I can't install gapps, help!

Only pico gapps can be installed, if you still unable to install pico gapps
create a .txt file named gapps-config.txt with the following contents:
Code:
Exclude

GoogleTTS
and copy that file to the root of your /sdcard, after that install pico gapps.

Recommended gapps-config for opengapps nano (with faceunlock support):
Code:
Exclude

GoogleTTS
Search
Speech
Upgrading from 14.1? Read this!

Android 8.1 is noticably bigger than previous version and directly flashing 15.1 over 14.1
is only possible when you got no gapps or pico gapps installed. If you used for example nano gapps
the correct steps of upgrading would be:

- Boot into Recovery
- Wipe system and cache
- Flash LineageOS zip
- Flash Gapps Pico
- Reboot

FIRST to comment at this legendary thread! Thanks to the developers who initially made unofficial build, changed it to official, and opted to maintain this old device!
By the way, will the build be posted on the LinageOS official website soon? I still can't see it...

Hm, automatic LiveDisplay doesn't seem to be working for me, I'm fairly sure it did on unofficial builds. I'll have to check back on this.

I did a clean flash today with the first official LOS15.1 including pico gapps and magisk 16.0 and everything went without a glitch.
The only issue I have is installing Adaway (Fdroid installed just fine): Adaway is greyed out in the Fdroid app whereas I could install it on my Nexus 6.
What is the trick to be able to install Adaway? :confused:

You can use the XDA adaway version directly: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939825702

I get an FC when I try to open settings, system, buttons...

Log attached
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FUKefen_oyVxjBQCOuS1lvGLHZ1H-G_s/view?usp=drivesdk

Edit: I do use magisk, so I totally understand when you choose to ignore this...

Edit2: just checked and it also FC's without magisk being present, just couldn't take a log as Matlog needs root and I'm not near a computer, I however didn't clean flash, I updated as suggested by OP (wipe all but internal storage & data)

Edit3: from my observations, when changing overlays in settings, display, advanced the buttons page starts to appear for a second and then crashes - I assume it's an overlay issue, as seen so many times by substratum... Even though the log complains about lineage parts right before the fatal exception but anyway I'm terrible at reading logs..

Have a problem now with Sberbank Online app - it now detects this ROM as modified or rooted (didnt install su addon) and works in restricted mode. With previous builds of 14.1 (inc. the last one) it works normally like with stock rom.

Upd: I've send them an e-mail asking to add this rom in the whitelist.

Also, now phones wi-fi can't detect my 5Ghz network for some reason. Didnt change any settings on my router since 14.1 builds.
