[Q] Deleted DownloadProvider - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I just dumbly deleted those two files:
SecDownloadProvider.apk
SecDownloadProviderUI.apk
I am running LIGHTSPEED V3 ROM.
Can someone post me a how to with a link to the need files to back up the download applications? I think I have to change the permissions in that process, but I am pretty clueless...
Thanks!

You should be able to take the ROM zip file and unzip it. The files should either be in systemmapp or system/priv-app. Copy these to your phone and move them to whichever folder they were in inside the rom.zip file. Make sure the permissions are the same as the other apk files inside the folder that you moved the files into.

I just did that and found both apps thanks!
I pasted them and changed the permission to rw-r-r like the other apps in that folder.
But when I tap on the .apk files to install them, the installation fails. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks!

Hit dunt have to tap then to install. Once they are in the correct folder and you have changed the permissions, you just reboot and they will be there.

I just rebooted and everything is fine.
Thanks!

Next time, just dirty flash the Rom again...no wipes. Fixed.

Yeah I thought about doing a dirty flash, but rather asked cause I did not want to do anything more stupid than I already did...
About dirty flashes, my understanding is that there is no worry about dirty flashing a ROM update. Is that right? For example, flashing LIGHTSPEED V4 on top of V3 without wiping anything.
Thanks guys!!!

Sometimes. Usually a dev will let us know if a clean flash is important,like after big changes. But usually if you run into issues, the first thing you'll be told is try a clean flash. But usually it's fine.

[Q] how to undo non-paginated rosie launcher 1 on synergy

Well the title says it all... I downloaded and updated the non-paginated rosie addon/theme from synergy updater. I want to go back to how it was previously. I'm not sure how I can do that. Any help would be great.
just reflash the rom without wiping anything (ok, a wipe of dalvik and cache never hurts). you'll lose all system mods you have done so far, but it's the only way besides restoring a nandroid or manually replacing the files (which i assume you don't want/know how to do)
I'm sure I can do that, what files do I need to replace. I saw Rosie_scroll in astro.

lol rosie_scroll is the cache for the rosie on the sdcard that won't help. to replace files, open the zip you flashed, and find out what files it changed (ignore the META-INF folder btw, that's where the signatures and update scripts are). then just open the rom zip, and find the same files. now adb push, push using root explorer, or build a flashable zip of those files.

Account & Sync

Quick question: Which system app is responsible for "Account & Sync" in settings, at it keeps fc'ing for me?
Eventually i will try to adb push it from another ROM...
/system/app/AccountsAndSyncSettings.apk.
Cyanogenmod wiki for barbones gives a good overview about the most apps which come with android and what they do:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Barebones
To fix the force close, I suggest to wipe cache and dalvik-cache in recovery. This mostly solves it.
Dalvik & cache wipe didnt helped, and looks like this app is not there (atleast not /system/app) are you sure thats the correct app?
I'm not using AOSP ROM.

One hundred percent sure. I guess you get the force close because the apk is not on your phone any more.
Which rom do you use (according to your sig you use oxygen, which is an aosp rom)? I would say, download the rom's corresponding zip file, extract the AccountsAndSyncSettings.apk and move it with adb to place where it is in the zip file (which should be /system/app).
CoolSensation 3d v9, i extracted it from v7 (it's not here in v9) and moved it to the /system/app/ with Root Explorer, but still fc's.

You should update your signature.
Did you reboot after moving it? Otherwise the system does not recognize this move.
Yeah i restarted, no joy. This is really confusing, is it possible coolexe forgot to include it?
I'm too lazy to change signature.

I assume you flashed cm7 version. There one can find "AccountsAndSyncManager.apk" in /sd-ext/app_s (just checked the zip file for v9). Check if it's there. If it's not, download v9 zip file, extract the apk, move it 'back' to /sd-ext/app_s and reboot.
Fixed it with adb pushing .app from v7, thanks

[Q] HTC Locations' App. on other Custom ROMs

Hi,
I need to install HTC's Locations app on any custom ROM (ie: MyOneV or CM9/CM10)
So any1 can help me with this ?
(i tried it though, by moving these files (from MyOneV5.0FX Removed apks) htclocation.apk,locationpicker.apk,locatiooninstaller.apk in System/app folder bt it didn't worked)
When you move those files to system app manually, you need to put right permission rw-r--r-- then reboot.
Or the simplest way is, open the Removed_Apks_RC5.x.zip with 7-zip (not extract), delete all apks that you don't need and leave those location files in zip.
Then flash the zip in recovery.
And these files will not work on a CM rom.

:good:
Thankz
I tried that too, by removing all apks from zip keeping the said three files & flash it in recovery, still it doesn't appeared in apps!
Though i'll try again may b missed something or some file..
I just tried it, it works.
Your filename looks different, attached here the files from the Removed_Apks_RC5.x.zip, I named it to location.zip. Flash in recovery.
It Worked: Thanx

MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP FIRST OR YOU ARE A NOOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Download rootbrowser lite from the market. Now if you have the cm zip on your phone, navigate to it, open it, go to system, then go to app and find gallery2.apk. Click on it and rootbrowser will give you 2 options, click extract. This will extract just the apk to /storage/sdcard/0/extracted (its a folder now). Great now to add it to whatever rom you are running right now:
If you are trying to install the camera app on any touchwiz based rom it will fail, don't try, it will fail. If you are installing it on another AOSP follow the following directions:
1. With rootbrowser go to /system/app in the root directory of your phone. Then find your gallery2.apk and copy it and paste it somewhere on your sdcard (not in the extracted folder though) where you can find it in case something goes wrong.
2. After storing your old camera apk somewhere safe, go to the extracted folder on your sdcard and copy the gallery2.apk you extracted from cm.
3. Paste the cm gallery2.apk in the system/app root folder on your phone. It should ask if you want to overwrite a file (it will be overwriting your old gallery2.apk) just hit yes.
4. Reboot and hope for the best.
5. If it doesn't work try either clearing dalvic cache, cache or fixing permissions from your recovery
6. If all else still fails it means that the cm camera simply won't work with the rom you are using. This is why you made a backup. Simply find where you put your backup apk and copy it back to system/app folder and overwrite the cm one.
Once again you should have made an nandroid backup from your recovery before doing this so worst comes to worst you can always restore to that if you screw up.
If I have helped, please slap that thanks button

Rom flashable .zip not working properly

I made a rom with bloat removed and some of my useful app into /system/app, after flashing the zip phone boots to OS but
i dont see my apps installed into system, also the airplane mode toggle is also missing from power menu.
I trying to flash stock GB rom.
when i look into system/app using root explorer i can see my apps there with proper permission but they are not installed
What can be the problem?
Are the APK files well-signed ?
Try to install them manually directly from the /system/app folder.
Hope I helped.
Cheers.

I figured it out my self, those .apk files were having space in their name and so they didnt install in /system/app.
Great !
