I have this problem now since the other day. I can seem to install not all the apps I want to install from Play Store. For example, I can install Titanium Backup but not Solid Explorer Beta. I can perfectly browse the internet through my phone though. Why is this?
Had tried clearing cache and data of Google Play Store and Google Services but still no avail. Tried inputting account details from the Play Store directly but still the same problem. I finally I had done a clean install of CM9b1 with no any extra tweaks nor mods added but sadly problem is still there.

LOL mate,chill..Too many questions there that i can't really answer it lol.Ok,I am creating my first custom rom here.And i just copy and paste in the system/app directory then i repacked the cm9 based rom and flashed to my phone to test it and the play store crash.What could be wrong here?

Just install googleplay.apk from outsource ,works. :beer:

It cause by the google play have a strict policy on collecting info about every detail information regarding phone we use to make sure every app we download will 90% compatible with our phone. Every single phone already been registered on google play database
such as:
1. Phone model
2. Procesor
3. Ram
4. Kernel
5. Stock rom
So when we change rom, google play doesnt recognise our device anymore because on google play database our phone doesnt exist.
As example:
Goggle play data:
1. Samsung galaxy w:
a). Stock rom; gingger beard 2.3.6
We change the rom as follow:
2. Samsung galaxy w:
a). Stock Rom: Cm9 mod
As mention above google play not knowledge our phone anymore that's why it'll reject our request to download or update app. Bcause on google play database samsung galaxy w rom should be gingger beard not a cm9 mod

Like i said above to make google play work again we somehow have to make our Cm9 rom to be recognise by google play.
And all the tips i say above maybe somehow make google play think my cm9 rom are gingger beard 2.3.6 with lil modification that google play still tolerate it.
Have u try my tips above?
Or u can try install google play from out sources. But whatever the cases its a very complicated system.
See the global picture "U must make ur phone as similiar as the Base phone model, so google play can recognise it"

though one to accomplished

1. Very nice job mate. To repackaged n built ur own.
2. Its very hard task to do mate:
a). U must have a complete knowledge on how cm9 been built (which is i'm sure, its very complicated things)
a.1). To actualy gain it. You must comunicate with the builder in this case arco68.
a.2). After u got the knowledge then u must re-code the program (google play) behaviour in order to make it able to run on cm9.
3. Without those above. I dont think it can be done. Because google is a system on rom base. It cant stand alone like others app. U can't just put it on system n hopes it'll works. U must make it united with the system first.
Hope this could answered your question

thanks

Its easy mate, see bellow:
A) What ROM do u use?
a.1). If Stock Rom. Just do factory data reset. But make sure u do back up data first. Since all data will lost.
a.2). If CM9 Rom, do have any back up data before u install d google app? If any just restore it via CWM recovery
a.3). If CM9 rom not have nandroid back up. Im very sorry u need to re-flash CM9. Wipe cache/Wipe dalvik cache/Wipe batere/Fix permision/install CM9/Instalk Gapps.zip. there i bet ur google play will run smooth as ever. And if u still can't downloaded app via gplay. I suggest u can follow my tips above, if still not do. Try emptying ur apn proxy n port. Or deleted ur gplay account then re-add it.

If this rom is .587 based then yes just extract this app from the rom.

I'm not sure what do you want but if you are looking for a walkman app then try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871231

I'm using CM10 with Fusion kernel and its the best option right now for everything (my personal opinion). Its almost as good as stock GB for gaming, its stable (almost), looks so much better than Sony's software. I love it. I'm planning to flash back to stock when it gets hot outside for a camera but after holidays I'm going back to Cyanogen <3

Thanks for sharing..i will try it now

[Q] X-Gamer V2 - Does anyone have this ROM?

I had this rom at one time, I want to only use it to take out the systemui.apk and copy it to my current ROM, stock setup. Currently I have systemui.apk for NXT LE and I can do the pull down and slide the menu options back and forth and they all work perfect, but now I want to try out X-Gamer and found the download link removed.
See here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2274484
So if anyone should happen to have the rom can you send me a link for just the systemui.apk? Or the whole rom if you dont want to extract that would be great too. Thank you in advance.

Anyone?

That rom have some "illegal" apps in it, so it was deleted in few days after released.
I had that rom in pc, but unfortunatelly, i had to do clean-up due low hard-disk space.
Maybe @smokerman have it still, he made a video review of it.
But systemUI from that rom looks familiars, if i manage to recall where did i see it, i'll post it here

[Q] Is the stock rom "good enough"?

I'm taking over a friends old R800i next week and I'm really looking forward to it since I've wanted one of these since about when it was released.
What I'm looking for is a rom that gives me all the usual stuff - GSM connection, working 3G, wifi, gps, sms, mms, camera - but, will a custom rom give me better performance for emulation?
I want to be able to emulate all kinds of consoles without losing too much performance due to the rom - nor do I want my battery to get drained while the phone isn't in use. I'm of course ready to try a bunch of roms and I have looked at some of the threads, without learning much to be honest. I'm not even up to date with who's roms are the stable ones or which is the highest SE provided rom for Play either.
Looking to emulate N64, nes, PS and sega genesis, mainly.

If you root and debloat the stock rom, you will get excellent gaming performance. I went rom using custom roms and went back to stock as it provided the best performance all around.

Well Pizza_dox is an asshat refusing to answer on relevant questions in the thread he made for "the perfect setup", so I need a reliable source to go after since I have no idea what following the guide he provides will actually do to the phone (and I'm not going to learn by failing, hence why I ask questions which she/he refuses to respond properly to)

Please act respectful: PizzaDox has opened many manu threads, and he can't be repling at all of them.
Anyway debloating a rom is simple and can be done by everyone that wants to, by extracting the system.sin from your .79 ftf, dumping its data with flashtool in order to make it a yaffs img, extracting it with a yaffs extractor and then removing the apps located into "app" that you consider as bloat

[Q] [SOLVED] Request for TimeScape, Market & Preloaded Games & PSPocket

Hey guys im on stock debloated (yes i removed timescape & other stuff but i want it now for some reasons...) atm and i would really appreciate all the timescape files to have timescape working fully! also if possible can one provide me with a method/guide of how to get the stock android 2.3 market (and to stop it automagically updating), the one before the laggy and ugly ICS/KLP themes, and one more thing, if you could provide me with the PS1 Emulator thingy and the Crash Bandicoot.apk too, please, and just 1 last thing, could u also provide me with the .apk files of all the preloaded games!
I would do it myself but i don't want to reset/flash anything on my play for some reasons (in all seriousness its not laziness...)
Tnx in Advance,
EDIT
Thanks to Bakisha all i need now is The Pre-Installed Games & Timescape UI (just timescape ui, no fb or twitter),
EDIT
Extracted the System.sin from The .58 Enhanced v3 FTF and then extraced it with the sin extractor from flashtools then extracted the system stuffs from the system.yaffs2, so tnx for any help, but ive done it already,

I think market app will auto-update even if you install older version.
i think there is some app that can prevent auto-updating by patching, if you are lucky, you can find in google :silly:
