Apps Installer 0.2.1 or Other - Help! - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I just bought a new HTC Desire and want to get into installing new apps.
I came across the Apps Installer 0.2.1 and downloaded it but have no idea what to do with the files.
How do i get the app installed so I can start installing apk file. Where do I copy the files, etc.
Anyone else recommends anything else to use as an app installed.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks and P.S, I love my phone. Its amazing and I hate iPhone!

Any ROMS with a File Explorer? Got the Stuck at download problem.

Hey there folks!
Basically, I've been hit with the stuck at downloading problem with my HTC Desire.
It won't download ANY apps whatsoever apart from PayPal for some reason.
I've tried everything, deleting cache/data for various programs, factory reset, HARD reset, installing different roms and even been given a new phone by Orange! Still no luck.
I've even tried creating a new googlemail/gmail account, activating GTalk and all the rest. Nothing is working for me and it is seriously stressing me out.
I was wondering, are there any ROMs out there with a FILE EXPLORER built in? I don't care what file explorer it is, just as long as it has one. That way I'll be able to install MyBack Up Pro and install the rest of my Apps from my SD card instead of having to download them.
I don't really care what ROM it is, I've gotten to the point where I just want a working Desire with apps!
Any help would be grateful.
Much obliged

just do a search for paid apps online and you will probably find them available to download for free and do a manual install via HTC Sync
Filestube.com is a good one
if you like the app, it is worth considering paying for it to support the developers
Hi there,
thanks for replying =]
I can't seem to find a HTC Sync that is compatible with the Mac OS X
I'll have a look around a bit more though.

Is your phone rooted?
If so, open the Rom zip file and add the apk for a file explorer and then install it from the recovery menu, remember to disable verification.
So I would literally just unzip the DeFrost rom, add in File Explorer apk into the zip and then re-zip it.
And then go to the Recovery and just do a wipe an reinstall the rom?
Would that actually install the File Explorer too?
I tried HTC Sync.
For some reason my phone won't connect to it! (Tried on both Mac OS X and Windows 7)
This is definitely not my lucky week >_<
Well that works for me
I use Leedroid mod.
I open zip file and put APK's under Data/App
But i dont unzip, i just open the zip in winrar, add the apk's , choose add and replace and thats it.
then i install rom with signature verification disabled.
Newly flashed rom with my own apk's installed from start.
GIve it a shot
Ahh
I think thats what might have went wrong for me.
The signature verification feature?
How do I disable it? Is it through my phone or through my laptop?
I tried unzipping then adding the apk file in the Apps section and THEN rezipping it but it doesn't work.
The ROM won't install.
Must be because of the verification thing...
In the recovery menu under advanced u can disable it if u use amon ra.
if u use clockwork i think its under the flash zip menu
SOmetimes when i do this it doesnt work first time ( most times it works), if that happens just wipe and reflash.
Good luck
Perfect!
Thanks very much friend.
Finally working. Soon as I got File Manager installed the rest of it became a piece of cake!
I owe you one Charon72!

No problem, Just happy i could help solve your problem.
Enjoy ur working desire

[Q] Big problem.

My phone had run out of space so like an idiot I decided that it would be a good idea to delete the .apk files from system/apps. Now most of the apps on my phone have stopped working. Is there any way I can fix this ? I need help with this really fast. Thanks.
If you don't have a backup, then you can try one of these:
1. Install the apps you removed, one by one manually.
2. Reinstall the ROM.

AdFree doesnt work anymore? 6.1a defrost rom

Hey Guys
Im trying to get rid of these annoying ads from pingchat or angry birds and even though the adfree is installed downloaded the hosts files etc and rebooted it still shows the ads, did Google blocked adfree in Froyo roms?
thanks
Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall adfree ? I had this issue before and that fixed the problem.
Must admit I'm having trouble with it at the moment too, been the last week or so maybe?
When I first rooted my phone (about 3 weeks ago) it was fine, but more recently it refuses to work. App itself is happy, just that it doesn't block ads.
Yeh well just reinstalled adfree and still nothing :/ hmm any ideas appreciated

Try Redux RC6 ROM, it seems to have adblocking built in (and is also a generally fantastic ROM) - its working well for me right now.
Also try Gingervillain 0.9 - once you're running it, you can install an adblocking zip from the villain setup app which is built in to the ROM. GV 1.0 is now available, but general feedback seems to suggest that it is buggy compared to 0.9, so go for 0.9 - I used to use this and it was fine, plus adblocking worked!!
I've always found setup to successfully run it to be different with every other ROM I tried - even across versions of the same ROM (which is a PITA). Mainly because of the variance in ROM structures. Right now for instance, I'm debugging the same issue on RCMixHD v3.0 D2W and I still can't manage to get it working.

I've managed to get it working again by finding my "hosts" file and deleting it and letting adfree to regenerate it again. Somewhere in "etc" folder.
Hope this helps.

what directory?
and btw I am not willing to change my rom until gingerbread for nexus is released and ported
Its straight in system/etc.
I also just had this link suggested. Flash via recovery for hosts update, host listing updated weekly so just reflash if you start getting ads.
Just removed adfree and flashed this and can confirm it works.

HTC Transfer Data App

Hello,
I've got a HTC Desire. My old phone is a Windows Mobile device.
A friend of me has a Desire HD with the App Transfer Data from HTC.
So I thought the Desire would also have this app and I could transfer Data from my messages from my WM device to the desire.
Is there a apk for this app somewhere?
Thanks for helping me.
Pulled from my ROM. It should be working.
Thanks for Transfer Data App i m also searching for this app. Still i didn't use this app, i hope it work's.

Has anyone managed to install this .apk? I'm trying using the mentioned instructions but I can't seem to manage. Am I missing something here? I'm trying to install onto a DHD running virtuous unity 1.27.0

Download this program to sign your apps.
@Maniascorpio: Thanks a lot buddy!!! it works on my atrix now..
@Maniascorpio: brilliant! thanks a mucho.. you're a life saver! cool.. =)
Newer version
The old version here cannot receive the picture associated with the contact. I have attached the newer version that comes with HTC Sensation. I got it from the file "Stock Apps+ODEX.zip" at this thread: [APPS] T-Mobile Stock Apps & Stock Apps+ODEX Files
Also you may want to sign the application first. Then check the above replay by @maniacscorpio.

Running a Unrooted Galaxy S3 LTE. The app installs fine, I get a black screen for a few seconds, then it says "Unfortunately, Transfer has stopped."
Do I need root access?

[Q] [ROM][Cool3D Sense 3.5] - Shared library Missing?

Hi All,
Thanks for reading this post.
I have been custom romming my PVT3 for a while now and sofar have been sticking to CM7 nightlies.
Since I was kind of curious where Sense stands right now I decide to try this rom for a change.
Sofar I am liking it, but alas when I install certain apps the give the error "shared library missing" and won't install.
I also received an error about a package error.
It seems to have to do with a missing Maps API, so far I understand.
This should install together with the Gapps zip, but apparently with me it does not.
I'm using the gapps-gb-20110613-signed, but it doesn't seem to do anything?
The usual download selector (you know the one where you select which google bloatware you do want) doesn't come up.
I noticed the all new and shiny market (3.1.3) on this rom. Does that imply I need to use a zip with that market version in it?
Is there not a way to get this "library" to update through the terminal?
I'd really like to tinker with this, but not as long apps are not installing, any help is greatly appreciated.
I've tried a full day to google it, but either it concerns other phones or other roms or is way over my understanding of roms, so if you could help a brother in arms out, it would be greatly appreciated.
