First, I apologize for the inevitable incorrect use of terminology - I'm trying my best.
After hours and hours of reading up, I finally attempted to internally install CM10.1 to my Nook Tablet 8GB v 1.4.3. I appreciate all the helpful posts on this forum, and primarily used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037368 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2056626 to go through the steps. I hit a few snags along the way, but in the end I think I was successful.
Now I get an error message every time I boot: "Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped." I click okay, then everything seems to work fine. I have tried some suggestions from here, including clearing caches and stopping google's automatic syncs, but nothing has fixed the problem. As far as I can tell, everything works okay otherwise.
Any ideas on how to fix this message? Could it mean that I did not successfully complete the installation process? (Are there ways to tell if the installation was not successful other than not having a brick?)
Android Version 4.2.2
CyanogenMod Version 10.1-20130421-NIGHTLY-acclaim
Happy to provide any more details that would be helpful. And many thanks in advance.

This happened to me after I dirty-flashed CM 10.1 over another CM 10-based rom. Let me see if I can remember what I did to make it go away... I think it has something to do with a file or process that Android uses to index/keep track of media files on internal and external sd cards, and deleting or wiping the cache or data on that particular process fixes things. I will do some checking around and post back here if I (re)find more specific info.
EDIT: Found it, I think... Do a force stop, clear data, and clear cache on the "Media Storage" app, then reboot and see if it goes away.
Sooo... did it work?

Sorry...long week.
Unfortunately, it didn't work. I had also seen suggestions on the forum of similarly stopping and clearing Google Account Manager, Google Services Framework, and a few others (can remember them all), but those didn't do it either.
I have now also had an error message about Themes not responding - can't remember the exact wording. It's happened 2 or 3 times, doesn't seem to have any other consequences other than requiring me to acknowledge the error.
Could I have strayed somewhere along the installation pathway and inadvertently made this a dirty install?

You need to load into recovery and do a factory reset/wipe data, clear cache, clear dalvik cache. If you dirty installed (installed over another ROM that's not in the same version) you'll have problems with the ROM. If you're using an older cm7 or cm9 I'll suggest you update to cm10+ succulent.

I tried to go back to the beginning to see what I did wrong - hoping to fix the problem but also trying to learn. I'll explain in a bit of detail...
Tried to follow the process outline here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037368. I was able to access root using NT16or8gbV47SDimagefile.img, but was unable to get any further as it kept saying "No files found" when trying to flash rom and gapps zipped files. After trying multiple reformats, partitions, etc, I abandoned following this process. (Of note, I did make sure that debugging and allowing installation from unknown sources were active - to no avail.)
I then followed this process: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2056626. In addition to Step 6 - "Wipe data and factory reset," I also cleared cache and dalvik cache as suggested. Everything else went very smoothly. I've now been running CM 10.1 for a few hours without any error messages. I'll report back anything that pops up over the next few days.
I tried to improvise a bit and flash CWM recovery internally as described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1640958. I was never succesful using flash_CM9-10_CWM_6.0.2.5_8-16gb_emmc.zip, though I'm not sure it's really necessary. (In trying to do this, I modified step 2.b from Digixmax's guide - rather than using the recovery image from CM9-10_CWM_v6.0.1.2_8-16gb_tools_sdcard.zip, I tried using the flashable emmc.zip noted prior. In the end, I just followed Digimax's steps without modifications.) What do you think? Is there any reason to continue trying to flash CWM internally?
Thanks a million to all.

