Hi Everyone,

Here I'd like to Introduce you with my custom Gapps package that I use on day to day basis when I flash a new Rom. As I've observed many people struggling with finding the correct version of gapps to flash, I decided to build a package of my own which lets you flash stable google apps with a lot of variants so you can decide for yourself which package suits you.

What is NikGapps?
  • NikGapps project started with the goal to provide custom gapps packages that suits everyone's needs. A package that a user needs but cannot find and ends up setting up the device installing more apps and removing unwanted apps manually.
  • NikGapps is a gapps package built from my own device. As my device is always updated with latest version of Google Apps, every time I build a new package, I am on latest and stable version of Google Apps
  • NikGapps also comes with Android Go package for low end devices.
  • NikGapps is a bit different than other Gapps packages (written from scratch, it isn't a port of OpenGapps). It focuses on providing apps that most of the people uses but can't find it in other Gapps packages and ends up installing the apps manually
  • NikGapps supports split-apks
  • NikGapps also comes with nikgapps.config and debloater.config which allows you to control your installation and debloat unnecessary stuff from your Rom respectively.
  • NikGapps is built on a different architecture, the installation method is completely different (Every Package comes with installer.sh that installs itself). Also, it installs the gapps to /product partition instead of /system partition
  • NikGapps also allows you to configure the installation, it can be installed to any partition (be it /system or /product or any other partition which may get added in future)
  • NikGapps also allows you to keep the aosp counterpart of google app if you want (just by using nikgapps.config you can choose whether to remove the aosp counterpart or remove it)
  • NikGapps allows you to dirty flash it anytime you want, it also supports installing on top of Roms with Gapps (except for the pixel flavored Roms)
  • NikGapps also comes with addon packages (useful ones) so that users don't have to flash the whole gapps package just to have the app installed.
  • NikGapps supports the Privileged Permission Whitelisting, providing the necessary permissions to the privileged apps.
  • It supports addon.d so you need not flash the package again and again after every nightly flash
  • NikGapps addon.d functionality is built from scratch which allows you to completely control which app you want to backup/restore on dirty flash.
  • It also allows optimizing Google Play Services (when you turn off Find My Device) so that you can sleep with peace without having to worry about Google play services eating your battery. (Requires support from Rom too in order to work)
Also, since these are custom build, I can include as many packages as I want (which I do, you can pm me if you want that package)

NikGapps comes with following packages
» Core
» Basic
» Omni
» Stock
» Full
» Go (for low end devices)

Although these packages cover a large user base, there are few users who like things differently that is where NikGapps Addons Comes into picture. These Addon packages are separate and meant to flash over NikGapps original packages.

Everything about NikGapps

How to create your own custom NikGapps packages!

Flashing Instructions for A/B devices (Clean Flash is recommended)

  • Flash Rom in Slot A, Flash twrp, reboot to recovery
  • Flash Rom in Slot B, Flash twrp, reboot to recovery
  • Flash NikGapps
  • Flash Debloater (Optional)
  • Reboot

Flashing Instructions for A-only devices (Clean Flash is recommended)
  • Flash Rom
  • Flash NikGapps
  • Flash Debloater (Optional)
  • Reboot
How to clean flash NikGapps update without losing data?
  • Delete /system/addon.d folder
  • Dirty flash Rom
  • Flash newer version of NikGapps
How to remove/uninstall an Addon or Package?

Here's how

Enjoy the package! hope it helps you somewhat!

Hey can we have a package which will replace the default ROMs aosp apps like Google calendar, Google clock, Google dailer, Google contact, google message, google calculator, google gboard, youtube vanced, pixel launcher and wallpaper, Latest Gcam with all the goodies like playground ar sticker included if you cant provide it in a single zip then provide gcam all in one zip separately. Rest all other apps can be downloaded but these apps are needed as default apps in the ROM.

I'll create one tomorrow. I'll exclude pixel launcher as we can install it separately and there are ported versions available which are preferred over stock.
As for ar sticker in Google camera, I'll create a separate addon zip as the file size will increase tremendously and not everyone wants to install it.

i will report my feedback later on lineage OS

EDIT:

Well for me its more comfortable using your mod in comparison with opengapps just because acelerate the setup of the phone, it has all that i need too, the only problem that i see is that a person who need more apps isn't the best, in that way probaly its better opengapps, anyway, the thing that contain youtube vanced is the best for me, so i really appreaciate your mod of gapps, thanks ;)

The idea for the project is great, but to satisfy the configuration of everyone is kinda imposible. With opengapps we can customize each part that we want and I think the ultimate goal for this one could be like that, creating a "master package" with a small config file to just install the components we need (or just delete them from the zip file, with instructions of course)

Let me know the path of default launcher, I will create a flashable zip for you which will replace the default launcher with pixel launcher.

i will report my feedback later on lineage OS :eek:
Sure, hope it helps.

