:: Installing Google Apps on Nokia X ::

Having rooted your Nokia X, you now have privilege to access and modify your device’s system. Here’s how you can install Google apps and services on your phone:

*
 Download the Google apps package, specially packed for the Nokia X:

* Extract the Google apps (Gapps) ZIP and copy the folder to your phone.

* Now launch Root Browser and navigate to the Gapps folder.

* Mark/select all files present inside it and select Copy.

* Now go to system/app directory and paste the files here.

* Go to each app that you just copied and set the permissions for each as rw-r–r– (0644).
