I recently installed nightly build #6 of cm7 for the first time and I don't have market, Gmail,etc. I have searched the forums and have already tried installing Google apps via rom manager. My phone enters recovery for a split second then rebooted and still no apps. Also my Rom manager is no longer the premium version. Any help would be appreciated!

I don't use any of the nightly builds of CM7.
However, I don't understand why you can't just place the apk onto your root and click to install.
Or better yet, use root explorer and just place the entire apk into the apps folder.
Those 2 aren't options?
Unfortunately I'm not near a computer and I'm brand new to cm7 so I wasn't sure if there is just a quick fix. Also I would like to know how I can get my apps back without having titanium anymore and no market..
Hello there.
I recived a brand new ViewPad 7e (the lowcost tab from ViewSonic) yesterday. Everything works fine (or, almost fine for that price...), but the 7e come without AndroidMarkets (nor Gmail apps, Google Account etc...). It's possible to use alternat market, but I'm looking to use the original one (and, most important, to set up a google account synchronysed with calendar) anyone got an idea to install that ? (I tried some trick for Archos etc... but nothing seems to work atm).
If somone got an idea... thanks in advance
My guess would be that it's missing the gapps framework, you can try installing the architecture independant gapps package from CM7, which "should" work.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Latest_Version/Google_Apps
Well, it worked by installing the gapps manually, the last point will be to put the market 3.1.3 or so (for the moment I only have th old one), thx again for your help.
Where can I find how to install gapps manually
you said it's possible, where can I find the steps to install it manually?
Thanks

Hi, I also get a Viewpad 7e, and download the Google Apps from CM7
But I could not install in manually after I unpack the Google Apps package.
System will say it is an invalid APK.
Could you help to release the package you install and installing steps?
Thanks.

I have the same problem : "System will say it is an invalid APK".
Could you explain what you think we are doing wrong ?
Thanks
Guys, cm7 market would not work for our devices as it doesnot meet the criteria for having google market. Yes is ironic but for now we have to rely on the market we have. We have to wait till someone make cm7 work forr our viewpad.
there's a way but i need to translate it because its in chinese i got it it on mine
charlies1112, if you can, it would be really nice to explain how you did it.
Yesterday, I was able to root the viewpad 7e using Gingerbreak v1.20.
Thank you in advance
instructions for getting android market on the viewpad 7e
go download this file from this link:
dl.dropbox.com/u/34743606/v7e.zip
put those five files onto the micro sd card
Step 1:
settings>applications>unknown sources>tick it
settings>applications>development> USB debugging> tick it
Step 2:
Go to the inbuilt app ES File Explorer
find the GingerBreakv1.20.apk
install the GingerBreakv1.20.apk (I installed it on mine but it made my micro sd card useless i dunno what was with this but it still got gingerbreak on it it just made card die so use at your own risk =_= it still install it fine tho might of been a defect of a cheap card)
Root the device by going through the steps
When you complete the steps you should see Superuser in your applications
Go back to ES File Explorer
Find Root Explorer v2.14.2.apk
Install Root Explorer v2.14.2.apk
Click allow for permissions for the Root Explorer
Once you have Root explorer installed open it and fine the folder sd card
Press and hold the Vending.apk until the menu pops up and choose copy
go back to Root Explorer
go to system
go into app
on the top press Mount R/W
and then press the paste button on the bottom
Find where you pasted Vending.apk
Hold Vending.apk for the menu and press permissions
Make sure all the columns are ticked and select OK
once you get to this step you should see the market icon but you're not done yet you need to go through the same thing you did for Vending.apk for GoogleServicesFramework.apk and MarketUpdater.apk
and you should get it i'll paste the chinese website the author posted pictures

