What do you mean your screen is "blank/empty/black"? At the first boot after flashing Gapps, you should be greeted with a Setup Wizard to restore your Google stuff. Gapps is supposed to install Play Store, Gmail, Gtalk, and some others, I forget. Sounds like you did a bad flash. Make sure the zips aren't corrupted, and do a clean flash. Also, be sure to flash the ROM then Gapps.

after the setup wizard i got a black screen, then i pressed the home button and everything was fine. so i guess that black screen was just nova launcher.
anyway i found out how to remove nova launcher, using titanium backup. but yea i though gapps would install more things than it did. it installed the playstore, google sync, gmail and like 1 or 2 other things. no google maps or anything so i'm not sure what i'm missing from the default google apps selections.

My understanding is some apps aren't included for legal reasons. You can find maps in the playstore as well as wallet and a few others.

For those people who have a Chinese version of the Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9006 it is possible after rooting and installing CWM to flash Google GApps onto the phone giving access to the Google Play store (even though it still localizes showing many Chinese apps by default), Google Accounts, and well everything Google except Google Now. For some reason it still wont function.
Sorry I am not able to give complete credit to who ever came up with the hack because I followed through so many threads last night that I couldn't completely backtrack to the origin. However, I can walk you through my steps to get it on your phone. *****IF you bootloop your phone or brick it I am NOT responsible***** that said following the steps as laid out on the site below has a high probability of successfully rooting your phone.
Step 1. Root the phone: I used the process laid out by galaxynote3root (dot) com making sure to download all the files (I didn't need to download the samsung drivers since I already had them) and then following the root process using ODIN.
Step 2. I flashed SuperUser onto the phone using CWM.
Then I started searching this site, and few others as well as some Chinese sites for how to get the google play store to work, and that's where I lost my footprints into random thread jumping and linking. Finally leading me to site that talked about how to flash Google Play on to the Dual Sim S4 [[[ support.mobicity (dot) com/entries/22148360-How-to-flash-the-Google-Play-Store-on-the-Dual-SIM-Galaxy-S4-GT-i9502 ]]] Guessing that there wouldn't be too much difference between the 4.2.2 version and the 4.3 version of GApps I took a shot in the dark and flashed the GApps file onto my phone using CWM
Step 3. Download the S4 GT-i9502 GApps file from [[[ hotfile (dot) com/dl/232926252/272b320/i9502_FILES.zip.html ]]] The process for flashing this to your phone is the same as flashing SU using CWM.
Put the zip file onto the internal storage of the phone
Turn the power off
Press Volume UP POWER and HOME until the screen flashes and the developer's text appear at the top of the screen release the HOME button continuing to hold UP and POWER
In the CWM screen scroll down to the i9502_Files.zip, press the enter key, and install the only file that says YES.
Once installed reboot the phone and there you go, you now have access to Google Play and all Google Apps except Google Now (still don't know how to fix that)
The only problems that I have encountered is that the Google Search feature seems to crash a lot, which will crash chrome and google voice, google translate, anything that uses Google Search. However, the play store works just fine. Since I don't use Chrome that often because it uses too much data by comparison to UC Browser, I am not entirely concerned with it.
If this works for you, and you Don't experience the Google Search crash please tell me in the comments. I want to know whats different and why mine crashes. If you have already fixed that problem also PLEASE share because I do love google voice search.

Thank you so much!! I was stressing out because they didnt wanna swap my phone, and i didnt know when a gapps and custom rom would, if ever, be realeased for these chinese models, but your gapps zip did the trick!
Also, it working perfectly. Hasnt hung one time at all and i used it for many days. Gmail, and everything.
One thing i remember from prvious days of flashing, and that i did this time too; remember to clear all cache, do a factory reset and stuff before you install the GAPPS. Maybe that will help. Not sure if factory reset is needed, but i remember that some of these things were important to clean first for it to be installed correctly. Once i didnt, and i ended up with the programs stopping like you described.
Good luck and many thanks mate

I just didn't want to use the Baidu App store or some other Chinese app shop because I don't know if they have mod'ed the apps to include data mining codes or not. Not that I store anything super secrete in my phone but I wanted official GPlay apps.
As for the my Google Chrome and Google Search crashing on me, I didn't find a way to fix them directly so I deleted the apps and reinstalled them now no problems at all.:laugh:

