I only just did this earlier, went onto the gapps section on the cyanogen wiki (can't link, new user) on the browser on my moto droid 4 and downloaded the appropriate gapps zip via vends.
Assuming you used Safestrap or something along the lines of that to flash cyanogen you just go back into the safestrap boot menu button screen thing and using the install function, install the gapps zip that should be in the downloads folder of your sdcard and voila!
thanks so much! got it working!

First off: one dumb question: does different rom need an updated Google Apps package?
Here's what happened: I was running CM6.1 with iNexus theme, everything was fine. Then Cm7 RC2 came out, I thought since it's a RC it should be stable enough for everyday use. So I installed CM7 RC2 using clock work recovery. Installation went fine. booted up and running. Then i installed iNexus theme for it. iNexus theme developer clearly stated that I should use RA recovey instead of clockworkmod. so i flashed RA recovery. once again it was just fine: booted up and running. Then i noticed I had no Google Apps working, i figured I forgot to flash Gapps package. I went back to recovery and flashed the zip. I thought since both RA and clockwork are custom recoveries, they should do just about the same as each other => RA 2.2.1 was used to flash Gapps package. Here's what I think that keeps my phone from rebooting all by itself over and over: The Gapps package i used was the old one that i downloaded the same time I downloaded CM6.1. I thought that since they're all Google Apps, they're just getting installed but nothing else. Now my phone just boots up to the Welcome page where it asks if you want to learn how to use your nexus one, the phone will then reboots back into the bootanimation after like 3 seconds showing the welcome page.
I did do a backup using clockworkmod, not RA recovery so I can not restore.
Anybody ever ran into this situation before??? HELP!!!! T_T
CM7 have a different gapps package, the one for CM6 will not work.
Theres a small gapps package that will work with both cwm and amon ra. if not you'll have to make sure the gapps your flashing is compatible with the recovery you're using.
umh...since i can't boot the phone into work. so I'm gonna download another Gapps and put it on my sd card then I'll flash it...maybe that'll work? hopefully!
Can you still boot into recovery?
I would do this
put the following files on your sd card
1-temasek extreme wipe file
2-cm7 ROM your choice of RC2 or nightlies
3-CM7 Gapps
Than flash them in that order
i'll be right back with some links
Get gapps here for CM7 http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/15767-cyanogenmod-7-for-nexus-one-v700-rc2-3072011/
Actually there's a new GB Gapps package, let me find that link
Get temasek's extreme wipe here http://www.mediafire.com/?bxfijcp6f6bf1me
Flashing the Extreme wipe will lessen the headache of "little" things that could go wrong.
Also recommend you sticking with Amon Ra, too much problems with CWM lately
uh.... some of the apps don't work??? is it supposed to be like that? Neither Market or Youtube or GTalk work ^^!
No problems here, all apps working for me. You flashed the right gapps?
When I have been flashing nightly versions of CM7 on my Nook Color, the gapps will install through CWM and it says successful, but never shows up on the app drawer. Any help would be appreciated.
Specs: Nook Color CM7 Nightly 201
Recovery: CWM SD card bootable
Are you reinstalling the gaaps .zip with each update?
Yeah I have been flashing them after each flash. Still doesnt show up.

Gapps won't show up in the app drawer... it runs one time and downloads and installs the apps you pick. I don't recall off the top of my head how to force it to run again after it does it. The information is stored on the data partition so it will not run when flashed with the ROM and there is no reason to flash it with every nightly. The purpose of gapps is only to run the google application selector you got the first time it ran.

You need to flash gapps from the internal CWM, flashing it from a bootable SD CWM doesn't work.
Go into settings and delete the gapps apps, reboot, and reflash.

