easy market install on Froyo Firmwares: the apk way!

[m4rk3t]

The goal is to make it easy to install market on an Archos device: please find below a link to an apk that does it for froyo.
http://rapidshare.com/files/434229115/gApps4Archos2.apk
Note that the former eclair apk will not work.
All you need to do is to:
- put gApps4Archos2.apk file on your Archos disk
- install it by selecting this file using the device file manager
- run the installed package and follow the installation steps

It has been tested on an Archos32it. Please report any issue on other models.

Enjoy!

I love how a mystery person not affiliated at all with archos magically turns up with an apk that works...

Yes, market works on A101 8GB with this apk, so does the google map.

Thanks for sharing this apk.

Many thanks for the .apk! Although is anyone else experiencing a graphical artifact at the top of the Market application?

This is on a Archos 70 BTW.

Screenshot attached.

are there artifacts in other apps? (calendar?)

[skimminstones]

you guys that have installed the market now, can any of you install the flash player direct from there?

Luckily no artifacts in the calendar like in 2.1

Although now I just noticed YouTube doesn't work for me...and I am not allowed to manually update it via the Market
