samsung galaxy s4 i9500 gapps issue - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI i am new to this thread and I have some serious issue with gapps for cm12.1 OK to my problem...
I successfully flashed cm12.1 nightly latest ver. and have downloaded gapps(arm,5.1,nano) I am using twrp recovery flashed my ROM and gapps successfully and after rebooting I get many errors com.gapps , play services and many more errors like that but whenever I flash my ROM without installing gapps it works fine(with no play sgoogle play services etc) plz help me I am in serious trouble... My phone is s4 non lte plz help

Sounds like you might be trying to use Open Gapps. The Official CM12.1 thread for your phone suggested the TK Gapps found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/tk-gapps-t3116347 - Either mini or micro. They are a bit out dated, but they should work and you can just update once everything is set up.

Not working
Sorry friend it dosent work for me as i had already tried tk gapps and open gapps and pa today but i don know what the problem is just flashed the rom properly 12.1 cm nightly latest its not my first time though..
thx
maybe some one could seriously help me

Could be the recovery you are using. Are you wiping /system partition when reflashing CM + Gapps? You might also look into one of the optimized builds of CM, such as GearCM as well.

yes I am wiping dalvik and everything before flashing the gapps and rom and also I had seen many vids on YouTube regarding cm12.1 on s4 i9500 and downloaded from the YouTube link provided and follow the same procedure as they do but unfortunately I messed up don't know why.....

oh and one thing can you tell me is there any harm if I flash my phone multiple times... any storage disk issues.. like slowing and any ram issues??

i hope this help you:
download the latest cm12.1 for s4
and flash latest twrp recovery for this device
now go to google and search for "open gapps"
and select the open gapps project then
select "arm" and "5.1" and "pico" and download it
then go to device recovery and advanced wipe to system, cache, data and dalvik
and flash the cm first then flash the opengapps good luck

Don't worry flashing roms is very simple process it is only remove files and copy new files
if you flash a new rom even more than 1000 time your device will not be bricked
good luck

As i said installing rom for android device doesn't effect on the device performance
and the never cause any slowing for disks except if the rom you installed was too bad this is another problem
however, don't worry if your device bricked or any else just power it off and boot to download mode then
flash the latest lolllipop 5.0 stock tar.md5 rom and every thing will be ok!
remember DON'T WORRY

[Q] HOX+ International STUCK after Cm10.1 by Lloir

Hi All!
I have an HTC One X+, International. I have decided to try and "play" with it and so I have Unlocked and Rooted and then tried Installing a Custom Rom, based on those instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2213910
Unlock and Root went well, and so installing TWRP (its present).
Then I got here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2067325
After trying to install the ROM (first image then zip - followed the instructions), the device is booting with the CM logo spinning, but then it gives out an "Unfortunately, NFC Service has stopped " error...
Please help!
I tried to go back to the original restore via TWRP - no luck. The HTC screen appears and then stuck in it.

Try and flash another ROM & Image. It appears the ROM might not have been downloaded properly.
BTW what happened after it gave the NFC error? Did you complete the rest of the process and simply restarted the device?
flash the CORRECT kernel! read the op!!!!!!! why do you people not read?! seriously!
full wipe the rom before flashing CM on top of whatever you had before!
the rom works correct! the problem is you
Cant flash another rom

I cant get a new rom to the device - the computer stopped recognizing it and I have no idea how to get a file on it (maybe somehow via the terminal/SDK.bat?).
After it gives the NFC error, there is an "OK' button. I hit it a few times and nothing happens. Then the screen goes off and I cant turn it back on, unless I use the power button/volume down...
I did though tried a different image... same result.

I am assuming you have latest ADB tools installed in your system.
You can use ADB sideload to copy ROM in the phone
When you are pressing the powerbutton + vol down - I hope you are getting to boot loader?

Hi Lloir!
I much appreciate the personnel response and the time you took to reply to me.
Before I had the original HOX+ rom+sense and I believe I DID a full wipe
I flashed the kernel from your post. I believe that my lack of knowledge lead me to download the wrong one (?) boot-BLADE-42-201305062233
Would you be so kind and please guide me to the correct steps? I have spent several hours allready trying to fix this issue.
Once again, your (and everyone else`s) help is MUCH appreciated!

the kernel you need is boot-BLADE-CM10.1-whateverdatehere
not the 42 kernels, those are for AOSP\PA\AOKP

This was FAST answer!
I see my mistake (reading comprehension) :
CM10 - for 4.1 based roms e.g. CM10 and AOKP 4.1.2
CM10.1 - ONLY for CM10.1
42 - 4.2 based roms e.g. AOKP 4.2.1 and AOSP 4.2.1
I thought that your ROM is based on the 4.2 (?)
Downloading the Kernel now.
By the way, when and how do I add the gapps?

