Reinstall Gaaps after each ROM update ?

I used to update ROMs on my Motorola Defy, but I never had to reinstall Gaaps.
When you update PA, you have to reinstall Gaaps (if I have understand well), is it the same for ofther Nexus 4 ROMs ?
I'm really confused, thanks
PS: Do you still have to update ROMs using recovery (flash .zip) ? Or is there apps which do that ? I heard CyanogenMod have now an OTA update function, is it the same for PA ?

on most roms you do have to reflash the gapps after flashing the rom, unless the rom includes a script that saves them. but, it takes a few seconds to reflash the gapps anyways.

Thanks, Do you have an idea why it's not included in PA ?

most dont include it, since its just a matter of a few extra seconds of flashing.

You could make your own script to save them if you wanted. It's not difficult. However, I think occasionally the PA devs modify the gapps with their own changes so that is why they don't setup a script to save them since you would need the new custom versions.

btw, you're better off flashing in recovery. apps that flash occasionally mess up. goo manager can be used to download and flash roms/gapps/kernels.

Ok thanks guys !

Hi,
It's like on all custom roms (CM, AOSP, AOKP). If I remember right Google requested that the Gapps should not be included in the roms. It was at the time of my Gnex if I'm not wrong.
At a moment LiquidSmooth rom included the Gapps and they remove them due to Google policy.
Maybe a dev can reply... Need to confirm but there was an history about the request from Google to not include the Gapps but as a separate package.

As the guys above said, it's mostly a license issue. You cannot include Gapps in a product you launch as your own because unlike other apps like Messaging and Camera, Gapps are not exactly a part of AOSP; they are made by Google. The thing is, developers like the one for your Motorola Defy get away with adding gapps in their ROMs because they are unofficial builds of CM and Google cannot keep a check on all the ROMs out there. The same way the case for my Samsung Galaxy Ace.
For official builds, however, you always require Gapps package to be flashed separately because Google has an eye on the official ones.

Paranoid Installer Like CyanogenMod

Yesterday i saw CyanogenMod Installer app for android...
It is quite helpful for those who are flashing roms first time on their device after rooting...
This app also tells them whether a Cyanogen rom is available for their device or not...
I m currently working on paranoid if this feature is added to PA source itself then it will cause pain for other roms...
This will be a arsenal for paranoidsss...
Have a look at CM installer
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.cyanogenmod.oneclick
I m not promoting CM but giving u all idea atleast...

It won't cause pain for other roms. People are not exactly lined up waiting for an installer for PA before they can flash it. Not to mention CM devs are quite open to using roms other than CM after using their installer. Its about more than just flashing your favorite rom. its about having a choice other than what your carrier forces you into. And since devs often borrow features from other ROMs, this would hardly be pain for other roms. As tools make developement easier, i think we will see more roms or at least modified roms that have peoples own touch added to them.

Installer will be great for newbies...

if a rom offers an installer app then it will attract new users who havent flashed custom roms yet...this what i meant..

Custom ROM Installer
I think that an Automatic Installer for the first flashers would be indeed "comforting" Because I've started to flash custom roms recently and my first one was a pain, not because of the steps....The steps for installing the recovery tool and all are pretty easy and all. But we have the feeling we are going to brick the device at the first flash! hehe Maybe an automatic installer that detects your device model would be kinda safe for unexperienced users...
But nowadays I find it nice to manually flash roms, keep backups, etc...
Oh well...not a bad idea at all in my opinion ;}

That CM Installer is stupid. I used and thought when it said, it will delete your things. I processed that as the normal factory reset in TWRP for a clean flash. Apparently it was a full freaking wipe. Lost everything. I think that process they used it unnessesary.

I don't understand why they needed to wipe the SD card, but you should have read the instructions and backed up your data before installing...

Just as an FYI, the still-in-progress Omni installer is going to be designed such that it can be used by any project. (And cooperation with other projects for inputs is welcome!)
I'm not working on it myself, it's xplodwild's baby - but as an example, there's serious consideration of hooking it into XDA's devdb, although I think it'll require some dependencies metadata to be added to devdb for it to work. (e.g. automagically handle gapps).

FYI, don't go thanking CM just yet....that source they shared is just for the app which all it does is enable USB debugging hahaha
Is not the source for the installer which I believe is a msi or exe

The best rom/kernel for the batery life ?

