I am planning to flash PA to my old Nexus 7 (Tilapia) without gapps. The idea is to find out whether an Android device can be decoupled from Google. And whether such a device can still be used in a normal day to day scenario for surfing, mail, contacts ...
There are many apps out there which could be used instead of the apps in the gapps package (i.e. play store => f-droid, mail => k-9, chrome => firefox, maps => navit / OsmAnd, ...). And with a simple raspberry pi and owncloud also some of the google services can be replaced by an self hosted solution.
What are your thoughts on this:
- Is this possible in principle with PA?
- What should I watch out for when setting up the N7?
- Any other suggestions?
Of course you can do it. The ROM is functional without gapps

I don't know what it is you should be watching out for when trying your experiment but I believe it can be done. You'll have to use a 3rd party app store to download the apps you want to replace the stock apps with (k-9, etc). But once you start doing that, what's the point?
To prove you don't need to use Google Branded apps? Just root your device, install Titanium and freeze all the google apps. Same thing, right?
Just flashed PA without gapps. Added some great Apps from f-droid. Everything works great. Next steps will be to Conect to a dropbox server.
Currently I am getting a notification that a new system update, a new gapps version is available. Can I somehow disable in PA the check for new gapp versions?
Thanks!

Thanks Pirateghost, just found it.
I am currently running into two issues:
I installed the "920 text editor" via f-droid. But when I try to start it the app it opens for a nearly a second and then a error window says >"920 Text Editor" wurde beendet.< (I am using a German system; translation something like >"920 Text Editor" was stopped.<). Is there a log file which could provide more information why this application was not able to start?
I paired my German bluetooth keyboard (QWERTZ layout) with the nexus. But unlike to stock Android in PA they keyboard is mapped with the American layout (QWERTY layout). So some keys are not inline with the labelling. I did not find a way to change the used layout in the settings. Any ideas?

hi i am making a new custom fw for my Arabian friends so i want to add an app to it
so is there any way to do it??
i thought at first that i just need to add the app file inside the Shpapp file but that wasn't right and didn't work
Any ideas would be useful
Thanks in advance
You just have to copy the apps folder to the SHPApp>Osp>Applications with the other applications. I was able to add Picsel Smart Offce and MyExplorer this way. And it worked like a charm. You can get the apps from sites where they upload apps for spoofing. I recommend: http://badawaveapps.blogspot.com/
Note: Sometimes the files that you download from such sites might already be spoofed. That is they have copied the contents of the apps into a container app and renamed the files accordingly. So the folder name will be different from what the actual folder name would be for that app. So if you want to still install these apps, you will have to edit the <ID></ID> part in the manifest.xml file in the Info folder of the app according to the folder name.
Hope it works for you.

You can add sygic/ndrive but not delete the native navigation app since Route66 is encrypted in the apps_compressed.bin file. Native apps which you can delete are: Daily Briefing, Twitter, Facebook, Samsung Apps, Samsung Apps Update and Social Hub Premium Instant Messenger,
Whatever changes you want to make in ShpApp file, do that and then recompile it and flash it with a firmware. Done
are you sure astrotom?
i tried it before and ended up with non working samsung apps and nothing added
i'll try and report
and yes my intentions is to add sygic and ndrive and i have the original files already

You will end up with a non working Samsung Apps only if you replace a particular firmwares's ShpApp with other firmwares's modified ShpApp.
very bad idea to get an app like sygic with all its maps inside the file
trix and Wave remaker couldn't do it
trix couldn't add a sound file from sygic
Wave remaker couldn't add a folder inside the file
maybe i'll use small apps like you said astrotom like My explorer and picsel smart office
manged to do it
i didn't believe myself when i saw sygic as original app in my customized firmware
thanks astrotom you advice was so helpful
sorry but ...if I can add a new app (free or not like sygic, myexplorer, picsel...) and having it regulary installed and functional in main menu without spoofing like preinstalled asphalt 5 then..if those new apps will receive an updated version and I do the update through samsung apps when I'm logged then those apps will appear in the purchase history as if I had bought them (like ashalt), is it possible?
Does samsungapps recognize the installation of the added app as it does for asphalt?
don't have paid apps in my country to comfirm this
the version of sugic that i put in the fw is the free promotion version so i don't think it will get updates
and no it didn't appear at the purchase history
you should try it your self or ask astrotom as he tried different apps
for me sygic is just enough as i added alot of maps and the Shpapp file reached 590 mb
well based on my experience with asphalt 5 you can update it but it does not appear in purchase history. hence if you accidently delete it you cant download it again
Unfortunately, you can't update apps. Samsung apps will still recognize those apps and if you have not updated to the latest samsung apps, you can even launch them from within samsung apps. But like asphalt 5, pre-installed apps are not allowed to update. Apps can be updated only if you have installed them from kies and if they belong to your country's app store.