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I recently purchased the SM-N9006 in Shanghai and just rooted the device following the exact same steps as you listed.
However, when I try to install the GApps file you linked it starts and then aborts the installation with the little Android icon fallen over and with a red !. Not sure what's going on but if anyone has run into this problem please let me know. Or if you have another GApps file that works please share.
Thanks again for your help!
N9006 English Replacement ROM
Would it be possible to flash a replacement ROM over the Chinese ROM and fix all of the Chinese issues? I brought the N9006 back from China to the USA and have no need for anything Chinese.
Seems for about the same effort it is a better solution if the hardware is close enough between the two ROMs.
Play now working but how to get Gmail, Google Music, Google Now, etc.?
Ok got the GApps file successfully installed. Next bit though...
How can I get apps not available in China like Gmail, Google Music, etc? Just seems limited which is a bummer. Thanks for your help!
Hi Guys,
I'm on the same boat since i have the N9002 version.
I have already managed to get the Gapps working except Google Now (Cannot show Cards).
I fount that Gapps in the link below to perform the best.
In order to get the Cards to show in Google Now, the device language should be set to (English US). which is missing in the CSC for the N9002 and most probably in your N9006's CSC.
So, we do need someone to help on adding other countries to our 9006 and 9002 CSCs
Cheers

Just go with a stock ROM?
I am looking at replacing the ROM with a custom ROM. I prefer a stock ROM but can not find out if any English Samsung stock ROMs will work on my N9006.
Any reason not to go with a custom ROM?

How are you getting Google Music and the TB Pro version installed?
My biggest challenge now is to install the Google Music app. I get the "not available in your country" whenever I try to download it. I've been doing a google search to open the direct link in the play store and that's when the error pops up. Same goes for whenever I try to upgrade the Titanium Backup to the Pro version.
So... my question, how are you guys getting the Google Music app installed? I'd really like it as I've synced my music with Google Music. I'm guessing I should try to find the .apk file somewhere and then install using the CWM at boot-up? Thanks for your help!

Many thanks! Works like a charm. Question - How are you finding the right/compatible downloads? I'm missing the Google Now if you have that and don't mind sharing. I'm trying to learn this whole Android thing but clearly not quick enough. Thanks again!
Did you try to browse the play store from your computer ?
As for Google Now, i could only me it work after Wipe Data and connecting through a VPN, but as soon as i installed my Unicom SIM card it stopped working.
On the other side, I think that by Adding my google account while VPN is on helped in relsoving the problem with Google Search crashing.
Let me know if you need Google Search.

We all seem to be having different experiences .. very strange.
I used the directions from gaylonalfano below, but the gapps file he recommended would not work. By using the gapps file from just above this message I got the store installed. (had to search for the file, the url was not valid) At first I received a lot of stoppage errors, after re-starting and re-registering several times the stoppages have reduced to almost none.
This bit of success was the key for me to switch SIMs and start to use the III as my primary phone. I look forward to a complete ROM update if additional Chinese ROM issues crop up.

Getting out of the China Play Store
I can share my experience, it may be relevant for some of you. I live in China, but don't read Chinese, so obviously don't want to deal with the Chinese version of the play store. Note, I buy my phones outside of China and dont' know anything about rooting, so this is just about the play store. If you're in China with an international version OR you have a China version and you're seeing the China play store and don't want to, this is how I fix....
On international phones, Play store looks first at sim, and then at Wifi to see what country you're in and what store to show you.
1. Power off
2. Remove Sim
3. Turn phone on
3a. If you're in China, connect to wifi, then connect to VPN and choose whatever country you want the playstore to think you're from
3b. If you're not in China, proceed to step 4
4. Go to application manager and find google play store, click on it and then press "Clear Data" and "Clear Cache"
5. Then open playstore. It should then present you with the version of the country you're in (or you're emulating being in over VPN).
If you live in China but want to buy apps, you'll need to go to the google wallet thing (only ever got it to work on PC over VPN) and then use a credit card that is NOT Chinese. Strangely I use a Singapore CC, but play store seems to think I'm in HK, either way ok with me as not CN.
Good luck, hope above helps. Note, again, this is pretty much for international people/phones in China, not sure if above is relevant for people with China phone in other countries.
So I'm on 4.4 KitKat with the Google Experience Launcher and can't activate Google Now. I'm using PA Gapps 4.4. I can't use Titanium backup to uninstall it because I'm on ART. So I don't know what to do...
I tried changing languages but that didn't work. I tried setting a reminder so it gives me the option, but still it just crashes back to the homescreen.

Do you have the latest Google Search installed? Download it from the Play Store.
ART is still very experimental. It may cause a lot of bugs. Try switching to Dalvik. Does the problem persist?

