I flashed the latest CM7 Alpha Final ROM from March 9th. I also flashed the gapps according to the instructions as well:
"You will also need to flash Google apps (market etc) from HERE. The internal no longer comes with the google framework installed due to ruling from google themselves." (the actual filename is gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip)
I wiped the data/cache and the davlik cache as well and now I cannot sideload any .apk files nor install anything from the Android market. I tried to install Titanium Backup and ES File Explorer from the market and got an error. I then tried to sideload some apk (I forget which) and got a message similar to 'you cannot load an app not from the android market'.
Was my problem flashing the gapps zip file? I can't seem to install anything which prevents me from restoring via Titanium Backup.
edit: I figured out the 'cannot load apps not from the android market was the 'unknown sources' button. That's ok now.)

This was not required if you updated from CM7a1 (Wipe cache only per on nook prompt once CM7 installed.). My installation went smooth, I even successfully updated Google Maps App after the update.
I think I solved the problem by using the current Android Market version 3.4.4. All seems well now, the version I somehow used was 3.1.3...looked very different and obviously didn't work.
Great to hear!

Sorry - not enough posts to post in development thread.
Anyway, I rooted and installed Das Bamf 1.2.1 tonight and everything's fine on it. Only problem is that I can't install anything Google related from the market - everything downloads fine, but the installation comes up as unsuccessful. I have tried clearing out cache/data for Market, as well as uninstalling updates, but that doesn't help.
Any ideas?

before installing this rom, did you do a full wipe? wipe data/cache/delvik cache?
If the google apps were modded or changed or signed when they baked the rom you will have this problem because all google apps are signed by googles own signing key. So wait for the rom dev to update their rom or use a different rom or delete the google apk in system/app folder and download
Was hoping someone can give me some insight here because I am at a loss. I have tried countless times to get Gapps to work with Cyanogenmod 7 but the market nor any of the Google apps show up. The ROM installs fine but after flashing the Gapps package it doesnt show(yes I'm positive I'm using the right Gapps file) I have wiped everyting cache/data/dalvik, tried using the format.zip and nvflash to start with a fresh tab, that didn't work. I've tried installing Cyanogen 6 first, but for some reason that just results in a boot loop. If anyone has this problem or knows what the probelm could be it would be greatly helpful.
Thanks in advance for any help
After booting are you connecting to your WiFi access point?
Market doesn't show until you are connected to WiFi, then it will install the apps directly from the Market.
Yup Ive connected to WIFI, let the ROM run for a bit, restarted countless times. I just cant figure it out. I dont get the account setup screen either, it just goes straight into the ROM itself.
And after you connected to your WiFi did you open the app drawer and click on the Market to launch it?
At this point it should ask for your Google account, ask what Gapps from the market you want installed and then do it.
Thats the problem, the market icon doesnt exist for me to open, none of the google apps show up even though it installed successfully in clockwork.
None of the google apps will show up, though Market should, if you installed the Gapps package and are connected to WiFi.
The Gapps.zip just installs the Market and some of the supporting/needed libraries and files for accessing the Market (plus some other stuff).
Connected to WiFi, launching the Market initializes the Google sign in and the "other stuff" that lets you pick the Google Apps you want installed. It then downloads them from the Market itself.
EDIT:
What version of CM7 are you running and what Gapps package are you installing?

I installed 7.0.3 stable with the 20110307 gapps package.
I'm telling you nothing comes up to install market or any other google apps. I must have installed the ROM about 30 times now. Probably gonna end up being something stupid I'm leaving out.
Have both the Rom and Gapps on your device.
Boot in to Clockworkmod Recovery and do a factory reset, then advanced and wipe davlik cache
Install .zip from sdcard, choose the ROM and install, do NOT reboot.
Install .zip from sdcard, choose the Gapps and install
ReBoot device, connect to WiFi before doing anything else.
Market should appear when you open the app drawer. Launch it to continue.
It's been a while......but I walked my sister through it via email a few weeks ago back...

Ive tried this, it either results in a bootloop or just doesn't work but I'll give it another shot when I get home. Thanks
Try flashing a different rom along with gapps see if that works. If it does then reflash your CM7 rom along with gapps & retest, hopefully it works, if it doesn't maybe trying one of the nightly builds might work.
Did you pull the gapps file from the Cynogenmod website?
Gapps link: http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip
Getting same thing my self, so don't feel alone.
I am in the same boat. Have gone so far as to do a full NVFlash restore. Gapps will not show. Appears to install without error via recovery but it just isn't there. ARRRRRRRGH!!!!
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
The fix....eject any microSD cards you have in your device. Plug in usb. Copy update.zip to root. Enter CWM and flash update.zip. Since Cyanogen Mod messes up file structure for some reason external SD card becomes internal and tweaks the device out. If that does not work, nvflash and reinstall CM without an sd card in the device. Hope this helps.
Thanks fosser2...
What I did,
Pulled SD card
Loaded CWM update.zip and recovery folder/file
NVflashed as I was back running V5.1 again.
Vol + power to flash CWM
use CWM to flash CMod 7.0.3
then flashed Gapps
When Cmod loads, I now see the google account and ability to install all the gapps.
Thanks again, Now I can give this rom a spin. I really like Robeets HC, but it was not stable enough for everyday yet. V5.1 has bee running great, but the Netflix on GB brought me to GB.
Having same issue
I keep trying to install google apps but the market, gmail, etc, are not appearing on my screen. Not sure what I am doing wrong but I am having the exact same problem.
Help!
I don't know what happened, but I can't download anything from google play. When I click install on any app, it just get stuck at "Downloading...." and it never downloads the app.
running CM9, and just updated to latest 20120429 release and its still not working. I already tried wipe date/factory reset.
any ideas?

