Google Apps Selection Option missing after flashing ROM AND Google apps file

I am coming over from my Nexus S to the G2X and I wiped everything, formatted the system, flashed the EagleBlood ROM and then flashed the latest Google Apps file.

I usually get the Google apps selection screen after I log in to my Google account that allows me to select the Google apps I want to install but I do not get that option and when the set-up is finished. I am missing all the Google apps that should be installed. What I am doing wrong?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
not sure cause i think it asked me when i first installed the rom.. how did u like ur nexus s vs the g2x? i kinda want a nexus s
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakron1:
The Nexus S is a nice phone but I want 4G and I wanted to try something different. I like the G2X so far, running the CM7 Nightly ROM. Looking for a stable kernel with voodoo color, any ideas?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
idk i like this rom but i got to many issues with the data never showing up. the apn list always disappears and i get sick or rebooting it to try to get my data back. idk why its giving me such a hard time. so for now i just use the rooted ota 2.3.3 rom
[T-Mobile LG G2x] speedbreaker:
does the hdmi mirroring work with this? mines doesn't seem to work at all!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] speedbreaker:
do you know if this works with all roms that have cm7 sprinkled into them?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bmann_420:
HA! Okay, so after talking to 2 people at T-mobile with 'lack of connectivity' is was due to a 2mb data limit. I was unaware of this of course, i got the new 79$ unlimited, and they never told me about any data limitations. I bumped it up to 5mb. So just fyi and letting you know. I'm going to try this again of course and see how it goes =)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ThC23:
So far so good, no major issues that I have ran across!

Only thing is how or where do I access mass storage! Cant seem to find it!

I see storage, but doesn't give me that option.

Thanks for the great rom, like the tweaks!

Battery Charged from 18% to 51% in 15mins, seems abnormally fast. Other than that I'm really liking this rom. Torch doesn't screw up my music and there is no keyboard lag. Ran into a little trouble with data and syncing issues that I fixed by restarting. Haven't had problems since and let's hope it stays that way. I'm using faux's kernel.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
I guess it's because of the battery driver.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mentosone:
Rom works very well

rom works very well i have been using it with no problems.donated a small amount :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ThC23:
Also it only sees external not internal right? Because mine does not see internal!

....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
You can flash thr sd swap mod.

Sent from my Calculator with Android.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] doniqcc:
It sees external as the main also internal under mnt/emmc :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nory82688:
i think this is my new daily driver. the new update is great. its very fast,snappy, and clean. and its 2.3.4 now! so good job devs, keep up the good work.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] blestsol:
Im too scared to try Fauxs again. Last time I used it I got random reboots, freezes all day long during texts or just scrolling and other crap. ...Im good until kinks are worked out.

:(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jaydilla:
Yep, anyone with data issues need to look into this. This was my issue which was resolved by what the poster mentioned as well as removing the data all together and re-adding it.

Peace!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Hmmm its as stable as this in my opinion I just like having my internal memory available
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DROD1482:
hdmi

someone might of asked already but it there a way to get hdmi out put on this rom because i dont see it under settings
[T-Mobile LG G2x] doniqcc:
Internal memory is there under mnt/emmc.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] drice26i:
Hello, I am not new to flashing but I am new to posting. I only read mostly. But this rom I had to speak on. Coming from Ultimate G2x with faux kernel, smoothest rom I have ever flashed, and testing faux 1.2.3 r3 GB with faux kernel, I flashed this rom and I must say it's completely amazing. I flashed the faux 0.2.1 kernel which fixed the LCD backlight dimming on unlock (problem with 0.2.0), and added led notification. After playin with the rom before and after installing faux's kernel, I'm blown away. I would say faux's kernel is the way to go for now!

As far as those who have issues, I don't know what to say. I have no issues what so ever. Love everything about the rom. I am no dev, but maybe my technique to flashing may help. I go directly to the mounts and storage menu and format the cache, data and system. Then I go to the advanced menu and wipe the dalvik cache and battery stats EVERYTIME I flash a rom. Like I said I am no dev, but i have not ran across any of the problems I read about other than the issues stated in the changelog by the devs. One more thing, as the devs state, do let the phone sit for a few minutes to establish a data connection and reboot after google completely restores and syncs your contacts, apps and settings.

Hope this helps.

As of now, this will be my daily until the official release!! :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] spankerer:
How about the camera guys? Does it do 1080p recording yet?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] badbass780:
Tried several different ROMS over the last 4 weeks and this is the only one that hasn't shown a flaw yet. Excellent work, I will be donating, just keep doing what you do!

Chi-town rules.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mac33:
Everything was running fine until I flashed faux's new kernal. It gave me the backlight issue. Going to reflash. Man I wish I could use faux's kernal! Gr8 rom by the way!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
well i believe it works for any rom based off of cm7.. when i saw the video for this they said it wont work with stock only cm7 roms. but i tried it on this one and it worked fine so i dont see why it wouldnt.. they got an app in the market that will test it to see if it will work for whatever rom u have. install this first before buying the app if u were thinking about buying it.. if u dont get an error then i believe u should be good. all u need is root access which i assume u already have..

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
If your TV is 1080 res, it should work fine...if it's only 720 res, it might not work...that's been my experience with cm7 based roms and hdmi.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
it worked on my 1080p tv but my other tv is 1080i and 720p and it wouldnt show a picture at all.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] speedbreaker:
yea its not working on my 720p samsung lcd.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] unique77:
When it says he incorporated the latest cm7 update, does that mean the latest nightly?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] doniqcc:
Latest source.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xkngofqnz:
how do i change the font backkk?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakron1:
I have having trouble setting up this ROM on my G2X. I am currently running CM7 nightly build #121 and it set-up fine with no issues.

1) I booted into clockwork recovery

2) I did a factory reset

3) I wiped the cache

4) I wiped the dalvik cache

5) I flashed the latest version 1.8 ROM

6) I Flashed the latest gapps-gb-20110613 file

7) I reboot

I go through the paces of logging into my Google account but the menu for selecting the Google apps to install does not show up. It logs into my account and says it's finished the set-up.

I never get the Googles apps install menu that I normally get when I set up for the first time?. I have no GMail, Google Maps and the other apps and it finishes set-up?

I have tried it several times with no success, I can do a fresh install with the CM7 Nightly's and the the Google apps menu shows up with no problem. I have rooted several phones including my Nexus S and never had this issue. I am new to the G2X world and any help would be appreciated.

I am currently running the CM7 Nightly build #121 and my rooted G2X with CW recovery version 4.0.1.5.

I love this phone and can figure out why the gapps file would install properly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
ok so i tested the new cm7 build #121.. i kept restarting my device and everytime i did my apns are always there. so thats awesome.. i shut down the phone like 4 times and only 1 time my apns did not show back up.. so im pretty happy with cm7 now that i can use it.. so hopefully we can get this rom updated so i can use it now.. cant wait lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tweeklulz:
Redownload the gapps file, might be corrupt
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chuckhriczko:
I actually have the same issues and even tried multiple downloads. I even sideloaded the market and the vending.apk file was already installed it just wouldn't let me install anything from the market. So this is definitely an issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
i also have the same issue but i have titanium backup so after i do a fresh install the titanium backup restores everything for me. I'll download the latest gapps and give that a try next time.

every once in a while I will also get an error on wifi that says "invalid sim". Anyone else getting this issue or know how to resolve it? (usually after a reboot or 2 it goes away).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] NrikeCalderon:
Have either of you fixed permissions after flashing?

LG G2x EB 2.3.3 v. 1.07

Motorola Defy MIUI 108190
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
i have before..but I did not do it last time I flashed. I'll give it a try now and see what happens. Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rexxxlo:
Strange issues I've noticed...

