My problem is I need the Google Play Store App, and I can't find it on my phone. I've flashed 3 different gapps. The last gapps I flashed was what I think is the latest for CM 10: -jb-20130812-signed. When I go to https/play.google.com/store/ it won't let me download anything, says "You haven't accessed the Google Play Store app (the white shopping bag icon) on your device with this email account."
I'm a noob, so I need some coaching on this, but I don't know that I see any google apps on the phone. I have a Samsung Fascinate SCH-I500 running CyanogenMod 10.1-20130723-Nightly, Jellybean 4.2.2. It was my wife's old phone, and bricked. I rooted and flashed it following instructions on this forum. The phone is working well on Page Plus.
I have been able to sync it with gmail, but I want to add google calendar, and I can't download the calendar app because the play store says I need the google play store app.
I'm wondering:
1. Is it possible that the gapps aren't getting installed? I don't see any apps that I can identify as "google apps." What are these apps, and how can I verify they're installed?
2. Is it possible that 2103-08-12 gapps lacks the google play store app? Maybe the google play store app didn't exist at that time.
Help will be greatly appreciated.
Can anyone please point me to a good copy of the EH03 stock ROM?
Further research seems to indicate that there was a problem with my installation. I see the errors documented in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49284762&highlight=no+gapps+installed#post49284762
That is, the ROM flashed ok, but when I try to install gapps I see
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
So the gapps didn't actually install.
The OP's solution, for which he was assisted by hhp_211, was to procure new copies of the EHO3 Stock ROM, the Bootloader, and CWM4. I've been able to find the Bootloaders and CWM4 with md5sums that check out, but I can't find the EHO3 Stock ROM with a verifiable md5sum. One I can find doesn't extract from zip to a tar.md5 file. It is a tar. md5 folder, which doesn't seem right.
@CatNado
Just downloaded file again.
md5 checks out and unzipped properly to .tar.md5
trying to go back to stock & re-flashing the rom, getting errors

@CatNado
After doing a little more searching I found this thread which has a few things you could try...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=984381&page=2
Simplest was to try with battery out
Another is to drain off any residual charge
"" remove the cable and battery for approximately 30 seconds and hold the power buttons to remove any leftover charge from capacitors. Reinsert the battery and put the phone back in download mode and plug it up and try again ""
Course you could try the variant of that without the battery...
The other is to try removing the .md5 from the file name and saving that to use in the pda slot
Hopefully those will get you going again.
No need to keep putting up multiple posts either,,, the fascinate forum is a ghost town and just simply doesn't get checked frequently, just be patient waiting for replies

Hey,
You might want to try a different PIT and MD5 file. You can find them here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=6356 (Thanks to hhp_211 for the link.) Good luck and tell me if this works.
Unable to make my own thread so jumping in here.
I am having an issue where I tried to do this videos description:
youtube watch?v=0JrqZwHXEmY
Which lists out 1.) Download Samsung drivers here (scroll down hit downloads tab and it will bring up drivers)
2.) Download Odin here:
3.) Download ClockWorkMod (cwm4 fixed for cm7)
Put these files on your SD card
4.) Download ICS (rom) Team hacksung
5.) Scroll down to CyanogenMod 9.x.x and download gapps file 20120429
Steps
1. Install drivers on PC. 2.) In phone go to settings, Applications, Development, check USB Debugging, 3.)Open Odin on pc. 4.) Take battery out, put phone into download mode by plugging in factory USB cable while holding down on volume button. 5.) Click PDA on Odin and open file "cwm4 fixed for cm7" and hit start on Odin. 6.) Let pass, unplug USB cable and boot into recovery by holding the power button and volume up and down at same time. Wait for Samsung logo to flash twice and let go. 7.) Wipe Data,cache partition,and Delvik cache under advanced. 8.) Install zip from SD card,choose zip from SD card and select Teamhacksung zip file. It will reboot.
To get Google play App reboot into recovery (DO NOT USE 3 finger method!), choose zip from SD card install the gapps file 20120429, and reboot. DO NOT WIPE ANY DATA OR CASH THIS TIME! If you have any questions leave me a comment and I will help you out. Thanks!!
After doing this. I only got as far as :