i had this problem with my first android phone
the solution was to re-run the phone setup (like you get when you turn on the phone for the first time), maybe the touchpad has something similar?
Have you tried deleting the app data (Settings => Apps => Google Play => clear settings), and then re-flashing the GApps package ?
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using xda premium
Tried all of that, still not working.
Another thing, I could never get CWM to install, always had to flash through novacom command.
One fix on a phone was to open a terminal app and type the following:
Su <enter>
Killall drmserver <enter>
Don't type the enters just hit enter let us know if it works

Hi
First of all did you reflasg your GAPPS also after flashing with latest build of CM9? If no then you need to flash latest GAPPS from this site.
goo-inside.me/gapps
Also after that varify that you system date and time are correct in your settings. This could be another reason that google play doesnot load at all.
Hope this helps.
I abandoned Android for a while and used WebOS on my Touchpad. But today I decided to reinstall Android again with the latest CM9 nightly. I'm still getting the same problem. Here are the things I already tried:
- Installed latest CM9 nightly, CWM, and the latest gapps from goo-inside.me/gapps, this time I actually got CWM to work.
- Wiped data/cache, ran the google setup again.
Google Play still won't install anything, it just hangs on "Downloading". I can install apps manually by downloading the APK files from the browser. What else can I try to fix this?
Maybe you can try to wipe out all the data

may be you can wipe out all the data , and try again to install gaaps, i do it twice, everytime i wipe all the data, i have to reinstall all my apps, so you can just go into the advance option of the start menu
I had the downloading from marketplace error before when I used titanium backup to uninstall/freeze things i thought phone didn't need, some of them it needed, but if you did clean install/reset and still doesn't work, i doubt it is this

cm-10.1-20130129-NIGHTLY-p4wifi.zip
gapps-jb-20130121-P75xx.zip
Hello,
I have the same problem as described by Fire_cat and I did the same steps to overcome it. I did research the forum to try to get a better understanding of this issue, to no avail. I also experience the same problem with CM9 and CM10 with appropriate gapps for these versions.
I disabled goo applications and was able to install one app successfully Rom Toolbox Pro after which the problem started all over again.
This strange behavior appeared 6 days after me first rooting and flashing CM10.1. Strange because it happened overnight when the day before everything was smooth.
Whenever I load Play Store, install or update an app, it will download it and when it hit 100%, the tablet (P4wifi) crash and I can see the CM Logo for a minute. As said, I cleared all cache and data multiple times, fixed permission before and after.
Thanks for your help
N
Just a quick update.
Las night, I started over but this time using the gapps-jb-20121207-wingray-signed.zip someone suggested might help.
It was unstable untill I disabled all google apps, launched Play Store, downloaded Opera and then rebooted to the CM logo.
I also tracked this post describing the problem on the Nightly discussions :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37335696&postcount=765
EDIT:
I started all over again, this time using the last gapps-jb-20130129-P75xx.zip, Still as soon as I log into my Google Account when first booting the tablet, it systematicaly crash. Gmail is acting normaly. Any attemp to download an app will reboot the tablet. Some random crash.
For the sake of it, I tried with a different google account. Same problem.
And how to solve the damn reboot problem
I was finally able to restore to a functional CM10.1 with latest Gapps and install apps from Play Store without crash!
I was unable to connect the tablet to my mac or pc using Debug options.
On my mac through DDMS, I was able to access the file system but not to completely browse it.
So I decided to navigate the file system on CWM to see what it looked like. I noticed that the file architecture was very wrong; In /sdcard was and other /0 with inside an other /0, so the file system was repeating itself as many time as I tried to install CM10, CM9 and CM10.1 without never formating /system.
Here's what I did to get a stable tablet:
1) Use odin to flash the latest CWM (Choose yours on droid basement(cant post link))
2) Reboot in recovery
3) Wipe Cache, Dalvik Cache and Data
4) Format /System
5) Reboot, put tablet in debug mode, drop latest Nightly and latest Gapps
6) Reboot in recovery and install both from sdcard (no more recurent directory showing)
7) Reboot and get a stable tablet.
Voilà
I'll try to help if you encounter a similar problem. I come from the iOS world so I'm not that much experienced with droid.
Hello,
atfer i updated from ArchiDroid 2.2.3 to 2.2.4 i saw that GMaps wasnt shown in the Launcher anymore, so i checked and it isnt even installed on my device.
When i try to install it from the Play Store i get the Error Code: Incompatible with other applications(s) using the same shared user ID
So i tried to flash the latest GApps package for CM but still GMaps isnt showing up.
Does anybody know how i can fix this problem?
Regards,
Fixi
Same Problem
Have got exactly the same problem using ArchiDroid V1.7.3, issue was mentioned in the Develpoment section but the only solution offered was to wait a few hours until Google Play recognises the phone.
The rom been installed for several days now & I'm still unable to install G Maps from the store due to the ID issue, short of reinstalling the rom has anybody got any thoughts?
Thanks...
Hey.
You can download inverted GMAPS directly from my github -> https://github.com/JustArchi/ArchiD...system/app/com.google.android.apps.maps-1.apk then put into /system/app. Otherwise make sure that there's no uninstalled junk left in /system/app and /data/app directories. You can also clear google store's data. Eventually if everything fails you can full wipe and make sure to UNTICK google maps in aroma (if you don't want inverted version), it's unticked in the default configuration.
Let me know if you have further problems.
Have fun with ArchiDroid.
All Done
Many thanks for the info Archi, worked perfectly. Love the Rom, super smooth... :victory:
