Help me with google apps - Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble

Hi everyone
I have got a Samsung Tab Pro 10.1 (SM-T520) and it unfortunately stopped updating due to it been so old and was left behind on android KitKat 4.4.
So I decided to root it and download the lineage update to get android 7.1.2 custom ROM on it and give it a bit of life instead of never been used because it's slow and blotchy.
When I download the ROM everything worked really well, moment installed Gapps it when pear shaped. I was met with "android is starting" message stopping me from do anything but go on settings through notifications bar and it made my keyboard disappear.
So I just flashed the lineage ROM back to standard without Gapps. I have tried most of the Gapps packages that they make and I get the same thing every time with the missing keyboard.
My real question is can build a set of google apps through apk. I have tried installing google play, google play services and google play frame something (can't remember the last one) all of them either don't work or crash and just not stop being up a message saying each one of them isn't working.....what apps do need to install or flash to build up my own set of google apps without using Gapps
(Just some notes at the end to help, I rooted using root genius, my custom boot is TWRP, I installed TWRP via odin and lineage seems to be the only ROM that does a android 7 for my device, the apps I want working are google play store, google app, google maps, google assistant (if possible), gmail and maybe calender. The rest of them are on my non rooted s7e so don't need them on the tablet.)
Hope someone can help

hello
there " http://opengapps.org/ " use aroma version
or there " https://www.apkmirror.com/ "
it's what u need
regards

Thanks.
In the end I just picked and tried flashing different Gapps packages, when a package I tried wouldn't work I just flashed installed the original lineage 14.1 ROM, to wipe the Gapps package....after trying about 4 different packages from Gapps I think the micro package worked.
Just can't get android assistant to work now, do anyone have any ideas???

hello
before installing opengapps u should wipe data, cache, walvick
regards

CM11 + Latest GApps, Play Store Crashes

So i am at a bit of a problem here and i cant figure it out.
I have installed both CM11 from 04/24/14, and tried the 4/08/14 Experimental build, both with the latest GApps zip file for CM11 from
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
The install seems to go fine, CM11 works, i can get wifi, connect to google account, gmail, internet, hangouts everything works..
Except Play Store...it crashes every time. Ive tried everything i can think of, those things include
Run the installed one from Gapps, it starts and i can see the initial disclaimer i have to accept then it crashes.
Download Google Play store apk and push it via ADB install, doesnt load.
Use GAppManager, the instant i select a version of GApps to install it crashes.
Try flashing an earlier version of GApps(For ICS) from KFFAide, doesnt work..
Go into Apps, find Google Play store that comes from the flashed GApps and clear its cache...
Ive tried flashing just CM11, booting it, then going back into TWRP and flashing GApps
Tried clearing dalvik/system and every other TWRP wipe except internal
Im really out of ideas...any help would be great nothing i do seems to do it...
I also tried flashing back to a version of 10.2 Experimental for KF HD but it just fails immediately when i try.

Try the GAPPS from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942 find which ones you want to use and then choose goo as the download place. Then get a slightly older Gapps. I'm using a set from 1-23-2014 and have had zero issues. They will update anyway so having today's 0 day Gapps is not a huge deal. If you want mini Gapps, here is the link http://goo.im/devs/paranoidandroid/roms/gapps-mini/older versions

I've been using the latest GApps ("stock" experience) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942 and it works great. It will error out some apps the first time with a notification that you must update Google Play Services to continue. Sign in and update Google Play Services through the store and everything works like a champ.
A bonus of using the PA GApps package (if you want all those apps at all) is that they install to /system and don't use up as much /data space. Maybe not an issue for many, but every little bit helps right?
Keep in mind that the "stock" (i.e. Nexus-esque) package will remove the AOSP Browser, Messaging, and Keyboard. As long as you're good with Chrome, Hangouts, and Google Keyboard, this (again) saves you storage. If you prefer the AOSP apps, read the thread for how to keep them or install one of the other packages from the thread.
It turns out the issue is unrelated to Google apps, ANY application i use and try to download with will crash.
Try to grab an attachment from Gmail, crash
Try to download a file via Chrome, crash
Try to download via Play store, crash
I have no idea what the hell is causing this ive checked my Download and Downloader apps they are both running, ive tried restarting them, disabling them, and many other things...
At this point how do i return my Kindle to a "Stock" Kindle Fire HD as if i bought it from the store?
I may need to return it, im wondering if this is a hardware issue? Doesnt make sense though because everything else seems to work, i can go view internet stuff so the wifi isnt bad, and i can copy files to it via USB so the storage isnt bad...

