If you're switching from something other than Omni - you need to factory reset.
If you're updating from an older Omni build with gapps installed - flash Omni and you don't need to do anything else. gapps will automatically be backed up

i updated it n everything's fine... but one problem, the playstore app is missing so I downloaded it n installed but it KEOS force closing n says google services has stopped

Cannot reproduce.
I9100 has a small system partition so you need to use "mini" gapps

Some apps break, and because some things break with ART, any bug reports you file in Omni's bugtracker (JIRA) will be closed as invalid. (well, currently closed as RTFM, we need to add an "invalid" category.)

You should wipe dalvik and cache and see if that helps. Only use the gapps that is listed at the op of the thread you got the rom from. Also might as well try an update as well

First just flash newer gapps (search on google to get a download link)
If that doesn't work then wipe and restore

Gapps are google applications. So flashing the latest version of gapps will make sure that all the google applications are fine.
I consider data precious so wipe and reset is the last option I prefer as making and restoring backup takes hell lot of time

[i9500] Play store apps isn't working

I did a nandroid backup after I just rooted my phone. So now I am running a custom rom and I decided to go back to stock android. So I flash the nandriod backup and it rebooted with no problems. But when I unlock the fone it said unfortunately Gapps have stop working and these pop-ups are coming up like every 2 seconds. So I just decided to wipe and factory reset my phone. So I did when it was finish I went through the process of setting up my phone and when I download Instagram the app keep crashing like I would be on it for like 2 mins and a pop-up would come up saying unfortunately Instagram has stop working. It even says it when I tried to post a picture. And when I download whatsapp also and i try to change my profile picture it keeps crashing.
I think it's something with the play store or something. Please help

I flash the new gapps and it didn't work. I think it because I am on stock android the gapps didn't work. But if I was a custom ROM it would have work.
Anymore solutions ?

You can't flash gapps on stock ROMs.
Flash the stock ROM and you also get the Google Apps.