As long as you have SDcard-based CWM available for recovery purpose (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37515697&postcount=31) you don't really need to flash CWM internally. But if you'd like to flash it internally you can grab a flashable CWM zip file from Succulent's repo http://goo.im/devs/succulent/acclaim/recovery and install it using SD-cased CWM (just like you had installed the ROM/gapps zip files except there is no need for wiping cache/data & doing factory reset in this case).
I have a Note 2 (obviously), and I have rooted my phone the first day I got it and have never updated the phone since I purchased it. So, I am still on 4.1.2. My phone has been super laggy and I want to take the oppurtunity the when I reset my phone that I can take advatages of the new features that mobile phones have by upgrading all the way to 5.1.x.
So, I downloaded CM 12.1 by wilson3q with 5.1 system. I first tried the 5.0 version since the 5.1 looked too new, and did not have time to deal with the bugs. When I flashed the 5.0 version, I got errors of not being able to flash gapps for 5.0 and that I lost my root. I tried downloading the new TWRP to see if I can get a newer version that would work better, but no luck. I got an error saying that I lost my root privileges and did I want TWRP to fix it. I slid yes to fix, but no luck.
The same problem occurred when I tried with 5.1.
So, I ended up restoring my nandroid backup and I am back on 4.1.2 again with root working again.
I am thinking that I am probably supposed to 'step up' the updates, but not sure. Does anyone have a solution or a link to the solution that they can help with?
PS: I did not like the camera that came with the new mod. I do like the stock one. Are there flashes of cameras that I can use as well when I do end up upgrading?
Thank you in advance!!!

Try Phiz recovery, I've never had trouble with "[I605][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch". If I recall we had to start using that one when kit-kat was released (i reserve the right to recall poorly)
I have a link to download mirror here:

from your new recovery, you should be able to install CM12.1 and 5.1 gaaps recommended in the Wilson3Q i605 thread. from here:

You may also need to track down updated radios (to flash from CWM). I think you can find a link to the updated ND7 Modem/Baseband here:

Note you may also need to enable root from the settings menu after enabling developer mode.
there should be a "root access" option (or somehting like that there)

I assume that you are giving steps in order, BUT I feel that I should flash the radio to 4.4.2 first, in which the link was broken. I have spent a couple hours trying to find another link, but I am afraid that I may be using an incorrect one. Do you have a good link for that, please?
Also, I have ready the newest Samsung 3.10 Odin downloaded and installed, as well as the USB driver installed and downloaded the ADB fastboot. If I remember correctly, I am supposed to move this onto C: and run it to access the device (Note 2). It has been since Android first came out since I have used the ADB though. So, I apologize for the ignorance. So, do I just make sure the adb is in the same directory and run Odin or did I not need ADB and just run Odin?
I also assume that I run the Philz touch after I have gotten to 4.4.2 rooted first. Am I correct by assuming that?

Yes, I have done a cache/dalvik wipe a few times (because I have tried reflashing to get it to work with no luck).
I have downloaded the .zip version of superSU as well, and gapps minimal 5.1 with wilson3q's 5.1 ROM. So, I am almost ready to go with the exception of the correct radio upgrade file.
Thank you so much for your help!!! Much appreciated!
PS Will my old WifiTether apk files still work with 5.1 or do I need to get a new one?
Thanks Again!

Just flash philz from twrp. Reboot recovery wipe/reset... then flash new ROM gaaps... Wipe/reset... Then reboot.
I can post the radio zip to my site later tonight. I believe you can flash that last, or later (from philz cwm, after getting on cm12.1)
Same as superSU. Check out ROM first. It comes with root that can be enabled in developer options. you can always reboot to recovery later and flash the zip.
PS. WiFi tether built into ROM "hotspot" (no VZW subscription required)
Pps try this for the nd7 radios

Sorry to bother you, but I still am getting errors with Failed root access for Titanium Backup Pro. I also cannot find Developer Options in the settings menu.
I have tried flashing the radio before and after wiping and installing the ROM then gapps then superSU. I get into superSU and it asks me for root access and I grant it, but Titanium Backup Pro still says that it has no root access.
Any ideas? Thank YOU!!

with SuperSU installed, you may need to just need to update binaries. open SuperSU and it should prompt you if necessary. the "normal" option should work (no need to flash from recovery)
for TiBu...
--within SuperSU settings you may need to disable (uncheck) "mount name separation".
--You may also have to enable unknown sources (under settings, security).
-- there might be something to enable for USB debugging as well (TIBU should prompt for it)
FWIW, you can restore user apps/data... but I would not attempt to restore any system data. Personally, I have found it best to get to know a fresh ROM for a while before trying to restore crap from an older ROM . there might be value in re-configuring apps manually and/or restoring them one at a time (after making sure the ROM is working properly) i.e. you won't need any of those aforementioned WiFi tether apps since it is built into the ROM now.
Instructions on enabling developer options in CM ROM, from here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_developer_options
1- In the Settings app, select About Phone (or About Tablet).
2- Scroll down, and tap the Build number entry seven times. On the seventh tap, you will be notified that "You are now a developer."
3- Return back to the main Settings menu. Developer options and Performance entries should now be visible.

