[Q] Uninstalled Browser on LG Optimus M - LG Optimus 2x

I rooted my phone and, like an idiot, I uninstalled my browser. So of course now my market is not working. I have tried ADB to try and push the app on the phone, but it's not working. Can anyone help me get my browser back on or just get my market to work?

Someone actually walked me through that last night. I did get my browser back (yay!), but some of my buttons aren't working correctly and I can't move apps to my SD card because the phone crashes.

[Q] help! accidently deleted some system files. cant download market apps

have a g1 running 1.6 dmd64
So I rooted my new g1 through androot method, tried to do some stuff to get a rom, but it said I wasnt fully rooted.. and this is over a month or so time so there were reboots throughout the process, so I tried installing busybox, it said I didnt have enough space in my /system/ folder.. so I read online that its okay to delete some files in /system/apps so I delted the files com.amazon.mp3.apk, im.apk,
improvider -1.apk, gtalkservice.apk, im.odex, improvider.apk, and talk.apk
so installing apps from the market worked for a while. then I rebooted yesterday and whenever I tried to download it got stuck at starting download. at that time google talk and im werent showing up under my apps list. so I tried putting those files back in the system/apps folder, reboot, stilll doesnt work. now I do a wipe of the phone through recovery mode and i'm still have the same problem.. except I have all the default google apps except those that I uninstalled, cant download any others, and cant get any off my sd card because I need a file manager from the market in order to do that.
so is there any way to fix this or am I screwed..? please help!

GtalkService is an iffy one. If you delete GTalkService and GTalk, downloads WILL get stuck at Starting Download. You're gonna have to find this APK again, probably within a GAPPS package, and re-install it to get downloads to work again.
thanks. I just flashed back to 1.6 that I found online

I am running Andromeda 1.1 (Froyo 2.2 from Armani Cap) and the music player sucks balls compared to the one I had with Eclair JH7. Anyone got the apk for that player? I really liked the carousel view in landscape mode. Thanks.
Sure. Let me get it for you in a sec. Hold tight.
EDIT: Here you go - Musicplayer.apk
Thanks, man, much appreciated.
Just tried installing this and I get a message saying this is a system app and am I sure I want to replace it. I click yes, it starts to install then I get a failed to install message. Do I need to uninstall the stock player first? I can't believe how crappy the Froyo player is compared to the Eclair one.

It will always fail if you just try and install it. You have to use a file manager like root explorer and place it in system/app and it will work just fine. You can not overwrite a system app that easy most of the time.

Hmmm....I copied this apk and the MediaHub apk into the same folder (Downloads) on the device. MediaHub installed fine. I'll try your method, but how will it create an icon in TouchWiz by just putting it into that folder?
It will overwrite the previous version. If it doesn't work for you right away, do a reboot and you should be good.
I said yes to overwriting, but it still fails. I went and purchased root explorer, moved the apk to data/app, but I have no way to start the app because there's no icon in the app drawer for it. Rebooted several times. If I go into Settings>Application>Manage Applications and click on ALL I see Sound Player in the list with the familiar icon I remember, but all the options for it are grayed out.

refer to above quote...it's a system app so you need to copy it to /system/app not /data/app
Doh! <fp> Worked like a charm. Thanks! Don't know why the Froyo Music Player is so lame. The Eclair player has built-in EQ, disc view, 5.1 sim with wired headphones and a much better GUI. Go figure.

[Q] Missing Dialer 2.2.2 (phone.apk i think?)

Hi
I accidently removed dialer 2.2.2 from the device using Titanium Backup, and i need to restore it in order for my phone calls to work.
I tried downloading some froyo Phone.apk but i cant install. It stops fast and syas "Application not installed" when i click it.
I put it in /system/app/ using adb. I didnt work either to install it through adb. It said cannot find file.
I need a original copy of Phone.apk and maybe some explanation of how to install it as it were before i removed it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960374 has a complete dump of 2X global version. You can find the dialer in there.
There are several threads about the joys of reinstalling system apps (usually ppl killed the launcher) among them are http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=992945
EDIT: next time freez in stead of uninstalling... frozen apps will be restored by a simple factory reset. uninstalled won't.
Thx I am downloading and hoping it will work with the original Phone.apk

it should work.
I downloaded the package and pushed the Phone.lnk to the /system/app/ directory. After that i went to a file browser on the phone and tried to execute the Phone.apk file.
It came with the same message. Do i need to install through adb or hard reset?

