Opengapps: "Google Sounds" included in Super?

[mrjayviper]

as above. The apps is listed in the "Links to Google Apps" but there's no entry on the default gapps-config.txt

Thanks

You can't prevent the installation of Sounds (com.google.android.soundpicker) with gapps-config because it's bundled in the core package for some reason.

So there are no keywords for Sounds applicable to the gapps-config @ the present.

You can read in Open GApps Advanced Features and Options:

... you can remove ANY system app on your device or ROM, with the EXCEPTION of (core) apps that are part of Open GApps itself.

As you can see in https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/blob/master/scripts/inc.buildtarget.sh

soundpicker) packagetype="Core"; packagename="com.google.android.soundpicker"; packagetarget="app/SoundPickerPrebuilt"

I wonder if @NicholasBuse is aware of that as he made the initial commit to add that app AFAIK and also the most recent one: https://gitlab.opengapps.org/opengapps/all/commit/1cfe395a2ae126ddb5fb12d43e3ba8467ca6654b

Sounds is fluff IMO as all ROMs have a Media storage or a file explorer to pick sounds and those do not have 4 services like Sounds & do not try to connect to the web.

It should be removed from Core and moved to packagetype="GApps" so Pico does not include it IMO.

Update: I installed super and Google sounds was NOT included. I didn't exclude it using gapps-config

Are you running Android 9.0 & up? From https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Super-Package

For 9.0+ also:
Google Sounds

Check in Settings > Apps > show system app > Sounds.

In Open GApps Wiki - Package Comparison:

Google Digital Wellbeing & Sounds requires Android 9.0 Pie.

Yes. I'm on lineage 16 (or whatever is the version for Android 9)

That's weird as Sounds was installed on Galaxy S5 G900M LineageOS 16.0 klte build 2019-09-02 + Open GApps Pico 2019-06-14 + LineageOS AddonSU.

Cold you attach your open_gapps_log.txt to a reply?

Edit: BTW what is your model number? Open GApps build date? Basic troubleshooting info IMO.
