I just installed latest Paranoid Android on my Moto E but it doesn't have any google apps not even play store.
I am trying to install Play Store manually but it tells can't open file. So, plz tell me how to install it or how to install any app in this ROM.
Ummm. Just like EVERY other ROM, you have to flash gapps. We can't include gapps in the ROM (legally, nobody can)
So, there is no way to install gapps ?

Really?
You couldn't just Google, 'gapps'? And find that there are links to gapps packages to install?
Or read a development forum on this website and see exactly how to do it?
Or watch a video?
Anything?
Of course you can install gapps....
I tried and installed successfully but Apps getting in not responding mode.
Sounds like you flashed a version of gapps not meant for your version of Android.
yeah....that could have happened....
Hi,
Can this device run the google translate app? i've upgraded it to v4.4 CM with Micro Gapps and it doesn't allow to download google translate so i spoofed another device and downloaded anyway only to have the app crash on startup. Any idea if this is possible? this is the first time i've seen such a thing.
Anyone?

Yes, it's working on latest CM 11 build. Here is the latest version downloaded today from Google Play - Google Translate 5.1.0RC04.124179590.apk
It works without Google Apps, which you can uninstall using Google Apps Remover

I have installed cm-11-20160608-NIGHTLY-mb52x, the newer versions have no modification as far as I know (CM11 Android 4.4 Nightlies Changelog).
I don't usually have gapps installed because they make the phone very slow. Last time I installed Open GApps pico, installed the apps I need from Google play, then used Google Apps Remover to delete them and make the phone usable again
So i flashed this rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/orig-development/beta-cyanogenmod-12-1-tank0412-t3285392 also flashed Gapps but for some reason google play didint instal... i instaled apk manualy (only store)it crashes when i try to download something

Ah , I see the ROM you used .
Use lineage os or cm 13 by xanwar no gapps problem in them . personally tested .steps for flashing them .
Code:
flash the latest twrp by xanwar for avoiding errors .
Download the ROM and other addons
Put them into sdcard
Boot to twrp
Wipe everything
Reboot to twrp
Flash ROM and addons
Reboot system

Hi Everyone,
Here I'd like to Introduce you with my custom Gapps package that I use on day to day basis when I flash a new Rom. As I've observed many people struggling with finding the correct version of gapps to flash, I decided to build a package of my own which lets you flash stable google apps with a lot of variants so you can decide for yourself which package suits you.
What is NikGapps?
NikGapps project started with the goal to provide custom gapps packages that suits everyone's needs. A package that a user needs but cannot find and ends up setting up the device installing more apps and removing unwanted apps manually.
NikGapps is a gapps package built from my own device. As my device is always updated with latest version of Google Apps, every time I build a new package, I am on latest and stable version of Google Apps
NikGapps also comes with Android Go package for low end devices.
NikGapps is a bit different than other Gapps packages (written from scratch, it isn't a port of OpenGapps). It focuses on providing apps that most of the people uses but can't find it in other Gapps packages and ends up installing the apps manually
NikGapps supports split-apks
NikGapps also comes with nikgapps.config and debloater.config which allows you to control your installation and debloat unnecessary stuff from your Rom respectively.
NikGapps is built on a different architecture, the installation method is completely different (Every Package comes with installer.sh that installs itself). Also, it installs the gapps to /product partition instead of /system partition
NikGapps also allows you to configure the installation, it can be installed to any partition (be it /system or /product or any other partition which may get added in future)
NikGapps also allows you to keep the aosp counterpart of google app if you want (just by using nikgapps.config you can choose whether to remove the aosp counterpart or remove it)
NikGapps allows you to dirty flash it anytime you want, it also supports installing on top of Roms with Gapps (except for the pixel flavored Roms)
NikGapps also comes with addon packages (useful ones) so that users don't have to flash the whole gapps package just to have the app installed.
NikGapps supports the Privileged Permission Whitelisting, providing the necessary permissions to the privileged apps.
It supports addon.d so you need not flash the package again and again after every nightly flash
NikGapps addon.d functionality is built from scratch which allows you to completely control which app you want to backup/restore on dirty flash.
It also allows optimizing Google Play Services (when you turn off Find My Device) so that you can sleep with peace without having to worry about Google play services eating your battery. (Requires support from Rom too in order to work)
Also, since these are custom build, I can include as many packages as I want (which I do, you can pm me if you want that package)
NikGapps comes with following packages
» Core
» Basic
» Omni
» Stock
» Full
» Go (for low end devices)
Although these packages cover a large user base, there are few users who like things differently that is where NikGapps Addons Comes into picture. These Addon packages are separate and meant to flash over NikGapps original packages.