If I connect to a wifi network I cannot re-connect to a cell network unless I pull the battery. Ive went to the network operators and it will search for the network forever.

Also If I use the torch app that comes with the rom it reboots the phone
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Simer03:
ive been searching and searching and have not found a way to enable my boot animation sound! does anyone know of a way that will make this work?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cat_fud:
This is supposed to work. I haven;'t had a chance to test it yet. Let me know if it works for you.

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/7433-flashable-zip-boot-screen-audio/
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Simer03:
that says only for CM6....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cat_fud:
Page 2 says it works on CM7. Though devices may very. It says something about using the proper libstagefreight. if it doesn't work it looks like something for the devs to check out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jumannie:
I just installed this rom.. I'm loving it!!!! granted i'm new to the android worldso i may not know much.

I can say this easily though... it is far better then the stock froyo
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vmartinez39:
Went back to this ROM just to confirm what I already knew...... Battery life on here is like just very poor. Sad, just sad. And I like this ROM, netflix and such that Stock EB can't do.

But I think I finally figured out why the Email client loops/fails syncing. I think it had to do with my IMAP account. 5 POP accounts and 1 IMAP. Its probably too early, but something I never seen on CM7 based ROM, is the email error message "Failed to connect to Server". It never did that. Before, the email client looked like it was syncing but in reality, it was a false endless sync loop.

I deleted the IMAP account and trying again, making sure this was the reason I went insane, as to why email would stop syncing after 8-10 hours of uptime.

Once thats confirmed yes, I'll finally checked off everything that was wrong with the phone. Everything works and grateful I don't have no crashes since LG tool update.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Simer03:
it is true....battery life on this rom is atrocious! even with data turned off, percentages go down as if data was on!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] builtboosted:
Turn off 4g. Problem solved
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deadstyle:
So far paired with trinity kernel I get really good. Only time it just drains fast is heavy usage when on 4g. Compared to the other roms I have tried this has been the best rom for battery life.

Be sure to wipe battery data after first full charge.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Simer03:
Turning off 4G just gives u crappy Edge.....not to mention, having data completely off is supposed to be better than any data, yet battery drain is the same
[T-Mobile LG G2x] doniqcc:
What battery drain ?

Wipe battery stats if you experiencing weird battery drain.

This is the only page that I've seen ppl complaining about battery drain for this rom.

Look at the previous posts by other members what they're saying about battery life.

Before blaming it on the rom please read before it helps a lot and follow instructions when installing.

I wanna see who else is having problems with battery drain in the latest version.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
my battery life is fine.. i love this rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Simer03:
yeah cuz of all the things we've learned in XDA, its that EVERY rom will work the same on EVERY phone......right....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dagaetch:
You're right, phones are different. Of course, if the vast majority of other people using this rom aren't complaining about battery life, odds are that the problem is with your phone, not the rom. So wipe the battery stats and see if that fixes your problem before *****ing to the developer who spends his free time creating awesome stuff for us to play with just because he can.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
i'm getting two days of battery life on this rom so i don't know what your problem is with your phone. so obviously you will have to look and see if you have things running in the background. ideally all phones SHOULD be equal. maybe you have your GPS running? Maybe you have downloaded apps that have a partial wake lock. Maybe your battery is just bad? the rom is not the problem since so many people are getting good battery life so it must be your phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vmartinez39:
No disrespect, the EB ROMS are the most stable ROMS on my phone. I've had ZERO crashes or issues. Maybe its my software.

My experience is based on my usage. I'll do a more thorough test and wipe battery stats. I consider this complain minor though because I accept the fact that Android=:( for battery life. And thats with any device. Its not a Blackberry or a Nokia phone which last days without charge. Unless we see 4500mha batteries ship with android phones battery life will always be a problem. Forget HTC they are the worst when putting weak batteries on smartphones.

doniqcc and all developers, if not for you guys this phone would be dead to everyone.

