NikGapps - Releases

2021-06-07 09:16:26 New Stable Release is up! (Q/R) (7th June 2021)

Changelog:
- Fix bootloop with OTA update due to magisk addon.d conflicts
- Skip building Core, CoreGo, Pixelize addons as those don't make sense and do not benefit being addons

Note:
- if your ota update is broken due to this conflict, I recommend you to update to this build. If you can clean flash, great, if you can't clean flash, delete /system/addon.d folder and dirty flash latest NikGapps and magisk

Today's canary release (16th May) comes with a lot of base changes

Changelog:

- Update how Busybox is installed
- Add support for system_ext partition (hopefully helps with storage full issue)
- Rebase the installer script (optimized to a great extent)
- Dynamically choose which partition to install gapps to (the installer will pick the partition which is writable)
- Prevent GBoard and GoogleClock addons from flashing before first boot (this needs to be flashed before first boot)
- detailed changelog here

Need feedback on this release! Kindly share installation logs after you flash it.

Enjoy! :) Open / Comment

2021-04-21 09:12:46 Hey everyone,

Latest canary release has been pushed with playstore updates (for android R, Q will follow up soon) and major script changes around mounting the partitions.

Hoping to get some feedback on latest canary, please post your feedback on how it works out for you along with installation logs.

Dirty flashing over last build will work just fine.