Also please see if we can have basic Google addons like Digital Wellbeing, Google TTS, ARCore, Backup and Restore libs. . ?
Yeah, actually I missed Digital Wellbeing in the package that I created, I will include in next build. Backup and restore libs are included I believe. No?
ArCore will be provided as an add on zip soon.

You're right, I used to create aroma gapps when I had Mido with me, unfortunately poco doesn't support aroma installer, that makes it difficult to serve everyone.

May be I will implement a way in which I will ask user to provide an input while installing a particular Google app through NikGapps (vol + button for 'yes' and vol - button for 'no'). Will have to check its feasibility. ;) till then, I will provide 2 packages, one which is shared in OP and the other one with all the Google apps replacing stock aosp apps.

This is a great idea, for starters can you post which all apps are included in the uploaded zip?
Certainly! Thanks for the tip! :)


I personally create a package which includes latest magisk, the kernel I prefer to flash, Google Sans fonts, some cool ringtones, notification tones, my favorite browser, mixplorer, SwiftKey, telegram, adaway, fk app, etc. In one zip. It pretty much covers all the basic apps. Let me know if anyone is interested in such kind of zip.

It doesnt have to be aroma, currently Im still using custom opengapps config by a gapps-config.txt file that got read before it tries to install gapps. Making a script that determine some on off value should not be that bad, not that I know about how to actually code it :D

Yeah, can you share your custom opengapps? I can code it but it will take some time.

like maps, google photos, gmail could be.
Is it possible change the gcam that it include by default for the sannity mod? i think it's better, anyway isn't a problem for me install the other apk
It's certainly possible. The package I use personally has all these apps in it. Not everyone uses all the Google apps hence I included the bare minimum ones and the essential ones specific to our device. :)


OH! I never paid this much attention to opengapps since I had been using my gapps for a long time :D
Thanks for sharing! I'll certainly work on something which allows users to have a choice. :)

Yes, if choices is an option then it would be much cooler.
Also, do you have any experience with microg? Since if it's possible to to a package like this but with microg for people who wants to use the Google apps without the excessive battery & data hog nature of google play service, then it would be even better :)

I do have experience with microg but like I said earlier, I build the package from my device and I don't use microg as of now (last I used, it was unstable, couldn't use apps dependent on google libs like uber, not sure about it's current status) and building a package without having microg installed is not possible for me. However, I'm inclined to take requests/suggestions with regards to current package that I am providing.

    Nah it worked, and makes sense it would since the subsequent reflash in recovery worked.

    This time it happens to be Velvet for me, but last time it was TTS and Settings Services, so some kind of long-term solution will be needed to make it more predictable/reproducible and make addon.d more similar to the initial install so that this can't happen over time.
    okay, so I've made a few changes/improvements.

    Generate the addon scripts in the order of their installation
    Fix the size not printing correctly in addonlog
    Installer: sort it by file name rather than file size

    This will generate the addon file in below format
    05-index-GmsCore.sh
    05-index-Phonesky.sh
    09-index-Velvet.sh
    09-index-WebViewGoogle.sh
    09-index-GoogleChrome.sh

    index will match the constant (05, 09 which are defined by default) and increment by 1 with every new app being installed.

    so above file will have following actual names
    05-01-GmsCore.sh
    05-02-Phonesky.sh
    09-01-Velvet.sh
    09-02-WebViewGoogle.sh
    09-03-GoogleChrome.sh

    This gives us control if we want to enforce the order of a particular app (say if I want Velvet to execute in the end), I can just make a release with setting 10 as constant and the next time you flash the addon, you will get 10-01-Velvet.sh which will obviously execute after 09 scripts.

    otherwise, the indexes will determine the order of execution and will increment with every new installation.

    Dirty flashing will not keep incrementing the number so if 09-01-Velvet.sh already exists, it won't make it 09-02-Velvet.sh

    Not simple to understand, but it should work. I will trigger a new elite build for you tomorrow and you can dirty flash to see this into effect. hope this solves the issue otherwise, I'll have to find a new solution.

    a-z would be good fun and look a little less wild, though a lot harder to iterate through in script. 😛

    Ready for the build. 🤘
    It's up :)

    If this works, we can take a call what to do next.

    8) What does it mean "A/B devices" vs. "A-only devices", please?

    A simple way to check whether your device is A/B or A-only is to install and run the Treble Check app from Play Store. This reports on several things: whether the device supports Project Treble, whether it supports "Seamless System Updates", what its CPU Architecture is, and whether it's System-as-Root.

    If Treble Check says your device supports "Seamless System Updates", it's an A/B device. Otherwise, it's A-only.

    For a detailed explanation of the difference, see How A/B Partitions and Seamless Updates Affect Custom Development on XDA.

    You know.. I believe in "measure twice, cut once" and all, but at some point you also just need to "flash and find out".. 😘

    Hello, i´m a bit confused with the guide to uninstall nikapps, i´m using it via adb sideload, how can i uninstall the whole package? i followed this https://nikgapps.com/misc/2023/03/04/Uninstall-NikGapps.html#uninstall-by-sideloading-the-zip but how do i edit the text file?
    You need to open the zip file and edit the text file contents (double click on zip_name.txt and open via visual code or notepad++), make changes and save it and when asked to update the zip due to external changes, click yes. Then close the zip.

