Updating the GApps on OxygenOS 4.0. - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

Hello. I am wondering is it possible to just "over-flash" the GApps what came with the OxygenOS?
I would like to just update the GApps with newer ones on opengapps.org website.

You can update Gapps via play store, you don't need to reflash it.

Has anyone tried to dirty flash OOS 5 over OB27 ?
Edit : dirty flash works and also magisk 14.3 :good:
Battery seems a lot better to nougat, no more random wakelocks. Not sure I like the quick tiles but otherwise a nice update!
Hey, can anyone please help me with the installation? I cant install it using the latest official TWRP as well as latest BluSpark TWRP.

On the latest bluspark TWRP all is good. Come on.
I went from OB 27 to Stable 4.5.1 just to download the full zip.
After that updated to 5.0.
It's pretty straight forward.
On other news, I have asked about this on the 3T thread as well.
I had already found this quirk on OB Oreo, was truly hopping that the stable would have this as ok as it should.
Can anyone confirm that Google drive backup has this information?
It's under settings/backup & reset/Google account
and it for sure shouldn't look like this.

I tried with the latest TWRP, but it gets stuck half the way. I waited for 20 minutes, it was stuck.
Bluetooth audio codecs can't be changed from Developer options. Oxygenos clean install Oreo
Wonder why
Was on Open Beta 27 with Blu_spark's twrp and r206 kernel.
- Downloaded full OOS 5.0 rom zip
- Flashed stock recovery
- Did local upgrade via the System Update
- reflashed blu_spark TWRP
- SuperSU 2.82 SR5
- reflashed blu_spark's r206 kernel
Profit

I'm on OOS 4.5.1 with TWRP and root. When an update comes out, I usually just wipe cache/dalvik, flash the full updated ROM and flash SuperSU, all using TWRP. Since this is a major update going from Nougat to Oreo, is it still OK to use this method?
What about Android system notification? I can't get rid of it.
Edit: found a "solution". I've Installed an app from G play called Hide running in the backgroud...Apparently, this is an Oreo issue present in any device.
PS: I'm not the developer of that app

Either wait for 8.1 or use an app to hide it.

Someone Please put up fresh links for the Oreo 8.0 build, the OP's drive account won't let anyone else download
Anyone knows if this works for updating from old 4.x to 5.x:
1. Flash full zip from within TWRP (Oreo compatible one)
2. Reboot to recovery after flashing OS
3. Flash Magisk (14.3 beta I want to flash)
4. Whipe dalvic+cache
5. Reboot to system
That's how I updated my previous Oos updates (without the things between brackets)... Never had issues before and this way also didn't trigger the dm-verity warning. But I see so many people having issues during open beta I rather be sure before I try...

*Depreciated* [Global/China] Dev/Stable/Alpha Firmware Packages for the Mi 6

Project depreciated! Leaving here for the time being.
See yshalsager's thread for automated firmware zips and quicker releases:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-6/development/firmware-xiaomi-mi-6-t3760924
Here will be the firmware packages from the latest Global/China MIUI ROMs for those of you using custom ROMs that require the firmware for radios etc to work.
I will try to keep it as up-to-date as possible so every time you need to update your ROM you can grab the newest firmware here and use it to keep firmware up-to-date as well.
Installation Instructions:
I recommend using firmware from the Stable builds, but the firmware from the other ROMs should be fine too. Let us know in the comments if you see any differences between them.
For Oreo ROMs use Oreo Firmware.
For Nougat ROMs use Nougat Firmware.
Follow advice from your ROM maintainer!
(or)
1. Wipes
2. Flash Firmware
3. Flash ROM
4. Other stuff you do in recovery

Sounds great! Installing this on top of an already installed ROM is not recommended?

In theory it should be fine since it doesn't replace anything to do with /system.
In practice I'm not 100% sure as I've seen a few people mess up their installs by flashing firmware after ROM.
You can just flash firmware then dirty flash your ROM to be sure.
Kind of like if you were updating your ROM just using the zip version you already are on.

So for NisseCool's LOS15, I should grab the Oreo Alpha Firmware now? Or just keep the China Dev Nougat?

Up to you.
I'm using the dev for LOS 15 but they should all work fine.
There doesn't seem to be noticeable differences between the firmwares.
Just giving the option to those who want it
should I wipes system before I flash this firmware?

No its not necessary.
Nothing from the zip should affect the system partition.
However I recommend flashing the firmware before flashing your ROM eg with an update or dirty flash just to be 100% sure.
But many users choose to just flash the updated firmware over their ROM and it works just as well
Maybe I'm just OCD about my install proceedures
Oreo Beta Firmware coming now. Link will be up today.