Yo i search the best rom and kernel for the G model

Not really sure man. I think its up to you to test them out and see which one gives you the best battery performance for your needs.

Can you confirm that this is working? I've been wanting to use a black substratum theme for ages, but until now I didn't dare to, since substratum doesn't officially support LineageOS as far as I know. On top of that I read a couple of comments of people having issues

You're right, but I meant LineageOS as in an LOS-based ROM more than LOS itself. Most custom ROMs run better than LOS and have a bunch of features.
You may know that Substratum uses "OMS" to do the overlay stuff, so if you want a ROM with full substratum compatibility, it's as easy as finding one with the necessary commits, like NucleaROM or RR (I prefer NucleaROM over all of the other LOS-based ROMs to be honest). Just look at the description of the ROM for 'oms support'. Or you can try, I'm sure that I used Substratum on LineageOS stock for some time and I was getting 7 hrs SOT with heavy usage

Alright, so thats how it is. But you say you had it running on LOS? Did you experience issues, or why don't you have it running anymore? To be honest I would currently prefer not flashing a new rom, since I'm kinda dependent on my phone working right now and at the moment, it works mostly fine would still love to use a totally black substratum theme though

You have LOS on your phone though, right? If so, why don't you try? It's not like you have to flash anything so you can't brick your phone...
I think I used it on LOS yeah. But I prefer stock over custom ROMs by far. And now that the MiFavor 5 ROM is out (with the Android 7 QS tiles) I don't have any reason to use the buggy and laggy custom ROMs
I swear LOS was the worst of them all when I used it back in Feb/March. The worst thing was that a bunch of apps simply didn't feel like working...

Yes I do. Personally I don't feel like it's that bad so you think it's save to try it out?
Hmm so you feel like stock is better right now? I switched to LOS because I was kinda mad at the stock rom (at least the German one) since updates weren't coming at promised times and when they did come they were full of bugs like apps not working and more.... Which was mostly fixed afterwards, but I wasn't that happy with the situation. I also didn't like the look and feel, which now wouldn't be as much of a problem, since I'm using Nova + KLWP to change most of the visuals. Is the "Tiles-App" with more QS tiles working with stock now? It didn't when I went to LOS. How's battery life? What are your main reason to go back to stock?
And least but not last.... How would I get back to stock? Just flashing a zip from the ZTE website?
And another weird thing which didn't bother me too much until now: I bought my phone in Germany so I had the G model. Ever since going to LineageOS, which included unlocking the boot loader etc. My phone tells me /shows up as the U model.... Is that bad in any way? Other than that it seems to work alright though

-I like stock because it runs better, and even though I thought I would hate ZTE's UI, I actually like it after using it for a long time. And the 5.0 UI is awesome, nuff said. They use blur on the volume pop-up and when you pull down the status bar.
MiFavor 5.0 is not official, it's just the A2017 ROM that's been ported by the Russians. You need to install a special A2017 bootstack (it seemed really dangerous but it's not that bad really) and then the system zip, which formats /system anyways. After that you have to format /data (which will format the internal storage too, just saying) because of the encryption, and it should boot just fine.
I have an A2017G too and flipped out when they f00ked up with B02 with Google Play Store, then B03 with exfat, and went to LOS. Then i tried to go back and DFU-bricked my phone. After I fixed it I preferred to stay stock, and in B04 they fixed everything there was to fix. Tried NucleaROM, best so far but it still has that WIP feel...
Anyways, make a backup of your current system on an SD card if you want to go 5.0.
The A2017U thing is normal, it's because the universal bootloader is actually the U bootloader without the NON-HLOS.bin which you flash later via the A2017G-MODEM.zip (which is ancient lol)

Thank you again for your aid! I have another question....
I downloaded substratum now and installed some themes but somehow I can't get them to work...
For example "Flux" tells me everything went good and I need to restart, but nothing changes after the reboot...
Swift Black has some errors compiling :/
Any ideas?

The best would be wiping everything, but you can try wiping system only. after that if the phone doesn't work well just wipe data

It seems to be that all the ROMs have bugs or are laggy. Stock is best right now if my research is correct.

Stock...
Edit* with a few things added and removed...

