So we've found the app/widget now we just need help installing the widget... Any help
-Just take off the .zip and enjoy
Code:
adb remount
adb push HtcFootprints.apk /system/app/HtcFootprints.apk
adb push HtcFootprints.odex /system/app/HtcFootprints.odex
adb shell reboot
Anyone happen to have the apk and odex? I can't find them in any my old Hero builds and would like to use program and widget... Thanks!!!
Ah bummer, I finally find the Footprints.apk and it force closes as soon as it starts on CM 3.6.5

Beats me I don't have a Hero Rom.
what is Footprints app for exactly?
beware,
htc Footprints can only be used on HERO ROMS won't work on 1.5 regular cupcake, JF, Cyangen or others.

thank you!!! ya still was looking for it... Will try it and let you know. You installed box the odex and apk n still it wouldn't work on Hero?
I tried installing just HTC footprints apk and odex via adb just got errors. Might try again later.
I am using a hero Rom on a magic.
i was able to get the odex to the app_s but when i install the widget it gives me error
"Failure [Install_Failed_Dexopt]"
If anyone knows what that means can you please help? Thank You
Yeah that's what I get when trying to install just the normal app from that zip. Can't figure it out as of yet.
When I install the. Apk from this thread it at least installs but crashes on opening. I think we are missing something

Thats weird bc i've used this footprints i've uploaded the whole time and still use it without it crashing. what error do you get when it crashes?
Try this.
adb remount
adb push HtcFootprints.apk /system/app/HtcFootprints.apk
adb push HtcFootprints.odex /system/app/HtcFootprints.odex
adb shell reboot
I was pushing to /system/app_s/ originally and that's what kept giving me the error. I don't know the difference between app and app_s, maybe app_s is just a system link or something.
Anyways, pushed the odex and apk for footprints and the widget, and it works, no crashing so far. widget works too.
it gives me a error: Read-only file system.
and even when i try in rootmanager it wont let me change it to r/w it stays on r/o
I was bothered by the fact that Google Talk didn't show some of the messages I received. Johan de Koning submitted a patch that wasn't accepted by Google but works well. I applied this patch for personal use, but I thought that you might be interested as well.
Also, I had a look at the IM application and I modified it to allow login instead of having the "phone number cannot be read from your SIM" error. This might or might not work. It works for me, but users in the US have reported that it still fails.
UPDATE 16th Jun 2010:
Added version 1.1.2 from Cliq.
UPDATE 3rd Feb 2010:
New eclair version for IM.apk, completely untested. Might or might not work.
Patched ImProvider is no longer useful for Android versions >= 2.
Also, I removed the cupcake IM.apk because I just noticed it is broken and won't work. No-one should be still running a rooted cupcake anyway.
Notes
This is for donut. I tested it on cm 4.2.2 and 4.3.2.1, but it should work with any donut rom. As far as I know, it doesn't use sms at all. It still needs the tmo plugins to login, but no sms are sent. Other than that, it does exactly the same as when you login on wifi.
Installation
Some of these steps will fail depending on the rom (the dalvik-cache and odex part). These errors can be safely ignored.
First reboot into recovery, then, on your computer :
Code:
adb shell
mount /system
mount /sdcard
cp /system/app/IM.apk /sdcard/IM.apk
cp /system/app/ImProvider.apk /sdcard/ImProvider.apk
exit
adb push ImProvider.zip /system/app/ImProvider.apk
adb push IM.zip /system/app/IM.apk
adb shell
mount /system/sd
rm /system/sd/dalvik-cache/*
rm /system/app/ImProvider.odex
rm /system/app/IM.odex
umount /system/sd
umount /system
umount /sdcard
reboot
Of course, I'm not responsible if anything breaks.
More information about the sources is available in this post.
which roms are these for? cupcake? donut? hero? haha. i pushed them to my hero rom and they do not show up in my app tray or in applicantion manager.
Tested them on cm 4.2.2 and it works. Does this use ip traffic or sms?
ok cool, probably for donut. i tried on Hero cupcake and it fails, just keep getting ForceCloses. owell, i dont use it anyways but just thought it be fun =)

You can try removing TmoImPlugin.apk and see if it still works.

I asked him in another thread earlier and this is his response

I'm going to push it into Cyan's build and remove TmoImPlugin.apk and see if it still works.
Well, it doesn't work without tmoimplugin, and with that, I know it uses sms.
Sorry for the lack of details.. I updated the first post to make it clearer. It doesn't send sms afaik, becaus my plan doesn't have unlimited sms and I wasn't charged for any sms since I patched the IM app.
Also, this is for donut only, because the IM subsystem changed a bit since cupcake.
can you somehow modify im.apk so that it would stay in memory?
seems to work fine *tries out this im comparison to ebuddy, seems much faster ^^*
not sure if it uses sms, but dont think so.. ah well got unlimited anyway ^^
Do you have the source patches for these?
I'd like to have more feedback.. Does it work properly for everyone ? Any bugs or FC ?

The patch from ImProvider is here : http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=597
but I couldn't recompile it from source without breaking everything.. I had to patch the apk directly. Maybe you'll do better.
The patch for the IM application is attached, the edited file is in packages/apps/IM/src/com/android/im/service

I don't know how to do that, sorry. But it seems the app already stays in memory for a while. Are you sure it doesn't stay already, if it's not killed by an application manager ?
Sorry if I'm being a noob, but how exactly does one install this? I did
adb push /path/IM.apk /system/app
adb push /path/ImProvider.apk /system/app
and rebooted, and I still get SIM card cannot be read errors. I feel like I'm probably missing a step like installing.

