Hi everybody,
I've just installed Revolution HD on my freshly rooted Desire HD and i would like to add the Footprints application.
I've found some apk on the web, tried adb pushing the .apk and .odex to system/app ....
Did someone have a working version (on HD) of the HtcFootprints.apk package and HtcFootprintsWifgets.apk with their odex .. ?
Thanks,
Android revolution is deodexed. You shouldn't be pushing odexed files it will never work.
By the way which base band version are you on. It's probably best to match these as well.

Baseband
Hi dr.m0x,
Thanks for taking time to help..
My baseband is 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.15_M3, S-OFF super CID
The .odex file is the dalvik cache for a particular apk... is it ? If i push the .apk without the .odex will it be rebuild at the first launch ?
Going to try with deleting the .odex files..
I don't understand what the baseband have to do with footprints.apk...
Do not work..
I've found an .apk that gave me an icon in my apps after having pushed the file in system/app/ BUT it force closed when launched.
I'm also running revolution HD Footprints is included in the location widget or did you remove it before install?

Hoooo
Hello Wakers,
Seems that you are right, footprints is embedded in the "locations" application, not as simple to use as the standalone "Footprints" but it do the job... thanks for the info.
Seems that the locations' widget do not alow me to display my footprints... on the desire, not HD, it is easy to click on the widget and add a new footprints.. not with locations.
Bye,

The question is: How do I replace the stock HTC keyboard that comes any HTC stock rom and replace it with a mod? I'm trying to integrate the keyboard into a Rom so that this keyboard appears as default at installation of ROM However keeping it as an apk in either /system/app or /data/app/ leads to force closes at first boot. Replacing the HTC ime apk leads to a lot more force closes. Has anyone been successful in doing this?
While on this question, does anyone know which file stores settings which determine which one of a number of keyboards that we've installed, is chosen as default?
I'm trying to incorporate the HTC IME mod keyboard..
Bumping it for a little attention..
There really ought to be a Q & A section within the Theming section...This belongs there!
Do you also move the lib's to the correct folders. Cause when opening the HTC IME mod zip there are 4 files in there. If you move all these files in to the right folders before flashing I think it should work.

No. I was trying to add Adbirdie's keyboard from here. (Which is only an apk)
I cant find links to libraries, or flashable zips with the libs..Would you point me to the file with libs? I'm trying to incorporate the keyboard into my rom and remove the htc one..
Seems like there are a hole bunch of HTC IME floating around, i was talking about the one in the the [FAQ] OxygeN + Tips! thread.
Maybe if you add the lib's and the clicker.apk from that and the actual HTC_IME.apk form Adbirdie.
Just a thought i have no idea if this will work.

You were spot on!
I used the lib lib99.so along with the apk (just replaced HTC_IME.apk) and it worked fine on bootup! Thanks a lot.. Now I can add this as the default keyboard for my rom!
By the way, if someone else is trying to do the same thing, you've got to open the apk as a zip file, and extract the libraries in the folder lib, and copy them to /system.
Hey, i deleted some system apps, which i will never need again.
First you need Titanium Backup. You find it in the Market.
So you´re able to save your apps and then unistall it. But dont uninstall everything...some apps are very important!
I only uninstalled apps, which are not to use on the flipout but uses disk space.
Files you can delete:
ESMusica
HipHopOfficial
Kodak Perfect Touch
QuickOffice (i have QuickOffice Pro installed)
RevolverTV
SIM Toolkit 2.1 update 1
TrueCountry 2.0.0012
Youtube (i replaced it with the android2.3 youtube)
There are a lot more apps to delete but some apps need a similar app to replace e.g. blur launcher...the phone won´t start if there is no similar launcher added before..
have fun
Thanks, can anyone post some more disposable applications here?

@Schallstoerer
can you post your upgraded youtube apk ?
no problem!
you have to rename it in youtube.apk!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=817528
1. download the apk
2. delete old youtube.apk from /system/app/youtube.apk with root explorer
3. restart the phone
4. uninstall com.google.android.youtube (it appears after the restart in your settings - manage apps...
5. move the new youtube.apk to the system/app folder
6. install it!
maybe you have to restart..dont know!
Having problems with your youtube app.
To make the vid start i have to click on HQ as soon as the vid opens otherwise it returns 'sorry can't play...'.

