I recently flashed cm7, works great. The only thing I'm having trouble is with the apps. I can't download the apps I had previously from the market because It says I have them installed already.
So how do I fix this/restore my apps?
thanks
Try and clear data for the market app and see if that works for you.
Erm, how exactly?
If you go into settings and then applications. Find market under all and click clear data.
Part of my problem is that I don't have the market app installed
Did you flash a Gapps package when you flashed your ROM? That will give you Market and other basic Google apps. I believe CM is packaged without an integrated Gapps loadout for legal reasons.

No I didn't flash Gapps, I just installed market via apk, cleared the data but I can't use the market cause I cannot set up a profile that its asking for.
How would I go about this Gapps package?
There was no data to clear anyways.
About to try this
wipe data+cache
flash cm7
wipe data+cache
flash gapps
If you wiped system, cache, and dalvik cache before you installed CM7, you shouldn't even need to wipe. You'll just reboot into recovery and flash the Gapps .zip just like you flashed your ROM.
As far as finding it, I'd just Google "cm7 Google apps" or "cm7 gapps", you'll find a download link for the .zip. Keep in mind that, unlike the ROM itself, the Gapps package isn't specific to one model phone.

Which cm7 version are you using?
Sent from my ADR6350 using xda premium
In that case you might want to start from scratch:
Boot into recovery -- nandroid backup -- factory reset -- wipe dalvik cache -- install cm7 -- flash gapps.
And yeah, check to make sure you're using a current stable cm7 build.

What version of CM7 did you flash?
depending on the version of cm7, i would flash one of aero's kernals
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/7717-kernel-aeroevan-vivow-kernels-for-aosp/
v8 needs to be for 7.2 otherwise, flash .7 version.
7.2 + Aero kernel .8 is an amazing combination. Do that!

I installed CM 7.0.3 and there is no way to access the market or anything. I then went into the accounts section under settings and it only lets me add an Exchange account. How can I fix this? I'm on Clockworkmod 3.xxxx if that is important information
Download and flash the Google Apps pack available through CM7. Use CWM to flash it without clearing anything. It will work perfectly.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I installed google apps and everything is working perfectly. Thank you!
yeah but now its time to flash 7.1.
I have just installed cm7 onto my epic 4g. I have been trying to get the stock apps, ie gmail, market, etc.. I love the rom but I guess it didn't come with the bloat ware.. is there anyway to get them? I cannot add a gmail account either, server won't respond.

Don't the instructions mention to flash the gapps? I remember reading that when I installed it. I know there is only a google search link for gapps now. Gapps as in Google Apps.

So I'm using ROM manager and it has the gapps listed however after it finishes I get the options to "Back Up ROM, Wipe Data and Cache and Wipe Dalvik Cache". Is this the proper way to get these apps to work? If so, which option would I choose? I am kinda a noob to roms so this is a little confusing for me.

If you want to backup the ROM then fine, otherwise wipes are not even required. I don't wipe at each upgrade at all. It never hurts anything to wipe Dalvik and cache and can only help.

Ok so I had attempted to back up my ROM however it froze so I had taken the batterie out and now I cannt get into recovery mode at all, it just goes back to that frozen screen where it was attempting to back up the ROM. Any ideas how I can fix that?

So I fixed that but now when I use the market, no app will download due to an unknown error.. any ideas?

Try clearing data in the market app. Use Titanium.

Hello, as of now i am on the CDMA CM9 nightly ROMs. I have recently installed a mod that tweaks the notification bar, which can be found here. Since i have installed it do i have to do anything different when flashing the latest nightly? correct me if im wrong.
1. Make a nandroid backup
2. install zip from sd (do i need to wipe?)
3. chose the latest nightly
and after i install the latest nightly will i have to reflash my kernel and mod i previously installed?
Thanks in advance!
If you are installing a nightly on top of CM9 you should wipe both cache and dalvik cache before flashing.
And yes, you will have to re-flash any mods or kernels as well.

So if I flash a nightly on another nightly I have to wipe both the dalvik and normal cache? But I don't have to clear all user data, right?

No need to wipe data. You may need to flash gapps again after the rom flash though.

If I boot up without gaps I can always flash it by going back into clockwork right?

Long time reader, not into posting, so my post count is low.
I have a issue. I flashed IceCream Senseless V1.0 yesterday. My market is not working. I keep getting the force close with the following.
"The application Google Play Store ( Processcom.android.vending) has stopped unexpexpectdly. Please try again."
I was able to download Titanium Back Up from the Market right after the flash. This morning I had notices for updates to apps, I clicked to open them, and thats when the FC startted. I was not able to download the updates.
This is my favorite rom so far. Any thoughts on a fix?
What GApps are you using? I had that problem when using evervolv so I just downloaded the newest GApps and did a full wipe plus a fresh install.

Have you tried clearing data for the Play Store? If so, you may just have to reflash the rom either without wiping or doing a full wipe and flash.

If I'm not mistaken, the rom is based on Sense and Gingerbread so there are no GApps to flash. It's all included, just themed for ICS.

Awesome! Glad everything worked out.
I accidentally deleted the download file on my phone from titanium backup now i cant go on android market plus also whenn i start up my phone i get something like a gapp error
Deleting the download folder shouldn't effect the ability to open/use the play store.
The only thing I could think of that should fix the issue, is to do a full wipe and eflash the ROM (and gapps if required for the ROM you are using).

Or try to just reflash gapps first.

I think he deleted the download apk which is an essential system component. If reflashing gapp doesn't work, I would suggest reflashing the ROM.

Reflash the rom wothout wiping, then flash gapps. It won't delete anything of yours

i have stockorama...I'm sorry I'm new to this so I would have to go into the zip and find the gapp folder then flash it???
The ROM and gapps are two separate zips. Flash the ROM first,then gapps package.

There are no gapps zip for touchwiz ROMs, the apps are already included in the ROM.
Do a full wipe and reflash the ROM.
You could just wipe cache and dalvik cache, but I would recommend just doing a full wipe and starting over to avoid further issues.

+1 didn't think about it being a two ROM. Been on aosp for so long. Lil. Yeah always nice to start fresh and clean, especially after something goes awry.

none of that worked =( luckily i had a backup of my phone before stockorama but now when n i try to readd stockorama doesnt work or if i do get it to work google play store doesnt work =(
also it just reboots into recovery each time but also during the installer it doesnt download any google apps
Touchwiz comes with the playstore and other samsung apps. You flash gapps when you are using an aosp based rom like jellybean. If reflashing the Stockoroma rom does not help my only suggestion is to download stock rom and firmware and then from there reflash the Stockorama rom. I'm pretty sure there is an easier solution to this but that is what I would try.
