Root Erased and deregistered my rooted NC

I recently erased and deregistered my rooted NC. I plan to give it away for x-mas but when I restarted to try and set it up (to make sure it would be easy for the recipient to set-up) I found that it was no longer able to connect to google. This means the market is unavailable and defeats the entire purpose of giving it to them! Help?
 
Yes, wifi isn't a problem, I can browse the internet and everything but for some reason google won't let me sign in. So frustrating!
 
Somehow I've messed it up even more. Now I am getting the "update" attempt but it won't go past this screen. It's telling me it's installing, goes through installation, and then restarts and tries to install again. Thoughts? Did I just brick my NC?
 
I found a solution. Reset to factory using basically the same thing as the link you sent. Worked perfectly! Thanks. ((btw I didn't actually do anything, it just wanted to run an update and couldn't install it for some reason without the device being registered *shrug*))

That's what I suggested here:

I'd reflash the latest Google apps from recovery.

If that doesn't work, do a system reset (or format data from recovery... same thing)

Glad you got it figured out. :D
