Yes, for some people their google credentials get messed up when play store installs. Just open google talk and sign in, it makes the rest of the google apps work, including play store.

Thank you for the tip about the "Talk" application. My "Talk" application also failed to open with exactly the same problem as my "Play".

It got me thinking, the night before I had renamed the "GoogleLoginService.apk" to "GoogleLoginService.OLD" as I was testing to see if it had any value on my phone - turns out it did!

I rename it back to ".apk"; and both "Talk" and "Play" are now working.

edit.

Got the same problem. Newbie who rooted my phone for the first time today and installed HyDr0G3N-ICS and found the play store no longer present. Have tried copying onto the memory card but it just opens for a split second before closing.

Have also tried downloading the Google Talk files as heard seperately that this is needed, but two of the three files don't install there either. Anybody else had this problem?

You should try downloading the zip file for your release, called gapps.... Or Google apps. It's flashed from recovery. Once this is done, you'll have the market back, and you can install the proper talk apk.
