Did you flash the gapps that we used for CM6 (non-gingerbread) it wont work. You need to use the gapps package that is specifically for GB / CM7.
Download gapps-gb-20110120-signed.zip from here:

hi,
had the same issues with nightly build #6 and #7 of cm7 with gapps-gb-20110120- from h t t p://goo-inside.me/gapps/ as well as gapps-gb-20110115-signed.zip, all to no avail.
i finally gave up and returned back to cm 6.1.3
Same here too. No gapps

try mounting system and data before flashing, then unmount and fix permissions.. a wild guess, but might work
didn't help (
you are using 3.x recovery of course? just asking.. don't know then :/
Ask in the thread where you got your ROM from.
Closed.
I have searched on google and through each droid forum site I have been sent to from google trying to fix the problem that i am having. I am currently trying to intall Incredible re imaginedv2.3 on my HTC Incredible. I have tried installing through both ROM manager and through the actual recovery. When I go through ROM manager it fails on the install reboots my phone and freezes at the HTC logo. The same thing happens with the actual recovery. Fails on install asks for the update and it cant find the update.zip file. It then freezes on reboot. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong.
Sounds like a bad\corrupt download. Check your copy's MD5 with the ROM developers and make sure its not corrupt. Try downloading it again or download another ROM and try that.

its called incredibly reengineered actually lol
If youre trying it through revovery you need to "choose zip from sdcard" then scroll to downloads,using the update.zip is for something else

I have the zip on the root of my SD card. When ever I choose it it asks about the update.zip should I just hit no and ignore that step. I'm using the latest version of the clockworkmod. Version 3.0.5

Reengineered prefers. 92 HBOOT fwiw, but it will boot with an older version. That info is buried in the IncReEngineered thread. Plus, in recovery, you do NOT choose the option that says "apply update.zip", rather, you want the selection that lets you choose the zip file you want to apply.

i tired what you said and it just looped through the same steps. it repeatedly asks for the update.zip. i found something through google that said i should rename the ROM as update.zip and still no luck.
You need to download/flash 2.3.1 with cwm3.

Still no luck. I even tried another ROM and get the same problem has anyone else have this problem?

I dont know if this will help at all but i tried to install the ROM again last night and it said at the end of the error (status 7). Im currently looking it up but would you guys know anything about it?
Are you sure your checking apply zip from SD card and not update.zip. if you have a recovery image you should restore it and flash the rom thru rom manager

^ that, and if not, flash back to CWM 2.5.1.2, try installing then. I had to do that when I installed that rom. I know he updated it to work with 3.0, but try anyway. If it works you just just upgrade to 3.0 after flashing the rom.
Ok I will try that and post back with the results

Still no luck I still get the status 7 error, and it aborts the install. I even downgraded to 2.5.1.2 and it still fails. I am starting to think that i should stay with the one that I am running for a while before i try it again.
I did some quick searching for status 7 and found alot of solutions. Not sure which direction to point you but some common themes were hboot, radio, and permission (make sure read write).... with a specific error u should be able to figure this out. Also a major problem lies with all zips in their scripting since CW recovery update(cwr3 uses edify). Incredibly reengineered zip may need to be updated to be compatible but u think it'd be more common problem if this was the case.
Ok. I will look into all of them and see witch one works. Thank you for all the help.

You sure you have s-off? Check this out.....also make sure SD formatted fat32. I've seen it recommended to wipe twice without leaving recovery(worked for some)....if you try all you can and are still stuck pm koush. He'll set you straight
Is the SD card formatted as FAT32?
Does the SD card have ample free space?
Is the radio (baseband) version on your device at least 2.x?

I reformatted my sd card to FAT32 and it fixed the error. the only thing that i ran into this time is that it failed copying over at a certain line is that because i need more space on my sd card?
For some reason, I keep losing root privileges. This has happened on 2 roms now. What am I doing wrong??
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Are you using rooted ROMs or stock ROMs?
If the ROM you are flashing is a stock RUU then you will lose root.
Which ROMs are you trying?
How did you obtain root?
Have you got Radio and ENG S-OFF?
What recovery version are you using?
What method are you using to flash the ROMs?
Ive been using RCMix 6.1.0.1 and now Levo 1.3. Haven't had a problem with anything before when I've ran cm7 or froyo roms, or muiu.

I'm using the latest recovery. And have eng off. I haven't had problems until these last couple of weeks. And I've been rooted since December

What method are you using to get root back?
And I know it's a daft question but bear with me: What is happening that makes you suspect you are losing root?
I applied full wipe then flashed a new Rom. I thought it was rcmix to begin with but apparently not. Could it be something to do with recovery? All I've done is flash the ril and a different theme.

