[Q] social hub - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was having a problem with social hub so I deleted it and thought I could reinstall through the update. The problem is the update social ub is not the same as the origional . I thought I could do a factory reset to get it back but, it didn't come back. does anyone know how I can add the file, and where to get it ?
thank you .

I believe UnifiedInbox.apk is the file you need. Here it is.
Ian

Thank you.
I downloaded the file and it asked to install I clicked yes it starts to install then says can't install. Jaut want to make sureit is the right file. I have the samsung email but, I want the social hub back.
Thanks again.

How did you delete the Social Hub? I am using Gmail and facebook as separate apps so I don't need Social Hub!

You need to push the apk to /system/app rather than installing it. Use adb or root explorer.
You can uninstall by deleting the apk from the same folder, or by using something like Titanium backup. All these things require root

[Q] Sending Blank emails when replying

I upgraded to the leaked OS 2.2 Froyo and now I am getting the below issue when I reply to emails. Doesn't happen to EVERY email but several to cause me issues at work.
I am using Exchange only.
I reply to an email and it is recieved but all text I typed is missing and it actually looks as if I forwarded the email back to the sender.
I saw on another forum some other were experiencing this issue but none had a clue how to resolve it.
Anyone know how to fix this? Others seeing this?
Any help would be appreciated!!
???
Is no one else having this issue? Does anyone have any ideas how to resolve it? Do I need to wipe the deivce?
I've had this issue as well when using my exchange.

I had the same issue with email after cognition2.2BETA5.5. It seems that designgears had installed the AOSP email app but removed it in later versions due to too many complaints. I find that the AOSP app is much better then then TW Email apk. I performed the steps below to install the AOSP Email.apk. Replies work everytime without issue.
1.) Get the Email AOSP app from a different rom or make a request and I will happily provide a link to download the apk.
2.) Connect your phone to the computer and move the Email.apk to the root of your sdcard.
3.) Backup your current Email.apk with Titanium or manually copy it to another location on your phone.
NOTE: You may need to backup your phone settings so you can restore your launcher after clearing cache in the final step to avoid having to replace all of your home screen icons.
4.) Using Root Explorer or Astro, copy the Email.apk copied to your sdcard into the folder /system/app/ to replace the current app.
5.) Return to the home screen. At this point you should no longer see an email icon on your dock.
6.) Go to Applications->Settings->Applications->Manage Applications
7.) Clear the cache on the TWLauncher Application.
8.) Return to the home screen and you should now see the email icon has returned to the dock.
9.) Restore TWLauncher settings with Titanium to restore home screen icons that were removed in the cache.
Please let me know if you need the email.apk from cognition2.2beta5.5
Aosp email.API link request
Is there a copy of the email.API that doesn't have the blank reply issue yet has all the features of cognition latest release?
I have attached a working Email apk to this post. Down load it and follow the steps in the post above to resolve the blank email reply issue. Let me know if you have any issues.
I followed the instructions, however, I did not have a backup of twlauncher, so now I don't have an email icon on my home bar
So put the icon back on your launch bar. It is configurable. (doing this from memory, so i may miss a step). Go to your list of apps -> menu -> edit and you can configure 3 of the 4 icons on the touchwiz launcer (you can't get rid of the apps shortcut).

Alright, hopefully you all are still willing to help somebody else out on this issue, as I am in the same boat as gibgib3. I have followed the steps above using the attached email.apk from f13nd0.
The issue I get is that launching email cause an immediate crash of the application, as well as attempting to add a new "Corporate" email account.
I am not an Android development power user myself, although I've used adb in the past sparingly. I really just am clinging to the leaked Froyo build from October, and just want working email (TouchDown is crazy slow and expensive) until Samsung finally pushes out an official Froyo build.
Any ideas here?
Flash a new ROM that has the email bugs fixed.
From the interwebs via fast thumbs and a faster phone.

That is the "nuclear option" that I'd like to avoid. While I have everything backed up with titanium, I already am planning to flash back to stock when the official update comes out, so I'm looking to minimize the necessity to flash a ROM again.
I'm hoping that there is some "tried and true" way to swap out my email.apk with a working version, as the previous steps just result in a "Force Close" whenever I try and run it.
So the solution here, for anybody having this issue, is to remove the existing email.odex file from the /system/app directory, which was associated with the original Samsung email app.
All systems go here.
How do you remove the email.odex file? As it is in the system folder, the file permission is ready only and I cannot delete it. Is there a util in the market that you can download to change file permissions?
Root Explorer did the trick for me.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Does the phone needs to be rooted (my phone has the leaked froyo but do not think it is rooted) for the root explorer to be able to change the permission?
I download other free utils that has access to the file but cannot change the permission in order to delete it.
Yes, it does.

