[Q] Multiple issues on Xperia U CM 10 - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hello everyone,
First of all, I'd like to thank you all for the help you've already given me (unknowingly). I have been using this forum a lot the past few days, as well as checking out multiple YouTube videos. These all helped me out tremendously in the adventure I undertook in order to boost the performance of my phone.
I've already encountered numerous issues with my phone in the process and like most beginners, I've also had a few moments where I thought "Okay, it finally happened - it's dead". However, I somehow managed to revive it time after time. Don't worry though - this is not a thread where I claim my phone to be bricked. But I do have a few questions which most of you have probably already answered here and there. If that's the case, I truly apologize. Please know that I tried hard to find all the answers myself, but that I have reached a dead end.
-----
Yesterday, I finally installed CM 10 on my Xperia U. Why? Because I did not quite like the Sony UI and my phone was seriously under-performing battery-wise. Next to that, I really seemed to like the stock android interface (at least from afar). Hence, I downloaded the FXP CM10 from the official FXP website (cm-10-20131224-FXP-kumquat.zip). I must say that the functionality of this ROM is way better than Sony's original UI. The options you have for setting up the device, the way you can respond to incoming messages (read, quick reply, ...), the widget for messaging, etc. It would've been perfect even, if not for these issues:
1. The camera is inverted. Very strange, as I read that people were complaining about the time it takes to start up the camera app, but not that the camera was inverted. I thought that that issue was fixed, but apparently not.
2. I cannot seem to change the layout of the keyboard - an issue with which I am willing to live.
3. I can't add a corporate account. When I set up my mail account, it works like a charm. However, when I want to link an account to import my contacts, it claims that it can't connect to the server. On the internet I found out that you have to set the server to m.google.com - but then it says I don't have permission to sync with this server. I do not have Gapps (Google Apps) installed, could that be the reason?
4. Yesterday, my phone didn't want to unlock on two occasions - it just didn't respond. However, today I haven't had any issues so no problem for me.
Now maybe all of this can be fixed rapidly. You see, before I installed CM 10, I actually wanted to install the FXP 216 CM 9. According to Mark Sohan (YouTube account), this was the most stable ROM for an Xperia U. However, I can't seem to get my hands on it. I can't find it on the FXP site either (no longer supported?).
So my first question would be: Where can I download CM9 Kumquat (FXP 216)?
My second question would be: is it possible to fix issue 1 and 3? If so, how?
And if you would no longer advice CM 9, which one would you advice? Where can I find a (stock) ROM which works perfectly well with my Xperia U? Please note that I am looking for a stable (FXP) ROM, not necessarily the most recent one. As long as it's stable and offers the same functionality as CM 10, I'd be more than happy!
Information about the installation, might be useful:
I flashed the Sony stock ROM (.54)
In fastboot mode, I installed the boot.img from the Kumquat file using Flashtool.
Booted the phone, went in CWM and cleared the data/cache/something else - forgot name - might have also done a factory reset and then installed the zip file from the "SD card".
My phone is rooted, unlocked and has CWM.
Thank you all a lot in advance. Hopefully these issues can be solved, so that I can fully enjoy this ROM.
Kind regards,
Simen

@simensimen
FXP 216 is not found, according to this statement, focused on improving everything in CM 9
This build is nearly complete and should make it into the 9.0 final release on time.
Enjoy!

try install other keyboad (googke keyboard mayby)
Google keyboard
only developers can fix it
from what I've read FXP 10 has several errors, and there has been no development on that, it is best that you move to another ROM, but you have to open your mind and not only we want FXP, because there are good ROM Developer.
I recommend this

Hello,
Thank you very much for your answer.
The first link you refer to, is one that I already knew. The links go to the FXP download page and the one for CM 9 Kumquat is not available.
I had just found that link for the camera fix myself as well and it worked. That's great. However, to me, the biggest issue is °3.
Can you tell me if none of my issues exist in the ROM that you recommend? If so, I'll install it straight away!
Thanks again!
Kind regards,
Simen

is a pleasure to help colleague
I've never had to use corporate accounts, so I have an answer to that, so I can say you that it is very stable, everything works fine when I had installed had great performance for me, I had no problems syncing my emails normal.

