I managed to upgrade to 1.8.7 but now everything gets stuck when I try to downlad google apps. “please wait” and then nothing happens and then it stops and then the updater closes… AGAIN!! With every single update I had similar problems… I should have waited for the weekend to update so I would hav…

Same problem here. This really sucks.

During install of gapps I get the message md5 error and if I ignore this , it can’t find file sdcard/updater/fp_store_0.zip How can I download new file? Just to say, seems this was a problem with WLAN, when I tried again in different WLAN, everything worked fine.

After update to 1.8.7 google apps can't be installed!
