Google Apps will not show up after flashing any Rom - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a T-700
I don't use this tablet much at all, so it's been sitting for around 4 or 5 months with no use. I had Official CM 12.1 installed on it and looked around and saw some 6.0 roms I wanted to try. I downloaded the AOSP 6.0 rom along with the nano Gapps package from opengapps.. After flashing the newest Firmware and TWRP in Odin, I wiped the device and installed the ROM+Gapps+SuperSU. Tablet booted up right to the home screen with no Gapps or setup wizard.
I wiped the device again, redownloaded all the files I was using and tried again. Same result. No Gapps or setup wizard.
After this I tried several other 6.0 and 5.1 roms with around 10 different Gapps packages from different dates and websites. Same result every time. Then I decided to reflash the newest Firmware and TWRP once again in Odin. Same result time and time again, regardless of the ROM or Gapps package.
What is happening to my tablet? I've never once experienced this in the 2 years owning it. I even flashed the old ROM and Gapps files I used over a year ago and it still boots up with no way to sign into my google account or get into the play store. I've tried just about everything. People say OpenGapps is having problems right now, but even packages from other sites are having the exact same effect.

[Q] Update I9300 with 5.1.1 rom lost root

Hi,
I was on the paranoid 4.4.4 rom on my I9300, everything worked fine.
I did the last update with paranoid 5.1.1 but it didn't worked well, i have multiple error and Google service won't work anymore.
The thing is, i can't do anything at all, like restore my last backup because i lost the root access with the update.
I can't load in recovery mode, i tried the HOME+VOLUME DOWN (or up) + POWER, it won't work.
I can't fine the debug mode on this version, so i really don't know how i can at least restore my last backup to go back to the 4.4.4 version.
Any help is appreciated, thaks for your time.
Root doesn't ship with any 5.x build of paranoid android. To reset you need to boot into recovery and restore your backup or flash a different ROM.
You don't need root access for that.
It sounds like you installed an incompatible gapps....
Thanks for your reply,
I managed to boot in recovery, using a method i found on the web, i pull the battery then hold the combination keys when i put it back, and it load in recovery just fine.
I think i couldn't install the proper gapps because i was in clockwork recovery, i installed the latest TWRP, but i still can't manage to install the latest paranoid rom prpoperly.
here's what i did so far:
- wipe all/ factory reset , install Paranoid5.1.1 + Gapps 5.1 mini => paranoid load but Black screen once it's loaded with the message "Android.phone interrupted" (gross traduction) popping every 2 sec, it disapear if i put the phone on airplane mode => make me think the Google service can't connect.
- Restore my last 4.4.4 backup then => wipe cache/dalvik=>install Paranoid 5.1.1 + gapps => same as the previous problem, but this time i have my old app and i can call and receive sms.
My guess so far is a problem with the Google service who can't synchronize, the Gapps i try to use are the pa_gapps-modular-pico-5.1-20150315-signed.zip
Any guess ?
Yeah. The problem is you are using old gapps. Use banks gapps
I had trouble with a clean install of PA 5.1 + Gapps on my S3 (i9300) and similar issues to yours, not sure why but I found that if I used th full fat "Stock" 5.1 Gapps the phone was fine and has been for a day or 2 now, the pico/mini/full seemed to be problematic (at least for me). Also moved to Philz Recovery using the "Rashr" app as my old CWM kept throwing an error of status 6 on any Gapps I downloaded... Must admit though that once stable PA Lollipop runs well on the S3 and battery seems better over the past couple of days too...

OK, I'm stuck [T700]

I've been trying to update my firmware all day, I'm running TWRP2.8.7.2, updated to the newest bootloader, and tried 6 different ROMs, nothing will boot, except the alpha AOSP Marshmallow, but with that play services keeps crashing as soon as I try to set up my google account, and I can't get past the first run wizard. I've wiped my cache and data and internal storage a couple times now, and nothing is working. could someone give me an idea? I've never had so much trouble flashing a device before.
try going back to 100% stock by flashing stock firmware on ODIN. Next root and twrp.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have a t700 and had the same problems you have installing marshmallow. What worked for me was advanced wipe in twrp, everything except internal storage and sd card. From there hit the home key, and flash the marshmallow rom, then reboot into recovery, next flash su 2.5x, then reboot into recovery. Lastly, flash the benzo gapps, and reboot system. My play store started working after i installed in that sequence on t700. Ive heard a few others have had to do that process 2 or 3x before it works, and some, it doesnt work at all. Worth a try though. Good luck.

