Google play store is missing after installing Cyanogenmod 12.1 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I installed CyanogenMod 12.1 to my galaxy S2(GT-I9100) along with gapps. (Later I tried the same with different gapps too) and everything went good, I successfully installed both zip from CWM 6.0.4.x.
But after I switch on my phone, after all initial steps, I noticed Google Play app is missing, all other gapps are present.
I have used same gapps file for installing in Galaxy note (GT-N7000) along with CyanogenMod 12.1 and Google play store is present
This is first time I'm facing these kind of issue with CyanogenMod installation.
Anybody can help on this issue?

If the package doesn't install, you cannot move it into system/app, i think that the gapps package is broken, try to download it again

I missed to format system partition. I just done factory reset and dalvik cleaning.
After cleaning system & other partitions and installing all again, play store started showing.

Resurrection Remix ics v2.3 - Google Maps Issue
Hi,
I have been following the posts on the Resurrection Remix ics v2.3 main development thread and the suggested steps don't quite work for me.
1. Using Root Explorer.
-Copy Maps and StreetView from System/App to Data/App
-Reboot device
-Access Play Store and attempt update which will fail
-Perform uninstall and reboot
-Install both apps from Play Store
*This did not work. Error: Incompatible...*
2. Using Titanium Backup
-Uninstall Maps and StreetView from System/App
-Reboot device
-Access Play Store and install both apps
*Same error msg*
I tried to Wipe Delvik Cache and Fix Permissions when attempting a second round of the above but did not resolve the issue. In all attempts, I did the FAQ Guide on Installing the ROM.
It seems these steps works for others but unfortunately not me. Hopefully someone could advise me further and any other information needed.
Thank you!

1) r u on stock 240dpi, and still the issue then delete data/cache of the map app from manage apps and check updating, still issue persists then simply reflash the rom without any wipes
2) if ur on dpi other than stock 240 then try cahnging the dpi first to stock 240 then update market if it goes fine then rewert back to ur earlier dpi
Hi Sun90,
I did the steps you suggested and sadly it does not work but on a good note, a new version has been released and a fix is indicated.
I'll try that update and will check it out. Thank you for the assist.

[Q] Motorola Atrix | play store is missing | cm10-2012112 by th3bill

hey guys,
i wanted to try something new on my Atrix so i flashed the CWM, cm10-20121112 and the chooseoptions from th3bill.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790036&page=45 old thread from jokersax11
install was successfully and the atrix booted up with no problems but then i realized that the play store is missing.
i reinstalled the cm10.zip and the chooseoptions.zip, whiped cache and delviks cache but it doesn't show up anyway.
then i tried installing the play store with the 'Play Store APK 3.9.16' - but when i start the app it runs into an error --> no connection to server.
any clue what i can do ?
thanks in advance!
When you want the google apps you have to flash gapps on top of the rom.
you can use epinters zip (which you can find here)
hi,
thanks for your reply.
i flashed the zip on top like you said, but gapps didn't show up.
i will re-flash the rom again later and will try flashing the gapps.zip on a clean rom.
but gapps also should be included into the "optionchooser" package.

gapps is short for google apps, there will never be a gapps app but it will install play store, maps, etc.
I never tried aroma so didn't know the optionchooser included gapps.
normally if you install gapps and reboot it will start the rom with the basic setup of google account etc.

[Q] First try CyanogenMod. I need some help here

Hi. Noob on Forum.
I decided to Install CyanogenMod on my Xoom MZ601 model.
Bootloader unlocked, cwm installed, Cyanogenmod also installed without problem.
I use the last NIGHTLY-BUILD ---> cm-10.1-20130410-NIGHTLY-everest.
Now the problem. I tried to install gapps.
I downloaded the latest gapps for jelly bean 4.2.2 ----> gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip from goo.im/gapps/ (cannot write the complete url on the first post)
Install zip from sdcard etc using cwm. And everything seems to be perfect.
Except one. None google app is not installed. Or at least not shown nowhere on my apps.
Any idea what's wrong? How to fix that? I like jelly bean but I need gtalk, youtube, play store, google maps etc.
First u need add your Google account in phone setting> account.
Then just install YouTube, Gmail, maps etc. Those Google apps that can be downloaded from market aren't included in gapps flashable package.
I add my gmail account and I made again the gapp proccess. Still the same result. I have no problem to download all the apps from market. But I have not play store on my apps.

You have to flash the gapps at the same time as the rom as the gapps package has more then just app apks in it and it needs to be able to write to the proper areas.
How to do that? The first thing after installing ROM was to install gapps. I think that we are on a good way to find the solution :good:

When you flash the rom dont reboot, flash the gapps right after and then reboot. You will have to reflash the rom with a full wipe.
I made a wipe of disk and cache. I install rom and gapp. After, I rebooted, I add gmail account, I rebooted again and now I have News and Weather app on my apps but not play store.

I mean post the link you used to get the gapps zip file. if the browser FC then the zip maybe corrupted due to it being updated with the new play store
Try installing the new playstore yourself.

[Q] After Upgrade from 10.1 to 10.2 I have no GPS anymore

I folowed the instruction and cleared my device in the recovery menu. Idid not install gapps.
After that I installed Osmand and GPS Status. Non of them gets a GPS Fix. GPS Status do not show one satellite and the GPS Icon itself in the Info area do not appear while I use an App who need GPS.
what should I do?
Cyanogenmod I use at moment:
cm-10.2-20130914-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip from get.cm

install the Gapps meant for CM 10.2 and then check
Pleas Explain that.
That seams strange. What has Google to do with GPS?
I did not install gapps becaus I am looking for a minimal version. I Only need the Play Store. I do not net maps, gmail, +, Feedback, Talk, hangout, etc.
Must be a bug with the 10.2 nightly version did you try mentioning this in the main thread?

I was checking out CM 10.2 latest releases and found that its a pretty well known problem here is an official CM page which lists it
Thanks a lot...
Thanks a lot for that. My Problem was in this Forum I was not able to detect the main tread. My level of knowing was not high enough.
Maybe I could take your knowledge. Did you know how I could install gapps only with the Playstore? I checked the Gapps Zip file could I delete all other apks from /system/app/ in the ZIP file?

Yes u can give it a try, but first make a nadroid bkp of ur current setup
Aslo use '7Zip' on ur PC to edit that gapps zip file then copy it on to ur sdcard (internal) and flash it from recovery and see
PS- also try updating Cm10.2 to the latest available nightly wide 'CM updater' and see if it resolves ur GPS issue

As the above poster said you could try that pretty much safely, though you must be careful in not removing other playstore related file's like play services as sometimes their lack of presence will give you a barrage of fc's from play store, other apps like YouTube, Map's etc can be safely removed, I suggest you flash gapps as it is and use an app like system cleanup to remove the system apps you don't need as it will probably remove the associated lib file's and you won't have to worry about them yourself.

Thanks for your inputs. I deleted the File wich where clear and deaktivated the others one in the App management.