You don't need to install apk when putting in /system/app.
Copy apk to sd, download and install rootexplorer copy apk forom sd with rootexplorer go to system/app push button “mount R/W“ paste apk and reboot the phone. Done
Well isnt that the same as using adb.
I have the Phone.apk from the optimus 2x dump in the /system/app/ folder now, but i doesnt fix the problem. It doesnt seem to get installed when rebooting.
How can i see if its installed. I checked Titanium Backup, which still shows the Dialer 2.2.2 grey with strike-through (Data backed up, with no possiblity of restore).
How do i force it to "reinstall" upon reboot.
I tried restoring a widget that i removed, and that worked, so maybe the phone.apk is installed after i pushed it to /system/app, but something else is wrong.
What could be the problem? Missing data or something, which i need to restore somehow?
Isn't there a way to reflash the device with original rom?
Any ideas?
I downloaded the Global System.zip from this forum. I successfully went to the android recovery menu on the phone. I can choose to update the phone using System.zip on sdcard.
Is that the way to go?
have solved the problem?
Is possible to edit the phone.apk? the stock "incall" app is simple orrrrrrible
i too am missing my dialer app. whenever i touched the phone icon it would crash and go to home screen i thought if i uninstalled it and reinstalled it with titanium pro it would fix it. but it now wolnt let me reinstall. ive been searching the forum and trying different ways to fix the issue but nothing is working so far ... how can i get this is work?

Did you guys figure this out? I installed

[Q] Installing an apk w/out market

In the ongoing battle to not have the market crash on launch (rooted stock 1.3 running 4.6.16 and I fixed permissions with ROM manager) I've noticed that titanium backup seems to be a start for a few potential fixes. That said - I have to actually install the bloody thing and w/out market access that's proving tough.
I d'loaded the apk via. the built-in browser. It's on my SD card. But I can't seem to find any way for the built-in app-laucher to....well, launch. When I run the apk's from the browser I get 2 options:
Complete action (running apk) using:
* App Installer (which when clicked says it's unable to install and that I should archive then unarchive the app and try again)
* Package installer (which says there's a prob. parsing the package).
I've got what I assume to be non-market app's checked off in NC Tools (it's the blank box in NC Tools with nothing next to it that people talk about).
Any suggestions to get the bloody apk working?
Sounds like a badly packaged .apk. It also has that error whenever I try to install Honeycomb specific apps.

Did you enable non-market installs?
Do as Dizzy said or find another apk to install, if it keep crashing then try install some another ROM like CM7.

In the NC tools I do have what is supposed to be the non-market installs checked off (but with it being a blank box of text next to it, I'm not positive).
I guess it might be a bad apk, but I got it from the TB site directly. I tried ES File Explorer too. It would seem all apk's I'ev tried give the same error. I'm not sure if maybe B&N somehow hobbled the ability to install apk's with their 1.3 update.

I had CM7 on for a few days, but with the market not working well on it (market determined that the nook wasn't compatible with any of the apps, even with the LCD resize), and with a subscription to PC mag via. B&N I went back to stock rooted 1.3.
Any other suggestions? I was thinknig of trying MIUI if things in CM7 or the Nootered stock don't resolve themselves.

MIUI is just a themed outdated cm7. I don't see how that would help.
Can you get any .apks to install?
Sent from my LG Optimus V using Tapatalk
I just finished the Android SDK/Java route to push apk's to the NC. I've successfully installed Titanium, ES File explorer, Opera Mobile and SwiFTP to my NC via the SDK route. While I don't have market access, I guess it will be ok for now....I sure wish the Market worked properly though....nice 'n convenient. Ah well.
[EDIT] One thing I did try to get the market to work was uninstall Flash 10.3. I put on 10.2 & reset permissions. No dice for what it's worth....if somebody's keeping a list of things that don't work.

Interestingly, if I try to use the default browser to install appbrain (www.appbrain.com/install), or even Opera mobile to install it, .... it results in a flash screen (rotating flash dots in the middle) that crashes after a second....just like when I (attempt to) launch the Market.

[Q] help, cant instal apks anymore

recently i tried to instal some apk files using astro or es, the file open up as normal until when i try to click on the instal button, it didn't react but the cancel button does, i had quite a number of apk files saved in my sdscard which worked previously but now none of them works. i looked into application setting for the box to checked to allow installation from unknown source checked but still the same. just upgraded to 2.3.5, hope this not the reason.
I'm not sure why they won't install but let me say this: about 3/4 of the apks available on the Pirate Bay are malicious.
Anything else weird going on with the phone?
Can you successfully uninstall an application?
i find wierd too, btw, those apks are not pirated, some are download from this forum which i had kept very long for future when i change phone like circular battery, simi folders when they are posted here long time ago which not yet out in the market at that time. of course now i dont need them anymore but just for testing purposes. i tried uninstal these few and instal back using the apk thru esfile and astro but no veil, help needed, tks...
i suspect that the system had disable the instal button whereas the cancel still works, dont what had cause it
