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???

[Q] EVO Search Button No Longer Works After Google Search Update

I am on a rooted Froyo EVO. I had installed a transparent Google Search widget. The search button worked perfectly. The Big G issued an update to the Google Search app, and it was failing to install. I used Titanium Backup to uninstall my custom widget/app, and I was then able to install the new goodness from Google. Everything was great until I tried to press the Search key. It no longer works. So I checked my /system/usr/keylayout/supersonic-keypad.kl file, and everything looks like the default (I did a diff between my file and a stock file I found on here). At this point I am baffled. Any suggestions?
*To be clear, the short tap is broken - not the long tap*

Hmm mine isn't working at all now that I try to use it

Logie, did you have a custom search widget installed before the update, or was it the stock widget?

Mine doesnt work either. Not that I use it though.

You need to do a little bit of cp magic. I had this problem a while back, and this worked for me:
adb shell cp /data/app/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-1.apk /system/app/GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

how do i do this from terminal emulator?
Edit: fixed it.

Anyone know how to delete these suckers?!

I'm trying to delete the Facebook and Flicker fields. I'd like to use root explorer if possible...TIA
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Not too difficult, in root explorer go to system..app then delete. Make sure u mount as r/w.

Hey thanks for your reply I've already deleted the apk's but that alone does not get rid of the Facebook and flicker check mark field...not sure if you looked at the attached pic but it shows what I'm talking about..if you have anymore ideas please let me know!

I would assume one would have to be running a deodexed rom, then find a mod that did what u need

Greetings,
I'm also attempting to delete select apps.
I'm running on a rooted (Unrevoked 3.21 & Unrevoked-forever) stock ROM.
However, any attempt to delete an app while SU'd in Terminal-Emulator, returns
failed; read-only filesystem.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for all your time and consideration.
--Chris

The way I deleted these apps was the following: I have clockwork recovery running. So I ran that. Then in the recovery screen, You select partition menu and mount the /system. Next I ran cmd and opened the adb shell. The command to remove app is "rm /system/app/ + name of app" if you need more info, let me know.
Hope that helps.

Root explorer is so much easier, just download from the market open it up, mount as r/w nacigate to system then app and delete to ur hearts content

Sorry I messed this post up

Yeah that's what I'm thinking too..its probably something in the framework that needs to be deleted.

Updating su to 3.0 force closes

Anyone having an issue with updating Su and getting nothing but lag and fc's?
I was able to use the cwm flashable Su binary, for manually adding Su. That was able to fix the compatibility issue.
Just wanted to share my findings.

This seems to be the case for many others.

In preferences I changed automatic response from prompt to allow and that bypasses the FC but doesn't fix the problem.

I did a fix permissions with ROM Manager and restarted my phone. So far no FC's.

I had the same force close experience with SU 3.05. I loaded SU 2.3.6.1 on the phone and had similar problems. Then tried SU 2.3.6.3 and no force closes.

This cleared the fc issues? Killer to learn. Thanks for the info.
Sent from my ADR6350 using xda premium

i've tried all the options above, fixing permissions, downgrading to 2.3.6.1/2.3.6.3/3.0.2, updating the binaries and I still get the SU FC whenever it opens. Does anyone have any other suggestions to get this dumb problem fixed?
**Edit: 3.0.6 fixed it

I'm not getting FC's, but i have to go through hoops to get root access in adb. I used to just type
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
and i'm in shell as root.
Now i have to type
Code:
adb shell
su

Terminal emulator reboots?

I do recall in terminal emulator I used to be able to "su" and then "reboot recovery", straight to recovery I would go. Maybe my memory is foggy and perhaps it was my nexus one and G2 that did it and not this phone. I think at one point it worked on this device, now It just returns "sh: reboot: not found" . Was this perhaps something that changed from GB/ICS? Any insight would be helpful. Thanks

Nope it works great. I just checked it on my ICS build

In order for it it work there has to be the reboot binary in sbin and xbin. If reboot isn't working in terminal check those direcotories and make sure there is a reboot. If it isn't there. Find a ROM that has it and copy the file into both directories and set permissions. Not sure right off what the permissions are but look at the permissions of a file already in there and set the new file to the same.

cool thanks for the info. ill look and see but if memory serves me correct it hasn't worked on any custom ics that ive ran yet. i still cant remember if blazer on GB did it or not.

It is something being removed, rather than added, as it works in stock ICS (and GB) using the ODIN OneClicks.

cool thanks for the heads up mr. hub. just throwing this out there but i can recall a time back when i would flash most custom roms there was a t.emu that showed in sayyy titanium backup but couldnt be run. i would generally download a 2nd t.emu from the play store like the one in the pic and the reboot commands worked. im currently on frankenstein ego rom and upon fresh flash there is no t.emu showing in titanium backup. Like previous times i just grabbed it from play store and it was a "no go". could that be the issue of what is being taken away?
just wanted to throw this pic up because this is deff different than the "root" response i used to get.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

Do this..
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
ln -s /sbin/recovery /system/bin/reboot
mount -o remount,ro /system
reboot recovery
Or something like that..
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA

thanks chris, that did it. anybody have any thoughts on that 2nd pic i posted? with the "whoami" it used to always return "root" up until about the same time i noticed the reboot issue. i guess that one confuses me because i tuped "su" and the superuser allow/deny popped up and i clicked allow as isual. so with knowing that it seems odd to me that "whoami" returns "unknown". is that the same issue that was stopping the reboot command? sorry guys, i know its not real important it just helps me understand a little better about how things work.
