gapps succesfully installed, can't find google play - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As described here http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki...axy_S/GT-I9001 I installed quickflasher Quickflasher from broodplank (i9001_Quick_Flasher_v1.4.rar) and used this image: recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-ariesve.zip. I Wiped data/factory reset and did Wipe Cache partition. However I did not have the option Advanced > Wipe dalvik cache in CWN recovery.I was able to succesfully install CyanogenMod 9 ALPHA (Build 4) with update-cm-9-20120606-SNAPSHOT-ariesve-alpha4-signed.zip. Then I succesfully installed gapps package gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip with MD5SUM: 7c524e1e078164f681e0aa6753180b2c.
However after reboot I expected to see Google Play on the home screen or between the installed applications. What did I do wrong?

[Q] Insufficient space on device. Can't install any app

Hi fellow blackers,
My optimus black was on Nova Rom 2.2 v8:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161015
And I flashed it to v20n:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441901
I followed the instructions specifically these two before proceeding with the zip install.
1. Wipe Data/Cache (if not wiped, might cause problem)
2. Advanced > Wipe Dalvik Cache (same as data/cache, might cause problem)
After flashing, I can't seem to install any app from Market. It says that I have insufficient space on device.
So did some searching (google and here on XDA):
Here are their suggestions:
1. Install Marketfix - unfortunately, I can't install this because it is already saying I have insufficient space.
2. Clear market cache - after clearing (cache and data), I still says insufficient space
3. Uninstall market update - Going to settings - Application - manage application then selecting Market, I don't see any uninstall button. Just Force close, cancel and clear cache, clear data..
4. Finally I saw knzo's supposedly fix for this: Something to do with file system (nova is on EXT4 while stock is on EXT3)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1212370&highlight=insufficient
I wasn't able to try option 1 because the file was removed on all file sharing sites.
Options 2 and 3 - restore factory settings isn't working. The phone is not doing anything after I click Erase everything. It just hangs
Any other suggestions?
Try reflash ROM with wipe all data and cache in CWM including dalvik cash and formating partitions in "mounts&storage".
Or this!
Try wipe cache and dalvik cache...worked for me
hmm pardon me, but how do I boot into recovery? I tried powering the device on while holding volume down (also tried up and G button) but it didnt reboot into recovery.

Since I can;t install anything (rom manager etc.), I think I needed to do what you advised.
I was able to flash the stock then started up from there

Official MIUI 2.12.29 rebooting into recovery

Hi
I recently downloaded 2.12.29 Official MIUI ROM from http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/2-12-28-29.19143/
However, after flashing, when I reboot the phone, the phone stucks at HTC white screen for a couple of minutes and then reboots into recovery..
The only strange stdout I see during installation is :
>> format system
>> do not formate system
Has anyone come across such issues.. are there any known workarounds..
Help appreciated..
EDIT: I follow the following steps for flashing:
1. Factory reset
2. Wipe cache
3. Wipe dalvik cache
4. format system
5. install ROM
6. wipe cache
7. wipe dalvik cache
8. flash boot.img
>> 6,7 because I read on one of the MIUI forums that if the ROM is flashed on a phone already running an MIUI then these steps are required..
Looks like issue is resolved after following the documentation at: http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/how-to-update-upgrade-miui.15424/

[Q&A] Missing Play Store or others after Flashing ROM and Gapps

Mainly caused by not properly following the steps below
1. Boot into CwM or TWRP recovery.
Wipe cache, dalvik cache and data.
2. Flash rom.zip. and Reboot.
Allow tab up to 20 minutes (usually takes much less time) to reboot to the initial Setup screen.
Complete the initial setup (CM Account setup is optional).
3. Go to Settings, and enable Developer Options, allow installation from Unknown Sources,
enable Android Debugging, enable Advanced Reboot, etc. and then Reboot.
4. install GApps.
My experience is that the most important parts are
A. wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and wipe data, if you are not sure, you can do this every time before flashing any .zip and before booting. It won't hurt to wipe it many times.
B. make sure completed configuring all the setting on step 3, including "allow installation from Unknown Sources", before install GApps.
If you believe any step is not right or not necessary, please let me know.

[Q] Play Store doesn't open(crashes) after upgrading nightly CM 11 build

I upgraded my Samsung Tablet SGH-T849(P1000) from "cm-11-20140207-NIGHTLY-p1.zip" to "cm-11-20140729-NIGHTLY-p1.zip ".
After the upgrade, most of the Google Apps don't work esp Google Play Store.
I previously had "gapps-kk-20140606-signed.zip" installed.
I have tried to wipe data, wipe cache, re-installed Gapps from different versions but doesn't help. I also downgraded back to "cm-11-20140207-NIGHTLY-p1.zip" but no help either.
I also deleted the google account on the tablet but now I cannot add it back.
Am using CWM-Based Recovery v6.0.5.0
Appreciate any pointers.
I took the below steps and it still doesn't help.
boot to clockworkmod recovery
make a backup
format system
wipe cache
wipe dalvik cache
flash rom
flash gapps
reboot
Also noticed that I was out of space and installed minimal apps and am able to open Play Store but it does not connect to the internet - it just goes into a circular loop and finally says connection timeout...
This post helped. http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/...unning-cm11-google-play-services-not-working/ but it doesn't resolve the play store unable to connect to internet
Since you can't really uninstall or reinstall gapps, did you format system, re flash rom, re flash gapps, after you realised the lack of space?

[Q] GApps keeps messing my CM13 ROM

Hello, I just installed CM13 and it works perfectly fine. I did a backup, downloaded GApps from here with the selection of Platform ARM, Android 6.0, and I've tried two different Variants both mini and micro (I don't have enough space for full). Every time I install GApps through TWRP (latest version for titan 2.8.6.0) and once I reboot it keeps spamming "Unforunately Setup Wizard has stopping working" and "Google Play Services has stopped working" and I cannot do anything. I have to boot into recovery and do a restore before GApps. Why is this?
I think you are Installing Gapps After booting in CM13 and then going back to recovery to flash gapps.....
Just flash Gapps along with ROM and do A dalvik and cache wipe after....

Wait, I need to flash Gapps and also my ROM? I've been just installing by clicking "Install" and hitting the zip and then booting. What's the command to flash them in adb?
First Wipe your Dalvik,Cache,system,data....
then goto install and select the ROM zip...
after flashing goto mount and Mount everything....
then goto install again and select The Gapps Zip....
wipe Dalvik and cache and reboot....
