[Q] Installed ROM, but errors for SU & GAPPS?? - Omni Q&A

Good Morning:
I can download and install the OmniRom for the M7UL fine using TWRP. After I install the ROM, I try to install the SU or GAPPS but I always get an error when I do so. I have tried booting into OmniRom and then going back to TWRP and install the SU & GAPPS but no luck. I have tried wiping the cache/dalvik after the ROM install and still won't install anything. It just says it can't open up the zip (SU or GAPPS).
Any ideas?

No clue - both ZIPs flash fine in TWRP for me on all of my devices - device-specific TWRP issue maybe???

Just double check that your using gapps for 4.3 from 8/13/13 and latest SU 1.65 when you watch it flash on TWRP it should say something like now installing gapps for android 4.3. Last but not least does the gapps package work with other AOSP 4.3 roms like CM10.2 it might just be a corrupted download.

[Q] CM 11 Issues a plenty

Verizon VS980, TWRP 2.6.3.3
Finally, upgraded to the above TWRP, and was able to flash a CM 11 nightly. and Gapps for 4.3.0, 20130813 and to have that finally flash successfully is great! BUT it's not, when I boot into it I get an android system error and the keyboard AOSP error every time, I can't make it past the screen where I enter in my account.
I have wiped and tried again, and again, I have installed the ROM and gapps and then wiped dalvik and cache and same result...
It seems so close.
I have installed ROM Manager as well and it says that CWM is installed yet I cannot seem to boot into it, I have flashed it from the ROM Manager many times and no love. I was able to flash a zip of twrp, is there a zip of CWM that is flashable from twrp, I have heard that cwm works better with CM 11
Please help, I have no idea why going to CM 11 should be such a pain in the..
Thanks!!!
SO i figured it out

[Q] How do I install GApps on tf300t with twrp2.6.1 and CM10.2

I have a tf300t with twrp 2.6.1 and cyanogenmod 10.2 stable installed.
Because I installed cyanogenmod 10.2 I do not have Google play store and the other standard Google apps installed anymore.
I read an article which said that I had to install GApps to solve this problem.
May this is a stupid question but I do not know how to install GApps on my tf300t tablet.
I already download the zip file for Gapps apps for Android 4.3 (because CM 10.2 caused Android 4.3).
How can I install the GApps zip file?
Can I use the install function of twrp 2.6.1.?
I am familiar with root-ing my tablet by de twrp install function (install the supersu zip file with twrp).
Is this the same procedure (can I install the GApps zip file with twrp install function)?
Please help?
Just update using TWRP

You should be able to install directly Gapps package using TWRP or CWM (that's what I did. Have you tried?

Because I did know what the impact will be, I asked this question.
Did you install the GApps zip with twrp?
I only found an article which uses CWM to install GApps zip and not twrp.
So I want to know if you can install GApps zip with twrp.

You can install GApps with any recovery, such as TWRP.
Thanks.
It worked. I installed GApps with the install function of twrp.

Nexus 7 2012 can't install GApps

Hi, i have on my N7-2012 TWRP 3.0.2.
I did Advanced Wipe for all partitions, and Format Data. I changed /data and /cache to f2fs and flashed a Nougat ROM from this form (DirtyUnicorn) I had no troubles.
I wiped system again (to avoid space problems during the flash of Gapps) and tried to flash GApps 'open_gapps_arm7.0-micro-20161018.zip', but i got this error:
*** Incompatible Android ROM detected ***
This GApp pkg is for Android 7.0.x ONLY
Please download the correct version for
your ROM: 5.1.1 (SDK 22)
*** GApps intallation failed ***
- Copying log to /usb-otg/Nexus 7 Asus
- NO changes were made to your device
Install will now exit...
Error code: 20
- Unmounting
I tried with other nougat ROM such as Carbon but i got the same error. The weirdness is that i tried also with a MM rom, and tried to flash GApps for MM... again, same error! He ask for a 5.1.1 GApps! So strange.
So, only for my curiosity, i reflashed DU ROm, downloaded and flashed GApps for 5.1.1. First time, i got the error:
*** Incompatible Android ROM detected ***
This GApp pkg is for Android 5.1.1 ONLY
Please download the correct version for
your ROM: 7.0.0 (SDK 22)
*** GApps intallation failed ***
i tried again and flash worked, i rebooted the device and..... bootloop... obviously.
Can you help me?
UPDATE: i forget to say that i tried also with: nano and pico gapps, and Banks Gapps. Same problem. if i reboot the device without gapps the rom work but if i download apk play store and install it doesn't work when i open it.
pls, noone can help me? :crying:

Are you wiping "system" after installing the ROM? If so, you are effectively removing the ROM you just installed which leaves the GAPPS script nothing to detect to install. The proper install would be: Flash ROM and the Flash Gapps (usually pico or nano to save space) and then reboot, no wiping in between.
I had this issue no matter what rom I tried after flashing an android 7.0 rom. I just did a factory reset by flashing back to a factory image now everything seems fine and google apps are working again.
I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1907796 but used kit kat 4.4.4 image and didn't lock the boot loader. Then flash the recovery of your choice again and your good to go.

Yes i wiped /system cause after the flash of the ROM when i try to install GApps i get error "not enough space". I followed the tips of a xda GUIDE wiping /system
@dinotyped: Are you telling me that there's no way to have Nougat on my N7? :crying::crying:
@qwerweteryu You should be able to use Nougat roms ok. I've not tried again. I'll likely stick to marshmallow for the time being just because of personal preference.

Stick with "Pico" (or possibly) "Nano" Gapps to make sure you have enough space after flashing the ROM. You can always go back after booting / setting up and install the other Google Apps that you want.

SuperSU breaks boot?

I just reloaded oxygen 3.1.0 on my device, unlocked and flashed recovery. Everything works fine to this point but as soon as I flash superSu my phone stops booting. I have tried clearing the cache and checked for the recommended version of the superSU zip with the same result. Anyone have any suggestions?

Which recovery ? Which superSu version ?
SuperSU 2.79
TWRP 3.0.2-2

There shouldn't be a problem as I've used these versions without any problems.
Try a clean flash (wipe data + cache + dalvik cache) with latest superSu beta(2.79 SR1).
Search for supersu in oneplus forums for oxygen 3.1.0 since normal supersu will break boot.

To succesfully install the newest Versions of SuperSU you have to install it in systemless mode. If you flash the ZIP it will install it in /system mode, so you have to force the systemless install.
Before you flash the newest Beta SuperSU.zip go to the TWRP terminal and write:
echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu
Then flash the ZIP.
SuperSU will be installed in systemless mode and your Phone will boot up fine.

[Q] GApps not visible (installed)?

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.

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.
