Oh no!  I was trying to force the 4.2.1 update by clearing the data, and force stopping Google Services.  Then I went to check for system updates and the option isn't even there to check.  Also, now Google Services is GONE!  Where can I find GS and put it back??

Ah ha! Found GSF at the very bottom of the apps list!  Live and learn...

Are you sure you haven't disable it by mistake? If you have it'll be at the bottom of the App list...

If it really is missing here's a copy of the .apk and the .odex in my Dropbox, you'll need both...

GoogleServicesFramework.apk

GoogleServicesFramework.odex

EDIT: Just read your edit, you obviously disabled it by mistake...lol

Were you able to force the update? I can provide a flashable zip...

Yeah, thanks guys.  I got too drifty last night to carry on... but I'll see if I can find those back-ups and get me game progress back (not to mention my psychedelic loader!).

OK, so I'm trying to regain root.  I run NTool Kit V1.6 and it looks like it's working... until the end.  The Team Win Recover Project comes up and on my pc it says "waiting for your device to finish booting back up".   I'm not sure which of the options to tap so it just sits there waiting.  There is the following boxes:  Install, Wipe, Backup, Restore, Mount, Settings, Advanced, Reboot.  Not sure how to proceed... any iders??

BTW, if I hit Reboot, the menu comes up: System, Power Off, Recovery, Bootloader... which road to choose?

Reboot system
Whatever you do don't push reboot system! !       Just kidding. You should be cool right now right? All you just did was restart your system from your custom recovery . how does it look?

OK, working.....

Hmmm, OK now it booted and I tried (as it said) to open SuperSU but it told me, "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it.  This is a problem!"  So I guess I try to root again??

Don't you have root keeper? Restore the su backup with it if you have it.
Ah so you started from scratch again. Doesn't that mean you have to run busy box first? I'm confused now.

Yes, I have Voodoo OTA RK but under 'status' it only has 2 boxes checked: Superuser app installed, and ?ststem supports root protection.
