[Q] Post rom-flash questions. - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, so I just installed the CyanoGen 6.0 which is awesome btw.
But here is my question.. how do I get the android store app back on my phone, so i can then install all the other apps I want/need?

If you go back and fully read the thread in which you got the Rom from you will probably see a "gapps" or google apps download. Flash that, and you shall have all you need.
Crazymike

thank you. somehow I missed the fact that I could install the google apps that are useful right on the new one. I appreciate your help

you need to make sure you follow the install instructions to a 'T'
the G_Apps are a separate file right now with that rom and are listed in Cannon202's post of CE_v2.2.1
you flash the rom then flash the google apps file

[SOLVED] No Google play in Slimkat 4.4.2 build 3.0 stable

I cannot post in the developer forum yet, so I ask here instead:
I have done the installation as usual (full wipe, and also installed slim gapps, the latest release).
For some reason I don't have a Google play in the latest Slimkat.
I cannot setup google account, and Gmail and other google apps refuse to start.
Something strange during first start-up: There was no guide to configure the phone as it normally is. It just went straight to home screen.
I have done full wipe again, and reinstalled everything, but the same issue. No google play.
This is not my first custom rom, I have had previous slim versions installed, and before that a lot of other custom roms, so I think I know how to install everything. Before this version I had the previous beta of slimkat installed.
Any suggestions?
device not supported...
I tried to open some other google apps, as well as the browser. Either they close directly, or show a message that my device is not supported by google play services.
Back to froyo, and now it works
Returned back to gingerbread and flashed slimkat again, coming from CM10, etc... yeah you know the deal...
Now it seems to work fine with google play

Glad you got the playstore working again . When I have had those kinds of problems sometimes reloading the most current versioin of Google Apps will help too.

[Q] Predictive Dialer not working

Hi everybody,
This is my 1st thread. After try to find a solution from this forum, I decide to post my question here. Currently using Xperia V 4.3 .210 custom ROM from Steve Boss. My predictive dialer not working for a 2nd time after flash this ROM. At 1st, I believe I made a mistake to uninstall a few apk files in system app folder. I can't remember what apk file did I delete. Then, I decide to re-flash my ROM and the predictive dialer working again. I start uninstalling unwanted apps again but this time I'm doing it very carefully. Every apps deleted, I'll check this feature whether it affected or not. After finish uninstalling all unwanted app from my phone, I test again if predictive dialer stop working or not. Everything is okay.
But after a few days later, today I notice this feature not working again. Hopefully somebody can assist me how to make it working again without flash a ROM. Thank you.

1. Re-install sonyericsson.android.smartsearch.apk or Smartsearch.apk from a back-up.
or
2. Use EXDialer from the Play Store. It doesn't need Smart Search (at least not until 4.2, I can't say for 4.3 but I don't know why it wouldn't be the same).

Thank you so much bro. Yes I uninstalled the smartsearch apk without knowing it also relate to contact search. I always thought it is only for google internet searching. Just now, I opt to try Exdialer. After a few second, I can notice this app much faster than stock app. Stock app will take maybe 1 second to open. Thank so much for your help.

First of all, wrong section mate. Always post such question in the Galaxy Ace S5830 Q/A section. As for the TimeScape UI problem, did you follow the steps to be done after the installation? You can find the necessary details here. Also make sure to sign into your Google account. Google Play usually comes up right after you do that. Do post the result. Hope I Helped
P.S. Reported to FM to move to right section.
thanks for correction, but....
thanks for your correction...i'll post it there...
but the matter is when first time i finished the installation, reboot my phone, and enter the main screen...there is no login screen to login our Goggle account...
any suggestion?

Try going to Settings>Accounts & Sync> Add Account. See if it works. Do post the result. Hope I Helped
i've try adding account using that way..but there is no google connection...
it's just a kind of any regular email...and after logged in my phone still can't access the Google Play even i have installed another googlePlay.apk
Did you flash Gapps package? Because Gapps aren't installed in this rom.. You have to flash the Gapps package provided in the download section by the developer..
After that replace the old Playstore with the latest version or let it update itself. You will be able to add Google account after that..

amazon appstore compatible device issue

Hello,
I have a Fire 5.1.1 rooted and SlimLP installed. When I look at the Amazon appstore, there are certain apps (mostly marked "Kindle Tablet Edition") that I cannot install. On Amazon it says my device is incompatible. I know I can get these apps in the Google Play store. I am wondering if there is anything I can change on my tablet that would tell Amazon that it's okay to install those apps.
Thanks
Other than changing the os back to Fire OS no.
Thanks for the response.
I would recommend just installing the Google Play Store as it has all the apps up to date. PM me if you need help doing this.

As they've got the Slim LP rom on chances are they've flashed gapps afterwards, it's in the installation post for the rom after all. And they even say "I know I can get these apps in the Google Play store." in the OP
