Question Google market/play store HELP! Running Eclipse 2.2.1

So I just flashed this rom a little while ago. I like it. Its smooth and everything BUT my google market was force closing for a little while until I cleared the data/cache. That fixed the force close.

What I am wondering here is if the google play store will update from the market like it would on a stock rom? or How do I go about getting the play store over the google market...??? Anyone else having a similar problem with it?

I don't know if this is the correct answer or not, but it is what I did. I backed up Play Store in TiBu, switched to Eclipse and restored it from there. Otherwise mine did not update automatically.

When you open the market it should automatically update to play

first time I installed Eclipse it did not update. Second time I installed it it did. Third time it did not. Go figure.

Any idea what the APK name is? I looked in system/app but nothing jumped out at me... Or maybe the following link will help?

Never mind! I had to use Root Explorer (first app I paid for) to find it. Goes in /data/app directory. Hope that works for you...

Actually you should just take the .apk file and place it in /system/apps using root explore or es file explore granted root access. Once you place it in the /system/apps folder and replace the current one do a power down then reboot. When phone gets reboot click on new Google Play icon and agree then all done.
