. I'm using it on an A14 LineageOS gsi ROM right now. The only problem with MTG, is that it isnt customizable. The zips are take it or leave it, you're installing all the components in the zip, or not at all. There is only 1 version (all the zips are the same, excluding hardware/Android version-specific details) which is essentially 1 size fits all. But most other GApps providers have customization in that you can choose which parts you do/don't want. But MTG is also very minimal, it just includes the core GApps components and little to no bloat. So it's not a big deal to me. I don't need all the extra stuff, just Play Services/Play Store/calendar and contacts syncing, not much else.

    MTG for Android 14:

    Questions? Use Q&A!
    Please read the FAQ before reporting any bugs or errors!
    If you post in the main thread not having read the FAQ or error message itself, not included a debug log when reporting a malfuction or reporting a Force Closure without a logcat, your post will be ignored by the developers!
    Not because we are evil, but because the same questions keep popping up over and over again and too often we get a "X doesn't work, plz fix" without any clue what is happening. We don't have telepathic connection to your device and all the time unnecessarily wasted on this can't be spend on development of Open GApps itself.

    The Latest builds of Open GApps for Android can easily be downloaded from the:


    I work on this project for FREE and putting in a lot of hours into it. While not mandatory, donations encourage me to continue to further pursue this project and I'd deeply appreciate them, if you feel generous.
    Donate to The Open GApps Project


    Are you a ROM developer and want to hotlink to the latest Open GApps package? Then check this wiki entry for details.
    Please don't publicly mirror the prebuilt packages without explicit consent of @MastahF, to ensure that users will always be directed to the very latest version and the source code of the project.


    About The Open GApps Project
    Open GApps is a Google Apps package completely developed by writing buildscripts which allow for the automated creation of new up-to-date packages automatically.
    The development process is completely open-source (GPLv3) and the goal is to have multiple contributors involved, to secure and reinforce the sustainability of Open GApps development.
    Builds are generated every (European) night automatically (if there are any changes) and uploaded to GitHub.

    Official AROMA Open GApps package is developed in collaboration with long-time LP-AROMA-developer @raulx222 and has a dedicated XDA thread
    For any questions about the AROMA installer development, please refer to that thread. Of course, general support questions can also be asked in our own Q&A thread.

    Official Open GApps For Stock support is developed in collaboration with @Rapper_skull and has a dedicated XDA thread
    For any questions about the GApps for Stock development, please refer to that thread. Of course, general support questions can also be asked in our own Q&A thread.

    The x86 package branch of the package is focused on Zenfone support and is maintained by @deadman96385 of the famous Zenfone GApps packages and has its own topic for x86 related questions

    For those that cook their own ROM, an AOSP-build mechanism for Open GApps has been developed by @blystad and can be found at GitHub, remember that you should not bundle any pre-packaged Google Apps with any ROMs you want to distribute further though.

    To gather all the various APKs that are necessary for the packages our master of the APK Universe @MNBooZe has written a tool called APKCrawler that scrape these from the internet, e.g. from APKMirror, it can be found at GitHub too.

    Characteristic of Open GApps:

    • Some highlights about the characteristics of the Open GApps packages:
    • All platforms and and all Android versions are supported
    • DPI-optimized support for all Google packages (unlike other GApps)
    • Frequently updated Google Apps: The pre-built OpenGApps.org packages are updated every (European) night (if there are any updated Google Apps available)
    • Strong compression, allowing for relatively small downloads of even the most complete packages
    • Automatic backup: It is not necessary to re-flash Google Apps when you flash a ROM update. Most ROMs support this (addon.d) function
    • The installer checks your device’s capabilities, like the system partition size. It will notify you, before making any changes, if it finds any problems
    • Several package variations, from a Google Super Package (includes all applications that ever shipped on a Google device), to a Stock package that equals the set of applications found on the most current and complete Nexus, to smaller, minimalist packages and an AROMA package that allows graphically selection of what to install
    • A special ‘for Stock ROM’ installation mode that allows to update the Google Apps on Stock ROMs that conform to the original Google Nexus filesystem structure
    • All package installations can be customized to your individual preferences using our Advanced Features and Options

