Unable to install Google Maps and youtube app - Nook Color General

Hello all:
I am having hard time trying to get google maps with youtube app installed. I am doing the SD setup which is all successful from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000957. I have used most recent nightly and cm_encore_full-161.zip. After installing gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip, it gets all of the apps but not google maps or youtube. What I have noticed is that it errors out on at least 3 apps when installing all remaining during initial setup wizard after successful gapps install from recovery.
Can someone help me out here on what I am doing wrong? Should I use ADB and install google maps manually if possible?

Okey.. I should have read all the new posts like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1218974&page=2 .
I have installed LCDdensity, set it to 160, killall, reboot, cleared data for market after force stop, works now.

Works but springpad screen screwy
Works great for market but spring pad screen is a grayed yellow when "my stuff" is accessed. Have to switch back to 161 and reboot.
Royal pain

yeah, the new market really sucks! I had to uninstall the update and freeze the market updater. now i have my old market back and now i can see and download everything

NC Honeycomb Some GApps Not Working

I recently rooted my NC and installed Honeycomb on it. I was finally able to (after days of trial and error) install the google apps on the Honeycomb via my Mac (I didn't have access to a PC).
Anyways, Maps works but that's about it. Gmail, Market, Talk do not work.
They don't even open and sometimes if they do they force close immediately. I never had the option to set up my google account when Honeycomb first launched on my NC. I'm wondering if that is the problem considering the apps that require your Google Account do not seem to be working.
I've tried to clear data from the application settings and even unistalled and reinstalled of them.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Issues with Market After Factory Reset

Alright, guys. I can't figure this one out. After wiping my nook, I planned to sell it to a family member that needs a tablet. When I wiped it and reinstalled RC1 of CM7.1, It brought me to the usual sign in, Gapps installer, blah blah blah. However, most of the applications said "item could not be found". Oh well....I'll just hop on the market and install the ones that failed, right? Wrong. I go to install them and they don't have an install button. I also tried wiping data/cache for the Google Framework and the market and restarting, fixing permissions, and reflashing the rom and Gapps. No luck. I tried signing into her account on market.android.com, and they say "this item is not compatible with this device". WHAT? I just had it installed. The apps that don't work are Maps, Youtube, and Adobe Flash Player. Otherwise, Gmail, Voice, and Voice Search all installed correctly. Weird. Anybody else run into this and know how to fix it?
Search a little. There must be a dozen posts about missing apps here....
Already did search. Didn't find anything like my issue.
I have not changed anything since last night when I had downloaded a few free apps and uninstalled others. This morning I started to do the same and have several free apps that I have no download button for as well. *Note: Apps are showing up in Market with all their info just no download button.
Hearing Saver and Myth Defense LF are two examples of apps that I have a download button for on my DroidX with CM7 but not on the NC.
*Should consolidate to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196417
Look around multiple threads going on about this. Find market in settings and then uninstall updates.

[Q] Unable to download from market with 3G

I have the Droid 3 and recently updated to 5.6.890.XT862 before the push and now unable to download anything from the Android Market only using 3G. I get the orange triangle stating : Download size requires Wi-Fi. Does not matter size of download.
I am able to download via Amazon appstore with 3G. Also once connected to Wi-Fi downloads work fine.
Any suggestions? is this a glitch with the S/W update?
Thanks
Settings > Battery & data manager > Data Saver, turn it off
I love it when its something dumb that I did. Thanks for the help.
I am also on a "pre released" .890 update and now the Market doesn't inform me of app updates.
I was browsing the market last night and noticed at least 5 app updates on my own. Every app was checked for automatic updating, and I checked my Market settings and the "Notifications" check box is absolutely checked! WTF.
That's been happening to me lately. I read about a google maps update and when I went to "My Apps" it didn't have any update available. I had to search for google maps then it had the update tab. It has done this on about 3-4 apps so far that I've noticed.
edit: I just noticed that I can't install any of my paid apps in the market unless I uninstall the market app update and install everything that I want until the market updates itself. I have no custom rom, latest .890, and rooted (no apps deleted/frozen). Any idea's?
edit 2: I turned off my wifi and market is working fine on 3g. I can download paid apps over wifi with older market app but not new market. I can download free apps from the market with wifi on. Weird?

I use a supplemental market called appbrain... A lot of times, I notice when I open that, it finds updates that the gmarket either normally wouldn't have found, or is just slow about doing it's job... :/

Google Maps Updates no matter what your settings are

I use an OLD version of Maps. It's simple, I'm used to it, so I stick with it.
Recently the Maps app started updating itself without prompt, without me going to the Market and selecting it. It updates despite the fact I have "don't auto update" set for all my apps on the Market app. I disconnected it from the Market in Titanium Backup but that only lasts for a short time as you probably all know. I found a setting in TB where some items were set for auto update and I turned ALL of them off (including Maps). Then today I found it had updated itself back to the current version again.
I've tried everything I know of. I have currently frozen the Market app to see if that will prevent an update. But you know what? I'm sick of this, and I'm trying out Nokia's Here Maps.
Just for update purposes, freezing the Play Market app did not stop a self-update of Maps.
I then googled again, and found a mention of stopping changes to another app by editing the properties of the APK to "read only". I have gone in with Root Explorer and turned off Write Access for the google maps apk. That was one day ago, so I will see how that works. It's apparent that the update must be through the Maps app itself if not some push update from Google.

Need help setting up 2nd profile

I could use some help setting up a secondary user profile for my tablet.
I recently bought the $50 Fire tablet. I immediately used RootJunky's batch files to install the Play Store, remove lock screen ads, disable OTA updates, root, and replace the stock launcher. I then logged into my Amazon account to set up the main user profile. I removed a bunch of Amazon bloat and the tablet is working perfectly as a proper Android tablet.
I ran into trouble, however, when I tried to set up a second user profile for my wife. She logged in using her Amazon credentials and went through the standard set up processes. After finishing all that, the lock screen showed up, she swiped up, and nothing. No launcher or anything. Just the home screen wallpaper.
While logged into her profile, I tried re-running RootJunky's Play Store install batch file. I got errors, though, telling me all of those files were already installed on the device.
Navigating through the settings, I managed to get into the Amazon app store and install OneDrive. From there I was able to install some APKs. I managed to install Nova Launcher so she has a working launcher. I also installed the Play Store. The Play Store, however, wouldn't open. It just flashed a white screen and then shut down. After installing the Google Login Service it now prompts to enter Google credentials to log in. After doing so, however, it says it couldn't connect to Google's servers. I am unable to install either the Google Play Services APK or the Google Services Framework APK. After not being able to install them from OneDrive, I downloaded them to internal storage and they wouldn't install from there, either.
I have confirmed that she has root access. I have Root Browser installed to her profile and can access the entire device storage.
Can anyone help me out? Something tells me there's a simple solution here, since the device is rooted and all of the programs/services necessary for logging into a Google account are already installed on the device. Would locating the necessary files and copying them to system work?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I think you should re-enable temporarily the stock launcher, that might be your problem. Then, you can set up another launcher and re-hide the stock one.

Thanks for the response.
The launcher isn't the problem. I managed to get Nova Launcher installed on the secondary profile, so I do currently have a working launcher.
The problem is that I can't get logged into a Google account, therefore I can't get into the Google Play Store. That's the problem I'm trying to solve. And as I mentioned originally, the Play Store and other Google apps are working just fine on the primary user profile.
If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them. Thanks.
