I understand this is the Captivate forum, however I was unable to find an answer over in the Vibrant threads and I was hoping someone here could help I'm currently running a custom rom, however unfortunately AllShare has been removed. I've attempted to push the dlna.apk file back onto the phone as I've done with other applications, however it simply does NOT install. Any suggestions?
Thank you all in advance
+1 .
I saw someone else on here suggest for a similar app. But did you try to find all the files it installs from the phone and just copying it over to the custom rom?
Very similar is UPnPlay.

Noticed this in quite a few custom ROMs that market doesn't work after flashing. I kept getting the 'download unsuccessful' errors all the time. So on a hunch, I replaced the vending.apk and MarketUpdater.apk files in /system/app with the same files from CM 6.1 beta, and market started working again (as in I can download files again). However, now I am getting market FCs every minute or so. Is there any other that probably needs to be replaced? What are the market's dependencies?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
i have the same problem with market: download unsuccesful but i didn't flash my phone or anything. i tryed but it didnt work. after a while i've noticed that the market send me this msg when i try download smth.
how we solve this?
bump...
someone please help...
Ok, I have a solution here (sort of) which I've tried on various custom ROMs now and it works. Last time I replaced vending.apk and marketupdated.apk and it gave me FC's all over the market. So, this time, instead of replacing individual APKs, i flashed the whole Google Apps package from CyanogenMod via recovery. It solved the market issues for me.

and how exactly u did that? there are a lot of files/dirs there, which one to download?
Hey aatifahmad,
I also would like to learn how to apply this update.zip. I tried it via recovery but it seems I had recovery 3e and it does not do unsigned update.zip. Do you have a workaround for this issue or did you revert back to recovery 2e?
If you have an easier way, please let us know. I really don't want to mess with the recovery.
I have been trying to resolve this issue for a day now. I flashed to 2.2 Froyo, unlocked and rooted my Stock Rogers Samsung Captivate. Everything is working fine, I started downloaded all my favourite apps back when I had stock firmware. A few hours into using my phone, I noticed apps that I used to be able to find weren't showing up. I am not sure if it is related, but I noticed this after removing bloatware with titanium backup.
I installed following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861103
After searching forums for hours, the solution seemed simple, modifying a line of code in the build.prop file and overwriting the old one. I have tried this one:
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon_wwe/inc/inc/inc:2.2/FRF91/231334:user/release-keys
with no luck. I decided to reflash the 2.2 rom as I assumed removing the bloat ware was the cause, but I am still having the same market issues.
I am not sure where to go from here, did anyone experience similar problems? Any possible solutions? I really want DBZ scouter back

I got the Cognition files and the Odin standalone, but I'm confused as to where to get the other files
• PIT.pit
• PDA.tar
• PHONE.tar
• CSC.tar
I can't find the download link on the thread

Cognition has had this since the first release
Im trying to find the Cognition Odin install but its not on the site, the site only has the ROM files. I would ideally want to install with rom manage as it would be a lot easier but my market is so messed up its not even showing up when i search it.

you dont need to install rom manager
put the update.zip on your sdcard and reboot to recovery....
reinstall packages (it will reboot, just reinstall packages again)
you will now be in clockwork
install zip from sdcard, and point to the rom

Thank you so much for the zip file, everything went smoothly. I liked the voice telling me how much time each process would take. However, when I searched the app store for DBZ scouter it still cant find it, or any other paid apps! This is getting really frustrating. Should I give it a few minutes/hours for the paids apps to show up? I am enjoying the rom though, very smooth compared to the stock ones.
It looks like I'm not the only one

