OpenGApps don't seem to work well on the new Google Pixel 2 phones, neither built-in directly from source, nor the downloadable files. It hangs when using the initial Setup Wizard at the stage when the Data Transfer Tool is being downloaded. @adinkwok found a bypass to make it work, see his comment here. The guys form MindTheGapps have fixed this by including the AndroidMigratePrebuilt.apk app in their package (see this commit).
Would it be possible to have a look at this so Pixel 2 users can enjoy their apps and settings being restored during setup? Thanks in advance, I'm not a real coder, but I could help debugging or make an inline installation of OpenGApps to test things

There's a bug with the latest releases which provoke an error message of incompatibility for wide range of supported apps like fb & instagram when trying to install them from store..

If I can get a tester to try a build with the fix on a fully wiped Pixel, I'll submit a pull request once verified working.

Not a GApps issue. Clear Play Store data and try again.

Data Transfer Tool - com.google.android.gms.setup - 342400.158195997.158195997 is dated updated version is 1108400.194950772.194950772
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...400-194950772-194950772-android-apk-download/
Doubt it'll be updated since that is pulled from Android P, while OpenGApps is using "at max" apps from Oreo sources.

What I'm asking is if there's any reason to keep the AOSP TTS? Is it in any way better or useful in a different way than the Google TTS? If I'm not going to use it, I might as well have gapps-config remove the AOSP TTS.
The only difference I noticed so far in my very limited time of using TTS is with Google TTS, the voice sounds much more natural. Features such as Google Assistant or an automation app such as Tasker may not work correctly without either one.

The latest in the OpenGApps repo is: opengapps/all@115ee0f (APKMirror Link)
Newer version are from Android P previews (see the Note tab on APKMirror)

Thanks. I have tested this with the following code...

Code:
Override
WebViewGoogle

Exclude
WebViewStub

But it doesn't work. Can you give me an example of the config file?

You need to make the config an inclusion config. See my gapps-config here, which is configured to install WebViewGoogle using "Include": https://pastebin.com/6URVQpNp

Note: This config is based off my personal builds of OpenGApps stock. Some Google apps, such as Allo, aren't included in the official builds, and may not have all apps that are in official stock, but instead, OpenGApps Super.

In your Recovery_tmp.log, it seems that things work fine at the beginning. Then in the middle of the gapps install, we get:
install: can't create directory '/system/priv-app/Velvet': Read-only file system

My guess is that the kernel of your recovery discovered something about the 'system' file system that it didn't like, and then remounted it read-only.

Maybe if you look in the dmesg in the recovery after installing again, you can see an error message.

If my theory is correct, then this has nothing to do with gapps.

Oh I thought major devices are running nougat so you guys will give some priority to those devices as well...:( but it's ok :rolleyes:

I am unsure if this statement is ignorance or sarcasm, so I'll assume the prior:

You stated that you are running Nougat 7.1 (which is SDK 25). The latest version with minSDK of 25 (or lower) is 342400.158195997.158195997. If you feel the need to sideload on the APKs from the Android P Developer Previews that is your choice, but they will not ever be included in OpenGApps. When P is released we will include gms.setup from that image (assuming it is still relevant).

As to priority and support, yes we do support Nougat. It is our second most downloaded build after Oreo 8.1. I'll be the first to admit that we miss updated APKs from time to time, but after I've given the time to look into a request and give a response and still get push back in the form of support shaming ... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Can't see Play Store Icon

Hi! Just flashed my Moto E 2015 LTE (https://download.lineageos.org/surnia), and after flashing and whipping Dalvik/Cache I've installed Open GApps Aroma package and everything went just fine. I have all my GApps icons working as expected but I can't see any Google Play Store icon anywhere! I even certified my device with https://www.google.com/android/uncertified/

Running pm list packages I can see com.android.vending but no icon is shown at all.

Should I do something else

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.
