Hi guys,
I know there are already threads about this but I like how this guy explains everything.
You can watch the guide here -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdZHOfOH7FE
P.S.
I haven't tried it because I don't have the phone but I might very well buy one seeing that most problems can be solved.

Hey guys,
I got my pal the Motorola Droid or Milestone as they call it here, I booted up the device checked for updates and it was the latest one (2.1 update1) , I couldn't find the Android Market app, so the phone is really sad without the market place, How can I bring it back..any help will be appreciated
Cheers
same question for me... Mine is from china and comes with a pathetic motorola app store. I dont really want to ROM mine as I like the pinyin/chinese typing option for practicing my chinese. But do like to have google maps, navigator, and the market...
Market Missing after Factory Reset
Have the same problem. The market application is missing after factory reset. The droid is nothing without market app
I'm not sure if you guys have many options without rom flashing your devices.
Hey all,
Two day old NC owner, rooted with froyo, and everything's great.
I have a stupid question though.
Why can't I find facebook in the Android Marketplace?
Is there somewhere else/somehow else I should get it?
Thanks,
you can find the answer in many places on this board and @ nookDevs.
There may be a simpler way than using ADB though.
Try using market enabler after doing the clear market cache and google services framework cache dance.
Don't remember exact steps off the top of my head so you'll have to search, but do the "dance" mentioned above, then reboot, then first thing use ME and then when you open market you have a much better chance of finding what you are looking for.
Worked for me!
user brianf21 has an app in the dev section that can clear the market and dalvik cache too. Not sure if it does the google services framework or not.
I had the same problem when I installed HC. Then I did a search for the word "widget", scrolling down the list you might see "Facebook for android". If you do, walla you found facebook
Good luck.
Recently I acquired a new G1 Dev phone and I just got done applying CM 6.1. So far I'm very pleased with the overall result. One thing that doesn't seem to work (or I just don't do something right) is "Market" (now Google Play). If I click on the "Market" icon the web browser opens and I see the Google Play Terms of Service. One would think that there would be a "agree" button but I can't seem to find it. I would be thankful for any tips, hints, ideas.
Please don't post questions in the general section.

1 - Try to install apk of Google Play 3.10.10 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2001595) or
2 - Rotate Screen
Hi guys - I'm having a similar problem with my G1. Recently I've reflashed from Donut by Laszlo to CM5.0.8 and everything was fine. Yesterday I reflashed again, this time going for the 2708+ port - basically CM5.0.8 with ramhack. I flashed with Gapps that didn't include google maps as it was said it would be a bit more stable. Plus I don't really need them so I was glad to have saved some space. What I didn't know was, it didn't contain the Market app either. Now I'm trying to get the market installed but can't seem to succeed. I found an apk that I installed and it worked for a bit, but when started downloading it forceclosed. So I tried an edited google play app, that was supposed to work on the Eclair versions of android and it failed, so I tried to install the previous one again, but that one forcecloses now instantly.
So does anyone know of a Market app for CM5 that is stable, or do I need to reflash Gapps? I would prefer simply a market app, if there is a stable one anywhere...
Never mind actually. Got it to work. I used the wrong Gapps before - that's why the Market didn't work and forceclosed. Just downloaded different Gapps, removed unwanted apks, flashed and that's it. All is fine...
I just installed Cyanogen 10.1 but the nook app from GooglePlay says it's not compatible with my device... And now when i go back to the play store it wont even show up when i search for it. I see there were some others with the same issue a while back but no one replied with a fix.
Does anyone have some ideas?? wife won't be too thrilled if she can't get her precious smut books.
Thanks
Happy wife = Happy life
screw it... I found a .apk for the current version. installed. works.
Found the file at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1545664
Every other app that i find for this device works just fine so i'm not going to put too much fuss into finding out why it wouldn't install from the google play market.
Although if anyone has had this happen and found out the cause i'd be interested to see what it was for future reference.
Thanks
Hey guys,
Is there any known effective workaround for the battery drain issue on 4.4 with google play services?
I have installed the newly released Google play services 5.0 but this is still an issue and causes the phone to get VERY hot during charging

Did you clear cache after installing new Google play services? If you didn't, clear cache and reboot your phone.

Cleared cache and so far seems to be working with v5.0! Thank you!
This is actually something I was trying to find a work around today.
Mind linking me the Play Services 5.0 you're using? I'd really like to try this.

Here you go
if that doesnt work I believe you will have to be rooted, use exposed and wakelock terminator.

Thanks for that. Gave it a go, got a result similar to the thread maker's. Was a dream come true, really.
Then it came back again. Didn't do anything different, just eventually came back into play on next reboot.
Uninstalled updates from Play Services entirely and rebooted, got the same effect. I don't think it's 5.0 fixing it, just the other play(s) causing it. Still running as 'uninstall updates' version (whatever it is-- lemme check... 4.0.33) and I've not had an issue with it coming back on. If it doesn't last then I have no clue how to fix this.
Sorry to be a pest and bump / double post.
But I havn't had it come back since I did an 'Uninstall Updates' from Settings > Apps > All
I don't know why this would be so darned weird... But for anyone who hasn't tried it... I guess, sadly try it - and the link that Androidtweaker gave.
When I installed the Play Store that Androidtweaker linked, I did nothing but play games for like 2 hours on my phone - No issues. Kept playing, 4 hours later popped back up. I play Puzzles & Dragon's and link it to my Google+, so I thought they might have triggered all the play services since it is Google Games.
However I uninstalled updates and now it's the 1st of July where I am (3 days later), with Uninstall Updates and playing P&D with G+, I don't have any Play Service Issues.
Sorry I couldn't be of help to anyone who comes to this thread via google searching. Perhaps installing the latest Play Store then deleting cache/dalvik helped cut out some issue hidden within somewhere?...
In settings/location, set to device only. Its google location reporting causing the issue. Setting it to device only utilises just GPS for location.
