UPDATED Dark gmail-you asked for it i found it

Dark Gmail FOUND Version 2.3.2 (http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-themes/104950-inverted-2-3-2-gmail-test-release.html) I pulled the apk from the update zip from the link (dont want to take any chances flashing it)

EDIT if having issues
go into recovery, and mounting both /system/ and /data/
Remove old gmail
adb shell
rm /system/app/gmail.apk
rm /system/app/gmail.odex

adb push Gmail.apk /system/app/

Blacks are so sexy on this phone, beyond just looking great(where's the screen, where's the casing, I don't know!) and the power savings.

Hmm this is odd, I'm having issues.
ADB Push is giving me permission denied.
I also have Root Explorer and made sure /system/app is read/write access.
I also tried using Root Explorer to move the gmail.apk to /system/app and rebooting several times and nothing. Gmail app won't start at all.
Also tapping on gmail.apk to try to install it to /system/data gives a, "installation not succeed"
I have root working just fine, do I need to install the unsecure boot image?

hmm. Make sure your root is secure. denied on adb push sounds like a root issue to me

Try adb remount

Okay so I followed the steps, except I just did it with root explorer since I don't have a computer by me. The new gmail.apk just kept saying that it would not install so I put the old one back, and now that one won't install either. Help please?

Definately would work with a pc and adb. but glad your back to normal for now. let me know how it turns out with the pc

Yeah this is weird. Before I had to do it in recovery and adb push, and it worked.
Now with the updated gmail i tried that, and it won't push, i move it with root explorer, rebooted, and gmail isn't detected.
keeps giving me permission denied again.
I think we need an updated root.

Fixed it again by going to recovery, and mounting both /system/ and /data/ then the adb push worked (while in recovery) now gmail is detected and works.

[Q] Market won't recognize sideloaded apps

It seems that since updating to the AT&T 2.2 Froyo update and rooting the market will not recognize any side loaded apps that have been added to the phone since upgrading to 2.2. All apps that I side loaded on 2.1 are recognized and can be updated but nothing on 2.2. Anyone else have this problem and if so have you been able to fix this issue?
I used SuperOneClick to root the phone and did a reboot the phone afterward to allow side loading of apps and it is working. I am still using the adb install command to side load all my apps, is this wrong?
If this is something that is not to be discussed I apologize now.

Well I don't have a direct answer to your question but since you are rooted I highly suggest you go and get Titanium Backup along with atrackdog.
The former application will alloa you to backup any applications you want (or aall of them) and then save them to your computer. you can then move the folder to any phone and use Titanium to reinstall the applications exactly where you left off. That means launchers will have the same layouts and games will still have their save states.
The latter will allow you to check the update status of those applications since they won't show up as downloaded applications from the market.

Titanium Backup has been installed since rooted on 2.1 but will have to check out atrackdog. Thanks for the help so far.

side loaded paid apps will NEVER show in market.
free ones can be restored...
tibu has never been able to restore market links for me either.
there used to be a program MCleaner but it got taken off the market..
but all it did was this (do it yourself)
Menu button > Settings > Applications > Manage Apps > All > Market
- force stop
- clear data
- clear cache (if availavle)
restart market > my apps

Actually, it does. Market only keeps track of the apps you buy/download through it. What you're asking is like expecting Wal-Mart to know what you bought from Target.

Hey guys I just had a question while reading through the replies.
I downloaded atrakdog and got a list of all the apps needed to be updated.
One of the apps was the market..
Mine is version 2.3.4
I need to update to 5.0.12
How do you update market? Btw I'm running cm7 does this effect it?
Sent from my phone

Market should update automatically. As far as the sideload apps you can. Also get root explorer and copy paste them to system/app then reboot and they'll all be there.

So your are saying instead of using adb installer just do a drop and drag to the system/app folder and install them that way? Now will that put them in the market place? I don't quite understand what you are really saying here. Excuse my ignorance.

That's exactly what I was thinking was moving the file to the system/app file then reinstalling the .apk first then doing the 3 button reboot to see if it would recognize the app on the market. I did try just a 3 button reboot after side loading a few apps using ADB Installer and just doing the normal drop and drag to the sim card and I know that doesn't recognize them. I am going to try and reinstall one of my apps that way and I will let you know if it shows up or not.

When trying to move a new .apk file to the system/app file it says "You cannot paste here because the file system is a read-only."

You have to click the small window at the top of the screen in root explorer that changes r/o to r/w. You have to do that in each directory you want to edit.

It will say application not installed. You just have to put it in \system\app, fix the permissions and reboot.
You don't have to install it like other apps.

I am posting the deleted apps zip in the slim thread right now, sorry for the delay. You will probably have to use a root explorer and put applicationmanager.apk into the /system/app folder and you may have to restart afterwards

I'm not sure .it just worked on mine right out the gate. I guess u successfully copied both files to the phone. I actually had to put the voicemail app in data /app for some reason. It wouldn't show up in system /app. I kept the vvm file in system /app tho. Try moving the voicemail to data

Thanks so much I've been waiting looking for this for so long.

ok here is what I would do
http://androidcommander.com
download this file, connect your phone with adb debugging enabled. This program will find your device, from there you can open an extracted rom browse the rom until you find the HTC TV app and install it as a system app,
I did this for my evo 3d when devs took out the 3d widgets I used.

no if you double click the apk file for HTCTV another window will open, when you click install a third window will open and the last option is install as a system app, select that one and click install
this will chmod the app file as 777 allowing it be executed. I think your system is not set as rw and only as ro.

Neat app. Followed the instructions went exactly as you described, install was "successful" but nothing shows up in my app drawer. Rebooted to see if that would fix, still no dice. Im beginning to think downloading the full rom will be the best idea. If i do, would i need to wipe? I know i should wipe if going to a different rom but in this its the same rom.
