Any way to keep Google Play Services from crashing constantly. Won't stop. Tried flashing and reflashing different versions of Gapps with no success.

A lot of people across many devices are having trouble with the latest google play services update. Might be the problem.
But I'm not having that problem, so it could be your gapps.

Just found my solution. I used the base Gapps 5.1.1 and I haven't had a crash all day yesterday nor this morning as compared to seeing the "unfortunately, Google Play Services has stopped working" message over and over again. Just wanted to share my findings.

Also, I wiped Dalvik and Cache before I flashed Gapps.

Update: Never mind, nothing works.

By the way, my experience has been when changing to a different gapps package, it's better to wipe system, cache, dalvik cache, then reinstall ROM, then the new gapps.

Installed these gapps and I keep getting the "Google Play Services has stopped" message.

Does this mean Google Play Services will stop crashing? Improvements?

Google play services crashing seems to be happening a lot. On many Roms/ devices. Seems to be Google's fault. You can try tk gapps, it may help. But updating it or try clearing cache and data for google play services.
I'm using tk gapps full modular package and haven't had any trouble.
tk gapps

Flashed TK Gapps and Google Player Services is crashing worse than ever.

EDIT: Wiped cache & dalvik and fixed permissions in recovery and it seems to working for now.

Just wanted to say that I'm on the Stock package on TK, everything works great after a clean flash.

Also, if you find constant Google Play Services crash popups to be very annoying... Settings>LiquidSmooth>miscellaneous>Disable FC notifications. Not sure if anyone's mentioned this before but it's pretty great actually.

I'm having an issue where I can't set up a swipe style lockscreen. I can, however, set up any other kind of lockscreen style. What do ?

Hello, this is my first time getting a custom ROM, and I decided to get LiquidSmooth as my very first custom ROM :D

I just wanted to address some issues as this ROM is still in beta.
1) How is this ROM for daily driver? Do reboots happen often?
2)How is the battery life compared to the stock rom?
3)Are there any bugs? (i.e. camera, wifi, call/texting, bluetooth, video playback issues like youtube/netflix/videos on the web,etc)
4)Can I flash this ROM if I currently have 4.4.2 (stock) in my sprint s3? (Last time I flashed a stock rom, it got bricked because I flashed 4.3 on my 4.4.2)
Thank you in advance!