mmm...I've pre-installed asphalt 5, never bought it, but I've updated it two times through Samsungapps application on wave (not using kies) and if you login before doing the update, asphalt will appear in your download history
(update is notified on the top of the downloaded/installed application list)
yes even i have updated asphalt through my phone

Have you tried changing app version to a lower number in Appinfo.sys and manifest.xml before flashing (in Info application folder)? If this works perhaps it's possible to load a firmware with only some configuration files for many apps (no need of full apps folder with lots of mb...), then:
-set microsd as installations target;
-run samsungapps application on wave, login and download all the 'update' (actually you'll download the entire apps );
-if this works, you'll have all your favorite apps in your purchase history, working normally on your wave and with any firmware...

hi this is so intersing job
how can i edit shpapp infact how can i add app to shpapp ?
hi every one again
wanted to report bad news back
you can add just two apps
if you added more than two apps you will get unexpected behavior like disappearance of the native apps like samsung apps,facebook,twitter,mini diary......etc
or ending up with broken samsung apps and nothing added
hope we find a way through this

Hi All,
Thought I would let you all know that the new marketplace has just come out, Version 3.3.11.
Details of the new market (copy & paste)
Note: Root is not required.
Note: If the Market starts force closing, just open Settings >
Applications > Manage > Market, and clear data.
What's changed? So far, we've found:
New setting: Auto-update apps (presumably, sets all apps to auto-update mode, woohoo!)
New setting: Update over Wi-Fi only
New setting: Auto-add shortcuts (automatically adds homescreen shortcuts for new apps, a la Honeycomb)
Smaller font
New app drawer icon
Microphone (voice command) button in search menu
Star rating chart on app pages
Minor UI tweaks
Download link here:
http://min.us/mbkcCQPLvP
Original Source of info here:
http://www.theandroidlinks.com/Andr...-update-over-wi-fi-only-shortcuts-and-more-1/
I have personally installed it, and it works perfectly. It is (in my opinion) ALOT faster, more responsive than the 3.2.0 which i had previously had installed...
If this has helped, please click thanks below.
Cheers
Hi!
Only one (noobish?) question: but Market is capable to upgrade itself or I have to download and install new release?

It can and does upgrade itself, but only when its officially released by google and pushed out to phones via the market updater.
This release here is pre-released version of what may or may not be pushed out by google. So if you manually update it yourself, you will have the newest version now. I for one, love having new apps, roms, kernels etc as soon as they are released.
Coming from 3.1.5, the new Market seems more responsive (but it might also be the upgrade to Android 2.3.5 )
Anyway, thanks for sharing!
There has already been 4/5 threads and download links about this already, i wouldn't call it an incredible speed increase but it is noticeably better than the last version but unfortunately still pales in comparison to the iClone app store but im sure Google will get there eventually.

O rly, sorry i had a 3 page look back to see if anyone had posted anything about it before posting, and couldnt find anything - so i thought i would share.
Coming from Market 3.2.0 i notice a huge speed increase, but that might just be my phone compared to others.... edited the title to not mislead others into unconfirmed speed increase.
Cheers
Agreed, lot much better, thanks
i have tried downloading it and when i install it stays on 3.2.0 any ideas on how to get it working
thanks
Heres the method i used:
1) Get root explorer (or some app that allows root exploration - ES file explorer also does this and is free.
2) go to SYSTEM/APP and rename "Vending.apk" to "Vending.apk2"
3) rename the new "Market-3.3.11.apk" to "Vending.apk" and copy it onto your SDcard
4) copy this new "Vending.apk" from your SDcard to SYSTEM/APP (paste)
5) hold your finger on the new "Vending.apk" thats inside the SYSTEM/APP folder - go to permissions
6) tick all 3 of the first boxes on (READ column), and only the top box in the second row (WRITE column), and none in the 3rd row (EXECUTE column) then tap ok
alternatively - you can just copy the file onto your SDcard and run the application, assuming you have:
Settings > Applications > Unknown Sources (Ticked on)
I have installed it on Samsung Galaxy S2
My existing version is v3.1.5 have updated to this v3.3.11
I will use it for few day and let you guys know if getting any errors !
Thanks for update !
It's not a pre-release, I'm in the uk and my phone auto updated to this version about 3 days ago.