    Modern tools now repack the zip automatically once you save the file so you don't need to extract all the zip contents, modify text file and repack everything again.

    6) Ok, understand. But it is obvious that with LOS recovery I will be kind of limited (no back up function, etc.). Do you know something about how to replace LOS recovery with the TWRP one after the LOS installation with LOS recovery?

    You'd be better off asking that question in the forums for your particular device. Flashing TWRP isn't as straightforward as it used to be these days, plus this really isn't the thread to continue discussing the topic anyway.

    Looks like your hunch was correct and it ran out of space while restoring Velvet.apk, so the next 2 files end up zero-sized. Then Webview must have cleared out the space needed in product so Velvet could be dirty flashed after the OTA. Oddly your addon.d log still doesn't show an issue.. maybe it should log the sizes of both the source file before copy then the destination file after copy?

    Connecting the dots from all of our conversation, I bet this is the new one-at-a-time addon.d-v3 behavior biting us in the ass, and you likely need to implement something to do all the removals during pre-restore like I hypothesized!

    Hi Everyone,

    Here I'd like to Introduce you with my custom Gapps package that I use on day to day basis when I flash a new Rom. As I've observed many people struggling with finding the correct version of gapps to flash, I decided to build a package of my own which lets you flash stable google apps with a lot of variants so you can decide for yourself which package suits you.

    What is NikGapps?
    • NikGapps project started with the goal to provide custom gapps packages that suits everyone's needs. A package that a user needs but cannot find and ends up setting up the device installing more apps and removing unwanted apps manually.
    • NikGapps is a gapps package built from my own device. As my device is always updated with latest version of Google Apps, every time I build a new package, I am on latest and stable version of Google Apps
    • NikGapps also comes with Android Go package for low end devices.
    • NikGapps is a bit different than other Gapps packages (written from scratch, it isn't a port of OpenGapps). It focuses on providing apps that most of the people uses but can't find it in other Gapps packages and ends up installing the apps manually
    • NikGapps supports split-apks
    • NikGapps also comes with nikgapps.config and debloater.config which allows you to control your installation and debloat unnecessary stuff from your Rom respectively.
    • NikGapps is built on a different architecture, the installation method is completely different (Every Package comes with installer.sh that installs itself). Also, it installs the gapps to /product partition instead of /system partition
    • NikGapps also allows you to configure the installation, it can be installed to any partition (be it /system or /product or any other partition which may get added in future)
    • NikGapps also allows you to keep the aosp counterpart of google app if you want (just by using nikgapps.config you can choose whether to remove the aosp counterpart or remove it)
    • NikGapps allows you to dirty flash it anytime you want, it also supports installing on top of Roms with Gapps (except for the pixel flavored Roms)
    • NikGapps also comes with addon packages (useful ones) so that users don't have to flash the whole gapps package just to have the app installed.
    • NikGapps supports the Privileged Permission Whitelisting, providing the necessary permissions to the privileged apps.
    • It supports addon.d so you need not flash the package again and again after every nightly flash
    • NikGapps addon.d functionality is built from scratch which allows you to completely control which app you want to backup/restore on dirty flash.
    • It also allows optimizing Google Play Services (when you turn off Find My Device) so that you can sleep with peace without having to worry about Google play services eating your battery. (Requires support from Rom too in order to work)
    Also, since these are custom build, I can include as many packages as I want (which I do, you can pm me if you want that package)

    NikGapps comes with following packages
    » Core
    » Basic
    » Omni
    » Stock
    » Full
    » Go (for low end devices)

    Hey can we have a package which will replace the default ROMs aosp apps like Google calendar, Google clock, Google dailer, Google contact, google message, google calculator, google gboard, youtube vanced, pixel launcher and wallpaper, Latest Gcam with all the goodies like playground ar sticker included if you cant provide it in a single zip then provide gcam all in one zip separately. Rest all other apps can be downloaded but these apps are needed as default apps in the ROM.

    +1 to this but without the pixel launcher because I like the built launcher
    I'll create one tomorrow. I'll exclude pixel launcher as we can install it separately and there are ported versions available which are preferred over stock.
    As for ar sticker in Google camera, I'll create a separate addon zip as the file size will increase tremendously and not everyone wants to install it.

    Time for another Q update! (12-Jan-2020)

    Changelog

    - Fixed NikGapps installation issues with config values not reflecting in installation
    - Added a nikgapps.config value "2" to retain aosp apps (set the value to 2 if you don't want the installer to delete the aosp counter part of Google app)
    - Aosp Dialer is now deleted by default starting omni package to maintain the uniformity.

    Note: set Dialer=2 in nikgapps.config before flashing if you want the gapps to skip removing aosp Dialer, the installer will remove the Dialer by default.

    Full Changelog and download links are in OP

    Thank you for choosing NikGapps!
