Cannot upgrade ROM Manager (clockworkmod) without google market

I cannot upgrade ROM Manager v4.3.2.3 without using google marketplace. Keep in mind I'm trying to upgrade ROM Manager so that I can install the google apps (which include the market). Since I don't have the latest version of clockwork mod (the latest as of today is v4.4.0.6), I get this message when I select "Download ROM":
"You must upgrade your ROM Manager to the latest version!"
Well, I cannot do that, because I don't have the Market.
I've tried so many things, all I want is the market and I'll be done messing with this phone. I've tried installing the latest google apps zip.
And I've tried installing a recovery image from clockworkmod.com's site
When I say "install", what I'm doing is:
put the .zip onto the SD card
boot into recovery
install the .zip
I can boot into clockwork recovery mode perfectly fine though.
I'd be nice if ROM Manager had a selection "update app" or something, then I wouldn't be in this mess. Also, for whatever reason, I installed ROM Manager today, and it did not give me the latest version. I wish I noticed before installing CyanogenMod on it.
Thanks for the help.

Wow, so I have no idea what I did differently, but I just randomly decided to try installing the google apps from clockwork recovery again, and it worked. To my...amazement it worked. I swear I tried that before. Anyway, problem solved
EDIT: I just Captain_Nero's post, that would've also worked. Thanks again!

Glad you have everything sorted out.

I'm having a similar issue. On a clean install when I try to download ROMs through ROM Manager I get the error message "You must upgrade your ROM Manager to the latest version!", and then it force closes. The problem is I need to use ROM Manager to download Google apps in order to access the market to update ROM Manager.
Is there any kind of workaround short of another wipe/download?

Download google apps from your browser (someone posted a helpful link above) then flash in recovery

Unfortunately that link is dead. I'll see what I can find in the meantime.

[Q] CM7 bootloop

I just flashed CM7 on to my OB and am experiencing what I think is a bootloop? The CM7 bootlogo keeps playing over and over again.. what can i do to resolve this?

SelfKang version of CM?
PS: Wrong thread to asking question.

Oops sorry! I thought this was the right thread.
Anyway, I flashed the lastest version of CM7. SelfKang 7 - 2.
Is there a way to boot into recovery while having this problem? Because I read on the CyanogenWiki that the solution is to boot into recovery & reflash. But from what I understand the OB does not have a key combination to boot into recovery. :/

Have you tried to remove batt and retry?

Yea..I removed the battery and tried to boot again but each time, it just gets stuck at the CM7 bootlogo. I thought it was because it takes longer on its initial boot, but after leaving it there for 20 mins, there was no progress.
In addition to that, when I leave the phone off & try to charge my phone, again the CM7 bootlogo is shown.
Should I just reflash stock LG firmware and try again? I really want to do that only as a last resort. :/

Reflash stock firmware using THIS method.

Well, I managed to get it working after reflashing stock firmware and flashing CM7 again
But it seems that I am unable to install certain apps such as Google maps, Gmail, Google+ etc. I was able to install them before, is there a reason they cannot be installed?
When I say unable to install, I mean that when I search for the app on the market, all results are displayed except the particular app that I want to install. :/

After installing CM7 ROM you SHOULD install google apps zip in CWM, not download them from market...

Yes I did, but all I got from flashing that zip was the Google Market? Or did I do it wrongly? Did anyone here installed the Google Apps and got google +, google maps etc?

Oops! Sorry! Regarding the issue of not being able to install apps like Maps and g+..I managed to find them afterall.
Turns out it just didn't appear at the top of the search results like it used to.
Thanks to everyone who offered your help! ^^

Play Store "No connection error" - G-Mail related?

Hey guys,
I've got the dreaded "No Connection" error on my Nook HD+. I've tried many things to fix it. I even deleted and reinstalled the store. I tried deleting and reinstalling G-Mail. No luck. One thing I've noticed is that I can't even get G-mail to open. It opens for a couple of seconds and then closes and says "GMail has unfortunately closed".
I'm running CWM 10.2-20131102
Any ideas?

