[Q] How do I install g apps on cm7? - T-Mobile LG G2x

I'm trying to figure out how to install the google apps on my cm7, i just flashed it and it was my first time flashing anything, so now i need the google apps because i don't even have the market on my phone now.
if anyone can help me i will appreciate it very much, and yes i searched but found nothing that could help me.

I just finished asking a question about this too. The regular Email app is not working right? or are you talking about the Gmail app?

well i couldn't get the network to work(4g/3g) but i was able to make phone calls, so i uninstalled it for now.
With the couple hours i spent tinkering with CM7 i fell in love with it, i will keep checking on the updates for a more stable version.

Im my experience CM7.1 is not really stable yet on the G2x. I guess that depends on your definition of stable, but I was having a lot of problems, even with the release canditate. I absolutely loved CM on my nexus one, but it might be better to wait for a stable build for this phone unless your helping out with bug tracking and what not.

Yeah that's what i'm going to do, wait for a stable build.

no email in general, gmail or email.
im on nightly 114 and no problems at all

Which Magic Rom-Build do you use on G1? H or G?

I´m very doubtful, which release i should take. in the "porting-thread", it´s about fifty-fifty, isn´t it??
Do the Google one. The HTC one (for me) wouldn't do EDGE or 3G. I'm using the Google build right now with no problems at all
Neither really, but leaning more to HTC because of exchange. I honestly just don't want to set my phone up again. Takes forever.

Minker, are you even able to get the Exchange sync working? Mine keeps saying Processing and never stops until I get a Force Close.
I'm using 5.0.2.H Exchange and Google sync work great on the same time on it for me.
Yup, worked for me on Saturday. Sent myself an e-mail and everything.

I'm on 5.0.1H ZH (due to the fact that it's pointless to have Chinese support and not the fonts). What was changed in 5.0.2H to get Exchange working?
the Exchange client is now saying 'Synchronizing Email'... will watch and see what happens
UPDATE : IT WORKS!
I'm running g, I tried h, but h is still a little too buggy for me, plus all the chinese stuff gets in the way, and I couldn't get the soft keyboard to work.

Used 4.5G and on 5.0.1H now, H is working find for me.

G does not have the HTC Exchange sync if I'm not mistaken.
You're correct. G does not have Exchange Sync
I just had over 200 contacts duplicated in my G1 as they were on my Exchange and my Gmail, and now I have no way of getting rid of the duplicates. Looks like I'm going to have to clear out all data (reflash) and start from scratch
I'm loving 5.0G. The only problems with it that bother me are the slow and often nonfunctional autorotate, and of course the myriad of applications that don't work properly (or at all) anymore.
Anyone that has exchange/activesync working in 5.0.xH builds mind helping me get mine working?
I keep trying to get it to work but I keep getting "Authentication Failed. Please verify username and/or password."
I can get TouchDown to work no problems but one thing I noticed is that TouchDown has an option for Exchange 2003 (which I have to check for TouchDown to work) but the Exchange/ActiveSync in 5.0.xH does not. Anyone know how to set the Exchange/ActiveSync to use Exchange2003 or know what I'm doing wrong?
Please help.
Thanks

I noticed a lot of those. But I'm wondering if these are apps that will be broken in the new release and require patches by their developers. That isn't all to uncommon when it comes to OS updates.
I noticed apps dealing with the screen brightness (flashlight, useful switches[flashlight mode], power manager, etc) tend to Force Close.
im luvin it!!!
i just found out about the haykuro releases yesterday... after a lot of reading i went for the 5.0.2H version because of the supposed prettyness of graphics and such. i got to say.. im loving it. i feel better and better that i bought this phone over the diamond, its soo much more exciting i guess haha. i have had no problems so far, other than some apps not working. everyone should get the overclock app from the market...
Yes the H is a lot prettier.

There was an issue with DXtop not working on the new firmware, but they released an update to fix it. Hopefully all the affected developers will update their apps when Google releases a final version of this: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/04/getting-ready-for-android-15.html
For those having problems setting up exchange, try doing it over wifi ( if you are on Edge network )
After much reading and allot of personal testing, i went with H. It wasnt about the graphics being better. It was more about features. I like the camera and camcorder. Plus the overall feel to me is just right. I would say to anyone on the fence, just test both for 24 hours each and see what one you prefer. Thats what i did and i am MORE than happy. Haykuro is the man. He and his cohorts are doing a tremendous job with this project. I anxiously look forward to the future and cant wait to see whats next.

MARKET HELP: Cant Download

Not entirely sure when this started but I noticed last night that when I try to download anything from the Market, it goes to "Starting Download" and thats as far as it goes, period. One has been on that screen for the last 7 hours while I slept. Any ideas?
Currently on: Haykuro 5.0G
It's a known issue. Either switch to 5.02H or JF's builds or wait until tomorrow to see if the Friday update fixes things.
this has already been posted in the original thread.
no solution yet.

Did you try :

-> Removal of the battery

as soon as the official release of the android 1.5 .. there's probably no way around it .. no one is supposed to be using it .. my guess .. they are making modifications to the market or something .. people being able to access it prematurely could muck up the works
You have got to be kidding me!!! my market was working the other day then all of a sudden it wouldnt download.
I really like this rom, but without the ability to load all my applications its useless.

haykuro’s blog: updates, and google hates
Posted on April 16th, 2009 haykuro
well i havent updated in a while, so just putting the word out for those who havent checked..
5.0.2r2 is out.. its just a temp “fix” for market problems.. “market problems?!” Yup..
Google has started blocking market connections from firmware 1.5. Im hoping to have this resolved by tomorrow (update fridays).
Well see what happens.

