Its really simple download one on a site or extract it from a cm7 rom
Open zip tale the simtoolkit out put it in your phone :d

and always extract IN winrar (;
In some gapps it is included too, much easier than extracting cm7 or a whole stock rom

Well i done that exactly and its not working.
Changed permissions and ownership.
Downloaded 2 stk apk. files and try to install it butt always the same outcome.
App not instald
You have to put it in /system/app
Set permissions to rw-r--r--
Or you can use Terminal Emulator (You'll need busybox) and type:
Code:
su
remount rw
chmod 644 /system/app/*.apk
Then Reboot

and wen typ chmod 644 /system/app/Stk.apk and press enter it does nothing
i do something wrong butt what?????
(It's best to use a Root Browser)
You need busybox for the terminal emulator method. It includes remount command
If no errors were given when you did chmod 644 /system/app/Stk.apk
Then you did it right.

not able to push thrugh root explorer
hi there..first of all thanks for the new keyboard...love it....now the problem...m currently on miui trying to push the file thrugh root explorer but m constantly getting "not able to change permissions"(on the apk)....secondly when i simply try to copy and move the file in "system/app" m not able to do it..cause i have r/o permission and not able to change permission to r/w there as well...help me with this.
nevermind..its done..
I've managed to push the file to /system/app and set permissions (644).
Then I've rebooted and Android Keyboard is there but when I change the input method to Android Keyboard, the app is always shutting down over and over again (com.android.inputmethod.latin).
Permissions set to 755. No good too!
Any idea?
Edit;
I tryied with adb like this:
Code:
adb install /path/to/tile/LatinIME_2-1.apk
and I got this output

Well, I've managed to install it with some extra help
I'm on 2.3.5 JVT costumized ROM and I did this:
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
Close session and type
Code:
adb push \path\to\file\Latin_2-1.apk /system/app
Then, at your PC, open the apk file with winrar, extract the libjni_latinime.so file that is inside the ./lib/armeabi-v7a/
Then copy this file into your phone's system/lib dir with
Code:
adb push \path\to\.so-file\libjni_latinime.so /system
If no permission to copy, mount system again with rw mode with
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system/lib
Then reboot phone.
Please correct me any errors I could have made...
Worked for me
If u cant see it on input languages in root explorer delete LatinIME.apk and then rename the ics keyboard to the LatinIME.apk and push it to apps(adb push LatinIME.apk /system/app) it will be work.
Does anyone know if this will work on Sense?
Also does this give you the new version of voice transcription?
I have rooted my HTC One X and want to copy files in /system/xbin folder. My phone shows S-ON. And Eclipse is not able to copy files to /system and adb push from shell is also not working. Is there a way I can copy files to /system/xbin?
I am running stock ROM.
My phone is NOT associated with any vendor.
adb remount
adb push filename /system/xbin

You can also use es file explorer and go into the options tick up to root and the request root and then tick mount as r/w.
Then just move files as you will.

First of all thanx it worked. I think I will have to live with this way A ADB/Eclipse based would have been cool
Will the files moved from SDcard to phones root in anyway lose and privileges(like losing executable)? If yes, please suggest a way to restore it.

Yes you need to change the permissions after moving from sdcard. Use Root Explorer(Long press on the file--> Change permissions)

I am using SuperSU as Super User App. And I think I am doing something wrong here. You mentioned about adb shell su. I think I might be wrong here. Here is how I tried to execute the command.
[email protected]: <path to platformtools> ./adb remount
remount failed: Operation not permitted
do I have to raise ADB shell to SU level. If yes, how?

Strange. Are you using the stock kernel ? If that is the case then it does not have insecure adbd (ro.secure=0) so remount will not work. Try a custom kernel.
Does adb has SU permissions from recovery ? Try booting into recovery, mounting the system partitions and try to push something from adb. Check the SuperSU app to update binary but that should not be a problem.

Yes I have rooted the phone but the ROM is stock(I was thinking to put in CM9 Alpha).
About the second thing. I know how to boot my phone into recovery(Vol Down + Power -> From Screen -> Recovery(ClockwerkMod))
But about the rest I don't know.
Sorry about my annoying questions this is my first time I am dealing with rooting and stuff.

I guess you are using stock kernel then. Try franco's or faux's kernel.
adb remount wont work from os on stock boot.img.
After rebooting into recovery go to mounts and storage-->mount /system and then push something from adb. See if that works.

Well this didn't work either. I hope to switch to some other ROM in future(I hate HTC Sense ). But as of now Root Explorer did the job. I mounted my sdcard and copied files to it and used Root Explorer to move files to /system and then changed permissions.
Thanks for help it really made it easy .
make sure your path devs are oke for su.
in terminal run:
sudo su
adb kill-server
adb devices
you should see your HOX HTxxxxx nr.
and here you should be able to connect eclipse to HOX by adb.

