What can we do about force closing while trying to install Launcher2.apk on Cyanogens new eclair rom. It says we should be able to seperately install it bcuz he wasnt including it. does anybody kno of a fix or a workaround?
wrong forum.
did you adb push it or install from your sd card
yea i pushed it via terminal. i got the 3d launcher2.apk from kingklick v1.9 but it kept force closing

It can be taken as development because im sure everyone knows its FC'ing, and maybe someone in this thread could fix it and it'd be a hell of a lot easier to find here than in the Q&A section for someone looking for a launcher2.apk for this rom.
Please do consider that your actions are taken in to account by others in this forum and more so by moderators.
Just please be a little nicer, believe me i want to say what you said too.
id pass this as development.. im guessing its lacking a lib file
Looks at question mark* ' In this case it would be Q&A and there was a solution to this already in the CM thread

It's more a less a question, though.

Yes that's what I meant Besides YOU are posting on an rom development site anyways! What AREN'T you going to ask about
Reason why...
The hardest part about this is that only certain questions get answered on the Q&A section, and the vast majority of them are questions that n00bs were too lazy to search for. It is a valid question and yes it probably should go on the Q&A, but I doubt that it would be answered in a short amount of time. I also tried pushing the Launcher2.apk to this rom and had FC's all over the place. I tried via root explorer, via astro, via console in recovery mode and even:
su
mount -o remount, rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
install /sdcard/Launcher2.apk /system/app/
reboot
(this was in terminal emulator)
This also was just FC's all over the place. So I have a feeling that it has to do with either libraries or some other issue with the build itself. Hope this helps, and I'm sorry that you had to resort to asking this question outside of the Q&A forum.
Red.
Has anyone tried the Launcher2.apk from cyanogens Nexus Build? Maybe it works it just doesn't meet cyanogen's requirements so he left it off. It probably should have all the framework and libs necessary for it already installed too.

While I appreciate the praise.
Stop putting one liners in my thread...they clutter the thread.
I hate using you as an example but we're already on page 2 and I haven't even released the rom yet.
This.
Is.
Ridiculous.
I'm uploading the rom now.....if I see one more post till it is done...I swear I'll report my own thread and tank this project before it starts and move to just posting links on twitter.
You XDA newcomers need to learn how this place works. You need to READ MORE, SEARCH MORE, and then ask questions that make sense...and have information we can work with.
I've only been active on this board for 5 months. I spent my first three months (nov-jan) READING what came down and testing on my phone. I spent 1 year before that lurking when it came to my windows mobile phone. If it wasn't for supporting my rom i'd still have close to 100 posts.
Sorry about the rant....sad part is it won't do any good.
DO NOT POST UNLESS YOU ARE REPORTING BUGS!
So there shouldn't be any more posts till the link goes up.
respect.

Coming from a google build you need to wipe or you'll inevitably have issues.
Restoring data.img will cause the same problem
I would grab a backup app and try backing up your settings.

Any particular one recommended?
Why in the world would you spam a thread when the developer clearly asked you not to? Do you not like awesome free custom ROMs? Good gods.
Anyway, will you be making a light version without the theme? Will said lite version still contain so Hero elements such as the transitions? And lastly, we should be able to no wipe from Kabiore's Rogers, right?
If you come from rogers or sapphire/magic rom you shouldn't need to wipe.
Not sure about coming from hero.
Backup app: I use mybackup pro but this one seems nice too
http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.bg.smsbk
hm...correct me if I'm wrong, but can't you just pull /data/data/* and then adb push it back after you wipe to restore settings?

I'm pretty sure it's because it is odexed and a system file. You'd need to push both the apps odex and the apk to something like /system/app or wherever your system apps are being stored

im pretty sure its bad to push an odex file unless its for the rom you currently have .. bad things can happen ... just have to wait til someone de-odexes them (JF says that he's working on that)

For those who miss the IM app from CyanogenMOD which was removed after 4.2.9.1
This is intended to be supplementary to the recent CM-roms as the IM app was removed in the last few version
no "wrong section" crap please as from my experience with supplementary files, this belongs here, not the apps section

its here for a very good reason...
at the time i was distributing it via the cmupdater and had recieved 40+ emails of people asking for it (plus some more recently)
noone ever looks in the apps section and nobody took notice in the main CM thread
also, its part of the roms before 4.2.10 so i put it here as a supliment to the roms
i report enough "wrong section"s to know what constitutes being here
Daneshm90 is a clown... Good post garok89 and this is the correct section, its a system app having to do with the cyanogen rom, therefore it needs 2 be here.. ive been looking for this and i would never have went to the apps forum to look. This is jus like when someone post browser.apk updates or contacts.apk updates etc
Thank Have Daiis LooKing 4 it =DDD Plus When You go to CyanogenMod updater Is Not there !! OK N Sorry But How Do u Install It Cuz is not a .aPk ??
the way you did with good old fashioned stuff before the updater...
download it, put it on the root of your sd card
reboot in to recovery
flash it
reboot
its not an apk file as there are extra things in there that need to be shuvved in to /system/app etc to make it work

Rules I would like to see followed:
- If you quote there is no need to quote the entire post – quote the part of the post you are responding to. Delete the rest.
- THEME RELATED QUESTIONS (i.e. icons/wallpapers) belong in the theme and apps sub forum: THEME AND APPS
- If somebody asks lazy questions, just IGNORE THEM! They will eventually get the HINT! MarkP80nj Quote: "If no one answers you, maybe try learning how to do it yourself."
- And Hit the THANKS button if somebody helps you! It is the least we can do!

