[Q] pushing problems - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so i have been trying to port over some apks. most of them are system apk's sysUI,Framework witch all push just fine after the port and repackage but com.htc resources fails to push and says not enough space on device. i have searched some stuff on here but no definite answers. i tried deleting the apk then pushing the new one with no luck. at 1st i thought maybe i was pushing to the wrong spot so i checked then checked again "system/framework" i dont know what else to really do in this. any help would be appreciated .
Thank you
EDIT: when i make a flashable zip it seems to work just fine. i guess i could just test my work this way but i would rather be able to just push.

Maybe try qtadb

cannot find 'My' or one of its components!!!!!!! PROBLEM

My
Cannot find 'My' (or one of its components) Make sure path and file name are correct and all required libraries are available.
I get this everytime I soft reset the phone (xda2s) I have searched forum after forum, but no real answer.
I also find this 0kb file in varying places "Ignore_my_docs"
have tried deleting it and have tried unistalling programs and reinstalling them to see if it is something left behind by previous installation of something.
PLEASE HELP guys
I am off to the States at the weekend and would rely heavily on my xda2s for comunication with family and work at home.. would prefer to sort out before I go if possible..
Stay Happy

[Question] ADB pull/dump help. PLEASE

first thing i want to do is say i know this is not a q/a forum and i'm sorry for posting a question. i hope this does not get me banned, but i needed a devs assistance, not the random advice of people as inexperienced as myself, and thought this the best place to seek it. if this is completely the wrong place, please just move it and don't delete/lock it on me. I have looked everywhere i knew before turning to this section of the forums to ask questions like this. i am an aspiring dev, and am trying to learn the tools and cannot figure anything out when it comes to adb. ive spent hours on here. androidcentral. and google. almost 5 tonight alone on this one specific problem. all leading me in circles- giving me lists of commands and not telling me what or how they work and where the files i need/want go, or even how to access or create them.
heres the thing. i can make themes. change elements on my phone, make cwm3 files and flash them great. ive done a lot of custom tweaks and swaps to and between my favorite roms and themes.
NOW i want to get a copy of my system. an image of it; like nandroid only something i can view/edit. something similar to one of those zips i downloaded for the roms i've been playing with. something i can click through and view. nandroid is an image- an image that i cannot even get to emulate with my regular virtual disk emulators. im getting pissed. i got told to do a system dump with adb. what good does that do me? ive done about 50 tonight. i cant find where the stupid things even dump TO. all i want is a file that has all everything i need in it that i've changed. somethign with my framework, twframework, apps, and all the other system changes that ive done and im ready to throw my damned computer and phone into my wall. ive sat here for over 4 hours, on here, android central, and google. and i'm still effing lost. the ONLY thing i've acomplished is to figure out how to use cmd prompt to enable adb. thats IT. im ready to scream. PLEASE- someone tell me how i can make this stupid phone dump the files i want/need onto my computer or sd card or someplace accessable. someplace that i could, in theory, open and view and use to make a theme/rom of my own. sorry for ranting but im really irritated right now on account of the hours i've spent and gotten NOWHERE. please help me (and please dont send me on to a post or a website that just tells me what the commands are. i know what they are. i have lists and lists of them. thats all ive been able to find tonight. i want to know HOW to use them, where they dump to, and how to make a useable file FROM them.)
I only got thru half of this, but search for unyaffs to extract a nandroid backup, essentially giving u a copy of your /system folder.
EDIT: attached. Create your backup through clockwork. Copy the backup folder to your computer, paste this zip inside that folder, extract, open up DOS prompt (go to that folder), type unyaffs system.img . I recommend a google search for unyaffs for more detailed info, as this thread will prob be moved/closed.
.. causes clutter for people looking through actual development projects.
close away. THANK YOU. thats what ive been trying to do with adb and figure out for hours. thank you thank you.
Np. ..went thru hell looking for that a while back.

[Q] Wifi Error after updating Wireless N

So I was there with the perfect setup, but I was browsing the Rom Manager and noticed a Wifi N enabler in the Radios section. Looks good right? If anything breaks I can revert to a backup? Right? No. Wrong. I flashed it while running the latest Tiamat on cyanogen 7 rc1. Thing is... not only is it not compatible with Tiamat, but it's also not needed on cyanogen 7... now all my backups come complete with wifi that gives me Error when I try to use it. What do I do?
Still need some help. How can I reset my wifi? Would a factory reset be the only way?
I hate people that bump their own threads and I hate doing it, but I'm desperate. What can fix my wifi? I've tried everything! It's killing my battery.

