Hi,
I've installed the latest Leedroid rom (3.1.3) and am having the sms issue (ie message fc's when i get a message and so i don't get notified). I have searched the forum and found that I need to to push mms.apk using ADB. Now I have used it before but for some reason I cannot get it do what I want.
Could anyone please post an idiots guide? I have already tried installing the zip using recovery but that didn't work.
Any help would be really well received as this is doing my head in!

Okay - managed to solve the issue:
If you have this problem then what you need to do is (thanks to hsnmz for the links and what to do)):
"well I did something and the sms problem is solved. I'll try to explain what I did
reflashed the rom via clockwork (I don't know if its necessary). booted. clear data of messaging app by going to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All and then the Messages (This does not delete the mesages). I also cleared the weather data (not sure if this is necessary, this deleted all the cities).
Then downloaded the sense 2.1 message zip posted in this thread earlier. Downloaded the mms.apk posted by seo in this thread.
browsed inside the sense 2.1 message zip (did not extract) and deleted the mms.apk file inside the system folder. Draged and droped the seo mms.apk inside the system folder. copied the zip to sd card. booted to recovery. mount system. flashed the zip, rebooted. and now it is working perfect, all the notifications are fine. Hve not checked the mms as I never use that.
hope this helps

Download the 2 files and as hmsnz says drop the mms.apk into the zip folder, then copy zip to folder on your phone.
Reboot using recovery (I'm using latest clockwork recovery)
Scroll down to mounts and storage then choose unmount system.
Go back to main menu and choose install zip, then choose install zip from sd card (not update), then go to folder where you put zip file and then choose apply.
When it finsihed go back to mounts and storage and mount system.
Go back and reboot. Should be fixed.

Being a newbie that is learning A LOT, my most recent question is:
If I have flashed a BYOR (midnight rom) then added the apk files that I wanted, is there a way of saving my modified ROM so that if I try something else and need to flash back, I can without reloading all of the apps from the zip files?
Make a backup in CWM before wiping, then restore it later when you want to switch back. That's all you can do as far as I know.

1st download Titanium Backup and save all your files on your and window information email etc etc . u hit menu then BATCH then back up all files and data ......
CWM ... got to restore n backup then select back up and let it work ..........
now after u check out the other Rom u go back into CWM .... RESTORE UR OLD FILE .... then download TITANIUM BACKUP and restore everything or just choose what you want NOTE: YOU CAN DO TITANIUM w the ROm IF U CHOOSE TO KEEP IT
Also, you can take applications from say the midNight v5 upgrade zip(use 7zip to open the zip file) navigate to system/app folder. Copy the apks from the upgrade zip to the same folder in the BYOR zip file; same for files in system/lib.
You can repeat that step for other apps you like from the midNight Extras folder.
If you ever have to flash fresh; then you'll have a rom zip pre-built with your apps and you wont have to flash each zip.
Absolutely utilize the backup in CWM .. that can save you butt ... before any theme, kernel or ROM install. That way if you hit a boot loop or freeze .. simply boot to recovery and restore your phone back to before that flash attempt.
Thanks everyone. When I get a chance I may try something different
I would download and install 7zip. make a backup copy of your midnight 5.0 byor zip incase you mess something up but not likely. right click on one of the rom zips and 7zip open archive. in that archive you opened there should be an sd card folder. open that and extract the midnight extras folder to your desktop (drag it to the desktop). open that archive up again and navigate to system/app. go into your midnight extras folder and copy all the apk's you want on your phone and paste them in the system/app folder. After this any time you flash this zip you will have all the apps you put in the system/apps folder and wont have to flash multiple zips for apps. this can be done for themes, boot animations, shutdown animations, fonts, pretty much anything you can flash as long as you know where to put them. ps always backup before flashing
I thought I read somewhere installing zip file with CWM, it needed the apk and another file (believe it was meta file)
Is this the case, or is the zip files with meta also for something bigger than just apks?
Well the title says it all... I downloaded and updated the non-paginated rosie addon/theme from synergy updater. I want to go back to how it was previously. I'm not sure how I can do that. Any help would be great.
just reflash the rom without wiping anything (ok, a wipe of dalvik and cache never hurts). you'll lose all system mods you have done so far, but it's the only way besides restoring a nandroid or manually replacing the files (which i assume you don't want/know how to do)
I'm sure I can do that, what files do I need to replace. I saw Rosie_scroll in astro.

lol rosie_scroll is the cache for the rosie on the sdcard that won't help. to replace files, open the zip you flashed, and find out what files it changed (ignore the META-INF folder btw, that's where the signatures and update scripts are). then just open the rom zip, and find the same files. now adb push, push using root explorer, or build a flashable zip of those files.
Title says it all really. I deleted the stock app for Contacts as I didn't think it'd make a difference since I had Go Contacts EX install as well.
But now when I try add contacts through Go Contacts I get the No application was found to handle this request message.
Is there any way I can reinstall the stock go contacts app? Without reinstalling a ROM or w/e.
Cheers.

