I have a Nextbook Next7P12-8G tablet. Sometimes it's identified as a YIFANG Next7P12-8G. I was going to give it to a friend, but when I reset it to factory default settings, Google Play wasn't there, but it was when I bought it new. I'm hoping someone has or knows where I can get a stock rom. I've spent hours looking for one, but didn't find one.

Thanks

A better place to ask would be <http://forum.xda-developers.com/>

I sounds like you just need to gapps package. Check the cyanogenmod and/or aokp sites and download the gapps appropriate for your rev of android. You would need some think (like the SDK tools or a custom recovery) to install it.

I found several of them for Ice cream sandwich and downloaded them. I put one on the root of an sd card, and held down the power and volume buttons. On the menu I chose the apply update from sd card option. Then I got a message that says signature verification failed. How do I get around that?

Thanks for your help. At least I have some idea how to fix the problem if I ever get the signature thing taken care of.

I fixed it. I had a problem with it giving me error messages about signature verification failing when I tried to install the google apps. I finally got the idea to look into how to get around that signature verification problem and ended up at this site.

I followed the directions there under Installation. After it booted with the recovery file, I saw that TWRP (I never used it before) gave me the option to bypass the signature verification. Then I was able to flash the tablet using one of the roms I found here:

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions.
