Good Day!
I have just upgraded a Motorola G7 to LineageOS 20. I have installed MindTheGapps for LineageOS 20.
I am installing apks from apkpure. Certain apks install perfectly. Others do not.
Installed properly: Adobe Reader, ColorNote, SMS Backup & Restore
NOT installed: Firefox, Textra, Secure Camera
The NOT installed complain about unable to open file. I can get the exact message when I get to the phone after work.
Any ideas as to what I may have missed to cause certain apks to not install?
Thank You in Advance for any assistance!!!

are you sure you downloaded APK files or maybe XAPK files?

Hello everyone as we all know oppo has ended the color os support and started aosp rom which i found out on their forums as we have same specs ! tried to port it got booted but (unfortunately com. process.andriod error on setup wizard ) help would be appreciated ! p.s touch isnt working too ! current status just boots and gets stuck on setup wizard .
Mod Edit: link removed
You could try deleting setup wizard from recovery after you flash the ROM, before you flash gapps.. Just mount /system in twrp and navigate to that apk and delete it...
i tried the same but same issue ...will anyone plz look into this gapps are included in rom will make a separate patch for it
Thread moved to general, as that's where "shares" belong. But thread also closed as the site with rom violates the GPL, no kernel source posted.
Feel free to contact me if they post their kernel source, and I'll reopen the thread and restore the link.

Hey everyone,
I have been using a G900F with LineageOS 14.1 for approximately 9 months now without any troubles and was able to install APKs just fine.
But suddenly, when I want to install in APK and click on it, the phone does not show me an option to "install" anymore, only to "open with Texteditor or OpenStreetMaps". I have tried differen APKs, checked that I still allow installation from unknown sources, there is enough free space left on the phone.
I have no idea what the trouble could be and I cannot find an answer online, because all I can find is that people need to turn off their screen dimmers. But I don't even get to the point where I see the option to install the APK.
It would be great if you could help me, because I really don't want to wipe everything and install LineageOS again.
Thanks!

I don't have this variant but, your best bet is to post this question within the following Official LineageOS thread for your device.

Hey guys, I was hoping someone could point me to the latest / most efficient magisk installation instructions? I know how to do it the original way when I first got my phone, but I remember reading about a better method and a newer TWRP install process that enabled you to keep TWRP installed and still boot the phone.
Did many Google searches and used XDA search but the results were all old instructions.
I apologise in advance for those of you who are already offended by the fact that I didn't read every single post on the entire site and internet to find something I am searching for.
Thank you and I hope your new year is off to a good start
I use this guide: https://mata.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
The latest TWRP is located at https://dl.twrp.me/mata/
The latest Magisk is v18.0: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
I would suggest also checking out the PH1 Dev Telegram group where you can find the TWRP and Magisk Patched Images you were talking about as well as well as other things you might find interesting. Here is the link if your interested https://t.me/EssentialPH1DEV
Thanks guys!!
Hello again! Sorry for another rookie question but even though I got Lineage OS up and running on my Pixel XL and am pretty happy with it there’s one thing I’m wondering about and can’t seem to find an answer for, if I just booted TWRP (fastboot boot <image> in bootloader/fastboot mode) to install Lineage OS is it going to matter if I just install TWRP now using the steps in the Install via ADB section from the guide on this site? Basically does the order that Lineage OS and TWRP are installed in matter?
Seems like it would have been better had I installed it but the install instructions for Lineage OS I followed (from lineageos.org) just said to boot it so that’s all I did. While I haven’t read anything that says not to do this I thought I’d ask just in case.

I don't have a Google device myself but, I would think that you should be able to obtain some better guidance and support within the following Device Dedicated Area of the forum that's specific to the Google Pixel XL.

The following threads should be helpful for obtaining guidance that's specific to the Official LineageOS and TWRP for your device.

If all else fails and, you don't receive any responses from the above threads, you can always try to obtain some member guidance within the following Q&A thread that's specific to your device as well.

When I posted that I was thinking more generally about if there was something about each program where the installation order would matter but you make a good point, I'll have a look through those threads and the Pixel XL forum and ask there if necessary. Thanks!
I had recently installed the renegade project on my Oneplus 6t and when it came to the stage to install drivers I flashed Windows 11 successfully and installed the wrong drivers. Now on boot, it boots into recovery mode saying it couldn't verify a driver file. How would I fix this?
