Skyraider 2.5.2 Chrome To Phone question - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I installed 2.5.2 over 2.2, and ended up with Chrome To Phone v1.0. I want to upgrade to v2.0 from the market, but the install fails with "Installation Unsuccessful". Is there a way to upgrade this via Market that I'm missing? If not, if I push the APK via adb will that work?

Uninstall the apk with root explorer or titanium amd install the one.from the marked

Youtube installation unsuccessful

I have uninstalled it with Titanium Backup (Youtube.apk disappears from /system/app), rebooted, tried to install but has gotten "Installation unsuccessful" instead. Upon rebooting Youtube.apk magically re-appears.
ROM: OpenDesire
same here, running miui.
It's the same issue that affected Maps, etc. Updated fine on RCMixHD btw, installed over the top of the stock app via the Market

Installing over stock app doesn't work on OpenDesire, neither does uninstalling and rebooting.

Any ideas what to do besides waiting for AdamG to update OpenDesire?
Did anybody try "adb push" the app?

please explain in steps how to do that! id be very grateful
Okay I wiped my phone and installed DeFroST instead. Had not used DeFroST for a long time.
and now it works?
Adb is kinda long try this first see if it works, replace the YouTube apk in gapps(system/app directory) with the new YouTube apk and flash gapps(with the new YouTube).

just S-OFF your device, which enables REAL write access to your system and you can uninstall. with S-ON, you cannot write to /system and other partitions - the SPL denies that.
Use titanium backup to delete it, reboot your phone then install it.

Ganjdroid, he already did that and it didn't work for him :/

With Titanium backup it only works for S-OFF phones for all other :
reboot to recovery
mount system partition
plug in to usb
open terminal and wirte:
adb shell
push C://Downloads/Youtube.apk /system/app/
or use Android Commander Instead.

[Q] Copy a Free app (from market) to PC?

Hi,
I'm in Japan, and the (free) "Softbank Mail!" MMS app is the only one working at the moment. Problem is, they updated the software to 1.6 which was a huge step down from 1.5 . I didn't update, so I'm safe on my OpenDesire Rom.
I want to switch to Oxygen ROM, but I realized I don't have 1.5 version of softbanks Mail App. I am forced to download the new and unimproved 1.6 from the market.
So I want to make a copy of the 1.5 from my OpenDesire build to my PC, flash Oxygen, and install the 1.5 on Oxygen. Do-able? If so, what is the proper procedure for this (if I'm allowed to ask..?)
This app is 100% free, I am not attempting to pirate anything in any way shape or form, break any copywrite agreements, just want to use the (more) reliable version on a different ROM.
Have you tried using Root Explorer or adb and copy the apk from /system/app folder?
Oh, just adb will work? I can try that. I'll have to google root explorer, not sure what that is.
The app name on the market is different than the actual app when its on my phone. So i should just do adb pull mail?

Can you extract it from your opendesire rom zip and put it into the oxygen one before flashing?

have you tried backing it up with titanium back up and then installing the new rom, then installing titanium back up again and restoring your back up, in theory that should just keep the 1.5 version

Hi Mike, to be honest I haven't a clue as to how to do this. I would have to zip my OpenDesire in it's current state, extract, install on oxygen zip, resign, install on phone?

Hi vengeance, I purchased My Backup Pro a while back, ended up not using it because I couldn't figure it out (lack of options). I'll check into that one a bit more though.

Ok, if you haven't got the rom zip as a download you can do this..
Download 'Super Manager' from the market.
Using this you can backup the mms.apk that's currently in your opendesire rom.
Once backed up, copy it to your computer.
Download the Oxygen zip to your computer.
Open (don't extract) the oxygen zip and navigate to /system/app - I use 7zip to do this.
Drag the backed up mms.apk into the open oxygen zip so the opendesire one overwrites the oxygen one.
Close the oxygen zip and transfer it to your sdcard.
Install

Ok, used the backup program. Worked like a charm. Thanks!

Tried installing new black market...now I have No market

So i tried doing the one for droid via rom manager and when I got into my phone there was no market. Then I tried to download the new version via apk and it installed but when I open it, it crashes with an error. I uninstalled it trying to install the APK of the black market and it fails.
What'd i manage to do to my phone and how can I get market back?
Is there some file it would of screwed up I need to uninstall?
Obviously I need a market
this is where the black market thread is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1173880
Update, nothing f'ing works
I had this same issue on my gtab. The new market wasn't working for me so i removed it. Then the old market was crashing. To fix it I just reset the cache and data and it worked fine afterwards.

Here's a fun thing I did that I dont know how to undo
I removed market update using titanium backup thinking maybe it was an issue. Would just reinstalling the rom fix it?
Go to apps and themes and look for transparent market and flash it

You need to delete com.vending in data/app and vending.apk in system/app. Then flash this zip http://www.multiupload.com/8CONVCPOMT its not sneads version but its a nice dark one I found more compatible w/ our phones.
cd's or tapes?

try 1) fixing permission in recovery and/or 2) installing the app then reinstalling it. i don't use es file explorer so can't help you there (i use titanium)

[Q] Apps that need root access not work.

Some apps like root explorer, rom manager and faster fix, which needs a phone rooted to work, are not working anymore. I have noticed these apps are not working when I flashed the latest radio- 26.14.04.28 and kernel Lordmod 8.5 cfs.
I reflashed to radio 26.09.04.11 (the recommended radio to use), reinstalled the apps but still none works.
I'm currently using cyanogenmod 7.1.0.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
Try uninstalling super user and then reinstalling. Also when you re install check for update through program.

It won't let me to uninstall superuser but by denying i got fastet fix to work. Thanks
That means superuser is in system/app. You can uninstall superuser using adb if you know how. In terminal you would type "adb uninstall /system/app/superuser.apk". Then type adb reboot. After it boots install superuser from market. You may have to type "adb root" before trying to uninstall to receive root access.

That also didn't work. I just flashed the rom again, which was a bummer but it fixed everthing.
Thanks for your help mate