Are you sure you used the right GApps package?
Btw you should really update to the stable version of CM10.2, it works much better for me at least

I tried downloading gapps from another thread I saw and the zip file won't open, (gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip).
You know I tried updating to 10.2.1 via the update and it doesn't work. It downloaded it but when I try to update, Recovery says that it failed to open /sdcard/0/cmupdater/cm-10.2.1-ovation.zip (No such file or directory). The only option it gives me is to install untrusted zip. That sounds scary to me.

Did you try to download the GApps again? Sometimes downloaded files can be corrupted.
About the Update:
Try to flash it manually then, but do a factory reset first..
You think you already have the right recovery as you are able to boot the CM10.2 Snapshot, so here is the links you need, so that you don't have to search for them again:
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=ovation

Thanks for the help. I've downloaded the gapps and CM zips but I don't know what to do with them. I see them in Root Explorer but I don't know which files to run to use them.
EDIT: I think I've got it figured out. I moved the CM and Gapps zips to my SD card and then flashed them from Recovery. I'll see if that works. Unfortunately I don't have Wi-Fi here at work to check. Looks like I at least have the CM working. I have a different boot screen now, (bummer I liked the old one ). I verified that I'm running 10.2.1-ovation but every time I boot up it tells me that Google Play has stopped working.

I'd say you check again if you downloaded the right GApps version this time, but I guess you did that already...Do the other GApps work? Like Gmail, Maps, etc...
If they do, try to clear its cache. Else you could also get an apk for the play store and install it manually, maybe that will work

Phone won't boot after CWM 11 flash - sdcard mount issues, etc

I updated stock rom by flashing to CWM 11. It worked out, but there were internet problems. So I then tried to flash 10.2 in recovery but when choosing a zip file I get "can't mound /sdcard/". So I that point I wiped data and then when phone boots it gave me message about encryption unsuccessful and that it needed to do factory reset. But factory reset does not work because there is an issue I think with the file system or formatting and it refers to errors with android_secure. I have tried everything. I have tried various recovery apps. I have tried flashing other roms with sideload but that does not work (even though adb makes a connection to the phone - I get some error about protocol fault). Any ideas how to unbrick this thing?
Forgot to mention that after the encryption unsuccessful nonsense, I flashed stock kernel. So maybe that is the issue? I have a JB kernel that I flashed after the 11 rom flash? Also, Kies will not connect to the phone. Odin connects fine. At this point I just want to flash stock rom but all the sites with downloads limit to very slow download and because my internet connection drops now and then those downloads fail. What a mess I got myself in...
thanks,
Brian

So I flashed a stock rom and it booted up, but now it shows baseband:xxxx and there is no mobile internet. Internet worked fine when I first went from stock rom to cyanogen 11 and I know I am in a location where there is internet. I have tried flashing various modem files for my phone and have read numerous posts about this issue, but nothing is working. Does anyone have other ideas? What I am expecting to see is baseband xxamg4.
Kind Regards,
Brian

Application Not Installed Error

I recently tried out vanir AOSP rom. I was previously on harshjelly jellybean rom with cocore kernel. I found that kitkat was not anywhere as good as jellybean for our device, so i reverted back to an a recovery of my old rom. I am unable to update most apps from playstore(application not installed due to unknown error - 24)
I tried to flash stock with odin and factory reset but when i try to install apk files that were installed previously on old rom, it says "application not installed". I have enough space. I tried play store and I get this error with those apps. (application not installed due to unknown error - 24)
New apps install fine. I tried deleting everything in data with root browser, everything in .android-secure, everything in android folder.
I tried facotry reset with odin many times. No use.
Someone please help me I cant install the apps i regularly use on my phone. Also, I noticed that restoring with twrp in cocore does not work well. Most apps are missing while restoring
