UPDATED gapps-mdpi [20th oct] - Click Android Development

Google Apps
aka gapps are the android applications written and maintained by Google Inc.
This software for Android is closed-source (so devs don't like include them in their own roms).
What's the latest version?
The latest version is: 20101020 (20th oct).
New update: mdpi-20101225 (GingerBread supported) thanks arco68
Which version of Android OS are 'em written for?
GApps follow the android upgrades, latest versions are written for Android 2.2 (Froyo).
If you run Android 2.1 (Eclair), you should install ERE36B; previous versions (1.5/1.6) can run this: DRC83 (Must be flashed before the ROM). NOT TESTED YET
After installing ERE36B or DRC83 you should be able to update some app (like maps) from the market.
If you have a donut/eclair rooted phone, google could send you a market update (vers. 2007) remove update from "settings" because it's a froyo version and will never work fine.
Why mdpi?
There are 3 kind of density: high (hdpi, like passion), medium (like Dream/Sapphire) and low (our phone).
Sadly doesn't exist a ldpi pack, but mdpi should works fine..
Where is the Android Market? Is it patched?
The Android Market (Vending.apk) is as it comes from BigG, not a patched version.
How to install?
1)Download this package:

good idea m8!!!
very nice one,
now I can look here to see which mdpi gapps are updated...
I also always install and run bruts version since it allows google navigation to work on whole planet...very usefull for us living in countries still not covered, it also enables cashing GoogleMaps tiles on your sd card...
do you maybe know why they removed ChromeToPhone from last few revisions of GAPPS?
keep up the good work!!!

maybe a good idea, cos it is my experience that many people, from this or that reason finds older versions, or particular version of much more use then the current/most updated once (F.E. I remember reading that a number of users found "ChromeToPhone working & useful). Just imagine how much android market would be enhanced if you would be offered a choice of what version of app. you want, not only the newest one...
with hope that this thread could evolve into something...Great?

I flashed these apps and now my market doesn't work anymore.
I can search for apps, view their description, but download/update does not start.
Progressbar appears and after a minute, "download unsuccessful" appears..
I use SPQRom 0.5 and market did work before I flash these gapps.
Any Help?

Still no gapps

New facebook 1.1.3 [updated 19/12/2009]

[Update 19/12/09]
1.1.3 seems to be among us... but where..!?!?!
Hey guys, atrackdog just found a new update : 1.1.3 !
Obviously no results from the market...
Where would this be coming from..? Nexus one..?

Hi guys,
Atrackdog just gave me a new result for facebook apk, named 1.1.1 .. obviously it is not available on the market yet, but I remember the same thing happened with the 1.1.0 version "coming" from the droid...
Does anybody know where's this version coming from?
Maybe from the 2.0.1 update Verizon customers received.
Yes...that could be it...
I just wonder why in the world they don't release these updates in the market..they know they are working even on 1.5 or 1.6 devices...

They might know but that doesn't mean it has been officially tested and supported on 1.5/1.6. Those are two VERY different things.
hmmm wonder if anyone gonna post it
so i found a dump of the update and checked it and yea there is a updated facebook apk in there .. tried installing it on my g1 running cyan latest but no luck .. i cant even push it into the system builds .. gonna mess around with it a little more and see what happens
Yes! Great! Keep us updated then...! Thanks for that ;-)
Alright i have tried and tried but nothing .. here is a link to the dump for those who wanna give it a shot

Sounds like a sentence!
You're the man!
You can't use the normal one because it's ODEX'd.
I ran it through the deodex script -> Here is the new De-Odexed Facebook.apk (v1.1.1) View attachment Facebook.zip
RENAME IT FROM Facebook.zip to Facebook.apk (DON'T EXTRACT IT)
Now when you try to install it'll say it's not for this version of the phone. You're probably going to need to change your build.prop file to show SHOLES just like before the new Google Maps came out...

will that script work with any odex'd apk? For instance, I love the world clock from hero, but cannot stand the lag from the rom. would that work?
I used the terminal to install the app.
install /sdcard/backups/facebook.apk /system/sd/com.facebook.katana.apk
it didn't give me any errors, that should mean it work... right?
Well, I don't notice a difference, is there supposed to be one?

It works on some things... Like the MyFaves didn't work. It seemed to work on the facebook apk. I pushed it also into the /system/app but it won't show in the apps dropdown. I then tried to place on the sdcard and install with App Manager but it says "not for this phone" or something like that. Might have to change the build.prop to show the SHOLES keys instead. But it looks like the APK itself is ok.