Thank you. I already flashed kernel and rom. Phone booted up and seem to work. A few issues:
1) I did not put the gapps zip on the phone before the process.
2) Though the phone appears as a drive in Windows, I can not copy any file to it.
3) Camera says NO SD Card and exits....
Thank you for your help!

Is this what I should do to get the zip to the phone:
Set the device into ADB sideload mode. In TWRP you do this by going to Advanced then ADB Sideload.
From the command line, type adb sideload /path/to/rom.zip

Did you create the '0' folder before flashing the ROM?
If not - would suggest you to load some other ROM...

[Q] [ROM][4.4.2][12/01/14]Beanstalk I9100 Unofficial - Discussion

Hi.
I've got a few questions about issues I'm dealing with on this great, fully customisable ROM.
1. What can delay/disturb USB detection after connecting to a PC machine? Once it's detected, once is delayed, whether the USB debugging is ON or OFF, this issue still appears. Everything's going good after detection, no problem with copying files, etc., but everytime it takes mi a few minutes before I can establisha working connection. Any solutions?
2. What can cause problem with my applications syncing? It's the only ROM in which all my applications aren't downloading automaticly after flashing and setting up the account.
Beat me, I've spend a week looking for solutions, so I decided to start a thread and wait for sb to help.
My PC is Windows 8 and my CWM Recovery version is 6.0.4.6
I've solved problem with USB via Terminal Emulator... still having issue with Play Market applications... anyone?

Thanks for your reply. I solved Play Market issue with a TB. Got a new issues...
How to properly flash an Apolo kernel to my Beanstalk ROM. I've checked properly which to install I guess... I drew conclussions from what I read guess I needed one for mali v3 drivers, because Beanstalk is CM-based, so I downloaded Apolo_7.0_CM_Beta2b_Regular-TWRP.zip. I flashed it via CWM and reboot in TWRP, then flashed ROM and PA Gapps. I finished with a 3.0.64_CM CET 2014 in a kernel version, I guess that's stock kernel from ROM. When I try to flash kernal after ROM install I'm getting bootloop. What am I doing wrong?
Second issue is that I can't install newest PA Gapps mini, because I'm getting system partition free space error... Is it normal? Are those the only Gapps to install with this ROM, I mean those pinned to post: pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.2-20131215? No e.g. black Gapps?

[GUIDE]/[Q] Stock i9100 to CM11 M11

Hi All,
I recently updated my stock i9100 to CM11 M11 and I want to check if I have done all the steps correctly or if I have missed any steps out.
I first copied these four files onto a micro sd card:
PhilZ-cwm6-XWLSW-XEU-5.06.1-signed.zip
If you are following these instructions then use the correct PhilZ kernel for your stock kernel version. This is explained in the linked post.
ClockWorkMod Recovery v6.0.5.1 - Recovery_CWM_6.0.4.7_I9100.zip
Cyanogen Mod 11 M11 - cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-i9100.zip
Google Apps (Small) - gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip
Then I:
Boot into stock recovery (volume up+home+power)
Install PhilZ-cwm6-XWLSW-XEU-5.06.1-signed.zip
Reboot into Philz recovery
Do a full Backup including the Preload folder by using the Custom Backup feature
Install ClockWorkMod Recovery v6.0.5.1
Reboot into CWM
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced>Wipe dalvik cache
Mounts and Storage>Format /system, Format /cache, Format /storage/sdcard0, Format /boot
Install cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-i9100.zip
Install gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip
Reboot and all done.
Optional Step: Flash a newer modem,
Download XXMS4 modem - modem_XXMS4.zip
Copy above zip file to SD Card
Boot into CWM Recovery and flash the modem zip file
Reboot
I found that the above newer modem slightly improved call quality and mobile download speed.
Note: Do not change RIL.
Have I done everything correctly? Have I missed anything?
I do have two issues,
When I tried - Mounts and Storage>Format /preload - it didn't work. I can't remember what the error was but it woudn't format the preload in CWMR
Memory only shows up as 791MB in About Phone.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!
You did well. More than enough.
No need to format partitions, so just ignore the error.
Memory reported is usable memory. It is ok.
Have fun with the new rom.

Thank you for the reply svbarbosa.
I had been putting off installing a custom rom and living with my laggy stock because I thought it would be tricky to install CM11, turned out it was quite simple one I figured out the correct instructions.
I'd advise anyone it give it a try!
When you have time give AOSP NeatRom a try. Is is based on Slim Rom and is the one I use.
Here is the link: [ROM][Sep 25][4.4.4] I9100 AOSP NeatROM.
Happy flashing...
Is it easier (and just as good) to use CyanogenMod Installer to install CM on the i9100?
I made a question yesterday, and would appreciate it if someone could help me:

Thank you guys.
@oldgalaxy hey, just got that i9100 device from my friend with all stock and laggy... ?
Your question was already an answer for me. I always prefer oldschool ways though they are harder. Followed your steps and... voila... Now I'm fast and stable. ??
But I was kinda curious whether it is really easier to install CM with their installer app. ?
Thanks man...

