Pretty new to this stuff, decided to give this a try...think I almost got it. Used Wug's kit and installed a BB ROM a while back, without issue...tried to do the same with the latest CM 10 Euroskank and I think I'm missing something. Installed the one dated for today, I guess that would be 1013...can't seem to get any of my Google stuff to sync. Gmail and Play open for a brief moment then close. In fact I can't seem to even add the account to the phone. Is this where gapps come into play? I remember reading BB had them already included, I guess I assumed the same was the case here. All the Google apps are present, I just can't open anything that requires account login, nor can I restore my Google contacts.
Everything else seems to work fine and very smooth.
Also, the wifi and mobile network icons in the status bar never turn blue...they're stuck on grey for some reason. Not sure if this is a normal CM10 issue or what. My connection is fine and I can still browse the web over both wifi and 4G.
Lot of newb questions here, just trying to stumble through the process without bricking my phone! Any help, or direction appreciated!
