Gapps won't install

Title speaks for itself. I reflashed AOKP because the kernel I was on was giving me SOD and I forgot to reinstall Gapps as well. So I went into recovery to install it and I get something about not being able to install with (bad). I downloaded gapps again and got the same result. Do I need to reinstall the recovery?

Which gapps version? The latest I believe says ICS 3-17.

Yeah I've been trying to install the 3 17 version. The weird thing is that I've installed it before but know it's not installing.

Did you toggle script verification in your recovery that could cause it?
Currently on aokp hoping build 32 will convince me to stay

Just tried it and it didn't work :/

Is the UCLI3 update known to soft-brick phones w/ CWM?

I just got an update notification for build UCLI3. Is it safe to upgrade to on a phone with Clockworkmod Recovery installed? Some people are saying it boots into recovery, but then says "update failed" once rebooted.
TL;DR: Has anyone seamlessly updated to UCLI3 on a phone with CWM installed?

almost any update to a phone that doesn't have the stock recovery wont update due the fact that the update thats being sent out is processed differently with stock vs cwm and twrp
an no its not good to update with non stock recovery

Read the other 4 threads created about this and you'll find out the answer is no, it will not work.

I did. I didn't know whether or not the "update failed" message kept the phone from booting normally. I don't exactly have an hour or so to check.

So, would returning to just the stock recovery, then doing the OTA and re-installing CWM work, or do I need to do a factory reset as well beforehand?

I got the update notification as well. It downloaded and rebooted to CWM recovery without installing. Rebooted to system with no problems.I did an ODIN revert to stock and checked for updates, it downloaded and installed properly. Then reinstalled CWM via ODIN.Then rooted with flashable SU zip. all seems fine so far.

Yup! How's it working for you? It slowed down my data to about 2/3 of what it used to be on lf6. So it's no good for me.

Yeah I also noticed a significant drop in LTE speeds. Maybe more around 5-10mbps slower.

RebelROM Question

So I am trying to flash into this ROM from Clockwork Recovery and when attempting to install I am getting a "Installation aborted" error. Any ideas why this may be happening?

I skipped over using RebelROM and went with CM 10.1 and all is working well. One question. How do I get the Play store?

Flash the latest gapps package

Camera Failing

So I've been looking for a fix w/ my problem and haven't come across anything that works.
I installed CM 10.1 6/30 nightly. Phone worked great...but then all of a sudden my phone has stopped working.
I Odin'd back to stock...but my camera is still failing. I'm back at MF1 now...but I'm just trying to find a fix to get my camera working again.
Anyone have any info that could possibly help me out?
Thanks
Dep

Try clearing data and cache for the camera, reboot to recovery, and fix permissions. Let us know how it goes!

Try flashing the VRBMB1 baseband. The new updates didnt play well with roms using the older base and caused camera issues.

Yeah but he's on mf1 rom not mb1

So I'm on the latest CM nightly 7/16. I just flashed a new kernel hoping that would help (KT747).
Phone still has a "can't connect to camera" message pop up when I try my camera. This is getting quite worrying. Nothing I do seems to be working.
I'm desperate for your help.

Facing the same error
Hi,
I'm facing the same error! My SGS3-i747 (AT&T) is running stock Android 4.1.1, and I have rooted my phone. Also, I'm a noob :fingers-crossed:

Ram

Same issue here on 4.2.2 (Illusion) on my I747M. I made the mistake of uninstalling Maps, hoping it would reset something in the store... Now I have no Maps at all. lol

According to a statement I read from Google yesterday, this was a play store bug but it got resolved. Have you tried today?

Try updating to the lastest Gapps version for your os. I had the same problem and that worked for me

I am having the same problem using omega 50.1. Is there a solution? It says 'Application requires newer SDK version'
