I am having a strange problem. Last time I used this installer is when I tested the beta 2.0 installer + multirom combination (when I said that I had to use PA-GApss folder for the installer to recognize the .gapps-config file). That time I flashed it in a secondary Kitkat ROM. Now I am running SimpleAOSP-Lollipop only (primary).
Yesterday I noticed that I can't delete the PA-GApps folder & files. It seems to be related with permission errors, but the permissions & owner are the same as all the other folders! I tried multiple file managers, full wipe and clean install of another ROM, tried to delete it from terminal/adb (with root permissions), tried to chmod, nothing. My only option is to format the storage (haven't done that yet).

Has anyone else had this problem? Is it even related with PA-GApps installer?

Code:

-rw-rw---- root sdcard_r 420451139 2014-11-22 00:55 pa_gapps-stock-4.4.4-20141121-signed.zip -rw-rw---- root sdcard_r 27337 2014-12-09 20:58 pa_gapps_debug_info.tar.gz -rw-rw---- root sdcard_r 3174 2014-12-09 20:58 pa_gapps_log.txt

Since I never touch Ownership, Permissions, or Contexts on any of these files, the problem couldn't be related to the installer. It's more likely related to your Recovery.

I got a warning indicating a potential conflict between Omnirom and Google Maps and YouTube. Actually YouTube works well for me, while the recent versions of Google Maps were found to FC even before the flashing. It happens several seconds after I open the app, when a blank screen show up before it forces close. I took a screenshot and upload it to the attachment.

I'm not sure if it's a problem of Omnirom or PA Gapps. I'm not allowed to post outside links so I have to paste the log here:
# Begin PA GApps Install Log
!!! WARNING !!! - A potential conflict may exist between these GApps and your
ROM. The information is contained in the log portion below. Please report this
information immediately to the PA GApps developer (TKruzze) in the XDA forum.

# Begin GApps <> ROM Deletion Conflict List
/system/app/Maps.apk
/system/app/YouTube.apk
# End GApps <> ROM Deletion Conflict List

Thanks for the report. What this means is that even though there are no GApps installed on your device, the installer detected Maps and YouTube. So, either OmniROM is now including these apps in their ROM or, possibly, you flashed something else before these GApps (Chainfire's SuperSU?) that created those files on your device.

I added this into the installer to make certain I was not accidentally deleting any important files from your ROM. However, that's not the case here.

Thanks for the reply! I thought so, but I wanted to eliminate that. So that leaves us with twrp and multirom-twrp specifically.

Thank you for your prompt reply! You are right, I did flash SuperSU before GApps. The warning did not appear in my previous attempt when I flashed GApps before SuperSU. I guess the sequence does not matter?
As for the crashing of Google Maps, I see some complaints in Google play store too so I think it has nothing to do with the warning here.

I went for a clean installation for beta 1 due to my last current rom firmware big update. Everything working amazingly.

Thanks boss @TKruzze

Struggling hard with the gapps

Sooo I've spent all day trying to get a newer version of liquid smooth to work on the old nexus 4. I usually figure these things out but its gotten to the point where I'm out of ideas. Maybe i've just done something wrong along the way. Anyway, I can get 4.0 (hope thats what I should be installing). At one point I was getting a message saying the setup wizard was cancelled. I've tried so many different gapps that I don't know what to do. I tried the newest one Liquid_gapps.4.4.4.build.8.1.zip which is straight from the downloads section of the liquid smooth website. All the other ones I did failed but the 8.1 zip installed no problem yet theres nothing on my screen. Obviously I've messed up in some way and any help would be appreciated.

Nexus 4 has a pretty small system partition. Might try wiping everything and using the Pico from this thread.

Did you even bother to read the log? . . . To solve your problem, please read FAQ #8 on the OP. As noted by me and others hundreds of times in the past, these GApps were never meant for Stock ROM's.

@TKruzze -- Might I suggest you consider revising the thread's title in order to limit this recurring issue?

Instead of "PA-GOOGLE APPS (All ROM's)" you might try "PA-GOOGLE APPS (All Custom ROM's)" or better yet "PA-GOOGLE APPS (for custom ROM's ONLY/not for stock firmwares)"

Peace.

Yesterday I noticed that I can't delete the PA-GApps folder & files.

Your eMMC chip is locked and needs replacing.

I managed to delete them using TWRP file manager. It must have corrupted or locked the files during a multirom secondary ROM flash.

I think it's a problem with permissions. If you transfer files with adb or mtp while in TWRP, you won't be able to delete the files in android.

CONFIRMED: I managed to reproduce the problem by creating folders and files in TWRP and try to delete from android. Same error. Nice catch! I think this is a serious bug, I will try to post it / notify the TWRP team.

What version of TWRP are you using? All versions up to 2.7.1 did not have this issue.

You should ask this question in the thread for your ROM. This is not a GApps related question.

OHi
Sorry if this was discussed before. I've searched through this thread and haven't found anything similar to my situation.

Short story:
I had a clean install of the Liquid Smooth 3.2 rom on my maguro. Then I flashed Pico Modular Package from this thread and DirtyV kernel and rebooted. After google account setup all my previous apps were reinstalled including Google Calendar. Now I have both stock AOSP Calendar app (included in Rom I think) and Google Calendar from Play Store. Google Calendar doesn't show any calendar to synchronize and AOSP calendar doesn't synchronize (in settings there is an exclamation mark by the calendar synchronization icon). When I uninstall Google Calendar the AOSP calendar starts to synchronize. I also tried to uninstall AOSP calendar using Titanium Backup, but it didn't make the Google Calendar to start synchronizing.

What can I do now?
Is there any script/zip to replace AOSP Calendar with the Google one? Can I dirty flash different gapps package that can do that?

I'm not the developer, so I'll be grateful for your instructions.

PT

The latest multirom twrp for mako.

A little offtopic to this thread now, so in order not to bother the others please come and continue the talk here if you want.

Is the Pico package the largest GApps package that will fit on your device? If so, try creating a .gapps-config in the same directory as the GApps .zip file. In the .gapps-config file put in the following as the only line: CalendarStock
This will cause the GApps installer to remove the stock calendar app and maybe it will then work when you install Google Calendar from the Play Store.

If you can fit a larger GApps package, the Micro Modular package includes Google Calendar and will also remove the stock calendar as part of the installation.
