Hi I was trying to install the new HTC_IME on my phone right now I am currently using 2.0 and I tried to install with appsinstaller and it didn't work. So is there a way to do it threw terminal emulator, or threw recovery?
I don't use adb cause I tried setting it up and it didn't work.
So somebody please give me a good reply! Thanks!
try with astro
if astro doesn't work try this.
you must have adb working. adb does wonders. works every time. top cmds is for adb and bttm is terminal on phone.
Adb remount
Adb push HTC_IME.apk system/app
Adb shell rm system/sd/app/HTC_IME.apk
Adb shell rm data/app/HTC_IME.apk
Adb shell reboot
Or from terminal
Mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Cp *yourdir*/HTC_IME.apk system/app
rm data/app/HTC_IME.apk
rm system/app/HTC_IME.apk
reboot
PHP:
since you dont use adb, if your using any kind of windows let me know and i can personally walk you thru an adb setup. i have encountered the worst of worst mess ups. durrr lol... fosho . . . . .
that doesnt make any sense, why are you removing HTC_IME right after you're done pushing it?
You need three files for HTC IME to work, HTC_IME.apk, Clicker.apk (both of those in /system/app or /data/app) and libt9.so (in /system/lib)
Assuming you place all three in C:\
Code:
adb remount
adb push C:\libt9.so /system/lib
adb push C:\Clicker.apk /system/app (or /data/app if you don't have space)
adb push C:\HTC_IME.apk /system/app (or /data/app if you don't have space)
no need to reboot, just give it time to finish dexopting (about a minute) then go to Settings>Locale & Text and enable (checkmark) Touch Input, disable Android Keyboard if you wish.
About where to get the files? search, but it's easier if you search inside Cyanogen's (version 4.0.4 and below) roms and pull them from those.

First of all thank you for taking my advice , the Q & A section is the best place for all your questions about android . Seeing that your new here it would be wise that you do some research on the following
ADB
zip7
rar
cyanogen's 1.4 recovery
terminal commands
and so on . There's a lot but as you search you will find them ...
NOW the yourdir question ,it's on your SDcard where you downloaded your htc_ime.apk , if it's on the root of the sdcard (not in any folders) then just use cp sdcard/HTC_IME.apk or if you downloaded it then it's in your download folder then you do cp sdcard/download/HTC_IME.apk
adb remount
adb install directoryofyourfile\HTC_IME.apk

worked for me
I have installed the splash screen used in this thread:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=600902
I have used (for copy):
adb remount
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk
then I have changed the copy of framework-res.apk and then I have deleted framework-res.apk from my device with:
adb shell rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
finally I have replaced framework-res.apk(original) with framework-res.apk(Amended) with:
adb push framework-res-apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
the installation is successful, but i have problem with market, because then i have installed the framework-res.apk, i can't updated the programs of my device
any possibility of using custom made images?
I can't find a thread for this, but how would I delete stock wallpapers or stock live wallpapers. I prefer to pick and choose which ones to remove to try and save a little space.
I have a rooted N1 with Cyan's mod. I'm comfortable using ADB, just don't know the proper commands, locations of wallpapers or names of specific files.
Me too. want to know where the files are located.
Me three. I've searched around in nearly every directory and cannot find them. I would like to remove the stock htc wallpapers to save space.
adb shell rm /system/app/LiveWallpapers.apk
adb shell rm -r /data/data/com.android.wallpaper
adb uninstall com.android.wallpaper
adb shell rm /system/app/MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk
adb shell rm -r /data/data/com.android.magicsmoke
adb shell rm /system/app/VisualizationWallpapers.apk
adb shell rm -r /data/data/com.android.VisualizationWallpaper
adb uninstall com.android.VisualizationWallpaper
adb shell rm /system/app/Mode10Wallpapers.apk
LiveWallpapers.apk = contains nexus and water live wallpaper and some other i cant remember
wallpapers are located inside of /system/framework/framework-res.apk and does require slight knowledge of how to edit framework files
hey i follow the first adb then i got this (?) then no go???what i need to do after (?)

Check if ur phone is detected by adb (adb devices). Then do an adb remount and the run the above adb commands
My device is detected but i try to put in the above commands I it says that its a read-only file system.
Static wallpapers (except the single default wallpaper) are stored in your launcher or in CM6 or Kang-o-rama a special wallpapers app.
It's much easier to download ES File Explorer, turn on root functions, mount system as read/write (same menu) and selectively delete the files you want from /system/app/ and /data/data/ as above.
But really, you're not going to save any user space as all because, for the most part, you're deleting stuff from /system which you don't otherwise need space on.
Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows the correct ADB command for removing an app from the /data/data folder?
I recently installed a new ROM on my nexus one and it came with both Launcher Pro and ADW Launcher installed. I know I could just NOT use the one I don't like but I'd rather remove it.
I tried:
adb remount
adb shell rm /data/data/org.adw.launcher
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
AND
adb remount
adb shell rm /data/data/org.adw.launcher.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But neither worked.
Any suggestions?
I'd appreciate it.
I used root explorer and just deleted all apps I didnt want from /system/app
(ADW, facebook, calculator, amazon mp3)
And I think you have to use /system/app instead of /data/data
adb shell rm /system/app/ADWLauncher.apk
or try this
adb devices
adb remount
adb shell
/system/app
ls (this shows you all apps installed, search for the launcher)
rm -r [name of the file you want to remove].apk
Isn´t the app itself in /system/app/ADWLauncher.apk ??
oops, thats what I meant. Just copied his adb line.. edited my post now, thanks
Thanks guys, I got it to work.
I appreciate all your help
Hi there... i tried the same commands but i get directory not empty.
i'm not trying to remove the whole directory but just an apk.
i tried it both of windows and linux to no avail.
thanks in advance.
How do you install apks from the nook color once you have them installed? I have tried to do
adb uninstall blah.apk but that just comes back with
Failure
I've been able to uninstall apps with advanced task manager with out a problem. Seems way easier then running a command. But in case you need the command here it is:
adb shell ls /data/app ---- to get the full name of the apk
adb shell rm -r /data/app/#APPNAME

I have not installed advanced task manager but will, Thanks
Use a launcher that supports holding on trash icon to uninstall.
LP, ADW, and Zeam all support this functionality.
Noob Mistake