I get this to, also auto-update doesnt seem to work.
I've seen this many times. If you install an app from outside market it seems like market comes "out of synch". When it says update for the market app it's the latest official one. The way to get rid of this false update is to uninstall and install again. But then you are back to the official release.
But i don't think you should do this with the market app. I'm not sure if you get it back. If you loose it, just install the market.apk from the OP.
Thanks man!
It wont install in my phone, either install or renaming to Vending.apk and moving to apps...
I'm not sure if it's just me but it seems that this release fixes the issue where the market app gets stuck at "loading".

Factory reset, clean install , everything works great it seems, but not security center, vwhen setting apps to startup, eg. Apex, kernel tweaker, sidebar, etc. Nothing get granted super user at boot, even though super su 2..16 is updated, and su working fine else! ?
Tried copy su xbin to bin like before but makes no difference, nothing starts up?
But it's definiatly smoother and faster overall, than previous version
Any idea what to do about autostart?
Nice job The new rights management allow unified partition?
Thanks a lot for sharing. Found few bugs.
1) Not able to change the lockscreen wallpaper
2)double tapping on the home button to lock the screen doesnt work.
3)not able to use the blur effect on the home screen wallpaper
Liked the new camera app, it looks cool waiting for a bug free version
Would the camera app from this work on the international 4.4 rom?
If yes, then could someone post the apk? I would love to try it out. Thanks.

Will test this later. I tested the other repack on OPPO forum but there were 3 issues.
Supersu don't work.. Need kinguser
Need to add prefix to telephone number for sms to be recognized
Switchr app doesn't work!
With this one I had endless FC's of Google Play Services...did two clean installs always ended in FC-loop. With the other repack from Oppo forum SuperSU works for me, didn't flash Kingroot.

I guess the pa gaaps nano is not compatible with chinese kitkat Cos. I will test if the google apks from Cos kitkat international if it will work.
1. "Unfortunately, Phone has stopped" - I can't make calls with this repack (X9006). (If you have this problem you can make calls via the Contacts app or a different Dial app)
2. Camera - The only mode available for me is Normal, when I click Add only a blank Plugin Playstore window opens up - I can't download any other modes...
-------- SOLVED: Install APKs from this post: http://www.oppoforums.com/threads/coloros-kitkat-ota-33-gapps-11-01.22048/page-5#post-292285
-------- or go to system/reserve and install the apk files from there..
3. Camera - Voice Shot is not working
4. Google Location service and GPS causes "Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped" error message to appear over and over again - it literally blocks you from doing anything with the phone.
5. Security Center - App Encryption is not working - if you encrypt/decrypt any app it does not get saved - it stays encrypted or not encrypted.
6. YouTube is bugged - you cannot play any video

All Google apps should update themselves via play store. As for Google phone, can you find it on play store?
Are you talking about that one?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.dialer
the version seems to be 2.5.12_rc9
Anyway it's only for Nexus phone as all other phone use their own dialer and especially all CM rom (that's why you have to add the gapps afterward but that won't replace the dialer).
For other gapps, simply install the biggest gapps package, some google apps can only be updated, that mean if it's not pre installed, you can't install it (the purpose of the gapps). gapps micro lack a lot of google apps so use stock or super.
Edit : ok, simply use the google apps package called "stock"
https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Stock-Package
it will replace the dialer, the dialer you want.
have google apps under cm, but dont update the play. if i download from play than will duplicated.
am i right, that just from recovery have to install again the latest open gapps, and will up to date the phone, calculator, all google apps.
gapps will be considered as system app, the version from google play will act as an update.
just want gmaps an gmail an playstore unless there is any others you recommend?

Nano gapps gives you maximum functionality without installing all the apps
Pico will give you the minimum functionality - things like OK Google and some other things won't work
Gmaps & Gmail you can just install from playstore - no need to select a gapps package that installs these to system especially when you update them it will duplicate the app (the original system app & the update is installed in data)
