PA Gapps package FC's acore - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

AS in the title.
Any GAPPS package I flash on the latest PA crashes the acore service (which is the Play Services, right?).
Apps like Hangouts and G+ I think are the culprit, but even removing those doesn't help. Previously, on vanilla, neither of them would work, so I figured I'd branch out to AOSP to see if this helps, plus, it's nice to use. But no :/

I get this when I dirty flash. If you clear app data and cache for Contacts and Contacts Storage, then reboot, the problem should go away.

I'd come from a complete wipe (moved the zips to a usb stick and installed from a USB-OTG cable)... Everything was gone /system /data. you name it.
Ended up installing AOKP MR1 and the gapps package from march. Works great now.

HELP! - my market and phone are acting up

So, I decided to do a full wipe (minus sd) and re-install a fresh copy of CM7 7.1.0 on my Nex S. Anyways, I went into CWM, did cache wipe, factory wipe, and dalvik, wiped /data manually for good measure, and went thru installing the ROM, then my custom kernel (TEUV morfic), and then the latest gapps.
Upon boot, I notice the following things:
1. The welcome screen never comes up! It just goes to the desktop/home screen.
2. The market is gone! I've never had this happen, but it's just not there anymore
3. I can't add Google accounts like I normally do. It only allows me to add Exchange accounts.
What am I missing here?!? This is driving me nuts. I've tried reinstalling, rewiping, reflashing, re-EVERYTHING to no avail. I don't understand WTF is up with this.
You forgot to flash the latest gapps.

Note. You may have flashed the one that is labeled new-talk at the end. This is not the full gapps. You flash that file alongside the gapps with the same date.

Wallet FC when flashing new kernel

I came from Bricked kernel + PA. I re-flashed PA to restore default kernel settings, then flashed Franco kernel. I think re-flashing PA removed some of my google apps, including Wallet. I download Wallet from the Play store, then open. Once I choose an account for Wallet, it loads for a second and force closes. And every time I open Wallet, it continues to FC. If I wipe data for Wallet, I can pick an account again, and then it will FC again.
I've tried wiping Dalvik cache.
I've tried installing Wallet as a system app.
I've tried re-flashing gapps.
No luck, Wallet continues to FC. Anyone know of any solutions?
Install the wallet.apk I linked in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2098120

Thanks. That seemed to have done the trick. Do you know the source of your Wallet app? It's v87 while the market is v81. I'm not too much of a fan of using a non-market Wallet, but this will do until my next fresh wipe and hopefully the market version will work again.

[Q] Blank Black Home Screen + How Do You Uninstall Gapps?

