How-To #17: Installing Android Market / Google Map Alternatives

Now that installing custom roms becomes easy, you start to figure out that most roms do not have the original android Market application, or any other original google application for that matter. The reason for this is that most user created roms cannot legally distribute any google apps. The solutions for this problem is simple:

1) Find google apks illegally online

OR
2) Extract the apps from your original stocked rom(official legal method).

OR
3) Recommend: Install free developer created apps.
Free: AppBrain = Android Google Market
Free: MapQuest = Google Maps with navigation