At the risk of sounding rude, I'm asking these questions for a reason.
I used visionary to root. Had to downgrade originally.
I am using 3.0.2.6 cwm.
I'm not sure what I have done. As I said I've not had problems before whilst using other roms, just 2.3 with sense.
I think I might just revert back to cm7.

Maybeyou'll answer if someone else asks What makes you think you are losing root, and how do you get it back ?

Are you selecting Temp Root only or do you choose Attempt Perm Root as well?
Are you checking the options box to ensure the changes stick after reboot?
And one that's just occurred to me, what makes you think you are losing root?
I'm not sure why this is occuring. I was hoping someone might gave an idea. I have done nothing different this time than in previous occasions.
To get root permissions back, I have to full wipe the phone, using the full wipe zip. I then reflashed a new rom (from rcmix to levo) which then gave me a fully functioning rooted phone again. However, the same issue has now come back.
Permroot was achieved ages a go. I have flashed many custom roms, radios, bootanimations etc. This has only happened in the last week.
When going to setcpu, it says phone does not have root permissions, this is the same in rom manager, gscript lite and titanium backup.

After you flash a new ROM does root disappear randomly a few days later or only the first time you flash the ROM (meaning you have to keep flashing ROMs twice)?
I get all the benefits of rooting back when i flash a rom for the 1st time. The lose it later.
I updated to cwm 3.0.2.8 then went back to 3.0.2.6 because it is the one rom manager recognises. Could this be an issue?

To be honest I have never heard of root just suddenly not working.
Have you got the superuser app installed? Are your running any task killers apps?
Did you use ROM Manager to flash the .2.6 recovery?
There's two versions of those easy-wipe zip things (don't use or like them myself), are you using the full wipe one? If so, to rule it out do the wipes manually in recovery before flashing the ROMs

Now you have!
Recovery was installed via Rom manager. Do you think flashing a new recovery image could help?

Are you checking and confimring the MD5HASH of the ROM files (all files) before flashing them?

Will answer that one after I know above.
I've had this happen a number of times on various ROM's such as Cyanogen, CoreDroid, RCHDMix etc... on each occasion nothing was changed that would have triggered a sudden failure of SU privileges. So, the reasons behind this remain a mystery (possible SU bug during ROM startup maybe that continues with all other restarts after?).
However, to remedy the problem I had to go to recovery menu and performed a wipe/reflash.
Annoying... yes. But as long as you do regular back up's then it's only 15 minutes to perform a full recovery and reinstallation of everything.
So far I've been using CoreDroid v6 since it was released without any issues like this (yet!).
Just to confirm, if you still have the SuperUser app installed, do your authorised apps still appear with a green dot next to them?)..
Superuser is installed and has green dots by those apps in need of such privileges. I don't use task managers.
I check md5 sums before flashing.
I have now fully wiped manually and restored a backup. SU privileges are back. I will not change anything and see if I lose them again or if its just me.
Thanks for all the input

Basically start again. Use ur recovery Ingram to restore, then root ur desire from scratch using visionary++ perm root, then eng-s-off, then Tom manager, flash clock mod, then flash new rom.?
Download terminal emulator from market type such and enter. If it returns # ur set.
Alright so long story short, just bought a 2 month old incredible off my buddy because he is a mactard and HAD to have an iphone.
The phone was rooted but I wanted to start from scratch so I formatted the sd card and performed a factory reset (within the phone, not thru recovery). In doing so, I no longer have access to the market - simply says "you don't have this application installed on your phone" when i try to open.
What is my best bet? Can I just flash a new rom and instal it in recovery? Is it possible to unroot at this point?
PS - I haven't set up the phone on the Verizon network yet so could this be the reason I can't access the market?
Any advice is much appreciated!!
sounds like you need to install google apps.
It would help if you said which rom you're on or if you're running stock but it does sound like flashing Google apps could fix your problem. Latest version is 5/3/11.

THanks I'll try that...you wouldn't happen to have a link to the .apk would you?
Its not an .apk, its a zip file flashed through recovery. ROM Manager has a GAPPS section at the very bottom under "Download ROM".

Ah that's right, I remember reading that in another forum...
Say I want a different rom though..if I simply flash a new one, will my Google apps exist?
Sorry for the rookie questions, still navigating my way thru the world of root, appreciate your guys' patience!
Pretty sure Google apps only need to be flashed with aosp roms, every sense rom I've flashed had the market and typical Google apps included.

hmmm didn't seem to work. Tried again after rom was installed and still nothing...any suggestions?
Nevermind we're good!
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.
