[Q] Inverted GAPPS for Nexus S - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Everyone,
I am really excited to see that there is Inverted GAPPS that can be flashed; however, when I look through the forums I see them under everything other than Nexus S.
I have been following the thread at Rootz Wiki (XDA won't let me post link as I have not submitted enough threads), it is for the Galaxy Nexus, and am wondering if the inverted GAPPS here work for the Nexus S, seems I cannot find the right answer anywhere.
I am on Codename Android 1.4.0 with Matr1x kernel. Any advice or proper download and instructions links would be appreciated.
Cheers!

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/15092-invertedtotally-inverted-apps-updated-2-16-google-reader-added/ most of these work for our nexus s i havent tried all of them though

Excellent! Yeah, thanks for the link. Can you tell me which ones worked for you? I'm hoping for Gmail, Email, Talk, Market and Calendar. Also, any special intructions on installing them? I read something about uninstalling updates....I'm not sure how to do that as I have never had to. Thanks in advance.

I should also mention that I flashed the new 404 GAPPS from Codename Android....is this an issue with the inverted GAPPS?

Not sure about this questions answer, but to answer above, yes. All of those you mentioned worked fine for me.

They have all worked for me on Nexus S and Desire S.
I got mine from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1435194

Codename Android 1.4.0 with Matr1x 16.5 kernel here. I've tried two different packages of of inverted gapps, and both seem to crash gmail. This thread* has a few pointers on getting them working, but between the new-to-me acronyms and the somewhat pigeony english, it's a little hard to understand.
Best I can guess is that you need to flash AOKP gapps, reboot, then flash the inverted apps one at a time (the multi-app pack seems to be more problematic).
That said, the ones I installed that work look absolutely phenomenal on the AMOLED screen.
* I'd post the link but the spam filter sez I need 8 posts to put up links. Suffice to say that if you google the phrase "page__st__760__p__478289", it should send you to the right place.

Discussion for new aospGBModv0.1 - AOSP 2.3.1 (Gingerbread) 12/25/2010

So what's updated on this 12/25/2010 version from the previous one?
Also, what's not working at this point?

LOL, good point.
Seriously, aosp makes an excellent job (as usual), but never announces what's new or what's still not working. Personally I'd like to know.
Where's the download link for this "Discussion for new aospGBModv0.1 - AOSP 2.3.1 (Gingerbread) 12/25/2010" rom?

Right here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=722122
I know it has links BUT they are broken... 404 - Not Found
He mentioned before the 0.1 release that he was working on the gapps so since I don't see anything changed in the .1 release I think gapps are the only new thing.
Ok for some reason when I flash included gapps nothing happens ... no Gmail no market nothing at all downloaded multiple times flashed, wiped formatted all, still nothing... even booted first before flashing
..
this is what i found that works
calls/data
txt msgs
mms send/recive
wifi
wifi tethering
all the gapps work
what doesn't work
camera
senors/lights
gps
there maybe more but that is all i found so far on 0.1
camera!?
lol, if thats all that doesnt work this may as well be my daily.
This has become my daily. I don't need GPS I can use a map if I need to and the lights not coming on save in battery. My phone has been unplugged since 8am and I am at 57%. I also tossed in one of Deca's kernels. My only concern @ this point is Gmail not working. But I can get the gist of them in the few seconds they do open for. As for the camera not working it is winter in Washington it is always dark here it seems. So you need a flash.
mmm gingerbread.
forgive me if you think I'm being an ass, but why in the world does this tread exist, and why is it in development? The AOSP gingerbread ROM thread is already a place for discussion, and it contains the actual development. I think when somebody asked earlier "where's the download link?" they were actually asking "why is this thread in development?" only in a sarcastic way. If you want to know what is different in AOSP's rom you have to READ the thread near when he updates, the answers are always there, just not from AOSP himself.
Peace and love.
Well we have a thread disscusing the cm6 nightlys and that download link doesn't even work anymore and yeah maybe people are just being lazy and don't want to read though 90 pages of replies but if there was a problem with where the these is located I'm sure a mod would move it so instead of sharing ur negativity and post something positive or thread related and let the mod's do their job. No this does work with Firerat's mod just takes some tweaks
First follow the directions for the recovery that's all the same
but inorder for it to be stable you then need to wipe/formart everything and flash the first alpha and decafuct if you wish then the fr boot zip
reboot, once booted reboot recovery and flash the old gb gapps and reboot
once that boots up reboot recovery and flash aospGBMod-v.01 zip and reflash decafuct if you wish and then the FRboot zip again then reboot
once that has booted if maket doesn't show up reboot recovery and flash the old gb gapps again and you should have the market
for some reason the new gb apps don't work with firerat's mod the market never shows up and if you download the vending app from the internet and install it just fc and never opens
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8571811/gapps-mdpi-20101020-gb-signed.zip here is a link to the old gb apps if anyone needs them

Not trying to be negative, and the answer to lazy non-readers is never another thread. BTW the nightlies thread was posted by darch, who is the maintainer of the heroc for cyanogen, and that thread is actually used to help develop the rom (this one isn't, I doubt AOSP will follow two threads for his one rom). also, the nightlies thread has 7000+ posts, so if the logic were to open a new thread at 90 pages, well, you get my point..... If this should be here than great, it just doesn't seem like it should.
yeah your probably right aosp probably won't follow two treads but maybe this thread will keep the guys trying to test for aosp closer on the other tread and all other questions can be disscused here and i don't think your an ass i think you have a point of view just like i do. But just cause you and i know what we are doing most of the time doesn't mean there aren't people on here that don't know what they are doing and if having two treads helps them and us out so be it if this tread dies so be it but only time will tell give time this tread could become just as usefully as the nightly thread but we can't tell on only the short time it's been up
So mic/sound is working now?