(that is likely how to enable superuser that is "baked" into the rom, given you already installed SuperSU it may only complicate matters)
You may be rooted and just having TiBu issues. If all else fails you can check with an app. A long time ago, I've used "Simple Root Checker" by SimoneDev to check root/busybox. It is still in the play store.
Good Luck!

Thank you! It ended up being my version of Titanium Backup. I downloaded a new version and it is good. As far as restoring is concerned, I do not even want the apps themselves restored from there, because there may be a new version and would like a fresh install of those apps. I just want my data restored. For example, I have a surveillance software that I would just like to restore the entries (IP's usernames and passwords). I would like my email settings to be there, so that I do not have to re setup my 7 email addresses. My Text/SMS messages and my alarms. So, I am not trying to do a full restore.
On another note, I am trying to get my calendars back into my phone with no luck. I cannot install google calendar and get my google calendars to populate into my task widget, and the ROM is not letting me set up my POP email addresses. Also, I see no ringtones, so I have no ringers to ring my phone nor tones for my alarm clock. I flashed gapps for 5.1 and I see nothing extra from the ROM. I thought gapps was google apps. Am I trying to do stuff differently than you? There seems to be a few problems in that manner that I am trying to work with.
I am thinking of downgrading to 5.0. Maybe the 5.1 is too new?
Again, THANK YOU for your help!

I wouldn't downgrade, nobody is actively working on 5.0.2 anymore.... that thread is basically dead. Also, it is likely less "stable"/mature than what you have installed now (that is currently being maintained). i.e. you have the ROM that I would stick with.
like I said I wouldn't restore any thing into system (apps or data)... you can do whatever you please. (but it could be causing you more issues than just biting the bullet & configuring manually) i.e. restoring accounts might result in unanticipated issues, you came from a much older version of android.
all I had to do was install google calendar from play store and then the CM12 calendar stuff all worked (I might have had to restart and/or install the google calendar prior to setting up primary gmail). you might need to remove all your accounts and load them again (a factory reset might be faster though.)
also you might have to update google services and the play store before certain things "play nice".
I know you don't want to hear this but...
from here on out i'll likely point to all your issues being based on restoring system data. (based on my limited knowledge and personal experience). FWIW, I'd try to reconfigure/setup everything manually and you will likely have much better results.

I figured that, and feared that and the same time. So, what am I flashing onto the phone with gapps then? Also, one of the reasons I was wanting to go back was because there are a few apps that are not 'compatible' with this system. Meanwhile, I am going to wipe and reset again, and do what you suggested and just reconfigure.
Thanks again!

GAaps are the google apps... good read:
http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps
(hopefully I am not out of line for posting a link to that wiki)
many ROMS like CM don't' include gaaps due to licencing/legal issues. which is why the AOSP roms devs often have you flash the GAAPS package separately (also you can pick your package for your fact pattern... full gaaps/minimal gaaps/etc.).
Also the gaaps zip files you flash from recovery install the files into system. a lot of folks like the minimal editions of GAaps because it doesn't force all the apps into system. instead it just gets you up and running with the play store and a few essentials... that lets the user install all the other google apps as user apps, from the play store.
basically taking the "debloat" mentality as far as you can... keep stuff out of system and let the user decide what to install.
Hey all,
As I don't develop CyanogenMod or work for their team, I didn't think it'd be right to make a post in the Development sub-forum. Anyway, I came across a post over on Android Police stating that CM 13 Nightlies are now availble for 'manta'. I've downloaded the latest Nightlie and flashed it on my Nexus 10 along with the lastest Gapps, and everything works great. You can find the Nightlies here. All credit goes to the CyanogenMod team for keeping our Nexus 10 alive!
In my case the gapps are too big (even micro and nano) while pico gets successfully flashed but then Google Play Services crash all the time.
Did you flash the very first nightly from Jan 9?
I have the same issues: nano gapps too large for system, can't install this way... any solutions?
Edit: pico gapps work, no issues so far
I can't even install the pico gapps. Which package did you use OP?
Edit: Tried again with a full wipe and it worked using the pico-apps. Have had no crashes of any Google services so far. I used the latest CM nightly to flash.

