GApps for cm13?
Hi Guys,
First off: Thank you so much F4K, for maintaining this ROM so flawlessly! It has been my daily driver on my I9195 since around CM12 first came out. Stable, smooth and easy on the battery!
Flattery aside now, after the update from CM 12.1 to CM 13 :laugh::laugh::laugh: (I am on 13.0-20151230-NIGHTLY-serranoltexx), Google play services is not working any more. This happened to me when I went from CM 11 to CM 12 as well but was fixed by downloading the corresponding GApps. I have been looking online for the last 3 days for a suitable GApps for CM 13, but every single one I have tried to flash through recovery has failed with "installation error in /sideload/package.zip (Status 1)". I have done a factory reset and cleared the cache, but continue to get that message.
I have tried all of the openGApps packages only (expect the largest two), since all others were linked from websites I don't feel comfortable downloading from.
Now further research indicates this is a problem with the update-binary file in the GApps package saying it is not compatible with my device, but I am not sure how to jimmy it to work, since that was not discussed in the thread, and the solution there was to download a different update-binary file modified for that particular phone (this was from around 2011, in an HTC EVO 3D thread)
Is there a recommended GApps to be used with your ROM, or is there something I can do to make the openGApps packages work?
Thanks again!