So ive been using OmniROM 4.4 on my Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-19300 for over 6-7 months now (since around 22/11/2013). It has all been working as a treat. Two nights ago something seemed to of happened on my phone and few apps disappeared (they had the green android robot logo). I was also notified that some apps have updated. I am unsure what these apps were (my guess would be the googles apps; google books, google movies etc. because they were all next to each other in alphabetical order). So because of this i decided to turn my phone off. When i turned it back on, it would be stuck on the OmniROM Logo whilst booting up. It would be stuck on this for a few hours. So I left it over night. Then the next morning it had booted up and a error message popped up saying "Stystem UID's Inconsistent" with a button saying "I'm Feeling Lucky". So I clicked the button and unlocked the phone. Then the homescreen was black and blank. There was no background image, apps, widgets etc. However, I can access the notification bar. If i had any notifications, for an example a message on kik. I can click on it and it will take me to kik and it can use it as normal. When i click the home button it takes me back to a black blank screen.
So, My first reaction was to create a nandroid backup (of the black blank screen OmniROM) then wipe everything (data/factory, cache partition and dalvik cache) in CWM Recovery v6.0.4.4. After this I restored my old nandroid backup, this is my backup i created before i moved onto OmniROM so it was the Samsung galaxy s3 stock 4.1.2. So once i did this i was again greeted with the error message saying "Stystem UID's Inconsistent" with a button saying "I'm Feeling Lucky". So i clicked the button and set up my device. During this and after this Ive had about a billion pop up error messages saying "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped." and "Google books has stopped working" and it did this for all the other google apps. So its pretty clear that it must be something to do with Gapps (Correct me if i'm wrong please). Also, It did not allow me to get anything from the play store apart from twitter and rom manager. snapchat and the google app updates didn't work (that is all i have tried). I had error messages saying that i couldnt download it. I have tried installing gapps and OmniROM again and it works but i still get the error messages saying that gapps and google apps have stopped. I have also restored by nandroid backup of the omnirom (that I did before i wiped everything) and i still get the blank black homescreen.
So, I want to know whether it is gapps that has caused this? If so what do i need to do? Do i need to unistall it and install it again? How do i do that?
All I want is to go back to OmniROM and it works and this problem wont happen again. Also if i can get all my data (apps, pictures etc.) that i saved in my nandroid back that i did when i was on OmniROM (before i wiped everything) then that would be great!
I appreciate it very much if you have read this and helped me out.
Despite you have given lots of details, you didn't specify which GAPPS package you're using. Who's the maintainer of the package? Are you sure it's for 4.4.x?
Nonetheless, get the latest PA GAPPS package. As @TKruzze says on the official thread: "We consider these apps as important as our ROM. It is sad that the ROM scene deals with so many broken/outdated or buggy packages."
Lots of issues could be caused by a messy GAPPS package or a messy recovery.
Now I suggest doing the following:
1) Take a backup of user files (pics, music, etc...) and don't take backup of app data as that could be messy or corrupted or at least take the backup of app data but don't restore it.
2) Download the latest OmniROM nightly, SuperSU and PA GAPPS (stock package seems the one for you) and check the files' MD5 after you download to be 100% sure the files aren't corrupted.
3) Download the latest official TWRP. For the love of Android, it's been stated by OmniROM developers that it's the officially supported recovery.
4) Flash TWRP and do a full wipe (system, data, cache and both SD and internal memory).
5) Do a reboot to recovery after wiping then flash the ZIP's in this order: OmniROM > PA GAPPS > SuperSU (don't flash any custom stuff or addons for now).
6) Reboot into system and restore data gradually. Install most important apps and keep on monitoring your phone for abnormalities and make sure you clean up your SD and internal memory backups from any redundant files before you get them back on the phone (there should be a "clockworkmod" folder that's not needed).
7) All should be fine now.
Notes:
1) Uninstalling GAPPS can be done by wiping the system, cache and dalvik-cache then flashing the ROM again but I didn't suggest that as the data partition is probably already messy.
2) NANDROID backups are ZIP files, you can extract them and get some data manually. You've made a NANDROID on a bad state so you can alternatively restore that before doing any of the above and selectively backup data using Titanium Backup and the files using casual methods.
Hope that helps and sorry for it being long. But such issues are hard to tackle on and you'll be better off doing a clean install.
Happy flashing!

[Q] Problem with CM12 Play Store Error 505

Hi Community,
maybe somebody can help me with my problem
What happend:
I had a LG G2 (D802) with CM11M12 installed on it. Also Tasker and Taskwatch were installed. I decided to upgrade to the first CM12 official nightly. I installed it over TWRP without a full wipe (only Cache and Dalvik). Something with the Play Store didn't work. I wanted to install an app (I don't know anymore which it was) but it didn't install cause of error 505. I thought it was because I flashed it over CM11.
So this time I made a full wipe, pushed CM12 and GApps (KK) through ADB into my storage and installed it clean. It didn't start. There was an error at the homescreen. Setup Wizard or something like that crashed every second.
I flashed TWRP 2.8.3.0 and tried it again. Same result.
I made a full wipe again. Pushed CM11M12, CM12 and GApps through ADB and installed CM11M12. The phone booted. I installed CM12 and GApps. Now it worked. Everything is just fine, BUT I can't install Tasker and Taskwatch. If I install Tasker and try to install Taskwatch, then I get the 505 error. When I uninstall Tasker I can install Taskwatch, but can't install Tasker anymore. I uninstalled Tasker via ADB. Same result.
Edit 01/10/2015: I did a full wipe (cache, data, dalvik, internal storage) and format data. I installed todays CM12 and LP GApps. This time it booted and worked without problems with setup wizard. Problem with error 505 remains.
Question:
What can I do to install both apps and not only one of them?
Thank you in advance.
Well I'm on the latest CM12 nightly +LP gapps and I get error 504 when installing certain programs like facebook, viber but not all of them give me this error. On some I get it on the first try and then it works. I deleted playstore cache and all the crap I could find over web but nothing helped. Wiped/factory reset still nothing.

