[Q] Gapps won't open when I try to flash. PLEASE HELP!!! - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Whenever I try to flash CM 10.1 RC2 or CM 10 stable they flash correctly, but when I try to flash their corresponding Gapps, it fails to open them during the flashing and aborts, so I can't finish the flashing of CyanogenMod until they work. Any info on why this is happening or a solution to help me finish the process? PLEASE REPLY!!! I really need help thanks if anybody can help me though

Since no one else has offered info yet I'll try to help. First off, have you looked for similar problems within the official thread? CM10.1 Q&A >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2138101
I regularly flash rom's and boot up without gapps to test drive first, then once I'm ready to do so I reboot into recovery and then flash the gapps package. What recovery are you using to install everything (TWRP or CWM)? Are you certain it's the corresponding gapps package (Jellybean vs ICS)? Are you following wipe procedures (cache/delvik)? Check out the thread in the link above and search through it ... good luck!

I figured it out now, but thanks anyway I really appreciate that you were willing to help. It was simple really. The Gapps didn't download completely, for some reason it would only download about 10mb out of the 91, probably because of the Internet connection.

[Q] CM and Gapps version

Hello! I have managed to root my phone, but I got the set up wizard message and the gapps error. After a google search it told me I had the wrong version of gapps. However, when I go to the official gapps page, the download for cm 10.1 only works with 4.2.2 and not 4.1.2. The one for cm 10.0 is for 4.1.2, but on the hercules downloads page, the 10.1 stable release is already out (that's the one I used!). Does this mean I have to run 10.1 without gapps, or downgrade to 10.0 if I want gapps?
Trust me, I have searched for this. Any help would be appreciated.
if you are on 10.1 grab the first one on the page http://goo.im/gapps also double check make sure you have no market installed if you do then you dont need any gapps install everything from the market
Alright
Ok, I'm gonna try that. +1 thanks for you. Man, I'm such a noob. :crying: :crying:

It's circling now...it's been at it for about 5 minutes now...the wait is unbearable!
Circling
It appears to have no end to the blue circling boot screen. I tried clearing cache and factory reset using CWM, no cigar still. Any fixes for this?
The CM version is the 10.1 stable release for hercules.
The gapps version is the 20130301 version.
which link did you flash for the CM what thread point in the right direction where you flashed from ? if you booted up the first flash and gapps were incorrect it shouldnt matter when you update the gapps it wipes the old files just make sure to wipe dalvik/cache and reboot
My Idiocy
I am retarded. I decided to go and unroot the phone and flash a stock rom and try again. I then flashed twrp via odin (which I prefer now) with no problems. But for some reason, no matter how many times I clear everything and try different kernels, the device will just not root. I have tried the superuser zips from the official site, I have tried the superuser from CWM's site, nothing works. Gah. Now what? Am I stuck stock forever?

Just use TWRP to flash whatever (Hercules) ROM you want. Make sure you wipe dalvik, cache, system and data.
Alright, I will try a wipe again, and then flash a custom ROM. If it doesn't root me I will report back with the situation. Thank you for all your help!
Um, just another question before I proceed with wipe and rom...if the ROM is based off of JB 4.2.2, such as Cyanogen mod, will my phone just run 4.2.2 as part of the rom, or will it be incompatible?
EDIT: Never mind...
I love you all forever. It works, and I have gapps running and root access. Thank you so much...I really don't know what to say.

[Q] CM 9.1 crashes continiously

Dear Community,
this is my first post on XDA-devloppers.
I ask you for help as y have a serious promlem with CM 9.1 on my xperia arc.
I flashed CM on my phone using the latest stable rom downloaded from the official cyanogenmod website (cm-9.1.0-anzu.zip)
Everything worked perfectly and i was delightet.
Unfortunately, after two days my phone crashed.
By crashed i mean that it first reacted very slow then froze. After this, the screen went black (backlight on) an then dark.
no button could get me back to lockscreen.
then suddenly the phone rebootet.
this happened every time about one minute after booting my phone.
As the problem didn't seem to get away i decided to reflash it:
wipe SD
delete davlik cache
reseting to factory
and then istalling the same rom and gapps from zip
everything worked fine again, but after one day i got the same problem again.
what can I do to fix this?
I would appreciate any kind of help
and excuse me if this isn't the right forum (search also, didn't help)
sincerly,
PraetorAce

You can try the nightly versions if the stable doesn't work for you.
Take out the boot.img inside the ROM zip and flash with fastboot. Then put ROM zip onto SD card and flash with CWM.

I tried a few roms and it didn't work.
with the latest nightley version from cyanogenmod website gapps wans't installed properly and my home button didn't work.
and the roms I tried from the link you gave me abortet the installation.
i always flashed the kernel (boot.img) via flashtool and then used CWM to: 1 wipe davlic cache, 2 reset to factory and 3 install from zip
will it maybe work with odin (or is odin only for samsung devices?)
thnx

Odin is for Samsung devices only. If CM9.1 doesn't work for you then you might want to try CM10.

