I have rooted mojo with the stock firm ware. I am trying to install Kodi 17.0 "Krypton". But it always give me the error. I downloaded the apk and try to install through ES Explore. They give me error message package not compatible. Please some one help me.
Why are you on stock firmware anyway?
Version 17 requires android 5.0 minimum. Why do you want 17 anyway?
Yes, stock MOJO is on 4.2.2 isn't it? You'd need to flash your device to CM 12.1 at this point to get Krypton. But of course, that will change again further down the road with future releases no doubt.
Maybe consider a Raspberry Pi 3 for Kodi if the latest is important to you. Otherwise I think Android generally is a bit of a pain with OS updates, and this will be an issue at some point.

I have been using the MOJO for a year (rooted W/stock and REMIX SO) Kodi 17 is not supported on Android 4.2 which is the stock MOJO rom. I was able to install Kodi once the box was moded to CM12 (android 5.x) or Remix OS.
I would like to update my S4 to Lineage OS 14.1 and I have an older version of TWRP 2.8.4.0 recovery on my phone. What is the best way to upgrade to the newer ROM? Do I need to update TRWP recovery in order to install Lineage OS 14.1 or will it work with the older version? Its been a while since updating my phone could you someone point me in the right direction.
Update,
I've tried updating to a newer version of twrp via the app store and downloading the new update. For some reason when I browse from the file from twrp cannot find the img file. Any idea of why this is, I save files to specific directory where I can find them.
Thanks
I am in the same boat, however I am currently on cyanogenmod 13.
Where did you find v14.1 for jfltespr?
FYI I set it and forget it and try to update to the latest greatest yearly.
I am under the impression that there is no active maintainer for lineageOS however it appears to have forked.
so far I have found these options:
OCTos: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-sprint/orig-development/rom-team-octos-oct-n-t3537546
Vanir & Commotio: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-sprint/development/rom-vanir-commotio-05-30-2017-t3614632
I am torn, I want the latest (and acquire the security updates) but I know little to nothing of either of the two above;
plus I am very rusty in trying new ROMS.
would be interested to see what you come up with
I did come across this, but not sure about installing it. I'm on a older version twrp, didnt know if the latest version is required to install some of the newer roms.

If you use twrp recovery, how were you able to update it? It keeps failing for me.
i am not so sure that the link is for a jfltespr
seems to be for a different device jfltexx (the international version).... see http://www.lineageosrom.com/2016/12/list-of-devices-getting-official.html

Yea I know, I kind of figured that.
Some days ago the meizu m2 of my brother started having problems with the google apps not working any more (completely white screen in Play store and nothing working well). For this reason I decided to unlock its bootloader and install Lineage OS but after flashing Open Gapps I noticed that the google apps keep crashing all the time.
Looking around these forums I noticed that there are a lot of people with the same problem and for this reason I wanted to open this thread to collect all the discussions on the problem and to track any possible news about the problem itself and possible solutions if found.
I think that the cause of the problem may be Google discontinuing support to Gapps on phones not certified (I read some news on this topic some months ago).
I would like to know if someone has already found a solution for the problem to make the Phone usable again with the original Flyme OS or also a custom rom.
Thanks in advance.
[UPDATE] As a first solution for now I installed an old version of the gapps (You can find all the open gapps by date on the tags of the open gapps repository on github i.e: https://github.com/opengapps/arm64/tags?after=20180622) like suggested by someone on other threads. It seems to work for now because just after installation I deactivated the play store from the system settings so that google play services cannot be updated. I use yalp store (available on f-droid) to install apps from the play store
hello , i have a same problem,
this problem is with OpenGAPPS and MindTheGapps with 4 testing roms (Lineage, Viper, CrDroidAndroid, Resurrection_Remix),
in original Flyme OS is same problem.
I've tried Lineage 14, Resurrection Remix, Viper OS, Lineage 12, MIUI and everywhere Google Play Services crashes. As "whole m2 development is dead now" there is no hope that this will be solved.
At the end I installed AOSP 8.1 and it all working fine.:fingers-crossed:
Let me check it and find a solution for this. I will remind you guys what we can do to use it without issues if i found some. M2 is a secondary phone for me now. So let me try.
Updated first post with a possible solution
Uninstall the update (google & google play services), and turn off "auto update" on play store. Hopefully it can help.

Could you specify exactly which open gapps version you used (5.0-9.0?, nano/pico?)
And did you install open gapps on the Lineage OS you already had flashed on or onto stock ROM?

I installed OpenGapps Micro (of the 1st of August 2018) on Lineage OS
Solution:
1. Install 4.5.4I firmware
2. Root your device
3. Unlock bootloader
4. Install twrp 3.2.1
5. Flash AOSP 8.1 Rom
6. Flash arm64 8.1 micro gapps
Working all fine. Good luck.

Hey, I have a few questions regarding this.
Does FlymeOS 6.2.0.0G (or 6.3.0.0A for that matter) not work at all with open gapps?
Is there a point to install that instead of AOSP 8.1?
I still use FlymeOS stock 4.5.4l and I don't know why it would be more beneficial to use AOSP instead of a recent version of stock FlymeOS.
Does AOSP 8.1 have a lot of bugs?
I checked its forum page, it seems quite a lot of things are broken.
The ones that mostly concern me are the battery problems (though I have battery issues with the stock 4.5.4l FW currently as well), bad headphone sound quality, no navbar and sensor issues. Can you confirm that those are still present or has been fixed since?
hi
any solution yet i try to install google play service .apk and i get message tha telling me that i need to update it pls help me how to resolve google problem
Ok here is the only solution for google play services in flyme.
from security app go to data then network management and uncheck play service from wlan and cellular.....play service cant update now.....to run play store and play games and other google apps, follow the same process and check it.....then open your desired app very quickly and uncheck the play service again through recent screen.....dont leave it checked more than a minute or it will update automatically.....

Do you happen to have a mirror? It downloads extremely slowly. If not, I'll try downloading it now and will mirror it here when it's finished.
EDIT:
Nevermind, found a mirror on the flyme forums:

Hi, I am the one that posted the mega link but you will have to rename it as update.zip I had to change the name to make it more clear in my mega account sorry about that.
I have the Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930T which runs android 8.0 with the firmware G930TUVS8CRL1. I believe I have found the right root files and tools, and now I just need a custom rom. I really like to try Lineage, and I have downloaded version 14.1, but it says it is for Android v 7, and I like to try Lineage version 15.1. I found the Jenkins site for Lineage, but I do not see an option for searching. I need help either making sure that version 14.1 of Lineage works fine after I root the phone, or how do I get a custom rom that works with my handset's software please.
I am also open to other ROMs. Please give me suggestions.
Also, does anyone know which version of twrp I will need?
Last but not least, Lineage instructions asked me to check the CPU architecture on my phone with an app, but I could not find the icon for CPU. Instead the apps says I have a Qualcomm snapdragon Kryo, which Wikipedia says it is Arm64. I need this to download the right version of GAPPS.
I just realized I posted to the incorrect group, would someone please move this to the T-Mobile Q&A please? I have looked, and do not see an option for doing this.
Thanks
Hi guys, I have the amazing LuisRom on my device and it's great.
I would like however to migrate to the LuisRom Android 10 or even the Lineage OS for Android 10.
However, I am having an issue. Every time I try to flash the new ROM I got the following error message:
"this package requires firmware from android 10 based stock rom build"
How can I solve that? Would anyone mind to give me some tips, please?
Any help will be appreciated!