- nandroid backup just in case...
- assuming you haven't modified it, reflash the rom.zip without wiping anything
technically this is reinstalling the rom, but you won't lose any data. reflashing will give you back the original contacts.apk
alternatively if you're s-off:
- copy and extract the rom.zip on PC
- locate contacts.apk within system/app
- paste contacts.apk into system/app on phone and reboot

1. The ES File Explorer is set as the default application that is opened when you want to select a ringtone.
Go to Settings, Apps, ES File Explorer, then press clear defaults. It should now ask you which application you want to use to select a ringtone.
2. You will have to do this again manually, unless you have your contacts on google or another service.
3. I'm not sure about this. Try deleting them by connecting to a PC.
4. You need to use a new version of SuperSU, I've attached it in this post.
Enjoy Jelly Bean!

Thank you very much! I have another question about the attached app. It's a zip file which contains META Information and binaries in a System folder. So i have to place the binaries at the right place in my phone (obviously at /system/xbin , /system/app ) right? And the META folder goes where?

No do not extract the Zip file!
If you have ClockWordMod installed simply boot into it and use install zip file command from it, and locate the zipped file (on your phone memory).
If you do not have CWM, use fastboot to boot into CWM (you can find that information on some other threads), and install the zip file from there.
Follow these steps: (except with the above zip file)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26328017&postcount=123
You have to copy over the zip file to your phone first, then boot into CWM, and install the zip file.

All Good! But i noticed another "problem" now.. in my Gallery i have a folder named "imageDownloader" who contains 700+ photos. I delete them all and after reboot it exists again. What is that anyway?
update: The images belongs to a folder named "07-11-2012_21-01" , it seems to be cached data of the app "Thumb". This folder is created by the backup, is located in sdcard and i can't delete it, even through my pc.. i don't know why :/
Unable to connect to Wireless N-only or 5GGz networks after update
I've been unable to connect to my home network on either band in the 'N' mode since updating to Jelly Bean. I have no problems seeing both networks and it says they're "saved", but when I click connect, it doesn't proceed to "authenticating" or obtaining an IP address.
I've tried several Custom ROMs with the same result, and I've never had this problem with any ICS versions and can regain connectivity by rolling back the update.
I've tried low-level troubleshooting (no network encryption, MAC reservation, multiple reboots, etc.) with no luck. I'm currently forced in a mixed N/G mode on 2.4 GHz to use my Wi-Fi.
There have been occasional reports of this over the last year or so on various platforms, but I'm wondering if there's any software/files, etc. that can be tweaked or looked at to see where this issue is manifested.
I cannot delete some files located in my /sdcard. I tried through "Root Browser" , through my PC... nothing worked :/ Any help please?

SD card ??
I'm having the same problem of being unable to delete some files off the internal sdcard. Anyone figure out a solution yet?

Hi,
I need to install HTC's Locations app on any custom ROM (ie: MyOneV or CM9/CM10)
So any1 can help me with this ?
(i tried it though, by moving these files (from MyOneV5.0FX Removed apks) htclocation.apk,locationpicker.apk,locatiooninstaller.apk in System/app folder bt it didn't worked)
When you move those files to system app manually, you need to put right permission rw-r--r-- then reboot.
Or the simplest way is, open the Removed_Apks_RC5.x.zip with 7-zip (not extract), delete all apks that you don't need and leave those location files in zip.
Then flash the zip in recovery.
And these files will not work on a CM rom.

:good:
Thankz
I tried that too, by removing all apks from zip keeping the said three files & flash it in recovery, still it doesn't appeared in apps!
Though i'll try again may b missed something or some file..
I just tried it, it works.
Your filename looks different, attached here the files from the Removed_Apks_RC5.x.zip, I named it to location.zip. Flash in recovery.
It Worked: Thanx
