E980 identify as tablet in custom roms - LG Optimus G Pro

Hi All,
Tried to switch from stock to CM11 or PAC man rom.
In both cases, the rom identify the phone as tablet (at the end of setup I get "Your tablet is ready to work" message).
This disable many things in google play (e.g. cannot download whatsup, dialer etc.)
Has anyone run in to it? Found a solution?
Thanks,
Nir

I'm curious, why install google keyboard? Isn't it similar enough, feature wise, to the AOSP keyboard? In fact, aren't they the same? I think the google keyboard is for those stock devices that only have the manufacturers custom keyboard installed. You already have it installed on CM11, maybe that's why you're getting an error.

I don't think aosp and google kb are exactly the same.
plus, if it's showing as an update thru play and the error is coming, then not getting the newest fixes&features.
I would check to see that you don't have some version of it being installed by gapps being used or something. one that is themed maybe or customized will usually contain a different signature than the official one.
also, after you delete it and/or uninstall, reboot device before trying to install thru play.

Hey guys, id like to install the Google Keyboard because it has new features that i really like. It doesn not show as an update to the CM11 AOSP keyboard, it is a separete app.
Also restarting after uninstalling/moving the CM11 keyboard's .apk did not help
Any other suggestions on how to get the google apk installed?
Thanks

[Q] Various problems

Hello !
First of all I would like to thank the creators and developers for the amazing G Pad.
I've always wanted to try various roms and kernels, unfortulately I'm always encountering problems despite following tutorials...
For example I've understood that I need to flash the 4.2 stock base if I want to flash customs roms. When I do that, with a rooted device on which TWRP 2.7.0 is installed, the only thing the tablet does at startup (when I want to flash the rom) is running some sort of script and it reboots (and I get the initial configuration wizard)... I've also tried to wipe data/system/cache before flashing the 4.2 base but the script thing was still happening and of course the only way to get the tablet back to a usable state is running the LG support tool that flashes the default system.
Then, I've tried CM 11 based roms. It goes well, but for some reasons the tablet seems less responsible for things like the screen rotation, as compared with the 4.4 stock rom. I also have problems with Google Play Movies : I can't view movies in high definition. The same goes with Youtube, the maximum I can get is 720p (when the 4.4 stock rom allows me to viex in 1080p). Even with tuning the dpi scale with a root app these problems remain (although the global interface seems smaller).
And i've tried LG 4.2/4.4 stock based roms, but the android system or keyboard keeps crashing at startup...:crying:
So for the moment I'm stuck with the 4.4.2 LG stock rom. The LG interface is not bad but I don't really like it (less than pure android experience) and there is some lag especially when viewing videos. And there are some apps I never use. I can flash custom kernels to help with the gamma issues but that's all.
Maybe i'm missing something, in that case maybe someone here will help me to find the solutions. It would be great !

[Q] Google play services incompatible with certain apps after installing a rom

First of all, I am aware there's a solution post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51022557#post51022557 but since the Galaxy Fame is kind of unique I wish for a more accurate solution if possible
I installed this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582851 and everything worked fine, except when I tried to use snapchat I got that error of Google Play Services incompatibility. Now, it says that rom is intended for developers and what not but every page I visited asking what was the best rom linked me to it so I tried it; I'm saying this because to be honest I barely know that my phone has to be rooted and I kind of know what CWM does, besides that I have no idea how custom roms work and thus I am asking for your help here on this matter
P.S: I'm not bashing on the creator of that rom.
Try with corsifame 2,cause corsifame 2 use lastest based official firmeare

NFC tap-and-pay with CM-based ROMs?

I've got a bit of a question about CM-based ROM's and NFC that I can't seem to find an answer to: Do the CM-based ROMs have the ability to use tap-and-pay NFC apps? I've tried installing from the play store but instead get a 'your device is not compatible with this app'. Similarly, if I restore from a backup made in a Sense ROM, the app won't run.
Is this just an issue with the ROM - it just doesn't have that capability - or is there some way to patch around this issue. This has me stumped - any help would be appreciated.

Install custom rom on Nokia 5.1?

Hi all, I'm looking at a way to install a custom rom on my Nokia 5.1.
It's kinda slow so I wanted to either downgrade it to Android 9 or to install any other custom rom. Does anybody have a working guide to point me to? Unfortunately there are a lot on the web that simply don't work.
Thank you a lot!
Nokia did not share the device tree with us, therefore no ROMs are available
I also got automatically updated to 10 and it started choking itself, so I uninstalled every evenwell app via APT and switched from default launcher to "Rootless Pixel Launcher"
