Stuck With Shield TV Got Lineage But No Gapps Work? - Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I have firstly upgraded the official firmware on a Shield Android TV 2015 (Foster) to version 11 Android TV OS then i decided I hate it so I flashed twrp worrked fine got Lineage 17.1 Android 10 on it now but I add Gapps from open Gapps versions ARM x64 nano or pico it doesn't matter which I add if you add any Gapps then it won't boot into the Lineage OS it just sits in a seemingly semi-brick state only ever providing the boot animation circles only it never passes although the system is working to pickup adb otherwise it would be a full brick.
Can someone help literally point out what I need to do to get it working with play store please.
My assumption is it requires a custom Gapps not regular Gapps as is the case with some os's sometimes but i cannot find links to try for anything other than stock Gapps.

Have you installed GApps before initial boot ?

Tab 4 LTE SM-T535 recognized as matissewifi

SOLVED: TWRP 3.0.3 uploaded by sub77 on androidfilehost doesn't properly recognize devices. I flashed the older 3.0.2-8 and it works fine and let me able to flash matisselte rom. Anyway, I flashed crdroid but It's stuck on boot animation.
Hello everybody,
I recently bought a secondhand Galaxy Tab 4 SM-T535. It has the android stock rom 5.2 and I wanted to flash a CM or any custom rom to speed it up a bit and remove all pre-installed apps. I did flash TWRP through Odin and it works fine, then I copied Gapps for 7.1 pico versión and crDroid custom rom based on LineageOS 14.1 and nougat 7.1 for matisselte aka Tab 4 SM-T535. I followed instructions (that are pretty the same for every custom rom) so I wiped dalvik, cache, system and data, then I flashed (tried to) crDroid 14.1 zip and... TWRP says something like: unable to flash zip, it is for device matisselte but this is matissewifi. Wtf?! So, ok. I thought I'm blind and I got the wrong version, I downloaded the matissewifi version, tried to flash again and it did flash. Then I flashed Gapps and rebooted, now it goes directly in download mode and says Could not boot normally... What is happening? I also tried CM 14.1 for matissewifi, it flashes but can't boot and I'm unable to flash the matisselte version. Why?
it is for sure the LTE tablet, I read it in settings and info in the android stock rom and it has a sim slot, so it can't be the wifi one.
Thank you in advance for any reply. Let me know if you need more informations. Thanks.
P. S. I already searched in the forum and didn't find any similar case.
Hi,
has anybody found a solution...?
seen too late.....

So glad you posted this because I had failed in all my attempts and had tried a few TWRP versions but not that one, which worked perfectly with Lineage 14.1.

Can't upgrade from Lineageos 15.1 to Lineageos 16 (microg)

Hey,
there are already three different Lineageos (microg) 16 builds. But after I am flashing one of them, my Xiaomi Mi A1 boots into complete darkness/ black screen. Any idea what are doing wrong?
Workflow:
boot twrp recovery.img
flash lineage 16 (microg) e.g. lineage-16.0-20190409-microG-tissot.zip
reboot system
-> black screen
When I reflash 15.1 (lineage-15.1-20190313-microG-tissot.zip) everything works as expected! Any idea?
Flash latest stock Pie and then 16 LOS.
Maybe the problem is the recovery. What recovery do you use?

Hello and good day! I'm planning to follow a similar upgrade path on a HTC M10 running Android 8.0 via Lineageos 15.1 install. Lineageos 15.1 installs with no errors in TWRP, device is rebooted, Lineageos logo crosses screen for several minutes, and device returns to TWRP recovery instead of starting phone. After the second re-install, I installed the OEM boot.img and same outcome. Any suggests how to proceed next?

You should post this in the HTC M10 section or the LOS 15.1 thread for your phone. The solution works here may not work for your phone.
Gudiance appreicated.
Guidance is appreciated and will do. Thanks. Danny.

Open Gapps 9.0 arm64 wrong architecture error

I am on a 6T and am trying to install LineageOS with Open Gapps Pico v9.0 arm64. But the Open Gapps will not install, giving an error that the arm64 Architecture is wrong. This is not correct, the arm64 is the correct architecture. I have checked with this:
Code:
adb shell getprop ro.product.cpu.abi
which shows this
Code:
arm64-v8a
Where can I get the correct one? I prefer the pico for the MINIMAL Google presence on my phone.
I have also tried MindTheGapps 9.0 arm64 but that complains the signature is not correct, and does not install
So ai can install LineageOS using the adb sideload <lineageOS.zip> method, but then not get Play Store to install a few apps.
I have also tried the rather long winded way in this post and have the same problem.
Can anyone give me a working method to Install LiknmeageOS 16 with Gapps Pico.
I have got Lineage to accept the open gapps by repeatedly installing it and TWRP and booting into recovery 3 times, leaving the Gapps until last before doing a proper boot.
However now I just get the logo, and no OS, then it returns to the TWRP recovery.
I am not new to this, this is the 5th device I have used for LineageOS, but never had this bother before.
Any ideas?

Razer Phone 2 booting AOSP Android 11 GSI

I've successfully booted and tested @phhusson's AOSP Android 11 GSI
Note: This is a 100% stock to AOSP Android 11 GSI 'guaranteed' to work guide. If you're having issues coming from different roms, kernels, etc. you can give this a shot. It's the only way to truly know what works in the GSI Rom vs. changes after the fact fixing issues inherent in the GSI Rom.
Most things are working!
So here's the things that are not working for me:
SIM Card/VoLTE (on Verizon... others may have more luck on different carriers)
Bluetooth (moving or deleting BluetoothResCommon.apk from /vendor/overlay fixes Bluetooth immediately for audio (couldn't test phone calls since they don't work for me)
Compass
Directions are located on the GSI Wiki: https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Razer-Phone-2
I simply flashed the image vndklite IMG through twrp.
Rebooted, All was working.
Booted back into twrp, resized system partition, flashed nikgapps core.
Everything on my end working flawless, except magisk.
Seems magisk according to phh isn't compatible yet.
Every variation and/or version of magisk results in bootloop, And I require magisk. Besides that everything works great.
I had no need to alter vendors I only flashed system image coming from working havoc android 10 gsi. So Bluetooth is working on my end

Good to know! I'll update my post to explain that this is a 100% stock to Android 11 GSI Rom guide that is 'guaranteed' to work, as I've seen many posts where folks have had issues with the Razer Phone 2 and GSI Roms in general.

Opengapps install fail A5 2016 a510f - 17.1 and 18.1

Guys. Not first time I install lineage and open gaps. Some time ago I already had lineage after original ROM on my A510f.
I wanted to update Lineage becouse something happens with system. I used TWRP, andsame system installed great but later have a problem with all opengapps (arm) instalation. Maybe not instalation because all goes OK, but after rebooting phone can not start and trying to ask for account. Nothing works. All version of OG checked on 17.1 and 18.1 and different TWRP. Have no idea what I make wrong or what happens, but still this same problem. I wiped all what was possible in TWRP and OG installed from SD. System ok, OG - not. Help.
