Every time i try to do something on the SDK its says no space left on device.
So i got a root manager and a file manager to try to delete some files that i knew i wasn't using, but every time i reboot they show back up. What do i do to delete the files from my phone?
As your phone sits... you don't have permission to do this... please run enrevoked forever and then you will have permission to delete files.

Drop the .apk you want to restore into the "tools" folder in the Android SDK then open a command window there and use adb
adb remount
adb push name.apk /system/app
Where name is replaced by the name of the .apk you are moving there, it has to match exactly caps and all.
And you can get the apk by downloading your rom from the dev section and unzipping the file. Look under /system/app.

I wouldn't worry about using ADB or command lines. I have found with APK's, it's easiest just to use something like ES file Explorer, or Astro File manager (both free in the market).
Just find the file on your SD card, and click on it, it will allow you to install it from there. I attached the APK to make it easy. If you are browsing from your phone, just download and install this. You don't even need a file manager.
Somehow, the framework-res.apk; browser.apk; HTCDialer.apk; HTCclockwidget.apk were all moved to app backup in the sdcard in the storage optimizer file.
I have tried to reinstall, and it states it is a system application and asks if I still want to replace. I hit ok then install. It moves forward and the done, but it states that application not installed.
This has the WiFi access on it, and I am most concerned about not being able to use the WiFi.
What can I do, EVO 2.2.
You should be able to do it with adb shell.
thanks, I was going tl try, I am just new, as you can probably tell. I am trying to set up.

I'm not sure I understand how that happened, and I'm slightly confused by it. Are you sure those files were actually moved, and not copied to the sd card? I didn't think the phone would even be able to run without the framework-res.apk.
Anyways, to answer your question, you can use Root Explorer (3 or 4 bucks in the market, and well worth it) or ES File Explorer (free) to make changes in the system folder. I use root explorer to add/remove system applications all the time. You just need to click a button within the root explorer app to mount the system read write. Once you do that, you can add, delete, edit, etc anything in the system folder. just navigate to /system/app. Good luck.
Edit: and of course, as the other poster suggested, you would also be able to do it with ADB, if you're familiar with it.
i think they were copied, yes, but they are not in use, and I need to get them back to the proper place for use. Thanks, I will try root explorer.
I just unlocked, rooted and restored all files in my nexus. I went into root Explorer to delete unwanted files and am getting a delete failed error every time I try to delete a file. Also my screen shots are no longer saving it says storage is in use. Anybody experience anything like this after rooting?

Are you trying to delete system files? Do you have SU installed? Are you clicking the R/W option. More details please.....
Several people have reported the issue with screen shot, to fix it they've had to rename the pictures folder(Seems like the folder is read only).
Swiftkey'ed on my CM9 Galaxy Nexus
No system files just old pictures, music files and other misc. It is set as r/w, also I am getting a few apps saying I need storage available that is writable. Something has to be up with the internal storage not allowing me to access or write to it.

Well I am able to take screen shots by renaming he folder. However, I am still unable to write anything to my sdcard or modify files through root Explorer or any other file manager app.

Root explorer - How to text edit
Hi All,
I have a problem with my root explorer. I am not able to open a file to edit. If i long press on a file , i dont get any option to open/edit the file.
i was supposed to edit gps.conf file under /system/etc but unable to do so from root explorer.
PS: i mount r/w from the root explorer every time i try..
Please help.
If you have any directories/files that you can't modify or delete, then boot into CWM recovery, plug in the USB cable, go into adb shell. Also make sure that /data is mounted in the CWM mounts menu. Then:
cd /data/media
chown -R media_rw.media_rw *
root explorer delete failed

i'm having this crazy "delete failed" error every time i try to delete any file in sdcart, external, and root directory (copy-paste, root, permissions works fine )
i tried to delete any remains of root explorer with es file explorer ((which works fine btw so its not a problem of partitions i think), re installed the program again but its the same . Flashed the rom from the beginning with a full wipe but its the same
this error happened first when i updated from blackmart alpha to some rootexplorer v.99. I uninstalled that but it left this error
Any idea what is causing that
I'm very curious and would appreciate it
thanks
I found a way to delete the files you suggest using Root Explorer. Go into /data/media/<navigate to the directory that you want to delete files>.. make sure the folder is mounted as r/w and delete the files you want to delete. This is how I bypassed the delete failed issue in Root Explorer...

^^^^ this
Thank you rester, this worked for me too. Was pulling my hair out.
On every other phone since 2000 years ago i ALWAYS could put in the rom zip file in download folder. And then start into recovery.
There i could find the download folder and point out any zip file to install.
But with this phone when i start into recover first it asks for password. Pressing cancel takes me further.
BUT...where are the folders one wonders!!!!. I can NOT find the download folder.
Entering sdcard folder only shows empty place.
I KNow that i have managed somehow...before .....to boot up into recovery and suddenly i can see all the ordinary folders where i have inserted the zip files. But i can not figure out what im doing different to have been able to see these folders. Can not point out the exact reason for not seeing it this time.
When phone is booted normaly. I choose filetransfer in windows and copy the files into the memory of the phone....in folder DOWNLOAD.
But as i said before...then when booting into recovery...this folder or any other folders that are seen under windows are not present at all.
What im a doing wrong? JUst want to place the rom file in a folder to be able to reflash the phone.
Sorry
My son protected the boot sequence with password. When removed it....i could see all the folders again.
