ICS and ROM Quick Questions - Xoom General

Sorry guys, I unlocked, rooted and flashed the latest EOS nightly #33. All has gone well, but I cant see the Market app, or find a way to link my Google account to get my calendar, mail and apps restored.
Could someone nudge me in the right direction please?!
thanks
EDIT - In case anyone has this problem, the link to the GA package is below:

You'll need to install the GApps package linked in the thread for the ROM. AOSP ROMs generally do not include the Google Apps by default and must be installed separately.
There should be a .zip file you can flash from recovery.

You need to flash gapps as those are google apps and required to be a separate download. Check the eos thread, they link the latest gapps there (v8 I believe)

ok thanks, will look now, and any ideas about the Android Market app?

You could try uninstalling the Market App in the settings and then have it redownload the market. That should work.

It came with the Google Apps package - I have included the link in my first post just in case anyone has the same problem. Thanks for you help all

thanks again

(REQ) Market apk

Hi
I have a uk milestone and I messed up my android market
Can anyone upload his market apk and also market updater
please
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App
That is pretty much impossible because Google doesnt share the market app for download.. they have copyright on it or something like that, i dont know exactly the reason but you can always google it
Not an official google apk
U just need to pull the market apk from the /system/app directory it is called vending.apk and marketupdater.apk
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App
I have uploaded the two apks from my Milestone. Let us know if they work.
Hi,
I don't know what happened with my market app. Before I rooted and installed GOT rom, I had seen that the market app had comments in another tab/button. Now after using GOT, I restored my phone to the latest original stock version (still rooted). I don't see that change any more
Anyone please confirm this?
Thanks!

otherwise you could've just gone on ROM Manager and downloaded the Gapps package under CM
Force Closing
I've downloaded and Installed the APK thru QuickOffice... but when I tried to download using the Market App, it is force closing... *sigh* now i'm thinking of buying and HTC or Samsung android phone.

That's not the latest market your stuck with the old version. But if you take the vending.apk file out of this archive and put it in with the gapps.zip: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9741682&postcount=56
then you have the new market and this one also adapts the language of the market to the language of the phone. Just installed and tested it.
Good luck with it
I do have problem with market (FC) after restore from Titanium Backup. Download Gapps package and update from OR is the fast and easy way to recover market.

[Q] CM 6.1 RC2 Market Issues

I upgraded CM 6 to CM6.1 RC2 and everything went smooth, except when you turn the nexus one on there is no market or gmail from google as if they some how are no longer part of the phone.
When I upgraded I did it from the phone itself so when i was ask if i wanted google add on I click yes and once it went to the booting process and the new CM6.1 RC2 was running I could not find the market or my contacts I could not sync my phone to the google server...why?
Hum.....read the thread and find the link to Google apps. You will then need to flash Google apps on top of your CM6 ROM.
I know sometimes the Google apks fail to download in ROM manager.
So should i download the CM 6.1 RC2 from the phone since i have the ROM manager and not get the google add on and download it from a PC, save it to da sd card n then do it manually?...please explain...thank you!

Download them both from the pc to sdcard .. then flash in recovery .. cm first then add ons
I just went to cyanogenmod website n i guess i was not da only one with this problem!...apperently you can no longer download CM 6.1 RC2 because not having android market or gmail...please if someone can help develop this ROM correctly...thank you!
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Uh, I have no idea what you're talking about. CM6.1 RC2 is still available for download. If you still have it loaded, grab the GAPPS package from the wiki (link below) and flash it over your current ROM (no need to wipe first) to get the Market, Gmail, etc... back.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Passion:Installing_CyanogenMod
I notice if you go to cyanogenmod website and click on downloads and then experimental and you see CM6.1 RC2 and if you click on it it says you can not download it anymore because it was reported as broken because not having Market or gmail.
On the same website if you go to forums and then see nexus one it will give you a link to download it from the links they have on that forum....so my question is which one is really true?
any ideas?
Considering I'm running CM6.1 RC2 with everything working perfectly, I'd say it's not a problem with the build....
Edit: I just checked the page - you can actually still download the zip. Someone just reported the file as broken, but that isn't a note from the devs (they have better grammar).
CM Roms haven't included Google apps in a long time.
Google asked that their programs weren't included because they are copyrighted material. Android being open, you can still download the GAPPS (Google Apps) pack and flash over CM's latest.
This has been the method as long as I've been on Android.
I got downloaded it from your xda website and it works!!!...now can someone tell me what is the mayor changes from CM6.0 and CM6.1 RC2? the only thing I can notice is the fm radio...anybody can tell me what also is good with this ROM?
By the way....I love cyanogenmod!!...much better than the stock one!...Keep up with the good work developers!
Anybody has some input as what is da mayor change between CM 6.0 and CM6.1 RC2?...i want to explore my new ROM....any ideas where should i start?

You could do a little Google'ing and find out...maybe a search for "CyanogenMod Changelog"?
Here, I did the hard work for you:

Ooo let me be another canadian to google that for you !

Look at the change log. Lots of differences.

[Q] Cyanogen Mod

please help. i have recently installed a cyanogen rom onto my htc hero and it works lovely. the only problem is there is no app market and im not sure how to get it. is there anyway i can an app market app? the link i downloaded is update-cm-6.1.0-rc1=hero-signed.zip

Hello Jamie,
because of legal issues the google apps is not included in the rom. You can find a zip to flash in the official thread of that ROM, http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/11667-cyanogenmod-61-for-hero-v610-12072010/
Br,
Henrik
Reflash the rom. It comes with the market right? did you do your wipes etc? failing that, you can download a market apk i think from somewhere in 'general'. That will be the updated market anyway. I sometimes have to flash it as the older market doesnt seem to show all of my downloads...annoying when updates are avail. anyway, i'd say reflash.

Market App Not there

Hi,
I installed CM 7 Nightly 103 and it came without Market App. I installed Market App from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831782
Symp.Green.market.v7.2.2.zip
Flashed it and restarted . It is not visible under All application and secondly Faq 4 mentions on the thread to purge all data.
Even that option is not there. Help me out guys
Flash GApps Package. Not the Patched Market since it doesn't work anymore:
http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip
I think, but I'm not sure, that you will have to install "Google app something", abreviated as "GAPs" to get the google applications working under CM. Normaly you can find it in the first post of CM7.
Hope this helps
Erwin.

The Arabic mod will work on the 1337 ROM and the Tweaked Modded ROM, but not the CM11 ROM.
As for your app sideloading issue, would you go into more detail about it?

The side loading has been fixed. Thanks for your answer on the Arabic. I should try that.
The only issue left, is that I am unable to connect to Gmail or Google market. It gives me a server error when/post login. I have used the nooter package on l337 rom, however post startup I only have 50mb memory or less. And I get the server error for gmail/Google market /search maket. And using nooter opackage 1&2 on tweaked rom makes the St breaks the rom post start up.
Is there a different package for gapps for tweaked Rom? I would like to have search market especially.

The whole Google issue has been pretty rampant lately, and no one seems to have found a fix yet. I'd recommend just going sans Google; it's what I do, and it causes no problems.
