[Q] installing rom/gapps - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

so I was trying to install a rom (broken) on my gnex...I have twrp...the rom installed but gapps keep failing...I get an error message saying the device requires 37xxx of space and I have 35xxx of space...I deleted my 5 gigs of music and still get the same error...so what am I doing wrong?
I tried a smaller version of gapps and it worked but somewhere in there, I was unable to get google now to work...any ideas?
thanks

PA Gapps FAQ #3 My install of Google Stock (or Full Modular) GApps failed with the message 'Insufficient storage space available in System partition'. What does this mean?
It has nothing to do with your music, that's on a different partition. It needs space in the system partition. If you are using something like F2FS then you have less space in system and will have to use a smaller gapps package. Also its a GNex, so the "older device" portion of the FAQ comes into play as well.
I would use PA Gapps in either Mini or Micro flavors, they have Google Now included. They released an updated package today, I would check to see if they helps. If you are switching Gapps please see #6 in the FAQ as well. I had issues too before I realized I had to wipe System and reflash my ROM when switching to different gapps.

greets doneyhtc
Did u flash the ColdFusion Gapps.
Did u set up a Google account?
download rom and google apps
then go to recovery and wipe system (not data/factory) and cache
install rom and reboot wait for 2 min.
enter recovery install google apps and reboot. Everything should work (if it doesnt be sure you have partitioned the sd card)
U do NOT need a SD partition
i installed the gapps already.
after install of the rom i first let it boot up. en then i installed the gapps.

the first page is outdated i need some time before i update but the thread contains all the latest releases u should search the thread
thanks for the help so far but its not useful for me. it has the newest version of cm9. i installed the rom again and now the bt is working fine but again no google play. and the bt pairs with my pc but i cant connect to my pc using the rc bt app.
Try these google apps, it worked for me

still a no go. the google play icon isnt even in my apps menu
Are you using a small /system partition? For a full-working system you need a 185mb partition (with mini-gapps) or a 200+mb partition with full gapps. A 20mb cache is recomanded by tilal itself (the dev of CFX). If you came from CM7/MPH/GSF or any other 2.3.x rom, the small /system partition might be the cause of your problems.
Open Terminal Emulator and type df . Then check the "size" of /system, if it's less than 185mb use a TPT in order to resize your partition layout
thanks i am gonna try it soon. because its indeed to small. i let u know this evening greets
wich tpt
wich tpt is needed to do this? because the one on this forum (gen 1 to gen 2) only gives me a space of 160 mb.

Use that only if u are gen 1 but as u can use ics it seems u are gen 2 so use tpt helper from the market and make your own tpt.
How to use it is written in the app or in its respective thread
Reflash your previous rom in order to have a full working system. Download TPT helper from the market, choose your gen (1,2,3, Updated from 1 to 2 with another TPT etc... there are many choice, just choose the right one that fits to your phone.), choose your bootscreen, CWM version, 196 or more mb (i've got ~20 mb free on a 196 mb partition after flashing CFX and mini gapps, so 196 mb is enough for ICS) for system, 20mb off cache and the program will self calculate the size of /data. After that, reboot, do the TPT and flash ICS.

Just backup your data and do complete factory reset/wipe data, cache & Dalvik cache, now flash the most common or latest gapps , reboot & wait few minutes. And you're done. for your info, the mini gapps worked for me without any problem.

[Q] LG Optimus One P500 GAPPS

PA 4.4.3 from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789356
Can't install even micro GAPPS, so need help with that. There is a post in that thread
1. Installed ROM as instructed in OP, rebooted the system and system works as it should be. Since user apps have not yet been installed, system running fast and smooth as usual.
2. Tweaked build.prop: dalvik2cache script (dalvik.vm.dexopt-data-only=0), in order to move [email protected]*.dex files from /data/dalvik-cache to /cache/dalvik-cache and enable soft keys in navigation bar (qemu.hw.mainkeys=0). Rebooted the system and it works just fine. However, dexes still occupy /data/dalvik-cache. Need to be removed manually and gained plenty of free space (ca. 180 MB) in internal memory (/data) afterward.
3. Link2SD works, no headache, since it's fresh installed . However, restoring apps using TB, even a single app took minutes or failed. Will explore further.
4. No need to flash GappsLight. Google services files are already included in /system/app-priv. Simply installed the latest gmscore.apk, login into G server and all G services (incl. Playstore) works as it should be.
5. Will try PA features and report it later. At least floating window works like a charm. Hover? looking how to enable it.

Can you please translate it into normal, simple English and additionally provide info how to install GAPPS? PA itself is looking great, I really want to use it, but I need GAPPS. Thank you in advance!