1. Download ROM.zip and the Gapps package of your choice (links in 2nd post). Copy them to your sdcard.
2. MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP, dont be lazy
3. Clean up your sdcard (optional, recommended for clean base)
Delete every folder in sdcard/Android/data
Delete sdcard/MIUI (Only present if you come from another MIUI ROM)
This will delete all data for all apps! This will delete all your MIUI themes/wallpapers!
You can backup your wallpapers from sdcard/MIUI/wallpapers before you delete it!
4. (For ICS Users ONLY, if you are already on a jellybean rom, go to STEP 5!)
Extract the ROM.zip file on your computer and flash the boot.img with Flashtool or Fastboot
If you dont do this first, the ROM will not boot!
If you dont know how to do this or you dont have Flashtool or Fastboot installed, search the forum...
still problems? ask here ...
5. Boot to Recovery
6. Wipe Data/Factory Reset - Wipe Cache - Wipe Dalvik-Cache - Format /system
7. Install ROM.zip
8. Reboot
9. Go through setup process, then let it settle for a while!
10. Reboot to Recovery
11. Flash Gapps.zip
12. Wipe Cache - Wipe Dalvik Cache
13. Reboot one last time
This ROM has the same bugs as CM10 by FXP
So if you encounter a specific bug, you can always seach the dev thread first and see if it is fixed: LINK
- [BUG] Auto-Brightness doesnt work, drains battery, turn it off
- [BUG] WiFi hotspot does not work
- [BUG] APNs: Turn on Airplane Mode, then turn it back off, now it should work
- [BUG] Auto-Rotation: Turn off Auto-Rotation, then turn it back on, now it should work
- [BUG] All options under settings/sound/system will cause lag
- [BUG] Leds do not blink/stay constantly on. Issue with Phantom kernel.
+ MIUI Weather App:
Original MIUI Weather app only works in China!
Use Burgerz Weather App! Free from Play Store
+ Illumination bar fixer:
Use apk from here to get it working. It is turned off by default. Thanks @jioleight for the tip!
» Turn on MIUI Power Save Mode (Settings/Battery)
» Turn off WiFi-in-sleep (Settings/WiFi/Advanced)
» Setup CPU governor and I/O scheduler and Frequencies
Use a free app like No-frills CPU Control or, better, use an app which supports profiles depending on Battery percentage, like SetCPU.
Here is an example setup I use for SetCPU
For Battery between 100%-20%: Gov: wheatley IO: row @200-1000Mhz
For Battery between 20%-8%: Gov: lionheart IO: row @200-800Mhz
For Battery between 8%-0%: Gov: lionheart IO: row @200-400Mhz
For Screen-Off: Gov: powersave IO: row @200-200Mhz
I hope this helps :fingers-crossed:

So i guess i am the only owner of a Xperia P that loves MIUI and wants to discuss it :angel:
And I am also so excited for MIUI v5
So if no MIUI user is joining this, maybe the devs can share some info on how it is going with new builds, patches, progress?
I have the feeling that since jb is here, a lot more devs show up in the XP dev section, like @sijav
And we also got @dimon2242 and @Dron_GTR. Our russian friends :good:
I also dont want to spam the dev threads, so i wanna bring this up here. I was thinking miui v5 would be better based on CM10 than on stock rom. @sijav said stock would be better.
I wanted to mention that on MIUI v4 there were features on MIUI that didnt work on stock, like the CRT-off animation. Also it was a lot slower and more bloated because of the sony stuff running in the background and also MIUI at the same time. Also, isnt patchrom build to work with CM sources?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
well I said stock is better because the bugs will be much less than CMs (or at least Radio will work, videos will run smoothly and tags can be used! )
compare to CRT-off animation I personally believe the radio alone is much more important than that
I have booted and have to say It was as smooth as a butter (really smooth) we can even remove the bloatwares as we want!
I am so excited on MIUI that's why I'm doing this everyday and patchrom is created for MIUI to create MIUI and it can be either based on cyanogen or stock rom,
and it doesn't need a source, any full CWM recovery zip rom will do
And thanks about this thread, It's a good one