So I am running Nuclear Ron now, everything went smoothly and I've got Magisk installed correctly for root access. So far when I'm using the rom I love everything and substratum works well as well.....
But.... Whenever I turn of the screen it almost immediately reboots... when using my phone I don't get any random reboots, but when the screen is off it restarts every time. This is a real bummer and I keep my phone off most of the time right now, to prevent the reboots every minute :/
Any ideas what the reason for this issue could be? Would love to stay with this rom, but only if I can get this fixed!
I Uninstalled substratum and the substratum themes by the way, but that didn't help either...
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!

I get phenomenal battery life and speed on NucleaROM. Stability is so-so, however.

Rom sugestions?

Hi guys!
Is already have my OP5 since a month and using FreedomOS with Franco Kernel since the 2nd day I got it in my hand.
I am pretty happy in everything it brongs me both things, but I want to ask to people who has another custom ROM (xXx NoLimits, Resurrection Remix, ExperienceOS, etc) / Kernel on its device (I do not know a lot of kernels but I saw Franco and people (and his developer) told me some features and they hat reason is very smooth good and customizable with its own app.
So which Rom do you have? Magisk or SuperSu? Which Kernel is the best for you? :victory:
I want to get your personal opinion and your experience, I hope more people have the questions I did it and here we can help us each other with our opinion about using X rom X kernel and some more features that I can not put it here because I do not know if there are more things (my last Z5 I used mods and tweaks to make better performance but if you have a kernel like France you do not need this).
Thank you very much for your help :fingers-crossed:

I'm using xXx no limits and use the AKT (advanced kernel tweaks or so?) mod.
I don't know about the kernels but the ROM itself is my favorite.
It has an aroma installer (you pick which features you want before installing them) with many options.
You won't need to download gapps, magisk/ supersu and some stuff like xposed separately. It's very convenient.
Everything is smooth.
The stereo mod (using the earpiece as a speaker for music and videos) is something which is weird as it's used for something it wasn't meant to be used but still a very nice addition.
It's basically a faster stock OOS (oxygen OS) in a bundle with some root functionality added.
This shall be it for now. I hope that I could help you. Fell free to ask if you have any questions

I am using pure stock since I got this phone on the 4th of September and I have to say since then I stopped being a flasholic.

PureFusion because I've had the Nexus 6P and Pixel XL before this phone and ran PureNexus on those, and PureFusion is based on that. It's the only ROM that I feel provides just the right amount of features for me (not too much and not too less).
I'm using the stock kernel now because using custom kernels would introduce issues.
I did have the phone randomly reboot on Me 2 times so far but I can't say for sure that it's the ROM that is causing it.
Overall it's my favourite one out of the handful I have tried and I would definitely recommend it!!

Gonna go with stock as well. Stock kernel or Franco. Gotta say, better speed and battery than the other stuff out there. You gotta figure a whole company can do much better in software development than 1 guy or a team of 5 or 6 people.

Pure Fusion here too because its given me an extremely better battery life from the normal 3 hours SOT, i now get roughly 6 . Stock Kernel with the rom because it's just good for me all in all, maybe will try Franco sometime down the road because, i've been along time supporter. Magisk just because I don't need much except YouTube without ads, also can use Snapchat and other apps flawlessly! Good Luck!

I watched too Pure Fusion OS, but I need to know if I can install it jsut the Rom of do I need too one of the gapps that are they in the original post the gapps, bu I need to know how to install it?
Do I just make a clean install or i do a clean install and I install one of the gapps?
I must ask too, if I have unlocked the bootloeader, does that mean I have my mobile encrypted? Can I install Pure Fusion OS without problem?

What I normally do is wipe everything but internal memory, install room along with gapps I use open and it boots up! And you're all good to go !

It doesn't really matter. You can download open gapps or one for the others (forgot the names. Hehe).
You'll have to flash the ROM first and then the gapps file in the recovery. That's it.
But beware. Playing with your phones software doesn't come without risks. Read a lot about what you have to do and preferably try it on a phone to practice before doing it on your normal phone.
It can break your phone and I don't think that you can/ want to buy a new one. I had bricked my first phone a week after getting into root and custom ROMs.
The problems after that have driven me crazy but I was going to buy a new phone anyway.
LPT: If you want to flash something, wait for stable releases as long as you're inexperienced. Wait till others have tried that and then flash it. That way, you'll avoid some of the problems that you would struggle for a long time to fix.
And don't forget this. Keep an eye on the forums to see what problems people are reporting of and how to solve or avoid them in the first place.
Hope I could help

Arm 64/ 7.1 / And then you can choose which you like i don't need everything from Google so i'm sure what to select and as the previous post it has a stable and beta build PERSONALLY i'm using the beta and no problems at all! Any other questions feel free to ask!