I guess it was just a coincidence that this happened the same time I unlocked my phone.. heh. Well now I can finally go back to studying for exams
Moved to Q&A.
I have tried a couple of custom roms and they have all worked fine at first but then after a while most of them would do something like force close whenever i try to open anything. This is getting really frustrating. I have a build 1009 and im looking at phoenix 3.0 and perception 10.0 both look really nice. Could someone tell me what im doing wrong and how to fix it. Every time i try to enable third party apps recently or something else ( I can't remember specificly what it was but it was rooting it or something) it will do the blah blah something apcore stoped working force close so right now im just going to use my phone on stock firmware and use it like normal and see what happens but could someone help me. I have used gingerclone, Assonance (force close problem), Darky 8.0 with the captivate workaround (force close problem), and maybe a few others but those are the only ones i can remember.
Custom roms are rooted with side loading enabled. So if you are trying to do this after you have the rom loaded, that could be a problem. I also would like to know what you are restoring on these roms. Should only be user apps.
To pin point your problem please provide more detail
I have put apps from custom roms onto the stock rom and other roms. Could that be the problem? And also this is what im going back to.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10056254&postcount=36
Im only doing the first part im not going to jh7. would that have something to do with it. Any help is greatly appriciated.

What apps?
I do not think only going back to jh7 would cause your issue. Tell me more about what you are trying to do to enable side loading, and why you are doing it on as custom rom
I had the ones i downloaded and i sideloaded one wireless tether app a long time ago then i backed it all up with titanium backup and i would install a custom rom and it would have roms preinstalled on it. I would want to put on a different custom rom so i backed up again and the flashed back to stock the to the new rom. and i would restore all the apps including the one from previous roms. If you are asking for the specifics it would take a while and about the side loading i followed the guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=738376 and did the method 3 it seemed to work fine until i rebooted and then it did the force close thing. And i didn't go to jh7 i went to jh6 or jh2 or something like that but im going to try going to jh7 and see if that helps.
dont restore ALL apps in Titanium Backup. safest option is "restore missing apps+data"
all the custom 2.2 roms have tethering/wifi hotspot built into them...no need for another app for it.
for custom roms, you DO NOT need to root or sideload...they are enabled by default on all custom roms.
Thank both of you for your help. I will probably for now only install roms specificly for captivate and with specific instructions.
hey guys, just rooted my Samsung Captivate. Everything has been going great till now. i Downloaded a lagfix, which is honestly the main reason i rooted my phone. however after everything (yes, i did everyting right) i didnt have the app that was included in the .zip file iput in my phone. the app is called MCR scripts.
i did some reseach and i found this key line
"*** If MCR Scripts DOES NOT show up, its probably because you don't have the non market install hack on your phone. In the update.zip you can find the apk and install via ADB, but I didn't do it this way. ******"
in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=750869
so how do i just get the MCR scripts? i downloaded tayutama's zip file and i found the folder named "scripts" with the 3 files in there but they are .sh files.
so what do i do here? do i need to convert then to apk or something? please help!!!
forgot to mention...because i have a captivate i can not just go to setting/applications/ and choose for any app to be allowed or what not. i simply do not have that option. i use android central to get my apk files working on my phone. I have tried to run a zip file that will just let me install the apk file on my phone with no need for a computer. But that was to no avail.
bumping this.....this forum moves fast haha
thats an old thread and deprecated now im sure. why not flash a kernel with voodoo enabled? That would be a much safer and logical approach
woooah what?
i would like to get all technical and hardcore with this rooting thing but step by step lol. I'm still in my beginning stage i have a lot of experience to be earned ahead of me. is there no way to just get the mcr scripts as an apk?