Oh and I'm on EB 1.07 kinda staying on this version for the time being. Had weird behavior happen on 1.08 but it was really the software I loaded to it. Still, I'd rather stay on EB 1.07 only because of how stable it's been. No hardware failures!!!! That trumps battery life.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Simer03:
I'm not a rookie, I know what to do to ensure the best battery life....I'm not *****ing either, I love the rom, I love the tweaked launcher, but battery life for me was weird...maybe u guys could tell us what you have or don't have that helped/killed battery life....like for example, do u have the g2x led notification app from the market? I have that, its not running, but maybe that is the culprit? I don't even have my sync on either....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
i do not have the notification app. take a look at spare parts and take a look at the battery history there. check out the other usage and also partial wake usage. sometimes badly designed programs leave the partial wake open and that can drain battery fairly fast.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Simer03:
well i went back to this rom......its too stable to go away from!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] srt4mn:
I am having problems hooking up my phone to my computer via usb. It's not showing the sd card or internal memory. I have installed the LG drivers already and also the drivers needed to flash the recovery onto the phone, but still not working. Anyone know of a fix?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
i've had the same problem. i think it has to do with the LG driver. I have windows 7 64 bit and it does not work on that computer. however, I can do the same thing on a windows XP machine and it works just fine. very strange. if anyone finds a solution for windows 7 64 bit just let me know. thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Simer03:
mine shows up both internal and external, which i find really annoying....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ikhtiaralam:
Thanks! Perfect ROM. Battery life is amazing!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BIGWORM:
Is there a flashable zip for the camera used in 1.7? I liked the panoramic mode.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] the00guy:
Any fix for SMS Delivery Reports? This is critical to me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] builtboosted:
im having issues with 4g running the battery down in 6hrs. with it off and 2g only im getting 19+hrs. anyone have a solution or some insight to a fix for this?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PseudoChris:
Fantastic work. Keep the goods coming! :)

I have this running w/ faux123's latest OC/UV kernel @1.1-1.2GHz in regular use and I've had only a couple problems with black screen sticks or strange FC's.

Thanks again!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakron1:
Well I finally took the plunge and flashed you ROM with the Trinity E18 kernel and it's very fast and stable, great work.

I still had the issue of the gapps file not loading the screen that lets me select what apps I want installed? I had to manually download them all from the market, took some time but I am up and running. Waiting patiently for the next release.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] supersilko:
Turn on or off debugging than it should work took me awhile to learn that
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bakron1:
When do you think they will have the issue with the date and time syncing with the network fixed?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] the00guy:
Idk, but I am also hoping they fix the voicemail number pulling issue. Can't get visual voicemail to sync on my phone. Tried full wipe and reflashing clean multiple times, it never pulls my voicemail number and even if I enter it manually, still doesn't sync the visual voicemail. Maybe it's a compatibility issue with the app, who knows...meep.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dEris:
I have not read this entire thread but I'm running the latest release and I'm wondering why I have an H instead of a 4G icon. I did a speed test, it seems like it's still running 4G speeds. How do I get the 4G icon back?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fortunejr:
Not sure how to get your 4g icon back but the reason why you see H is because it stands for HSPA+ network which is TMobile's "4g". E stands for Edge, 2g.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dEris:
Oh, thanks. Did not know what the H was.

So what will 3G show as?

( T-Mobile G2x - CM7 )
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rexxxlo:
Got.a few more odd issues hope.someone can answer at least one of them

If I try sending a pic message I get a notification on the screen that says currently unable to download. Please try again later

It wont disappear unless I pull the battery?

