google play services causing problems on 4.4 - HTC One S

I have tried cyanogen 11, and Lungo, and on both of those 4.4 ROMs I get an error after installing google play services. As soon as I install those, my keyboard reports an error, or my call app mallfunctions. Sometimes the whole rom crashes.
Could someone please pinpoint the problem for me, as I have tried latest TWRP and CWR recoveries to install the ROMs, cleaned every part of the phone before installing, and nothing seems to fix this problem.
ATTM, I'm on Lungo, and it worked perfectly till I updated google play with this crap.

Have you installed the current gapps for cm11? I think that could be the problem.

If the rom is 4.4.3 you need 4.4.3 gapps

[Q] What causes play store errors

My Stock HTC One S has been superb until about 6 months back when I continually keep getting Google Play Store Errors. It seems to be about 60% of the time which is a major pain.
I finally bit the bullet and rooted / rom'd my phone and have been progressing through the list of roms in XDA to try and eliminate this problem.
However, the Play Store issues persist!!! I've tried about 6 roms and a couple of different Gapps, so what's the cause??
Is the problem in my
Boot
Kernel
The Main Rom
Gapps
The closest I came to finding an answer was this quote - "The issue lies with the wifi module in the kernel. I have a fix should be out by tomorrow" in here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2523609&page=30
I've tried the usual clearing cache, uninstalling services, rebooting, try downloading on 3g rather than wifi etc etc etc. But the point is this barely ever works, and We Shouldn't Have to do this!!!! I've googled till my fingers hurt... Any suggestions gratefully received. I love this phone and don't want to change!
My Phone is currently, Hboot 2.15, S-On, cm-11-20140104-SNAPSHOT-M2-ville, gapps-kk-20140105-signed. S4 1.5GHz model. TWRP 2.7 (I think)

U use outdated versions of CM11 and GApps as far as i see. BUT do you get a specific error message? Or does the playstore not connect?

I tried the latest CM11 nightly previously, and the suggested Gapps from the CM website - http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps. I confirm I have TWRP = 2.7.0.0
I have now tried again cm-11-20140319-NIGHTLY-ville with the latest Gapps from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942 (I chose the minimal Gapps to allow everything else to update from the Play Store).
I'm still getting the "Unknown error code during application installation 960" - I've had others but this is the most common.
The play store does connect - and if an app fails to install, it may (or may not) work later on so it appears totally random.

OTA After Downgrade Then Upgrade Again

Hi there members of xda
A few months ago i updated to marshmallow on my moto g3 , and the experience was awful, not to mention the touch screen issues. I successfully downgraded to lollipop by skipping gpt.bin and bootloader.img, and i used lollipop for a while then got bored of it, so i tried to install cm13 official. When i did that , my phone gets google play store and google play services FC's on cm13. I have set google play services all permissions .. I have tried a wide variety of gapp packages and they all have the same problem. Google play store instantly crashes when i tap it, if that helps atall.
For now, i reflashed marshmallow stock. Should i be flashing cm13 from stock mm , or stock lp.. becuase i havent tried flashing using stock mm , becuase i didnt think it would make a difference as i always wipe the system partition before flashing cm anyway. :/
Many thanks,

Which gapps did you use? If you are having issues on cm try CrDroid or BrokenOS (go to their G+ community)
Btw, on the cm thread Alberto posted a fix for the touchscreen issues.

[Resolved] Problem with installing OpenGApps and CM13

Hey
I'm facing a problem with CM13 and i was wondering if anyone can help ..
Here is what happened;
Yesterday I updated my software and didn't notice that it was updating from CM12.1 to CM13
After installing the update it started giving errors similar to "Google Play Services has stopped" bla bla bla
So I said maybe I should flash new compatible GApps
I downloaded OpenGApps arm-6.0 and installed it, it went smooth
When I restarted into the system it was worse! more and more errors with even black home screen
So I wiped the cache/dalvik/system and decided to install them fresh
It went fine, finished optimizing apps then out of nowhere it rebooted and stuck on the Cyanogen loading animation
While searching I found this; github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Notes-for-Android-6.0
It mentions that I have to download a certain patch -Which isn't found in AOSP ROMs- to prevent force closures at first boot
I'm not sure if I need that for CM13 or not and also I don't know how am I supposed to compile that patch with the rom?
TLDR; Problem with installing OpenGApps and CM13, wiping cache/dalvik didn't fix
Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.

