[Q] PA Gapps not installing - General Paranoid Android Discussion

When I attempt to install the PA gapps, it "succeeds" but when I restart into both Alpha 1 and 2, I have none of the gapps in the stock package. I am using the zip that @TKruzze provided for 5.0.1, but Alphas 1 and 2 are 5.0.2. Would this cause the gapps not to show up? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
EDIT: It appears I was flashing things in the wrong order: I flashed gapps and then ROM (it's been a while ^^'), and also the gapps package was too large for my tiny Nexus 7's system partition.

Nexus 7 gapps won't work

I've got AOKP 8/15 flashed and it works fine without gapps, but any gapps package I flash boots into recovery every single time. Is there a special set of gapps I should be using? (Formula 84's custom gapps allow the rom to start, but certain features force close)
Also, yes, it's the grouper aokp, I clean flashed, and I've tried all the quick fixes.

[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
I was following/using rootz wiki for my reference of which gapps to use and it is not updated right now
got the right gapps here, and all is good now

installing gapps on custom ROMS

When I first installed CM 11 M1 from stock kitkat, I didn't have the playstore, so I had to download the gapps package.
Ever since CM 11 M1, I've tried different custom roms, but everytime I flashed them from the custom recovery, they all came with the playstore.
Should I be installing the gapps from the package?? Or can I just install the apps from the playstore??
Either way works. From the play store you can pick and choose what you install and can be uninstalled without jumping through hoops because they install as user apps. When you flash gapps, they typically go in as system apps and are a bit more troublesome to get rid of if you don't want everything in the package.

Addition to what said above, just open the gapps package ade delete which ever apks you don't need. This way you can get rid of the apps you don't want to install as system app. To me, modular PA gapps or banks core gapps is enough. You don't need to flash full package gapps.

This is because gapps has updater script and as long as you won't manually format system your previously installed gapps will remain in a new rom. (including play store)
Installing apps from gapps package via recovery will install the apps to system partition.
Installing apps from play store will install them to user data partition.
In order to save space in user data I recommend installing the gapps you need to system partition via recovery.
Thanks for info guys :good::laugh:

Nexus4 Gapps

I made a root in my Nexus 4 and installed the latest CyanogenMod for my device (cm 13.0-20160320-NIGHTLY mako) But have no doubt in which GAPPS install on my machine, I tried to stock but gave error 70. I wish tell me what the best GAPPS install, so you have no error with my aparelho.Instalei peak but would like to know better.:good:
You can flash any arm gapps made for mm.

how to do it actually the flash thing of gapps
Copy the gapps file to the phone's internal memory and flash the gapps file using twrp. Don't unzip the gapps file before flashing.

opengapps giving error 20 with trwp 3.0.2.0 and 2.8.7.0

Hey Gang - I've got an issue here getting opengapps installed into marshmallow.
Background - N10 needed a refresh - we officially updated a few times (from 4.x to 5.0 to 5.1,etc) and by the end, the tablet was taking forever to reboot (updating or optmizing 160+ apps every boot), so I finally decided to start fresh. I though.. why not marshmallow.
I followed the guide here:
http://www.techtimes.com/articles/9...ndroid-6-0-marshmallow-on-google-nexus-10.htm
Basically unlocked the tablet, installed twrp and then embarked. I diverted from the original instructions to use 2.8.7.0 and used latest. (3.0.2.0)
the marshmallow image referenced in the link installed well and the system boots/runs much better... my problem comes with installing opengapps from twrp. I downloaded the arm/6.0/stock version and pushed to file system with adb, then tried an install from twrp. It seems the opengapps installer (20150519) performs a software check to ensure the version of gapps is compatible with the version on Android. My problem is that it seems to be verifying against the recovery kernel and not the installed kernel.
I have the understanding that the load I installed is in fact 6.0, however it appears that twrp is built from 5.1.1 and the openGapps installer queries (I think) the twrp kernel, then determines that it cannot install. I get an error 20 message and specific dialogue that says the
"This GApps pkg is for Android 6.0.x ONLY
Please download the correct version for
your ROM: 5.1.1 (SDK 22)."
It then fails and returns me to TWRP. So next I tried the TWRP version (2.8.7.0) specified in the techtimes link I referenced above, and I get a similar error except ROM 4.4.4 SDK (19).
So it would appear that Gapps is checking local runtime only.
Is there any to fix this, or is it something I am doing wrong?
Help please!
Same problem here.

The error is telling you the problem. You are on 5.1.1 and trying to flash a gapps for 6.0. either upgrade your rom to a 6.0 rom or flash gapps for 5.1.1

If you're getting the same error, you have the same solution.

Then why does the SDK version reported by the opengapps installer change when changing the TWRP version, but not when changing the Android version installed on the device?

The only reason the gapps version would be different is if you are flashing different versions. TWRP does not change the version and it does not have a kernel. Sometimes opengapps doesn't seem to play well with TWRP on this device. You could try Khaon's TWRP and / or a different gapps version like Bank's.

I am having the same problem twice - 1) When I try to install 7.1.x it states I need to install version 6.0.1.
2) When I try to install 6.0.1 it states I need to install version 7.1.x.
Error 20 each time and it's Lineage 14.1 for Nexus 7 I am attempting to install them in (which is Android 7.1.2).
In addition I am now again (upon 3rd install attempt) being shown error 70, but I (having had it resize the system partition) have more than enough space for as much: (this website is blocking me from posting a link to the photo so simply change the following to the correct format) (drive.google(dot com)/open?id=1aaCiOwzoGRgrZPkJPuEj3jQOc-3hgnH3) so this doesn't make sense...
What now must be done to install this apps application?
I have tried all possible versions of Gapps. None of them install. What must be done in addition to this topic's early post is what I am unclear about. Those instructions claimed that increasing the size of the system partition would do the job, yet did nothing of the sort. I even tried reinstalling the OS, following the instructions here then again attempting to install all forms of the Gapps application, but yet again none would install.
Gapps problem
I faced same issue, gapps error return by 20.
After finished flashing rom, you will reboot system. Then you go back to recovery and flash gapps,it will work

Not to revive a dead thread, but since I've had the same issue as the last post, and resolved it on the same device, Nexus 7 (2013 flo 16 gb) I thought I'd chime in to tell how I worked around it for that device. I could not install any Android 9 ROM that would allow me to install any Open GApps without getting that aforementioned error 70 in TWRP. I finally tried the combination of AICP (unofficial) based on Pie [AOSP Extended (unofficial) also worked] and GApps for Android 9 arm Pico. That version of GApps and either of those two ROMs allow me to get the Nexus 7 running again with Android Pie. I don't know why that worked, but I should mention I didn't have that problem with my Nexus 7 deb that has 32 gb onboard, so I'm guessing it had something to do with the different sizes. I can run any Pie ROM on the deb tablet. I hope this helps.