[Q] How to improve my system space, installing GAPPS

Hi.
At first, I don't have a clue if it is a good place in forum to write about this. But let's stat.
I have Paranoid for my Galaxy S Plus i9001. I don't have any of google things on phone. I used official Google items from internet, it stopping work. So i decided to install Gapps again. Again because i've tried it. It is always the same. I mean that i can't install any of GAPPS from XDA, because i haven't got space. In TWRP opinion of course. Here's the photo . I've got SD card with 10GB free space and something about 5GB free in device storage.
How to do it?
Thanks for replies.

Weird, twrp is saying you only have 4kb left... Can you give me a picture of your storage? (in settings ---> storage) Have you ever backup/install a rom with twrp before?
As explained in your error message in the TWRP window, your system partition has only 4kb left, so you won’t be able to flash any app there. In your current partition configuration, you will need to install all google applications from Google Play. This is further explained by TKruzze in question 2 of this FAQ:

[ROM[BETA][P1][6.0.1][24/05/16][UNOFFICIAL]CyanogenMod 13.0

CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
Steps to install:
1. Best to do a full wipe of data, cache and system if you want to guarantee no weird issues
2. Install ROM zip, you will get a warning about partition size change of system if its the first time you flash, just flash it a second time to confirm the change, this will erase your data partition!
3. Install gapps
4. Reboot

What link
can i install this directly over Omni 4.4.4 in TWRP?
i did a flash over Omni 4.4.4 after wiping system/data/cache in TWRP. when i try to flash linked gapps (latest v5.0 version) it fails due to "not enough space left". any ideas what i am doing wrong? is there a specific version you suggest OP?
Guys we need more space for /system partition. I will make /system to 900 mb but it needs to wipe data too?
In the next build i will add this patch too.
Thanks

Hi feroxxx, thanks for your work
Do you think Bigmem feature from Omnirom is doable on CM13?
Only question: is better omnirom? I think so....
In cyano.:Account google no works! Play store no works. I tried to install theme and this no works. Rotation screen no works (also in omnirom). Browers works bad

OmniRom is more basic so less bugs to expect.
More info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/whats-difference-cyanogenmod-omnirom-t3132241
i tried going back to OmniRom 6.0.1 from this CM13. i wiped system/data/cache but TWRP refuses to flash the Omnirom complaining newer build is installed! any ideas? is the OmniRom trying to flash an older TWRP or something? how do i get around it?
edit: i managed to flash Omni 4.4.4 instead and will upgrade from there.
New build available people ?
Thanks.
Unfortunately during setup ( after the first boot ) the system crashes after setting the wifi password. It tries to establish a connection and suddenly reboots. And since it will boot into setup again ( and doesn't allow to skip this step either ) i had to flash down to cm11.
Also in the 04/11 version in the settings>buttons menu ( where you can turn off the hard keys or set their light on time ) tapping the last two tabs crashes the menu.
Guess it would only be half the fun without all kinds of weird bugs to encounter...
Same here. No luck with beta 1 nor with beta 2. Crashes in setup. So I went to lollipop in CM.

If setup wizard crashs every time, just delete setupwizard.apk from twrp file manager and reboot device again.
Ok, gave it another try. This time it didn't run into a reboot loop, but the setup is still shaky. After the update step it threw me right back to wifi selection, all in all three times, once with a "Google Play services stopped" message. But it worked after that. Still, that bug in Device Settings, causing a crash when tapping the RADIO or VIBRATION tab, remains.

On my note3 is also have to delete setupwizard - seems to be a cm bug that depending on circumstances may strike builds/derived roms.
Adoptive storage/internal sd card issues
Just wondering if there's any way to fully utilize adoptive storage on CM13? I have a 64GB sd-card that was successfully formatted as adoptive storage, but the tablet refuses to fully utilize the space (keeps downloading to the 1GB partition, constantly getting "running out of storage" warnings and can only move the apps to the internal SD card). I tried formatting the 64GB as portable storage, and it does not appear as a destination when trying to move apps (only internal 12GB appears).

If you are rooted you could use RAM-Expander.

I appreciate the idea, but what exactly will app that do? I'm unfamiliar with Swap and most of the terminology used in the description of the app. Plus, I'm really only wondering why the rom itself doesn't utilize the adopted storage when downloading/installing apps and only uses the "external" 12GB internal card.