[Solved?] Google account can't sync + Google apps crashes after upgrade

I'm doing a new thread instead of posting on the specific stock because I believe this problem may be more generic.
---- Details -----
So, I have a P601, so Exynos processor, and I heard that recently it got the LP update, so after over a year of not messing much with root and stuff with my tablet, I decided to update it.
First, I had the Hydronium ROM (4.4.2) installed, a stock based ROM. This is the one I used for over a year, no updates.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2782580
Then I decided to install this one via TWRP ([Official Lollipop 5.1.1] Galaxy Note 10.1(2014 Edition) SM-P601 Firmware Root Deodex)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ficial-lollipop-5-1-1-galaxy-note-10-t3249975
And what I got was a Black Screen and no boot besides the Galaxy Note logo.
I then downloaded and flashed a stock ROM via Odin ([Official Lollipop 5.1.1] Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) SM-P601 Firmware Update)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ficial-lollipop-5-1-1-galaxy-note-10-t3240720
---- The Problem ----
And it booted back with all the data intact, but since then, a few apps like Gmail, Inbox and Hangouts do not work anymore, and when I check my google account, every time it syncs, it gives an error and Gmail and/or Inbox crashes with an "Unknown Google Play Services error".
I thought the problem was that I had 4.4.2 Gmail apps and they did not get updated to 5.1.1 (Though I would guess the stock rom would have done it...), so I downloaded TK-GApps, but when I went to install, it did not let me do it because I already have Google services installed, and it wasn't TK-GApps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/tk-gapps-t3116347
So I ask, is there something I can do? I already installed the initial rooted ROM over the stock, so I have root and stuff. I would appreciate any suggestions that may help me to get it synced and not have those crashes every half an hour or so.
Thank you.
--------------------------------------------------
So, following the happenings below, I left it charging, and just before going, checked again if GMail was working and no deal, so I went to Titanium Backup and restored the data (not the apps), and in the middle of the process, GMail notified me with all recent emails, and everything works now. Well, no idea why it wasn't working before, but now it does.
Well, decided to reinstall everything again, so I backed all normal apps with Titanium Backup, and used TWRP to wipe Data and System, and re flashed everything. Followed the welcome screen, logged on my GMail account, installed Gmail, says my Google Play Services should be updated, I updated it via Play Store, and still no messages... Went to check if my entire Google account synced and no deal, failed.
So I'm guessing I must be using incompatible ROMs or something like that... I guess?

google play not responding after CM13 install

today i installed cyanogenmod CM13 and gapps on my asus zenfone 2, the install went fine, but when i booted my phone, i selected the language, then when it went to look for updates, a system message appeared "google play services has stopped", which has caused the phone to hang at the update page, and to top it off i forgot to install TWRP, so i think im going to have an issue installing a fresh install.
does anybody have any ideas as to what i can do please?
+1 same problem

This is a CM bug (not relating to our device), showing up on a lot of devices since 3/26 builds. Chances are it will be fixed soon.

[HELP THREAD] cm-14.1 on LG-G3 (Model: D8555)

I decided to update my phone from CM13 to CM14.1 the other day without having read anything about CM14 and not realising how new it was (yes I know, stupid thing to do!).
So after the update I've had nothing but problems with google services not working properly, so I uninstalled google services from the apps menu within the phone, downloaded the Android 7.1, ARM, Stock version of GAPPS from opengapps.org and booted my phone into TWRP and flashed the newest version of gapps.
This fixed the issue with google services not responding, however now none of my apps work.
Anytime I try to load an app such as facebook, email, browser. My phone will freeze for several minutes and then the app will just tell me its stopped responding.
Does anybody have any advice on what to do? (I dont care if the result is that I have to wipe the phone and lose everything on it, just want my phone to work again!)
Edit: an additional piece of info, any time I try to do something that requires root access (for example moving an app to my SD card) my phone will tell me that I don't have root access, even though I must because I'm using cyanogenmod...

Try doing a clean flash of the rom along with the respective gapps package. You have to flash the rom and gapps together. And for the root issue, you have to first turn ON root from the developer options in settings.

Thank you for your assistance, all is working well now
Hi guys, is there a way to change the carrier name? The correct name for my carrier is "telecom Italia spa", not "... Italiz spa". Thanks in advance.

Gapps not working (Won't install open gapps because rom is 4.3 even though I'm on 6)

Hi,
Hopefully someone sees this. I have a galaxy s2 t989 and I installed cm13 the other day. It doesn't come with gapps obviously, so I put the version recommended on the forums, and it said "Error code 20" "This version of gapps is for version 6.x.x and you are on 4.3". CM13 is android 6.0.1, so I don't really understand. I've installed the kitkat CM previously, and had it on there for multiple years, but I formatted and reset everything in the phone. Anything that is able to be formatted in CWM I did, and it still didn't work. I then tried to manually install the APK for google play services along with the play store, and it just keeps spamming "Unfortunately, google play services has stopped". I can't seem to figure out how to change the version of the rom in CWM to be my current version. Can anyone help please?
Recommend..
1. Flash back to factory OEM Samsung T989 Android 4.1.2 rom..
2. Flash TWRP Recovery
3. Backup device to Micro SD
4. Did I mention Backup device to Micro SD?
If you wish to try a custom ROM.. always use a matching version of Open GAPPs.. so if its an Android 6 rom.. use Android 6 GAPP... also.. for this old T989 device.. use the NANO GAPP.. and install only what you need from the play store afterwards. Good threads to read over for this device are:
