GAPPS issue for CM12.1 update - General Questions and Answers

Hi All,
I am using Samsung S2 GT-I9100 device with CM12.1. Earlier I was using KitKat and recently updated to Lollypop. While I was on KitKat got an update for CM12.1 Nightly and updated my phone to Lollypop. After that all my Gapps have stopped working and even I have tried to flash them through recently available Gapps packages, none of the Gapps are working.
Please suggest the fix.
Thanks!!

get the update from cm site, and a lollipop gapps. wipe cache, dalvic cache, and system only in advanced menu, then flash rom and gapps.
no data will be lost. make a backup first, in case there is a problem.

Thanks for your input. Just querying, if i will flash only the gapps will it work as my phone is already have lollipop os. Just trying to avoid to flash lollipop again.
Please let me know your thoughts.

really nothing will change by doing it the way i said, unless you made a bunch of system mods.
you can try it your way, it may work.
my way just gives you a clean system, so there is no chance of conflict with the old gapps that dont work properly.

Can i flash using default cyanogen recovery? I have tried installing CWM but it is going by default to Cyanogen Recovery. Could you please help in providing the steps for easy reference if possible.
Thanks!!

i wasnt aware cyanogen had their own recovery. not knowing anything about it, i cant speculate if you can use it to flash with.
the procedure i described in post 2 are the proper steps, but if you dont have those options in the cyan recovery, im not sure what to tell you. sorry

I tried downloading and updating with the CM 10.1 Nightly 061613 and same things is happened with it. Never comes to home screen. Then I did some experiments and found that, when I install Gapps it will not restart. In the CM10.1 Nightly 061213 even I was not able to boot without Gapps.

Comming from paranoid, I suggest first to back up apps data and wipe caches before the flashing the Rom .
You should not have any issues there after but if any, the wipe data and flash Rom and pa gapps

Yep, that's pretty much what's recommended for changing Roms. I personally don't clean anything when flashing similar Roms but PA is a bit complex imo and you already had issues with it. so, wipe.

Ok for some reason, gapps updated and then it said that it has to install so it rebooted me into recovery and it started to install but it said that there was an error in the rom manager script or something like that. So I just got fed up and restored my backup that I had. So now I am back on stock. I want to install OmniROM though tomorrow.

So lets say that I just want to install OmniROM. Will OmniROM work with CWM?
Also will I be able to automatically update gapps once OmniROM boots because for some reason I cannot flash the latest version of gapps so I have to use an older version?
You can also get gapps from goo manager and the online version.

It's not that PA doesn't work with CWM, just the ota app.
OmniROM requires twrp or CWM-based recovery. Not CWM itself if I recall.
You also have zero reason to install those gapps updates on either rom..
Gapps are updated automatically through the play store.

[Q] - No Calls or SMS OxygenOS or CM12

OK I am having a problem, when i rooted and followed the direction to install both OxygenOS or CM12 nightly I am unable to receive any SMS or phone calls except after a reboot. Once i reboot any saved messages come through and then once the phone sleeps it stops. I have rolled back to CM11S for the time being. Any steps or tricks to follow to get this issue resolved.
"followed the direction to install both OxygenOS or CM12 nightly" does it mean you are using Multiboot?

No just flashing either one I have this result. Not sure if I am doing something wrong in the process.
Steps:
Wipe all but internal
Flash Rom (then gapps if CM12)
Flash SU
Reboot

Well all i could suggest it, also please flash the CM12 firmware once. In theory oxygenOS and CM12 firmwares are compatible. So flash like this:
Install CM12 fimrware zip
Wipe System, Data, Cache, Dalvik etc without Internal memory
Flash Rom Zip
Flash Gapps
Flash SuperSu
and then let it boot and settle down. Before restorign apps or data, check for any issues again
seems to be sitting stable at the moment, will keep testing. but thanks for the input.

Great! Let me know if the bug persists. And be careful with firmwares. For CM12 roms, just flash the firmware once and you're good to go for all of then.

spoke too soon, after letting the phone sit ideal for a few hours and testing incoming calls\sms nothing came through. restored a backup of CM11S, for the week to have a working device. will keep trying to get to a root cause later in the week. will also open a help ticket with OnePlus to see if there is something I am missing as well since this happens with OxygenOS as well.

[Q] Urgent CM 12.1 Issue!