I used the newer one both times. Only difference was full wipe.
I'm having zero luck on getting Google Play Services installed. Tried the nano, now the Pico. Same as above users, the install will go just fine but will give me crashes every second on screen.
I read here and there that this crash on CM13 (other devices) can also be caused by a) Privacy Guard settings for Google Play services, or b) allowing Google Play Services to access "Phone" and "Contacts" or something to that effect.
Still playing around trying to get this to install.......
Edit: Did a full wipe of everything, including System/Data, and it all works now. I'm all setup! I'm getting an error on Google "Now on Tap", saying "The app has stopped" everytime I try to use it. I remember seeing the fix somewhere about something in Accessibility settings. But I'm having no luck remembering what it was or finding the fix again.

Google play services were not working for me at first either. I decided to try and sideload the latest Google Play Services apk to see if would fix the problem. Thankfully, it did fix it. You can find the apk file here.
Install Opengapps nano or pico http://opengapps.org/ and full wipe before install.
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/127116/
Anyone tried enabling f2fs?
Good news, finally got "Now on Tap" working.
I went to settings. I searched for "Assist", and selected "Assist and Voice Input".
(I honestly can't find in the settings where it is, I can only find it by searching within settings.)
The "Assist App" was set to "Google App". I selected "None", then went back and set it to "Google App" again...and all was good!
So, looks like I am finally up and running. Another note; the Marshmallow apps restore didn't seem to restore for me. I even used my phone to setup my account, all was linked fine. It got my identity and set it, but did not restore any apps. Not a huge deal.

I guess you did not read the part where we said that this is exactly what we did.
1GB RAM
I succesfully installed CM13 with Opengapps pico and its running very smooth so far. But in settings it's showing me that I only have 1GB of RAM instead of 2GB. Did anyone else notice this?
Edit: 1,1GB to be exact. Very strange.
Edit 2: I read in another thread that about 900MB is reserved for the GPU so that's probably why it is showing just 1,1GB for the system.
Hei, ref doing a full wipe, is that before doing the pico gapps install, and exactly what is meant by full wipe? Thanks

Yes before installing Pico. I did a wipe after too, just to be sure. A full wipe means cache and system/data. If you have TWRP a normal wipe includes all of this.

Many thanks for your quick reply, now I'll give it another go

PS That did the job All working very well now!
Does CM13 support loop device?
I need to run linux chroot (via linux deploy); that requires that the ROM supports loop device. Request to those who have successfully install CM13 on N10: Could you install the free app "loop device checker" and check to see if loop device is supported?
THANKS!
ps. This app is free and useful but it has annoying loud music; mute the speaker first
After installing CM13, my Nexus10's rotation doesn't work.
When I used stock lollipop, rotation worked perfectly.
Even if I update to the newest version, it's the same here. (cm-13.0-20160129-NIGHTLY-manta)
Does anyone have the same problem?

Hey, down the page, you should be able to fit bigger packages than pico on there.