I use Haykuro 4.5 and prefer it over the 5.x builds. Noticed this morning I was unable to download from market. I did flash the 5.0.2Hr2 and had Market working fine. Hopefully (as I'm back to a nekkid 4.5 now) he'll have an update to 4.5 fixing the Market issue.
In the meantime, here's the apk for Astro and AppManager to at least get the free apps back on.
C'mon...no need for another thread about this...
Im running 5.0.2H, I still have full access.

This is how XDA has been since my wizard flashing days. I wonder what mythical XDA forum you guys are all remembering.
I miss the XDA where people who knew anything would help (even if just through sig links) and the d-bags who just complain about NOOBS come and go. Oh wait, that's still how it is.
I think we just need a irc room where we can idle, *****, and bicker at each other.
Hi,
I am on my 2nd day of 5.02h and no download problems.
I really like this firmware.
I would recommend it.
There are still many members here that are willing to help all.
This is a great forum.

[ROM] Gumbo 2.1

Here's the link, I'm sure he will post it here a little later but for those who can't wait

You just know this sub forum is BURNING HOT right now when this thread has 79 views in 12 minutes LOL
Yup, 1 minute from downloading left. LOL, exciting stuff happening all over XDA today.
i really wish i wasn't so stubborn on waiting for camera and mms.
I am still waiting too.... but its ok, I am happy trying them out and seeing where we are at. I will be more than happy whenever it happens
2.1 uh oh
Tehe, thus far I've held off on the 2.1 builds because stuff hasn't been working, I guess since I'm backing up my device and switching ROM builds today anyway I'll have to just accidentally pop this on there and see what happens :-D
Edit: Was unable to get the Market to work at all. No FC message, just fails to start.
Doesnt have all market apps
Olive juice gbhil!!!
Just because I'm straight and don't feel like saying "I love you." I guess you could substitute "Alligator food" in there too.
Thanks for the hard work!

Can anyone confirm if the Verizon FIOS Mobile Remote app is or isn't available in the Market with this ROM?
Wow, this ROM FREAKING FLIES.
The pinch to zoom on the home screen is blazing fast. I am extremely impressed. 2.1 on our devices is going to be awesome. Thanks again for your hard work Gbhil!!!!
**Edit**
Location, like all other 2.1 ROMs I've tried though, is off. It initially said I was in Kansas City, which is right, but it quickly changed to "Washington" which is what the other roms said, which DEFINITELY isn't right
Could someone who has run both this one an flipz new release compare the two? I'd really like to know how they differ if they do at all. Thanks in advance

Oh trust me I know that reading is a good thing, I'm not that big of a n00b lol, but I just wanted some first hand experiences like how the ROMS feel, not necessarily what's in them
To add to my previous post, the location services are working fine, it just seems (like in other 2.1 roms) that the location noted in the HTC home screen clock is what isn't working properly.
I get the correct location returned in one of my test apps, and see myself fine in the Google maps v4, so I dunno...maybe there's something missing with the HTC Location Services apk?
Oh yeah, and SetCPU is awesome on this rom too
would i have to wipe this coming from fresh rom??
i had force close on "3g Update"?!?!
I just noticed: txt messages after daylight savings got a bit screwy for some people, where messages would be stamped an hour earlier and be out of order. Now Ive sent and recieved a few txts and they are showing the correct order and timestamps.
Anyone else?

There was an update at the top of the beta signup page, that they were no longer accepting new testers. Shouldn't be a surprise if you got a rejection notice. lol

that's prob not going to work anyhow as they are requiring you to provide your IMEI and Skyfire relies on a server so it prob will be locked to authorized IMEIs.

I agree and didn't appreciate it. If they only wanted 30 testers then they didn't need to ask publicly for testers. I regret sending them my IMEI which they requested BEFORE they rejected me. I can wait for Flash 10.1 which will negate any need for Skyfire, imo.

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend releasing the apk if anyone has it. I was on blackberry when Skyfire was alpha testing for bb and the app was leaked. It took Skyfire about 2 hours to shut the whole alpha test down for a month while they revamped their procedures for security checking the testers. now the whole bb test is gone.
I'd say just be patient on this one.

hahah I remember that one. I had it on my bb for 20 mins before it stopped working. BTW skyfire just announced that they stopped developing for bb for now until 6.0 is out.
For those who want flash that bad just install the Desire rom it has flash. It cool but it is very choppy for my taste.

I was and have always been under the impression that MIUI didn't require GApps..? The ability to log into a Google account is built-in, and the ROM comes with Gmail.
I have noticed that Jeff stopped updating the ROM on MIUI.us. I can continue updating the ROM there if needed, but I'd rather have someone else take it over since I have recently left Sprint and their crappy data speeds.

No need! I have not stopped, just waiting for a stable ICS build to port instead. There have been minor changes that don't really effect us, so I haven't been porting weekly.
So I'm going to apologize for the stupid question ahead of time, I promise I'm usually not this slow on Mondays. But quick question.. I have a 3G symbol (I think I understand the meaning of that), a signal bar with a E, and a signal bar with a 1X.....
What are all the signal bars for?

1x is not 3g..what you get when 3g is not available..like sending msgs and phone calls..
if im not wrong...e represents edge and h is hspda
It is that way because China made a lot of changes go the cdma code. Everything works besides how the signal is shown

edit - from: http://miuiandroid.com/2012/01/miui-rom-no-release-this-week/
Hi everyone,
Should of probably mentioned this earlier in the week but i’ve been exceptionally busy with work.
Due to the new year in China there will be no development ROM this week for MIUI. Normal development will resume in the coming days following from the weekend.
Please dont spam the comments with ‘Please port my phone’ type questions or otherwise. They will be deleted.
We hope everyone has a great weekend and we’ll be back in next week with a nice new update and hopefully some more exciting news on ICS and other developments we’ve been aware of by Xiaomi.
Thanks,
Mark