I guess u are right
my main concern was performance but when all the Sony apps are gone, it could run just fine. also if I remember correctly @munjeni on the xperia go ran into problems he couldn't fix when building v4 based on CM9.1. that's why he switched to stock in the first place.
but also it meant that CRT-off was off the table cause it's kernel stuff. and it doesn't have to be like that on CM10. keep in mind that fxp are constantly improving their rom, while stock will stay as it is, for better or worse

if u want to, please share some more, I'm really interested, like which miui version is your rom based on? since u got it booting, u are now patching smalis? how is it going? ur having a hard time?
I really appreciate your efforts and can't wait for your first release

Yeah it booted but imagine no Wi-Fi and no network!
My first goal is to get network working so I'm working at telephony smalis right now (too many conflicts! more learning than doing anything though)
smali is a dalvik virtual machine code which is so close to machine machine compare to human language looking at it may cause a great headache! atleast the methods are highly like the java codes so I can make a really small scene from it!
well I download the latest patchrom_miui in 19 days ago so it is for May 16, 2013 not sure about the version though but when I get this rom working, for a public release I'll use the latest MIUI apks and changes
problems are so much, the first thing is some resolution configuration are wrong you can see the corners isn't right and a stupid dark highlight in bottom in settings, in massages there's an empty space between header and base! I'll try to fix these resolutions problems as soon as I could fix the telephony (and Wi-Fi ofcourse)!
I want to share my works but have no IDEA how to upload my files to github! (if anyone is able to tell me I will do it, however my internet connection has downloads limits, It will be free trough 1 to 8 AM local time so I have to upload these in those times!)
about hard time, my exams will end in next weeks so I will have more free time after that, but until then I can't have time!
We need MIU V5
Actually I use MIUI GTR on my XP from a long time, we need more interest from the developers, the Xperia P is the most forgotten phone, XP has more capacity than many others, and already others phones like xperia U and Sola has miu V5, I can't believe that happens to us, if up to me I change my phone for a xiaomi, because I really love MIUI but I can't find it, I think MIUI is the best Android layer of all companies in the world, samsung, sony, lg, motorola, htc sucks!!!! Wake Up Please... We need MIUI V5 on XP

thats bad, I read that in your dev thread.
So you are trying CM10 base now?
Maybe this can help you? This guy is trying to port MIUI v5 based on CM10 to the Xperia U. From what I could gather from that thread, he has phone/network running, but has problems with themes and also wifi. Look here: (ROM)(PORT)miui v5 base cm10 on xu
For theme bug, this seems to be the solution:
VocaloidBoy said:
for theme Bug may be you forget insert file invoke-as from MIUI V5 to system/xbin/ for fix it I think just put that file to system/xbin and put this string set_perm(0, 0, 06755, "/system/xbin/invoke-as"); to updater-script

Yes, I tried out every new build that came to our forums, but I always came back to MIUI GTR, cause it is the best port of MIUI v4 for me. Others, like the stock based one were too laggy, and cm9 based stuff had too many bugs, like the "wifi-off during sleep" bug, that was never fixed in cm9.
And you are right, we dont have alot of devs here for our xperia P so we need to make sure the few we have, stay with us
You sounded a bit too demanding in your post, maybe it was unintentional... Dont forget that our devs do this in their spare time and get nothing in return for their work. So hammering on the thanks button every time a dev posts something for our device is a good thing to start

Yes, I know it my friend, I always push the thanks button ,I just got carried away by the emotion of the moment, and know that MIUIv5 is so close to us, Also I wanted to ask you something more, Using MIUI GTR 3.2.22 One day my WIFI stopped working at all too and I re-flash kernel, and nothing. I ultimately had to re-flash the rom too, but it seems to me a very tedious process every time this happens to me, so... there's no another solution for that bug???

were you able to log in with your xiaomi account? without one you cannot download anything since they locked down the store...
keep an eye on the other sub-forums, many devs now working on v5, so maybe someone solved something before you. no need to do work twice
also I wonder what's up with @dimon2242 and @Dron_GTR? are you in contact with them?

