Hello. I clean installed Open GApps stock variant 20220215 and set my .gapps-config so that Speech Services will be installed but "Offline Speech Files" won't. The Speech Services entry on Play Store doesn't show any buttons, and the Speech Services app can only be seen on settings if "Show system apps" is selected. Is this normal?

Can you please explain what the following means: "To Exclude BOTH Goggle Connectivity Services AND Project Fi by Google OR To Include Google Connectivity Services"?

Does this mean that Project Fi requires Google Connectivity Services?

when opening the open gapps app (v1.1.2 on Android 7.1.2) i get a warning "Adblocker Detected". i don't have any adblockers installed. any ideas? because the app won't download any package so wondering if that is related (or not)

Now that LOS has moved to 19 (android 12), is there going to be active development in opengapps for android 12? It concerns me that there has been no chatter about android 12 anywhere regarding OpenGapps, not even beta builds at sourceforge. I'd really prefer to keep using the pico install of OGA over any more bloated gapps project. But I can't upgrade until there's opengapps builds. It's a conundrum I'm sure I'm not alone in.

Oh! thanks for showing me that other thread. I find XDA so hard to navigate and find the correct place where the best information is. I will go watch that thread now.

Hey I have a question, I installed Linage OS 17.1 On my Xiaomi 9T and wanted to install OpenG Apps

But I have a Problem. In the OpenG App, it says
ARM64 (Detected)
Android 7.0 (Detected)

the Thing is, it's running Android 10. Not 7.

And when I'm Trying to install it via ADB it says not enough space on /card
The thing is I don't have one nor can I install One?
Does someone know a solution to this?

I installed LineageOS 18 on my Samsung Tab SM-T550.
After that, i installed Open Gapps pico.

The maintainer of LOS18 for my device
explained that you should never install XxGapps higher than pico or nano.

Now I installed google contacts app:
But the app do not sync with google-account.

What can I do to get a working contact app which is syncing with google-account?

Hello! I have installed LineageOS custom ROM on a phone and I also want to have Gapps on it. Is it legal to install Gapps on a custom ROM or have them preinstalled?

It is perfectly legal and fine to do both.

Some custom roms include (preinstalled) GApps.
Others like LineageOS do not include GApps so, you have to install GApps separately.

Do a clean/new install of Lineage and then install OpenGApps before booting into system.

Depending on your device, you might have to reboot into recovery between installing Lineage and OpenGApps.

Cheers. :cowboy:

The LineageOS Wiki (Google apps Page) there is the following text: "Due to licensing restrictions, these apps cannot come pre-installed with LineageOS and must be installed separately".

    20151219.zip:
    Code:
    Installation error in /sideload/package.zip
    (Status 255)
    Installation aborted.

    So with that package actually the verification was OK again. But CM recovery has replaced their busybox with a still half-broken 'Toybox' that doesn't like our /usr/bin/ash line and demands /usr/bin/sh
    It is updated in the source and I have forced that a new ARM build will be created coming night, that should resolve this issue for you.

    I have just clean-installed the latest cm12.1 nightly (march 18th) for Moto-G (2015) on my device, followed by the latest 5.1 Aroma package.
    The installation went fine. No errors. After restarting my phone, I keep getting a notification of "com.google.process.gapps has stopped", and I can't really use my phone.
    I tried repeating the process, with and without wiping data/cache/dalvik/system, with and without reinstalling the ROM. Nothing seems to change.
    My log files are here and here.

    I also see the following exception in my logcat:

    Thank you for your help.
    Last night I added dex2oat experimental code that doesn't seem to work nice on all 5.x ROMs. I adjusted it to be 6.0+ only, so please try with tomorrow's build again, probably the problem will be gone. If you need to have it work now, you can use the this keyword: https://github.com/opengapps/openga...es-and-Options#skip-smart-pre-odexing-of-apks

    I use open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico and I have AOSP keyboard FC with gesture typing. This gapps don't have libjni_latinimegoogle.so.
    Are there plans to include a libjni_latinimegoogle.so in the gapps_pico?
    Yes this the plan, but we have to fix some lib-handling in the scripts per android version, which is not implemented yet.

    Aroma 6.0 not working in cm 13 sultanxda rom. Pico works fine. Aroma freezes in "installing"
    Aroma GApps 5.1.1 is not working on my TWRP (osprey). Is this a problem specific to my phone or...?
    Aroma has known issues. We are dependent of the release of a new libaroma of the Aroma developer. We can't fix it ourselves unfortunately. Try to use the non-aroma packages instead.

    Is there a reason why the Google Dialer has been removed from the Stock pacakge? I have a Nexus 6P and I'm not sure how to get it back.
    Google Dialer didn't work on most ROMs, we are still trying to figure out why with some other devs, but for now it is not in the package. If you wipe /system/, flash your ROM and then Open GApps you should be fine!

    Okay, I know this most likely has been asked before. Is it possible to create a gapps package that installs all the gapps possible leaving necessary amount of space to /system partition for Android to operate and install the rest of the apps that didn't fit in the /system to /data partition?

    Or is it possible to resize the /system partition of Nexus 5 to acommodate full stock gapps package? This is a bit iffier solution but eh.
    I just enjoy having a full gapps package that removes all the stock AOSP apps and CM apps that have their equivalent in gapps package. The picking and choosing what to install into /system and what not leaves me weird - now I have to go to play store and download the app and... Dunno.
    Nope, sorry this isn't easily possible. And we rather don't mess with the /data/ partition to prevent damaging any of the user's data. Try to pick a GApps version that matches the size of your system partition, and if you want to replace AOPS with CM apps you can use stock with a gapps-config file or aroma. Apps that don't fit on your system you can install via the Play Store on your data partition instead.

    Please excuse me for this newbie question. Had downloaded the Aroma zip. I just want to install Google Backup Transport as I had installed all others through Gapps Installer.
    When I flash the zip through TWRP recovery, will there be options to choose ? I don't want to flash other google apks. I couldn't find the answer in the whole thread.
    No sorry, that isn't possible. You can't combine Open GApps with any other GApps. So make sure you don't have any GApps installed before flasing Open GApps.

    Hi I use Android One device by google... In stock i was having FaceUnlock
    but after moving to CM i was not able to install it using ANY gapps packge

    so i was looking for whats wrong
    And here is what i found

    After skimming through update-binary and update-script of your and others' gapps packages i observed that it check for android.camera.harware.front.xml for front camera compatibility
    but some devices(like mine) have front camera compatibility mentioned in android.hardware.camera.xml

    So even if there devices are compatible , they will be shown incompatible because of this checking method


    Hope you improve it soon to fix this issue
    i'm attaching my phone's system/etc/permissions zip so that you can have a look at it
    Its from stock and they have mentioned front camera compatibility in android.hardware.camera.xml

    Thank you for your input and research!

    I fixed the code and am testing it now. If it works I will commit it and you'll be able to find it in tomorrow's nightly.