Thank you @LeroViten, I'm glad that those steps also worked for you. Also now that you have confirmed that it worked for you I am also happy that I have done things correctly, so thank you for that!
Not too sure about the CM installer, but I didn't use it because I wanted to be sure of all the steps I am doing because of the i9100 kernel bug that can hard brick the phone.

Hi,
I also just got a laggy SGS2 from a friend of mine.
And I want to reset/flash the phone in order to give it to my mother, which ROM do recommend CM11 or any other ROM (MIUI ?) ?
I would prefer to have something stable.
For CM, I saw that the last stable img was for CM10.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the message @ghosty81d! Glad it worked well for you.
An additional optional step I recently did was to flash a newer modem (don't change the RIL).
I found this slightly improved call quality and mobile download speeds. The modem I flashed was XXMS4.
i have good signal and pretty ok call quality, however, it heats up moderately when using the internet..near the camera, i think i had this problem on stock rom also..signal is good full bars outside. but i wud give the modem a try n I'm completely noob on this topic..what is RIL and how do i flash this? can i flash using cwm? also can i back up my current modem? and changing modem cause any damage to phone? ty oldgalaxy, this m11 rom is good, no need pc, no need root to install it, perfectly fine procedure
WiFi always on on battery status
I'm new here and also decided to leave stock ROM how ever my battery is draining in 4 hours.... And I checkd battery status and WiFi is shwoing activity all the time but is of.... Can anyone help me?
Also if I turn the phone off and don't use the WiFi it doesn't show activity on battery status
Sorry for my english
Thanks
I am ready to install...
I downloaded all the required things to try your steps. I will try it tomorrow.
I just want to know if I need to upgrade the modem or leave it as it is? Kindly confirm.
Thanks,
Sadiq

CyanogenMod 12 [UNOFFICIAL] [UBER] for i777 + Call Bugfix + Goodies

Anything you could ever ask for to update your i777 in one place. Download link below...
ROM: cm-12.1-20151213-UNOFFICIAL-i777.zip
Features
Compiled with UBER toolchain (supposedly faster than standard toolchain)
Outgoing call bug fixed (hacked, whatever, it's not there anymore)
TRIM support (thanks to Lanchon)
Otherwise unchanged
CM is awesome.
GAPPS: tk_gapps-modular-pico-5.1.1-20150913-signed.zip
Features
Works.
MODEM: I777UCMD8_modem.zip
Features
Nobody knows, but it's the latest version that I'm aware of.
RECOVERY: SGH-S959G_TWRP_v2.7.1.0.zip
WARNING
This is for the S959G (which I think is identical in every way to the i777). It works on the S959G but I have not tested it on an i777.
XPOSED
So good. Works fine.
You need to install the .zip in recovery, and the .apk normally.
Uninstall .zip included.
Download
Installation instructions can be found on CM's website.
* If upgrading from CM12.1, wipe /data/dalvik-cache first (you probably don't even need to wipe /cache).
* If upgrading from any other ROM, you need to factory reset first (ie. wipe /cache and /data).
Good luck!

1. ROM
2. Kernel & GAPPS & Xposed -> All optional, order doesn't matter.
Modem can be flashed at any time and does not overlap with any of the above flashes.
Probably clean flash for most purposes unless you're coming from prior version of CM12.1

Couldn't get the phone to detect my sim card / get data connection. Tried flashing modem file, but verification failed with the new CM recovery . Any solutions?

What device? I777? Also clean or dirty flash? I'll try to work on the modem issue sometime next week.
Clean install. Coming from cyanide Lollipop. Had TWRP when I flashed the kernel. I tried both flashing kernel first followed by the ROM as well as ROM followed by kernel. Both had the same issue.

I built a fully updated version (20151104) last night (see first post for download link). You no longer need to install Lanchon's kernel (TRIM support is built in).
I am installing this ROM on my own device (S959G) right now and testing it out.
Instructions:
1) Optional, if you want to try to flash the modem: install the version of TWRP you had initially, and try to flash the modem through that.
2) Install ROM.
3) Install GAPPS
4) Install XPOSED (if you want - make sure to re-download as the version is updated from v74 to v75).
OK. its been a while since i flashed a lollipop rom. so here i go. im currently running shostock3 v4.0 on my i777. if i flash a kitkat compatible recovery
( CWM-KitKatCompatible-i777.zip), i can flash this rom right? i'd do a full wipe, data,cache,system then flash rom>gapps>xposed....i should be good? right?

