good luck next time if you want say thx klick the Thanks button

pressed the button

easiest way :
- get root and cwm
- mod your system
- do a full nandroid backup, then share it as your cooked rom (without personal datas of course)

I don't know if this is simple as that, but if you remove the data dir, you'll have to integrate all of extra-apps in /system/app dir.

so could i put delete lg home and put go launcher then??

does anyone know how to edit lib files and change permissions because i want to add a new launcher

Starting with the most basic...
Did you wipe before the flash?
If so.
Have to tried pushing wlan.ko manually?
yea i wipe everytime i install a new rom ... do i input that threw adb or can i do it on terminal ?

Click to collapse
either. Extract wlan.ko from whatever ROM you're trying to use (just extract the whole update.zip into a folder and use windows to search for that specific file. Should be located under /system/modules/ or /system/lib or something like that. Once you find it, push it to the respective location on your /system/ folder or copy it to your sdcard and use the terminal commands to copy it over. Once you've done that, try the WiFi again.
In before "how do I do that?": We have a guide specifically for adb/terminal commands.
EDIT: ok, its not under /system/lib or modules its under /system/bin/a2sd
cool thanks ill give it a try once i get home.

you can write a script/batch file. Here's mine for linux, you could modify it for your needs or rewrite it as a batch file for windows. This one uses zenity for graphical popup so I can just right click apk(s) in my file browser.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
SUCCESS=
Loc=/usr/local/lib/android/tools/
(
for arg
do
adb install -r $arg
SUCCESS=$?
if [ $SUCCESS -eq 1 ]
then
zenity --info --title "INSTALL APK" --text "INSTALL FAILED! \n`cat /tmp/signTmp`"
exit 1
fi
done
)|
zenity --progress --title="Install APK" --text="Installing apk(s)" --pulsate
TY for replying! im a noob when it comes to linux. can you dumb it down for me? Thanks again.
I'm looking into scripts for few days and wanted to write something like this which will be installing from terminal app (on the phone) all apks in specified folder. It seems that I don't know too much about Linux because I barely understand few commands (even if I know some C++).
I would be very grateful if you could explain command by command . Few words about each will be OK, just to know what everything does.

Yup, lol was just about to recommend that, no one seems to check magic forums lol.
Anyway, u cud also use apk manager if u need something that does a lil more than just installing apks Its the same way, just drag and drop onto the script or set it as ur default application for apks in which case when u double click an apk it'll install it.
Edit : Almost forgot, WRONG SECTION

[Q] Deleted LG-home, no backup.. now what?

First post! So hello,
I made a big screwup. First i rooted my lg-p990, next i deleted lg-home using Titatium Free. I did not backup my file. Also i never installed a new homescreen.
When finishing this action, the phone didnt respond anymore. Now it wont restart. It is still possible to connect to pc and view sd cards. Also it will restart bringing the installation sequence, but when finishing it, the phone stops responding again.
I realise i havent been very smart. But does anybody have a solution?
Im guessing you will have to push the apk through adb.... but as i have limited knowledge on this i would wait until someone more experienced gives you help!

Short answer for you:
1) Download my attachement
2) Rename it from .zip to .apk
3) Put in adb folder
4) Run:
adb remount
adb push LGLauncher.apk /system/app/
adb reboot
doesn't pushing apks to system/app require root? Correct me if I'm wrong

My next problem is that i dont know how to operate adb. I've got android sdk installed, but cant find how to work with adb.. What to do?
-edit-
I did some more research, and i cant use the commandline to acces :\android-sdk-windows\tool. This path doesn excist. Neither am i sure if USB-debugging is activated on the phone. I cannot acces the phones menu, so i cannot check..
what to do....