This is an age old question..
You need to ask yourself not us.
What is your favourite car ? Mines a McLaren or a nismo, or a s2000 or robocops car.
You may disagree..
So what do you like, flash a bunch and see for yourself..
Bare in mind these threads usually get closed.

I'm using pure fusion and love it.

Our Device doesn't work with Android keystore?

I tried running the "bitwarden" app without success on omnirom, AICP and paranoid. I was able to get it to work once on AICP but then never able to recreate the scenario or know what was different. When I provided logcats to the developers they came back asking why our device doesn't work with the android keystore. Specifically:
01-23 23:01:06.816 11841 11841 E AndroidRuntime: android.runtime.JavaProxyThrowable: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.InvalidOperationException: The configuration is invalid. Creating the instance for type ISecureStorageService failed. Key not yet valid ---> SimpleInjector.ActivationException: Key not yet valid ---> Java.Security.InvalidKeyException: Key not yet valid
Namely
Java.Security.InvalidKeyException: Key not yet valid
This is the error. For some reason that device doesn't work with the Android Keystore. Any idea why?

I was going to say something about Chinese phones and not having good encryption due to the Chinese government's need to snoop on literally everything, but I don't think that's the case. Have you tried it on other ROMs, namely, stock/official LeEco ROMs? Or eUI? If bitwarden still doesn't work, you ought to contact a veteran dev like codeworkx.

In the bug report I opened at bitwarden a second user has reported the same issue with AICP 13.1. I personally tried AICP 12.1, Paranoid Android 7.3.1 and Omnirom 7.x. Oddly I did manage to get it working on AICP 12.1 one time but then was unable to identify what was different or recreate the situation. I did leave a PM for codeworkx identifying the issue since it appears to be a problem on both nougat and oreo. If it's an issue with any app that tries to use encryption in ANY form it could be a big problem. I don't see how that could be the case though since they have android pay working on some roms and it certainly uses encryption in it's processes (or at least I'd think it would).

I'll give it a try. For me and others the bitwarden app crashes immediately when you try to open it...you never get to actually use it for anything.
I'm currently on the "official" paranoid android 7.3.1 with it crashing like that so will try yours. Hopefully just a drop in replacement.

I just flashed your rom, open gapps 20180123 mini and finally magisk 15.3...booted up and had it start restoring apps from backup...installed bitwarden as one of my first apps and tried to open it...it promptly closed....so tell me what you are doing different please.

Magisk could be your problem or backups, maybe try without them first. I did nothing unusual really, just downloaded that app from play store and it works, but i don't have root.

Are you using open gapps as well? Are you using mini or another version? I'll try it without magisk and without any type of restore.

Im using opengapps stock but i dont think gapps is an issue, most likely root.

I tried your rom and open gapps..no magisk...no data....did the bare minimum to get to the desktop and installed bitwarden via playstore. It crashed the same as always.
Will download opengapps stock and give it a try.

@voron00
Tried the unofficial version of paranoid + opengapps stock...nothing else.......connected to my google account...installed bitwarden via play store...it crashes.
Until I can find a 2nd person that says it works for them I have to consider you the lucky one

@voron00
After alot of testing it looks like a clean install of AICP 12.1 is the ONLY rom I personally could use that will let bitwarden work. Titanium Backup can be used to restore user apps and the data for those apps but that's it. Thanks for the information that it was possible to get it to work although I'm still unsure how you got it working on Paranoid Android unless perhaps you restored data from AICP 12.1 that had whatever bitwarden is looking for. Here's hoping android pay works on AICP 12.1. The low volume in calls on AICP is very bad or I'm going deaf..will work on that next.

I got works on AOKP 7.2.1 everything works on this great ROM.

How is in call volume and speakerphone? So far the only ones that I found with good in call sound were pixel experience and omnirom.