okay here is my problem. If i remember, i took Adfree program or another similar ad blocker (for what i remember, its was simple to install)
My life was nice, no more ads in my free version of angry birds etc...BUT
am an hockey fan and i go on a site to view videos report of my team. The problem is when i try to watch thoses vids streaming, normaly theres a 15sec ad vid before the one i wanna see, but cause of that adfree program, i cant see the vid anymore, it is just loading and nothing is happening. Here is a screenshot
For your information, i tryed with my desktop computer and it work fine, i tryed uninstall and reinstall flash and it runs perfect on other sites.
So i wanted to remove the adfree program but it is not showing anywhere in my apps running or installed.
1- Anyone have a clue?
One more thing, i did rooted my tab with success, i can use rom manager but yesterday i tryed to open Titanium backup and it told me my tab wasnt rooted...
i see the superuser icon in my apps so..
2- Any clues on that one too?
Thanks for ur help
if you have cwr then install a custom rom on your tab, I recommended one of task's they come with internet ads blocked and flash view work fine, and are just better than stock roms in every way

reboot the device,
1. check for the adfree or adblock app in the application manager.
2. try to reload the titanium backup couple of times or check in the superuser whether titanium backup is allowed for root access.
To Beta : i dont want to install any custom rom for now, but thanks for ur advice

1- i closed and started device like 10 times since i got this problem, i checked in app manager installed, running, all, cant find any track of an ad blocker program. i also checked with file manager HD
2- Fixed for titanium
please help me for #1
I think you granted temporary root permissions to Titanium Backup, so if you close the app, and open it again, you have to grant root again. You should click on "remember" checkbox.
Another thing you can do, is to open update SuperUser app from the Market, and then, open it, and go to Settings ---> Check binary SU updates, so you have the latest SU binary version.
About the flash thing, i have no idea, but.. have you tried with another Browser?? (Personally, i use Opera. Works like a charm. Really fast & smooth).
Hope i helped,g ood luck bro!

As i stated in post #4, problem is fixed for Titanium backup
My Main Problem is still there though.
Its not a question of using a diff browser, i want to delete/uninstall the adfree app from my tab dot.
The thing is that i cant find it anywhere, i even tryed to open titanium to see if adfree apps is showing so i cant delete data, but its not showing.
So i really need help now because i dont know where to look to find this freaking app and remove it.
Adfree or adblocker or whatever the name is, is not showing :
In app manager (running, installed, all)
In Titanium backup
In file manage HD (well i dont know exactly where to search but havent find anything with a similar name)
plz help
EDIT:
More info
usually when u install an app and u go back to the market, its say "open" instead of "install" well for adfree it still tell me "install"
Now i also searched a bit on the forum and i found some ad blocker program can be use without installing anything but by replacing an Host files.
I dont remember if it was my case, maybe since it doesnt seem that a have any adfree app installed BUT
I usually keep a copy of everything i put on my tab, and been around computer world for long enough to do a "backup" of any file i would replace.
I've looked on my pc, no sign of any host files that i dl or backuped.
So im totally out of anwsers.
One thing for sure, i did install something to removes ads and it work.
For the love of god, please help me !!

Try to uninstall it with titanium. Or use a file manager, navigate to /data/app, find the apk and delete it!

Guys, i appreciate your help but please READ,
the app is not showing anywhere, so how can i uninstall something that i cant see.
please go back to this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19412507&postcount=6
i really need help with the host files
i want to get back to default (ads allowed)
where to go ?
What you have to do is manually edit/replace the host file with a stock one.
Go to /system/etc/ and remove all the entries from the file named 'hosts' except the following one
127.0.0.1 localhost
OR
flash this zip in CWM

you can try updating the /system/etc/hosts file with
127.0.0.1 localhost
then reboot it.

Just a wild guess, but what browser are you using? Is it possible you installed the adblocker not as an app, but as a browser add-on extension? If so, you should be able to remove it from within the browser or make an exception rule for that one site.

am using the default web browser and like i wrote before.
I changed the hosts file following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509997
the hosts file i changed is the one located in /system/etc/hosts
the problem is that i didnt backup this file before replacing it, i never do that but it seem this time i did it.
So im looking for either the original host file or a way to put an exception for the site i want.

Then try redownloading the apk file. Maybe download is corrupt or something.
And if possible, use google play
Astro is just root explorer that can be used to explore root files. It doesnt have anything regarding installation of APKs (apps) unless they have to be thrown directly into FS.
I tried to redownload, I also downloaded from another mirror...
I can't download from the store because what I'm trying to install is a full cracked version...
I guess something in ICS doesn't allow the installation of these kinds of APKs...