Some more apps I'd remove:
newswidget
socialshare
statuswidget
universalinbox
weatherwidget
blur-services [very uncertain about this, is this system necessary ?]
blurcontactssync [very uncertain about this too]
do you think it's safe removing them ?
One more question: I made a backup of previously removed apps but apks only, not the odex files. If I try putting the apk back to /system/app the app works again although I read that odexed apps usually need both apk and odex to start again.
sooo lets try!
i dont have the problems with the youtube.apk like you! do you have uninstalled the com.google.android.youtube after restart?
maybe you have to set the permissions in root explorer to
"rw-r--r--"
i hope it will help!
there are a lot of lists which system apps can be deleted and whats their function!
http://www.android-hilfe.de/anleitu...beit-welche-apps-duerfen-entfernt-werden.html
this is the best list i found but only in german!
Red=Don´t delete
Green=Deleting possible
Blue=Not tested!

Hi guys!
Daily briefing on latest odexed JVR is corrupted. I want to share working apk for all gingerbread roms.
How to install:
1) If you're on odexed rom, just delete system/app/infoalarm.apk and infoalarm.odex
1) If you re on deodexed rom, just delete sytem/app/infoalarm.apk
2) Download the infoalarm.apk on attachment and copy it to system/app
It's done.
Maybe this can work on cm7 roms. I didn't try it. I think it works.
Note: You need root explorer or adb shell. You can use ES file explorer - free on market.
Please click thanks button.
Thank you!
Working perfectly on stock ODEX JVR.
I'm on a stock odexed JVR firmware and my phone doesn't have daily briefing, no Infoalarm.apk in /system/app/ .
I'll give this a try.

hi
I have a problem: I have upgraded this JW1 firmware via Kies (XEN), rooted with stock+ kernel and via root explorer I have installed infoalarm.apk in /system/app. deleting the ugly MMMsamsung, Bol and fileindex which are quite useless. I have checked the permissions and the owner in the infoalarm.apk but the software refuses to install, also when I restart the phone, anyone has any idea?
Will this work on ICS?
used to work in JVQ
... but since I flashed JVZ it refuses to install
Hi,
This is a really dirty fix but it works! Extracted and replaced /res/xml/music_widget_info.xml with the file attached. I've replaced the line android:resizeMode="vertical" with android:resizeMode="horizontal|vertical" and zipped the file back up again.
A little more to it then that since apktool can't compile the app but it's working
Just put the apk into /system/app/ or extract your own and replace the xml file.
Enjoy!
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/18412241/music_widget_info.xml
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/18412241/MusicPlayer.apk
Doesn't work..
I cant resize the music player horizontal.
Thank's
Just tested it from Dropbox myself and it does work. Downloaded the APK and overwrote the original one in /system/app/
This version came from Omega 7.1 so is deodexed. If your ROM isn't deodexed you'll need to delete the MusicPlayer.odex file in /system/app/.
I haven't got that xml folder?

Thx's m8. Works fine.
Really strange mod but it works
Well this apk didn't work for. so i downloaded the original Sgs3 touchwiz from omega files and now I have the "4x1" music widget.

tried to install the apk on my galaxy tab 2 7.0 (gt-p3110)
but unfortunately it didnt work. the installer simply says: app not installed.
do you think its possible to get this running on my device?
the tablet is not rooted and im not planning to do so (at the moment).
im looking forward to your responses. thanks in advance.
downloaded this fantastic s4 moded weather widget from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2227345
on my HTC Desire
the clock and date works on it but location and weather is not set
and when you press on the ( add city ) on the widget the touch wiz launcher stops (unfortunately touchwiz launcher has been stopped )
and my explanation for that is :
that the flashable zip consists of 1-accuweatherWidgetDaemon.apk
2-accuweatherWidget.apk
3-accuweatherWidget_main.apk
and the only installed APKs are (1&2) and 3 cant be installed
and in my opinion if the proplem is in the framwork.res.apk the (1&2) apks wont be installed but it has been installed
i tried many other zips from many developers but the number 3 cant be installed
I tried another method by copying #3 by (ex file exp or root browser ) but only 9.34 mb from 13.4 mb is copied to system/app i tried many times but the same every time

Did you re-mount the system/app folder with r/w permissions before copying the .apk?