Raver's Clarification:
RaverX3X said:
let me clarify this after you install the rom do not change the mount to ummu It only applys to install (made moot after the new installer and i fixed the mount errror issue with the installer cwm.
What it looks like people are doing and why its soft bricking is after install you unmounting the system so when you boot you soft brick because the kernel cannot mount system... Because YOU UNMOUNTED IT.....

How i can get the blue eye (or any other) wallpaper again?
Which ROM was it in? Do you still have the .zip?
- Pull the system/app/Launcher.apk
- Unzip it. Yes, apk is a zip file.
- Look in res/drawable-hdpi folder.
Does the final.zip have a shutdown animation?
- In the Final.zip file in \system\media\video\shutdown - the folder is empty.
- If you have the BlackEdition.zip file in \system\media\video\shutdown - shutdown.qmg is in the folder.
Add back the 'Audible touch tones', 'Audible selection', and 'Screen lock Sounds' that are not in the Vahlalla - Black Edition - Final-Fixed.zip.

You need Visual Voicemail for voicmail notifications: attached below
Stock Clock & Alarm (soft alarm): attached below. If you want to use the Smart Alarms I attached the sounds below also. You need to copy the sounds into /system/media/audio/ui.
Sounds good.

Great idea lumin. Will keep this towards the top for sure. Maybe we can have Raver post a link to this in the OP with something like "Any non-bug related questions NEED to be directed here." Not that anyone will read it but worth a shot.
I would love to see the thread locked and pointed here – as of writing this the thread is already 147 pages.
That would be a bad idea Unless i locked the thread it would mean i would have to make threads for every damm update it did sorry not going to do that... Trust me 147 pages isnt alot when u consider some roms get over 500+.
Not to say i dont know what your getting at.

Didn't realize the OP could not still edit the thread when locked... I obviously have never locked a thread before. Thanks for the clarification.
Removed that part from the original post.
Ahhh - link back up.
guilty!
I like this idea, sadly we might not get to see it in action. I'm pretty new here, and as such, just like anywhere else I go when I'm unfamiliar with my surroundings, it takes a bit to get acclimated to my surroundings. This goes for anyone, anywhere. I asked for a font in the development thread, and I did this after a PM to the dev with the simple question "thanks, nice rom, what was the font in rc2?" No response, I'm sure he's busy. No big deal, so I asked in the dev forum thinking that a change such as this could be easily answered in the forum about the development (read: continual change) thread. It was simple, but people who were running other, more current versions than what I requested were answering me, when all I needed was an answer from someone who knew the answer.
The longstanding members are just as guilty in this forum for messing up threads with "nice work" that have less to do with development than "my DSP force closes but I'm new and don't know how to run a logcat, be sure not to help me and tell me to search everyone thanks."
I'd go back and delete all my non-development related posts but it doesn't seem that I can, if it's possible, tell me how and I will. I'd be happy to delete all 13 of my posts in the name of cleaning up the forum. My solution, in addition to the thoughts by lumin laid out above would be for a forum moderator to delete posts as they get out of hand. I don't know if that's possible, but that's my best suggestion.
It would really help us new people if the sticky threads in this SGS forum were up to date, as well. The bible is dated, I spent the better part of 3 weeks reading and searching before I was comfortable enough to flash a ROM.
That's my 2 cents, and again, I'm pretty new. Sometimes new perspective can indicate that new tricks are needed by old dogs.

I was on GB 2.3.6 or the latest one. I did follow the OP but I skipped step 2 because I read it wasn't necessary and I don't know what UMMU is.
I placed the file on my SD and reboot recovery from CWM and flashed it.
I have a Vibrant and just recently acquired this phone from my sister.
Please let me know if you need any more info and thank you for your patience.

I did this same thing once by accident. Not sure if *all* of this was necessary, but here's what I did to fix it:
Took my SD card out of my phone and placed the custom ROM (Valhalla Black in my case) from the Valhalla Black thread AND the Busybox Installer zip from this thread onto the root directory.
Entered download mode (volume up and down + plug in USB cable) at STEP 6 of this thread. Why from step 6? Because steps 1-5 refer to the transfer from Froyo to GB (bootloaders) and you are already on GB.
At step 8b you will be stock with KJ6 and CWM Recovery. You can then continue with the steps to install the ROM of your choice in step 11.
So now you're going to be following instructions from the Valhalla Black thread, BUT be careful because you need to install busybox before you completely reboot out of recovery to complete the steps in the GB starter pack thread! Flash ROM in CWM, then flash Busybox in CWM.
Do not skip any steps! As for the mounts question, when you are in CWM Recovery go to >Mounts and Storage and make sure that the mounts read "unmount, mount, mount, unmount" for the first 4 options.
Good luck, hope this helps!

Copy the zip to the root (no folders) of your sd card.
You must root it first, then install CWM via 2nd init (find it in defy themes and apps forum), after you installed it, press vol down key when a blue led shows up on booting, then using vol+/- keys and power button to select, choose install zip via sd card, choose your downloaded zip, reboot and that's it.
