[Q] GApps not visible (installed)?

[Bruce666]

Hi guys
It may sound stupid, but... It's so strange, I've never noticed it since I began having fun with custom ROMs.
The problem occurs on every AOSP ROM. I flash the ROM, then flash GApps and then I flash magisk.
Everything in latest TWRP.
TWRP says that installations was succesful, but after boot there's no configuration menu, no Google Apps, no Magisk.
I tried many OpenGapps versions: nano, pico and one more (i don't remember its name) and it happens on every version. I tried with Magisk 16.2 and 16.3 - the same situation.
What's going on?
Everything works fine, EFS (IMEI) works correctly

Trick is to flash rom and after flash twrp recovery installer.
Then reboot recovery and flash gapps and magisk. Then reboot phone and gapps should work.

This was my step by step to install lineage 17.1

• reboot to fastboot
• fastboot boot <twrp.img>
  
• wipe > (data, system, davlink)
• reboot > slotA: go back
• install lineage.zip
• reboot > slotB: go back
• install lineage.zip
• install twrp-installer.zip
  
• reboot to recovery
  
• install gapps.zip and magisk.zip
  
• reboot to system.
