If you are an advanced Android user or a developer and flash
any Custom ROMs on your Android smartphone, then you should know about the
GApps package. It’s a custom ROM specific Google Apps package which offers all
the useful and necessary Google stock apps into the Custom ROM. The custom
firmware developers don’t include the preloaded Google apps or services into
the system. Now, the Android 10 is official and has been rolling out to a few
devices. Meanwhile, some of the Custom AOSP ROM developers also developing
Android 10 AOSP ROMs for particular device models. Therefore, you need to
download Android 10 Gapps which will work on any Android 10 Custom ROM.
After installing a Custom ROM based on Android OS, you also
need to flash GApps package on your device. Therefore, you can easily use all
the Google apps and services including Google Play and framework. If the Gapps
not available in Google’s Android OS, the user can’t use their devices
properly. Only the China-based ROMs are useful without Google Apps in China
region only.
The GApps package basically includes the Google Play Store,
Google Play Services, Gmail, Google Calendar, Clock, Maps, Photos, Drive,
Google Framework, etc. If your device has some of these applications, then your
device is already running GApps package. Most of the Custom ROMs (except Pixel
Experience ROM) doesn’t come with any GApps package. You have to flash the file
manually via a Custom Recovery after flashing the Firmware file. That’s
necessary.
Android 10 Gapps: BiTGApps_Q
There are a couple of GApps packages available online for
the older Android versions up to Android 9.0 Pie. But the BiTGApps for Android
10 is the minimal GApps package available for any Android 10 Custom ROM for
now. The BiTGApps Custom GApps package is meant for arm64 architecture devices.
The BitGApps file size is highly optimized than the other GApps Packages which
is also appreciable.
This Google Application package variant works on any AOSP
based Custom ROMs or the latest LineageOS 17 or any Android 10 Custom Firmware
easily which don’t have preloaded GApps file. GApps is an external zip package
which you can flash via a custom recovery such as TWRP easily. Once you have
installed the Android 10 Custom ROM, just install the Android 10 Gapps and
you’re good to go.