Yes the problem persists. I had this problem on 4.3 PA GAPPS too. I switched back to dalvik to use Titanium to uninstall it and then re-install it but that still didn't work. What I usually do is, uninstall updates, activate Gnow and then install the latest version, however I cannot uninstall updates....I need to find a way to get the stock Gnow version.
If you're using the Google launcher you have the latest version, Google Now is the launcher itself. It should be enabled as long as you have the GmsCore, downloaded your offline speech recognition package, and logged into your PlayStore account.
If you are using ART, you need to make sure to use the odexed gapps package for it to be compatible.

It was working when I was using GEL on 4.3. As soon as I flashed GAPPs 4.4 and PA 4.4 I had no way of enabling it. ART or dalvik doesn't have anything to do with it.

Didn't work either. I just don't know man :/ I added 3 accounts, none of them worked.
Hey, everytime I open my Google Play Store (which I had to get from the internet) it opens for a while, until I try to download something and then is crashes. After it crashes by trying to download something and I try to re-open it, it just crashes on startup and I get a message saying "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped." So this has been happening since yesterday when I used Clean Master to clear up some space on my device, I also link some apps to play using Titanium Backup (don't know if that has anything to do with it) and I attempted to uninstall Google+, and was successful also I applied a custom patch to the Play Store when it worked using lucky patcher. I searched everywhere on the internet and the only solutions i could find are:
1) Clear Play Store and Google Play Services Caches.
2) Enable Download Manager (Which I can't seem to find but I'm not entirely sure on that one so I'll post screenies)
The download manager shown in the screen cap below has no enable or disable option with it)
3) Wipe Android Device completely (Which I did and problem still persisted)
4) Re-Flash ROM. (Which I also did and the problem still continues
So, Im on a completely stock firmware and as soon as I finish going through the setup process feeling relieved I see a notification in my notification shade from the calendar app stating that Google Play Services isn't enabled or something and when I click on the notification the phone fumbles for a second and then the calendar app crashes. After a few minutes, while I was searching for answers, I got my email notifications and everything seemed to be fine. UNTIL I installed the Google Play Store once again, only to have it open and my first attempt to download an app made it crash. And now I'm back to square one. I cannot find "Download Manager" at the bottom of my application list. But I do have two applications under "D" in the App Manager, both called "Downloads".
I'm able to install APKs off the browser just by downloading and installing as normal, and my accounts seem to be working fine. Except the error in the google account "sync error" followed by a message at the bottom of the screen saying sync services are currently unavailable. I'm able to use Youtube and other apps easily without a problem. The only problem is my Play Store. And yes I've already re-cleared the cache and even just cleared the data from both play services and play store in application manager. Problem still persists.
Previous Errors:
1) Device is not provisioned data services error (Which I assume I've fixed because I don't get that error anymore)
2) Google Play Services not supported by your device. (Whenever I opened Youtube, but that doesn't appear anymore)
I'm really out of options this time, I was stumped after I factory restored with ODIN successfully and still was unable to fix my problem. Could this be a Google problem or am I screwed? Really need answers, so THANK YOU VERY MUCH in advance.

New problem
Okay so I decided to wipe the phone once more and re-install the ROM (Which is a stock MF3 ROM that I got from XDA) and the problem still continues, I've been up all night trying to figure this out. Now apps like Google+ (Which I hade to install from the internet on my device) say that the Google Play Services on my device is not supported by my device? What does this mean? It used to happen with the newest version of youtube, now im currently using the old version of youtube which has no problem, and im pretty sure if i were to update it id get the same error. Someone pelase give me some insight. What can possibly be done?

It used to happen with the newest version of youtube, now im currently using the old version of youtube which has no problem, and im pretty sure if i were to update it id get the same error. Someone pelase give me some insight. What can possibly be done?

You used all files in the full MF3 Odin? I don't know why it wouldn't work, but your only option may be updating to MK2. It's a very peculiar issue. You could also wipe data in stock recovery and then flash the Odin file to make sure it's as clear as possible.

FIXED IT
After much searching for the problem I gave up and decided to try reloading the stock OS once more and it worked that time... I still have no idea what caused the problem...
Similar issue
Did you ever figure out what the problem was? I'm haing a similar issue with NI1. I'm using titanium backup to restore many of my apps and don't know if it's something I'm doing there that's causing the problem to keep coming back.
I've reloaded stock rom via Safestrap at least twice. But the problem is still there. I can't be certain but i think it may have to do with the syncing of contacts or data with google.
You could always try to reflash the gapps package... If you freeze a part of the gapps package like google services framework, other apps seem to not want to work.

Gapps package? This is the i337. There is no gapps package for the i337 on mf3 or nl1