Hi guys I did try it on my p601 and its ecelent
thought its easy just exported my modem on old p601 and tried to import it but I didnt make the trick
some other developer did mods for p601 then p600 maybe they can give a hint what else need to be done on a p601
ACTUALLY I use xkat 2.0 that developer did first an p601 and downgraded then a p600 version
would have no issue to use my device as p600 but get only internet by 3g
To get 3g to work requires a new device tree you can't just import your modem there will be a lot of files that need to call specific hard ware files, etc to get the 3g to work. I wish it was as simple as that

Does this Rom Have any Spen Support? Can anyone confirm?
cm12 how do i remove the mouse cursor?
As the question really. I am an artist and need to remove the onscreen mouse cursor when spen is used. I don't use an external mouse so dont mind losing it entirely.
Any ideas how?
Many thanks
My P600 will come in the mail within a few days.
I've spent a few days (4) reading through the forums before posting my very first questions on xda......
1. Is this rom based on RaymanFX 12/18 build?
2. Would clean flashing version RaymanFX 12/5 then dirty flashing Temasek's UNOFFICIAL CM12 BUILD fix the camera force close?

I don't have the camera issue,i dirty flashed like you are intending to.
Dirty flashing will fix the camera issue as in dirty flashing guy rom over raymanfx build or the nexus experience ... Some reason from source code the camera is not working. I want to build regular cm to check what portion I am missing (if any) of correct sources. I know what the error is from the logs however I fix one part and another crops up so I think there is something missing

Thanks!
I also think that this rom ir best of best.
Can anyone confirm pressure sensitivity is working? I cant find an answer, I read that spen is only a pointer so that does not work for drawing apps that use pressure?
My P600 came FedEx today and I'm ready to root and flash.
Should I update the device from P600UEUCNI1 to P600UEUCNK2 to get the latest KK recovery before I start? (if the 2 newer updates even makes changes to recovery).
I am getting the update prompt though it doesn't say which build.
The recovery shouldn't matter it will get flashed over with a twrp build anyway...
I am not up to date on the root ability of the newest bootloader as my device was rooted when I got it stock and I don't recall updating bootloader at any stage

your a bit hard to understand.
to flash it correctly you need to use odin and not the img flash tools, etc from the market. These tools can cause problems and can flash to the incorrect partition block for the device.
none of the TWRP zip files on their website ever seem to work for me, so i have also flashed these things manually because to many times i have been left with no recovery or back to stock recovery. Manual flash is always better.
you need an .img.tar file - here is the direct link from twrp website for lt03wifi (note 10.1 wifi only model) - https://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/lt03wifiue/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-lt03wifiue.img.tar
this needs to be flashed with odin, i would suggest read here first - http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...08-2013-odin-3-09-odin-1-85-versions-t2189539
within this there is a further guide on how to use odin, the link of odin iteself can be obtained here - http://www.andromint.com/download-odin-latest-version/

I'll try to be clearer.
Actuallynit's the forst time I'm trying to work with roms etc. Actually I feel a little lost. I managed to install Odin on my computer (tried 3.09 version) managed to root my device. But the problems that I have occur from there. What do you meam by manually flash your rom, why do ypu ask to use tpwr if you tell me now it never works. And where do I need to download the cyanogenmod's rom file? On mu tablet, sd card or on my computer? I don't wan't to say this tutorial how to get the cm installed on ypur device is unclear, but as a newbie, I encountered some difficulties.
Thx for everything.
Ps. I took a looknon every link u sent me, but it didnt really help me.

Please re-read my previous post.
I did not say manually flash rom, i was talking about the RECOVERY which is the TWRP recovery by using ODIN.
Please have a good read through guides, if the ones i linked don't help you try googling, there are plenty others. There are videos on youtube showing how to flash files/recovery using odin.
Please read as much as you can before starting, because when it goes bad no one is going to be able to fix it for you. As much as it is at your own risk i wouldn't like to see someone's hard earned money turn into a paperweight.
Tell me please, working s-pen?
The GPS is not working for me on this rom, heres what I did...
Step 1:
I flashed TWRP 2.6.3.3 with Odin 3.10,
Made a backup with TWRP,
Cleared Cache,
Cleared Dalvik,
Cleared Data,
Flashed cm-12-20141205,
Flashed gapps,
Flashed SuperSU,
Restarted to UI.... GPS Test Works, so does Navigation.
Step 2:
Flashed cm-12-20141218,
Flashed gapps,
Flashed SuperSU,
Restarted to UI.... GPS Test Works, so does Navigation.
Made a backup with TWRP,
Step 3:
Flashed cm-12-20150104 v4.2,
Flashed gapps,
Flashed SuperSU,
Restarted to UI.... GPS Test does not work, neither does Navigation
Also tried "Step 3" with cm-12-20150103 v4.0 AND cm-12-20141231 v3.8 with the same result.
THIS ROM ROCKS! VERY SMOOTH AND FAST!!
Could this be a simple fix? did I take any incorrect steps?

On which version were you prior to updating to 12.1 snapshot? If you were on 11.0 snapshot you might want to consider a clean flash (factory reset, then flash ROM, then flash gapps). I did it like that and had no problems so far.
Good luck

Try "open gapps" I always have good results using those. Maybe try a fresh install of Lollipop though with FULL wipes including system. If not at least wipe cache and dalvik after flashing.

Since I have less than 10 posts I can't paste links, but gapps file that I used is the one suggested by CyanogenMod. Google "CyanogenMod gapps". Go to first link (it should be CM wiki page). Scroll down until you find table with version 12.1 "Download: GitHub". Click on it. Now, when on GitHub scroll down and click "arm". Now select the latest zip file (at the time of writing this, it's "gapps-5.1-arm-2015-07-17-13-29.zip"). If it doesn't start downloading click on "view the full file" or "View Raw".
If that doesn't work, try doing as RuffBuster said.
