So here its what is happening I run the following commands adb pull /system/framework/lge_res.apk file pulls fine I replace the files I want replaced not really sure if I am editing the right folder out not more just trying to see what changes specifically I am trying to change my voice mail icon ok that goes fine so I run adb push lge_res.apk /system/framework goes through fine however after I reboot I lose all my contacts which is fine I can restore them just wondering why when I pull then push I am losing them.

Ok so I now know that the icon I want to change is in framework-res.apk but now after I replace the voicemail icon and try to push out back to system/framework it won't let me it is saying that it is read only any ideas? tried adb remount and I get remount failed unknown error: 0

Alright, easiest way is to download RevoBatteryMod.zip. Once downloaded open the zip file. Open system file, then framework file. There should be a framework-res.apk in there. Replace it with yours. Back out and rezip if you extracted (you don't have to though, you can just open it) Flash the new zip and ignore what it says through cwm. It will install it for you.
Thank you sir worked like magic!
Now I can finely get around to paying the mortgage

Btw it did let me adb push in recovery using the adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk out just didn't take the changes I made because of being read only I guess I don't see why I can't adb remount to get rw though I tried that in recovery also and still got the same error any thoughts on why I can't get the system to remount?

Hi danger rat. Im alittle new at this. How do I do that. And if I do what else will I lose?
Is there an original keyboard apk that I can just install?
Very much appreciated
If you don't know how to restore a backup, you probably didn't make one...
The keyboard has more than just the apk to it, so it's a bit more complicated than just switching the old apk back...
Ask in the keyboard thread, because I'm sure you're not the only one.

reflash the rom that you are using. and, since you are kinda new to this, ALWAYS make a nandroid backup in recovery. one da it WILL save your ass
...or you can do that, too. xD
Might wanna back up your apps and settings first, with Titanium backup.

Or save time and flashing just adb push old latinime and the lib.so back in and reboot.

Hi ilostchild. How do I go about doing that. Thanks everyone!
If you got android sdk installed you can do it . But if you don't its best to titanium back up everything you need and reflash your current rom
You can also do it with Root Explorer, or Terminal Emulator...

I was gonna say terminal but then I thought if he did it would probably fc soon as he did. Root explore would probably be the easiest way to go
I do have terminal and also sdk.
How would I go about it in terminal and or sdk? Thanks a bunch
Get a copy of your existing ROM.
Extract the following files:
LatinIME.apk
libjni_latinime.so
The apk goes in /system/app
The lib.so goes in /system/lib
You'll have to remove (rm) the existing files...
It will be far easier for you to do in Root Explorer.
Reboot when done.

Ok Sdk way
Adb shell
Su
#mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtd3block /system
#exit
Adb push latinime.apk /system/app
Then
Adb push lib.so /system/lib
Adb shell
Su
#reboot
And there you go got stock back..works both ways too if want to push gb kb
but to do this make sure Adb is in environment variable
If not gonna have to put all files in sdk folder where Adb is at

Not really have too when you push it overwrite existing but if yourself cautious then yea remove first then push. Root explore would be faster and easier

Stupid question....
Surely re flashing CM6.1 would restore to stock so to speak?
(I took a nandroid so no worries if it would not )
Can't it be as easy as someone giving me a .zip of the stock nexus kb and installing it from recovery?

Nandroid backups on the D3 aren't the fastest right now, but with a simple and quick tweak, we can make them much, much faster.
During the backup/restore, clockword recovery shows each individual file being copied. By turning this off, it drastically improves backup/restore times. It'll still say backup up /system, or /data, it just won't show the individual file. In order to remove the nandroid progress stats, you need to create two files using adb or terminal emulator.
ADB or Terminal Emulator​1) type- (may need to do "adb shell" first)
Code:
echo "" > /sdcard/clockworkmod/.hidenandroidprogress
Press enter
2) type
Code:
echo "" > /sdcard-ext/clockworkmod/.hidenandroidprogress
Press enter
3) Done!
Hint- to check to make sure it created the files, navigate to /sdcard/clockworkmod and see if there's a .hidenandroidprogress file. Also check in /sdcard-ext/clockworkmod for the same file.
Can't we just create the files manually instead of going through the trouble of using adb?
Yup. I used a terminal emulator on my phone since I didn't feel like taking the time to do it.

Thanks for this. I was wondering why backup/restore was so much slower on the D3 than on my OG Droid - synchronous IO strikes again.
FYI,
I removed the detailed progress bar from the upcoming Safestrap 1.0. The wait was just too long to even have that option enabled.
Excellent post, thanks a lot for sharing this tip.
Edit: I created both files and then rebooted into Recovery and started a backup. I still see each file being named as well as the progress bar. Did not seem to work for me...

You'll still see the actually progress bar. It just won't show each individual file. But that's weird. Ill see what I can find out.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
Definitely weird, I will delete the files and try to create them again to see if that helps. FYI, I used Android Terminal Emulator to create the files using the commands you posted.

Did it actually create the files? try using /mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod/,hidenandroidprogress

Wow, had a temporary lapse of reason earlier... Your typo of the comma in your last comment made me realize my own typo in typing /.hideandroidprogress instead of ./hidenandroidprogress . Backups are much, much faster now.
Huge difference!
I'm not sure if this is where I should post this but... When making a backup with CWM bootstrap(Not Safestrap) does it backup the /preinstall stuff too? I ask because I tried using the safestrap to flash a compatible rom and didnt backup and the rom wasnt functioning properly. I managed to recover back to my ogblur i was running prior but i wanted to know if my /preinstall was reverted and if not do I have anything to worry about with it not being how it was originally?

Running gingervolt 1.2, great rom, ran both oneclick root methods...zerglings etc...the esteem method says the phones been rooted. MT's method runs through the root procedure...then afterwards, I manually update superuser to 3.03, because niether of those methods will do that. Still when attempting to write a boot animation zip to the /system/media folder, I get the error "sytsem is read only"....
not sure if the root isn't taking....any help is greatly appreciated
What are you using to write the boot animation? Also, If you are using Root Explorer make sure you mount /system R/W. I believe it is in the top right corner. I've never used it :/ Just heard from people with it

You have root. Make sure you mount the system folder as read/write (R/W) before you try to change anything. It defaults as read only. If you're using Root Explorer it's in the upper right corner.