Various errors with SlimRom gapps on Moto G4

Hi,
I have a new Moto G4 runnning Slim-athene-6.0.1.build.1.11-WEEKLY-20161111-1135.
I am trying to get my apps installed and running without error and experiencing one setback after the next, see attachment. Installing gapps along with the rom and I can't get passed the setup stage. Installing the rom, rebooting then installing the current gapps and the keyboard does not work.
The closest I have got to being up and running is installing prior version of the gapps Slim_minimal_gapps.4.4.3.build.5.8-60.zip. However once this is installed my apps won't run and prompt me to install Google Play Services, and once I do that I get constant errors that Google Play Services has stopped working and the phone is practically useless. I have read clearing the cache for the app fixes this, but not for me.
Anybody managed to beat this?

Recent strange experience with this device

I have a Moto G3 XT1543 and since december I have given this device a second life and have been using it as a secondary phone. I decided to install LOS 14.1 because I feel is better for this device than LOS 17.1. Since then I had been using the phone and installing the updates without problems until a few weeks ago.
I thought I couldn't install the update because my version of TWRP was so out of date. So I decided to install the latest version for this device (twrp-3.5.2_9-0) and I was able to update the rom but it got me a lot of bugs, basically forced close in many processes.
So I decided to do a clean installation but still had a lot of bugs. So I installed previous versions of the rom, including the first one that I installed and worked fine, but it still had a lot of bugs (basically forced close in many processes, as I said before).
So I decided to go back to the TWRP I had before (twrp-3.4.0-0) and the bugs disappeared and I was able to use the rom without problems, but no matter what I do I cannot get youtube working now.
The gapps that I have been installed are open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-xxxxxxxx and I have done all the possible combinations: old gapps with the most recent rom (lineage-14.1-20210829-UNOFFICIAL-osprey), the most recent gapps with the oldest rom I have (lineage-14.1-20201221-UNOFFICIAL-osprey), the oldest rom I have with old gapps and the most recent rom with the most recent gapps, but youtube still doesn't work
As I said before, it doesn't matter what combination I do, even the first one I installed and worked since last december, nor what version of YouTube I have installed, the application closes. As a possible solution I have deleted cache and data of youtube but the problem still. The funny thing is all the applications that I have, including other google apps (chrome, gmail, maps) work without problem.
I have tried alternatives like YT Go, YT Vanced and New Pipe and all three work without problem, but honestly, although they are better alternatives, I don't want to use them.
So does anyone know how to fix this?
I used this weekend for testing and long story short I can use youtube but I have no idea how it was fixed.
But I will tell you about everything I did in case someone in the future is going through a similar situation to mine.
Following the indications that FNetV1 gave me in another post, I downgraded my TWRP version to 3.0.2-r5, then I installed the oldest rom I have (lineage-14.1-20201221) with the oldest gapps I have (open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20210112) but youtube was not working.
So with that same version of TWRP I installed the most recent rom available (lineage-14.1-20210829) with the most recent gapps and still youtube did not work.
So I installed the latest unofficial version that Squid2 developed for this device (twrp-osprey-3.2.3-r1) and then installed the oldest rom I have with the oldest gapps I have. The result was the same, youtube was not working.
I thought the problem was the gapps, so I installed the latest rom available with the most recent gapps but now with the Nano package. But the result was the same, youtube was not working.
So I gave up and for the last time I reinstalled the latest rom avaible with the most recent gapps, again with the pico package and as expected youtube was not working.
The funny thing is after I finished setting up my phone, I restarted it, reinstalled YouTube and voilĂ , I can now use YouTube without any problem.
As I said at the beginning, I have no idea how the problem was fixed, especially because I also rebooted my phone on several occasions with the previous tests.
So if anyone has an idea what I did wrong from the beginning or how the problem was fixed, feel free to comment.
