How to reinstall com.amazon.mp3.apk... Solved But????

Hello,
i've flashed the last CM build, all is OK but MP3 Store disappear from Menu. The app is installed (the app is in appmanager into Dream) but no icon....
I've try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514038
but adb says:
D:\Personal Device\Android\ROOTING\asdk1.6\tools>adb install com.amazon.mp3.apk
1088 KB/s (245174 bytes in 0.220s)
pkg: /data/local/tmp/com.amazon.mp3.apk
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_ALREADY_EXISTS]
any ideas?

I've try and this is the result:
D:\temp\DD\droid\asdk\tools>adb install -r com.amazon.mp3.apk
933 KB/s (268976 bytes in 0.281s)
pkg: /data/local/tmp/com.amazon.mp3.apk
Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_INCONSISTENT_CERTIFICATES]
In /system/app there is already com.amazon.mp3.apk, but no icon in Menu.....
Another suggestion?
TIA
Idk

Ok, now i have the MP3 Store icon back.
To do this (the app is already installed) i must modify the value of:
name="launcher_has_been_visible"
from "false" to "true" into
./data/data/com.amazon.mp3/shared_prefs/com.amazon.mp3_preferences.xml
the icon is come back.
But..... when i start the MP3 Store, the app tell me that can only work in US FR DE, not in IT.
I've used (some CMrom ago) the app to download free sample, so why now i can't do the same? There is a workaround to do this?

You'll need to install the android sdk and set it up(there is a guide here though I don't remember where exactly). Once you do open a command prompt and type cmd. Then use cd C:\"wherever my android sdk is located"\ platform-tools
Put the youtube apk here too btw.
Then type
adb mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
adb push Youtube.apk /system/app
adb reboot
once it reboots youtube should be installed.
There may be a simpler way (I'd presume there is) but this is the only way I know how to do it

I have a link to EVO's "HQ YouTube" apk in my blog fineoils.blogspot.com. If your NC is not on Froyo of any flavour, it works like a charm: smooth in scaling out any 1080p clips/movies. Couldn't make 'flash10.1 for 2.1" work though, so many embedded movies may be played only by other players -- for now.
Use adb to install.
Enjoy and comment on your success.

How do i know if i have froyo???

if you ask big chance you don't have it

Ok so i fixed the problem, but im not sure how! All i did was go to book tools, unchecked allow non market apps, then checked it again, rebooted and tried redownloading with astro, and it worked!!! I GUESS SOMETIMES THE SIMPLEST FIXES HAVE THE GREATEST IMPACT!

[Q] Remove Android Market App - Yes, seriously!

OK, sounds like the most stupid question ever, but is there a way to remove the google android market from the vegan 5.1 build? I've tried the obvious (i.e uninstall through app manager) but it's greyed out.
I know most people are desperate to get the market app on and working, but I need it removed
Any ideas...? Thanks

Can't see why but...
From pc
adb remount
adb rm /system/app/Vending.apk
adb reboot
Or in shell
#su
#cd /system/data
#rm Vending.apk
#reboot

hey
i am maybe the bigest noob in developing in android. but where do i put those commands on my pc?

Easiest way to do it is to download a root browser from the market or sideload it. Open root browser. Go ti root. System. Data. Apps. Delete vending.apk.

Yes, you will need to be rooted to remove System apps.

Where is the apk file downloaded from Google play stored

I have a question. You download an app from google play store to your device. And it fails to install due to device incompatibility or certificate error.
So where is the downloaded apk file stored in the device. Like in windows we have a temp folder, do we have a temp folder where the apk file is stored temporarily?

No not that, I can't see any Idmtemp folder. It must be an app that you installed that created that.

Don't you think that if there is a compatibility error or incompatibility then it'll straight away not install or not even show as available for your device... Can't say anything about certificate error

open your rootexplorer and go to /cache/download
there was the Google play storing the downloaded files..

It is a useful one, thanks

hello camrades
For this purpose, I use the Quick System Info (in Google Play)
It allows you to export to a SD card already installed in any way the application
Search on the SD card in the catalog /backups/user/...

In my case they seem to be under /mnt/asec
But there is one I can't find. Google's Music Player, the one you use when playing music you have stored in Google's Cloud.

Root /data/app is my 2 cent...

Here's yet another answer
I just tried to download an app from google play -- 50 megs -- and the app successfully downloaded, but the install failed because I didn't have sufficient memory. But I had still lost 50 megs of phone storage space :-/ which I eventually traced back to /data/cache/ ; there was a 50-meg file in there called downloadfile.apk .

yup its right ....
but usually playstore deleted automatically...
except that files doesnt finish install... so it could be wrong phrase :silly:

if yours download temp doesn't deleted automatically try this.
create new file without extension example "04mountdl" and put this script.
#!/system/bin/sh
CACHESIZE=$(df -k /cache | tail -n1 | tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f2)
DATAONLY=$(getprop dalvik.vm.dexopt-data-only)
if [ "$DATAONLY" = "1" ]
then
NEEDED=60000
else
NEEDED=105000
fi
if [ $CACHESIZE -lt $NEEDED ]
then
mount -o bind /data/local/download /cache/download
fi
rm /cache/download/downloadfile*.apk >/dev/null 2>&1
exit 0
save file and copy to /system/etc/init.d folder.

Helpful post! But my phone (neo v) does not seem to have /cache/download directory!
It seems that this vares from rom to rom.
I thought that, the Playstore app uses /data/local to temporarily store .apk files while downloading, then installs them from there, and finally removes the temporary download-file (which then goes to /data/app).

Check /mnt/asec its usually there for some phones. I think its the way some mobile phones allocate and handle memory that affects, maybe the rom also affects.
Cheers.

its useful

Thank You
Looks like I'm Having a similar issue with a different device it seems like the device can't extract/copy the temp file to the correct location from the temp folder and the Install fails Leaving you with a drive full of cache files I'll continue looking and let anyone know anything useful I find

Just the apps you're trying to install.
All the apps listed in your phone's Google Play can be installed and should work fine (with a few exceptions, mostly some of the more demanding games, but that's not too frequent and comments usually point it out).
Accessing Google Play from your PC will not filter the apps, but you can still find which apps are compatible if you're logged in to your google account.
