Nexus 7 2012 can't install GApps

Hi, i have on my N7-2012 TWRP 3.0.2.
I did Advanced Wipe for all partitions, and Format Data. I changed /data and /cache to f2fs and flashed a Nougat ROM from this form (DirtyUnicorn) I had no troubles.
I wiped system again (to avoid space problems during the flash of Gapps) and tried to flash GApps 'open_gapps_arm7.0-micro-20161018.zip', but i got this error:
*** Incompatible Android ROM detected ***
This GApp pkg is for Android 7.0.x ONLY
Please download the correct version for
your ROM: 5.1.1 (SDK 22)
*** GApps intallation failed ***
- Copying log to /usb-otg/Nexus 7 Asus
- NO changes were made to your device
Install will now exit...
Error code: 20
- Unmounting
I tried with other nougat ROM such as Carbon but i got the same error. The weirdness is that i tried also with a MM rom, and tried to flash GApps for MM... again, same error! He ask for a 5.1.1 GApps! So strange.
So, only for my curiosity, i reflashed DU ROm, downloaded and flashed GApps for 5.1.1. First time, i got the error:
*** Incompatible Android ROM detected ***
This GApp pkg is for Android 5.1.1 ONLY
Please download the correct version for
your ROM: 7.0.0 (SDK 22)
*** GApps intallation failed ***
i tried again and flash worked, i rebooted the device and..... bootloop... obviously.
Can you help me?
UPDATE: i forget to say that i tried also with: nano and pico gapps, and Banks Gapps. Same problem. if i reboot the device without gapps the rom work but if i download apk play store and install it doesn't work when i open it.

pls, noone can help me? :crying:

Are you wiping "system" after installing the ROM? If so, you are effectively removing the ROM you just installed which leaves the GAPPS script nothing to detect to install. The proper install would be: Flash ROM and the Flash Gapps (usually pico or nano to save space) and then reboot, no wiping in between.

I had this issue no matter what rom I tried after flashing an android 7.0 rom. I just did a factory reset by flashing back to a factory image now everything seems fine and google apps are working again.
I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1907796 but used kit kat 4.4.4 image and didn't lock the boot loader. Then flash the recovery of your choice again and your good to go.

Yes i wiped /system cause after the flash of the ROM when i try to install GApps i get error "not enough space". I followed the tips of a xda GUIDE wiping /system
@dinotyped: Are you telling me that there's no way to have Nougat on my N7? :crying::crying:

@qwerweteryu You should be able to use Nougat roms ok. I've not tried again. I'll likely stick to marshmallow for the time being just because of personal preference.

Stick with "Pico" (or possibly) "Nano" Gapps to make sure you have enough space after flashing the ROM. You can always go back after booting / setting up and install the other Google Apps that you want.

Unable to install custom rom in lenovo k6 power

Hello friends I am trying to install Custom rom in my Lenovo K6 power phone but due to some error it can not be installed. I request you to help me as soon as possible and tell me the reason for this error and if possible then suggest the correct rom for this phone.

I think you have not flashed 64bit version of twrp. Flash the correct twrp and the issue will be fixed.

Please provide me right trwp download link as well as way to install. Currently no os installed on my phone.

Download and install TWRP below, it's the 64bit version and you can install via TWRP. In the menu of installing ROMs in TWRP choose the option to install .img, choose TWRP and install, then choose the ROM you want and install. Remember that you must erase everything and format the data.

Yeah

Flash 64 bit twrp . And don't forget to reboot into twrp again after flashing 64 bit twrp .

This problem is because of your 32 bit twrp.
Try installing 64bit twrp recovery . Then u wil b able to flash rom. Please note that twrp 3.1.0 is 32 bit and twrp 3.1.1 is 64 bit.

Please tell me marshmallow rom

I think its a very common mistake everybody does.
before installing any custom ROM make sure that u wipe Dalvik cache and cache of the device then flash the rom and gaps also.
And another major issue with the custom ROM requirements like that ROM support in one minimum version of TWRP recovery
if u install that ROM bellows the version of requirements the ROM will not install properly.

Download twrp updater from playstore, download 3.2.1.0 the latest as 3.1.1.1 will not mount your storage use twrp updater to flash official TWRP that i mentioned above
Then if you are on stock rom then take backup in some external drive and place रोम and gapps too,
Then do format data in wiping section, do it thrice and then wipe delvik, cache, data, system and internal storage too now mount external dtive(either OTG or SD card) and flash rom followed by gapps 7.1 pico
As I writing my experience as I am currently on RR ROM

Error on installing custom rom
Error 7 will be displayed while installing custom roms

i dnt understand to install twrp .icant decript data on the file please help

2. Flash AEX zip
3. Flash TWRP installer
4. Reboot to TWRP
5. Flash gapps
6. Flash magisk (optional)
7. Wipe dalvik cache
8. Reboot to system and enjoy
from telegram channel
But, what's your actual version of AEX ?

Sorry to but in...
I have a Mi9 with AOSP...

If there is an update do I follow the instructions 21vm gave? And will I lose my apps and settings?

[appeal][p]z3 dual D6633 patch for running z3 roms

hi guys
i need a patch for z3 dual that would be able to run z3 single-sim roms on z3 dual in android 9 pie
can any develpoer make it for me?please
thanks

please
somebody help meeeeeee

I found some patch on old oreo Z3 thread.
Also, I read the LOS 15 thread today. You need a specific TWRP for D6633. But I can't find this file.
This patch only tested on oreo ROMs so I don't know if it will work on pie.
Anyway, there you go.
You'll need a clean flash. The steps are:
- Flash TWRP 3.3.1 (if you want to install LOS 16.0, flash the boot.img from the .zip)
- reboot to TWRP, wipe everything (system, cache, dalvik, data, internal storage. BUT if you store the ROM and gapps file on internal storage, DO NOT wipe internal storage)
- flash ROM, Gapps, reboot to TWRP
- flash this dualsim patch, reboot to system
Good luck.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that.
The TWRP 3.3.1 from the link is only work on LOS 16.0. If you flash another ROM with TWRP 3.3.1, the TWRP will break.
In other word, you must flash the correct TWRP for the ROM. Also, in the past, there is a specific TWRP for Z3 dual but the link is dead.