Rooting is the key to doing all "magic" stuff like this. What good is a wizard (user) without his magic wand (root access) to work on any magic (his captivate)?

Okay, I finally learn how to root the phone and was finally able to remove the existing email.odex file. Now I don't have the email icon anymore. I must assume you have replaced this email.odex file as well as the apk file??? I tried clearing the cache and everything on the twlauncher and it's a no go.

[Q] Fixing the "process.com.google.process.gapp" error message

After TRYING all kinds of suggestions, none of which work, I found one that says:
- copy all google talk service and google talk app to system/app folder
- Grant all possible privilages to them
- Restart the phone.
In what folder is google talk service and google talk app located?
How do you grant them "all privledges'?
Seems to me the last time I attempted to CUT AND PASTE a file to the system/app folder, it wouldn't let me.
This message has come up EVEN AFTER I have installed numerous ROMs.
I appreciate any help!
Did you flash stock in between flashes?. To move a file rlto system/app use adb or super manager
If I have helped press thanks.
Clean install of ROMs
Every time I flash, I go back to stock and do a Master Clear, so my flashes are clean. I use Titanium BU Pro to reinstall apps, BUT do NOT restore system data, just app data.
I'm thinking that the problem MIGHT be related to the syncing of my calendar with the google calendar I have online. Triied doing the data clear, etc....
Like I said, I've tried everything except what I posted in my first post. Problem is, I don't know where the files are located so that I can transfer them to the system folder. This seems like the only other "solution" I haven't tried at this point.
Hate to do it, but I'm thinking about going back to stock 2.2 and see if that makes a difference.

[SOLVED] Change default google account w/o hard reset

How do I change the linked google account of my phone.. I don't want to do a hard reset. I tried clearing the data of all the google apps, but that didn't help... m on froyo 2.2 ...xxkb3... any ideas?
Edit > issue solved, just rename the accounts.db in data/system to something else and reboot... The registration procedure will start again...
All credit to Jrhoop....

The first account set becomes the default account. You cannot change the default account without hard reset
I needed to do this and didnt want to do a hard reset so found a simpler way - i9000 but im sure it will be the same!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087496
Only thing i found was that the market didnt show installed apps because its a different account. But you can still search for the apps and then update them. Once you have done that they are linked to the new account.

I had observed that many a times when I applied a new theme I lost the google account and had to sign in again. Once, after applying a new theme, I signed in using a wrong account and of course no apps showed up in market. So I again copied Market (vending.apk) from this theme to /system/app and rebooted, but nothing changed. Then I copied settings.apk to /system/app but same result. Then in one go I copied "Contacts.apk", "DialerTabActivity.apk", "MMS.apk", "Settings.apk", "Vending.apk", "framework-res.apk" and "twframework-res.apk" to respective locations and on rebooting found that I had to sign in again. So it is definitely one of these files which caused the wrong account to be removed. If you have any of these original files or from a theme you like, just replace them and see.

I was also wondering about same.
For some reason data folder is shown to be empty.
Instead of tapping data ,type "/data/system" in explorer (I am using OI file manager
).
You will get where you want
Use root explorer... works pretty nicely.. simple and powerful...
Thank you.
Works every time. Thank you!

Its the framework-res.apk that links the accounts. If you change this on any ROM you will loose the google account. Back up the accounts.db in two locations on your phone:
/data/system/accounts.db
and another one somewhere I can't think of now? Its possibly in my bookmarks on my root explorer?

