Hi Mason, I moved your query to the Inspire root forum.

Which ROM did you flash? If it was CM7 (or other AOSP ROMs), for legal reasons, some don't the google apps package included as default. If you head here: goo-inside.me - gapps downloads you'll be able to download the google apps zip you can flash in recovery.

It was cyanogenMod 7 i didnt pick the stupid google apps so yeah how do i get this to work. Thx for quick reply

 

[masond2020]

How would i do that? flash it from my compputer to my phone?

 

[El Presidente]

No probs!

Download zip file, put it on the root of your SD Card, reboot into recovery, take a backup, select install zip from SD Card, choose zip, select the gapps zip file, let it do it's thing, then reboot using the option in recovery.

Once you're back into the OS, head to the market, sign in to your gmail account and you should be sorted.

How do i do that cause i have win rar and when i extracted it. sperated and didnt stay zip?

 

[masond2020]

and how do i place it at the root of my sd card

 

[El Presidente]

You don't need to extract it, just leave it in zip format. How did you install CM7 btw, just via ROM Manager?

You can also flash the google apps package using that too (it might be easier for you).

 

[masond2020]

is this going to install a new rom?

 

[El Presidente]

Nope, just the google apps package.

 

[masond2020]

Well which one do I download cause it said it was downloading a new rom when I clicked on it? Ahhh this is frustrating

 

[El Presidente]

What exactly have you tried to do so far? Are you using ROM Manager?

I can understand your frustration, but this is easily fixable, you just need a little patience.

 

[masond2020]

I'm sorry for all this lol I just want to restore my phone back to its original without this rom and everything stock how do I do this??

 

[El Presidente]

No need to apologise

You 100% sure you want to go back to stock? There are alternative ROMs out there that will give you the stock experience, just with all the benefits of root. Want me to have a look for some good ones?

 

[masond2020]

Lol thank you but no I wanna go back to stock how can this be done :?

 

[masond2020]

Like everything back to stock

 

[El Presidente]

You didn't take a back up before you installed CM?

Did you use the hack kit to root etc?

 

[masond2020]

Thea I used hck ace kit

 

[El Presidente]

There should be an option to go back to stock with that? I'll need to take a look at the manual when I get home.
