Well, I have 2.007.04, and that file was in /system/app. Unfortunately, I don't know any way of checking which version it is.
are you gen1 or gen2?
i dont understand why it wouldnt install, i found another apk through the a500 forums, which installs, but does not match the version i initially backed up. and when i try to install the one you attached it just says "installation failed"
i wouldnt think gen1 or gen2 would make a difference, but if you want to check the version of acer sync, if your rooted you can load up titanium backup and it will show you the version. im at work right now so i cannot check mine to post the version but i will after work.
if all else fails i should be able to factory reset and fix it....

Probably a dumb question but you ARE placing the .apk in the system/app folder before trying to install right?
Its a system app not a market app and thats where itll need to be done..
Make sure permissions are set properly too...

check and check, placing in /system/app and changing permissions to match all the other apps permissions...
i will give it another shot after work, maybe i was having a brain fart but im sure i was doing it right..
Ok so long story short, couldn't restore it, factory reset didn't fix it and then my home button stopped working. Downloaded the latest dycrypted 3.2.1 update from dev section, flashed and updated to latest ota. Everything perfect again. Rooted and got everything all back to my liking.
Word of advice...don't depend on titanium backup to save your system apps lol.
At least now I know how to flash the update.zip and keep it on my sdcard "just in case". Thanks for all the help though guys!
Cheers!

Yes, you can use an app like AutoStarts or Titanium Backup to freeze the SystemUpdater.apk
This will prevent the pop-ups. Or you can just uninstall the SystemUpdater.apk altogether.
O ya thanks man I should have thougt of that

I too have this problem. I get the annoying "install update" pop up like 20x a day on my epic running rooted EB13. I'd love to stop it so I used titanium backup to freeze "system updater" but it does not stop the popups! So I think the solution suggested above doesn't work for me.
(It does make the phone crash back to the launcher if I press "settings - about phone - check for updates" though.
So, any other ideas? I'd flash a new ROM but I'm too lazy to restore all my apps and data. I'm waiting for a stable gingerbread ROM instead.
(Side note: new users can't post more than once every 5min on XDA. That's understandable, but frustrating that it applies to *editing* one's posts too...as I'm sitting here with typos I can't fix for another 4minutes. Oh well)

Alas, that was the first thing I tried. No such luck. It attempts to install....fails, I reboot. And then get the message again within minutes. I also tried deleting the update.zip file which was at the root of the SD card. This is maddening... sometimes it till pop up every 5 minutes (though it sometimes leaves me alone for hours too)

Huh that's strange I don't know then. Sorry bud. Only other thing is to odin to ec05 completly.
Edit: what u can do is do a back up go into the development section look for rerfs. What that will do is flash u back to a stock ec05 rom with cwm2.x.x.x then u boot up then u can flas cwm3.0.0.6 boot back up power down. Then boot into cwm let it reconvert to ext4 then do a restore of ur curent set up. And make sure u flash a kernel afther that and ur good to go.

You lost me with those later Instructions. My understanding is if I do a nandroid restore, I would wipe out my upgrade in the first place. To be clear...I did a nandroid backup of my now hybrid EB13 w/ EC05 modem system. If I then ODIN'd to full stock EC05 I would have to wipe my system of apps and data right? Then if I tried to restore the nandroid backup, it would undo what I ODIN'd and restore my eb13/ec05 hybrid setup yes?
In any case, back to the original issue, just for fun I tried to use CWM to install the update.zip the popup notification said it had downloaded (which I'd manually removed via astro file manager). This triggered a file not found error and it automatically wiped the dalvik-cache (whatever that is). I rebooted and... no upgrade message! (At least not for 15 minutes). Maybe that worked?

It appears to be fixed as I haven't gotten the pop-up all day long! I'm not sure which action resolved it (or perhaps both)
1. Flashed modem from EB13 to EC05
2. Attempted to install update from a .zip that I'd removed in CWM which triggered erasing the dalvik cache.
Anyway, now dispensing thanks for your help!

