I have tried seems to be everything to install HTC Hub. I have tried several apks and even tried apks from custom ROMs with no success. Can someone tell me if it is possible to install HTC Hub on stock 2.3 rooted ROM or is there a flashable zip that I can use?
Is HTC Hub Sense 2.1/3.0 specific?
Yes. It is for 2.1+
You can just download the zip with all the ringtones, notifications etc from here:

Thank you but this is an old version and wont install.
You should send either KING or Virus or one of the other devs a message with what you'd like. They are pretty swamped but they somehow seem to try to get back to everyone.
Instead of installing it normally, you need to place it in system/app and set permissions to rw-r--r--

I would like to pull it from the synergy ROM but I am not sure what apks I need? Can you tell me what apks I need and should there be a odex file to go along with the apks that are needed.

Tried that and didn't work. Shows everything went through good, but still incredible camera.
Should be alternate or main camera toggle. It does work.

I've tried it 3 times and can't find it anywhere after I flash it.
I don't see that you responded to my post in your other camera thread, but here's a piece of it that may be relevant:
byrong said:
What version of recovery are you using? Have you tried manually booting to recovery and flashing rather than going through RM?
I ask these questions because it's possible that you are running a new version of recovery 3.x and trying to use the old update script. If you try it manually then you'll be able to see if it is failing to update (going through RM will just reboot and you won't realize it failed).

Here's an old zip from Virtuous:
http://files.virtuousrom.com/inc/extras/virtuous-install_evo_camera.zip
If you can't successfully flash, extract the apk from the zip and use root explorer to copy it to system/apps
Then just make sure to set the permissions properly on the file and reboot - that should do it

I have it. do you want it for an EVO based rom or Incredible framework, on a ROM like SkyRaider which is 100% incredible framework the EVO camera will work.. but it makes it so you can't send MMS msg...
I'm running virtuous so I would need it for that rom.

Can I also get the 100% Incredible framework version? Thanks.
I had that problem with the latest clockwork. Do you know if that camera will work on an incredible with Gingerbread?
I've looked everywhere that I can think of, or but can find what I'm looking for, and so here goes.
I was wondering if there is an apk available for the ICS Peoe app?

Don't install it, use root explorer or similar, move it to /system, change permissions and then move to apps.

Using root explorer, it's x x, x, x from top down. Use your file manager to check permissions on another app and use the same.

And then?
What do I do after setting permissions & moving to /system/app? I can't find any way to open it, and it still won't install ("Parsing Error")
Thanks!
You reboot your phone and it should replace the stock app.
I followed the instructions.
1. Copy Contact.apk inside system/app
2. Changed permission to rw-r-r which is same for other apps
3. Rebooted, I see get my xperia stock contacts.
I am sure I missed something, when I try to install from system/app it does not install.

Great, but some how I can't find the default contact.apk to replace
Perhaps my mistake, using Xperia Pureness rom, possibly its moved somewhere else.
Look in the themes and apps section, I've uploaded the apps folder for situations like this.
Sent from my Phone.
Okay I found out that this rom is using PhoneBook.apk for contacts.
I tried removing PhoneBook.apk and keeping just Contacts.apk reboot
Renamed Contacts to PhoneBook reboot
But in vain.
Permissions are same.
Now restored PhoneBook.apk until I find a solution to get Contacts.apk to run.
So I'm trying to replace some original system apps that i deleted from de-bloating. I basically just copy paste it via ES file explorer to system/app and change permissions to rw- r-- r-- and restart. I've gotten apps working using this method before, but some apps don't seem to want to re-install when I do this. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Which apps are you trying to reinstall?
Do they maybe have dependent libs? If I were u, I'd just do a nandroid backup, reflash the ROM, and maybe restore your data only from the nandroid.

The one's i'm trying to get back are VPN client and the stock music player. They both come with odex files and I'm pulling them straight out of an image so I doubt they're corrupt. I was thinking about starting over, but it's a lot of work redoing my theming. I guess I'll live without the apps for now.

What are the permissions to be set at? I pushed this and the stock file manager to system apps, fixed permissions via recovery, but neither work. When I use Root Explorer to check the apks they show different permissions from all the other system apps. MusicPlayer and SecNoteMyFiles show rwxrwxr-x while the other apks show rw-r-r-- I guess I need to manually change them?
EDIT - Actually what happens is they don't show in the app drawer, so I tried to install them from the system app folder, but I keep getting an error "Application not installed".

No go for me. They just don't want to work. I don't know why. I was on the stock ROM via ODIN. Everything worked. I pulled five apks from the system app folder. Three of them work, but the MusicPlayer and FileManager don't. I tried them both ways. I left the permissions as is, rebooted, and nothing. I did what you said, and still nothing. Got me. I'm running Jedi Mind Trick JB 3.

First I want to thank you, and say sorry for making you help me so much, as I'm now realizing it would have worked if I just used your version from the beginning. I've been trying to get the one I pulled from my stock ROM when I was running it. It seems my APK is not the right one. Yours worked the very first time. It's also bigger than mine by about a MB. Where did you pull it from? I pulled mine directly from the system/app folder.
Also since mine didn't work for this, or my File Manager APK, would it be possible for you to share that too? Or tell me where to get it? Thanks again.
Follow the white rabbit....

I was wondering if there was a mod or something that could make it possible to switch the sense lockscreen with the AOSP lockscreen. I hate the sense one but I also cant switch to a AOSP rom so if anyone knows anything let me know, thanks.

The AOSP lockscreen is already built in. The HTC lockscreen just automatically overrides it. If you freeze the HTCLockscreen.apk or use a file explorer to rename it to HTCLockscreen.apk.bak then the AOSP one will work on its own. The only downside to this is that you have to unlock your phone to be able to answer a call.

I never freeze it, I always use Root Explorer to rename it. And depending on what ROM you're using you have to rename the .ODEX file for the lockscreen too.

Ahh OK.
If it returns, then you're likely on a stock ROM.
Sense Roms are now system write protected.
Meaning you can't modify the stock system files while booted to the OS.
You can flash a script in recovery that can delete them however.
Most custom Roms have the system write protection removed.
You can also use adb while in recovery to delete files.
