@galaxyfreak .. Pls press thanks.. I want my first thanks from u

"Ok Google " Keyword
Found a way to get OK GOOGLE keyword to work on pico using @galaxyfreak 's CM11:victory:
go to build prop
find the line :
ro.config.low_ram=true
change this to
ro.config.low_ram=false
Save and reboot..
If you want it in your homescreen , just set google now launcher as your default launcher..
Its that simple:victory:

Google now launcher
Google now launcher is included in full gapps.. or you can download it from somewhere else..
without the launcher you can only use the keyword when on the google now app

browser crash
the original browser even can't launch. All the app with webview carsh.
thanks
that bug are in beta5.
RC1 is great but GPS is not working.

Here are the answers:
1. As of now overclock kernel is not available for RC1 you can use cody kernel : Here
2. Apps are removed in the package so that basic services are installed in our /system partition as our /system has less space.
You can download from playstore..
3. Yes. Play services are needed as this services contains syncing services for calender,gmail etc. This services are also needed for the play store and connect your google account to google servers..
In short its very imp and indeed needed.

What about the calender? it doesn't sync. And BTW how to flash that kernel n00b.

I think it should sync.. Open the calender app.. then in settings connect your account.. I never used it so dont know if it will work for you or not..
To flash the kernel you need to have 2 partitions.. SD ext and sd-cache.. Total 3 - fat32-ext4(SD-Data)-ext4(SD cache)(65mb)
I hope you know how to make partitions..
After making partitions only you can use this oc kernel..
If you are palnning to this..
Then take a backup of your ROM..
Partition you card..
Restore the backup.. Reboot once..
Thne flash the kernel..

I just registered to xda, rooted phone like a week ago, had no need to post since community is awesome. But, for now I can't post links. Sucks ass.
Anywhore, calendar sync..
Whore it was to get it to work. I did it. Now, what you need is surprisingly simple:
GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk
Google it, its 140KB apk and install it like any other app. With it calendar works like a charm.
BTW, galaxyfreak, awesome kitkat, looove it! Cant wait for RC2, but since it won't get on any time soon and this RC1 isn't bad at all, you will get a lapdance, my treat

Move to Kirmani's Weeklies
Since galaxyfreak has stopped his work on Kitkat, move to @kirmaniarslan's Weekly CM11..
More smooth than galaxyfreak's rom as it does not have any frame capping..
No bugs to specify..:fingers-crossed:

In these gapps there are only the AOSP Quick Search Box and Play Store from wich you can install every other gapp and app.
In these gapps there are:
- minimum core gapps

edit : one more question... with other minimal gapps, if you use an aosp rom, you also have to flash aosp calendar sync. is it the same with your gapps?
thanks
Exactly what I was looking for, does this contain whatever files needed for google tts and search to work? And if not, can someone tell me what files are needed, along with location and permissions. Thank you

In these gapps there is not google calendar sync and there is no problem with any aosp rom, if you need google calendar sync then you have to flash it.

No in my gapps there is not any google sync funcionality and i do not have any all-in-one cm11 rom.
In the latest update i removed the facebook sync fix.

[Q] How to fix Google Play problem on CM11 HTC Explorer?

Hi,
So I recently installed CM11 on my HTC Explorer A310B and everything successfully works fine except for Google Play. The issue is that everytime I try to sign in I receive the message: "There was a problem communicating with Google servers......Try again later." Does anybody know of a fix for this issue? I have tried multiple GAPPS files and CM11 installations but nothing seems to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Sorry I can't post links as I am a new member but the Cyanogenmod 11 I installed is a unofficial release canidate from galaxyfreak's development page and the GAPPS packaged I installed was the one from the Cyanogenmod wiki.
I have also tried other GAPPS packages such as the one galaxyfreak posted on the CM11 development page but to no avail and I am now about to try the Paranoid Android GAPPS micro modular package.
Thanks.

All you can do is manually install google play sevices ..
You can find that in gapps package in system/priv-app named as prebuiltGMScore.apk something like this..
Then sigin it will work..

Cheers I will try that. I had a feeling it might have something to do with Google Play Services as none of the other GAPPS are working properly as well.

Still has some bugs .
I am Beta testing it with several Beta Tester and @sawgent (Beta Team Leader)
But we are getting closer
But be aware that it may wipe your recovery after flash . You will need to flash your recovery again thru Odin (Don't worry it's safe )

Don't Thank me , Thank MIUI Team
Strange for the links , I logged out and was still able to download.
Most of the bugs has been fixed and the one left are just small bugs that appear on some devices and some not.
(Like FCs on screenshots,Browser that appeared with me but not on other devices)
So I can't be specific , I am currently downloading the full ROM to try it on a clean start .

@spikesfire
Please provide some information ,screenshots,what is working/not working , and a proper direct download link for the first post.
Users expect this , so if you are going to maintain this , you must provide these.
Look at other developments to see how other devs have laid out their first posts.

For Play store it's easy :
1 - When you create/enter MIUI account choose to do not sync anything
2 - Go to The MIUI Market and make a search for 'Google installer' : from the returned search , Choose the installer by 'Eric Xiang'
You can recognize it as a Red Icon With a big 'G' and a small Android
3 - Install the package about 16 mb and launch it : You can now install all the Missing google Services like :
Contact Sync
Email Sync
Accounts Google (And Sync also)
and of course Playstore
Don't worry,it will guide you
4 - Then go to the account section and you will notice the new google account entry
Just Login and sync whatever you want. :
Your contact list will be populated from your Gmail account

Creating google account fails on server error

Hello,
I just installed CM 13 (nighly build 2016-01-29) on my Galaxy S4 mini following those two threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...i9190-i9195-cyanogenmod-13-0-s4-mini-t3276141
I also installed the Google Apps:
http://opengapps.org/?api=6.0&variant=nano
The only thing a bit special is that my phone is a Korean version (SHV-E370K) , whereas I selected firmware for the i9195 version.
The problem I have is that I cannot create my Google account. It always fails with a message telling me it cannot connect to the Google servers and that I should try later.
I searched xdadevelopers site for such problem, but could not find any solution.
I have no problem accessing Internet with phone (wi-fi or through GSM data service).
Any idea ?
Many thanks
Marc

Yeah I'm sorry for that but SuperSU disables dm-verity. This is necessary for GoogleAssistant to work. If you don't want GoogleAssistant you can install my file without SuperSU. If someone knows how to disable dm-verity or knows a kernel which has that feature please contact me

This is because this script removes calendar. Sorry for that. I will send the Calendar.apk to you tomorrow if you don't mind
Good idea but you should add alternative apps to ones you're removing.

Probably I will add Aroma Installer and some apps that you can choose whatever you like. I did this earlier on another device so that wouldn't be a Problem
Please add wallpaper, live wallpaper and pixel icon. Phone and Messenger also.

it is the official site of @Chainfire with all official releases of SuperSU. least you can do is Link to him instead of your private link. also its the latest version so compatible with every version of Android for our device ESPECIALLY CM 14.1. i dont want to be rude but proper credits have to be given when using someone's work and dont remirror files.
@peshellas When I'm home i will change this and add thanks and credits. And btw I just used the download link above because I wasn't sure if the official .zip would work because they have different build numbers and the one from the downloadlink seemed to be newer. And the download link isn't mine I just took the link from a site which uploaded this file.