Looks like the only thing that's not working is the camera.
Which unfortunately is a deal breaker for me, but oh well. I'm still amazed at how fast this rom is coming along anyway.

A simple mod alert on the first post asking a mod to move the thread to Q&A or General would work. If nothing happened, then it was meant to be.
I agree, however, that this isn't needed. Esp since it's now outdated and no ROM development is happening here.

[Q] gapps update - change log?

So I've been following the stingray nightllies and have seen a few updates to the gapps package. Does anyone know what these updates are doing? I looked around and couldn't find the change log.

I haven't checked the version numbers, but with EOS GApps v10, everything seems to be running wonderfully! Market is tablet-optomized, gallery seems to be syncing properly, music works...everything works. It is totally worth the wipe to get this level of functionality.
I just saw were Gapps 10.2 was out. I'm still running Gapps 8 with v32 of the EOS ICS nightlies. I figured I would upgrade during the weekend. Could someone please post the link to the new Gapps. I've been looking for awhile and can't find them.
Thanks for the help.

a few questions: RebelRom on Exhibit 4g

Hey there everyone, I'm running RebelRom 3.0.8 on a Samsung Exhibit 4G and while it's a BEAUTIFULLY smooth and refined Rom (the best I've used out of the several I've checked out) I do have 2 issues I can't seem to resolve.
1. The wifi calling issue.. I've searched this forum high n low, but I've found no solution that is complete.
I saw that there are a few files in system and app that need to be placed (com.android.kineto.apk and libril_status.so, right?) but where would one put said files, and how, just es-file?
2. I cannot complete any downloads from either the play store, or from external sd. It hangs at "installing" and then reboots to the splash screen of rebelrom.
I wiped EVERYTHING, (rom, all caches and factory wipe), installed galaxyfinal for RebelRom, and then the theme fixes, and in any case it does the same thing.
Any help would be so great, and many many thanks to the awesome devs and contributors/testers etc for this lovely piece of software!
Thanks bpear96, jocala camcory and many others!!

[Q] Cm 10.1-20130102 nightly s-voice/google search

Pretty awesome and stable rom will use for a dd. I've been looking on the forums to see other peoples experiences, most are pretty good. I have a question on my own though. Is anyone having issues with google search / and s-voice? Does anyone know if there is a fix for these 2, or are they still in development?

I'm not sure about S-Voice (is it even possible to install that in CM?) but google search, voice search and text-to-speech all worked fine for me on 1/2/13 nightly. I dirty flashed from 12/26 nightly and have had no problems thus far.

Thanks for your input. I'm sorry for my ignorance, i'm still new on the rooting/rom scene. I assume that when you say "dirty flash" you mean, you don't restore to factory default, wipe the dalvik cash or cash? and just install over the original rom you were running before?

[Q] No more GPS on any rom

Hi all,
this is my first XDA post :good:
My gps doesn't work anymore on my HTC Sensation 4G: after 15 minutes it still doesn't get the position.
Tried different navigators (maps, osmand) and specific tools (GPS status & toolbox) -- I've flashed different roms (CM 10.2/11 with Sultan Kernel, Miui V5) but the problem is still there. Location is (obviously) active both for google and in generic settings.
What would you do to understand if the gps module is broken?
Here are some info about current configuration
Android 4.3.1 @sultan ION 50.5
Baseband 11.68.3504.00P_11.21.3504.13_2
Thanks for any help
Which ROm did you use,
Try this agps.patch.google.build.nossl.v3.1.zip
This is a flashable zip onto Recovery
I discovered that GPS is dependent on the Gapps that you have flashed. Please chose the correct gapps package relevant to your ROM and it will lock like a breeze.

Try a Sensed ROm without GAPPS
resolved!

It worked! I honestly didn't think since I flashed 3 different Roms without success (always with full wipe). With both maps and tuttocittanav (italian free offline nav) it took the signal in less than 20 seconds! The only problem I'm having is with OsmAnd navigator but It is the app.
I flashed the cm 10.2 and cm 11 both of jan 4 from Android1234567 (with ION mm). I also flashed 2 different MIUI versions (3.12.20 and 3.12.27).
As far as the GAPPS version I always download the one linked in the Rom thread post.
Thanks a lot!

Done couple of times
Since I'm a new user I can't put links in my posts (neither quoting urls from post I'm answering) -- in the Dev section you linked to my post but here people won't find the url, you'd better link to your solution post. I answer you there cause I can't write in Dev area