Hey everyone,
Thank you all for reading this...
Today, I wanted to update my phone from cm-12.1-20150429-NIGHTLY-bacon.zip to cm-12.1-20150502-NIGHTLY-bacon.zip and after optimizing all 199 applications the lock screen appeared and everything seemed fine. However a second later, a pop-up appeared delivering the crash of the google play services. After pressing on "ok" (the only option), the phone switched off and began optimizing the apps again and again, showing the boot sequence in-between. After a while, I tried to install the update again through TWRP and I failed again. Then I tried to restore my backup from the 19th April I had probably made with Nandroid Backup (not exactly sure) and I failed again. Now I have turned off my phone entirely so that it won´t get too hot.
Does anybody know how to fix this issue (preferably without wiping)? And do you think, should I stay with the nightlies or switch to Cyanogen OS 12 (how?)
Best regards from the android newbie,
George (ambach10)
Try reflashing slim's gapps package.

Thanks for helping me. I did, but it just continued to optimize. I also tried to install the newest cm12.1 update "cm-12.1-20150505-NIGHTLY-bacon.zip" by downloading it via a mac (is that a problem?) so that it would work with the newest gapps zip but I couldn´t even download the cm12.1 zip as it turned into a useless folder. Do you, or anyone else, know what to do know? I´m really frustrated that I cannot have access to my phone. I am also ready to wipe it, if necessary.

I've had this issue before. To fix it, I used these gapps, did a full wipe, then flashed everything all over again and it was working without any problems.
Also, I ended up just switching over to COS12 and am still running that. If you want, you can get that here.

Also, make sure you are running latest version of TWRP recovery (or whatever recovery you are using)... there are compression incompatibilities with some of the older versions.

Bootloop upon flashing Open Gapps in CyanogenMod 13

Hello!
I could not find any other threads related to this issue, so my apologies if this is a "duplicate" thread
So I found my old Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (Model GT-P5113 in Samsung ROM, identified as Galaxy Tab 2 in CyanogenMod) in a cabinet doing nothing, so I thought I would flash CyanogenMod on it and get some use out of it. And so I did; I flashed the nightly build of CM 13 in the "espresso wifi" image. Now, that worked just fine, but when I tried to flash open gapps (open_gapps-arm-6.0-nano-20161217.zip to be exact), I got some sort of boot loop; the device starts and gets into the App Preparer thing (pardon my ignorance) and begins preparing the google apps, and once it does all 16 apps, it starts preparing some other cyanogen mod apps, or at least I believe they are cyanogen mod apps, and then the app preparer just closes, and the boot animation restarts. If I wait long enough, it will once again get to the app preparer and begin flashing 2 apps, I could not see the first one, and the 2nd was the Google app. It would then begin flashing the cyanogen mod apps and then it would close, and the cycle would restart. I flashed Gapps right after flashing cyanogenmod; I did NOT boot into the rom upon installing open gapps. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? I will provide more information if it is needed. All help is appreciated.
You should only flash gapps RIGHT AFTER you flash CM13. If you flashed it after Cm13 boots up, you will face some issues. (Like bootloops, force closes, etc)

Hi, Lightracer, thanks for the reply! I did not boot up the tablet after installing CyanogenMod; however the same result occurs whether I flash it with or without a boot up in between (I needed to reflash CM multiple times)

What happens if you let it complete rebuilding the ART cache (app preparer)? Does it do that everytime? Also, did you do a clean flash? (Wiping System, data, cache, art cache, and then flashing the rom? I never had issues like that with installing gapps :silly:

thats the cause of your problem. wrong twrp version. go to andi34.github.io and download the latest common twrp (3.0.2-8). choose the zip. you can install it with your current twrp. then reboot back into recovery and reinstall rom and gapps.

That worked, thanks! I was initially following CyanogenMod's guide for the specific Galaxy Tab 2 Models (P5100,P5110/P5113), which included older CM images and the older TWRP, but flashed the espresso wifi image upon realizing that the guide was out of date. Also, the newest version of TWRP I could find for the Galaxy Tab 2 was version 3.0.0.0, but it still worked fine.

You could download the common twrp which works for every samsung galaxy tab 2 model. The newest version is 3.0.2-8 which is found on andi34.github.io under recoveries. This could be useful if you want to flash newer roms.