Hey can we have a package which will replace the default ROMs aosp apps like Google calendar, Google clock, Google dailer, Google contact, google message, google calculator, google gboard, youtube vanced, pixel launcher and wallpaper, Latest Gcam with all the goodies like playground ar sticker included if you cant provide it in a single zip then provide gcam all in one zip separately. Rest all other apps can be downloaded but these apps are needed as default apps in the ROM.

I'll create one tomorrow. I'll exclude pixel launcher as we can install it separately and there are ported versions available which are preferred over stock.
As for ar sticker in Google camera, I'll create a separate addon zip as the file size will increase tremendously and not everyone wants to install it.

Well for me its more comfortable using your mod in comparison with opengapps just because acelerate the setup of the phone, it has all that i need too, the only problem that i see is that a person who need more apps isn't the best, in that way probaly its better opengapps, anyway, the thing that contain youtube vanced is the best for me, so i really appreaciate your mod of gapps, thanks

Also please see if we can have basic Google addons like Digital Wellbeing, Google TTS, ARCore, Backup and Restore libs. . ?
The idea for the project is great, but to satisfy the configuration of everyone is kinda imposible. With opengapps we can customize each part that we want and I think the ultimate goal for this one could be like that, creating a "master package" with a small config file to just install the components we need (or just delete them from the zip file, with instructions of course)
This is a great idea, for starters can you post which all apps are included in the uploaded zip?

You're right, I used to create aroma gapps when I had Mido with me, unfortunately poco doesn't support aroma installer, that makes it difficult to serve everyone.
May be I will implement a way in which I will ask user to provide an input while installing a particular Google app through NikGapps (vol + button for 'yes' and vol - button for 'no'). Will have to check its feasibility. till then, I will provide 2 packages, one which is shared in OP and the other one with all the Google apps replacing stock aosp apps.

I personally create a package which includes latest magisk, the kernel I prefer to flash, Google Sans fonts, some cool ringtones, notification tones, my favorite browser, mixplorer, SwiftKey, telegram, adaway, fk app, etc. In one zip. It pretty much covers all the basic apps. Let me know if anyone is interested in such kind of zip.

It's certainly possible. The package I use personally has all these apps in it. Not everyone uses all the Google apps hence I included the bare minimum ones and the essential ones specific to our device.

Yes, if choices is an option then it would be much cooler.
Also, do you have any experience with microg? Since if it's possible to to a package like this but with microg for people who wants to use the Google apps without the excessive battery & data hog nature of google play service, then it would be even better

I do have experience with microg but like I said earlier, I build the package from my device and I don't use microg as of now (last I used, it was unstable, couldn't use apps dependent on google libs like uber, not sure about it's current status) and building a package without having microg installed is not possible for me. However, I'm inclined to take requests/suggestions with regards to current package that I am providing.

If you guys wanna try this rom, open gapps mini package works fine. I don't use Google pay, but play store, sync works good.
Sent from my OnePlus5T using XDA Labs
Language only english and china?
Installed it, nice!
I did it the not official way, installed the zip via local update.
Some apps not working, most of them do though.
Should I install gapps mini as recommended?
And uninstall play store? The official play store works fine.
What is the official way to install it? Via recovery I guess?
I will try that.
Thanks for the ROM!

No, no play store, I went to recovery after my dirty upgrade, it was all in Chinese, I clicked on something, I guess it was wipe and clear cache, every thing was gone, continued and had a clean install.
Deleted all the Chinese apps.
Downloaded play store apk, and now busy installing my apps.

This is H2OS which is China's version of OOS. It does not have gapps because Google isn't allowed in China. You'll have to sideload google services or as the other user said opengapps mini works.