Seems like another problem. 505 is related to a permission error. 504 is bad gateway, but I don' know the answer for your problem. Maybe you could try to install another GApps Version. Can you install those apps through Amazon App Store or via an apk file? Because I can't do that, the permession is still present. And I can install both application, but not together.
In fact I don't even know whose fault it is (error 505), could be one of these apps or Cyanogenmod or Google. As far as the stock 5.0 or a Cyanogenmod Snapshot will come out, I will try to install both apps again or has anyone a better solution?
Still the same problem
Thought it would maybe work with the newest Nightly (20150207), but I was wrong. Wiped everything, installed with gapps. Can install Tasker but not Pebble TaskWatch. Or Taskwatch without Tasker (which makes no sense).
Can you solve it? I have the same problem

google play services stoped - after flashing CM13

Hi there, came from stock galaxy s4 jfltexx with lollipop. Wanted to flash CM13 nightly with gapps. After flashing CM13 and gapps there is a problem with the gapps. Right after reboot "unfortunately google play services has stopped" appears again and again.
Here is what I've done:
- flashed CF-Auto-Root via Odin
- flashed TWRP 3.0.0.0 via Odin
- downloaded CM13 nightly from 28.03.
- downloaded gapps nano from 28.03.
- did a full wipe
- wiped /system
- installed cm13 (from internal /sdcard)
- installed gapps (from internal /sdcard)
- cleared dalvik and cache
- rebooted
- "unfortunately google play services has stopped" appears
things I've tested:
- repeated the steps - no change
- tried earlier gapps - no change
did some tricky advises:
- took off sim card & didn't use wifi to bypass setup wizard (worked but no change)
- set all permissions for google services and play store within preferences (done, no change)
- rebooted and cleared dalvik and cache (no change)
- re-installed play services as apk (worked but no change)
- re-installed play store as apk (worked but no change)
- stopping google play services isn't possible (grayed)
Hmm, I'm not a technical noob (I think) but this one makes me crazy. I have a galaxy s4 jfltexx with 32GB internal memory.
Went back to lollipop backup.
Anyone there with the same problem and maybe a solution? Would give CM13 a try but without gapps usability is
missing a little bit.
Sorry for bad english.

Might wanna try a different gapps package (package, not earlier builds).
Open gapps is pretty much hit and miss. Some days the packages work and other days they don't. So either try a different package, like micro or pico, or try different gapps altogether. A-Gapps and banks gapps seem to be popular. Note that A-Gapps is a very slim package, similar to pico gapps.
Or you could try a different rom.
clearing all the google related apps' data from settings/apps and then rebooting is also worth a try.
playstore
google play services
google services framework

Don't use Opengapps. That also gives me a lot of problems. Use Banks Gapps instead.

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll experiment with different gapps like a-gapps since I already tried different packages from open gapps.
Yessss, a-gapps did the trick for me and works perfectly . Many thanks for the suggestions.
I'm having exactly the same problems. i have tried 5 different Open GApps ROMS,
I've tried BaNks_Dynamic_GApps_6.x.x_3_11_16_34.zip.
I've tried A-GAPPS 6.0.1_18022016_4.1.zip
I have tried numerous sequences of Cache/Davlik wipes. Makes no difference if I perform those wipes in between CM13 and GApps, or just do the wipes at the end.
I have tried the Permissions fix on Google Play Services.
I've tried removing the microSD card and only using internal storage.
Basically, I've wasted 14 hours on this, and every combination I've tried results in Google Play Services errors. Some packages produce the errors less frequently, but all do it.
Enough is enough, I've just reverted back to CM12.1. It all worked flawlessly and only took a couple of minutes.
(All this hassle because I'd read that CM13 nightlies had fixed an issue with ChromeCast and Photos/Slides)
It works!
I can happily say that after trying again with new nightlies, I have CM13 working with OpenGApps
I've used the 2016-03-31 CM13 nightly for jfltexx
With the 2016-04-01 Opengapps mini nightly
Used TWRP 2.8.7.0
Installation couldn't have been simpler.
On my newly installed CM12.1 phone
Booted into TWRP
Backed up
From microSD card, loaded the CM13 zip
also queued up the OpenGapps zip
Flashed both at once
Wiped davlik/cache
rebooted
Phone still has all my apps and settings.
Google play works
I can cast photos and slides to my ChromeCast.
I suspect a change in the 2016 -03-30 CM13 nightly may be responsible for the fix
"Fix ownership for files/folders created by ExternalStorageProvider on ext4/f2fs"
So far, CM13 seems very stable. I hope this helps someone
Confirmed! Tried 2016-03-31 CM13 nightly with 2016-04-02 Opengapps nano. Now it works without the "Unfortunately the Google Service has stopped" error.
Tried also CM13 2016-04-01 - no Google Play service error but any text starts with "MOD...". This is for sure a problem with the nightly, so 2016-03-31 seems to work well with open gapps.