The problem was not accessing the device using ADB. The problem was I was not able to write to root system. ES Explorer and Root Explorer both did the job for me. I will be putting the final instructions for the process(detailed ones) soon.
Instructions onw how to copy files to root file system on HTC One X with S-ON
1) Unlock and Root your phone. Follow instructions below
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIeq8Jx28cs
and then
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80lMHUgxwww
2) Install ES Explorer(File Manager) Link :- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&hl=en
3) Connect device to computer(even if it is not recognized by ADB/Computer)
4) In Phone select Disk drive option. Now the phone's storage will be mounted on your computer as removable device.
5) Copy the files you want to send to phone's root system to any folder here.
6) Change phone's mode to charge only and wait for 2-3 secs(let phone remount sdcard)
7) Open ES Explorer and open menu(those 3 dots at bottom and select Settings)
8) Tick the following options
Up to Root
Root Explorer
Mount File System
9) A dialog box for permission will open Grant it.
10) Now copy files from /sdcard/<Folder where u put files> to where ever you want o copy files to.
11) Long press on file to change permissions and stuff.

odex again is not so easy...for system/app i use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734236
but if you want also framework odexed...?! that is tricky...(coolexe helped me and maked a odex script for me..was written for desire..changed it to work on one x...) because you must look at the boothclass order (find in the kernel init.rc....if the order is a other then in the script you get a not booting rom....
if you want booth apps and framework odexed...you must make framework first odexed ""important"" or you will get a not booting rom...
here´s the new scxript for framework
for jb version of the script..take the one attached..and remove the txt...not the sourceforge version which is for ics
https://sourceforge.net/projects/alexvhtcroms/files/odex.sh/download
steps for framework:
adb push odex.sh /data
adb push dexopt-wrapper /system/bin +xbin (can be found in system app odex link)
adb shell chmod 755 /data/odex.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin+xbin/dexopt-wrapper
adb shell /data/odex.sh
adb pull /system/framework reodex-framework-onex
now you must manual cut the classes.dex file from the jar files...(be sure you have a meta-inf in each file)
after that make a new-half odexed rom..flash and do the rest with system app...
with kind regards...Alex

I think this way should be the easiest. I've been using it for a few months now and it worked every time without any issues. Just need to remember that every *.jar file in framework folder needs to have it's classes.dex inside (you can drag'n'drop the one from any other .jar that has it into ones that don't using 7zip). The script itself reads your boothclasspath and removes dalvik afterwards so you ultimately boot into a fully odexed rom. As always, it's recommended to make a nandroid before attemting to do this.

Could anyone help me out? I wanted to use this bootanimation i edited from a cm10 rom. Using the CM10 file manager, when I attempt to move the file it tells me "the operation is not permitted in current folder." When I use ES File manager it tells me that the move failed. Ive tried changing permissions on the file but it tells me permission change failed. I am rooted and have enabled root access on the file managers. I've also tried to preview the bootanimation using Rom Toolbox Pro but it says "failed loading the animation."
I have also attempted to use adb to push the file. I go into adb and first thing I do is make sure my device is found with "adb devices" then I do
adb shell
su
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip <--- at this step it tells me there are no devices even though doing "adb devices" shows my device.
Is this a problem with my bootanimation or something else entirely? Not sure what it could be with my phone, Im currently on CM10.0. Can anyone please help?
anyone??

I believe those other file managers, even with SU, still won't let you write to the system folder. Root Explorer has an option to use it as read only or read write.

Just tried Root Explorer and it still gives me the same error message when I try to move it "cannot move because file-system is read-only" and when I attempt to change permissions it gives me this error "permission change was not successful, please note that some file systems (e.g. sd card) do not allow permission changes"
I am at a complete loss as to why I cannot change the permissions for my files even though I was able to do it before in the past (same sd card). Anyone know a solution to this problem?
To make it easier for you just go to YouTube and click on change boot animation root explorer you will see detailed instructions
Hit thanks if this helps

Okay.. so I figured out why I couldnt replace the boot animation. I used ES File manager to mount the sdcard as r/w and it worked after. Now Im faced with the problem of getting a blank boot animation. When I restart my phone it just shows a blackscreen as my boot animation until it loads into the OS. Could someone mind checking my bootanimation zip and let me know if I have done anything wrong?
Hi all,
I have gotten myself into a bit of a dilemma here - I was playing GTA III with the input method set to "Game Keyboard", and then accidentally pressed the power button on my HOX. Now my phone is stuck with a lock screen (with pin code to unlock), but I cannot enter the pin as the damn game keyboard is set as the input method.
Is there any way to uninstall the game keyboard app from recovery, or a way to change the input method before the unlock screen.
I am running out of ideas, and my last resort is to restore a nandroid backup from a week ago ( I really dont want to do this as this means losing all changes since a week ago).
Any urgent help appreciated.
HTC One X
ARHD 21.0
CWM touch recovery
When you reboot it's still there? Try wiping the dalvik in recovery
Try this...
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
rm /data/app/xxxx.apk
XXX=name of app.apk
is there a way to list the contents of /data/app is adb as I dont know what the name of the apk is

Or you can flash this recovery: http://d-h.st/HiV
It has aroma file manager by which you can take a look...

C:\Android\SDK\platform-tools>adb remount
remount failed: Success
C:\Android\SDK\platform-tools>adb shell
~ # rm /data/app/com.locnet.gamekeyboard-1.apk
rm: can't remove '/data/app/com.locnet.gamekeyboard-1.apk': No such file or directory

Everything seems OK...
Maybe try from the recovery....
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Is it a system app? if so then use this directory:
/system/apps
Also if it doesn't work then put a -r after rm... mostly it's in /data/app
SOLVED: just needed to mount the partitions in recovery before doing the adb commands.
Thanks for your help!!!!
