[Q] Android Market doesnt' work

hi, im new to rooting. i've just rooted my desire with cyanogenmod 7, and the android market doesn't seem to work? i can't download google map or any other apps from it. any help? thanks alot.

any help? thanks

i guess you tried rebooting? that worked the last time I had problems with cyanogenmod, that being said i don't use it daily so I'm no expert

yup, i tried rebooting but it didn't work too..

Try wiping the cache, if that doesn't work, do a factory reset and wipe everything, do a fresh install and put gapps on.

does that mean i have to flash it back to stock rom and start all over again?

Have you tried to flash the G-apps again? Here's the link of the newest one: Google apps choose the CyanogenMod 7 (Gingerbread) version and flash it with Rom Manager or Recovery.

have you modified the .zip file , deleting some files for exemple?
I done it, and removed "Package Installer.apk" one time, so downloads were beginning but stopped each time immediately

Market download issues
I'm having similar issues using GingerVillain 1.9. Small market updates are downloading without issue, larger ones such as the latest Google Maps update are giving the message "download unsuccessful". I had similar issues when the market was updated from the old style, and wonder whether google are tinkering in the background.

i don't think i've removed any of those files..

I am having similar problems. I have installed the gapps, but it only installs a couple of google apps. When I try to install from the market some install fine but others (angry birds for example) don't. I see the downloading icon for split second then it goes away and the download stops.
Any ideas?

[Q] CyanogenMod Play Store removed?

Hi, I just installed CyanogenMod,but the problem is the Play seems to be missing... I tried installing the apk I found within my directory, but with no avail, it would just open and close almost immediately.
Any/All help is appreciated! Thanks!

Toy need to install the gapps packages for your specific version of cyanogenmod. The gapps don't cone pre installed

Thanks, I installed those, and now the keyboard that came with CM10 will not work and constantly tells me it has crashed. Rendering the phone unusable. I then installed a custom keyboard, (found an APK) and signed into my google account, but the phone now will not use the home button, and the google sync and google services won't work.

Do a factory reset, flashing the Rom then the gapps package, then reboot.

^ gesture typing =D
back to OP
you need to install gapps
and the error you got after is because you need to wipe and then reinstall the rom and gapps
you can't just flash gapps after started the rom

Flashed new rom, Now won't connect to Google

So last night i flashed a rom and when it installed i tried to add a google account. I tried to add an existing account. when i added my information it says that i couldn't sign in" there was a problem communicating with google servers." this means that i can't go into the play store. so i went into the TWRP menu to reflash a rom and it doesn't recognize the .img file that is on there. so basically right now i an app-less. any help is welcomed
i still can make calls and text, and my wifi still works. just no connection to google
my device is HTC One M8 AT&T (rooted and boot loader unlocked)
and i have a Mac computer if that helps

Delet your existing Google account from your phone.
Go into Settings > Apps > All and clear cache and data on all Google services:
Play Store, Play Services, Maps, G+ - the works.
Then restart and try again to add your Google account.

I put Android Revolution HD as the rom i tried to install. Its not the first time i installed this particular rom. I didn't have an issue last time. I'm not sure i did a clean install as I'm pretty new to this

That could be it then. Something left behind from another rom install.
As a general rule, if you switch between roms - even from the same base - I would always clean install. Only updates of the same rom are ok to dirty flash.
For a clean install (if you have TWRP) just choose Wipe and swipe the button, then re-flash the rom. You will have to install your apps and tweaks again, but that's a small price to pay for everything working.

I figured it out. Basically because I used my Mac to transfer the ROM to my phone it was unzipped and that made twrp not see it as a ROM its all fixed now

On which version were you prior to updating to 12.1 snapshot? If you were on 11.0 snapshot you might want to consider a clean flash (factory reset, then flash ROM, then flash gapps). I did it like that and had no problems so far.
Good luck

Try "open gapps" I always have good results using those. Maybe try a fresh install of Lollipop though with FULL wipes including system. If not at least wipe cache and dalvik after flashing.

Since I have less than 10 posts I can't paste links, but gapps file that I used is the one suggested by CyanogenMod. Google "CyanogenMod gapps". Go to first link (it should be CM wiki page). Scroll down until you find table with version 12.1 "Download: GitHub". Click on it. Now, when on GitHub scroll down and click "arm". Now select the latest zip file (at the time of writing this, it's "gapps-5.1-arm-2015-07-17-13-29.zip"). If it doesn't start downloading click on "view the full file" or "View Raw".
If that doesn't work, try doing as RuffBuster said.

meanwhile https://cyngn.com/support got updated

Hey, I'm new to rooting and I'm wondering how I should go about installing this update. I assume I can't just download it OTA, so what steps should I go through to install the update? Should I use the update pack from cyanogen support (can't post link)? If so, which one? cm-12.1-YOG7DAS2FI-crackling-signed-fastboot-07863145a7.zip or cm-12.1-YOG7DAS2FI-crackling-signed-81d046434c.zip? Sorry for my noobishness!

Is your firmware stock? Then OTA should announce itself and install fine (unless perhaps if your phone is encrypted).

OK . you can then download the official firmware and install it. When prompted by TWRP recovery to install SU chose NO.

The cm-12.1-YOG7DAS2FI-crackling-signed-81d046434c.zip updater-script does not seem to wipe data.
You may want to wipe dalvik and /cache first though.

OK, one last thing: How do I flash the zip? Can I just put it on my phone and use TWRP to install it? Or do I have to use adb? And what's dalvik?

You flash using TWRP. The zip can be put on sdcard (internal or external).
The dalvik cache holds some sort of compiled java code. For minor upgrades one can perhaps leave it untouched. For major upgrades one typically wipes it. It does not hurt to wipe dalvik cache. After install, it is regenerated as part of the android upgrade.
Note that stock firware is probably unrooted so you may want to reinstall supersu update zip from twrp. Also, upgrade may or may not overwrite twrp with stock recovery so you may have to reflash twrp.
I have not done the upgrade myself (I will one day, I have no Swift, a friend has one).
Success

Ok, I flashed the update, everything works fine except that every few seconds I get a box that says "Unfortunately, Google Play Services has stopped.". Super annoying!
EDIT: Allowing wakelocks for Google Play Services in Privacy Guard fixes it.

@seb5049
Just for my information: did you wipe dalvik-cache?
Google Play and Google Play Services typically may get updated / changed during or right after upgrade.
