[Q] After Updating ROM, what about Gapps - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there
Using the GT-I9000 with Android 4.4.4. (cyanogenmod Version 11-20140916 Snapshot M10 galaxysmtd, Baseband I9000XXJVT.
By the way: I'm an absolute Beginner using custom ROMS...
Right after this actually downloaded update, i have to (re)install gapps, i think. But it is not clear to me, how to act correctly. May I use the last gapps.zip published for 4.4.4, which was downloaded and installed before (pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.4-20140901-signed.zip)
or is it necessary to find a new Version for gapps?
If so: what is the easiest way to find a properly Version of gapps
Thanks a lot for your help

as long as the gapps package is compatible with the rom its okay to reinstall

By reading at least once the opening post by the maintainer pawitp, where he has posted even download link for the official CM gapps.

Alternate Gapps flash?

I was wondering if it is possible to get a proper working rom if I were to take the gapps zip file from one rom and flash it with a different rom? Or are gapps rom specific and won't work with any other rom than it's intended rom?

Gapps are ROM specific for many custom roms, as the developer has tweaked it to be compatible with his rom. I dont think it if you flash Gapp of one ROM with any other ROM it will work.
What exactly do you have in mind.. Which Gapp & ROM do you need to flash?

I really like the black gapps of the BlackCNA rom and wanted to flash that with utacka paranoid android latest nightly build rom.

Although I like flashing & experimenting, I have not tried doing this & I doubt it will work.

Well, go ahead and try it. The worst case scenario is you'll have to reflash PA.
Side note: I flashed Gapps for Nexus 7 on N7000 CM Rom and it worked. You never know if you don't try.
So far the flash is working good

NO need to flash gapps. its already included in the rom.(atleast the basics)
I was thinking of getting google now for 4.2.2 on mini. Please post if that becomes possible.

the one included does not have 'google now'. Or as u said only has the basic apps. Anyway, Now i have installed the latest build . should i update the gapps now? because i tried to install gapps as soon as i installed the rom n the rom was not behaving properly. (like i cant get the browser to work and stuff like that). so i thought may be after configuring the os syncing my google accounts the GApps upgrade works..?
Thanks

Which rom did you flash? The Gapps are not interchangeable in my experience.
try these gapps by removing the bloat from gapps they fix a lot of issues

In that case, I assume you're installing the Gapps for 4.2.2 from here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Gapps

If you havent done so already try re-downloading the Gapps zip as it could be corrupt in some way, other than that it could be the recovery version so maybe try philz/TWRP if you have them.
Id strongly recommend having a look at the PA gapps packages as they are reguarly updated and offer a range of choices.

I don't think the file was corrupted sicne i've checked the md5sum and was correct.I'll try to follow your suggestions and post the results here.
By the way i've just tried the lastest CM 11 dev version but nothing changed so i guess it does not depend on CM 11 version.Could a different kernel make the difference here?
It shouldnt do I wouldnt have thought.

I solved my problem by installing pa_gapps-stock-4.4.4-20140901 and now all works fine! Thank you for your help @Oblox
Hope this will be helpful for other Xperia Sp owner who has the same issue.
Glad its all sorted.

[Q] Flashed lollipop from source no gapps

So I got my nexux 6 a few days ago from att. I have since compiled lollipop from source and flashed it on my device forgetting it does not have gapps. I am trying to figure out what I need to do to install gapps onto the nexus 6. I have tried to factory image but that did not install it either. Can anyone point me to how to install gapps?
You have to find Lollipop Gapps and then flash them. You can find them on the internet.
