playstore
what version of android are you running.
depending on the version of android you are running and assuming that you have installed CWM recovery, this link http://goo.im/gapps should solve your problem.
just choose your android version, download, then add the zip file to your sdcard, restart to recovery and install the zip file.

Help with pushing to system/app

Hey guys I've been rooting and flashing for a while now but never have really needed to push or install an app to this directory. I'm trying to install the new ics messaging app from the market but can't seem to get it. I'm using root explorer to move it to system/app and I tried disabling the stock messaging app but I always get force closes when I try and click on thread in the new ics messaging app....any help would be greatly appreciated.

What ics messaging app?
---------- Post added at 03:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 AM ----------
Anyway to push. U can shutdown phone boot to cwm. Mount system. Open cmd prompt on your pc . And type adb push [ yourfile path and name] /system/app
Then adb reboot
And it sounds like an incompatible app your trying to use.
You drive a subie too? Nice
Anyways....This one...

I know you got it now but i thought id share that titanium can make an app become a system app by long pressing it and selecting "make system app" that's how i did it with apex launcher

Please help getting server error in Google Play

Please help getting server error in Google Play . I just installed the rom Codename and I love it ..except when I go to the Google Play store I keep getting server error and cannot download anything. I've been online and looked for solutions and tried reinstalling rom, cleared cache in Google play, updated it ...any suggestions are appreciated as I cannot download anything in the store.
Thanks!!

Possible Fix
I have had issues with this in the past when moving to different roms as well.
I would suggest
Goto > Manage Apps
Find Google Play store > clear data / cache
Find Google Framework Services > clear data
Reboot
Goto >System Settings>Accounts
Make sure your phone is setup to your google account.
Open Google Play > Select your gmail account
You will have to reset up some of your settings for Google related products (gmail, maps, chrome, etc...)
I may have been overzealous in all my steps, but it works for me...
This is also fixed my issue with the Play Store on the web not being able to install to my phone or vice versa.
It basically re-registers your phone with the Play Store....
Good luck!

Thank you so much for your steps. I went to apps and cleared cache on the Google play but the Google services framework wasn't in there so I went and installed root explorer from the internet and went to system then apps then Google services framework and it wasn't installed and when I attempted to install it it said parsing error . Then I tried to download it from internet and no luck so..oops I deleted it....I now just went into twrp and flashed gapps. I do not know if that will fix it but any more assistance is appreciated and I will let you know what happens after I reboot.
Thank you

You need to be on the ALL APPS tab not the downloaded apps tab.
I am pretty sure it needs those frameworks to operate...

Well I tried again and it appears that Google services framework is not at all in apps - all apps ....and under root explorer in system - apps when I click on it I am getting parsing problem....so I hope that info helps.

Try going to your terminal app and typing
su
killall drmserver
and rebooting.
If that does not do it, I think you should do a factory wipe, format cache/system and reflash your Rom and GAPPS....

Clear data from Google Services Frameworks.
Already did all the clearing that is recommended here.
The problem I have is that my music doesn't play. I'll click on a song and hit play and Google plays the song but the seek bar is stuck at 0.00 and the music never plays.

How to update apps? Please help

I download plenty of beta version apps and homebrew apps (not from market). Is there a way to update these without losing app data by uninstalling and reinstalling the new version. I don't want to lose the app data.

Just install the new versions over the old ones. (App will be updated without data loss)
It doesn't let me do that. It tells me the previous version must be uninstalled before installing the new one.

In that case, use an app such as Titanium Backup to backup your data, then uninstall the old app and install the new one. After that, restore the data.
Do I need to root my phone to use that app?

Yes, the device would need root access.

it doesnt let me update , it forces me to uninstall making me lose data.
As stated the only way to do it is do back up the data with titanium back up. Uninstall the app, install new one and then restore the settings.
Also be careful about getting apks from places other then the official app stores or here

Is rooting safe?

As safe as installing apps you get outside of the play store. Safer even. Just do your research

Transparent Google Play Store 4.3.11

Here is my transparent Google Play Store 4.3.11. You must be rooted and have an unlocked bootloader to flash the zip. I would suggest going into your system/app folder and saving your Phonesky file some place else before flashing mine, just in case. Once that is done then make sure you are in WP bypass mode and flash away, enjoy!
Hit the thanks button if you like or use!

You have to use superuserSU. I backed up my ROM just in case I messed something up with root permissions because I was going to use updatesuperuser app instead. I didn't though I found that I was OK with the updated superuserSU. Update superuser allows to write SU permissions and choose which app you want to use for SU but the app itself grants root permission.Should you allow it. So before closing app if you're not happy with that one you do what I said above and change permission to w.e. app you want or you lose root its easier then I made it sound trust me

Go to google play store download superSU. It should tell you that your phone is in need of an update choose to do it the normal way instead of through cwm or twrp. It'll do its thing and should restart. You should now have an updated su, its also going to ask you if you have any other su app and then it'll alert or prompt you to delete any other apps(which it does for you)and remove permissions to avoid any problems of confusion amongst the system
