deleted system app by mistake - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

Yet guys, I deleted my system music app. Now everytime I try to listen to music i get fc error.
Currently running newest liquid smooth rom.
Is my only solutiom to reflash? Or can I upload that one specific file to make it run properly?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

You'd be fine reflashing as long as you don't wipe first.

So I wont lose all my stuff with just a simple flash over my current? Thank you so much bud

No problem man. As long as you don't wipe anything you should be fine. I don't remember on liquid for sure, but most ROMs don't wipe for you. I know newts usually do, but most won't.

You don't have to re-flash if you don't want to. Simply use adb to push your music .apk to /system/app, install, fix permissions and possibly reboot. Done!

For the record, a reflash won't wipe your data.

Unfortunately, that's not always the case. Some devs such as Newt and Capy have built in wipe scripts sometimes.

Little Help.

I have had my Incredible Rooted for a while now. I am just not wanting to try out some different roms and kernels.. so this morning I flashed to Warm Z Twopointtwo using Clock work Mod and after it loaded up. All my apps would force close on start up. I could not get them to work at all, even after dl'n them again from the market.. what did I do wrong. I have flashed back to my original Rom and every thing is working dine now.. I really wanted to try it out. I like the look of the z roms. Any help would be awesome.

Did you wipe data before flashing the Z rom?
Fixing the permissions.. how so you so that? And I let clock work wipe the data. Is that good enough? Thanks for the help.

Ok I googled "Fixing Permissions" and it said clock work mod can fix them.. but I couldn't open clock work at all :-(

Its in rom manager. It can also b done thru clockwork.
sent from dinc
When clockwork wiped data, did it also wipe cache?
I thought Rom manager and clockwork were the same thing.. I can't get the app to open once I flash a Rom..
As far as wiping the cache. I checked the box in Rom manager, which I used to install the Rom with, it says wipe data and cache so unless it isn't doing it right. I'm not sure.. thanks again for the help.

Power down,hold power+volume down keys till u see hboot,then goto recovery, fix permissions
Edit :wenu install a new rom backup.then wipe data.wipe cache & dalvic(under advanced). Then flash rom
sent from dinc
Ok cool.. so install the Rom in the hboot menu instead of within Rom manager.. Gotcha. Will give it shot. Thanks a lot

Just to be clear hboot & clockwork are 2 different things.

Rom manager>fix permissions. I always have to do this after flashing but it works!

You install the ROM in the Recovery menu (black background orange or green lettering - aka Clockwork) NOT from HBOOT, the white background with multicolored text.
Two very different things.
While you are at it, flash Incredibly Reengineered. Fast and amazing battery life.

OK I got Warm Z working now.. Its very slick! Love the sense 2.0.
I got one little problem.. I can't get mp3's to play or come up as my ringtone. They are stored on the SD card.
I gonna go visit the Warm z forum after work and see what I can find.
Thanks for all your help everyone.

Interesting FC issue

Ok, so I am completely dumbfounded by this. Here's the problem. I download an app and in order to use it, I must uninstall then reinstall it. If I try to use it without reinstalling, it just force closes. If it doesn't force close, when I reboot my phone, I lose all the data in the app.
Also, today was trying to access my sound settings and the entire settings force closed. I managed to fix that by clearing the data of the settings within the application manager.
The weird thing is, its not just on one ROM. I have tried CM7 RC1 and RC2, SkyRaider Sense 3.5 and Virtuous 3.2.0
I am currently running SkyRaider. I have the latest recovery. I have tried to do a factory reset.
Any suggestions?

Is it a phone specific app?
HTCInc-redibly re-ENGINEERED
Its any app I download from the market. It even does it when I first flash a ROM with Gmail and Market. Then Gmail updates its fine.

Does it matter if its stored on sd? Is sd formatted FAT32?

Downgrade the recovery to the 2.x series.
Dinc running Magnolia 1.3/incedikernel/and BnB theme!
Yeah the SD card is formatted correctly. I have been using the same card since last July. And I don't have any apps on my SD card. I keep them all on my phone.
And I thought that you weren't supposed to use an older recovery?

UPDATE: I seemed to have fixed the problem. Insteadof doing a factory reset from the ROM, I did it from the recovery and it seemed to work. I'm still curiousas to what caused that to happen though...

Because a factory reset from the ROM doesn't wipe /system /cache /data, only your own information. You need to do a full wipe through recovery, just like you figured out
I had the same issue when I first moved to CM7 via ROM Manager. Once I followed the instructions at the start of the nightlies thread things have been perfect.

its a zip file and i tried to go thru the manager like i did my elite hd theme but it didnt work..
Older miui version have issues with theme manager. I tried 3 and worked only on one of them (beleive last pne but not sure). Theme must be .tmz or .tzm -,not zip and does NOT install with flashing like sense.

i got it to work.....I appreciate the help!!
Just for future reference, it never hurts to clear your cache or dalvik. I do it whenever I flash anything...or sometimes just because it's been a month since I have rebooted.
is there any benefit to clearing your cache or dalvik after deleting anything from the sdcard?
or should this be done regularly?
Just curious.
Thanks.

Here's the way I think of it...some flashable things require it (and usually say somewhere), but you don't HAVE to do it if your phone is operating normal, and your not flashing anything...BUT, it never hurts to...and the rest is me just being anal.

Kingdom Rewind Sensless 3d

New to XDA, first post ever. Has anyone tried the new Kingdom Sensless 3d release and if so can you tell me if youtube is working as well as 720p video recording? Tried to post this in the developer section under the proper thread but it wouldnt let me since im new. Would love to know overall thoughts on this release as well. Thank you!
Sent from my Incredible using XDA Premium App
I believe YouTube works with a workaround (wifi has to be on but not necessarily connected), but 720p isn't functional yet.
is my daily driver everything is working fine there is a lag on the 720 but the devs have explained that is do to the fact that they dont have the codes or something to build new kernels.. youtube works just fine... if you haven't try it yet just flash it... you wont regret it..
Sounds good. Thank you. And just to be sure, i boot into recovery, do a factory restore, wipe cache, then install the zip from sd card. Is that the proper method to install this or will that screw up my phone? Thanks again!

Also, i currently have a different sense 3.0 rom installed. Do i have to flash back to the stock rom before i attempt to install a new one or can i flash a new rom over the one i currently have installed? Thanks again peeps!
Sent from my Incredible using XDA Premium App
No you don't go back to stock before flashing, yes go to recovery do factory reset, then go to mounts and storage and wipe boot, system, data, cache go back under advanced & wipe dalvik. Now you can install your ROM

Thanks very much. Interestingly, when i go into recovery it brings me to a clockwork recovery screen where i cant do some of the things u mentioned. I only have the options to do a factory reset and wipe cash. Is that enough? Does it matter what order u do them in? I also noticed that in titanium backup there is an option to delete the dalvic from there. Is that ok to do?

Go into advance in cwm to wipe delvic

Also, you can format system in the mounts and storage menu. The rom's install script should include this, but never hurts to be safe.

Cm7 settings force close

Did you install SU after you rooted?
Did you wipe Data, cache and dalvik?
Keep us posted.

Have you tried CM7 KANG?
It worked great for me.
Also, how are you downloading?
If you use ROM Manager it checks the MD5 sum automatically.
If you download to the phone, you need to check the MD5 on the phone.
Also check the SU bianaries. Make sure they are up to date.
Have you tried a re flash or a fresh download?
I re flashed once and rebooted twice and the problem persisted. You suggested to reflash and my problem was solved. Thank you for your help.
