You already asked this question two times in two different threads and I answered you to both...
Yes, you can flash Gapps on stock rom even if they are already installed.

You don't need a PC to flash GAPPs. There is an app on the play store that will do it for you.
Called " open GAPPs." Just look for it on the play store and it will do it for you

No problem with flashing.. I'll try to solve it later..
One more problem has arrived.. I had previously rooted my device and it was working fine.. I cleared data and blabla caches.. then tried to flash SuperSU 2.78. it caused bootloop..
Then again cleared data. Fortunately it booted..
Can you tell me how to root it.

Thank you Simm22 and everybody at XDA ! Salute :good:
Have a bad problem with S-Health, I rooted using Towel root, then installed Xposed, S-health crashed, so i removed xposed and s-health persisted to crash, so i then performed a factory reset, and s-health continued to crash.
The only way it'll work is if it's not updated, I personally don't want root no more i just want it to work.
Stock rom 4.4.2
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you remove the framework for xposed first? Anyways since you wiped the data partition, you may as well flash your ROM back and start from scratch. S health works when rooted with towel root but xposed still bugs it.

Crap no I didn't, I have wiped from the recovery though wouldn't that eliminate it ? I've now updated, was trying to avoid losing warranty. But now it never works. Phone isn't rooted no more and I'm not able to root with towel root either.
I'm guessing I'd have to flash a prior ROM via Odin and then re root, install xposed and then remove the framework if it's still somehow there.
Any ideas ? Thanks

Not sure larr, i dont care myself best ask about before you jump in
Try this...
1. Uninstall Xposed framework if not already.
2. Go in /system and open build.prop in a text editor
3. go to the line ( “ro.securestorage.support=true” ) and change it to false
4. Install the xposed framework
5. Clear the app data for S-Health and HealthService
6. Reboot
solution..

My Galaxy app's application hasn't been deactivated m8, it's always been on, the second i turn on S-Health it crashes, it's because my system says custom when in download mode i believe, problem is i've now updated my OS so i'd need to reflash a stock rom via odin and then re-root if i wanted to have access to the location that the user before you mentioned. Been away from home for a few days so not had the chance, might do it tomorrow.
Thanks for the suggestion, but if I turn on S-Health now i know it'll begin crashing again.

Cheers fella, an I moved to London about 7 years ago, met a girl in London, was in Liverpool last saturday for my Stag night, dressed up like a bee gee with an afro and silver stacks, had a boss night m8, well until i fell on some stairs an near ripped my leg out of my hip joint, just spent 4 hours in the hospital getting X-rays. Worth it though
An yea Liverpool is a gorgeous City, night life is amazing we smashed it the other night
When I turn my phone on it goes into boot loop. I tried accessing TWRP but it's not good either, it would just show the startup screen and nothing will happen. I don't know how this happened because my phone was working perfectly last night before I slept. I didn't charge my phone so when I woke up the battery was drained. So I plugged in my charger and turn it on, it'll just go into boot loop just like what I said earlier. Please help. I have read that I should flash stock through Odin, but where can I find it? Please help. Thanks!

Thanks, I actually know that I have to go to that site to download the firmware, I just needed some confirmation haha! But this here is my real (stupid-ish) question, is it possible to recover/access my data? Will it be lost after flashing?
When my device was bricked a bit times... I flashed the firmware and all my data wasn't lost it just changed the system and did not delete any data... But make sure u only flash the firmware version that was present before u bricked your device....
MOST of the times it doesn't delete any data☺

Well you have to watch videos on YouTube to prevent brick your phone!
For twrp installing:use the latest version of twrp and don't forget that untick auto restart at odin
When it passed on odin unplug your phone from pc anf get out your battery and after 5sec put it in.and try to go to twrp by volume up+home+power
Good luck

The problem occurred after unlocking. And the toast notification showed, "Unable to open camera, camera is being used by another application". (Sorry I couldn't grab an screenshot. I thought it was hardware side problem but I checked it. Even if was the rare camera issue then the front camera should work. The flashlight isn't working too,)
I forgot to backup the stock ROM and lost it on ROM installation but after installing ROMs, same issue. I tried 3 ROMs, A8 Port, LineageOS 16 and currently on EvoX.
Tried different camera apps , tried WhatsApp camera also, no luck..
Even CPU-Z isn't recognising the Camera.
The device model is J53gxx.
I flashed TWRP exactly as you said.

My advice would be flash stock ROM through Odin and start all over again.
Boot stock rom and make sure camera and flashlight works, then enable oem unlocking and USB debugging and install twrp and a new rom.
If that doesn't solve the issue then it may be hardware related.
Also you could get a log of trying to open camera app and post it here.
