I installed the unofficial carbon rom 4.4.2 on my pico. And installed a gapps package from https://www.mediafire.com/folder/6aq2d1kmqect4/GApps
but can't install it. It says insufficient storage and gave this log file. In some threads the gapps size is 82 mb. I don't get it how it can be installed.
This GApps package is too big for the /system partition on our Explorer. Download this one.

I have installed Philz Touch 6 and installed ROM cm-12.1-20151201-0012-UNOFFICIAL-p5110.zip from Andi and have tried a using the GAPPS Lollipop Base Gapps package for 5.1.1: gapps-511-base-20151205-1-signed.zip and when I do a reboot I get a bunch of google error messages.
Copy GApps and CM-Rom ZIPs to your internal SDCard (this works)
Boot into Recovery (this works)
wipe data factory reset (I go into this folder and there are two options I am not sure which one to select)
wipe cache (this works)
wipe dalvic cache (this works in the advanced tab)
format system
Flash CM-Rom ZIP from internal SDCard (this works)
Flash GApps zip from internal SDCard (this seems to work but I am not certain)
Reboot
no gapps installed
I tried a different approach and only installed the CM ROM and no gapps.
I have tried about 10 different gapps and none of them work with the latest build on my TAB 2 10.1 P5113.
With the ROM only everything seems stable.
have you tried : http://opengapps.org/
Is it possible to downgrade from cm13 to lollipop or cm 12.
You have a backup of your important data and a custom recovery installed, right?
0.- Download CM rom zip and GAPPS zip, and place them in your internal storage.
1.- Go to your custom recovery. Wipe Dalvik, Cache, Data and System Partitions (I use TWRP recovery on my devices)
2.- Flash the rom file
3.- Flash the gapps zip file.
4.- Reboot
If you want to go back to stock ROM, in the step 0 just download the zip for your device from this post and don't do the step 3 (these zips have gapps already installed).
OK I'm sure some of you have at least run into this problem when installing gapps over a custom ROM and I can tell you how to fix it!
after flashing your custom ROM be in twrp and from the main screen select: mount>select system>press home button>wipe>advanced wipe>select system>click repair or change file system>resize file system>swipe to resize. After that you are almost done, go back to main screen and flash the gapps zip and congratulations you got gapps successfully installed, if any errors when booting or bootloops make sure you try this again EXACTLY how i said. If this helped you please hit the thanks button ?
error 70 = no enough storage
Storage is storage and full is full... In most cases /system is almost full. This partition contains your OS. The GApps installer.zip is not an image file! It installs single files and files need storage. If there is not enough free storage then you should delete some other apps.
Resizing doesn't make sense because for the additional new storage on /system you lost storage on another partition. In most cases userdata.

When you install gapps it installs it to the os partition and as such makes sense as of why it's a system app. Besides this worked for me Everytime
Well, I tried it with my Nexus 5 and lineage 14.1, Gapps 7.1 Nano. Didn't work! Got the same old Error 70.
And the answer is .... use a gapps.config.txt file. You can include/exclude the packages you want in gapps. This reduces the size needed in the recovery partition so it will fit. If you want to know how much space you have to work with, open a terminal and as su, enter df -h and see what the system partition is using and how much free space you have.
Worked for me!
Trying to flashh Gapps to my Moto Edge S via TWRP. when I attempted to flash NikGapps and BiTGApps, I get the following error messages:
NikGapps: "Installation Failed! Looks like Storage space is full"
"Updater process ended with ERROR: 1
Error installing zip file '[file]'"
BiTGApps: "Updater process ended with ERROR: 1
Error installing zip file '[file]'"
I definitely have over 100GB free in storage, and in the "Select Storage" option it recognizes over 105000MB on internal storage. So...why isn't it working?
Do a Google search for "TWRP error 1": dozens results.

Modern phones have a separate 'system' partition and Gapps as well as ROM will be installed there. You can't choose to install it elsewhere.
Check the space available in 'system' partition. If it is not enough, either you have to choose a smaller Gapps package or repartition the storage. If you choose a smaller package and succeed in installing it, the rest of the Google apps can be installed from the Play Store. They will install outside the 'system' partition so you will not have any issue.

TWRP shows "System" and "system_ext." Both seem to mount fine in TWRP, but when flashing I get the same error. The gapps files I'm using are less than 90MB. It says "Current space: 0" so it seems to think that there's fully zero extra space on System. NikGApps says, "/system available size: 0 KB"

Very late to the party, but I'm facing this exact issue right now. Have you found a way to flash gapps eventually? I tried resizing the file system but to no avail.
So far I've tried using different twrp versions, none worked, I would've tried orangefox but there's no version of that recovery for honor 6x and the p8 lite version, unlike twrp won't run.
Hello all.,
I have a OnePlus 8T with latest LOS 19.1 20221124 from today, and TWRP 3.6.2_12-27082022 in both slots A&B (firstly flashed LOS, then flashed TWRP on top of LOS recovery).
I had NikGApps-core-arm64-12.1-20220908 installed on both slots, and wanted to test BiTGApps-arm64-12.1.0-v1.7 due to its lower footprint and higher update frequency., so I completely uninstalled NikGApps on both slots (big mistake) by flashing the same GApps package I have installed, but renaming it to "UnInstall.zip" as their support page suggests.
NikGApps got completely uninstalled on boths slots with no errors.
But whenever I try to flash the smaller BiTGApps-arm64-12.1.0-v1.7 GApps package, I got an error for unsufficient space in the system partition.
Now I have a /system free space of 48.5MB, previous NikGApps package was 90.2 MB and got uninstalled, new BitGApps package is 66,5MB. How is it possible, if BitGApps is smaller than NikGApps?
I have tried to wipe dalvik & cache and reboot, on both slots, but system partition size does not change.
I remember before flashing NikGApps that /system was around 150MB free. It looks like all the NikGApps were there yet, despite the log showing they have been uninstalled.
Now I am in a bootloop on both slots as I do not have any possibility to flash a GApp package due to the system partition free size.
I am checking some tutorials about resizing system partition size on TWRP on the "Repair/resize file system" menu, but i got no "/system" partition to tick (the system partition is mounted under the "Mount" menu), so I am lost.
What could I do to free/resize the system partition to at least accomodate the BitGapps package (around 20MB)?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

It is packed size of BiTGApps package. Actual installation is 200MB's for 12.1; It varies for different Android Version.
Thank you.
I ended up factory resetting the phone, so I will start from scratch.
Sideloaded LineageOS ROM and got flashed correctly. Tried to sideload BitGApps and got insuficient space in system partition again (around 55MB this time)
Which command is used to restore the partition table to default? I do not mind losing any data as it is factory reset. I just want a default /system size to be able to install/update GApps eventually.
Thanks in advance.
