Cant find sim toolkit in new Oxygen after wipe and update to 2.1.2
was this removed?
how can i get this back if this is the case? can i unzip older zip file of the rom and find the .apk there and push it with adb?
Is this app so important for you? Maybe you could after alternatives in market.
i can live without it.
I dont use any of the programs featured in the simcard, but i need the toolkit to be able to use my simcard as security tool to log onto my internet bank (so i dont need the code chip issude by the bank)
its really easy and fast.
but i found the stk.apk in earlier versions of Oxygen so i will try to push this in my system folder
edit: and it worked! found the apk in Oxygen 2.0.1.

If you are s-off, you can use an explorer with root-option, mount r/w, go to /system/apps and copy the apk there.
But make nandroid-backup before, just in case.

Alrite! i already did it with adb push from my computer, but your solution is simpler and faster, and doesn't require a computer(with sdk). Thanks

I have just installed the Pays-ROM Defy v6.0 Froyo with Ginger feeling in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943258.
I don't want to use the mms.apk(I cann't remember its name accurately) and delete it, but now I donn't have a text messaging app. So could you please tell me how to recovery it?
Thanks a lot!
BTW, I cann't find a file manager in the ROM.
if you deleted it, youll have to get it from someone else, or you could do a nandroid backup, re install pays ROM and copy the app to your memory card using root explorer or similar, then restore your old backup and install the apk from your memory card

I have got the app folder from CG39.smg, but I don't know which app is for the Text Messagings.
I tried copy Conversations.apk and Conversations.odex to "SystemAppBackup" folder (I have SystemApp Remover installed), and then used SystemApp Remover' recovery function but it didn't work.
Try with Messaging.apk and Messaging.odex. (you can copy those files in your /system/app folder also using adb if you have Android SDK installed on your computer)
Currently I am at work and I don't have the usb cable with me, but when I'll get home I'll send you those files (if you don't get them by then)
Im pretty sure the app needed for sending sms' and settings is something like mms.apk, ill have a look in my system folder for ya
EDIT: yeah im pretty sure its mms.apk, id post mine up for you, but im on cyanogen so itd be a different app.

I tried in this way but the yaffs explorer I used cann't access the root under the Pays-ROM Defy v6.0, which works well under other stock rom. And before I found Root Explorer I have flashed another stock rom because I couldn't wait to stay with a rom cann't send and receive text message. Maybe the mms.apk is also OK.
Sorry for my poor English.
I'm runnin kings ultra r5 and need the easiest way to reinstall a few stock apps, i have searched so far came up with two methods one is with file manager app. I have es file and astro neither worked the other method i read on was pushing thru adb which is if i'm not mistaken manually typing codes thru the command ??? Which i am really not trying to do can i just flash them thru recovery ? I'm trying to install 2 stock apps which are on my sd card already,i'm running clockwork mod recovery also.... Any help would be appreciated thanks ...............
Place the apks on the root of your sdcard, then use root explorer, enable r/w mode, then move them to the /system/app folder, enable permission by long pressing, then tap to install.
Thanks i did forget to mention apps are in zip file also,same method applies ?

Do the method as I said, you just need to extract the apk from the zip file, then you'll be good to go.
I tried to take the messaging apk and the htc.ime apks from the virtuous fusion rom because i want to use them on Insertcoin_vision rom running 2.1 sense+ 3.0.Is there anyway that i can do this ??
Put the rom.zip on you computer and unzip it. Then look in system/app for the apk's.
Now there is a good chance that these apk's won't actually work on the insertcoin rom. For a lot of sense apps to work they are dependent an the sense framework and this varys from version to version.
Easiest way to then install is adb if you know who to use adb, cool. If not I'm not going to explain here and you will need to follow the instructions bellow
you won't be able to install like a normal app you would have to place then in the /system/app folder and make sure the permissions were set correctly. The best way to do this is using root explorer or something similar. Place the apk on your sd card and copy them to the folder. If your using root explorer once you have copied them th the correct folder press and hold on the app to bring up them menu and select permissions. The permissions need to be the same as the other apps in the /system/app folder. You will need to move the original apk before copy the new ones in make sure you put these on your sdcard.
Then reboot, but be prepared for the apps not to work.

Did you ever extract the keyboard from Virtuous Fusion? I am interested in it as well.
I have never used Virtuous ROMs but I am curious, what is special about the keyboard? Is it not just the stock HTC keyboard?

Thanks mate....it helped me too big time...
Sorry if this has been asked before, I couldn't find anything.
Where does amazon store the APK when it is downloaded to install?
I'd like to make a backup.
Thanks
Apps are installed to /data/app. You need a browser like root explorer to see them (ES File Explorer doesen't display them).
Or if you want to backup the ones you haven't installed but
have downloaded they will be in
sdcard/Android/data/com.amazon.venezia
The only file I have in here is a cache folder with a vnx26455.apk which I don't think is it?
I did find some in the data/app but not all and certainly not the amazon ones :S However most of the apps there seem to be the ones installed on the phone whereas all the other apps are on the SD Card.
I am using an HTC Desire running the stock rom (with root access).
EDIT: Managed to find them (I think) using root explorer: mnt/asec/ - although they are all called pkg.apk :S
Thanks
mine was in /sdcard/download folder

You will find it
HERE:
/Android/Data/com.amazon.mShop.android/files
The obb/data is merged in the APK itself
Hope that helps ?
:good:
BTW: make sure to get it before installation.. Cuz i think it will delete itself once it installed
hi guys, just switched to cm7.1, its a good rom, i was wondering if its possible to add your own apps into the rom and then flashing it? what i mean is to add your own essential apps into the rom and then to zip it so it uses up more rom space and leaves more internal space. if there is a method, can some one please give some idea on it. thanks
Of course it is. Just copy the app's apk from /data/app in the /system/app folder of the zip file.
Thanks but can you explain abit more in detail please, like if i put the apks in that folder, will the apps automaically be installed? and as for the rom zip file, will that need to be zipped up back in a special way? also will the apk's need to be signed with a special program? a small accurate guid would be sweet. thanks
There are two ways, either manually open the zip (no need to extract it) then just drag and drop your apk files to the System/app folder or data/app folder then close the window. Sometimes it doesnt work it depends I think on how the files was compiled or something.
Or use ROM manager. Look it up in the forums.
Edit: Its Rom Editor if my memory recalls it correctly.

No, just open the zip and stick the apk's in that directory. Then when you go to flash just disable signature verification..
I'm not sure as to how this will go about saving space though.. it's the same as installing apps AFAIK

In a way it does save space. I remove some apps that I don't need from the CM zip like ROM Manager, live wall paper etc and then add my apk files on system instead of it being saved in data folder.
Sthankyou, can i manually move apps in the data folder into the system with root explorer? i am s-off.

with root explorer yes, but I don't think they'll actually be installed just by putting them there..

Yes you can manually install apks to the system/app using root explorer. But you have to modify the permission of the apk file upon transferring. It is best that you first copy the apk from the data/app folder to sd. Then uninstall the app. Then use root explorer to transfer the app from sd to system/app. Update the permission then reboot.
Take note that not all apps will work with this method. Some apps just needed to be on the data/app folder based on my experience.