Nexus 5x won't sync google account on any new Rom

Currently I am running Bliss Rom with Gapps (latest builds) and the lastest ElementalX kernal. The other night I wanted to try out Dirty Unicorns on the 5x, because I had used it on another device. I downloaded it's latest version along with the banks dynamic gapps that were the latest because they are recommended. Of Course I did a wipe as per the Unlock/Root/Flash thread says to on how to flash new roms (always double check what I'm to do to flash roms for safety). (Also I did stuck with the DU kernal for safety) The DU rom booted fine and ran fine and signed in to my google account, but when I went to get to my contacts, it wanted me to sign in again, which I did, and it told me my account already existed on the device, so I removed the account and put it back on, tried to manually sync multiple times and it wouldn't budge. I then tried a Beanstalk build with the latest gapps and it did the same, so I have no clue what gives here . I have tried googling and searching for an answer probably 100 times by now lol so here I am posting. By no means am I a total noob for Android as my account tells, I just am not forum active as much. If someone has an answer or help for this issue I would be greatful because I want to try out Dirty Unicorns.
(I saw from the DU bugs that this is not a DU problem that is why I didn't post it for them, they blamed the gapps, but I have tried two sets of gapps on the two roms and neither worked)

Flashing ROM bricks phone?!

I'm currently running my OP3 on Resurrection Remix 5.7.4 (MM 6.01), the phone has the latest version of TWRP and I've flashed other ROMs in the past without any issue
RR has proven to be quite unstable for me, the system UI keeps crashing, which renders the phone unusable until after a reboot so I wanted to flash Freedom OS as that worked quite well for me previously. When I tried to flash the ROM in TWRP the ROM seemed to flash successfully but when I rebooted, only the boot logo showed and then the screen went black and the phone refused to respond at all for about two hours, after that exactly the same thing happened. I managed to boot into recovery and tried flashing a different ROM but the result was the same every time, the only way to get the phone to work normally was to flash RR again/restore from a Nandroid backup, either way, the result is the same, I'm stuck on an unstable ROM and I don't know why, the last time I flashed these ROMs they worked fine, I followed all of the instructions for flashing said ROMs to the letter, I have the latest version of TWRP, etc, does anyone know what the problem could be?
Have you flashed the latest firmware? If not, I think this is why due to you being on a very old version (6.0.1) and as you are not flashing official OxygenOS you are not getting the newest firmware.
Download and flash the latest firmware here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/radio-modem-collection-flashable-zips-t3468628
Pick the right one for the ROM you are flashing (For Freedom OS installing firmware Open Beta 14 - Firmware + Modem under 7.1.1 should be good.)
Note: After you have flashed the firmware the next time you reboot the phone it will appear to not turn on for a few seconds, this is normal while it updates, don't worry
Let me know if you have any questions

Running RR v6.0 (Oreo) and all my G-Apps are crashing

Hello droiders,
Bit of a noob here. So I decided to try and jump up 4 versions on my I-9195 from 4.2.2 to 8.1 to give myself a phone that actually can use some stuff!
as i'm on a Mac, i used Jodin to root (wiped phone first), installed TWRP and superSU, then flashed Ressurection Remix v6.0. It works smoothly enough on the ROM's apps, but the stock open G-apps I flashed on it are not really happy at all and keep crashing and repeatedly saying they've 'stopped'. Connected OK to wifi and can use phone. No interface slowness or anything. Just the darn g-apps.
Any suggestions?
edit: FIXED!
I simply flashed G-apps directly after the ROM, and wiped caches. Phew, no one told me that coudl avert such a ****-up so easily
Make a new full wipe, flash ROM and gapps at the same time and than reboot.
As Gapps Version is pico or nano recommend
Thanks, that's what fixed it.
Do you know why I keep getting 'program not responding' messages, and then when I press 'Wait', they immediately start responding? Is there a way to get rid of these annoying popups?