I am with you dude. I just wish I could help patching the bugs, but I am just a very enthusiastic MIUI user and fan
MIUI GTR 3.2.22? can you link me to the version you are using? because I am not sure if you use the same one as me.
well, wifi problem: I used a wifi app to see if the hardware is still working and getting a signal. all was fine, good signal. But as soon as I tried to connect I always got the message "can't connect to network with poor Internet connection" or something like that, although that was definitely not the case. deep in the advanced wifi settings on stock roms there is an option to set if you want to connect to such networks, but I couldn't find this on MIUI.
so you also experienced exactly that?
I didn't make a logcat cause me personally can't fix it and development had sadly stopped, so no use for that logcat...
EDIT: Edited OP to make it more useful. Added MIUI rom reference for our Xperia P I will keep it updated and if you have more ideas for this thread, just let me know! :angel:
EDIT2: @sijav have you seen this port and this port of v5 on the XU section? First one has wifi working

I told earlier that no wifi neither network or bluetooth is working so that means no connectovity to outer world
but looks like the themes won't do any hurts,
I'm making great success on getting network working but after I update my miui folder in patchrom to the latest I encounter countless problem that couldn't figure how to fix it,
after update I'm currently stuck at upgrading massage and also no usb connectivity when on boot animation or at upgrading or at recovery so really I can't find the problem and really not sure what the heck should I do!
about contacting well I believe people have their own problems me too, that's why I'm doing it so slow!
Dron_GTR already told me he wants to help but he has a great deal with his college projects so he can't do any help
about wifi I think I've got where is the problem, but I can't even boot this rom to make sure if the problem will solve or not neither adb is working to give me working information!
about your problems with wifi!
Just delete the dhcp folder under /data/misc/ folder! (you need a root explorer or something like that!
In miui V5 we have option to turn this avoid poor internet connection on or off!!
about those ports I have seen the second port and already made something of that but for first port thnx and will find out what will I get but before I make this stupid USB connectivity on I really can't do something

thanks so much for your work!!
maybe stay on the older patchrom folder then for now? you could always update to a newer version later once you got that one working...
and great to hear you will get help
just take your time, no need to hurry, there are more important things in life than a rom, I will wait patiently

let's see if this happens again, because wifi works fine since last re-flash. but it was also fine the first time, then it suddenly stopped working.

oh well yes, I understood you, at least he said he WILL help you if he gets the time, so better than nothing I guess...
And believe me I really feel with you, it sounds almost like you have to start from scratch
by the way: one thing I noticed while looking at your github page: codename for Xperia P is nypon, not nypone...
As I don't have the abilities to help you on fixing stuff, all I can do is upload this image of a silly goose, which will hopefully put a smile on your face and keep you motivated
Wi-Fi issues
stothegee said:
I am with you dude. I just wish I could help patching the bugs, but I am just a very enthusiastic MIUI user and fan
MIUI GTR 3.2.22? can you link me to the version you are using? because I am not sure if you use the same one as me.
well, wifi problem: I used a wifi app to see if the hardware is still working and getting a signal. all was fine, good signal. But as soon as I tried to connect I always got the message "can't connect to network with poor Internet connection" or something like that, although that was definitely not the case. deep in the advanced wifi settings on stock roms there is an option to set if you want to connect to such networks, but I couldn't find this on MIUI.
so you also experienced exactly that?
I didn't make a logcat cause me personally can't fix it and development had sadly stopped, so no use for that logcat...
EDIT: Edited OP to make it more useful. Added MIUI rom reference for our Xperia P I will keep it updated and if you have more ideas for this thread, just let me know! :angel:
EDIT2: @sijav have you seen this port and this port of v5 on the XU section? First one has wifi working

Good news MIUI friends! @percy_g2 seems to be willing to help @sijav with MIUI v5!
Lets hope for the best, @munjeni said his patchrom build for the GO is 80% done, rest is smali patching. At least all sources are online, so they can work together nicely

