[Q] Problem Installing Gapps

This is my first post here and im pretty new to android
I recently flashed imilka's cyanogenmod 9 v3 and its been working great.
Problem is that I havent been able to get google apps on it.
I went into recovery mode, hit install from zip, used "gapps-ics-20120422-signed" and when it installs the system hangs on unmounting system and the status bar goes of the screen
any help would be much appreciated

Seems like a bad zip download!! Try with a fresh zip!
and toggle signature verification to off from the recovery sub menus.
And that should resolve the issue.
Once gaaps are flashed clear cache and dalvik cache and reboot.
It should say android is upgrading and the it will boot.

I lost my status bar

I Flashed the apocalypse ics layout zip and somehow i lost the status bar and it says to undo the flash zip and flash it again to get the status bar but i still did not get that Help Pls

try this in the proper sequence
first flash the layout patch zip file
reboot
flash the undo zip file
reboot
flash the layout patch
btw did you make sure to mount /system? if not, that could be the problem

I did that and still the same thing but this time I wipe everything and flash the rom again and this time I mount the system and it seems to work fine now even though I reset everything thx for the reply and help btw

Ace bootlooping with all cyanogenmod roms

I own a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 running on android 2.3.6 with build number GINGERBREAD.DDKQ8.I successfully rooted my device(SU icon in the app drawer), flashed cwm5.0.2.6 with no error.
I flashed gingercruzt 2.2, cm 7.1,7.2,9,10 with the following instructions:
1) Wipe data/factory reset
2) Wipe cache partition
3) Under advanced, wipe dalvik cache
4) Flashed the rom.
After rebooting for the first time, this happens(for every rom I tried):
The phone boots into the rom(the capacitive buttons get turned on) -> setup window is reached -> then the phone starts booting again->in further boots it reaches cm logo only and keeps on booting again and again.
I tried wiping data, cache partition, dalvik cache and reboot. None of it worked.
I flashed the roms again .But still stuck at bootloop.
Ps : I randomly took my sim out and did a complete wipe and the roms work fine!!!.
But with sim again, the same problem persists.
PLEASE HELP.THANKS IN ADVANCE.

If you have installed any custon rom previous than i suggest you to first flash fresh ddkq8 stock and than try to install ur custom rom..
It might be happening because of previous rom data !

Problem could be your simcard? How is that even possible. Try flashing with your sim out then insert it after the rom is installed.

It would be a great advisable idea if you flash stock rom via odin every time when you want to switch from one cusom rom to other...

Did you mount the /system? Sometimes you have to do this.
Boot into CWM, mounts and storage > mount /system
Check to see that everything is mounted, sd-ext may or may not work, don't worry about it, it's a big in most CM9 ROMs

[Q] Phone Stuck At Boot Animation Screen

Hello Everybody, My phone is Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 and I have an issue.I am the one who is changing rom constantly.I was using the rom named ''Xperiance-Ace-v4_Sky_Walker_Studios'' for a long time.Lately i loaded another rom, 2 hours after i used, The phone was closed by itself, I tried open phone again but it stayed at boot animation screen.After that, I thought that rom is spoilt, I tried other roms but they stayed at boot animation screen as well.I tried all of roms that i have but result was same.I thought that i should try the rom which i was using before all those problems started.So i flashed Xperiance-Ace-v4_Sky_Walker_Studios Rom.Bizarre but it worked.When it opened i have faced with some pop-up ''android upgrading 0/70'' when it finished (70/70) i was at homescreen and all of my apps that i downloaded when i was using this rom at old days was there.It was so weird, And all aplications started to stop itselves and i even havent touched any of them. Like ''Unfortunately Whatsapp has stopped'' ''Unfortunately contacts has stopped'' ''Unfortunately facebook has stopped'' finally they all stoped working and i tried open applications, No application opened even contacts.
Present state: Only one rom is working, Others staying at boot animation screen and the rom which is working actually not working, Only phone is opening, No application working
What is the Problem? What Should i do? I am waiting your answers, THANKS.

Are you do a full wipe, before flashing another custom rom?

I did Wipe data factory reset, Wipe cache partition, Advanced>Wipe Dalvik cache

I suggest you install the stock rom using odin. It seems you have some corrupted files. Before flashing the stock rom, do Format Data/ Factory Reset, Format Cache Partitions, Mount & Storage> Format /system, Wipe Dalvik Cache and Wipe Battery Stats. Once you have flashed the stock rom, go to recovery mod and do Wipe Data/ Factory Reset and Wipe Cache Partition (otherwise bootloop might occur). After that install root and CWM from the recovery mod. Now you can install any other custom rom without any problem. Do post your results. Hope I Helped

Uninstall kies, and then download driver for galaxy ace.
Maybe, there is something wrong with your recovery, what recovery do you use?

And, try redownload, and flash that rom again. Maybe, it's corrupted.

i unistalled and nothing happened.
And there is no problem about driver because pc is recognizing the phone which means it's was already updated.
ClockworkMod Recovery version is v4.0.0.9
And i flashed many times

Try installing CWM 5 from the recovery mod. CWM 5 is much more stable than CWM 4. Once you have installed CWM 5, do Format Data/ Factory Reset, Format Cache Partitions, Mount & Storage> Format /system, Wipe Dalvik Cache and Wipe Battery Stats. Then try to flash any working rom with it. Here is the link,
CWM 5.0.2.6 fix for Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830
Do post your result. Hope I Helped

[HELP] Stuck in Boot Loop!

Hello All,
I'm trying to flash the 4.1.11 version of the DynamicKat ROM and i'm stuck in a boot loop. I followed the instructions line by line. Any clue what is causing this?
Thanks to all who respond.

Just tried the most latest version (4.2.9), and still the same boot loop. The Note4 logo shows up for 10 seconds, then the phone vibrates twice and repeats.
I followed these instructions:
"Download rom and or theme and place on SDCard. N910W8 USERS MUST HAVE A KERNEL TO FLASH AFTER INSTALLING ROM.
Reboot Device and enter recovery by holding volume up + power + home button
Make a backup of current ROM
Factory Reset from wipe menu is preferred.
Goto advanced wipe menu, WIPE system, cache and dalvik cache!
Do it one more time just in case
Install Rom.zip. DO NOT FLASH ROM AND THEME AT SAME TIME
Reboot device ( allow up to 5 minutes for device to boot to Setup wizard)."

Try flashing a different kernel...

This was posted in the ROM thread. Would flashing an of these two fix my problem? Thanks!