Youtube 1440p videos
For some reasons with the 02/09/2016 release I'm able to run YouTube video at 1440p, but after updating to newer releases it isn't the case anymore, instead I have the same problem as with Google's official releases the videos run for 1s then stops while the audio still runs normally.
I have painted myself into a corner with a Samsung Galaxy S 2. It is my
girlfriend's phone and she wanted to play Pokemon Go. The Android
version there was 4.2 (CyanogenMod) with appropriate Google Apps. It has been
working reasonably well.
Pokemon Go needs to have at least Android 4.4, so an update was due. There was
a CyanogenMod snapshot of 12.1 (Android 5.1) which was installable from within
the old CyanogenMod. I hoped that this would go through well and we did the
upgrade. After the upgrade it indeed had Android 5.1. However, the Google Apps
directly crash, especially the Trebuchet launcher. This means that one cannot
start any apps or use any Google services. Especially the Google Play Store
does not work, it shows the error message [RH-01].
I first thought that we had upgraded to Android 4.4, therefore I installed the
Open GApps nano for 4.4:
(Due to forums policy I am not allowed to hotlink or link to the images.
So this is the best I can do now.)
http ://i.imgur.com/DRHqxNx.jpg
This then (unsurprisingly) failed:
http ://i.imgur.com/qjzrDKw.jpg
At least the error message was really helpful! So then I downloaded Open
GApps nano for 5.1. This then also failed because the GApps that I
have installed together with CyanogenMod years ago were not Open GApps but some
other package:
http ://i.imgur.com/0tI6eEn.jpg
At this point I got uneasy. Her phone turned into a paperweight with a
lockscreen. Since I could not seem to move the GApps forward without flashing
the ROM again, I tried to to so without wiping the data. For this I selected
the update mechanism in Cyanogen Recovery and flashed the Android 5.1
ROM onto the device. After this I tried to install the GApps again. However,
those still fail to install. Here I would guess that the CyanogenMod 12.1
“installer” does not wipe the system partition and leaving remnants of the old
GApps package there.
Since it got late I tried to at least get back to the old state and downloaded
the CyanogenMod with Android 4.2. Trying to flash this failed as the device
type was not picked up correctly:
http ://i.imgur.com/yZ9ilM1.jpg
I do not understand this error. This (or a very similar) version of CyanogenMod
has been present on the device up til yesterday. Why doesn't that work any
more.
A friend of mine suggested to replace the Cyanogen Recovery with the
TWRP. For this I have downloaded the appropriate IMG file from Team Win.
Then using heimdall-frontend on Linux I pulled out the PIT file and put the PIT
file back with the twrp.img file onto the recovery partition. Although the
heimdall-frontend told me that I had a success, there was still the Cyanogen
Recovery.
My current guess is that this phone has hardware which does not allow for a
separate recovery partition unless there is an IsoRec kernel installed. The
CyanogenMod 12.1 should have that, but the recovery is probably the one from
the CyanogenMod 10.1 as the option to update the recovery partition was not
checked when performing the OTA upgrade.
I'm stuck and I have no idea how to get the phone into a working condition. Do
you perhaps have an idea what I could do now?
Hi,
CM12.1 Snapshot unfortunately doesn't have isorec, hence you can not install the twrp .img file.
You can flash this and it will give you isorec kernel:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24407100847293132
You will then be able to flash TWRP here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=17876
Once that's install, reboot back into the recovery and you should have TWRP.
Wipe /system, /cache and /dalvik cache.
Flash ROM then flash gapps, then flash isorec kernel again (because once you flash ROM, you will have overwritten the kernel).
If you can't install gapps and it says you have insufficient space, use opengapps 5.1 pico instead.
gsstudios
I managed to install the IsoRec kernel. Then flashing TWRP worked and I was able to use it. The installation of Android 5.1 has worked, but I still had issues after cleaning up /system. Installing Android 4.2 or 4.4 did not help, it kept crashing either way. 4.2 even had an infinite boot loop.
Then I ended up wiping /data and installed 5.1 and the GApps Pico package. Then everything worked, even Pokémon Go.
Thank you for your help, you saved a phone from being unusable .
I have a smiliar issue. I updated to CM 13.0 as well to newest TWRP. I wanted now to install Open Gapps Pico package but can't flash because of insufficient system space.
Do you have an idea what to do now ?

Perhaps you should open up a new thread as this one does not have the correct heading for it.
As far as I have understood, one can use odin/heimdall and some modified PIT file to repartition the device and make /system larger. I suggest you further look into the partitioning of the system and make /system larger.

Thanks Phyton Guy, I will do that.
Tired of failed installed GAPPS ? Different reasons and many many lost time ...
Here is alternative :
1. Install UC Browser
2. Inside , you will find : 9Apps ( the same app as PlayStore )
3. Install 9Apps
- same app as PlayStore
- every app related to Google : working fine.
*** BONUS - install Video Downloader for UC Browser - search Google for this as APK file .
you can download on your phone any video on youtube , inside UC Browser .
That's it ! It's so simple and ...No more Google domination on your Phone !
I just tried to flash open gapps 6/4/2020 stock for version 9 arm64, after I wiped cache and dalvik and rebooted all my gapps were gone but google pay was showing. I could see all the others were installed looking in system apps though. Trying to run google pay produced an error, see attached. Play services version seems to be broken? Help?
Confirmed, definitely broken. Logs attached. If anyone finds anyone in the open gapps project that actually cares feel free to let them know but from my past experiences it looks like open gapps stock is now over for 9. Might try a larger package, I'll post here if I do and it solves the problem.
Update: The Super package has the same issue.
There are other GAPPS like Nik GAPPS.