have a look at the date on that thread, and the FIRST LINE in the thread asking to be deleted....
right, i didn't notice that...wow. either way that new thread the link is dead. and for me to run that packaged zip file i would need to completely set my phone to stock, nor do i know how to do that. Im simply asking for just the MCR files in apk format if that is possible at all. If not then can you please point me in the right direction? Thank you for all the help so far, i truly do appreciate it.
i guess the real question here is what is your ultimate goal?
you want froyo? install a rom (most everything on the dev forum will install a lagfix for you, click on the link in my sig)
you just want a 'lagfix' on stock eclair? install a 2.1 kernel with voodoo
rom would be customizing the android correct? like a new home layout and what not? That would be cool but im happy with what i have...i would just like to be able to download any app for free. and get the lag fix. i got the first part down (apps for free) by rooting the phone, all i have to do is get the apk downloaded on my comp then run android central to install it on my phone.
so i download kernel with voodoo, is it just a drop into internal sd...same as when i rooted my phone? then go into recovery and choose reinstall packages?
ok found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=784170
sooo i would definitely be installing the one WITHOUT the back light notification, as...my hpone doesnt have leds. Hopefully it works for all galaxy s phones because this seems to be for only the 19000 captivate? while i have the sgh captivate from AT&T.
3rd page in less than 24 hours...wow lol
so at this thread
http://project-voodoo.org/download
i downloaded the lag fix for my phone which is like near the bottom of the page. i renamed it to lag fix zip file tp "update" but since i have the other files that are also renamed to "update" like for my rooting and stuff the file ended up being update(3) idk if that makes a difference but when i booted my phone from recovery mode after choosing resinstall pacakges, the phone boots up normally no long pause durgin the at&t screen or anything so i know the lag fix didnt work...also because the phone is still...slow. helllp! please.
you need to remove ANY other update.zip files from your phone and rename THAT file to update.zip
then reinstall packages
once you have installed an update.zip it is no longer required on your sdcard
thats what i was thinking, just wanted to make sure. Ill check back once its done thankyou.
YES!!! i knew it was going to work when i heard the freaky computer lady's voice haha. Even still, i didnt notice a HUGE improvement, my quadrant score is a bit dissapointing only 1400...
yea, so do you guys think i should maybe overclock? its still laggy/slow to me. Im sure becuase of the preious iphone usage lol. whats the best way to o/c? i heard that the overclock app isnt very reliable...i know , i know, overclocking itself isnt relable but are there other ways about doing it?
off your original topic ...
understood. making a new thread.
I decided to root my Galaxy S I9000 the other day to delete some of the really annoying bloatware and free up some space.
Knowing my n00bie, idiotic self, I didn't back up any of the things I deleted and now my Android App Store no longer downloads anything.
After some research I came to the conclusion that the reason was because I deleted the "DownloadsProvider.apk" app. I've tried re-downloading the files off the internet but when I put it back into that same system files folder and change its permissions to match all the other apps, I find that my problem is still not solved.
I figured this may be due to an Android update around last year which gave a "Downloads" application at the devices application menu. But after replacing the file, this "Download" application is not there like it use to be (before I made changes) so I figured it may be an outdated version.
I also forgot if it had an ".odex" file previously along with the the ".apk" file and each time I try to get the files from random sources of the internet, the file size is always different.
Maybe someone could provide a full set of stock apps for this version of Android? Not sure if that's how to fix this but I really am struggling and need some serious expert help.
I'm on Android 2.3.6 and Baseband I9000XXJVU if that's helpful.
Thanks in advance.
I really need help, no one has replied. Great.
I think that your best bet would be to back up important data and restore to a stock rom. But I'd say wait till someone else confirms this before actually doing it
I'd be happy to do that but I can't find any source that offers a full set of up-to-date stock roms. Either that or they aren't compatible with Galaxy S/Android 2.3.6

An other option.could be a.custom ROM. Or try and actually install the download manager apk.
Sent from my GT-I9001 using XDA App
I've managed to get Android Download Manager.APK on my phone but the Android Market still crashes when I try to download something and the problem is not solved.
I've also tried clearing the data/cache of the Market and that hasn't helped either.
Maybe I could solve the problem by updating the firmware? I don't know, I'm out of ideas...
Updating or reinstalling will deffo fix this but.you will lose everything thats not backed up. Back important stuff up. Download stock rom that you want and install using Odin. Or try updating through KIES.
