G-Apps on CM10 (Benjamin)

Hey,
I am a noob so kindly forgive me if I am doing something wrong.
I followed the instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1813077&page=68 and http://androidforums.com/wildfire-s-all-things-root/480954-guide-how-root-wildfire-s-s-finally.html to finally get CM10 installed on my Wildfire S (Marvel).
But... I am having a problem, whatever I do G-Apps is not showing after I flash it.
Basically, I go to CWM and install from SD card then restart, it says "updating 75 apps" (or something like that, cant remember the exact text) then when it starts... I cannot find gmail and all the other goodies.
Do I have to clear / delete / reinstall something or do something after this?
Please help!
Thanks in advance

As far as I can guess you flashed Gapps lite version... That just bundles with playstore. You need to download other stuff from the playstore itself.

Thanks for replying!
But I dont even see playstore there
How can I delete the present installation completely and then reinstall from step zero?
Or can you recommend a good (as much bugs free) ICS rom which has no problem with gapps?
Thanks!

I never heard about this problem earlier. But here's a step by step guide to install it. Double check it. Also I recommend CM9 coz I guess you are new to custom roms and its wayy less buggy and will save you from frustration.
In recovery:
1. Wipe data/factory reset.
2. wipe davlik cache.
3. install zip from sd. (Install ROM)
4. Install zip from sd (Install G-apps package)
5. Reboot.
7. If everything goes well you'll see one time startup asking for your google id and all that stuff.
8. when it's fully booted install whatever you are using to incease memory like data 2 sd scripts or link2sd.
9. reboot.
You're done.

I went back to my backed up stock, but this time I used TB to remove some of the bloatware and it's good.
I am giving this mobile to my mom so I wanted it working good, but for her limited uses I think the stock htc room should be good and simple to use.
Will look into link2sd, never used it before.
Cheers and thanks again!

If u cud do just one thing for me...
Check ur system partiton space remaining.... the above problem is felt by many, the reason being their is not enough space left in system partition to install gapps.... onw thing u cud do is delete some unused app by root explorer try again....

I would check it for you but it's not possible now since I went back to stock HTC (2.3) from backup and just removed some of the bloatware before giving it to my mom as I think she would find JB a little confusing compared to HTC's skin.

I guess thats best...

[Q] Can't Install anymore ROMS???

Why can't I install ROMS anymore. I never had a problem installing them. I did a nandroid and tried to install:
Blazer Rom - Jellybean edition: Goes to black screen. I read that you need to reboot a few times after the first install to work but I rebooted about 10+ times with no luck.
Jellybomb 8.0 & 9.0 - Most luck I've had, it goes to "Updating Applications" before going into the ROM but gets stuck.
"Goodness" - installed the JB LJ7 Modem Firmware as described in the installation instruction and then the rom and it goes to a black screen
I am using TWRP which might be the problem? Never had a problem with the non-touch screen version before, but it keeps telling me after I install ROM's that No OS is available and am I sure I want to reboot.
Luckily I can restore my nandroid and go back to this outdated version of Blazer

See how much free space u have on ur phone or SD card.. I had a issue awhile back, where no rom would install.. I kept failing or coming back corrupt.. I noticed that I bearly had any free space.. I free'd up about a gig or so.. and everything worked perfect after that..

Also if this helps, when I install the ROM it installs super fast...like within 5 seconds or so. Pretty sure my 600MB files take longer to install. That applies for all the ROMs i've tried

Sounds like you have corrupted downloads, have you verified the MD5 Sum of the downloaded files. I would also recommend downloading them on your computer, and then transferring them over to your device.

Well I think I figured it out. Looks like TWRP was a bad/wrong version. I installed the newest one and Jellybomb appears to be working now. Thanks for the assistance

[Q] CM 10.2 Team Canjica: TeamCanjica-OTACenter has stopped

Today I installed the actual version (from 28th of February) of CM 10.2 brought to us by Rox.
I installed the I8160P version.
After that I get this error message after every reboot: "TeamCanjica-OTACenter has stopped"
I cleared the cache befor installing the new version of 10.2. Before that I used 10.2 from 4th of January.
That does this error message mean? What is the problem? How can I get rid of it?

Give me logcat i will do my best

I hope this helps!
Thanks for your great work, Rox!