It shows up in portrait and landscape mode and every app I open it shows there too

Here is a pic

Also if I try opening a link in any app that has any form of hyperlink in it like Facebook, email or even a browser it I get a notification that's says there is no network connection and the page cannot be opened this happens on wifi or cellular networks and even if I have a great signal

Oddly I can get both to happen together I attached another pic of that with both notifications

sorry typing is very hard from a phone that has half of the keyboard covered with a notification that wont go away....

had to edit it to make it readable haha
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BIGWORM:
I'm currently running this ROM, and I must say it's pretty damn stable. The only hiccup I had with it was after a phone call, the phone seemingly froze, would not respond to any button presses (black screen), and I had to pull the battery. That only happened one time, and I've no problems since. I WAS running on the E18 Kernel stock, but I decided to run the DS kernel. I'm not too familiar with kernels for this phone, as I just got it Wednesday, but underclocking with this ROM and that DS kernel is pretty good battery life. Keep it up.

Actually, I have discovered a bug: If you run torch, and let the screen time out, the LED will power off shortly after, and the phone will reboot. I don't know if that's well-known...again, new to this phone. Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hitman818:
Whenever I tries the restore apps from titanium it would just force close. I then tried it on cm7 and it worked. Does anyone else have this problem?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chuckhriczko:
The led torch shutoff bug is an issue with the phone itself. it will happen regardless of whether you have this rom, stock, etc.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BIGWORM:
Oh that sucks. Would a different app maybe fix the problem?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deadstyle:
Had tried one other app and did the same as torch.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chuckhriczko:
Yeah all apps do this. I would assume it's the way the apps implement this functionality. You have to remember the led was never made to function in such a manner so it's only natural that there could be bugs from phone to phone. I just make sure the phone doesn't shut the screen off while the led is on. Maybe ill make a torch like apparently that keeps the screen from locking if I get enough free time.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] doniqcc:
1.9 version uploading.......
[T-Mobile LG G2x] deeznart:
Sweeeeeetttttt!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
No way! I JUST finished installing CM7, and setting all of my apps up, and then you update this! Guess I gotta wait 'til I get back from school. Love your ROMs. Keep up the good work.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] art0605:
I think you make the best ROMs out there. Incredibly fast and stable. I use yours exclusively. Now if only you updated a little more frequently, I wouldn't be so antsy all the time haha
[T-Mobile LG G2x] doniqcc:
Hehehe lol

You probably heard this 1000 times before but good things come to those who wait

I actually test my roms before i release them.

Link is up for download check op enjoy.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
well i'm having the same problem. i did the following with the new flash

1) cleared cache, delvik, and data/factory reset

2) flashed 1.9

3) flashed gapps (i re-downloaded gapps again just incase my old one was corrupt)

4) fixed permissions

started it up and i still have the same problem. the initial gapps install menu does not show up. Any suggestions?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] yungtexas:
Maybe format system in recovery
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nightf0x:
I installed this theme

(https://market.android.com/details?id=com.upwardspiral.Basic_White)

thinking it would work as this is based on CM. Unfortunately it did not. I got constant launcher force close so I had to to do factory reset. Any ideas why the theme did not work?

Besides that great ROM. Nice and fast.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vmartinez39:
Been meaning to just flash/erase/wipe/start over

And so I will. Trying 1.9 for size. Can't wait and excited :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hmichaelkim:
Weird, are you on 1.9 or 1.8? It worked fine for me on 1.8
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
One thing I would have done before resetting, would be to go into recovery and fix permissions. A lot of times, fc's like you are describing, are from permissions issues.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nightf0x:
1.9 did you reboot after install as that is when I started having fc.

Good point. Should have tried that. I'll try installing it again and see if this fixes it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] doniqcc:
As stated in op new launcher that could be it this one is merged from Google source and my tweaks.

Try adw launcher and see if that works.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TeldenW:
Trying to flash 1.9.. Stuck on the LG bootup screen.

Anyone else?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I really hope it's not an issue, I'm about to flash this right now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TeldenW:
Don't let me talk you out of trying these ROMs, I've used an older version of EaglesBlood - it was AWESOME!

I really wanted to check out 1.9. I could not get it to boot up. I tried everything.

If you can get it to work, let me know. Maybe there is something wrong with my phone.

I can't load any CM7 ROMs either. I'm using Weapon G2X right now. Maybe my phone is jacked.