    The idea behind this project:
    I believe a big source of the problem for many GApps packages to stay up-to-date (or not be forfeited) is the lack of time for developers to do labour-intensive repetive every time a new google-app apk is released.
    That is why I have taken it upto myself to write some Linux shell scripts to automate the packaging and to share these efforts with the world with the goal to create a team to continue this package together under the name Open GApps.


    This project should not be managed by a person, but by a team, so volunteers willing to help are more than welcome!

    Open GApps installer uses open source third-party tools, like busybox and xzdec, compiled by @YashdSaraf; See his busybox thread for more info.
    Open GApps is originally based on the now discontinued PA GApps package of @TKruzze and @osm0sis

    Is it possible to get a test version of the arm version aswell?
    I run arm/arm64 builds of pico, nano and stock for testing.

    Once they are tested a bit and seem stable, I upload them to MediaFire.
    MediaFire - Link

    Android 12 builds are in the SDK31 folder.
    The 20211218 builds include some permission updates.​

    ---

    Last week I ran SDK32 builds to test on LineageOS.
    LineageOS is merging 12.1.0_r1 into the 19.0 branch instead of creating a 19.1 branch.
    LineageOS Gerrit - Topic 12L - Link
    Edit: I just checked and see they decided to bump up to 19.1 a few days ago.​

    Note:
    Now that Android 12L is official, the release props still show as 12 not 12.1 or 12L.
    The build tag was bumped to 12.1.0 and the boot image is now SDK32 but, the kernel version is still showing as 12.0.0
    The boot image was SDK31 on the 12L preview release.​

    The only way to determine if you are running 12 or 12L is by checking the SDK level.
    SDK31 = Android 12
    SDK32 = Android 12L

    The initial 12L OpenGApps test builds were blind builds and untested.
    I did not have a device/rom to test them on. 🙃

    I few days later I was able to test them on a Pixel C, Lineage 19.0 SDK32 build.
    Since it is a tablet, it utilized the large screen layout of SDK32.​

    The 12L pico and nano builds seem to be safe.

    The 12L stock build had issues with Pixel launcher so, I would suggest not using it for now.
    Unless you are using a gapps config script to customize the install.

    Android 12L (SDK32) test builds are currently on gDrive.
    gDrive - Link


    Everyone is welcome to give them a try.

    Cheers all. :cowboy:

    Tomorrow there will be 7.0 builds
    Small update concerning Nougat: everything is almost in place, only HotWord Enrollment is not de-odexable yet.
    So tomorrow there will be 7.0 builds, ready for when the first source and custom ROMs will drop.
    Of course beta-quality because they cannot be tested yet, so be careful.
    There are some minor changes, Google changed their keyboard stuff, so there will be no swypelibs possible anymore.
    Google VR Services is backported to all Android versions (so all the way from 4.4 to 6.0) but ofc not yet known how well it will work.
    Also there are some new 7.0 core apps for Google's Shared Android Services (com.google.android.ext.shared; com.google.android.ext.services)
    Trusted Face's unlock has also some major changes, it seems the pittpatt suff is not necessary anymore for 7.0.

    That's it for now

    For those who hadn't spotted it yet: we can celebrate 1 year of Open GApps :)

    Sorry to drop in but needed to clean up some unnecessary posts that were burying more legitimate posts to the thread.

    Going into someone's thread and demanding they make you something is not only just plain rude, it goes against everything XDA is about. Numerous people suggested a way for you to remove the gapps and you chose to ignore them. The dev isn't going to make an uninstaller just for you. You could also always use root explorer and remove the apps that way too. Anywho, there won't be an uninstaller made so no need to continue this conversation.