Yes, but let's back up a step...
What LOS custom ROM do you have installed, for which you need GAPPS?
Just want to make sure we're all on the same page.
LOS-16 and LOS-17 need different GAPPS and of course stock firmware doesn't use GAPPS.

Of course stock uses gapps, unless you like wasting your storage to hold the updates and then having to re-update if you land up having to restore or do a factory reset, been doing it since Gingerbread and it works great, or it did, although the majority of updates can easily be moved to the system using Link2SD I have yet to find any realible means to move play services to the system without breaking things which is a major headache, gapps solves that issue and also allows me to choose which apps I want included in a rooted stock rom. The reality is that custom/non-stock ROMs are generally broken in one way or the other and more often than not it's just not something I'm willing to deal with, in addition there's useally too much junk included that I just have no need for and if I did I'd change my stock rooted ROM to fulfill that need. I've actually never seen a stock ROM that didn't use gapps. I'm perfectly happy with rooted and reasonably de-bloated stock and change things I feel are needed, for example adding in call recording, most custom ROMs would actually leave me doing more work to take things out and put things back in, like why take out the native sms, clock, calculator, calender, keyboard etc. they work, they are free and ad free, they are useally small and thus not really bloat and they are often hard to replace with similar function anywhere near their size.

No, you never flash custom ROM GAPPS on STOCK firmware. It already has built in GAPPS. GAPPS are usually only for LOS/AOSP custom ROM, not even stock based custom ROM. So there's your problem.
If you want to do it, go ahead, but I just know what I've been told by several devs.
When I read your question again, it seemed strange the way the wrote it, so that's why I wanted to clarify.

No my problem is that suddenly play services in Open Gapps does not work, worked fine until this flash. Open Gapps is just Gapps, all versions should be the same as released by Google, as stated I've been doing it since Gingerbread and the only issues it's ever caused is when Open Gapps is broken as mentioned in the first post and photos has also been broken for awhile now as it no longer runs in system/app so I install that from play store and move that myself with Link2SD which puts it in system/priv-app where it works. Not sure which question you are referring to, Open Gapps is broken currently and it's my understanding that all Gapps have to be removed to switch to any other and then there's the learning curve that will come with it. If I had the time I'd just create and maintain a package for just core that wouldn't touch the rest. That will likely become a necessity in the future at the rate things are going. So yes, after all these years I'll continue doing it since it's proven to work, assuming it ever gets fixed though I doubt it will as photos has yet to be fixed and that just requires a change in the install script.

How long have you owned the V30?
You'll need to factory reset the phone to remove the extraneous GAPPS you installed when stock firmware has GAPPS and different resolution versions of the apps.
You still haven't explained why you need gapps on stock firmware. Every V30 dev who creates a stock firmware ROM says do not install GAPPS.
From Aeron Li, the A.IS. and A.I.X. (stock firmware based ROM) dev, who says NOT to do what you are trying to do:
the bad thing is that he can flash/install mismatched gapps and that may make firmware work wrong, or even make safetynet issues and not working Gapps-related things

Boombox dev (another stock ROM) and JohnFawkes one of the devs who create the TWRP flashable zips has said not to flash GAPPS over stock firmware.
You're probably going to cause conflicts. But it's your phone.

I dunno never had any issues and flashed open gapps a few weeks ago, 20200513 to be exact on this phone, no issues. Actually it was explained in detail. Updates take up space, wiping data removes them and hence bandwidth and time is wasted. Moving updates into system saves space and bandwidth. Again I don't do anyone's ROMs I use stock and make the few changes I desire. The only real issue that requires it is moving play services to the system since everything else is movable using Link2SD.
