EDIT: THREAD OUTDATED, NO LONGER NEEDED
UPDATE: See post #5 - auto update market 2.2.7 !
Hello all, I am posting this so that people can have the newest FULL gapps package: market, maps, gmail, facebook, nav, etc, etc - this is not the tiny gapps 1213 that AOSP built, those can be found here or here. Jaybob413 created the zip for his rom - which is awesome - and I take no credit for either the rom or the gapps. All credit goes to jaybob413. These gapps are from his rom, which is CM6.1+, and they work on his rom. Since they are CM6.1+ they should in theory work for all CM6.1+ sourced roms, but I have not tested them on anything else. I do not intend to answer any questions, I am not a dev, and you should not ask him questions either, there is a Q+A section for that if you can't find help here. I am merely posting this to reduce all of the silly "where is the market?" and "how do I get the new maps?" threads that are currently clogging the boards. This is a flashable zip in recovery, and will of course overwrite your current gapps. The first link below is to jaybob413's rom thread OP so you can read it. The second link below is to jaybob413's mediafire account, so you can download the gapps (the old 1020 gapps are there too if you prefer). Good day.

If anybody is getting "unknown error 18" after trying to install apps, I think I finally found out how to fix it. It seems to be for apps that have the ability to install to SD, even if you are trying to install them to internal. If you simply unmount your sd card in settings (and for some it worked when they ALSO deleted the file .android-secure from the sd with root explorer, I didn't have to) - yes I said unmount - you should be able to install whatever you want. It looks like it's a google issue and they're working on it.
If I flash this package on my phone, will it overwrite my currents gapps?

Well of course, that's the point thanks for the question, it reminded me to edit the OP to answer this.
New info !!! The newest market is now 2.2.7, which many of you may know. If you go to a sprint stock rom (like nfx most recent), and update your profile and prl(also new as of 12/20) you will get an auto update from 2.2.6 to the newest 2.2.7 market !!!
so if i flash nfx sprint rom, install new market and prl/profile updates, nand back to cm6.1, will it keep all the new market and prl updates?

yes it will keep, and the market is an auto update, nothing you have to do yourself there sorry for the delay, haven't been on here for a few days.
If I flash this then take off the old gapps from my sdcard will everything still be on my phone?

If you flash this it will overwrite the old gapps, so you can delete the old 1020 gapps zip. Once you flash any zip in recovery it doesn't need the zip file to function after that because it's in the phone's system.

OK, so I am trying to get GTalk back installed after flashing a new ROM (Cyanogen 4.2.15).
I have searched and there seems to be no direct answer, possibly some inferred ones but noone has been able to answer or point me in the right direction. Hell, I got nicely ignored on Cyanogen's IRC channel. So, unless you are some sort of developer, that' a pretty useless avenue to ask questions it seems.
Here's the scoop:
I reflashed the CM ROM after properly preparing my SD card to make use of Apps2SD option. Gmail works, GMaps works, no GTalk.
Yes I am aware that the Google Apps had to be separated from CMs ROM but that seems only partially true as the other apps are all there.
Since there is a link to the suite of GApps (http://kanged.net/mirror/download.php?file=gapps-ds-ERE36B-signed.zip) does anyone know if one can simply 'apply any zip' and get the GTalk functionality back? I don't care if I have to resign into Google/Gmail again, just want GTalk to work.
Phone Info:
HTC Dream/G1
Firmware 1.6
Radio 2.22.19.26i
CyanogenMod 4.2.15.1
Nandroid
Stock CM theme
8GB Class 4 MicroSD car (partitioned 4GB/4GB....yeah, it's goo big of an app partition, toying with resizing it instead of blowing it all away.)

you should be able to flash gapps and get it back but you can unzip that and grab gtalk and push it back using adb

When you say 'push' to you mean 'adb push' or 'adb install'. Just wanted to be clear as the install doesn't work.
"Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK]"
I get that when I tried to install. My understanding is that there is a mis-match in the adb I am using and the ROM that is on the phone. Is there a way to fix this?
If you are only using CM4 then you need to wipe, defanged base (all of the google apps), then flash CM4.
You shouldn't be flashing gapps. That is for CM5

And so my learning continues....
So, by copying the zip file to the SD card and choosing 'apply any zip', it seems that everyone is calling that 'flashing'?
Now here's the issue. I already flashed CM 4.2.15.1 and there was no GTalk included.
FYI, for people like me learning, a little more explanation goes a long way. Good thing I'm one of those types who knows how to use Google as opposed to the types who get pissed by people who just use terms and assumes everyone knows them....
So through my wanderings I found this link:

Which led me to here
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/DangerSPL_and_CM_5_for_Dream
Just did a nandroid backup, about to copy stuff from SD card and then upgrade to CM 5/Gapps!
Wsh me luck!
SUCCESS! CM 5.0.7 installed!!
And GTalk works
Thanks all involved with making these things possible!
hello!
I have tested the new ROM cyanogenmod 7
but I have a big problem... when I instal the gapps I have a message in recovery
"E:signature verifying failed
installation aborted"
I tried with differents gapps (one on the post of CM7 and one in frandroid named universal dpi)
Have you got a idea for this problem...? because a androphone without gapps is not very cool...
PS:sorry if I made spelling mistake but I'm french...
Do you install using Rom manager?
Hm did u try this gapps?

You need to install GApps, which is linked in this very thread, a few posts up.
I actually have the same problem.
No market on a fully working CM7.1 HTC Legend.
I have tried flashing the google apps zip posted above, and I've tried flashing both Gapps zips on the official clockworkmod site. I have stuff like google talk, but NO market. Anyone know whats up (or basically where to get a gapps pack working on a 2.3.7 legend that actually includes the market)? Or maybe any other way to get the market?
Do you Have added your Google Account?

try adding market widget to the homescreen,run it once,that should generate market icon in the drawer,remove the widget from the homescreen afterwards
you should always wipe partitions before flashing
doesnt give the option to enter google account info when i restore phone nor when i 1st flashed cm7. tried to download them from browser and it says they are already installed, im guessing because they were installed last time the phone was signed into market prior to flashing. guess its back to froyo til its fixed.

I did wipe cache etc, but somehow market didn't end up into app drawer. This did solve the issue! Thanks
i just downloaded CM7 on my touch 4g and it has no market, is this normal
You have to download and install the gapps.zip as well. Due to licensing issues they cannot include the google apps in the rom. Gapps=google apps and can be found in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=956296
Just put the zip on your sdcard, go into recovery and install the zip. When you go back into CM7 you will have the google apps.
thanks man, i was looking forever and was like WTF
I have a question for some of you. I had been doing some research on CM9 for NC. I found a download, ( Though not on this site) along with some additional help from this website.
I installed everything to my NC and low and behold, it all works!! It looks just like my Toshiba Thrive tablet, except it's showing that its running Android 4.0 version.
Now for the drawbacks.... it has NO sound, NO Market, etc... Is there any way to install those? Or has this been the problem all along??
Thanks!
What links you got the CM9 from?
I got CM9 running with sound and market is working just fine.
I knew better than to trust another site, but ... I went to androidfamily.net. It had a "how to" to install CM9 ...
Could you give me downloads you used?
Thanks alot!!!
Check out the Samiam nightly builds in the development forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444943
You basically need to flash three files that are available from there. Latest nightly main CM9 ROM, Google Apps (Gapps) and the telephony-permissions fix.
That will give you market, working sound and best CM9 for Nook at the moment.

I see the Gapps file, and the telephony-permissions fix file, but where is the CM9 main file you mentioned? Am I overlooking it?
I tried again, using the same CM9 file, and then installed the Gapps file you mentioned along with the telephony permissions fix. Still no market. Everything else worked fine!

Are you connected to wifi? When loading a new rom, sometimes the market doesn't show up until hooked up to wife.
If this doesn't solve your problem, then I would start from scratch. Can you boot into CM recovery? If so, go into mounts and storage and format data, system and cache. Back into main screen and factory reset and wipe cache partition. (so many debates on if this is all totally necessary, but I have had glitches with installs when I have not done every one of these steps in this order).
Install CM9 (I do recommend samiam's build. It works flawlessly on my nook.)
Choose reboot option in recovery. Connect to a wireless network.
Samiam has included Rom Manager in his build. I use this to boot into recovery. Install Sam's gapps, telephony fix and boot animation fix. Reboot.
Hope this helps. Post if you need more detailed instructions.
I don't think you are flashing the right ones or are missing one of the 3. There is a patch that fixes market, boot animation and SOD issues. In unofficial cm9 forum.

I am getting a little confused. When I clicked on the CM9 build....it shows parent directory and then all the nightlies. Which one do I use? I also tried to just wipe it and reinstall CM7... I did manage to get the market running the CM7. So, I think I must have just downloaded the wrong nightly??

You can click on the latest one (Jan. 28.) and download. I always check the end of samiam's thread to see if there are any hiccups on the latest builds. I am running Jan.26 build (haven't updated yet) and it is running beautifully for me.

Is there anyone out there with the same type problem that corrected it?