Feedback - [DEV][ROM][4.4.2] [CM11] KITKAT for LG-P500[WIP][VER-1]
I've been using this KITKAT Rom (from 27. December) for 5 days now and I'm really impressed of it - thx goes to mukulsoni and hephappy.
My feedback here, since I'm not allowed to post on a dev thread:
- Battery backup is acceptable with 2 days for me (Wifi off, Location off, low usage)
- Installed Calendar from PlayStore and calendar syncronization is working
- If you do not want to use Hangeout as you default sms client you can install 8sms from the PlayStore instead (which I did)
- Not Working:
- Wifi Tethering (@mukulsoni please add to not working list)
- voice search does not work for me (maybe someone else knows how to get it working?)
- overall performance (smartassV2, 240-710) is good but not snappy (I'm using a class 10 8GB sdcard).
Conclusion:
 @all who are interested in KITKAT on our old P500, give the linked ROM a try - you won't be disappointed.

Did not like the Dec 27 build.
I am running the Omni preview which is more or less cm-11. Favorably impressed.
Offline voice search will not work on our armv6 device. Thanks Google.
Online voice does work. Use voice dictation or swype/dragon to get it into google search. Must tap search, but ...
Actually, something before getting the voice is what armv6 stops. I cannot reproduce how I got there, but I had it actually, init, take my voice and get results!! Once, just once. So ... who knows?

I took this because this is what is being developed right now, where fixes are going.
On-line voice does work. Go to settings->language&input->voice recognition. Since you are likely running with Google Search around, you will see two (count 'em) google options here. Choose the other one.
If you only see one, you need to install the old VoiceSearch.
Feedback - [DEV][ROM][4.4.2] [CM11] KITKAT for LG-P500[WIP][VER-3]
Changes between Ver1 and Ver3 I encountered
- battery consumption seems to be improved a little bit
- stock SMS/MMS app included now (no need for Hangout or 8sms)
- "national roaming" support seems to be gone now (new MVNO Settins are unclear for me - any hints are welcome)
- camera problems
- autofocus does not work anymore - focus does not go green (worked on Ver1)
- choosing HDR option leeds to FC of camera app (to disable HDR you have to clean App Settings)
Trying to record a video freezed the phone (gave me an FC on Ver1) - had to remove the battery.
Experiences from other users are welcome.

Back to my update problem: I already checked md5 hash and in Addition I repartioned and formatted my sdcard, formatted system and tried to flash via recovery (ver from 16th january) - but same error.
Is it possible that system of this rom is almost full and that some memory blocks of my system storage is dead? It is just an assumption or guess, but if too few memory could cause such an upgrade failure, which apps are secure to remove?
Once again, thx for any hints.

[Q] SK17i WIFI STILL NOT WORKING

Hello, I have a rooted xperia mini pro SK17i and I'm stuck to the CyanogenMod ROM 7.2.0 which seems to be the only one to work with my device.
I have written to you in the past to ask: "Why the wifi stops working if I try to install the cm-9.0.0, or 9.1.0-cm, or 10 cm-.........? ?? "
but no one has ever found a solution or the solution just did not work ...
I know from what I see in the forums that mine is a very common problem.
Now, years later, I ask again the same thing: "What should I do to install a more recent rom without losing the wifi?"
hello

wifi is defend by your kernel install.. try use another kernel like cm10 or cm11 and make full wipe n install your rom again.. or switch to another kernel and rom..
When I installed the cm-9.0.0 I used its kernel and I did the same with the 9.1 and the 10 ... did not work ..
But maybe I did not understand. You say, for example, if I install the 9.1 should I try Kernell of 10? Does it make sense?
Please........ :crying:
Does WiFi work on Stock ICS 0.587 firmware ?
I am ashamed but I do not know what it is ...
I'm no expert, I have not yet figured out a lot of things ... I'm still learning ...
I followed a guide to root my device and install the cyanogen rom.
If I look in the device info read:
Kernel: 2.6.32.9-FXP root @ ubuntu # 6
Android version: 2.3.7
This is all I know ...
Before roottare the phone I upgraded the original operating system of the phone and the wifi stopped working.
Precisely for this reason I decided to install the CyanogenMod ROM: to try to recover the wifi.
The cm 7.2.0 did it. The newer versions like 9, 9.1 did not work ....
My question is .... why??? it is obvious that it is not a hardware problem ...Because if it were so it would not work even with cm 7.2.0 ...
I'd like to update my device to the latest stable CyanogenMod rom for my device which is 9.1 ..
But I can not because the wifi stops working ... Heeeeelp!!