Nothing after this, it's just staying there. So I closed Odin, and tried to turn my phone on. I got the Phone>Yellow Triangle>Computer. Tried looking through many forums and tried a few "fixes" but none worked. Last one I tried was this one:
youtube watch?v=08bd2FQfOn8
1.Open Odin then just minimize it you will come back.
*DO NOT change or alter any of the settings in Odin very important.
1. Put your phone into download mode. You can see how i did it in the video. Plug your data cable into your phone powered off. Hold the volume down button then plug your usb into your computer. When you see the yellow triangle let go off volume.
2 Things should happen now !
~ Your phone should be in download mode. Download mode looks like a yellow triangle with the android robot in the middle screen.
~ Odin should recognize your phone and you should see a yellow box appear in the ID:COM tab
2. Click on PDA button in Odin and navigate to the folder on your computer that the DI01package.tar file was downloaded to. Select the file when you find it.
3.Hit START
It will start doing all the work flashing everything. You won't have to do anything but just sit back. Odin will say DONE in green when the process is complete.
*make sure your phone stays plugged in throughout the entire process.
The process takes between 5-20 minutes just be patient. You will see the Verizon sign again when the phone boots up. There you go your Samsung Fascinate should now be restored !
Same thing:

<ID:0/003> Leave CS..

<ID:0/003> Initialzation..
And I am stuck there.
I was able to take the phone out and I was able to get into the boot menu. I could click on Factory reset etc. and it said it was doing it and I have tried to clear cache and data and it has said that it has done it. When I go to reboot though, its back to the Phone>Yellow Triangle>Computer symbol. And will not work again
I am unsure of what to do. This phone was never Rooted or anything, I had just tried to do it that first time and it didn't work or show any progress. I am unsure of what to do from here.
Same issue, exactly as OP
Same exact issue. How did you solve it?
Cannot flash the PIT file, and get the /cache/ errors, exactly as you do.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s-i9000/help/cache-error-t3269688
Posted in i9000, not realizing these were different phones.
Update: followed some advice to pull battery and cable for over 30 seconds and try again.
Tried with this PIT http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788522
Samsung_I500_VZW_PIT.zip
and CI500_VZW_EH03_GB_CM.tar.md5
and... get the /cache/ errors . ODIN doesn't flash the cache file, on reboot the /cache error appears as the rom has difficulty updating the phone.
[SOLVED]
THIS IS ONLY FOR THE FASCINATE/SHOWCASE/SCH-I500 or SCH-S950C.
THIS WILL NOT WORK IN THE I9000. In fact, flashing i9000 kernels (like Der Teufel / The Devil kernel, CAUSED THIS PROBLEM).
Fire up ODIN (I used ODIN 3.07 on Windows 10 (12/2015 patch level))
**Uncheck Auto-Reboot!! in ODIN before flashing.**
Use the PIT from EZbase (others might work)
and flash cwm4_fixed_for_cm7-ODIN.tar
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/fk25duo59iyn33g/AADm6xkLJCOiprqe37e4TOMia?dl=0
I put them on dropbox. Although you can find them in other threads/places. I did not keep track of where I found the copies, but I found them on 12/2015, so you should be able to also.
Unplug the phone and remove the battery. It will turn off.
Remove the SDCARD and put in http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/jenkins/35557/cm-10.1-20130723-NIGHTLY-fascinatemtd.zip (the latest nightly CM10.1 Android 4.2.2x)
Boot up the phone by holding the Vol Up & the Vol Down key, and press Power until you see SAMSUNG, then release the Power button. It will boot up into a 4.0.1.0 recovery. YOU MAY STILL SEE A CACHE ERROR... IGNORE IT.
Choose the option to load a ZIP from the SDCARD.
Flash cm-10.1-20130723-NIGHTLY-fascinatemtd.zip
It will reboot into the newer recovery, then continue with the update.
You should be done now.
No more /cache/ mount errors, no more stl11 errors.
I found a quote at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1190668
"All Samsung Roms run on top of BML/RFS, CyanogenMod 7 does NOT.
It runs on MTD/yaffs2 (like Nexus One) which means you'll not able to flash just any kernel or run just any other filesystem you want. Use it as it is if possible, otherwise confirm with the kernel developer that you are trying to install whether it would work with CM. We do not support other kernels and know nothing about their capabilities or compatibility. Only the data partition, which is on movinand, is ext4 like on speedmod or voodoo ("lagfix"). No "lagfix" is necessary because this does not use any Samsung proprietary file systems."
IT RUNS ON MTD/yaffs2... etc etc, it's clear that this repartitions/reformats the device. A lot of the struggle I had for days, a week, was trying to set the PIT over with Heimdall or ODIN, and restoring to stock. Unfortunately once one of these i9000 type kernels or ROMs 'touch' your Fascinate, you can't go back to the stock, at least not from being stuck with the /cache/ mount errors. You *might* be able to go back after flashing the nightly Cyanogenmod linked above.
Hi everyone, i firstly apologize if i'm on the wrong page with this question but i'm desperate and totally new to all of this, in way over my head really.
Here is my problem i have rooted my S6 Edge then i wanted to install TWRP Recovery before installing Xposed?...
But what happened is, my device got stuck during TWRP (i used Flashify).
After failing i looked for answers online i'v dowloaded Odin .6 and .7 i went into Odin mode and tried to flash stock firmware SM-G925FXXU3QOKN but it failed near finishing on both Odins. Now i'm not even sure anymore whether anything after "SM-G925FXXU3" is right or whether it even matters because i couldn't find the firmware for my country but on sammobile the firmwares of all our neighbouring countries end on "QOKN" so i guess what are the odds?
Now my device doesnt startup at all, unless it's plugged into the pc it displays a BLUE SCREEN: "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software"
(Smart Switch doesn't give me any options, Samsung kies is disabled by Samsung)
while the device is plugged in and showing the text i can get into Odin mode.
If anyone of you guys could help me out, that would mean a lot to me.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT; My device was running 5.1.1 lollipop

