[Q] Accidentally Deleted Facebook.apk.. Help me?

yea I was trying to update my facebook app in the market, but it wouldn't update. so I thought it was my custom rom. I backed up the apk in titanium backup and uninstalled it (i know i'm an idiot). I then went back to market, but facebook still won't install. and titanium didn't backup facebook.apk properly. Now I don't have a facebook app.. any help would be appreciated, such as givingme the file.

You have custom ROM, right?
Download it again, if you don't have it, and extract the Facebook app from there (/system/app).
In the meantime, reboot to recovery, wipe Dalvik-cache, and boot the phone. Try installing Facebook after that.

Alright, i'm downloading the rom again right now. Will wiping Dalvic Cache remove any of my data or mess anything else up?

Wiping Dalvik cache won't mess you up.
Did you reboot after removing Facebook with Titanium Backup? If you don't, installation will fail from the market.
proper steps are:
Remove Facebook from system/app
reboot
Install from market
This will work with any system app that your ROM might have updated in the market

It says application not installed. I just tried the apk from the rom. I havent cleared dalvik cache yet... what do i do?
Edit: No, I didn't reboot, trying it now.

Before rebooting, the system still "remembers" that the app was there. You need to reboot to clean the "remains".
Clearing Dalvik-cache might also help. It doesn't mess up the data, since the cache is rebuilt on boot. It just slows down the 1st boot after it.
I just went through the same procedure with Terminal Emulator on friend's Nexus today (only that I removed the app manually, thus I needed to clear Dalvik cache entry and remove data directory by myself - I believe that if you used Titanium, it did that for you).

Thank you so much! Rebooting fixed the problem, installed from market perfectly.

Happy to help, glad you're back in business.

then go to CWM, wipe cache partition....and (not reqd but can do no harm)wipe dalvik

I tried all wipes. Maybe, but i don't think so, that i did something wrong. I retry and if works i'll tell you what works. Thanks!

Same problem! But im using DjangoManouche 1.5 Beta 4. I'll try all the wipes, then i'll post here the result.
Edit:
It work's! You need o wipe the cache and dalvik by cwm.

I also had the same problem with indroid rc4 .. I was on 725 BB so decided to upgrade it to latest one and for me it works now. It worked May be bcoz upgrading will factory reset ur phone ...well I also formatted my internal sd .

App is not installed after moving .apk to system/app!

Hi there.
I would be very grateful if someone will help me solve my problem.
Well, after moving .apk to system/app (This time it was Google Wallet, but earlier I had the same with other apps) and data/app (tried both), it doesn't appear in the app drawer. What is more, It's not seen by Titanum Backup, nor the adb sees it as the installed package (adb shell, pm list packages) - no app on the list).
As I said, it works with every app - nothing appears after moving .apk to system directory manually.
Okay, wiping Dalvik-Cache and fixing the permissions may solve the problem, but I am afraid it may enable THIS screen appear on EVERY reboot (correct me if I am wrong).
Do you know any other solution? Or wiping dalvik-cache and fixing the permissions from recovery is the only proper one?
P.S. Can wiping dalvik-cache and fixing the permissions cause some problems, like it will delete the records in games or will have to configure the settings again?

use es File Explorer as you need to set the permissions, es automatically sets them correctly

Well, what I forgot to add, I of course set the permissions (644 as all system apps)... Is in that case only solution wiping dalvik-cache?
Will wiping dalvik cache delete my games records

I would suggest to wipe dalvik and the regular cache.
Any game data won't be touched (those aren't cache files correct me if I'm wrong)
If the problem persists tell us what rom etc. you're on and maybe do a full reinstall with backing up data before.

Are you using an apk from the stock rom on another rom? I'm asking this because I wanted LG Weather on CM 10.1 and I put it in system/app, rebooted and it didn't appear anywhere. The thing is that the stock rom is not deodexed and CM is. I had to use a tool to deodex the app and then put it in place, fix permissions and reboot.

You shouldn't need to wipe the dalvik cache, simply rebooting will appear that screen only for the apps that you manually put in system/app.

I'm on the Stock ROM. So I should odex this file to use it? Could you tell me which tool should I use?

1. you dont move the apk. you copy it in system/app.
2. the game data is in data not in cache.
3. you dont need to wipe dalvic. a new app installed just creates a new file in dalvic

Well I fix thew permissions in file manager. I don't know how to make the apps install this way,

Even if you copy it to /system/app/ and set permissions, it won't be installed for sure. You'd better check logs to know what's happening.

Copy/Paste it in system/app. System apps can't be installed the way you are try to do it.

Fix proper permissions, i guess rw-r-r.

Also it seems it cannot be zipaligned using zalignx from HarshJelly.

Maybe install as user? Though System install should work the way you describe.

Maybe if you put in system/app/ and system/priv-app/, set correct permission for apk and for folder, reboot, and don't wipe dalvik cache as dalvik is not used in lollipop. In fact, wiping cache wouldn't even be necessary for the apps to install correctly.

Hi i Check permissions its correct

You can't. You need to re-sign it with the platform certificate for target firmware. Contact your custom ROM developer for platform key, but they're reserve the right to keep it private for security reasons.
Edit: Nevermind, I see you're using stock firmware still. Make a.request for flushable Zip from them, maybe they broke it with some hack.
