So I flashed AOKP and the Gapps package but when I started up my phone my Google apps aren't installed. Everything else seemed to work fine. Is there anything else I can try or do I have to wipe everything then reflash? What could have gone wrong?
I got the files from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2025939

I got them from the official thread, don't know why they'd be wrong. Do you have to reboot after flashing AOKP before Gapps? I guess ill probably end up just redoing it if there's no other ideas.

no. flash gapps after flashing rom.
Yeah you probably flashed gapps before the rom.
I tried it again and same thing. Play Store is there but no Chrome, maps, People, navigation etc. Is installing this package any different than just manually downloading the apps from the play store? I really don't know what's going on.
I would try re-downloading the gapps package.

If the play store is there, it flashed. You can download the rest.
Those apps were removed from the rom you flashed.

This, they really need to stop calling it a gapps pack when it is really just the play store with which you can then download gmail/chrome/maps/books/etc.
Ok, didn't realize those weren't supposed to be in there. Thanks guys

Gapps is really only useful for account setup, play store, and talk in my experience.

It is a gapps package. When they first gave the package a name, chrome, maps etc weren't on the android market. Eventually it became a a available on the market and to avoid confusion it wasn't renamed.
Those apps were removed because it was more convenient to manually get them from the store as when a new update is pushed. Gapps wouldn't have to be updated

I think the package manager will always pick the newest package provided two have the same signing. An update will normally not overwrite locally installed app updates, even if older. I think.
Locally installed apps are in /data/app. Flashing a gapps package puts apps in /system/app.
Like others have said there is no reason to include all the crap in the package that you can download yourself in the market. It has been this way for quite some time now.

Gapps only came out because google was pissy about CM including google apps in their releases, it was called gapps because it actually included google apps (maps/gmail/store/etc.) that weren't available on non google approved devices. Since now gapps just has the play store (at least from what I can tell) they should just call it gplay or something so people don't expect gapps on their freshly flashed devices.

Why are you giving me history when I already know this? You're just quoting me just to few quote me. Hence my signature says G1.
Renaming gapps to gplay makes no sense. They can call it whatever they like, it's just a name and their fault for not reading.

You threw chrome into the mix when discussing gapps creation, that is a pretty clear sign you don't know the history since chrome wasn't around at the time. Your broken english doesn't help either, "Hence my signature says G1".
It is not just the play store. It is all Google apps that are not available separately on the play store and stuff that is not open source. So when you build aosp it is not included.
It is very simple and was already explained.
You can pull your current play store.apk and toss it in your roms .zip /system/app prior to flashing it. Then don't flash the gapps package since oh its just the play store.

During the time of gapps creation, Chrome for Android didn't exist, so those apps were included in the original packaging of the gapps. So no, I didn't bring it into topic. I was saying that those google apps (such as Maps, Chrome [now its available], etc) weren't on the Android Market. So because they weren't on the Market, it had to be included in the gapps flashable zip, but now that they're included, it isnt necessary to include them in the zip as you can get them from the play store.
I don't care, I'm not writing a essay where I'm graded on my english. This is a forum, I shouldn't have to proof read what I said if I got the point across. Don't reply back to me just for the heck of it, oh man you insulted me over the internet over my grammar and english. Does that mean you're going to insult everybody else who's primary language isn't English? Most engineers aren't the greatest when it comes to english, so dont insult them either
Is there any way to install xposed on the shield? I know that the xposed installer page has instructions that supports up to android 5.1, but the shield tv has not been tested on it, nor does it appear that it would work. It shows that arm and x86 processors work with it. So i am kind of worried about trying it. Anyone tried this?
I don't see what about it wouldn't work. I had the romancer unofficial on my Shield with 1.3 firmware, and it worked fine. I'm now running the official latest on Full Android 1.8, and it also works fine. Just install the 64 bit arm version. Give it a shot. Not all modules work of course, but it wolked for me with a module that disabled the safe headphone volume check, so I can confirm that it works.
hi
your opinion is very informative .i think it will be very usefull for the acqusier.
Hi, I'm new to XDA and I entered because Xposed would like to install on my phone, but I have my doubts, I have a ZTE Blade L2 Plus, Am I Safe?

Thank yor for understanding, and sorry to the thread owner for having this thread derailed.
Hi there from germany and sorry for resurrecting the thread.
I've got my ShieldTV (16g) two days ago and I'm also interested if I can get xposed on the Shield TV (and didn't want to start a new thread). Currently I'am running the stock rom (rooted with the xda manual) and don't want to change to full android.
Is there any possibility to get it running? And which version would work? The main reason for me is to get away the ads on YouTube

Pretty sure the official (newer-ish) versions of xposed by rovo work on our shields, although i'd try to confirm that before trying as my minds a little hazy and i wouldnt want to be mistaken and be responsible for folks soft/hard bricking their shields..........im pretty sure i asked this question to zulu in his full android thread, and i think i remember him saying we could.......zulu's guide saying to use romracers version i believe was made before official support came along(which is why i asked the question)......but like i said, probably worth asking for confirmation by a user who has indeed flashed the official versions with no issues
Assuming my minds not playing tricks on me, and we can flash the officials, their, MIGHT, be better compatibility aswell

Is anyone else getting the message in the title of the post when they visit the app store to download fire emblem hero's? I'm on pure Nexus 7.1.1 from 12 16 2016
I'd really like to play and I see reviews from people with Nexus 6p's in the play store so I know it must work.

Well it says android 4.2 and up is supported in the description. And it looks like other people arent having this issue. If you feel like trying stock 7 or 7.1.1 that would be cool haha.

Just wanted to let you know I wiped my device and grabbed the latest Pure Nexus, Gapps and Vendor image. I can now download Fire Emblem from the app store
If your phone is rooted, you cannot install FEH... Unfortunately Play Store says: Your device is not compatible...
It's there a working Google Dailer APK? For the S10/S10+? If so, I'd appreciate the support!
Without root the only option currently would be to use a patched APK like the one available here. Not sure if it would work on the 10 but I don't see any obvious reason why it shouldn't..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-google-phone-v14-0-175904292-bubble-t3708218
There is another far better option and that would be to use this one for which works without patching but you get a prompt to say it's not compatible.
But everything works aside from that
