[Q] gapps problem

Hey,
I recently installed cyanogenmod 7 from this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941346
Everything seems to be fine except for there is no market and I cannot link my google account to my phone under cyanogenmod 7. I tried through the settings/accounts area and also through the e-mail application but no luck. I tried reinstalling after wiping the cache, deleting the data but even that didn't work. I also tried to update using "gapps-gb-20110503-signed" and it says that it is successful but it still isn't fixed after that. I then tried to restore my old firmware then flash "gapps-gb-20110503-signed" and then reinstalled cyanogenmod 7 but I don't see any difference.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Bob

You install gaps the same way you flash the ROM. Put it on your SD Card, reboot into recovery and install the zip. When you reboot, you should be good to go.

I'm not 100% sure but I think you need to flash gapps straight after you flash CM7, while still in recovery.

Thanks for your prompt replies, I think I should also add that I installed it the same way I installed the mod.

hmm, thats weird that it didnt work then. What phone and recovery do you have? After you flash the ROM, you can try to fix permissions before you flash gapps. If you have clockwork recovery, that is located under advanced. If that doesn't work, I would do a full wipe, reflash the ROM and then flash gapps again. Also, you may have a bad download of gapps..that happens quite a bit. Just trying to throw the different scenarios out there.

Ok I will put everything I did. When I received the phone it was on android 2.0 imported from Italy. I then upgraded to 2.1 at which point this is all the information that I wrote down:
FCCID: IHDP56KC2 = GSM (Quad-Band GSM (850/900/1800/1900) & Dual-Band Euro 3G (900/2100))
A853
firmware: 2.1-update1
firmware configuration version: GAS_EMEA_USASHL00WNDIT_P031
baseband configuration version USASHLSMR2WNDITB1B806D.0R
kernel versioin 2.6.29-omap1 [email protected] #1
build number SHOLS_U2_02.38.0
bootloader 90.73
I then rooted the phone using universal androot. I then Installed RSD lite and used the SBF named "GOT_WINDITALY_2_2_1FULL.sbf" Then I installed open recovery and installed cyanogenmod/gapps. I tried redownloading the latest gapps from the cyanogen latest release wiki page (cannot link because my forum account is too new) but am stuck a bit. Could it be because I used a 2.2.1 sbf instead of the 2.0 that it came with?
So what would you recommend I do next? Should I download clockwork recovery now?

I managed to get it working! Here is how I did it. I re-downloaded cyanogen mod, I then re-downloaded gapps "gapps-gb-20110307-signed" and "gapps-gb-20110503-signed" tried both after clean wipe of dalvik cache data and cache partition and the "gapps-gb-20110307-signed" worked. I'm still not sure what the problem is but after trying again and again I can only assume the downloads must have been corrupt. Thanks for all of your help.

If you are using a custom ROM right now than you can go into recovery wipe everything and then flash a stock ROM. There is a code to wipe date/factory reset your phone as well. Go on youtube and there should be a tutorial but it's shown on a galaxy S. It will work on our phones also. I have tried it many times.

thanks for the reply... will definately try that
btw, i probably should start a new thread for this

1. BACKUP ALL DATA OFF DEVICE
2. Boot into CWM recovery
3. Wipe : system, DATA, cache, dalvik-cache
4. Boot directly into Download Mode
5. Flash stock firmware with Odin
In future, suggest to forget OTA. Use Odin !

[q] help with note 4 root stuck with faulty firmware and offset touch

My Note 4 was running 4.4.4 kitkat and I just decided it was time to update the firmware to Lollipop 5.0.1. I made backups of all my stuff and downloaded the lollipop firmware from Sammobile.com. I put my phone into recovery and used odin 3.0.9 to install it. After it booted up it was working fine for a few minutes. Then i installed the CWM but i accidentally installed the wrong one. I have the note 4 SM-N910P but i installed the CWM for the SM-N15P. And i flashed it using BL instead of AP in odin. After it booted up I started having issues. The touch screen wont respond correctly. When i touch the screen it actually clicks around 1.5 cm diagnolly down to the right and sometimes it doesn't respond at all. After that I tried several options
Re installing the firmware full wipe - didn't work
Reinstalling the wrong CWM the right way on AP and then factory resetting - didn't work
Wiping it from CWM recovery mode- didn't work
Wiping it from settings menu - - didn't work
Wiping it from reg Recovery mode- didn't work
Installing an older version of firmware. (4.4.4 KITKAT)- when i did that it didn't even install, it was still running lollipop. - didn't work
Installing the correct CWM and wiping it from CWM and Stock Recovery - didn't work
So ive tried all this several times in different orders to no luck. I still cant uninstall lollipop or factory/hard reset it. Is there some other program or method i can use to fix my note 4 touch issues and reinstall the firmware for real.
Thanks in advance
