Simple. From TWRP main menu go to Advanced and then Terminal. I don't know what do you mean with"as an .apk"

To me,
i will like to use the keyboard used by TWRP terminal for everyday use. Can i download the keyboard from playstore?

If you want Keyboard use AOSP Keyword, default comes with many ROMs.
For terminal app use material termial, almost the same.

Sure. Its called *open the terminal and use the find command*.

While this does work it is not user friendly . It requires every android user to have terminal installed and understand linux. To clarify I would like a graphical .apk that all users can use something that shows options like search by size or extension and browse for a specific folder to search in.
Wrong forum, moving this.
And although it might be useful... it really won't be. The only reason you should be searching through the linux install for files is if you understand what you're doing, and in which case, you'd know how to use find (or at least read the man page for it).
SU File Manager & Terminal has a find gui. I don't use it much because it also has a terminal It's a payed app ($1.99) but well worth it for me.
Here's the thread in this forum: SUFBS
look for me
I posted a script like this here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4247181
I have a terminal and a rooted droid 2, but I can not find a "find" command. I can find all the normal suspects in sys. Find would be very useful. Anyone know were this command hides on a droid 2 or do I need to download a special apk for this command?
Try busybox
After rooted, you can find "find" in busybox. Busybox is found in android market, and you can find how to be rooted in this forum.
Thanks.

HTC_IME

Can someone help me? For the longest time I've been running Android Keyboard because HTC's keyboard just doesn't work for me any more. Now I want to get it fixed because Android's keyboard is just miserable.
Every time I click on the HTC Keyboard to type it force closes immediately. Anyone know what that's attributed to?

I may need to try this, since my AppManager seems to not be working properly. After I run the uninstall script, do I just put the extracted HTC_IME.apk in the root folder of my SD card to run the install script?
EDIT: Okay, figured this out! I just put the HTC_IME.apk from the CM-4.1.11.1 ROM zip in my C:\ folder, opened cmd, nav to C:\ and ran those commands. Now HTC_IME Touch Input works!
This was going to be a deal breaker, and I gave up and went back to 4.0.4 until I saw this thread. Thx for the help.
How the noob made it work
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DGFGMI3I
Link above contains Clicker.apk, HTC_IME.apk, and libt9.so from cyanogen's 4.1.11.1 ROM
Code:
Adb remount
adb push \wateverlocation\libt9.so /system/lib
Then copy the clicker to /system/app... then use a FileManager on your phone to install.. I use ASTRO, its FREE...
you could also adb that, but don't recommend it.
Code:
adb push \wateverlocation\Clicker.apk /system/app
adb push \wateverlocation\HTC_IME.apk /system/app
I have tried what you have written, i have pushed it, but when i find it with the Astro manager i only get the option to UNinstall or details.
And when i try adb install from whateverlocation on pc i get:
Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_UNEXPECTED_EXCEPTION]
I have Abyzou ROM.
Forget it, it is installed. But now it force closes before it even opens! What the?!
See post HERE for the properly working HTC_IME.
Also has the text to speech option.
Install as instructed and you should be golden
Nice, thanks! But you know what?? It is TOTALLY oversized! I have a tattoo!
Is this ever gonna end for me!

here do this,make sure u hit enter after each command
1.su
2.cd /data/app_s
3.ls
look at the list and make sure you type exactly how it is named, if the H in htc is caps the make sure you put Htc
4. rm /data/app_s/HtcClockWidget.apk
It depends on the build you are running. The previous post is correct, unless you are on enomthers TheOfficial ADP1.6. In this case, doing the above will erase it until the next reboot. If this is your build, then you need to go to the terminal and enter
su
expsetup
Choose option 15, and you will then be given the option to remove QO (among other things).

[Q] SPB Shell 3D as system app?

I want to install SPB Shell 3D as a system application. I've tried TiBuPro to no avail..
Does anyone know if it is possible or beneficial to install SPB Shell 3D to the system apps?
Thanks!
It wouldn't benefit you to install SPB Shell 3D as a system application, at least not on the Captivate. It would only benefit you if it was being forced out of memory, which I doubt it is.

Actually, I have been experiencing just that on the MIUI ROM.
But I can deal with that.. I'm pretty sure I can make it stay in memory..
So no performance increases by putting an app in system, eh?
Sounds good! Thanks a lot!

Well then installing it as a system application may fix that. However, I think it may be more of an issue with crashing; have you changed the "Compatibility Mode" option for SPB Shell? It's somewhere in the MIUI settings.
If that doesn't fix it, you can use any file explorer that has root access to move the application from /data/app to /system/app, then reboot. Android will then recognize it as a system application. If you don't have a file explorer with root access and don't wish to pay for one, I can give you the commands for the process that you can type with adb or in the terminal emulator.

First choose your keyboard in Settings.
Then go into messages to create a new text message. Long click on one of the input boxes. Choose your keyboard again here..
Reboot and check again.. It should work then..

Is your keyboard installed on sd card or internal? Move to internal and convert it to system app. And delete old keyboard.

can you tell me how to convert it to system app?, i cant delete the default keyboard, i tried to delete it from titanium back up but i cant find the .apk file for the default keyboard
If you have your keyboard on SDCard, just put it back in the internal storage, define it as default keyboard and you're all set!