Yea, same here. I guess it doesn't work for users in the States. However, it does work on wifi but once I turn off wifi, it disconnects.
Try installing it from recovery if you didn't, and clear dalvik cache (rm /system/sd/dalvik-cache/* on cm with apps2sd, not sure about others).
i'm tryin using it on CM ROM 4.0.4 but when i try push it, i can't use the IM, is there anyone already can used that IM in CM ROM 4.0.4 ?? thanks before
I hate when my messages are loosed, and run loose around the intarwebs.
Additionally, I don't like to be LOSING messages. =9
Thanks! Works perfect on enomther 2.1.1

It doesn't work on cupcake, donut only (cm >= 4.2).

really? youtube didn't work.. pretty sure that's what I have on mine, not 100% sure, but i'll double check it...
I think for youtube you can just do a Package Installer install, might have to do a adb push for that.

When I tried to adb install I got Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK]
When I tried adb push then a reboot, it doesn't show up in my app drawer, I think the only new feature of the You Tube was the widget, so I gave up on it quickly and restored the original

hmm what method did u use to install the nav? the one i used changed my build prop and build number maybe that was the reason perhaps i need to push back the old prop.....
I started with a fresh install of cyanogen 4.2.4 wiping my ext4 partition and starting new because of what I read about some programs crashing after editing the prop files.
Then I edited the build.prop line
ro.build.version.release=1.6 to
to
ro.build.version.release=2.0
Then edited build.trout.prop line (use build.sapphire.prop if using MyTouch)
ro.build.fingerprint=tmobile/kila/dream/trout:1.6/DRC83/14721:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys
to
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/voles/sholes/sholes:2.0/ESD20/17572:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys
Then booted into the system and installed all my usual apps, haven't had any problems with apps crashing or NAV dissappearing at all
I also found the change needed to get the new YouTube app to work, in the build.prop file change
ro.build.version.sdk=4
to
ro.build.version.sdk=5
I found this in another thread, not my actual work that figured this out, doing another fresh install with cyanogenmod 4.2.5 with this edit also, I'll report back any adverse side effects of this change.
So to recap so far using Maps, Facebook & You Tube apps from the droid dump
****Edit****
After changing the sdk value I started getting fc's for the new facebook for everything, I couldn't even log in, changing the value back to 4 allowed me to log in and it was working normally but the new You Tube app disspaeared from the app drawer. It appears to me at this point I'll have to choose one or the other!!
I go to select wallpapers on certain ROMs and it just won't work. Some Live Wallpapers show the icon when you go to pick them, others don't. The ones without it FC, the ones with it don't. When you pick the ones that don't FC, they won't show up, just a black screen. Help?

Kings 2.1
Like lets say we go to the Live Wallpaper select screen, some wallpapers have a screen shot, other don't. The ones that don't when you press them for an example before you press select, it Force Closes (FC). The ones with the examples, when you do go to the example, you can see it, but when you select it, it won't show up on the screen. No Launcher2.apk or anything. Also, re-flashing, this is like the 3rd 2.1 ROM I've flashed, same problem.

Hm that's really weird. I've flashed all of the 2.1 ROMs so far and none of them did that.. Even if they did, it would stop FCing the second time I try it. What they suggest is to not partition your sdcard and from what I see in your sig, it's partitioned. Maybe that's interfering with it. Have you tried them without your card being partitioned?

Code:
Go into recovery
Go into console
Type: parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
Type: print to check how many partitions you have.
Delete partitions by entereing rm (partition number)
So say you have 3 partitions it should look like this without the <enter>
rm 1 <enter>
rm 2 <enter>
rm 3 <enter>
Has anyone found any apps that this works with or do we need to wait for all the devs to come out with new versions? All i checked wouldn't allow me to move them.
Unrooted by the way.

Every app has to be updated by the author. No way around it.
If your rooted you can just switch the toggle to 2 and all the apps can be moved over to sd and new apps install there by defaut. I'm not a real app whore having maybe 50 more or less but still, they are every last one on the sd.
No problem thankyou. Just making sure I was not doing anything wrong with it lol.

Try searching im almost positive that there is a tut on it but, You need to install the Android SDK and create a connection to your device with the sdk.
You can then run the ADB command from terminal(mac OSX) or CMD(windows)

i switched setInstallLocation to 2 but if i try to move an app to the sd card or install anything from the market my phone just restarts.
anyone else having this problem?
i installed the ota from .zip directly over cyanogen 5.0.6 no wipe
sdcard is formatted fat32/ext3/swap
any help appreciated.
Is there an easy way to find out which of the currently installed apps have been updated to support FroYo's apps2sd?
There has to be a better way than to open Manage applications, sort by size and then click on on each app..

Had this problem a while back. A wipe was required before it worked correctly.
There is also my modded spare parts that let's you choose where to force install app, without having to go through adb

There's a free app on the market called "App 2 SD", it shows all apps that can be moved and moves them for you (that should be all of them
Visit this link from your phone or use Chrome-to-phone if you used the shell command above) if you're cool like that:
App2SD
[EDIT] Having the App 2 SD app running after using the command above will crash the apps!
yeah if you want to spend ages compiling