App Installation Issues Lineage OS 14.1 nightly OPO, Error 492

Hi,
I recently upgraded to Lineage 14.1 bacon for my Oneplus One. I installed it using TWRP. I had made a backup of important apps via Titanium Pro Rooted (Dunno if this is relevant).
Also I made a backup of the system and data via TWRP just in case. After the first successful install, like a fool I tried to revert to the old build from TWRP Backup by using the restore process, where I tried to just restore the data part of the backup and not the system as well.
It got stuck at 50% during this process for more than 6 hours. I just rebooted the phone midway during the restore process, wiped the phone again to factory and re-installed Lineage 14.1 (with Gapps Micro which I did the first time as well).
Now for some reason after that, some of the apps that I try to install, just refuse to download from the App Store. They are permanently stuck at the downloading stage where the download progress bar never shows. After a few minutes they return with an Error 492. This is happening for apps like google chrome, microsoft excel, powerpoint & word, Line, Snapchat, Candy Crush, Magic Rush Heroes and few more apps. The rest of the apps just download fine.
My guess (since I am not an expert at any of this stuff) is that the restore process is where things got screwed up. I have wiped everything except internal storage (including dalvik cache and cache) to reinstall Lineage with gapps a few times and there is still no success in installing those few apps mentioned before. I have no clue how to solve this issue.
The Lineage and Gapps packages to be flashed are in internal storage and this device doesn't have an external SD Card. So I cannot wipe internal storage as well. IF there is a way to install Lineage with Gapps in spite of wiping internal storage then I dunno that process.
I am in a major fix here. Please help!
You can use adb push to put data on your internal memory. Ensure that you have usb debugging on when connect your phone.

Thanks for the suggestion! But here is the issue now! My friend in haste, wiped the whole internal storage. Now I had the data backed up luckily. But, there is no ROM or gapps zip available to flash and I am using TWRP 2.7.0.0 and I am unable to find an option to connect TWRP to an external memory such as USB OTG or USB Mass Storage to load the flash files onto the phone. It seems like my phone is bricked with only TWRP as the only recovery mode! Any way I can flash to Lineage again?

Ok I was able to push the zip files for Lineage and Gapps using adb from the computer. But now the problem is that TWRP is stuck in a permanent loop mode. The Teamwin screen appears and refreshes back to the same screen all the time. Should I switch to CWM?
Upon further research I found that using fastboot mode I can flash the latest TWRP image. I did that and thankfully the image that I had sideloaded through ADB was available and I was able to install Lineage and Gapps. Question now remains is that should I install SuperSU and root my device as it still says that the device is unrooted!
Ok back to square one! The apps listed in my original question still dont seem to be installing even after completely wiping the phone and installing Lineage OS 14.1 and gapps afresh. Any suggestions???

When I login to Google Play Store using my google account, the apps that wont install show as installed. I do not own any other device except the oneplus one that I flashed from Cyanogenmod 12.1 to Lineage 14.1 Bacon Nightly. The apps are showing as installed in the same device, whereas they are clearly not! I checked all apps under the settings section and not one of these apps are installed. This is really something strange as an issue! Any ideas forum members? Is there any thread on XDA with a solution to this problem? Please help!

What is your version of Gapp. I think for Lineage 14.1 you need 7.1.1. Sometime back I had an issue when the play service would suddenly stop. I had flashed from cm13 to slimrom. I flashed the stock rom and then flashed to slimrom and this didn't happen. May this is not properly cleaning up your /system.

I flashed gapps nano arm Nougat 7.1.. So guess that isnt the issue?
Ok even my storage seems to be blocked! I am not able to transfer files via MTP, OTG, Shareit and my camera isnt recognising the internal shared storage. The camera has permissions to access storage though. Using all file explorers available in the market, I am still not able to create folders, transfer files etc. Could this be a corrupt storage????
I have the exact same problem. I use Lineage 14.1 (2017 04 10) and android 7.1.1. I Also have certain apps which don't install (facebook, facebook messenger, snapchat). The download does not progress and after a couple minutes i also get error code 492. I just got this phone off a friend of mine, meaning i just did a factory data reset, but that didn't solve the problem.
I've always used apple or nokia in my life, thus i am a real noob at android. If a solution is found in this forum thread i'd be really happy as i can than fully use my 'new' oneplus one.

@rk92 which Stock Rom did you flash? Coz as far as I remember reading there is no AOSP Build for OPO.

@Kees de Groot Welcome to the club! Hope there are other active expert devs who can solve our problem!
@rk92 thanks a lot for your help! My internal storage permissions was the problem. It got fixed when I ran some adb shell commands from my laptop with USB Debugging enabled. Everything is normal now. Error 492 fixed.
@Kees de Groot I have a feeling that your app permissions are a problem. Check access to your internal storage. If you are able to access internal storage on your Oneplus using File Explorer to modify internal storage data, then fixing app permissions for the ones not installing will help you install them. Because all the apps that you are unable to install are due to permissions issues. These apps are not able to get access to internal storage. If internal storage access is the issue for you as well (in spite of being a rooted user), then run the commands posted on this thread. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2222297
It should fix your permissions.
Hope that helps.
Could a moderator close this thread as solved?
Regards,
GanZ