One of the latest ones
On LineageOS I'm using the latest stable firmware.
I haven't been able to update the firmware packages for the last week as I'm away ATM but will be back soon and can resume uploading them.
You can also make the zips yourself if you download the latest ROM from miui website and use one of mine as a template of what files to remove and what to leave.
And then compare the updater script to see what lines to remove.
Its really easy I'm just uploading for people that don't want to download an entire ROM

No sorry.
You can make it yourself very easily though by downloading the full package from end.muiu.com and then using one of my firmware packages as an example of what to remove and what to leave.
Then copy the updater-script from mine to yours or edit it to be the same and flash

Ok, i will try it, thanks a lot
I'm planning to use custom ROM like LOS, but everytime i flash, the mic always not working properly, for example when recording, my voice can't be recorded, but if i tap the mic, the tapping voice is recorded..in the MIUI 9 Stable and Beta, the voice can be recorded but we have to speak very closely to the mic and the voice result also very low..and when i tried to flash back to 8.2.2.0 the mic is working normally, so do u think it's the firmware problem?

Lineage 15.1 'Something went wrong' error?

I have a Samsung S6 running unofficial Lineage 15.1 along with Super OpenGApps with a customisation file to prevent several apps getting installed. Android Auto gets installed with the Super package. If I try and launch Android Auto it starts but crashes more or less immediately. I have attached a screenshot of the error message. It worked on Lineage 14.1 and it worked on a previous version of OpenGApps with Lineage 15.1 so it might just be Google need to fix the app.

I have edited the OpenGApps configuration file to prevent Android Auto getting installed and have installed the .apk manually to see if this makes any difference. I downloaded and installed all AA releases (3.9, 3.7, 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.2, 3.1, 3.0 and 2.9) and the behaviour is the same with each.
I have an Android 8.0 MTCD head unit in my car (Malaysk 8.0 ROM v3.2.1) and I sideloaded the latest AA .apk and it works fine here. I also installed it on my Samsung T310 tablet running unofficial Lineage 14.1 and it works fine here also. It seems it might be an Android 8.1 or Lineage 15.1 issue?

I installed OpenGApps yesterday and as usual thought I'd try Android Auto and bizarrely it opened... I went through the usual initial setup and now it works.
I thought it was an update to AA or Play Services. I have two phones - Samsung S6 and a S6 Edge, both running the same build of LineageOS 15.1, the S6 is my main phone and the S6 Edge has a cracked screen and I use it for testing new Lineage builds or apps before using them on my main phone. I installed the same OpenGApps to the S6 Edge and tried AA and it didn't work....
I then compared the versions of AA and Play Services. AA was the same, however my S6 showed Play Services version 15.0.90 and that this was an update from the Play Store. The S6 Edge showed version 14.8.49 and this was installed in the system as part of the OpenGApps install. There seems to be no way for you to update Play Services other than it doing it itself. So I copied the base.apk file from /data/com.google.android.gms (and then some random characters) off the S6 (via TWRP) and then installed it on the S6 Edge. Now Android Auto works on both.
Therefore the update to Play Services 15.0.90 from 14.8.49 seems to have fixed it - at least for me anyway.. I am not sure when the Play Services in OpenGApps will get updated to 15 though?
Broken again...
Installed the latest OpenGApps (1st March 2019) and Android Auto is broken again....
Google Play Services 15.1.78 gets installed and breaks it. Same error as before. Looks like I'll reinstall the previous OpenGApps I downloaded as this worked.
Do Google test things before they release them? Its like Cisco...

I just installed LineageOS 15.1 on my Z00T, hit the exact same error you uploaded, and decided to search XDA for info. Thanks for shedding light on this!
Hopefully AA gets fixed soon...
Would just flashing the older Google Play Services APK fix this issue???
Same problem with Nexus 6P with the latest LineageOS 15.1 and the latest OpenGapps (tried Aroma, Pico and Stock).
I had to switch back to the stock 8.1 to get AA working.
Just remembered posting in this thread... Looks like AA is fixed now!
AA from 3/19/2019, 4.1.590944-release
Google Play services 16.0.89

Xperia XZ, I cant install Google Apps.

Hello there,
I have a Xperia XZ. I Unlocked it and Im trying to install a custom ROM from our forum here.
I have installed
Lineage 19,
Lineage 15,
Crdroid.
When i install them, they work fine. Simple, clean and very light ROMS.
When I decide to Reinstall them with NikGapps, they don't work.
All of them show me that they have been installed (both ROM and NikGapps) but when i open the device, they keep give me an Error that there is not Google Service in the mobile (L15), but it doesnt let me to connect in the web to download OR it (L19) keeps TRYING to pass the first steps of NEXT NEXT NEXT at the start screen.
I follow every single step (I think)
Wipe/Clean
Install ROM
Install NikGapps
And then I turn on the device.
Do i have to make anything else?
When I visit NikGapps like, there are several versions of Gappa (CORE, BASIC, OMNI, etc. etc.) But there is not any specific link for the specific version I want but only ONE LINK for all. Do I miss something?
Is there here around any Custom ROM with ROM+NikGapps to install them together?
Thank you In advance.
