So, first post here because I can't seem to find the solution (as I normally can)... but, I was using the CM App installer that allows you to install some CM apps on any ROM, and it crashed in process and my messaging app was deleted. I use Sliding Messenger, but it won't send MMS now. How can I get the stock app back?

Go to the development tread and there are system dumps for the different carriers. Download the Mms.apk and the Mms.odex
Push them into the system/app folder
Sent from my XT1058 using xda app-developers app
I already got the system dump, but I don't know how to "push" it through. I assume it's with adb but I've never had to go that route. If someone could easily direct me the process for that, it would be great! (I will still be searching on my own too)

I used root explorer but I'm rooted.

I read up on it last night and that's how I attempted it. I was successful at pushing the app into system/app and then install it, but it would just force close immediately after opening. I'll keep digging to see what else I can do

change the write permission using root explorer or es file explorer. click on it or long press and go to more in es file explorer. then click on properties.. change it to -rw -r -r like the rest of the system apk and odex files. This should fix your problem.

I've never heard of this bug nor had any problems with MMS
If you're having problems with mms try clearing out the telephony database
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
rm /data/data/com.*.*.telephony/databases/telephony.db
adb reboot
Can u give me a little step by step please? I really just know the basics on this phone thanks

Acutally seeing as the majority of rooted people probably just use the 'one click' apps it'd be easier to do this via Terminal Emulator.
Download Termial Emulator if you don't already have it on your phone
Open up terminal emulator
Then type out the following code box (at the end of each line you press 'Enter')
Code:
su
rm /data/data/com.*.*.telephony/databases/telephony.db
reboot

The location should exist...unless it was typed incorrectly or you have an incomplete flash /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ should definitely be there.
If you have root explorer or estrongs files explorer with root access you can navigate to that location and delete using those apps too. Rebooting will rebuild the telephony.db file after its deleted.
If you still are having problems trying to find the database file send me a PM and I'll help you out when I can on gtalk.
Edit: Do this, open up terminal emulator and enter these lines in
Code:
su
cd /data/data/com.*.*.telephony/databases
ls
You should get a return line saying
Code:
mmssms.db telephony.db
And then reboot phone?

If you're referring to my previous post where you navigate to the directory and enter "ls" to list the files in that directory, then no. Thats just to see if the files are indeed there.
If they are, then you should do that "rm" command I posted before where you delete the telephony.db
If they both weren't there, even after a reboot, then as I said before - either the command wasn't typed in correctly, or the flash was incomplete.
Post what the 'ls' command returned to you after entering it in (ie. mmssms.db and/or telephony.db)
Its telling me not found after I enter "telephony databases"

Certain mms types will not work unless you're on a stock based rom. I believe it is the slideshows that are the problem.

Hi guys I did something dumb last night as I was tired and not thinking. I installed the new market (vending.apk) on my Xoom and quickly realized its for phones only
Anyone have a link to the stock vending.apk ?
I thought you could go into manage applications, find market and click uninstall updates.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA Premium App
I tried the same with same result
Could not get the app back, even with TB. Honeycomb-market consists of 2 files: vending.apk and finsky.apk. Finally I had to rip the files from out of the file "system.img" (part of the AU-Telstra-FW) by using "unyaffs", copied them back to "/system/app" and set the permissions to "rw-r-r". APKs from Tiamat-ROM didn't work, tried that first w/o success...
I could upload them to my Dropbox, but i'm not sure if they'll work for you...
Edit:
Uploaded mine: http://db.tt/cTCSrkb
To replace them in the file system you have your Xoom to be rooted.

Let me know if it works

Hi there. After deleting the clock app from my note I have been sent the apk again to reinstall. However aftrr pushing file into system/app i cannot get it to install and it does not show up in app drawer. I have permissions set at RW R R but still nothing.
Am I doing something wrong? All help appreciated.

Bit more info on this. I am on LQ2 with Root and standard kernel.
Only thing i havent done that I can think of is to simply reload LQ2 and start again but this seems a bit much for the sake of an alarm clock. I have installed a basic clock from market but i much predfered the stock clock.

Haven't you got a backup which includes the clock? Always do backups with titanium backup before removing system apps.
In case you got titanium backup pm me your email address and I will send you my backup of the clock. I think this is the simplest way.

Yeah i realise now that i should have done a back up but i deleted the wrong app whilst i was cleaning up and didnt realise till later.

Did you reboot after pushing the apk and setting permissions? It has to be done for changes to take effect.
Yeah rebooted and cleared davlik cache as well.
I think the problem might be that there is still parts of the alarm or clock app left in the the registry or system/app folder but I cant find them. For time being i downloaded a copy of the Clock app from tge Nexus and it works fine.

Sending you titanium backup of clock, place it to titanium backup folder and restore it.
Check PM after some time.

Ok so tried to do a backup and titanium says its reinstalling app but just stays at that sort of buffering circle for as long as i care to leave the phone to run. In titanium the backup shows being available for backup with the smiley face etc. I can see titanium getting su access etc as well but just not reinstalling.
Might need to admit defeat lol.

Having installed a custom ROM (carbon) as much as i love the rom it doesn't come with Xperia Link.
As i have an Xperia tablet Z it would be really useful.
I have tried backing up the APK with Astro but when i tried to install it on my new rom it just refuses to install saying "App not installed" Just to make it clear it's the Xperia Link phone lient i want. Any suggestions?
Try to install it from playstore.

Still no joy, Just to make sure i did the right thing... i copied the file to System/App using root browser then long click, permissions and on owner tick read, write & exectable rebooted then tried to install? It still said "app did not install"
You should not install,it will show up with the applications or in the settings(i don't remember)if it's working.

No still no joy. Cuiously though the astro backed up apk is called "com.sonymobile.xperialink-1.apk"
But when i looked in System/Apps on the stock rom no such app exists only "SomcXperiaLink.apk" When i try to copy, move or archive that file it fails even after a force stop.
Hope this helps thanks for your help so far.

I just tried that, got the .apk from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2690997 it installs fine, but the app FC's all over the place and uninstalls itself after reboot. The thread says to move it to system/app or priv-app, but we can't do that because there is no root yet for NC2

I was thinking, its definitely going to be tough to get it into /system/app without mounting it RW (root necessary). This is just a thought, would an update.zip containing the apk be able to be flashed in the stock recovery?

I think stock recovery has an option to flash an "update.zip". What happens if it goes wrong? I have no idea. I've never had to install a system app without root, I'm just trying to think of something that might work. I mean root browsers and adb are ruled out. Other than flashing, I don't know of many other ways to get an app in there. >.<
