wiki: Move older gapps to separate page
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
* That way we can also move the Open GApps message and maybe not give
  the impression they were an option in the first place
* Rephrase the "should" into a "must" for immediate install when user
  wants GApps
* Remove ATV Open GApps link completely from 18.1
* Correct 15.1 ATV link - it pointed to the wrong MTG folder

## Installation

Google apps should be installed via recovery **immediately** after installing LineageOS. Exact steps vary, and as such, you should see your device's installation guide [here]({{ "devices/" | relative_url }}) for specific instructions.
If you choose to install Google apps they must be installed via recovery **immediately** after installing LineageOS. Exact steps vary, and as such, you should see your device's installation guide [here]({{ "devices/" | relative_url }}) for specific instructions.

{% include alerts/important.html content="If you reboot into LineageOS before installing Google apps, you must factory reset and then install them, otherwise expect crashes.<br/>
This also applies when you experience issues and want to try an older or other package of these apps." %}

### Note regarding Open GApps

{% include alerts/important.html content="This only applies if Open GApps is listed as the GApps package for your Android version in the link column of the tables below in the 'Downloads' section. If Open GApps is not listed for your Android version, it is **not recommended**." %}

If you use Open GApps, they offer a variety of sizes of packages that include and overwrite different apps.

Since you can install any non included apps later, we only recommend the following package sizes (or smaller):
- For mobile devices: `nano`, as described in [Open GApps Package Comparison](https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Package-Comparison).
- For Android TV: `tvstock`, as described in [Open GApps TVStock Package Listing](https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/TVStock-Package).

If you use a larger package, **we can not guarantee** that everything will function on your device, as in many of these cases our included apps are overwritten in favor of the Google App equivalents.
If your device states that there is not enough space on any specific partition during install, you will need to use an even smaller package instead.


## Downloads

These packages are only dependent on your OS version and architecture, which can be found on each device specific info page in this wiki ([Device overview]({{ "devices/" | relative_url }})).