[Q] Contacts process force close after removing some bloatware

Would really appreciate some help.
Removed some bloatware via Titanium Backup, and of course, I got trigger happy.
process com.motorola.contacts (Contacts force closes)
process com.motorola.conversations (text messaging force closes)
So I have Root Explorer and got a hold of a system dump for Bionic.
I started by moving YahooContacts.apk (one of the apps I guess I shouldn't have uninstalled) back to the /system/app folder...but it doesn't show up anywhere as an installed app (just that the .apk was moved). If I try to actually select the .apk and try to install it says "Application did not Install" but the .apk IS moved.
Processes still don't work after moving.
I would appreciate any help, at this point I can't text or place calls. Thanks in advance, this forum helped me with the entire root process.
You cannot freeze/remove ANY of the other authenticator apps, it will cause contacts to freeze. I ran into that on the Droid 3.
First off there is no need to delete/remove, Freezing them accomplishes the same thing but most importantly it allows you to reverse what you have broken by Defrosting it. Do yourself a favor stop deleting and start freezing. If 16GB is not enough internal storage for you then you might consider an external HD from Seagate!!!!!!! LOL
I realize I made a big mistake. That's totally on me But it's in the past
Do I have any options to get this working again? I am definitely going to freeze apps in the future.
If I did delete an authenticator process, is there any way I can get those back? Would they be available through a system dump?
I believe that you need to make sure the permissions are correct after reinstalling an apk to the system/app folder. I've never done this, so I'll let you do the research. I've heard you can use root explorer to do this or a script with terminal emulator. Sorry I can't help more
I have the exact same problem, and am attempting to troubleshoot this issue on a different forum, however I am not allowed to post links but I'll try and keep you updated.
Edit: It's not a problem with permissions, I've made sure that they're correct with root explorer. It seems to be a Bionic-specific issue. I might just return it at this rate.
Thankfully, there's an unroot to use. I think im in the same boat. re-added all the yahoo related .apk and .odex and set permissions/owner, still nothing. Unroot and hope the Verizon dude is in a good mood!
Except now ADB is throwing "ERROR: ADB could not be granted root access" when trying to unroot
excellent.
Someone in the thread I was talking about had some success, its on droidforums dot net, droid bionic forum, bionic support, HELP! accidentally deleted IMSCServer from Droid Bionic thread. Maybe you can try something I haven't.
just do a factory reset thats what i had to do as I had the same problem.
I tried that, it didn't work... Did you actually get your system apps back? Did you do it through settings or the recovery menu?
i froze my bloat thats prob the difference and it was yahoo that caused the problem for me...

It really begs the question why anything with Yahoo is required by the system. Furthermore, why did they make it so frustratingly hard to reinstall system apps on the Bionic? Really disappointed in Motorola for this.
Here is the fix for Contacts, restore these files and set correct permission, reboot and presto Contacts fixed
That did it.. I have been looking for the YAHOO Contacts.apk file for 3 days with a bloody wortheless phone that I spent 300 shells on!
BTW I agree with Glimmerman, WHY DID YAHOO get involved in contacts? Talk about a sneaky way in integrate them.

answered my own question. I WAS newbtastic afterall. LOL. Thanks anyways. This did it. Dang Yahoo!
lol yep my girlfriend did this yesterday fortunately i have a bionic too so i just pulled the files from my phone and pushed to hers.

[GUIDE] How to fix Oculus System Activity Update issue.

After scratching and pulling my hair for weeks trying to educate my samsung s7 e some manner I came across the VR . Back when I was in stock it worked. But, now it stucked in the Oculus System Activity update loop. After couple of online guides I got frustrated and went to clean up my sd card. So, here is it :
If you are rooted get a recycle bin app or enable it in you file explorer if yours have one. Es file explorer has it , but I use dumpster.
Whenever you hit the update button oculus app downloads the system activity as a form of .apk and when it failed to install it, it deletes the apk. That's where the recycle bin apps comes in to action. Its, saved the deleted apk. in my case its in
/mnt/sdcard/Android/data/com.baloota.dumpster/files/.trash/ . Yours may vary depending on your apps.
Now what I did is I restored it and installed it like a normal apk please don't forgot to enable your "Unknown Source"
For non rooted user I am attaching the apk but I will not be responsible for your device as I don't know whether they are device specific or not.

Hit the thanks button if I helped
You are the BEST. Thanks man. I was getting crazy with this. I tried everything.
I still don't know where the problem comes from but at least I don't have to factory reset ??
Could you please post the files again? I've deleted the Facebook Installer and can't update the Oculus VR anymore. I've installed the Facebook app but the Installer part did't reinstall.
Please post the file again
Yes, could you please upload the file again... Dropbox show the file cannot be found.