Ok I'm sorry I figured it out I was being stupid. I kept skipping the sign-in when flashing a new rom. Once signed it it came right up. Turns out the new google apps is a little different install than before. Thanks everybody for your help
Hi, I'm a noob for messing with my phone.
Although I have googled for 7+ hours I have found nothing that helped me, only things that **** me over.
So here is the story:
I decided to install Cyanogenmod 10 on my device. That worked out okay and stuff, but I couldn't install gapps. It said everything was ok but when i started CM10 gapps wasn't there. I tried 10-20 diffrent versions of CM10, all with gapps and diffrent versions of gapps but it didn't work.
Then I installed CWM. I installed CM10 + Gapps with CWM. Then I tried rebooting my device. CWM booted up. CWM boots up everytime I try to boot the device. I googled and found a file, exitrecovery.zip. I installed that via CWM but it didn't work. So, after some more googleing I found a thread on here that said to flash Boot_loader.tar onto my phone via Odin Multi Downloader. Of course, I messed that up. I tried to flash it using "PDA" instead of "BOOT". So that didnt work. I flashed it again using "BOOT" but now it shuts down after the Samsung text on screen.
I am about to attempt to flash the stock OS into my device using the Package option in Odin (Luckily Download mode still works).
Is using Package the correct way to flash the stock OS into my phone?
When I have it working again I want to install CM10 with gapps. Why didn't gapps install?
How can I install gapps correctly?
How do I get out of the CWM boot loop?
Someone please help me because I don't know what to do anymore!
EDIT: Succesfully flashed in stock firmware. But how do I install CM10 and have gapps working?
Thanks in advance,
-Spore
Easyest way to rescue your phone is to flash 3 file ROM with pit and re-partition.
one of many guides is here
Use one of multicsc ROMs (i'd use JVZ)
Then it gets little tricky when getting to CM10
First of all flash semaphore kernel for JVZ (google it)
Then I'd go through CM9 stable to CM10. Flashing guides are easy to find
Edit. Maybe u're using wrong Gapps? for CM10 gaps are from 20120606 (or something like that - newest are for cm10.1)
Got it working!
I figured everything out on my own.
Here's how I did it for anyone with the same problem:
Download the files ill list below.
Put them all on your phone's internal SD
Boot into Recovery Mode
Install CMW6014-TOUCH-CM9recovery.zip
Reboot into Recovery Mode
Clear everything.
Install cm-10-20130130-ivendor-alpha7-ariesve.zip
Install gapps-jb-20121011.zip
Reboot.
And you're done!
Files are listed down below. Since I'm a new user i have to put a dot in the URL.
The only other file you'll need is fs1.d-h.st/download/00026/J34/cm-10-20130130-ivendor-alpha7-ariesve (dot) zip
does this work for cm9?

Hello, thank you for posting this. I noticed that the one file that you said we should download looks like it is for cm10. is that correct? I have cm9.
Also, what do you mean by "clear everything"?
{EDIT} I figured it out. For any other user that has this problem-- you must ensure that you are using the correct version of gapps as others have noted.
In OP's answer to his own question, he used cm10. and the appropriate gapps for jelly bean. That didn't work for me since I was using ICS. Do not use the file he listed for cm10 unless you mean to install that specific version of cm10, which probably won't work for your phone.
Also, google took about 6 hours to recognise my account on the play store. This is apparently a common issue, and I have read multiple threads where people are not seeing their device linked up to their account after upgrading to custom ROMs. The play store app worked on my phone, but not when using an outside device linked to that account (my desktop). I called google support and they said that they had no idea what was wrong, 3 hours later, it just started working.
So be patient if you do not have the option to use the play store from outside sources right away.
So I followed all the steps here:
hxxp://rootzwiki.com/topic/31548-rom-guide-how-to-install-android-on-the-hp-touchpad-the-easy-way/
and installed Evervolv AOSP Android 4.3.1 JB (20131110).
I am having issues with Google Play store, where it will only show like 2 applications/games.
I have checked gmail and it works fine.
I tried changing the dpi, but it resets right back when I reboot.
Any help?

I am having the same issue. I am unable to update gapps or the nightlys via the touchpad from CWM. When I do there and select install from zip file, there are very few files on the sdcard and no zips at all. When I go into the evervolv updater in settings I can see the path where the files are downloaded, but cannot access them for some reason.
I should mention that when I went to the nightly 2014.04.10, it bricked my TP. The touch screen failed to work and when I did a reboot it bricked. I unbricked it via tpdebrick-v004. Since the recovery my gapps have not worked and there are few files on my sdcard, and none that will flash via CWM.
I'm not sure where to go from here aside from doing a full reinstall.
Ideas?
I installed the following ROM,gapps and recovery using the latest TP Toolbox over a stock WebOS install.
cm-11-20140913-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin.zip
gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip
update-TWRP-jcs-dm-tenderloin-20140612b.zip
I want to get to Evervolv installed from here, is there a recommended ROM, gapps, and recovery set that I can use to get to evervolv. I was able to install flintmams 2.8.3 Selinux recovery, but it could not see bunch of directories including ttinstall, so irverted back to the above.
thanks,
pmcall
I could help you if my touchpad was not bricked that is