Hi Jamie, you probably have the right firmware BUT right after you've flashed the firmware and it fails at "hidden.img" you need to open the firmware file you have flashed and extract the "hidden.img" file.
Okay, when you have done so rename the file to "hidden.img.tar" (you may receive a warning that the file may become damaged)
Don't worry, proceed!
When the file is renamed, open Odin and add the hidden.img.tar file to the AP/PDA tab and flash it unto your device.
Be patient.
Hello guys, I need some serious help to get back my phone. I am noob in such things so pardon me if I did some stupid stuff.
I was tiring to upgrade my phone from Android v. 4.4.4 to v. 5.0.0 following "droidviews.com/update-att-galaxy-s4-sgh-i337-to-lollipop-and-keep-root/" this tutorial "Update AT&T Galaxy S4 to Lollipop and Keep Root" every thing was going smooth but my phone automatically reboot it stuck on Samsung boot logo I waited for around 30 to 40 mins but nothing happened.
As I told earlier that I am a newbie so only thing for me was to Hit and Try.
First I tried downloading same file Android v. 5.0.0 from some other source and repeated the process but no luck. Afterwards I start following some other tutorial to get back my phone, I tried Part. 2 and Part. 3 both from sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26464" this tutoria and I was having these errors:
Part 2: 4.4.4(Farsat Sagvan).zip file
Code:
Error Sideload package.zip status 7
Part 3: 5.0.1(Farsat+Sagvan).zip file
Code:
Signature verification failed
I didn't new how to solve "Error Sideload package.zip status 7" but for "Signature verification failed" I tried installing both CWM and TWRP using Odain but every time I tried installing it Odain throws FAIL message (tried couple of versions of Odain as well as CWM)
After failing each time here is the last thing what I tied "trueandroid.com/i337ucufmld-android-4-4-2-kitkat-firmware-on-att-galaxy-s4-sgh-i337-test-build-how-to-guide/" from this site

Getting this kind of log from odin. note this is copy from another thread, otherwise same but buildnumber is different..
I can't even flash twrp/philz recovery. without getting some error, PIT related.
I can't access recovery by anymeans as it wil boot up to that ''smart switch blablabla'' and pc will say it is not supported etc.
I only can access download-mode.
I have tried flash stock 5.1.1 PIT but it makes no difference.
This is 32gb model. How deep i'm in brown?
Got this working!
First i used odin 3.10.7 -> all fails
Then tried 3.10.6 -> first try successfully only that hidden.img was failed but i extracted from firmware and and flashed it after that.
Hope this helps someone.
if you had used smart switch on your pc, it was a lot easier............:good:

Flash a firmware again with pit file. Make sure you are using the correct pit file as each model and region needs a certain pit file.

On a side note, I bought this phone second hand on the back of the phone theres a 16 digit Imei if i remove the last digit and search it on an IMEI checker it says my model number is G925A where as when the phone worked it showed G925F I have tried Flashing Att pit but that doesnt work. Is there something I should know about a 16 digit imei?
Did you fix the issue because i got this message too and can't find a solution.

were you able to figure out the issue yet? i am having the same exact problem on my s7.
I sent it to a local phone repair shop and they fixed it, try to find the combination file(if you know how to use it) and i personally think after the combination file is flashed, you will be able to flash the stock firmware again with no issues.
I DID NOT TRY THIS METHOD, but i think it would work.
I personally would try it. It's up to you.
Kind regards,

I am more of a Moto user... Combination file.. the AP/BP/CR/CSC? How do I know which are the proper files for my device?
PM me your firmware specs that you see on recovery and I believe we can make this work.