Did you get this working on your phone ...... ? ...... also changing the build prop to sholes .. what kind of effect will that have on other apk either currently running or installed later

this one is the new facebook apk 1.1.1 ..pulled from the new droid update verzion just sent out .. however it wont install ..... ( at the moment )
Anybody being able to install this on a magic/dream then..?
I keep getting the same error "cannot install app on this phone" i guess for now I will stick with version 1.1.0....hopefully someone will find a fix for 1.1.1
The g1 has incorrect testkeys for 2.0 apps. You will have to edit the build.trout.prop, as was needed to get navigation to work. I do not know what other problems will come from doing this though. For me, even with replacing to old build.trout.prop, and erasing all traces of maps, I could not download the new version from the market without a wipe.
so i guess for now there is now "easy" install on a Mytouch/Magic for version 1.1.1 as it was for version 1.1.0.........
Is it even worth installing? Other than the extra ".1", does this version have anything we might want over 1.1.0?

does it matter which gapps passion pack version i install with cyanogen?

There are a few different versions rolling around - and I just flashed to the latest stable 5.0.5.3... the one i dloaded was the EPE54B, and I believe my phone version was ERE79.
thx much
Yes it does matter, however, the EPE54B that you downloaded is the correct one to use with the latest Cyanogen 5.0.5.3
could anyone please explain what those gapps_passion packs contain?

It's the google apps. Maps, Gmail, etc. Legally they aren't supposed to be included in third party roms, as they include google apps that are not open source.

Where can I get Google Maps and HTC PDF Viewer?

Hi
I flashed SenseHero 2.2 ROM which is a pretty good Android 2.1 flash. Unfortunately, it comes without Google Maps and native HTC PDF viewer. Where can I get this apps from? I could not get any answer on SenseHero forums.
Thanks.
You can download Maps from the market.
Also running SenseHero
Taken from another ROM,...

Thanks for the apk but I get "Application not installed" error even though I enabled unknown sources in application settings.
It's strange I can find Google Maps on Androlib site but it does not appear in Market search. Does Google restrict application based on client country?

Yes some countries do not get all apps. But there is something called Market Enabler,... Have a look for that.
And try these again for PDFViewer,... Put both in the same folder and then try to install again.
Let me know how it goes.

The new files give me the same error. I also tried to install Market enabler and its apk cannot be installed either. Seems like the project is outdated, the authors say they don't support the latest Market version.
I followed these instruction: http://strazzere.com/blog/?tag=pdfviewerapk which say additional libraries should be installed. After I put the libraries in the right place the application installed OK but it won't start. So I guess I will be needing the correct PDFViewer version (for Android 2.1). If anyone has it, please...

Hic, same the problem, i think new version cannot clear this problem, because it must be use SuperUser Function ( Command CHMOD 777).
Check solution in here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166230&page=9
the new market is very heavy..need more time to load up compare to the previous one..
Since using this new market, I've found there are a lot of apps that are 'incompatible with my phone' even though i installed the same apps before (with a previous ROM) with the old market.
I just tried d/l Flash 10.3 which i previously had and there is no install button shown.
It's the same with many of the apps I've had previously.
I have Task 29'ed my phone many times and done totally fresh installs of MAGLDR, CWR and different roms but this still happens. Any ideas as to why, people??
Many thanks in advance
I have an EU HD2 running TyphooN CM7 v3.5.8 MAGLDR 1.13, CWR 4.0.1.4,
Before that i was mainly running Hyperdroid CM7 v2.1.0 HeadyHoneyBadger
Before installing the new Market, beware that The New Market WILL MAKE some apps unfindable from your phone (or findable but with no install button) AND "INCOMPATIBLE" from android market website.
That's what leaving me away from it.
Also, Market Enabler has no effect on those apps aforementioned.
Big thanks,men!
Thank you guy

No Google Market in iCyanogen Mod 1.1

HI Guys,
i installed this rom: [Aug 04, 12][ICS-ROM] iCyanogen 1.1 [Fast-Stable-Bravia-Xloud][tytung_HWA_r3.3]
I really love this ROM, its fast stable and looks very nice. One Problem i detected unfortunately. There is no Google Market installed, so i am not able to install appz to my HD2 Phone.
So i go on and loaded gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip. I installed this in recovery Mod and after reboot my Android Framework always crashes. I guess its the wrong Gapps Version i installed. Can someone tell me which version to use with iCyanogen 1.1?
thx a lot!
This rom has fm radio?

you can search for modded google market
theres a couple 3.4.7 modded markets that can be used and they wont update
to the newest market
When I updated to version 1.2, Google Play didn't show up either. But I wiped cache and reinstalled and it showed up. I think it's much smoother than 1.1 also.
try to reinstall the rom and do a clean install, ive had the exact same problem with MIUI
