Uninstall then reinstall from the market, this will then work for future updates as well.

I'm on LeeDroid V1.6 and I'm getting the same error.
I imagine that it's something to do with Maps already being pre-installed to /data.

Guys,
You don't need Linux at all!
If you're running LeeDroid, you should simply be able to uninstall normally. I use a free app called Quick Uninstaller by BandBTool, that you can get from from Market.
Then just reinstall the apps from Market and you get the updated versions.
Failing that, you need to use adb - if you're not familiar with it, you need to search but basically you need to boot into recovery, then use adb to mount /system and remove the .apk files that relate to the apps you can't update.

Ok, well I'm still on 1.5 but assuming he's kept maps in the same place, you need to:
cd /data/app
rm Google_maps.apk
edit: Scratch that, he's changed it:-
Still in /data/app but...
rm Maps.apk

can't cd to /data/app

Forgot to mention, you have to mount /data first

i mounted /data before ...

Hmmm....
Then I don't see how it can be done through adb...
Try uninstalling through this then

I have the answer 4 our Question ...
It's the simple way ...
Unistall the app over the app manager an install new from market ...
But Thanks for the help

I tried to uninstall GMaps trought Quick Uninstaller (I tried all 3 apps from the suggested developer...) but it's impossible.
I don't know why but the message was "uninstallation failed"...this happens just to me???

How do I reinstall stock apps?

I was using titanium backup to uninstall some system apps. and I accidentally uninstalled teeter. is there anyone who can help me reinstall this protected system app? I need to return the phone to my friend in a few days time.
I was coming from the point of view that I have a backup and can restore in the event of stupidity.

Today's lesson is - Don't mess with your friend's stuff
This should fix it...
-Find a Sense ROM from the Development section.
-Read the 1st post to make sure Teeter hasn't been removed.
-Download ROM to your PC.
-Open it with WinZip, WinRAR, 7zip etc
-Browse to \system\app\
-Locate Teeter.apk
-Copy to your PC and then move to phone SD card.
-Got to Market on phone and download ES File Explorer (or any app installer)
-Re-install Teeter.apk
Report back how you get on

Install failed. It says something about the app being a
system file.

Are you rooted, either perm or temp?
If you used temp root to get Titanium working then run Visionary to get temp root again and then try to install Teeter.

Yup i permrooted wth visionary. Reinstalling doesnt work.
I read in another post about directly copying the apk to /system/app/ then restarting. I am doing this now. Hope this works.

If you aren't S-OFF you can't write data to the /system partition, titanium uses an exploit to force the DHD to overwrite the app from recovery, and in that case my friend you are scr***d

Somehow i was able to write to /system/apps/ so i copied the apk and rebooted the phone. After restart i used titanium backup to restore. And teeter is back. Thanks for all the help.

hi
even i did something foolish like this lol
but i deleted the htcclockwidget.apk (i was trying to delete the htc lock apk)
i had a previous backup of it so i wrote it to system/apps and changed the permissions to rw-r--r--. however when i go to personalize/widgets i cant find the clock widget there.
ive tried reflashing another sense rom (leedroid 1.4.1) but tht hasnt helped either...
i tried flashing a theme wich had the htclockscreen.apk but tht also didnt work
i tried fixing permissions in cwn but still tht doesnt work
wat can i do to get the clock widget back??
i dont have a recent nandroid backup either
EDIT: got it working again.... .i went to manage applications, then htc sense and clear data.... all my shortcuts and mods on the homescreens went but i got the widgets working again

I need some stock apps anybody ever made a backup of their stock apps? (and is willing to share?)

[Q] Can't flash Black Clock Widget for Sense 3.0?

I just flashed LeeDrOiD HD V3.3.3-Port-R5. And also did the Sense 3.0 pack V4 A2SD++.
No I'm having a few 'problems' the notification bar is pretty laggy and the weather feat isn't working properly. No big issues but I wanted to get them out of the way so I tried to flash the Black Clock Widget for Sense 3.0 but that gave me following error:
E:Missing file:
sd-ext/app_s/IdleScreen_Weather.apk
It looks like sd-ext is empty and system/sd also... (using ASTRO File Manager)
ROM=LeeDrOiD HD V3.3.3-Port-R5
Add-on=Sense 3.0 pack V4 A2SD++
Hboot=6.93.1002
Thanks!

You cant install the clock cause leedroid is not a sense 3.0 rom, its a 2.1 sense rom, i recomme.d you use the aurora v03 or acesv3 rom, cause they are alot smoother and real sense 3.0 roms.

Hi,
Thanks for the response!
I did post the question in the Q/A forum of the Desire
1) I flashed LeeDroid-HD-Port-RTL-3.3.1-A2SD and Sense3.0_Kingdom_Lockscreen_MMS_Weather-V4-Bravo-A2SD
2)No errors on Boot.
3)It's perfectly usable, but some things are laggy like the fly in menu with the options to shut down/hibernate and the notifications bar that's slow/laggy and also the weather feat thats not displaying the weather.
4)Sd-ext is ext3
5)memory states that there is a total of 405MB (which is weird cus I made an partition of 1GB for this ROM?...) with 76.33MB free. The only thing that is 1GB is A2SD-storage...
6)Systemstorage is 250MB with 16.72MB free. and System-cache 202MB with 202MB free.
7)Is there an other way to see those folders? cuz Root explorer isn't free...(not to be a cheap-ass but its a waste of money for a one time use...)
Thanks for your help!!

