Sounds like a question for the dev. He is very active. I am guessing but there may be an issue with how you flashed. I always wipe system. Make a good backup and place it on your pc for safe keeping.

You need to flash Google apps.
It comes in a zip file (somebody linked it already) and u flash it just like a rom, after uv flashed the rom first usually. So go back to recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, install gapps.zip, should be all good from there

Gapps

So I noticed most JB ROMs have gapps seperate from the ROM. For some reason, when I flash the ROM then the gapps the phone boots back into recovery. But when I do just the ROM it boots fine. I'm on ascent V2 which is JB with gapps included.

I don't know if it was your on Rootz...
But another user (maybe two?) were having this problem as well.
I don't think we've found a specific solution...
Are you wiping and installing correctly?
Yeah I tried wiping before and after the install. if that's your question?

Flashing newer recovery.

I'm having issues with this and I don't want to try it without knowing what to do. I have cwm 5.5.0.x and want to go to the newest one to flash a ROM its not working. How do I flash the new recovery?
Can I just name it update.zip and flash that?

Try downloading ROM Manager from the Play Store and doing it that way.

Why not just go back to stock and wipe everything

You're obviously using a custom recovery. Just restore the backup you made before all this flashing.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I would just backup everything using your own recovery then flashing the stock firmware again and restoring your apps from the backup or if you want google now this rom has it working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1836108
Use titanium back up to back up your apps. If on CWM 5.xx, use darkside super wipe, reflash stock rom or a any custom t989 rom. If help needed with flashing, explore the dev section for more info.

Do a factory reset. Just back up your apps before you do it.

Google now cant be updated on JB

When I was on JB I was using google now by flashing some flashable zip version , I updated Jb without wiping my data from wildchild JB forum , now I m getting update for google now but every time I hit update I get error.
I tried to uninstall from titanium backup and reinstall again but no success.
Any solutions?

Your best option would be reflash and wipe

Just updated mine and I'm running cm10

I had the same problem on my girlfriends phone. Clear data on Play Store & uninstall updates. Reboot too if necessary.
Google now seems to be just one part of Google search these days, maybe that was it

Need Help with GApps for CM 10.1 Nightlies!

I have tried flashing the most recent gapps from Goo.im as well as the Gapps from Android 4.1.2. Neither are working for me. The older gapps causes constant error messages with gapps and the newest gapps does nothing when I flash it. Nothing gets installed. Help!
Tried thoose? http://rapidshare.com/files/3580601868/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip
Yeah I did. Nothing installs after I flash them. It is weird. Got them from goo im who has all of the gapps on their server in addition to pretty much any ROM you can think of.

I was having some errors and I found that a wipe data & cache was necessary. also, DO NOT select GAPPS 4.2 in the download and flash.
I did wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache before. And what did you mean by that last part?

It seems strange ... These on multi-ROM 4.2.2 worked fine for me .. Honestly I have not tried the latest CM but those gapps are recommended for cyano 10.1.x (4.2.2) .. The recovery is updated the latest version?
Yeah it is. I think I will give it a try again tomorrow with a later nightly. I can last on MMuzzy for another day or so LOL. It is a perfectly fine ROM, but after some time on practically stock, I want customization again.

with the touch beta I had several problems on various flash and for this reason I switched to twrp ... if gapps are good (MD5) the problem may be the revocery.
I have wondered about TWRP. How's it compare?

when I loaded Cyanogen 10.1 nightly, I did a wipe of data and cache and I did not select the GAPPS 4.2 because they are included in the ROM.
The latest nightly has gapps included?! Since when? The post here on xda says they don't and provides a link to gapps on goo.

I could be completely incorrect about the GAPPS being included but I'm just reporting what I did... I did NOT select the checkbox to download GAPPS 4.2 along with the 3/16 nightly that I loaded with a wipe data & cache and I have everything working including gmail, calendar, maps, nav, the new camera, etc.
using Rom Manager to download and flash...
Hmm I haven't tried through ROM manager so I might try tonight. Does it auto flash or just download the zip to your phone for you to manually flash in recovery? I usually install ROMs in recovery after wiping cache, davlik cache, and if needed, data wipe.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
So apparently using ROM Manager worked (thanks for the suggestion). What do you guys recommend for a kernel, though? I like Franco.Kernel, but after flashing it, my device does not detect my GNex dock. (Can't have it automatically do Daydream when I put it in the dock)

sorry for the late response... you probably already know that Rom Manager downloads the new ROM in the background and then prompts you to flash it along with presenting switches as to whether to wipe data and cache as well as performing a backup before flashing.
Yeah I used ROM Manager and it worked. They really have improved the app and are better now about keeping a current list of the hottest ROMs with most recent updates. Wish the wipe option had cache, dalvik cache, and data as separate options. Don't want to wipe data just to dirty flash a new nightly