There are a few problems:
First is that there is no adb map to be found. Second is that when i for example enter the command "adb remount" my system doesnt recognise the command..
Thanks for your efforts though
Well. You rooted the phone. So usb debugging is enabled. It has to be for super one click to work.
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA Premium App
Try that
Go to C:/Windows/System32
Copy cmd.exe
Paste it in SDK folder, where the ADB.exe is
Than enter my commands

Okee, i must sound liek a real noob. I cannot find this SDK folder and the only file that i can find that relates to adb is adb_usb.exe..
i know that i am a real pain in the ass
If you manage to get a working adb connection the commands you need to execute are. Please make sure that the phone is unlocked when typing su (you will get a su access prompt on the phone and need to press allow)
adb push LGLauncher.apk /sdcard/
adb shell
su
busybox mount -o,remount -rw /system
stop
cp /sdcard/LGLauncher.apk /system/app/
reboot
problem solve
E-mail download link of the LGhomeLaunger.apk
Download on you phone and install.
It works as new!
Ok i solved the problem, thanks for thinking along with me..
It seemed i could still recieve emails, so i just sent the lghome.apk as a downloadlink true email..
it worked!
i guess sometimes solutions are not always as dificult!

well...
that is not a permanent fix.
when you install that way it is only installed in user space... If you ever factory reset the phone you will be stuck without a launcher again... and probably no way to config ur email :-(
you need to put the launcher apk file on your sd card... and then copy it to the /system/app folder using root explorer.
If you do this it will be fixed even after a factory reset...
anyway. Next time just freez apps. Dont uninstall them. If they are only frozen you can allways factory reset to get them back.

[REQ] System Dump

Seeing as root has already been achieved, can someone please post a system dump of their Bionic please...
Thanks!
tell me how and i can help, i deleted the dam bloat at least some
I don't know what you consider "bloat", but just as long as you didn't delete any core Motorola files, connect via adb and issue the following commands:
adb shell
su
busybox tar czvf /sdcard/systemdump.tgz /system
exit
exit
adb pull /sdcard/systemdump.tgz
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There's you go, a system dump.
If you can somehow get everything back to stock and just rooted, a complete system dump would be better...

did a system dump followed these instructions
The easiest way, I think, would be:
install the android SDK (developers.android.com)
start CMD
type in "cd c:\PATH_TO_YOUR_SDK\tools (<-- so there's a tools folder inside the sdk folder)
on your phone: Setting -> Applications -> Developer -> USB Debug Mode (dunno how its spelled correctly)
connect your phone with your pc
let windows find your phone
back to cmd console: adb pull /system
the full system dump shall be in YOUR_SDK_FOLDER\tools\system
but i go to my sdk folder / tools but there is no system folder ???? help
or at least tell me what file in there you need
I had made a backup of "My Accounts 2.3.4" before deleting and to my displeasure I realized it was tied into the actual Setup menu. I attempted to restore but it seems to be on an endless loop. Fortunately I had already finished all my account syncs but it would be nice to be able to fix this problem. Suggestions or am I SOL for the time being?
The app package "com.motorola.blur.setup"
Oh, by loop I meant Titanium Backup. Everything is working a ok. Just wondering if there was something I missed.
hey i am a total noob when it comes to the bionic coming from my dinc. what is the easiest way to delete the stock apps that come on my bionic that are taking up at least half of my internal memory. pretty pissed to get the phone home and find out i only have like seven or so gbs of memory on the phone so whats the easiest way to delete bloatware. help me out thanks a ton.
Try the commands I posted...
And unfortunately, I need everything in /system
Thanks!

I thought P3droid did a system dump, but that might have been the pre-release BIONIC.
http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/...id-bionic-system-dumps-partial.html#post99195
I pulled a system dump using the adb instructions.
I'm rooted and have installed a few root apps, but I haven't deleted any apps other than the golf game which did not require root to delete.
Here's the file, 228.5MB.

Several people have been having this same problem attempting to restore system apps. Eagerly waiting for someone to figure out a solution. In the meantime, do NOT rely on backups of your system apps.

Are your comments related to the LG G4? I don't understand the connection between your Boost Mobile LG Stylo 2, and the Sprint LG G4 discussion?
WoW
The directions pointed me to the right direction, no mention of HOW I found a download link, nor the fact a gui screen for username/password would be involved. Lets see, yeah also the fact using admin in username with nothing in password field GOT THE download....
Do you see a link posted for ny firmware?
Details like these being shared can, NO DO make the difference for others especially in a situation of having a device bricked...
But all your interested in is trying to point out something like your THE MODERATOR ON XDA & what? Didn't take the time to [email protected] your "thanks" meter but giving this poor attitude your exhibiting its probably 0....
Go figure