Before you go to the trouble of flashing it in Odin, try doing a full factory reset ....
Factory reset won't bring it back. That just clears data of everything on the phone.. but since its deleted, it ain't gonna come back.
Do the Odin flash. Easiest thing, will be back to stock. I just really did mines yesterday .. because bugged me that someone I got airpush notification and I have a habbit of the littlest thing PC or phone to just reformat

Hey ...sorry to hear..do a Google search for the apk you deleted.
On another note ..really shouldn't mess with stuff you don't understand. Try reading what others have done or if your really wanting to go aheahd make a backup first. No need for 3 posts crying..
Hope helps..

My Pictures aren't working, they arent being shown even when I take pictures, I think I'm going to flash a rom when I get back home.
Yes. Try to restore thru titanium backup what u deleted.
So, i installed TB and did a backup before flashing a rom... now i try to restore things but it doesnt find them, says i dont have any apps nor data to restore... i checked the folder, and its set up on the one where all the backup files are (/sdcard/Titaniumbackup) and i see the files there, but TB doesnt... already searched for solutions, but seems noone else has had this specific problem
so anyone got any ideas on how i can solve this??
thanks!!
Where are you encountering the error? What do you do for it to tell you you have no data to restore? Can you provide a screen shot? Also what ROM were you using before and what ROM are you using now?

im using RCMix 4.0 Energized Blue version, and when i did the backup i was on stock gingerbread tem-rooted (previous to downgrading). As to what i did...nothing i guess, just went into TB and when i went to backup/restore and selected batch and then went on to look at the restore part, it says 0 everywhere (as if there is nothing to restore), i've checked the folders and the files are there, so i dont get why it doesnt recognize them... hope this helps...
Can you try going to restore them individually? Maybe its a problem with batch. Did TB come preloaded on the ROM or did you install from market ?

and when you connect your device to PC ass mass storage (or when you attach your sdcard directly to your computer) what do you see inside TitaniumBackup folder? is it empty, or are there some files inside?
I believe I know the solution.
I think I had the same problem when I flashed NRG's RCMix ROM. Its an issue with the Busybox he cooked in with it. Don't know if its a version issue, or corrupt or something. But I think I downloaded the Busybox installer from the Market, installed Busybox, and Titanium worked fine.

Yeah, no problem... at least it was an idea... but nevermind guys, i can live without the backups... thanks anyways to everyone who tried to help!
Could you try to flash the last recovery from Rom Manager and then try the "fix permission" option?
Then wipe the Superuser cache.
For back up, I use Mybackup root and never had any issues...
Any error messages when you open Titanium? When I had the Busybox issue, I think Titanium gave me an error message (whenever I opened it) about not being able to obtain root, or something about Busybox.
Another thing about the Busybox issue I had on my Flyer. The Busybox installer from the Market that I've always used (by Stephen Stericson) didn't work for some reason. But the one by JRummy16 fixed the Titanium issue.
Again, probably won't help. But if you're still running out of options, don't think it would hurt to try.

Guys, thanks for the help, but already figured out the problem... its not fixable as far as i know... the problem is it seems it didnt create two files: <somename>.tar.gz file contains the data
<somename>.apk.gz contains the app
and thats why it can do the restoring
PD: thanks to guhl on #g2root as he pointed to me i was missing those 2 files

ok then find a zip that does work properly for you and extract your data and data/app folder if you like and place it in the new update.zip.
I personally take one of the inverted gapps zip or regular gapps zip and fix it to my liking by placing my data apps that I have gotten from the program apps2zip. By doing this you are ensured the zip works fine since its generic and you know all the apps from your phone should be restored properly. Just run fix permissions prior to booting up again
I find that some of the apps recover OK but some of the others will just FC; I guess it is the ones that have data that freeze - I end up having to uninstall and do a fresh install. I'm not sure this happened with 2.2.0,
