If you download the firmware ASOP Master off of the google firmware site you can get the very plain ASOP with no google apps but very limited source material. Is there a place where I can get links to this ASOP and install files through it that way? Like pre load ring tones, apks, etc?

Hi,
Yeah I'm noob (video is realy good )
Question is, how to strip down/change gapps package, so I can install only google play/android market with out another stuff like pico, tts, maps etc on costum rom???
Phone: Xperia Ray
Rom: 4pdarepack ics
Kernel: from aire
I unlocked bootloader, after choose best rom for me bla bla bla
Reason why I did it, was em how to put it...it is pain in ass to read all these notifications lika Google will sen data about your browsing and location bla bla bla... So I chose 4pdarepack rom and kernel and smile was back on my face...till I wanted to set up my favorite app's...ok I need Google Play or android market app... but only way to get that is to install gapps package...wich is 40-80mb! I thinket...are you kidding me? I was so happy to se that rom takes only 45mb, and now I need to install all garbage back?
I don't need anything from all that, only market. I have searched for many days, market alternatives, deleting apk from zip etc... so far seem that all people is flashing roms, wich is clear of that stuff and after install it back
No info wich files is crushial for market to run etc, practikaly no info at all about gapps zip striping etc...

so there are files that are in the gapps package to have google communicate efficiently. My best option for you is to delete the apks... and it looks like your aware of it, so how did that work for you? all you need is the vending.apk.
edit:
have you tried just installing the play/market apk?
veding or phonesky(in newest gapps) alone isn't working alone, seems there is another apk wich needed, if I install Google play store as normal apk, not with recovery, Store is quiting after few seconds...
I belive there is some services, framework and another apk's witch is needed to run store. But so far no success.
If I install all gapps from CW it ok...but again there if tons of stuff siting in Ram and Rom, wich I don't like.
p.s so far I found gaosp gapps light/ultra light, wich would be nice, if only it where not for Samsung Galaxy
hmm I know it needs market updater apk as well. but I have a light gapps package ive modded for you but I cant upload it since im at work with a super disabled pc. only hosting site that 'works' for me is dev-host... but I just tried uploading the 15mb file I have and the dam site froze my crappy work pc... ill try later when I get home if I remember. but I think the file I have will work for you. I can take screen shots and up them here so you can see what I have kept and copy that layout to see if that will work for you???
That would be great.
So, any news about that one?
I wonder why this isn't a mainstream issue?
I'd like to know he answer to your question.
My phone also closes Play Store when installed alone, without Gapps pack ever having seen my CM10.1
I'm not aware if installation will succeeed if i just go amok and delete some apks from GApps.
Please could anybody pack the least necessary framework/service with phonesky.apk?
I've got a custom rom which includes some non-stock launchers I can not uninstall the normal way, they're buggy and I rather not flash the rom again.
Is there any way to get rid of the launchers together with some other preinstalled apps via the use of ie a file manager with root access?
Or do I have to boot into recovery and muck about with aroma and other things just to get the job done?
Also, is there a way to install stock JB launcher from a Gapps package, if so, which would be the proper one to pick?
I'm running 4.1.2, downloaded gapps 20121011 which seemingly did not include it.
Thanks a bunch to anyone willing to give a headsup on this question!

After installing go to languages and input and check Android Key board
Hope it will be useful.
Download and Install
Now, getting it on your device is going to be easy for some of you, and less easy for others. You'll need to be on Android 4.0+, to start.
If you're on a phone with a UI overlay that has the stock keyboard disabled (eg, Samsung TouchWiz, HTC Sense, Sony), you can just download the apk below- no root required. To install, make sure you have "install from unknown sources" enabled in your phone settings, and after installation, go into your phone's keyboard settings and enable "Android keyboard." Then, you can switch to the new keyboard. This may also work on some "stock" Android custom ROMs - but it will not work on stock Android builds distributed by Google.
Get the apk here: http://d-h.st/XuS
If the apk doesn't work, you're running a phone that is either A.) running stock Android (as in, AOSP), or B.) running software that has the stock Android keyboard as an option, you'll need to download this ZIP file, and flash it in recovery. That also means you're going to need root. as you'll be writing to /system/apps. Before you do, though, either back up the stock keyboard (if you don't know how, you probably shouldn't be doing this) or create a full image backup, just in case. Here's that ZIP file:

SO after rooting my OnePlus i had to flash install my google apps, unfortunatly the default messenger app that comes stock with the one plus is also gone, this is very important for me because its the only messenger app(from my knowledge) that can be customized with my purchased themes i have. Changing messaging themes does not work on 3rd party messenger applications so i cant download any from play store either! ANY HELP?
No one?
A little more information, please? What ROM were you flashing? What gapps? Etc etc
Wipe, flash your rom that includes stock messenger, install nano pa gapps (google play services and google search), install other needed gapps by google play.

okay to summarize, i installed cm-12 on my one plus, after that i literally had 10 apps. i used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/par...apps-official-to-date-pa-google-apps-t2943900
to get all my google services, it does come with a messenger app but it is not the stock one.
I wanted the stock messenger app that comes with the OnePlus it is not in the play-store
hope i can get some help thank you
note its not just the default messenger app i wanted there are some small apps like torchlight that come with the one plus that are great and not 3rd party
Did you make a backup of CM11S before flashing CM12? If so, just restore your backup and you can extract the apps using a root-enabled file explorer.
I think, what he's talking about is the stock 4.4.4 messenger. Just download a 4.4.4 ROM and extract the apk from it, and then install it on CM12.
Sorry for the Noob-lines...I flash roms many years now.. For Nexus 5 I used recently some roms that they had prebuiled Gapps in them..So when I finally booted the phone it was clear with Google Messaging app, Google dialer and Google Contacts, Google Chrome, Google Gmail... There where no sign of the stock AOSP apps (like the AOSP email app, AOSP browser, etc). The best of this part is that you have no concern to get rid of them because there wheren' t there.. But the latest builds for all the roms are without prebuilded Gapps and so you have to flash them yourself.. My question is which Gapps should I flash to replace all the AOSP apps with the Google one's?
