[Q] System/app

I would like to delete the stock HTC/Android music players and use Winamp only. Can I put Winamp into system/app and use it as the default music player? Is there any special way to do it and will there be any issues? Thanks in advance.

You can use it as default without deleting the stock player. Removing the stock music app could cause issues, so if you want to try it, I'd either back up the app with Titanium Backup (or freeze it) or make a nandroid backup first. To freeze apps - and possibly backup system apks - you need the Pro version of TB or another app that will do the same.
After removing the stock music player, if you do so successfully, it isn't necessary to move Winamp to /system/app.

Thanks plainjane, you always have my back. The reason I ask is I don't like a lot of different apps that do the same thing on my phone. If removing it might cause issues I'll just freeze them. I do have TB pro. Thanks again. Off the topic but, would you know why my participated topics are not showing up on the xda app on my EVO?

Mine don't show either, now that you mention it. I use Tapatalk but I've purchased the XDA app, so I'll download it & check there in a sec. I've never used the "participated" tab, though. I just go to profile and then posts if I want to check stuff I've recently posted.
If freezing doesn't cause any issues, you can then remove it safely. I'd make a backup of it in TB though, just in case. And since you already have the app, you can easily convert Winamp to a system app. As I said, not necessary, but shouldn't hurt anything.
Edit: No go in XDA app either. You can contact someone about it if it's a feature you regularly use, maybe someone can get it sorted out.

I did just reboot after I did the zipthemer 4X5 work space thing.
Sent from my Tomatoe-fied! EVO using xda premium

As long as you survived a reboot you should be safe to delete, I would make a backup of the app incase you run into an issue later on.
Sent from my -EViLizED-EVO-

Yea, I'll do that. I don't really need all the different music players and I really like Win amp. I like streamlined, 1 if my favorite apps for whatever I need. What I was looking to do was what you did with your apps from Go. Kinda migrate them in to the ROM.

Yea that's a lot of work.to migrate go that's y I'm building a Rom with em pre loaded as system apps so no one has to do all the work over and over

Evil, thank you. How did you migrate the apps to system/app? I keep getting force closes. Does there need to be an odex of the app as well?

Youtube

I'm not sure if its the phone the app or something else but my subscriptions are all gone and most of the videos I try to play crash the app. I have tried reflashing cm7 many times but it still occurs. No other app has any issue. Google search failed me so I was hoping someone might have an answer.
Thank you for your time.

Did you go into settings-applications-manage applications-youtube and then clear data? I would try that before anything else. Also, are you undervolting at all? If I go to low with setCPU, youtube is usually the first thing to crash.

Its the app EVERYBODY has this issue and its pissing me off
If you read the apps reviews there plumeting because they haven't fixed it yet

The comments are great, lol. But in an effort to stay on topic, have you tried uninstalling then restoring an older version through Titanium?
This has worked for me NM the past.
Also, though it sounds noobish,have you cleared Dalvik and formatted /cache under mounts &storage? Always ask the simplest questions first. Damn A+ steps. ;-)

Are both of your subs not showing up when you go to "My channel"? Mine wont show up on the youtube widget, but do show up when I go to my channel. I clicked on a few of the recommended videos and about half caused FCs!

I don't use titanium. Clean installs only. I don't nandroid ever either. I know all the tricks for simple stuff since I've been on xda since my Samsung moment. I had figured it was YouTube being YouTube and having issues with everything. But I wasn't sure until I tested stuff.

Its happenning to me aswell. I found a fix that works. Go into cwm and wipe data cache n dalvik. It will wipe everything and you'll have to manually install your apps but it DOES work. Don't restore nandroid. It will bring back the bug.

I saw this fix somewwhere and it worked on my gf's epic running legendary 2.2 and samurai assassin (problem originated for her on acs ics 5.1). I did a factory data reset from the settings menu in android. After the phone reboots enter your account settings and restore apps with data using titanium backup. Its a bit tedious but it worked.

Gtalk stops working after Titanium Backup reinstall

As the topic suggests, my gtalk stops working as soon as I restore my gtalk backup from Titanium. I do this ofcourse after a clean wipe of my internal data. As long as i haven't restored my gtalk data.... It works fine. Now I have finally recovered from the battery drain issues I was having earlier so don't wanna perform a full wipe just for gtalk.
I do understand that reinstalling the app from the market will probably solve my problem. However I am unable to find the app on the play store or even in my apps list on google play store. Any suggestions?
Edit : Now seriously men, 20+ views and no replies? What are we, iphone users??!!

Notifications keeps resetting back to silent.

I'm sure it's an app that's causing this issue, buy I cant figure this out. My notifications keep resetting to silent some how. Mainly my email notification sounds and occasionally my text message sounds.
Anyone experience this too, or found the culprit?

Do you installed any battery saver app? If yes check the setting for this app and stop the "auto turn off sync"
or install an app called " auto sync" available in the store..

Yeah I was going to tell you to go check what was the last thing you installed last? That might b causing the problem your having! Fyi
Most of those battery app's are junk and don't really help you! That's why I learned with my Skyrocket, not to use unnecessary app's. I've tried everything with that phone. And over time you'll see what is good and what is junk!
So NOW if you want to clear out the audio setting!
Then go into setting, applications, All, setting, clear data, reboot into recovery and then wipe cache & dalvik and see if it's still happening. After you set up your audio sounds! Might b something that was, corrupt in the data causing it!

Clearing out your setting data, you don't need to b rooted to do that FYI.
And another thing if it's a real problem for you then do a FDR [factory data reset] and you should b good to go then.
I'll say search read and you'll find your answer!!

Hey, I found out the issue to this problem.. Not sure if it can be posted somewhere as "Fixed"...or maybe I should start another post with the original post inside it for reference??
I had my Ringtones/Notification sounds I downloaded from the web or created on my SD Memory card. I was using the sounds from there and not the device. I have now copied and pasted them into the Ringtone and Notification folders on my Device itself and they stay.
To test this, I used 2 different Google e-mail accounts and set 1 Ringtone/Notification sound from my Device and the other Gmail account to a Ringtone/Notification sound from my SD memory card. The one from my memory card kept changing to a 5 Digit number. The other one didn't..
I hope this helps others????