From Recovery you want to format cache and system (under mounts). Also format data unless you already have a good working set up and you want to preserve all your settings, apps etc.
Then you should be flashing 3 zips in this order
update-encore-2012xxxx.zip where xxxx is the latest
gapps-ics-4.0.3-sam-noinit.zip from the misc folder
telephony-permission-fix.zip from the misc folder
The gapps zip in particular has the google apps including the market. Note that if you are comparing with the CM7 MiRaGe ROM then that has the gapps in including the market already in whereas with CM9 you have to flash them in separately.
If you have formatted data then when you reboot it should take you straight into a setup where you set up wifi, then sign in to your google account. The market app then should work OK.

Went to CWM and did the above ..went to mounts and storage..format cache and system, and data. After I did this, I hit the power button, once to go back to the screen to install the zips. Now, when I hit that power button, the following message came up 4 times... E: can't mount/cache/recovery.log. Could this have something to do with it??
I tried your instructions again, and No Market. You said that it would take me to a screen to set up wi fi ..but it doesn't. My screen is black, with a clock, a picture of a camera, and box that says gallery.
I am just going to have to go back to CM7!
I think I finally thought it out. For whatever reason when I put the gapp file in my NC it shows installing..but I don't think it worked. CM7...No problems! Have installed twice today and both times had the Market.
CM9... runs great...but no market!
Strange. The only thing that I can think of at the moment is that you have a bad download of the gapps file.
If you haven't tried it before then I'd suggest downloading it again. You should then just be able to flash that one on its own.
---------- Post added at 05:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:34 PM ----------
As a double check the zip should be 16,874,937 and you should be able to open it on PC and see the apps files in the system/app folder with vending.apk

I checked, and BTW I'm using gapps-ics-4.0.3 -sam noinit ......my download is 18,275 KB ? and when I clicked on it to check the apps files as you suggested this is what it showed... 3 folder icons with MACOSX, META-INF, system. And then directly underneath the folders were 3 other things with the same words as the top 3 ... NO vending.apk ?? I clicked on the one that had system, and all the apps are there. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Would you tell me which gapp file your using?
Thanks for helping me!!!
I go the Gapps I use from the link
http://sphsolutions.net/android/Encore/Nightlies/Misc/
However, it looks like I got a slightly earlier one (probably 1 day before). I retrieved the current one to compare them. The later one has the YouTube app in which explains the difference in size. All the Google apps are exactly the same as in the one I use and the Vending app is there as well under system/app
If you can't see that folder then there is something wrong with your zip download.
The other difference from the earlier one I had is that it looks like the later one had been put together on a Mac system as it has the extra __MACOSX folder and a few .DS_Store folders which are not really part of the required zip but should be harmless.
Just to check I just tried installing with the latest nightly 20120128 and the later gapps version and I got the market OK.
So two thoughts: either your download is still bad or maybe you have signature verification turned on in your clockwork and that is causing this gapps install to fail whereas the main ROM is passing and also the gapps when you do CM7. I have signature verification disabled (which I think is the default). Try toggling the signature verification menu item and get it set to disabled.
What and where is the signature verification? And..... how do I get there?
Hi all,
so a few days ago I made the move to flash from stock rom to the nightly of EOS, of course deleting settings and installing GAPPS as part of the steps too.
I see theres now another nightly out there, and would like to update again.
I'm just wondering however......do I need to redownload and flash GAPPS every time I install the EOS nightly updates, or was that only needed for the first time moving?
thanks
You generally need to flash gapps again after each ROM flash if they aren't included. I just keep a copy of the gapps zip somewhere on my internal storage so it's always there to flash.
Maybe someone can chyme on in this. I have been flashing ROMS for a very long time, recently I have noticed after doing full wipes,flashing the ROM and then flashing Gapps. Once booted up I see none of the Gapps?? I have to go download Gmail, Youtube, Maps etc after the fact.
Has something changed or am I missing something, using the most recent Gapp package file.

AFAIK the newer GApps packages haven't (for a while now) included the apps that are available in the Play Store, such as Gmail, YouTube, etc. They've typically just got the necessary system apps/files in.
Obviously this will depend on where you're getting your GApps packages from though. If the dev of the ROM you're using is providing their own package they might well have included some of the other apps as well.
aha - thanks for confirming - yup better keep that copy of gapps to hand then I guess.
On another non-related note.......other than overclocking configured, is there any point in going to this Motley kernel I've seen mentioned?
Don't care for overclocking, but if it perhaps helps to improve compatability in any games or suchlike then maybe worthwhile

Thanks for the update, makes sense. I had thought separate Gapps packages would have it all. Might just have to make or find my own all in one package
