Getting Google+ (and some other updated APKs) To Install
I'm coming from the Nexus 7 forum. When the first build went up, the original lollipop gapps package ( teraload dot net/d/2832af4e3473bde24f6123034dfe3490 ) which worked for me was able to run Google+ (and install a few other manual updates, such as a slightly higher version Play Store and Services). However, it simply wasn't able to run the new Google Now Launcher, like this gapps does.
So I had the bright idea to try flashing the other Google+ - compatible gapps before this Google Now Launcher - compatible gapps. And the result so far seems favorable. I'll update once I get everything installed and can try a test run.
I did have to wipe data to get it to work, so this does have to be done on a fresh install.

oops, no google play

There is now Google Now Launcher in Homescreen choser on latest gapps-lp-20141109

no hdr+
noticed that hdr+ is missing from google camera. can someone confirm that?

whatsapp message
It is a very good ROM, many options and smooth.
However, after installed, I have a big issue.
After installed gapps and sign-in my google account, almost all apps are back except Whatsapp. When it is downloading to 63% starting to install but failed because the APK is invalid. I think it is not completely downloaded yet.
How to fix this issue?
The battery seems that it is not as long as stock ROM (4.0.4).

Thank you Q&ABot for making this thread for us, it helps a bit. Ok, as for your question popo, I find that whatsapp issue very strange since it installed fine for me every time.
Maybe try backing it up on another rom, then restore the backup on AICP. And yes, its battery time is like most of our KK roms.

I think u should put your questions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877166
This topic is only for LiquidSmooth questions
About your question: Install BMM and do partition stuffs then you will be able to install 4 more custom ROMs on your phone :fingers-crossed:
But first, read this great tutorial (including videos)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2602229
System 6 Error when loading Nano/mini Gapps on LS v32 Atrix2
I got brave today, after much reading on the forums and watching Tech ArnY rooting videos and BMM 0.3.4 - Great information.
Here are the steps that I took today and their results:
1.) Rooted the Atrix 2 MB865 (AT&T) that has OTA ICS 4.0.4 ROM. Rooting was successful,
2.) Post install of MBB 0.3.4 and SuperUser, I kept the ICS 4.0.4 ROM on System 1 of the phone.
3.) Next, following Tech Arn Y's teaching, I was able to successfully flash LiquidSmooth (AcePort-LS-KK-Milestone-3.2-edison.zip) onto System 3 post wipe clean /dalvik, et cetera and successful install.
4.) So far, so good. Next I attempted to load GAPPS from this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942). Again, post check of MD5 check sum for both mini and nano GAPPS - no issues.
5.) While attempting to flash either the mini or nano GAPPS onto the Atrix 2 into System 3, it shows the following (E: Error in /ext/pa_gapps-modular-nano-4.4.4-20141121-signed.zip) (Status 6) Installation aborted.
6.) I can boot into either ROM without issues, however, even after a reflash of System 3 and again successful install of LS-KK-Miestone 3.2, GAPPS gives Status 6 install error.
Looking for clues in these forums, but I have not come across anything yet. Any/all help would be very much appreciated!
@Starrider17 I'm betting your gapps are too large for your partition size. Find the PA gapps thread and download the pico gapps then try again. If it fails again the PA gapps will generate a log and place it on your SD card to tell you why it failed.

Thanks 1BadWolf for the reply. At first, I thought that the size of the GAPPS was perhaps the issue, but it did not end up to be the case. After continuing my search in XDA Forums (a wealth of great information here without doubt!), I stumbled upon a video that explained Status 6 and Status 7 errors which are the most common when flashing GAPPS post ROM into any phone. In my case, here is the summary of the events:
1.) Flashed pa-gapps mini 4.4.4 (at 229 mbytes ) - Status 6 error.
2.) Wipe clean System 3 and then flashed pa-gapps-nano 4.4.4 (at 120 mbytes) 2x - Status 6 error.
3.) Being somewhat frustrated, and yet challenged, I took the clue for the status 6 error and by chance, I grabbed the Slim_mini-gapps 4.4.4 (at 65 mybtes) - Gapps successfully loaded!
4.) Wanting to confirm whether the issue lives in the size of the GAPPS - or - something in one of the scripts (Meta-INF > com > google > android > update-binary or update-script), I went ahead and did another Wipe-Clean and flashed Slim-normal-gapps 4.4.4 (at 183 mbytes) - Gapps successfully loaded
Summary: In business and in life, something a solution or a work-around is found and implemented without knowing the root cause!
Hopefully, the documenting of my journey here will be beneficial to someone down the road just as many of the posting in this forum have been (and continue to be) to me too!
I have installed this ROM on my Atrix 2.. Stable rom as mentioned.I just found one bug,i.e The microphone for sound recording,Google voice or Whatsapp recording doesn't work But during a call the microphone does work.Please find a solution for it.

Hey guys, thanks for trying out my Liquidsmooth port and offering your feedback. Unfortunately, I'm no longer able to work on the existing ports or even lollipop since development has completely died down.
This is because our current recovery, BMM isn't able to boot any lollipop rom and it's the only working one we have. All developers and supporters have moved on pretty much, so all you can do is just play around with what's there. I'm still kinda around with my A2, but don't have the time to do anything anymore since I've moved onto a newer device, work, life, etc.
If you want someone to blame for this, firstly blame Motorola for the locked bootloader and then blame Google for making 5.0 have enforced SELinux which is why we can't boot any LP rom. Aside from that, this device is amazing to have and I hope you all have a wonderful time with it.

A 'Bug' Correction Tip
If you are facing 'Google Play' instantly closings and can't add a Google Account to the device, be sure you have selected the 'Google Login Services.apk' and 'Google Services Framework.apk' at the AROMA Installer menu.
Small issues
Your rom is very nice, and i will find small issues..

Bootloader
Excuse, I'm new with the customization thing, is there a way to install this with a locked bootloader?

No you must unlock bootloader first, and easily customize your phone:good:
Thanks bro
I admit that I didn't install all the apk's in the aroma installer like some Social Apps, I dont even use them and if I remember correctly it is optional. I have installed all the Google apks in the removed apps included the 3 main apks, after that I downloaded the Google Play apk from a site (the latest version 5.7.10) and I installed it. I rebooted my phone and when I opened it, a window appeared and said Google Play has stopped. What have I done wrong?
Edit: I didnt download the appropriate play store apk for my version and also I didnt installed all the nessecary apks for google play, problem solved
the apps work great but the icons are gone how can I solve this?
Edit: Its all ok, after I updated one of those app all the icons appeared again, solved

Crashing report for sokp
So I flashed the sokp rom which as some of you may know is based on cyangogen 12.1 currently. however after flashing gapps and supersu through the latest version of twrp, services, apps, and processes started to crash and after only 6-10 min android system would crash and I would be forced to restart the device.
My guess is kernel issues, but has anyone else run into this issue
ps. im on the nexus 5
Problem fixed
I posted somthing earlier about multiple apps as well as android system crashing in sokp.
I would just like to say that the problem has been fixed in the 5.1.1 update.
and ps- nice Jobb on 5.1.1 :
ROM doesn't install
Whenever I try to download R3.1, it gives me this error. Could you please help me, thanks. I've re downloaded the rom numerous times in case I had an unreliable connection. Can someone please help me? Thanks
Please uptade the layers theme manager, every time I tried updating it showed Error: 505. I guess it's something to do with the app built into the ROM.
