PC driver installation error and GoogleApps/Market with LeOS 2 beta

Hi guys, I have a 3GW100 and I'm using it in Europe. I have used multiple firmwares from both Lenovo and the A-team, but with none of them I could install the PC drivers to access to the phone.

Right now I have the LeOS 2 beta and tried to install LePhone2.0-20101230.msi but the installation just ask me the whole time if I want to install risky drivers but it never installs them. I'm using Windows Vista (Spanish) I also have PCSuite91 installed. Anyone knows how could I install the driver?

Due to the fact that I cannot access the fastboot method I just copied the files in /system from the GoogleApps of Cyanogen but nothing changed. I tried also to delete /data/dalvik-cache/ but there is no difference. What should I do?

Thanks!
 
Danio, I have this drivers installed on my Portuguese Windows Vista 32 bits and working fine.
When installing I get the "not certified drivers" alert but I just click continue and it goes.

Even with the drivers installed and my phone appering as a ADB Interface device on device manager, I could not make the adb commands to work.

So I tried with the drivers installed and the 91 PC suite opened and them it worked, after that you can follow our hints on this topic:

Forget about fastboot, the phone doesn
 
Hi Pino, thanks. I see the installation of the google apps so confusing. Could you help me? This is what I've done following that thread:
1-Reinstall the Leos 2 beta (so it's new)
2-Installed z4root, root explorer and root my phone
3-Copied gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip contents to my SDCard
4-Used Root Explorer to manually copy them from the SDCard to /system/ (basically the same as push)
5-? Nothing change, I don't see any new apps on the menu. What do I have to do? Install the the new apps copied in /system/app? Execute any other file? I tried installing each of the new apps and I just couldn't install one but then when I tried Market it doesn't start.

Btw, do you know if the phone works with 3G in Europe?

PS: do I need to install the whole android SDK to have adb or can I just copy the file form another computer where I have it installed?

Thanks :)
 
1- OK

2 - OK

3 - Extract the gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip contents to the ADB folder at your computer (I believe you can copy the ADB files only, you don
 
3 - ADB is part of Android SDK, I believe it's possible to download the ADB files only, but I'm not shure, if you need further informations, read this:
[HOW-TO] ADB for Dummies(How-To Learner's Guide) - xda-developers

5 - I already posted a link to another topic were we already discussed all this matters, you can find the drivers and PC suite here:

6 - Yes Wi-Fi off and mobile data on

7 - ADB is DOS only, you must use this commands on a DOS window.
 
Pino, it worked perfectly! Thank you! You can later install last google maps version from the apk in xda-developers.

I just copied the whole platform-tools from the SDK to make sure adb works
