The same way you flashed CM, download, put on the root of your sd card, and flash them. I believe these are the latest: http://cmw.22aaf3.com/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
Thank you so much it works great thank you again

So you obviously know way more then I do about this what is the best rom in your opinion? And does that app pack work on all roms or just cyanogen mod?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
It works on all ROMs except the CM9 alpha that was released. Until you're less new you might want to hold off on that until there is a stable release.
Thanks the cyanogen nightly that I installed is slower then the stock one .just wondering what roms are best

Google Euroskank and go to the first one that pops up, hit the P999 tab and grab the latest and grab any of the custom kernels that strike your fancy or do what I started to do and try one for a week or two and see how I like it.
I thought those were only for the O2x not g2x

Nope, just make sure you choose P999 from their page. The official CM got was down and I liked their nightlies and had no problems I didn't have on the stable release.

So what would be the best in your opinion to use
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Kernel?
It depends: If you want battery life get Trinity ELP (I that's the one, the one which only allows to OC to 1.1GHz) if you want pure power go for Faux, if you want a balance (don't know if it has Voodoo sound though) go for Dragon for CM7 (not OTA).
So I take it that you can use different kernals with different roms and you flash them the same as the roms?

Most, if not all of the newer custom roms are debloted, meaning the bloat has been removed in OTA based roms. If its AOSP or CM based, it's built without bloat.

I want to switch between MIUI and CM7 and I was hoping that I could just flash each one whenever I want. Im currently running CM 7.0.3.1 for the HTC evo 4G if that helps. Thanks for any help
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
You can just make sure u wipe everything before u flash it and it should go alright
Make a backup of your current rom in recovery. Wipe factory/data, cache, davlik, flash the other rom, flash gapps, then make a backup of that rom. Then you can switch between the backups in recovery.
First of all thanks for the help guys but I think I didn't explain what I was looking for very well. I wa hoping that I wouldn't have to wipe and stuff. I wanted to just be able to keep my data folder and just have to flash the Rom each time without having to wipe and after restore

You'll have to do a full wipe whenever switching to a different ROM. The only time you do not have to do a full wipe is when you are changing nightlies or updating your current ROM.
All right thanks. U mind telling me which one is better in ur opinions?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Actually their both good! I started out w/ CM, the nightlies have a few bugs at times, but most of them eventually get resolved..!! At the moment though i use Evo Decks and/or MIUI, just because everything works w/ these roms and they agree w/ Tiamat kernels very well, fast and smooth and battery life is great!!! If you like changing the look of your phone often, then i'd go with MIUI coz of the theme manager...

I like CM7 but I kinda just reminds me of my old moto Droid but Miui thats just a turn in a new direction. I would choose MIUI over CM7 but both are great! Right now im running the rom from E prophecy, its just sense but im a flash-a-holic so I wanted to try it out.
All right awesome thanks a lot guys. Tonight I'm gonna titanium backup and then flash Miui. Thanks again guys

switch to savage zens rom. Its super fast, stable, and fuzes elements of both MIUI and CM7.

Just a heads up if you want 4G/Wimax MIUI doesn't have it yet. CM7 and Savaged-Zen do.
Im gonna download it tonight and try it out. Thanks
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
i switch between miui, cm7, and savaged-zen pretty often. the latest miui builds seem slow on my phone no matter what kernel, and the latest builds of savaged zen dont agree with my phone, so im stuck with cm7 for the moment which is not half bad
Well looks like nostalgia kicked in because it still prefer CM7 out of the 3 roms mentioned here unless anybody has any other AOSP rom suggestions

I dontknow if the one click method works with gb. I rooted mine before one click was available and have t kept up on it.
All u gotta do I follow the steps for installing cwm, backup ur current set up, then flash whatever rom you want. These steps are in the development section.

This is probably a great place to start:

If you're looking for a ROM based off the the stock OTA 2.3.3., Weapon is really popular.
Otherwise, you can stick to the guide and install a nightly of CM7 or, one of my favorites, doniqcc's EaglesBlood which is CM7 based.
Oh alright thanks dudes
I'll give it a go and see what happens

You might mess up stuff. Tsugi's framework is different from stock. He added the toggle widgets that you see and probably did other changes as well. So it might be trickier than that. Do you not wanna leave Tsugi?
Because there's other alternatives to the stock ROM.
Id be willing to flash weapon g2x as ive used whitehawks roms on other phones too and they're flawless. But maybe ill try eaglesblood once he updates. Thanks for your help!

I just recently installed CM9 with faux's kernel and it was overly buggy! It froze, apps constantly crashed, the screen would turn black if I turned the phone horizontal. For you slow folk, that's sideways.
Within 10 minutes of using CM9, I decided I was reverting to CM7! So, I booted into CWM and wiped everything; Dalvik, battery stats, cache, and did a full wipe. I reinstalled everything pertaining to CM7 and "tried" to restore. This is where I encountered a strange issue! When the restore got to the point of retiring data, it started to display 1 byte hex for awhile. The process took 3 times the norm. It then produced an error while trying to restore .Android.secure. I eventually fixed but has to delete all my backups since they all became "corrupted", if that's what you wanna call it. Thoughts?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Your poor experience on CM9 was probably because of a bad flash or bad wipe. Did you use the nullifier? I suggest you try the Hellfire Sandiwch, while it isn't perfect, it comes close to it.
The correct terminology is landscape by the way.
Try eb aosp. Its a great rom.

I don't think you should be flashing.
Can't tell if it's a troll or not.
ICS is not ready yet and most likely will not be until we get some sort of leak on ICS drivers. So if your phone is daily driver and you need it for work, CM7.2 is the only way to go, it also has much more features, more stable, and faster.
No, not trolling. I actually "assumed" that derkernel was G2X specific. Sometimes I don't look into stuff as much as I should! I've been busy all day on top of it. I'm replacing my head gasket on my truck so I guess I didn't think much of it at the time. But I don't see it as a stupid move! I mean there are so many different kernels out there, I just assumed it was just another name for the G2x kernel....Tuna. its running smooth tho. With the exception of the video camera and not being able to view recorded video.
Thanks buru I'll check out the bionix kernel too.

It is the bank of america app, its been released for ics and jellybean already....
My best bet would be that it only has gingerbread support for this specific device, but i'm unsure of what compatibility options you can set. and based upon your response, this isn't an known issue that you know how to fix.
Is Dark Knight ever going to become jellybean, or is it stuck at ics since its a port?
You could try changing the build.prop just to download it, other apps may not like it, do change it back after its installed
