I rooted my phone and installed cyanogenmod 7. After i installed it alot of my apps were removed like play store, google map and etc...
So i restored my phone to see if i could get my apps back and it did, but now when i check for a software update it says current version is the latest which is not.
G2x
Software version: LG-P999-V10f
Version: 2.2.2
Rooted
Those apps that were removed can be installed by flashing Google apps, which cyanogenmod does not bundle to evade issues with Google.
Search for gapps cm7 and there ya go!

Hello, I'm quite new to this, but i sucessfully rooted and installed cyanogenmod built 26 + google apps. It worked perfectly but after a short while, when I tried to open the Android Market, It says it is loading than crashes or whatever and goes back to homescreen. It sent out no error messages.
I tried reinstalling google apps, both gb and hdpi, upgrade cyanogenmod to built 27, and restoring market app to working version using Titanium Backup. They all couldn't fix the problem.
I than restore the kernel itself to stock using clockwork recovery, than the market did work.
Is there any way to fix this market issue on cyanogenmod? Or is it different issue related to Android Market?
Thanks for helping out this newbie!
I was having similar issues with CM7 so I just gave up on it until it they have a release candidate and not just nightlies.
Okay thank you for the info
I think I'll stay with the stock kernel or some other stable rom.
btw, how does the nightly build cyanogen mods work? Like why is it every night, whats the difference of every built, when will the stable version comes out?
Thanks
I have CM 6.1.1 and I have the same problem with market app.
I tried restoring the market app I was using before i flashed to CM6.1.1 but market app crashes, it opens up and the home screen is displayed again.
I tried downloading the market app apk and installing it but I faced the same problem again. Anyone have any idea how to go about this?

you just bumped a months old thread.
you're using CM 6.1.1, this is discontinued -- you're probably trying to use new markets on 2.2
its also pretty obvious that you don't have a Nexus S either :\
Downloaded and install CM7 nightly correctly, then realised i had forgotten to install Google Apps.
So i downloaded it for my CM7 nightly wiki
gapps-gb-20110613-signed (5MBish)
Booted to CWM7 and installed it successfully, after back to OS it doesnt prompt me to install the apps or even in the app drawer
Can anyone help?
Those apps are outdated. 8-28 or later.

I've got the Google Videos app installed that shipped w/ the TeamEOS v1 ROM & can watch movies rented from the Market, but if I update to Google Play Movies, when it starts up I get the "Bad rooted device! Dats a bad kitteh!" error. Was the version that shipped with the ROM enabled to play rentals, even though we're rooted? or is it just dumb luck? I reverted back to the old version via TiBu & alls well. Also wondering this, if there was a change to the ver that this ROM shipped with, is the latest version of the app going to be updated as well.
TIA,

Is there a working TB ROM that would allow us to download and play this App "Ultimate Special Fx"
It says it requires Android v2.3.7 Gingerbread or higher to run.
I'm running ThunderShed CM7 , when I last checked said it was 2.3.7.
Any thoughts ??
android versions
i've never heard of or used ultimate special fx, but you are correct, thundershed is android version 2.3.7. as i'm unfamiliar with the app in question, and am not sure if there are other hardware/software prerequisites to running the app besides the android version, i can only break down android versions types of roms use as a base. the open mobile leak/mr4 roms are android version 2.3.6. the roms based off of 2.11.605.9 are android 2.3.4 i believe. but yes, in theory, thundershed should be able to run the app.

Thanks for your reply here is the link to the APP. I was also looking for prerequisites but all that is says 2.3.7 and above. I'm wondering if Play Store is set to block all TB roms till the official ICS for TB is released by VZW.
Check out Ultimate Special Fx on Google Play! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.techcatmobile.ultimatespecialfx
Yes, play store restricts apps you can view based on your device id and android version for compatibility reasons, and to protect consumers from purchasing apps they can't run. Also, devices can be blocked from viewing apps in play store because the developer has chosen to restrict them or doesn't support them. Custom roms also sometimes change the device id in the build prop to one that play store doesn't understand or recognize. It's still possible to get around this though. You can either download the app from your computer and move it to your phone, or modify your build prop file with a root browser to reflect a different and compatible device and obtain the app normally. With either course of action, the app chainfire3D can be used to scale the graphical/processing demands of ultimate special fx to fit the thunderbolt's gpu. Keep in mind, I personally haven't tried to do this, it's just a suggestion to try if you're bound and determined to get the app. Hope that helps.

Here is the APK file. I dowloaded it via my PC and threw (USB) it over to my TB and it works good.
Please Note** You still need to be v2.3.7
Hi,
I just installed the 4.2.1 rom from aokp but I can not find out how to download any apps. There is no marketplace or google play app. Do I have to find the .apk and download it manually? If so do I need a special version for 4.2.1?
Thanks
Download and flash Google Apps. Goggle "gapps" and download the version for your ROM.
As previously mentioned you need to download the latest version of Google apps for ROMs based on Android 4.2.1 (Such as the latest version of AOKP) and flash the zip package in recovery. Google apps compatible with Android 4.2.1 can be found here http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip.

Thanks a bunch. I must have downloaded the wrong one before. Thanks for the links, that did the trick.
Wow, you all are really quick with the answers. Kudos.
Course, now bluetooth seems broken. It seems to be a a2dp issue. I'll post again with a different title but basically when I tried to listen to music/podcasts it is fine for like 3 seconds then turns really staticy and garbled. I heard the latest nightly from 13-01-28 addressed this so I flashed that which is definitely better but the voices seem off like they are speaking at 80% speed. Weird.
Thanks again you all rock!
A suggestion for you is to get Goo manager. Some of the devs have the gapps right there when you select the rom version for download, Lets you download them together. It'll help you get the right gapps for the rom your looking to use.