Ok, let's see...
It looks as there is a problem with the sense3 pack. The missing file is flashed with this pack. Your free memory seems to be ok (405 mb is RAM btw)
Where do you get the missing file message?
You don't have to by root explorer, try file expert, its free...
I would try to flash the sense3 pack again, followed by a reboot. Then flash my black clock mod (link in my Sig) again.
The power menu is known as a little laggy. The weather thing could be cured, if you delete data+cache of the weather app in settings, manage applications... See the FAQ-thread for more informations (link in my Sig)

Hmm, you can try to Mount SD-ext before flash the mod... No other idea...
If that doesn't work, open my mod-zip, copy the apk from there to the same folder in sense3 pack. (Use 7zip to open the zip's, paste the file , don't extract) flash again ...

I have checked the system/sd with File expert but it shows an empty folder.
I tried copying the HtcClockWidget.apk file from the blackClock to the Sense3.0 addon. but it gives a "Wrong digest: sd-ext/app_s/HtcClockWidget.apk" error...
I also tried flashing the Dark+ Autobrightness patch but that one gave me a missing file: system/build.prop error...
file expert DOES show a build.prop file in the system folder...
Damn, This get weirder and weirder.....
Thanks for your patience!

I flashed a new recovery, came from RA_Desire 2.0.0 and now have recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3.110952.
This did the trick, flashing without problem.
Some problems still exist. the weather feat still doesn't display the weather...
And the clock only displays one 'black' segment...
I also got a error when trying to backup (error after the backup started to backup sd-ext).

Ok, its basically possible that the recovery cause some of this problems.
The other things you described, let me think, that your SD-ext partition is faulty...
I recommend to do a full wipe reinstall. Delete all partitions on SD and build them new, use gparted...

It's not possible with the recovery. I recommend to use gparted. Using a SD-card reader is usually the best way.
1. Make a backup of the files on fat32 partition to your pc.
2. Boot your pc into gparted
3. Delete all partitions on the SD-card (click apply!)
4. Create the new partitions, click apply again
5. Copy the fat32-content back to your SD-card
6. Make sure, the ROM.zip is on SD-card too (make sure, its a valid copy - check md5)
7. Recovery - Full wipe - Flash the Rom.
8. And so on...

[Q] og incredible on 2.3.4(s-on)bloatware help

followed the tutorial for the unrevoked rooting method..(mad props to all involved)
okay so my question is, im on the stock rom(2.3.4) rooted with HBOOT.92 and obviously have root acces, i want to get rid of a bunch of bloatware, vcast,app sharing ect ect.
in the past i had a htc eris and used root explorer and deleted all the bloat from the system/app folder and seemed to work flawless. i tried that but they are still there, then used titanium pro to uninstall them but no go, then i created a filter name "bloat" and melted it. well now the app are uninstalled but still are in my apps screen. i then tried to use root explorer again and they are not to be found in the system/app folder, i have a backup so io am not worried.
any suggestions on how to get rid of these bloatware, or could you recommend a rom low on memory usage that is close to stock rom, or maybe some nice visualized roms that are not to big on the memory.

This might sound obvious but did you reboot after deleting the apps?

You dont need s-off to remove apps just root. Deleting the apks with root explorer should work.

I had this happen when 2.3 first came out, and I went to delete the apps and they'd just reappear on reboot. Installing busybox fixed my issue then.

well i think i may have figured it out, used this app System App remover, couldn't uninstall anything but disabled all the stuff i wanted to, then used root explorer to delete apk's in system/app.
installed busy box but didn't notice anything different.

Just flash a new rom. If you want something like stock or better I suggest any rom by Heyitslou, skyraider, or newtoroot sense 3.0 or lower.

you don't need to do any of that.
Using root explorer:
Delete the .apk files from BOTH system/app AND data/app.
Reboot into recovery.
wipe cache
wipe dalvik cache
Reboot
Be patient as your phone rebuilds the cache and dalvik cache. Once you get to the unlock screen, wait another minute or two.
enjoy.

Clean ROM

Hi. I want a clean ROM having HTC Sense. I want it the closest possible to stock so that everything works although I would not mind if it is unlocked so that I can move apps to sdcard. I cannot download from football's thread as I tried and all roms i tried failed. Is there another one? I am currently running CM9 but I dont like it very much as it is slow and does not have sense.
Thanks

I have made a flashable zip from the RUU HTC Asia India. If you want you can get it here:
Http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2025124

Maybe install stock rom with root, then install Dust kernel ( with overclock) then install Link2SD + No-frills CPU+ APP Quarantine --> And You have a stock fast and space free rom

Thanks. I will try these during the weekend and let you know.

link2sd
Hi. I really thank you for your help. I found this ROM really good, exactly how I had it when I got the mobile. I have only one problem so far. I installed link2sd however when I try to move apps such as facebook it fails and says that it cannot get root access. In a forum I found that I should install the superuser app. I did this however when I opened link2sd I did not get the message to allow superuser rights and I still could not move apps. IS there a solution for this please?
Thanks