i think you ALLWAYS forget to flah the needed kernel. (& allways have this old GB kernel) so only wifi works with this.
you should make sure you following the install EXACTLY.
also cm 9.1 is old like hell. this is also no stable release. at least i wouldnt call it like that.
Look for LX (Legacy xperia) which provides cm10.1 , 10.1 (jb) & 11 (kitkat) this is far more stable. also many bugs fixed there.
cm 9(.1) is abdonned long time
First of all .. Thank you so much for your help.
Ok .. I'll try .. I'm just worried because in thr LegacyXperia site I see a lot of bugs in the Working / not working lists..

ok good luck this time all works incl. wifi (should work 100% if doing all right)
i think the best is to test a rom 1st so you can say how it fits your usage . just a few tips:
-use minimal gapps after flashing rom
-LX 10.1 has a release candidatefrom march this year its a pretty stable daily driver. dont use the 10.2 release theres nothing better..
-maybe also you can test cm11 if want, but keep in mind 19/3 is the last PMEM build which is based on old kernel, will probably deliver the stablest experience. IMO the latest release is also very good but this contains some bug like the ANDROID_OS wakeclock (need power on phone on charger to avoid this) & its still in development (so its more for dev users)
for the buglist:
CM10.1:
- maps flickering its true but fixed in CM11
- wifi gets drops sometimes .. but it work at all
- camera is not good quality/buggy bcuz of driver lacks (also no 720p video)
CM11:
- sometimes wifi a lil bit buggy but its minimal. works like a charm for me
- 720p video is working here
BOTH:
-sometimes bluetooth battery drain after using it (need reboot to fix) i not face this is issue when i send something to friend.... (works normal..)
- NO FM radio, HDMI port will not work (if you have one) & ANT+ (no drivers)
good luck for you
Yesterday I installed the CM11 and ... it works!!!!
The wifi works! :good:and I like the rom.:good::good: ... so ... thanks a lot bejunk!!!! thanks thanks a lot!!!!! You are a great!!

np bro im happy you have now good rom & working wifi
just 1 thing if you use the latest version (02/07) it has a bug that you get android os battery drain. you can solve this by:
-power off phone
-plug in into charger & wait till you see the battery logo
-power on . done
Thanks again! The only problems with this rom are:
- the phone takes a long time to boot. Almost two minutes ... every time ..
- When the device starts up many icons disappear and others are in different positions ... I do not know why ...
Is there a way to fix these problems? Maybe I did something wrong during the installation ...

There's a Q&A section for that ROM. Anyway, long boot time should be fixed in the upcoming release. The simplest way to fix disappearing icons problem is to install another launcher. Hope I've helped.

