What gapps package are you guys using with AOSP roms like AICP, CM etc. Mine getting stuck at 'preparing contacts storage' during boot after flashing open gapps arm64 packages. I tried nano, micro, stock.
It boots on the second attempts, but contacts doesn't sync. Any ideas?

Hello and thank you for using Q/A,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/slimroms/general/gapps-official-slim-gapps-trds-slimkat-t2792842
Hey everyone, I rooted my phone, unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP, and then flashed CyanogenMod 13 (Marshmallow). Everything worked perfectly, so I went back into my recovery to flash Gapps. I've tried Open Gapps and Slim Gapps, but both repeatedly crash setup wizard and clock among other things.
If anyone could help, I'd really appreciate it.

These are the Gapps that worked for me

Thank you for the help wikked26, but it didn't work. Those Gapps still crash for me. I think it's something incorrect in the way my phone is configured, not a case of downloading the wrong Gapps.
If anyone has any other ideas, please share them! I haven't cracked the case just yet
I know I was having issues with the Slimroms version where I booted into CM and set it up before installing Gapps. Fixed it by reinstalling/wiping the cache and installing Gapps before booting anything. Don't know if that helps, but I'm running fine now.
I'm hoping this is similar to the issue I'm having. Do you get it where you can factory reset in TWRP, then flash CM13, but when you go to flash Slim Gapps? Because I figured out that after factory resetting TWRP will only successfully flash 1 zip file. I also tried to wipe the cacher, dalvik, data, and system, then flash cm13 but Gapps still wouldn't flash. Maybe its a bug with TWRP 3.0.2? I'm going to try to use a different version of TWRP and I'll update with my results
EDIT: TWRP 2.8.5 did not do anything different
Wow, thanks for all the great responses. I made sure to try and install CM13 and Gapps at the same time, before boot, after wiping everything one last time. It worked flawlessly, and I can now use Google Play Services.
I hope this thread helps anyone else who is also a little stuck. I also found that TWRP didn't have any issues flashing multiple zips at the same time, not sure whats going on with you, Orange Officer. Perhaps try removing your battery after CM13 flashes, and then boot into TWRP again and flash Gapps without booting up CM13 at all?
Hey guys! So I just flashed cm13 on my zen5. And I'm having a problem with gapps. I have downloaded the x86, 6.0 pico version of it. The rom flashed fine i suppose. The issue is with gapps. As soon as I started to flash gapps, 3 lines of error came and went immediately. After that once again I tried and it showed it was done. I booted the rom after clearing dalvik and cache.(I'm dumb and I forgot to clear system data and all). So now, as soon as the OS boots, it gives me force close. For every single app. What to do? Please help.
UPDATE: UPDATE: The error was with TWRP it seems. None of the files are flashing through TWRP. Can you give me the latest/stable TWRP link for it? For the time being, I have no google play services whatsoever in my device. The rom is from dgadelha I think. CM13.1 20161205

While I was on XOSP I faced the same problem so I had to go to 2.8.x version.
Hello guys,
i'm having the problem that whatever custom rom i'm trying to install with TWRP it will boot forever(>15min).
The stock OxygenOS boots just fine.
Rom's i've tried LineageOS 14.1, Resurrection Remix 5.8.3, ViperOS and some inofficial CM/LOS 13 versions.
Of course i tried to install all of them cleanly.
Once the installation failed or was corrupted and I had to use this unbrick guid to get access to my phone again: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/oneplus-solution-hard-bricked-device-t3183449
Things i've tried so far: Reinstall TWRP, try different versions of each ROM and TWRP
Do you have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: With clean install of newest OxygenOS(3.5.8) SimCard isnt being recognized.

Hi you there,
I start this thread because I´m having some issues installing 8.0 and 8.1 Oreo Roms, every of them have the same problems when I try to install them in my device (REDMI 3X). Actually, I have install and running Resurrection Remix Nougat + Gapps Micro, and it works fine.
When I try to install some Oreo Rom, I have these 2 possible options:
1 - I install rom + gapps (no matter which one, cause I tried each one): phone restarts and stucks at logo and after maybe 30 minutes I must restart it manually and reinstall a nougat rom. It never starts, and it is f...ng annoying.
2 - I install rom, afterwards, I restart and it works fine, but I have no gapps. The I boot into recovery and after gapps are installed I restart the phone, then gapps never work.
Please, I just get 2 times an oreo rom working, but now they never work, I don´t know whta to do. I also tried different recoveries, flashing them from PC, installing them from .img with TWRP, nothing seems to work. As I said: F...NG ANNOYING. I need heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp
I think I am not the only one with this problem, if anyone can help I will appreciate that.
Thansk in advance.
First of all, this should be in the Q&A section. Secondly, I can help you. I'm sure that you downloaded the gapps from the cloudkenzo something, right? Yeah those gapps do not have any issues, instead they make an issue. After flashing your rom and then these gapps file, the system partition normally unmounts. But usually when you boot into the ROM, the partition should re-mount. These unofficial gapps causes some issues with that. A simple solution- Just mount system in twrp, now reboot to system and you should be fine. I faced the same issue and this is my solution.

Make sure using the latest twrp.
If u already have the latest twrp then the problem is in gapps, use gapps for oreo 8.1, maybe there is posted in ur rom thread

You ask in wrong place stupid!
Ask in Q&A section stupid!
This section jus for downloading rom and kernel stupid!
I face the same issue with a Redmi 3 S (global version) with 3 GB RAM. Nougat ROM's are fine but all Oreo ROM's which I tried (most recent builds of PixelExperience, crDroid, Atomic-OS) show these boot loops. This is all with the latest TWRP installed (also tried custom builds), cleaned properly my device and was using the linked Oreo GAPPS. I usually flash in one instance 1) ROM, 2) GAPPS and 3) Magisk.
The only time I had a working Oreo ROM was after several tries with PixelExperience where on my last try I booted into safe mode and it somehow worked after that.