That's right. Not 100% sure about the recovery (I've never used that one), but I think you would be in good shape. Make a backup onto your computer first so that you have a contingency plan in case you soft brick.
If you're flashing on the i777, then I believe this ROM will replace your recovery with the stock CM12 recovery (just FYI - should be inconsequential).

UPDATE: flashed and booted up nicely.....but once i rebooted the phone, it stuck on samsung galaxy s2 logo with yellow triangle....

Yeah I installed an older version of xposed (v74) in the past and it caused a bootloop. Using v75 with this nightly has been pretty stable for me.
New nightly uploaded to link in op.

New build uploaded (working fine on my S959G).
I'm stuck on the CM logo. Worse, I thought this came with TWRP. It comes with the CM recovery. I made a back up with TWRP and moved it to my computer prior to flashing. The CM recovery is worthless. Not sure where to start getting back to my old Rom (Omni 4.4.4).
Edit: Good to go and back on 4.4.4. I was hoping to move forward with this version. Not sure what happened. I used Odin to install the Siyah kernel with CWM and then was able to flash a Kernel with twrp to restore my back up.
I'm wondering if I had flashed a Kernel with TWRP at the beginning if it would have made a difference. I may try that now since I'll be looking at the triangle screen from now on anyway.
I do recommend that it be clear in the OP that the stock Kernel contains CM recovery and not TWRP.

The bootloop is weird - did you inadvertently install an old version of Xposed (happened to me once)? Wipe data/cache/system and reflash - should do the trick.
I'll try to build a TWRP'ed version, shouldn't be too hard...

note 3 custom rom cant be installed

Hai.
I have a galaxy note 3 sm n9005. Have already rooted by finding forum from xda and even install twrp recovery following the guides given.
But im trying to install custom rom. And tried all the roms tat is given from xda for note 3 and could install single one.
Please help to resolve this problem. Im confuse.
Tq.
Not enough details.
It's probably the version of recovery you're using.
Which version of TWRP and what errors are you receiving?

Im using twrp 3.0.2.1 and everytime i try to install a rom it stuck at samsung screen.
And it show md5 not found.
What roms have you tried? What firmware were you on before you started flashing? Sometimes newer roms need the newest firmware like the bootloader and modem to run correctly. Are you wiping system, data, and both caches? If you are going from a Touchwiz rom to, say, a CM based, it might also be necessary to wipe the internal storage. Of course you should back all that up to a PC first, if you do that.

Resurrection remix.unicorn.slim.and all cynogen rom is working. Im trying install s7edge custom rom for darkwolf and darklord. I even updated the bootloader and modem according to tutorial. I used odin to flash them..
N9005xxugboa1
Lrx21v.n9005xxugbob6
I have my stock rom n internl backed up. I try all. And still it always stuck on samsung screen.
Are you installing the kernel after the rom flash? A lot of newer Samsung roms don't have the kernel built in like CM roms.

How can install kernel after. Everytime i install it reboots its self to samsung screen. Or should go back to recovery and install the kernel back. And thank you for your help till now.
That's definitely why it's not booting, if you didn't do the kernel. If the rom has the Aroma installer, typically the last question asks if you want to reboot now and has a check mark in by default. Just uncheck and it'll go back to recovery. But you can also just go back and flash now and should be good.

Hi
I tried as said and it didnt chnge.
Can i ask bootloader should be at bl and modem should be at cp. Is it correct.
Hi
Thank you for your help.
I did the change on bootloader and modem.
Now im i need to know two more thing.
I download 2 dffernt kind of bootloader n modem.
I flash blxxxxxbpb1 and cpxxxxxboj1..this 2 files were tar.md5 files
Another one which i didnt flash. Blxxxxxxbpb1 and cpxxxxxxxbpb2..this 2 files are tar.tar files..
Can i know whats the different with this 2 files.
One more thing is when i chnge the bootloader and modem will the kernel changes. Or is it different.
Please guide me..im confuse.
Someone might have just mislabeled them. Flashing those will not affect kernel. Different partition of the phone.
Hi

And even change the kernel as told in the forum. It was note5 port kernel.7.1.0..

This is the recommended kernel
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24572369242687310
Recommended recovery is TWRP 2.8.7.0 not the newer 3.0+
Flash other recovery. Boot to TWRP. Wipe system, data, cache, dalvik. Flash rom. Wipe caches. Flash kernel. Reboot. Should work according to lots of people on the thread for that rom.
Hi.
How flash kernel.
just flash the tar.md5 file or the tar.zip file