[x86][GApps] FrankenGApps 20140826 4.4.x *UPDATED! Stable! Universal!*

DO NOT FLASH THIS ON A TOUCHWIZ ROM. AOSP BASED ONLY
This is a custom GApps package I created to work with x86 devices (namely, our tab) as the normal GApps packages available are arm-only. (and no, to those who would ask, it's not as simple as downloading PA-GApps and swapping the update binary. The actual files therein are NOT x86 compatible, namely, the libs.)
UPDATE 1: With the release of 4.4. for the P5210, I am pleased to announce that this is now a full, complete, stable GApps package
It contains everything found in the PA-GApps stock zip plus:
-Hackers keyboard
-Root browser
-Xperia home
note that Hacker's keyboard and Xperia home are just there in case google keyboard / google home don't work out of the box. I don't anticipate any problems, but just to be sure. After some feedback / testing i'll remove these if people want. Root browser however is here to stay.
UPDATE 2:
As of the 20140823 build, this is now a UNIVERSAL x86 GApps package, meaning it will work on ANY x86 device running 4.4.x with zero tinkering to the zip. I did this by using a slightly modified pa-gapps updater-script coupled with an x86 update-binary.
UPDATE 3:
The 20140826 build is mostly bug fixes. The updater-script in the 20140823 build was broken. This is now fixed. Google + was broken. This is also fixed.
Google keyboard was broken. This too, is now fixed.
Tested this build myself. All is well.
For those who want a ROM to try this with, head over to @moonbutt74 's thread "odds, ends tests". He posted a successful 4.4.4 build from a few days ago on i think the 4th or 5th post (though it is by NO MEANS dd ready. We're working on it)
DOWNLOAD LINK IS BELOW.
If you want to use this for any reason other than personal use, ask me first, unless you just want to include a link on your ROM thread. If you do want to include a link in your ROM thread, link to this thread, not the download link below.
Download link:FrankenGApps-x86-20140826
old builds:
20140823 build:
FrankenGApps-x86-20140823.zip
The updater script in this build is broken. On top of that, if you fix it yourself, google + and google keyboard are borked.
20140814 build:
FrankenGApps-x86-20140814.zip
This build only works with the tab 3 10.1.
Old legacy hackey build:
FrankenGApps-x86-20140813.zip
there is absolutely no reason to flash the 20140813 build over newer builds. The 20140813 build is an unstable / hackey 4.2 gapps port, I'm just posting it for reference purposes. Naturally this build is unsupported. Please download the new build(s) from OP.
if i flash the build of 14th then i stuck on samsung boot logo. firmware was stock rooted deodexed 4.4.2. i have tryed it twice but always stuck on boot logo.

@evilspawnas
 @ghforlife
Why did you flash this on a touchwiz rom?
This zip is meant for aosp based ROMs like cm11. (I tested this package on @moonbutt74's wip cm11 build, works like a charm)
Besides, TW Roms have GApps built in

Oh, sorry, but all the other devices have cm 11, it´s like my normal behaviour to flash gapps... shame on me
Just updated to 20140823.
As of now, this GApps package is universally compatible with all x86 devices running 4.4.x. Zero tinkering to the zip necessary.
Just updated to 20140826. This build fixes updater-script, google keyboard, and google +. Read "update 3" in OP for more info.
Nice
Another stone in building our road to CM11. Thanks.
I know many will used this update.
To be honest, I am forced to used the market, but try to stay away from C I A applications. I am sorry did I say C I A. My apologies it is the Alzheimer, I mean Google.

so how would one go about installing this on a dell xps12 running intels official haswell build of kitkat?

Hey brother don't dare to flash it.... It's not for a Touchwiz rom like pimpdroid or Cagrom., It's for AOSP rom like Omni rom , AOKP , CM11 , AICP etc....
Sent from my GT-S6802 using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks for the gapps, working on my 3830 AOSP rom.

DO NOT FLASH THIS ON A TOUCHWIZ ROM. AOSP BASED ONLY
This is a custom GApps package I created to work with x86 devices (namely, our tab) as the normal GApps packages available are arm-only. (and no, to those who would ask, it's not as simple as downloading PA-GApps and swapping the update binary. The actual files therein are NOT x86 compatible, namely, the libs.)
UPDATE 1: With the release of 4.4. for the P5210, I am pleased to announce that this is now a full, complete, stable GApps package
It contains everything found in the PA-GApps stock zip plus:
-Hackers keyboard
-Root browser
-Xperia home
note that Hacker's keyboard and Xperia home are just there in case google keyboard / google home don't work out of the box. I don't anticipate any problems, but just to be sure. After some feedback / testing i'll remove these if people want. Root browser however is here to stay.
UPDATE 2:
As of the 20140823 build, this is now a UNIVERSAL x86 GApps package, meaning it will work on ANY x86 device running 4.4.x with zero tinkering to the zip. I did this by using a slightly modified pa-gapps updater-script coupled with an x86 update-binary.
UPDATE 3:
The 20140826 build is mostly bug fixes. The updater-script in the 20140823 build was broken. This is now fixed. Google + was broken. This is also fixed.
Google keyboard was broken. This too, is now fixed.
Tested this build myself. All is well.
For those who want a ROM to try this with, head over to @moonbutt74 's thread "odds, ends tests". He posted a successful 4.4.4 build from a few days ago on i think the 4th or 5th post (though it is by NO MEANS dd ready. We're working on it)
DOWNLOAD LINK IS BELOW.
If you want to use this for any reason other than personal use, ask me first, unless you just want to include a link on your ROM thread. If you do want to include a link in your ROM thread, link to this thread, not the download link below.

