[Twitch043]

Did you flash the most recent gapps? The most recent is from 8/28 I believe

I downloaded them through ROM manager, but the filename has "20110307" in it so it doesn't look like it.

I'm pretty sure those are the old ones. You can look in the cm7 nightly discussion thread on the first post for a link to the newest gapps.

Thanks for this, but it didn't fix anything. Gmail is still missing and the market force closes now upon running, saying that android.process.media has stopped working. It also randomly tells me this when I'm not trying to open the market.

EDIT: actually, Market up and disappeared after awhile. It's just not there.

Did you do a complete wipe before flashing? It is all together possible the downloads you got were bad. I hatew to say it but maybe a fresh wipe and redownload of the rom and gapps might do it for you. What recovery are you using?

Since the instructions in the CM7 topic said to, I downloaded ROM manager, flashed Clockwork recovery, and did it that way. And yes, I checked wipe data/cache when I told it to install CM7.

Try going into recovery and wiping cache and dalvik cache 3 times each and see if that helps.

Out of curiosity, what immediate effect will that have on my phone's functioning? As a user.

I would just download either the latest nightly or my latest build and flash that. Its probably more stable then release build of CM7. Also has more fixes and more features.

Alright, I'll try one of those probably tonight after work and get back to you.

Alright, I flashed the latest nightly build and it works like a dream, no problems at all. Ironic the other one is labelled stable. Thanks!

But wait... Suddenly, my market app has disappeared. This is ridiculous.

So anybody know why the market app keeps disappearing? I can restore it with Titanium Backup but it just disappears again after a day or so.
