I updated LineageOS from 13.0-20170527-nightly-mondrianwifi to 13.0-20170603-nightly-mondrianwifi on my Samsung Galaxy TabPRO 8.4.
Everything worked well to download and install the new version.
But Gapps disappeared and I had to reinstall it. And of course, build my home screens again. Do I do something wrong or is it normal for updating this OS?
I am new to LineageOS so I have no previous experience.
It depends. You did a "clean install", wiping system, data - which is usually the safe way.
If the upgrade is minor (as in your case...) - no need to wipe system. Just install it (no need to reinstall gapps) and wipe cache, dalvik.

I have recently installed the new stable version of CM10 that was released today. The rom seems to be working fine but i cannot for the life of me get the gapps to install.
here are the steps I have followed to do a FULL CLEAN wipe.
Phone being used: S3 1747 att / Carrier:Bell
Rom=cm-10.0.0-d2att.zip
Gapps=gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
CWM= d2att 6.0.1.4 touch
1- Boot into recovery
2- Wipe cache
3- Under advanced wipe dalvik cache / battery stats
4- Under mounts: format system, data, and cache
5- Flash the ROM's zip file
6- Flash the gapps zip file
7- Reboot
This has always worked for me and i have no idea why the Gapps will not instal. Does anyone have any idea why this might be? Ive tried 3 times now. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: forgot to mention, the actual install within Clockwork recovery goes fine but when I boot into the rom and check my apps, the gapps are not present. Sorry for any confusion.
Check to make sure signature verification isn't turned off. If it continues, try twrp recovery (to rule out a recovery issue).
Thanks for the quick reply!
I turned signature checking on in ClockWorkMod, Reflashed gapps, wiped cache, dalvik cache and fixed permissions. Still does not work.
I then installed TWRP Recovery (latest version for d2att) Factory reset, Wiped cache, Wiped System, Wiped Dalvik. Installed ROM then Gapps both with signature verification turned on. Still no Gapps. Any ideas?
Also tried going back into TWRP, wiped cache, wiped dalvik and fixed permissions. Still no Gapps.
Where did you dl them from? i would try dl'ing again from a different place.

I tried many different links including the ones posted above and this still doesnt work. I also got curious and flashed a few older nightly builds mainly:
cm-10-20121110-NIGHTLY-d2att
cm-10-20121111-NIGHTLY-d2att
cm-10-20121112-NIGHTLY-d2att
and gapps does not work on any of them. There has to be something im doing wrong but i cannot for the life of me figure it out. Im not sure what to try next. Any suggestions?
EDIT: wait a minute... what apps does the gapps package include by default now?
EDIT2: GOOD LORD. I feel so stupid. I was under the impression that navigation, maps the new camera app was part of the 201210 gapps. I somehow forgot that recently I installed the 4.2 leaked apps which came with all the new goodies. Jesus lol. I also remember that installing the 4.2 apps made me lose the launcher options in cm10 settings which is why I have gotten rid of them. I guess this problem is now solved lol
Haha, well normally GAPPS don't include much. Just playstore, voice search (google now) and some other apps I don't remember. Not many though.
Phone: Samsung-SGH-I747
Carrier: AT&T
Andriod Version: 4.1.2
CM: 10-20121206-NIGHTLY-d2att
CWM: recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.2-d2att
I am unable to find a compatible Gapps that works with this ROM, anytime I flash Gapps I get the
Unfortunately Android Keyboard (AOSP) Stopped
As well as "Connection Error "Retry" when trying to access Google Play.
I've tried wiping the cache within the AOSP Keyboard settings as well, but this seems to be a Gapps error as the Play store stops working.
I have tried gapps-jb-20121011-signed and gapps-jb-20121130-signed.
This is the method of install I have been doing:
1) Wipe data/factory reset
2) Wipe Cache Partition
3) Advanced -->Wipe Davlik Cache
4) Install 10-20121206-NIGHTLY-d2att
5) Install gapps-jb-20121011-signed
6) Reboot
Am I doing this right? Should I wipe cache/partition/davlik cache before gapps install? Whats going on here?
Is there a proper flashing process to make these work? Or is there is comparable stable ROM that has Gapps included and works (JB ONLY)?
I re-rooted my phone and did a clean install with I747UCDLK3_I747ATTDLK3_ATT then root66_ATT_I747UCDLK3 then ROManger CWM download to get where I'm at.
My whole reason to rooting was for Google Now, I've always liked CM's work but am willing to try something else if there are any other suggestions??
Please help, I feel like I've spent WAY too much time on something that seems so simple.
You're doing this right. I don't know what could be wrong.
As a last measure, try format instead of wipe. Format boot, system, data and cache, and flash CM and gapps 20121011 again.
Good luck!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And that did the trick.

I just updated from CM9.0 to 9.1. The step I've taken is install zip, clear cache and thats all.
Now after reboot, it's like I haven't install GAPPS. I installed it when I first install 9.0 but now after flashing 9.1 (without full wipe cause it's only 9.0 to 9.1) Play Store crashes, Gmail too, no add Google account option in settings. Except for that everything is okay.
I read through posts saying installing GAPPS helps but I was wondering why, when I installed it on 9.0.
On CM9/9.1 GAPPS are wiped by installing an update of CM, flash GAPPS again.
The update removes earlier version of CyanogenMod completely in order to avoid issues.
Just reinstall GAPPS.
Hello everyone,
I have flashed and dirty flashed, installed twrp and others for years for my different phones. But this Oneplus 3 seems different.
I flashed TWRP 3.1.1-0 to it and then LineageOS official 2017-05-something, after that the Magisk 13.0 and then OpenGapps aroma. This was done with a full phone wipe (system, data, dalvik cache, internal storage, cache).
But, afterwards I noticed that whenever I installed an updated build of LineageOS, or ANY other zip, the system would act as if a full factory reset was performed! This never happened before with Cyanogenmod or any of my previous phones.
This makes updating LineageOS super tedious - as after EVERY nightly I update I have to log into my Google account, install Titanium backup and restore all apps and their settings.
Could anyone give me a hint on whether I have missed something in moving my flashing habits from Cyanogenmod to LineageOS era?
There were reports, that the official TWRP has some problems and wipes data, when installing a zip.
I think this is the issue with TWRP.
Install the unofficial build from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on.../recovery-official-twrp-oneplus-3-3t-t3543391
or use TWRP from blu_spark here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=15934#downloads
Well - this explains everything! Thank you so much cl0g for this hint!
Hello,
I used LineageOS with gapps. Now I want to reinstall LineageOS without gapps. I wiped Cache, System and Data and internal, the installed newest LineageOS.
Why do I get this confirmation I can't skip at setup? Did I something wrong? I am little scared why this comes up on a lineagOS ROM?!
Thanks for clearness!
I did again a wipe, also after installing lineageOS, now I was not asked after a google account at setup.
