Where do I find the android market apk that will load on the Gtab

Sorry I am new to this. I am trying to load android market to my g tablet. I have gotten the instructions from another thread but it says to make sure I have the market working with my Google ID. Since I do not have an android phone and have never been to the android site I am not sure if my Google ID will work. I have tried downloading the android market apk from xda but if just flashes on the screen when I press it. Can someone steer me straight.

Which apk did you get? You're going to need two, GoogleFrameworkServices.apk and Vending.apk. Also, I don't think you can just click on them, but need to move/copy them to /system/app.

Thanks jimcpl
As you can guess I am still lost. I did not know I needed two apk's. That explains why the instructions for adding the market app says to turn Googleframeworkservices's off. I don't have it.
I have Googled Googleframeworkservices.apk and got a couple of listings for forms that discussed it but none of them had a download of it.
The Android Market apk I got was from this page in the xda forms

Can you or anyone direct me to the apk I need.

The #2 post in the "Stock G-tablet MOD" thread in General has info on that.

[Q] Google Earth "The requested item could not be found" in market

Hey all - sorry if this has been answered elsewhere. I did a fair amount of research and tried a number of things before posting.
For some reason, I'm unable to update Google Earth on my cappy. App Brain shows there's an update available, but when I attempt to open the market link from App Brain, I get "The requested item could not be found". When I attempt to search for Google Earth in the market itself, I cannot find it.
I'm running stock JH7, rooted - so far as I can tell, there's nothing wrong with my build.prop.... any ideas on what might be going on, and how to fix it w/o having to wipe the device?
The only other thing I can think of that might have played a role is the fact that I flashed a Cog. ROM on my device, but ended up going back to stock (first with an Odin restore, then restoring a Clockwork backup I had made of my device before flashing).
Any ideas would be awesome.

Try searching for earth

Thanks for the response - but it's still not showing up.
Other Google products do show up, however. If I go to the market page for one (say Reader) and tap "View more applications" it'll bring up all the apps by Google Inc, but no Earth.
I'm just kinda confused about this.

That is wierd. Sorry I can't help more.

No worries, I appreciate the thought, nevertheless.
I may try flashing back to bone-stock to see if that'll clear things up if there aren't any other suggestions in the next few days.

Any other experts have any ideas on this? I'm trying to go from version 1.2 to 1.2.1 (the current version), if that makes any difference.

Do you happen to have the sgs tools app? If so run the market fix in it and try that. If not you have to get it on xda as the developer is no longer supporting it.

I had the same problem and I searched Google for google_earth.apk
and found a link in :
Google Earth Missing From Market After 2.1 Update - Android Market ...
It worked for me, downloaded the apk and sideloaded.
I cannot post the link itself because I am under 8 posts.

It was the same way for me when I flashed back to stock. I couldn't find google earth in market, so I went back to cog. 2.3b8. I can't believe a core app is incompatible with 2.1.

Thought I'd update this tread, should anyone else run into the issue.
While I haven't solved the issues, I've at least narrowed down the source of the issue.
After checking another Captivate (completely 100% stock) and finding the same problem, but being able to pull down an updated version of Earth on a fresh JF6 stock ROM flash, I believe the issue's mostly likely due to the market update which was rolled out a while ago (though it's also possible that it's tied to JH7).

Angry Birds 1.5.1.1

Anyone else notice that the newest angry birds (1.5.1.1) isn't showing up in the market? I'm running 1.1 (rooted of course), it doesn't show up for my HTC Hero either so I can snag the apk. Does anyone know how to fix this or can anyone snag the apk for me?

Search reveals this.

if you restore the 2 apps then open setting, applications, manage applications, all. clear market cache and force close market. Clear data for googleframework and force stop. Reboot. All should be well"

[Q] Has anyone gotten the Sports Illustrated app (tablet edition) ?

I am trying to install it via the Market online and the G-tablet is not listed as being compatible with it.

Dled it last night love it runs like a charm on vegan rom

I don't see the tablet edition available...All i get is the phone version in market...

I have searched google for an apk file and no one has one. The tablet version isnt in the android market even after being fixed and the online android market doesnt support vegan so i conclude we cant get it yet

I just grabbed it from the market, and it worked fine. I did get a message that it was for the galaxy tab.
I am running VEGAn 5.1.1.

My market will only see the phone edition of the app.
Can anyone pull the tablet edition apk and post it for download?

Same here.
APK would be greatly appreciated. Really looking forward to seeing some tablet optimized apps on the gTab

I just found it in the market. I am using vegan-tab. In settings, applications...clear cache AND data for Market, then force stop. Then clear data and force stop Google Services Framework. Reboot, accept terms of services in market, and you should find it. I just did this and it worked. The key is to also clear Market data. Hope this helps!

I found it but it says my device is not compatible. I did however able if I want to download the phone version.

Does it display in landscape? Is it free or just one free issue?

It displays in portrait only, but I think the layout is great. The app is free but the subscription is not. I get the issues in the app for free because I have a print subscription, but I believe you can also pay for a digital only subscription (don't know how much that costs).

Same issues here - can't find it in the market and can't find an apk on the web. If anyone could post the apk it would be much appreciated. I have a print subscription that gets recycled every week - the landfills are crying!

Don't really feel like uploading it anywhere, but feel free to pm me your email if anyone wants it. Backed it up with astro.

+1 for not linking the apk. Last thing anyone needs (XDA included) is the ire of sports illustrated. If you take your time you can find it on teh intertubes.

-5 for Mantara for not nowing anyone can have the apk since you have to have a subscription to gain access to the content anyway!

Guerrilla Bob THD not installing?

Tried to download the new HD version of Guerrilla Bob from the market. It downloads but then just disappears and never actually installs.
Has anyone else installed this successfully, or is this just some other Market weirdness?
edit: I had done the market fix a couple of days ago to try and get a few more apps to appear. Now I just noticed that the tablet's not showing up in my account when I hit the market in a browser, even though I bought the app successfully from the market app on the tablet. Looks like I have some more fiddling to do.
edit 2: once I got the market to display the terms and conditions again, it allowed me to download. Wish I could delete a thread, or at least change the title.

same issue at here. I'm using xoom.
