Hey there! I am having a problem with Google Play. I am trying to include it in my Custom Rom, replacing Market with it.
I downloaded it and insterted in system/app, but market was still there.
I tried extracing it it from a backup, but the problem still existed...
How can I update the market app to Google Play in my custom rom?
Thanks in advanced

I think that you should keep the market and after flashing if it doesnt update itself then just clear the market cache and it shall update itself.

the new one DID work but then stopped working where you can not download an APPS or update any apps. I was just able to update 2 apps but then it stopped working again and wont even download. When I was able to revert back to the OLD market, everything worked. There is a BIG forum discussion on the android market forum about this issue and someone else also said going back to the old market solved their issue. SO, I would like to get a flashable version of the old market.... Thanks...
Here is the old market that has the updater script stuff for Clockwork recovery.

Well, I flashed this and now the market doesnt know what is installed on my phone. for instance ENHANCED EMAIL just says PURCHASED but its already installed. It was able to download but it wont install. I did run MARKET DOCTOR but it couldnt fix the market.. any ideas?\
Update: I was able to get the apps to show up my CLEARING CACHE and DATA from MARKET... BUT 99% of the time UPDATES will NOT install .. they will download but not install. once in a while they will. HOWEVER if I uninstall the APP and hen install the update as if it were a new APP install it works.. any ideas??
Hello.
Two weeks ago I was using CyanogenMOD 6.1 on my G1. I saw the .apk of the new Market Update and tryed to install it. I make a mess and loss my Android Market.
Tonight I upgraded to this ROM. After installing the ROM I didn't login with my Google account to test the ROM and the Market was there.
But after adding my Google Account and the phone finish the sync my Market was gone
What do you think that happened? And how can I solve this?
Thanks in advance.
This is not the section for a general question like that, please keep that in mind before you post.
If you want to get the market back, either install the new market APK or flash google apps again.
Reflashing the gapps solved it. Thanks

Thanks for your reply! May I know which version of O3D you using? I tried 2.3 V21A original FW and many different CFW (acurarom, King, Baxter...) but no help.

I'm using baxter rom from Echts but what I think the real solution is that I have edited the build.prop file with the correct values that LG forgot to include on the v21A update.
You can try to use my patch on this thread and see if that works for you.
Don't mind that the thread is saying that it's for skype. Just try it an let me know.

I modified but no help. I got a hint from that post and flash back to Android 2.2 original FW, it work! The apps from market can be download. Only flash to 2.3 is not compatible.
May I ask a stupid question, your baxter FW is a 2.3(GB)?

Yes it is gingerbread. I had a similar problem and what I did was to reinstall a 2.3 ROM. Then all the apps were working again. I recommend you reinstall a GB ROM after a full wipe and see if that works.

It works! I reinstalled 2.3 ROM. May be the acurarom has some bug. Because after I reinstalled 2.3 ROM and baxter, it still no problem. Once I install acurarom after baxter, many apps cannot find in market and incompatible such as "Smile shooter analog clock", "Maid live wallpaper", etc. Sadly, I just a newbie and have not enough permission to ask in development group
Anyway, thanks for your help~
Its an DPI related issue with new market.
Well I am facing same issue on new Market, it doesn't support dpi other than 240. I have no idea why google put dpi check on the new version of the market.
Anyway if any one want to know how to solve it. First you need to revert your dpi to 240 and restart the phone, and then go to manage Application under phone settings, click on market, and clear data after force closing it. Restart the market and Voila!
Cheers!
Edit: On other note download maket enabler from market if you need to install an app that is not available in your country of the market.

I've solved the dpi problem by deleting "com.android.vending.updater.apk" from the system/app folder and installing one of these themed market apps

I extracted the problem ROM zip file and get the build.prop, it contain this line:"ro.sf.lcd_density=240". I think the dpi should be 240 but still having problem. In another "works" ROM (Baxter), it does not contain this line but it works.

Tried but not work.
I made a zip file with "com.android.vending-1.apk" which is Market 2.3.4. And delete "com.android.vending-2.apk" and market updater using RootExplorer. Then install the zip from recovery. But finally no help. Some apps still hidden.

I rooted my phone last night using poot and super user. I downloaded a modded google play from pirate bay thinking it was gonna give me free apps. i deleted the google play that was orginally on my phone now i can't get it back. i tried factory reset. i tried downloading a google play apk but everytime i open it after download is crashes. i want to unroot my phone but dont have a usb cord and dont have google play. what do i do?!?!?!
its ok
a lot of times roms do not have a google play apk but now here is what you can do .YOU can search the web ,and install google play 4.0.25 its the new one and it is downloadable as an apk file.JUST tipe downloadandroidrom in your browser and go to apk and then go to market, click on com.android.vending .If you have any problems installing it ,try use a file explorer.

First off, we dont support piracy on xda.
To solve your problem, download a play store in apk format from sites like androidpolice etc. and push it to /system/app with permissions of rw-r-r. You are done.

Ok. Install the app directly. Download another app called link2sd. Grant superuser access. Then open app window. Click on google play. Click on actions button. see options and click "make system app". It will make it system app automatically. Then reboot your phone. If it still FC, use fix permissions option from cwm recovery.

make sure that you also have GoogleServicesFramework.apk and GoogleLoginService.APK. AFAIK you need these two as well to get the play store app to work.
superuser says my binary is outdated. when i go to update it, it crashes saying it has stopped unexpectly. on link2sd all the options under actions is launch manage reinstall unistall. i tried manage and it just took me to application settings. i hope i didnt screw up my phone rooting it last night because i cant do anything on it. google play has got to where i can go in install an app but soon as i hit accept and download it crashes. i did a factory reset last night so poot and superuser are gone. i tried to redownload superuser just now and thats when it said my binary was outdated and when i try to update it, it crashes. is this fixable or is my phone screwed up lol. i really appreciate you helping me!!!

You can disable notifications from superuser app. Also you won't loose root if you factory reset your phone. Superuser app is set as system app when you root it. Also follow what justmpm said above.

You must install the Goggle play compatible with your Android version and your phone.
Please provide the phone model, Android version and if you have a custom recovery or not,
If you are still unable to install playstore apk, i will recommend downloading gapps for your phone model. Flash them from custom recovery using install zip. This should install your playstore. No clue if it can override the pre exisiting apps. Still learning on xda.

I don't think he has a curtom recovery set up. Flashing Gapps would overwrite existing ones, but most gapps packages are configured to abort the installation if some gapps already exist.
Try this app as an alternative
Have u tried downloading 1 mobile apk its like Google play store try it

He is already on root, and perhaps if there's nowhere the solution, ome simply can't live without playstore. I will advise full system wipe with data and installing a newer custom recovery and then new rom with new gapps.

Solution?
Any proper solution for this? Running on CM12.1.
Brother sorry we couldn't help you in this case because we don't know how to fix it . One thing you can do is that Google it and you will found some better response for sure
Dude, that is the easiest thing to fix, but if the OP doesn't tell us the phone model and version i wont even bother trying to fix it. OP is inactive anyways...