I'll help you because I feel your pain. Didn't have internet for a week once and I pretty much had to walk around the house with an extension cord. Can only help bump though, can't answer it. I believe my Speedy already supports wireless n =)

snowblower, you should be able to simply copy and paste the bcm4329.ko file from original rom zip into /system/lib/modules/ with an app like Root Explorer.
Extract the file from the rom archive.
Go to extracted location.
Copy the file.
Navigate to /system/lib/modules/ on your phone.
Mount R/W.
Paste the file.
Change the permissions to rw-r--r--. (Long-press file)
Change Owner and Group to 0 - root. (Also long-press)
Mount R/O.
Reboot phone.
(You can also accomplish all the steps above with ADB if you don't want to install Root Explorer.)
I've been trying to get wireless N working on my EVO for days now, but nothing seems to work and I can't for the life of me figure out why. Luckily, the method described above always seems to fix my WiFi if something I try breaks it. Hope it works for you!

[Q] Help with backing up virtual sd-card

OK, so I fell victim to the JB bootloop/failure to restore a nandroid in CWM/failure to install any rom in cwm without a bootloop. From what I've gathered, the only fix for my soft-brick is to return to stock, which of course deletes /data/media. I've tried to back it up with root toolkit, but did not get everything on the VSD. I've tried pulling everything from it using ADB...same result. Yet, adb shell ls /data/media/ shows it's all there. Can anyone tell me how I can download the entire contents, or fix the bootloop problem (preferred)? I'm under the gun here, as I need my phone for work tomorrow, yet don't want to lose all of my stuff. Please halp!
Try pull folders I.e. Dcim folder instead of the whole camera folder. If all else fails try individual files

I tried pulling the missing individual folders and it didn't work. All I can figure is that it has something to do with the syntax of the file/folder names, similar to the 8.3 issues between windows and dos, of many years ago.
Thank you, though, for your reply!
Have you tried reinstalling adb drivers. I think the downfall of no external sdcard is what you see here. That's why I always sync pics with google+. Food for thought.
Sent from my GT-P7310 using Tapatalk 2
Yeah, I have. No luck.
Had to reactivate my TB...what a hassle. Hopefully, someone can come up with a fix for this. Should have done a lot more research before I flashed JB. I usually do, but I've become a bit complacent, because I've never had anything like this happen to me. Lesson learned. I just hope I can fix this without losing everything. Written a lot of excerpts for what, some day, will be my novel. F!
Can anyone, at least, point me in the right direction? I'm getting so frustrated. I know the dev forums are the place to get answers, but I also know I can't post this sort of question there, without getting deleted or, worse, chastised.

What command are you using?
adb pull /sdcard/
should pull everything. However (from personal experience) it won't work if you have files with weird characters in the filename.

No, adb pull /data/media/ From what I understand, that's where the virtual SD is.
So, I've been able to pull specific files and folders using adb, but I can't get certain folders that contain spaces in the names. Is there a special character to replace the space? If not, is there a way to rename said folders, in shell, so I can pull them?

problems sideloading google play apk

hello all, I have a few problems with the process of sideloading google play onto my ouya, i am not a skilled android user but i am familiar w/ them and am a good reader/listener but i havent seen this issue anywhere so i hope someone here would be willing to help me out.
my goal was to sideload google play apk on my ouya. I successfully rooted it, installed the xposed framework and used ADB to push the ps4ouya_script contents onto my system.
it worked, but not fully. some of the files were successfully transferred but 2 technically did not. they show up, but are broken.
com.android.vending.apk and com.google.android.gms.apk are showing up as 0kb in system/app and I cant remove them. everything i try (overwriting via file managers, command line, re-pushing) all have no effect.
what can i do?
i have read and followed multiple guides here and on ouya forum to no avail. i'm sure i messed something up but i am at a loss as to what it is.
After further reading it sounds like ouya toolbox might help me with the removal of the broken system apps and this mod might be useful for a reinstall: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2359390
I'll try it and report back, but if anyone has any thoughts/insight I'd be grateful.
EDIT
Ok problem solved, Mod Collection For Ouya [link above] was able to [properly] install google play and it corrected the problems I had. If youre new to all this I highly recommend using it as its idiot proof. well, it helped me
Now for some MC4 action!