Additional Info:
I startet the app TeamCanjica-OTACenter manually and allowed permanent superuser for it.
In the tab "Updater" I find the error message in red: Cannot read TeamCanjicaOTA properties.
Following the hints in the main development thread I looked up the string "teamcanjica.ota.version=1.0" in build.prop. It does exist.

i got same problems.

hi guys.. sorry i was kinda late for this, I just flashed cm10.2 and im getting the same error.. so the only solution is to remove the app? so how are we goin to update or know if there is an update in our cm10.2 if ever?
and I dont wanna create new thread about this so im just goin to ask it here,
C10.2
cm-10.2-20140227-UNOFFICIAL-codina.zip
gapps
CM10.2.x - 4.3.0 - 20130813
this where the one i flashed on my ace 2. my question is, will there be a problem if I flash the wrong gapps? for example i flashed CM10.2 and then used the gapps for CM10.1?
2nd question is gapps - stands for google apps? if it is does it mean it gapps are optional? if i dont flash the gapps there wont be any apps installed? like a clean format right? cos all the pre-installed apps in CM10.2 are downloadable at playstore right?
@Rox

although i have to trace which answer is yes and no LOL :laugh:
ohh another question, if ever there's been an update in that thread, I just need to flash the new update like what I did when I 1st installed my CM10,2 right?
I mean I have to flash the CM10.2(neew update) and the gapps again?
and flashing means i need to backup all my data coz it'll get erased?
correct me if Im wrong..
I also noticed the performance menu in system settings although i haven't change anything in it yet, I just wanna ask a link for a thread if there is where I can study what's governor, I/O scheduler etc? sorry I'm not really familiar with this forum yet..
and thanks again you've been very helpful :good:

I have the P version and i have the same problem.
Can I delete the app using Titanium backup or SD maid?Is it safe?Will it affect stability?

No. When flashing an update to the rom, you can just flash it without wiping data thus data wont be erased.
No need to flash gapps again.

[Q] [Help] system partition size

Welcome. Sorry for bad English. I have the following problem: I installed android 4.4, as we know without gapps. everything stable so I wanted to install gapps. Root, TWRP, all without problems. the problem began when installing gapps. information about system memory (not enough memory on system partition). I tried all versions gapps (full, mini, micro). all don't work. I have a few mods to install so I need to increase the size of the system partition. I found some information how to do it on other phones , but not for our P6. I hope for your unfailing help!

I would try first of all to wipe the cache maybe that work. And I don't know if there are gapps that work full on the beta, there was a ROM builded from the beta with gapps that work but I'm not totally safe were this ROM is.

Wipe the cache dont work. Instalation starting but within several seconds fail ( and information about the size of a partition). extension of the partition will be useful for other mods, so another room does not solve the problem.

Hello,
how is the correct size for system partition? on my P6 is this partition only 1,02Gb and 40kb free after Update to B507 via LocalUpdate. I think is to little or?
Last night i`m back to full B125 Stock, but partition size is the same.
How can i make the size bigger?

[Q] - CM11 TWRP 2.6.3.0 - Can't Flash Gapps

I'm having the strangest problem with Gapps not appearing in CM11. I'm unlocked, S-OFF, TWRP installed via fastboot flash. CM11 (4.28) boots fine, runs, I have data, however when I try to flash gapps in TWRP, I get a successful message, and then when I reboot.... no gapps in the App drawer.
I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Help! Thanks in advance.

you have to flash the gapps in the OP or the system fills and there will not be any of the "GAPPS" also the core gapps package is only the needed files for google play because that is what fits on /system, I could put the other stuff in /data but its a waste because you can get the apps from google play

Thanks for the response! I am downloading the CORE Gapps (16.1MB) 1-16_GApps_Core_4.4.2_signed
Is that the wrong one?
One other strange thing is when I flash them, TWRP says it's flashed successfully, and when the phone boots I see the "Updating x of 65" and finishes boot....
.... but then no apps!

Been having the same problem. I did some investigating, and here are some observations:
The particular ROM I flashed (given the timing, probably the same one you did) took up ~240 MB in the /system partition, which was ~250 MB large, leaving 10MB remaining.
The Gapps I attempted to flash was ~15 MB, meaning that it diddn't fit. However this did not throw an error, but reported a successful completion.
Given the above, I flashed CM11, then deleted some of the larger things that diddn't look importiant. (Turns out it was emoji icons and the keyboard). This actually worked, since there was now enough space in the /system partition for gapps to copy everything over. Unfortunately, there was no keyboard.
Simply put, /system isn't large enough. My question now is if its possible to combine /system and /datadata (or whatever's using mtdblk6, seems to be ~150 MB), then move /datadata to the internal sd card, where there's lots of free space.
I'm still too new to androind stuff to know how to apprach this, but I come from a linux background so even just a pointer to the right direction would be helpful.

Not sure if mtdblk can be repartitioned but it's worth a shot on my Inc since I won't worry much if I brick it. I think partitioning that would make sense. I know there's mtdblk4 and mtdblk5 that'd have to be deleted in order to make mtdblk3 larger. 5 is cache but I think the cache in mmcblk0 is used instead. Not sure what 4 is for.

Unfortunately I don't know if that will happen. The resizing of mtd partitions isn't as simple as resizing mmc. So we probably will be stuck as is unless we resize and repurpose the emmc partition. I think I started a project to do just that.

If we can resize emmc Inc will live until 5.0 drops, but I think that is where it will end. I have a 4690k coming that was pre-ordered so builds will be faster therefore faster tests.