Questions:
1. Does this work with LineageOS 14.1 [Android 7.1.2]
2. Where are the instructions on how to install this?

These gapps are 6 years old and for older versions of android. Go to opengapps.org for android 7.1.2 based gapps.
And also why do you need instructions? Same as all gapps just flash the zip after flashing the rom

I have a tab 3 10.1 WiFi so if anything pops up around these threads I always have a look.
The tablet is still working fine for me without any gapps on it as I've found gapps are extremely heavy on such an old tablet. Instead I opted for a microg installation and it works perfectly (even being able to play games like bullet force or fwd assault) but i mostly use it for reading and cooking and that kind of stuff which it is perfect for.

Owhh, i see. I put this rom on my tab: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-3/development-10/rom-lineageos-14-1-t3587761
It does lag sometimes, but i removed some of the GApps it came with. I mean, the second i removed playstore some other Google apps stopped working so i had to delete them too. It's a bit better, but i dont play games on it, it's still laggy i should've chosen another ROM but i guess this is fine. Which ones are you using? If you want we can talk in discord, or here if you want, which ever way you fele comfortable. I can share the apps i have and etc, since we have the same tablet, finally i found someone in 2020 having the same device as i have! Ha. I'm still here, so if you reply and i wont answer, i will answer later, i have schedule to follow that's why
Ill wait for your response, anywhere, if you want dm me here, chat in this thread or check my discord, send a friend request and tell me here ur name so I'd accept it. You can also find me in the XDA discord server.

Hey, where have you been?

AICP lollipop rant for LG G2

Take this down if im not allowed to post, sorry... I just havent seen or read anything else new with the lollipop for our lg g2... Im not feeling LS and CM12 is not my thing.... I like slimroms but they havent uploaded anything new...the usual daily driver is mokee
Then i saw this!
know its a test build but this is by far the best lollipop on my phone D800 in my opinion. Daniel GravesenMODERATOR has been working on the build. All credit goes to him. I cant wait for a stable version. https://plus.google.com/app/basic/stream/z13szlrzhyfec3aom04cedf4vwrjxb24gtw0k please use at your own risk. Dont blame me for using this TEST version and dont go asking Daniel for help...you should know what your doing hoe. Lol:silly:
After second install ive got everything working except the browser( fc, deleted, installed chrome beta). And switched europe to north america on the gps config using fasterfix app. I also did use system app remover to uinstall the browser and other google apps...
The usual factory wipe and cache, etc... When i installed this rom on my D800 i did use KK_Baseband_D800.zip first then rom the gapps then D800_KKMODEM_AOSP.zip(fixes auto rotate). Reboot. My first start up took about 5 mins. Youll see the aicp logo then a black dark screen for a minute.... Success, welcome screen. In my opinion youll want to let the phone sit for at least 5 minutes without touching it then reboot.
In advance, i dont know anything about any other model except for D800. So i cant assist.
Came from slimkat to optimusG3 to cloudyg3 to mokee now as a daily driver 0.1 unofficial
If you found my info useful. Hit thanks
I can't access it? I mean the download page.
@martinez5241
Maybe we have a different idea of the word rant, but it's normally used negatively, which your post does not seem to be lol. I agree it runs the best for me as well.
@tuan2195
Its best to follow them on g+ versus XDA, and I did see someone post a few min ago that the page was down for them as well. Might be down for maintenance or something.
