I have a 10.1 tab and I never had problem going to Android Market or recently updated to Google Play Store. However, since last night I was trying to download a ADWtheme and it was getting some kind of -101 error downloading. I realized that all of the apps are giving me the same error. So i tried going to settings-->manage applications-->and clear the cache for the google play Store and also tried to unistall the updates back to original Android Market but still giving me "server error, Retry". Now absolutely no entry to the market. What is going on?? I tried signing out from the google account and re-signin but the same error message.
I wish I can uninstall the market and reinstalling it, but if i unistall the market how can i get it back?? do i have to download the apk from the computer first?? This is really getting frustrated. I hope someone can give me a solution. Greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

Can you get to the google play store from a browser? If not maybe it is actually a server problem or issue between your ip and the server. It's happened to me at least once but resolved itself.

Yes, I can access through the browser. But this problem is since last nite (more than 24 hour so far and going). Just don't think it should behave like that. However, my galaxy S2 phone can access randomly but not my tab. Well, if anyone has a solution. Please let me know.

Root Explorer has always been there on the market, maybe they took it down for some reasons, eitherway you can always find it via Google
You can also us the ES File Explorer. There you have to enable "root explorer" and "mount system" in the setings.
Another possibility is to use the Filemanager HD,whereyou also have to enable the same settings.
Both work on my tab and I can edit system files.

You need to install (flash) gapps.zip from recovery mode.
copy zip file to your sd card.
from recovery mode, choose install zip from sd card
select zip file and install it. then reboot system.
when reboot, you can see play store app and can use it.

Well, I guess the way out is by flashing gapps on your ROM. I too had looked for ways to install Google Play as a standalone app, but I didn't come across any information to do that. You could find Gapps on google by searching them with the android version your current ROM is running on.
I tried all but nothing works hehe
and i did not have any time these days... so we are cool :good:

Why can't you reinstall it? You should be able to grab it from the same rom you are on for your phone and use a root explorer to put the app in the /system/app or /system/priv-app (depending on the rom) and set the correct permissions to restore functionality after rebooting.
when i try to install it from apk it stops and says "apk not installed". can you explain me how to install it with other ways? i'm newbie here

You can't install an app that needs to be in the /system folder by just installing it like normal. You have to move it into the correct folder and set permissions. Use this as a general guide http://www.engadget.com/discuss/install-google-play-on-any-android-device-1p17/ and substitute the appropriate Play Store and Google Play Services app for your phone. If you are on 4.4.2 or above, you will need to move the apps into /system/priv-app instead of /system/app.
thank you it really helped

It's pretty straightforward, there are several apps that do this. You can search in Baidu.com for Gapps and the apk will show up. Install it, press the big button and there you go. You can also find several tutorials in Youtube, if you don't know how the app looks like.
Alternatively, here's another tutorial with a different app: http://en.miui.com/thread-17910-1-1.html
somehow i'm able to install Gapps using the installer, i don't know what i did to fix it, anyway its all good now, btw the link you gave is for device that is not bootloader locked
The minimum set of Gapps are very easy to install with the help of this tiny online installer. It's in Chinese, but it's intuitive.

This is the tools that i was using when trying to install Gapps, and after countless of failed effort, somehow it works on its own, i don't know what happened
For me NewGoogleInstaller works flawlessly on all firmwares, including the latest 7.2.4.

Same here first time, but removed Google*, installed them again and it started working. I rebooted after Google login, Xunlei engine was disabled and download limit set to Unlimited.
it seem that after you login to playstore, you need to wait for a while for it to sync in order for you to be able to download apps, otherwise you'll get unable to contact server error message

the google installer worked to install the apps but they couldn't establish a connection to the servers. I had to restore my playstore and google apps from a titanium backup file I had and then it would work. So anyone not able to get on google apps try installing old titanium backups, it may work.
One thing to note with all of these is sometimes it just needs time.
After all, the play services and framework often have to register with Google and also update themselves (you're not guaranteed to get the most up to date version for each even with the installer).
I installed mine and they registered fine. But as soon as I tried to download an app from the play store I got weird errors.
Left it a day and boom, worked fine.
