This is also the mod!
I tried to install this onto my phone by opening it with the File Explorer, but it won't install... what am I doing wrong?
The stock HTC one must not be an installable apk. You probably need to adb push to /system/app

I was afraid that would be the case. In fact, I never really became familiar with how to "adb push" apps and was never able to really find clear instructions. Is it just an alternative method of installing apps? Can they be removed by settings > applications > manage applications > uninstall?

adb push is just a way to literally shove files onto your phone. Think of it as just copy from your desktop to paste into internal memory, no interface involved. I guess that's why it's called "push," there are no questions asked, the job is done instantly.
To do it, first place the apk file in your sdk tools folder. Make sure USB debugging is on (Settings > Applications > Development) and connect phone to PC
1) Start > Run > cmd
2) In the terminal type "adb devices"
3) You should see your device serial no listed there. If not, don't proceed.
4) Type "adb remount". It should say remount succeeded
5) Type "adb push HTC_IME.apk /system/app" (capitalization matters, I believe)
That should be it. If you don't see the new keyboard in Location and text settings, just restart your phone and it should be there.
And as these are system files, they can't be uninstalled the way you mentioned. But removing them is very simple. Repeat steps 1-4 above, but then to remove a file type "adb shell rm /system/app/xxxx.apk" where xxxx.apk is whaver apk you want to remove. This is how you remove stock programs like Sprint Nascar, Stocks, and all that other junk.
I used eoe appinstaller no problem. Did you unzip the file? You gave to install the clucker apk and thw keyboard. The black mod is good!!

Always perform a nandroid backup before attempting any mods.
This is a tutorial on how to change the music widget to the one of your liking. It doesn't matter if you have the Dude build and want the G build widget or have the G build and want the 1.5Hr1 widget. This will work for any cupcake (Android 1.5) user who is not happy with their current music widget. I use a windows PC and I am not a Linux guru so I'm not going to attempt to tweak my tutorial for Linux users. Hopefully it's not to hard for them to figure it out from this. (I think it's just file path differences, maybe?)
First step is to have ADB commands working on your computer. Follow this link if you don't know how to do this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502010
Now that you have ADB, you have to download the appropriate music player/widget that you prefer.
This one is for installing the dark blue music widget with the off-center play/pause button and the transparent record and needle logo. My personal favorite for looks, but has a play/pause with a easy to miss touch area.
http://rapidshare.com/files/227653807/Music_fancy_widget_G_build.apk
This one is for installing the plain white and pale blue music widget with rectangular shape and the large play/pause button with it's large touch area.
http://rapidshare.com/files/227653907/Music_standard_build.apk
This third option is for future development. You can "harvest" a third music widget/player from a third source that doesn't yet exist using the ADB pull command. Lets say your using build X, but build Y has a theme available and you love the themed music widget on themed build Y. What you do is perform a nandroid backup of your current build so you can return to it later and install build Y and then theme it. (Don't waist your time setting up your settings because you won't be on this build for long. Just make sure USB debugging is enabled in settings > Applications > Development so you can use ADB.) You can skip this step if you have access to a friends phone who's already running the music player/widget you want. Connect the USB cable to the phone and go into where you run your ADB commands in Command Prompt on your PC. Type in this command.
adb pull system/app/Music.apk c:\your_path_here
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The "system/app/Music.apk" part of the command is case sensitive. This will create the Music.apk with the widget you want at the path you specify. Next you can use Fastboot to restore your nandroid backup of build X. (Nandroid saves everything. It's as if you never left.)
Next step is to rename the downloaded file "Music.apk". It's case sensitive and take note of the folder path it's in.
Next, enter the following ADB commands from the appropriate place in Command Prompt. (Start > Run > type "cmd")
adb remount
adb shell rm -r system/app/Music.apk
adb push c:\your_path_here\Music.apk system/app
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
"system/app/Music.apk" and "system/app" parts are both case sensitive.
saying no such directory, would apps to sd card cause that, and ifso what would i instead need to put in?
i never knew there was a difference between the music widgets...
whats different about them?
the gui??

On the last step, adb push, dont just put your directory, put in the file name also, Music.apk. For example, i put the file on my C directory to make it easy, so I typed "adb push c:\Music.apk system/app" without the "".
FYI - I have Apps2SD and I used the above command. Guess that doesn't make a difference, assuming because the symlinks say so? I'm such a Linux noob!!!!

I'm not a frequent Linux user, but I know a couple of commands. You could download the apk file to your sdcard and try this. This method is not recommended!
su
rm -r system/app/Music.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This will delete your old music player. Next, you can just install the new music player apk through Apps Installer or whatever you use in it's place. This will allow you to use the new music player as if it was any other 3rd party app. However, I recommend uninstalling it and doing it through the ADB push when you get home.
yeah the app installer method didn't work for me

Did you delete the original Music.apk first? Do you have cupcake, or are you using JF RC33 like it says in your sig? This music player has a widget embedded and needs cupcake. If neither of these is the problem, then just use the adb push commands in the first post. I don't recommend using apk installer. I just posted that to help out someone who was too impatient to get home to his pc.

Haha ended up doing it at home anyways. =D Yeah i was kinda doing nothing at work. So as usual I started fidgeting with my phone.
the steps given in the first post work perfectly...!!!
i am on ADP1.5H A2SD...Gud Work...THNX..!!
If someone could post screenshots of the different UIs, that'd be great.
For some reason, when I pushed the Music.apk it worked fine, but when I tried to do the same thing with the CalendarProvider.apk, it didn't....
This method works for me as well. How do you take screenshots with the new builds?
CalendarProvider.apk... Just do a normal .apk installation.
Does this only work for Rooted phones as when I try it I get permission denied
Code:
C:\android\tools>adb shell rm -r system/app/Music.apk
rm failed for system/app/Music.apk, Read-only file system
C:\android\tools>adb shell
$ su

can someone post some different download links for the two different music.apk builds? rapidshare has always hated me and will still not let me download either of them saying that my ip address is already downloading something. thanks.
Can someone post pics of all the music widgets in order to compare them?
I had a mod done to my widgetlocker apk , but i cant adb push it. Can someone please sign it for me so i can install using root explorer? Im not sure how difficult it is , so if its insanely hard or something im sorry for asking haha . Thanks .
Get apkmanager and it will sign it for you. Plus apk manager will let you decompile and recompile then sign so you can mod anything and it's a whole lot easier.

1. Add your JDK Directory to the Path variable (Right click on My Computer, Properties, Advanced, Environment Variables)
2. At the command prompt, navigate to the containing folder
3. keytool -genkeypair
4. jarsigner -verbose APPNAME.apk mykey
5. Push the signed app
sorry guys but im not real sure what a JDK directory is or anything. I didnt do the mod myself. i made a donation and had it done by someone on here. Once they returned it to me via email they told me to adb push it.. but i do not have any exp doing that and was hoping someone could help me out... there would be a nicely themed widgetlocker.apk in it for you haha
Different problem, same answer.
I have been trying to install a custom framework res for a while now. I am on a Mac. I simply have been changing ext to zip, unzipping, making changes, rezipping, using mv command in terminal to change to apk, and pushing to phone. It hasn't even kind of worked. Could someone please help? Are there any steps I'm missing? Do I need to sign the framework res apk?
Please help

Post it or post a link to it and I'll sign it.
That said, if you modify one apk it is highly unlikely you will not modify others (which is a good thing). Therefore, I would highly recommend getting acquainted with the proper tools.
First you will need to install the Android SDK on your computer. Here is the link:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html Bear in mind that to use it you will also need to install the JDK (Java Developers Kit) on your computer but the links are in the instructions so it is very easy.
In addition to the SDK download 7zip if you do not already have it. It is a free archive utility that enables opening and editing the contents of archives without extracting them.
Lastly, if you just plan on editing images download Stericson's autosign tool so that once you finish changing images you can resign the apk which is necessary to install. However, if you want to delve a little deeper into apps I highly recommend Apk Manager. Not only does it include a signing tool but can also decompile apks so that you can do deeper editing.

The framework-res.apk does not need to be resigned. In fact, there are few, if any, reasons why any system app would need to be resigned. Therefore, that should not be your issue.
That said, in the steps you listed above I see several areas which could problems so, it would be beneficial if you provided more information. Here are my initial comments:
1)When you are rezipping the apk are you recompressing the folder created when you unzipped the apk OR, are you selecting the contents of the folder (e.g. AndroidManifest.xml, res folder, etc. ) and compressing them? It is important to do it the second way I described.
2)No need to bother with the mv command as you are using it. Once you've rezipped the apk (it will likely be named Archive.zip) you will need to rename it "framework-res.apk" at which point you should only need to push the apk back to the phone. The process would go like this:
a)put modified framework-res.apk into the tools folder (located in the SDK folder)
b)open up terminal.app
c)type "cd " (without the quotes) and drag the tools folder located in the sdk folder into the terminal terminal window, and press Enter
d)type "./adb remount" (without the quotes) and press Enter
e)type "./adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/" (without the quotes) and press Enter
f)type "./adb reboot" (without the quotes) and press Enter. (The phone will reboot which is necessary to see your changes)
g)Marvel at your accomplishment
Obviously, you should make a nandroid backup of your phone first so that in case you mess anything up you can restore it as if nothing happened.
If you have any more questions simply post them and I'd be happy to answer them. I bought and rooted my EVO the day it first came out which was before there were any Mac tutorials and have since become fluent in adb due to lots of trial and error.
could you possibly help me with my widgetlocker apk? i have adb pushed ( finally learned how to do that on mac) and it still wont install . have contacted ultralynx (he did the mod) but im not getting a response...thank you .

Hmmm... If ultralynx did the mod for you it is probably already signed. I've seen some of his threads and he clearly knows what he is doing. And, signing is apk-modding-101.
Where did you ./adb push the widget locker to? /system/app/ or /data/app/? Adb push does not install the apk if you push to /data/app/
My recommendation would be to do the following:
1)Using root explorer, find and delete the widgetlocker.apk from wherever you adb pushed it on your phone. Exit out of Root Explorer.
2)Reboot phone
3)Confirm that you don't have any previously installed versions of WIdget Locker on your phone. From your home screen press the menu button and navigate to Settings-->Applications-->Manage Applications-->All and look for Widget Locker. If you find it select and uninstall it.
4)Assuming the modified widget locker.apk was signed you should not need to mess with adb. You certainly can but it is not necessary and I'd hate to confuse you with the commands. So... Instead, connect the EVO to your computer and mount as disk drive. Put the widget locker.apk you want to install on your sdcard. Personally, I would recommend creating a folder named Apps and putting it in there.
5)Unmount phone as disk drive and unplug phone from computer
6) Using any file manager (Root explorer is fine) navigate to the apk on your sdcard and select install.
If that doesn't work let me know

Thanks for the help okolwoiz. I am fluent in adb and have been hacking for a while. I think I know the problem. The mod I was trying to theme (drop down notifications bar) is a .9.png, which means it is automatically resized to fit the phone. These are different than normal .png files. I know i need to use a draw9 something file in the sdk, but I don't know how. Any help would be great. Thanks

If not, what else is done under the covers?
Also, what are the differences when installing applications
•From the android market
•sideloaded from web download
•sideloaded using adb install
•sideloaded using adb push
I copied this question from another place (I cannot put link here because I am new here) because I also have the same question and want to know more about this.

Some .Apk's can be placed in system/data/app while others can't , make sure the .apk you're trying to place in system/data/app is supported or you may end up restoring your device. if the apk can run from the system /data/app then yes with the right permissions ...
Apk's from the market will give you detailed info from the apk like permission needed , supported devices ect, even the developers contact info ( in other word they are approved by Google.
while "sideloaded" apk or web apk (not coming from Google) are pirates apk,modified apk ect. who knows what permissions it needs or what info you are sharing with whoever modified the apk...
So be careful what you get into your device and where is placed on your device

Simply placing the apk into the correct folder is not enough. You will also need to set the permissions to the same as the other apps in that folder (I can't remember the permissions off the top of my head). This can easily be done using Root explorer, or using an adb shell and the chmod command.
Play Store installs and sideloaded installs achieve the same result, however you will want to be careful where you download apk files from. Apps from the Play Store are less likely to be malicious in nature, and , of course, you should never be pirating paid apps.
Adb push would not be enough as you would still need to set permissions. Unless you are installing a system app, it is better just to use adb install.

Are you saying the "adb push" will only copy file into the target location but "adb install" will copy the file into the target location AND also set the proper permission for you?
With all of the usual warnings about the source/safety of "side-loaded" apps aside. . .
I simply put the .apk file onto the SD card (anywhere), and then use a file manager like Astro to "open" it (root access not required). You will be prompted to see if you really wanted to install the app. Then let Android do its thing. The app will be installed where it belongs, with all the permissions it needs.
For this to work, you must first tell the device to allow installation of apps from unknown sources. Go to Settings | Security, and check Unknown Sources.
Hi everyone,
There is a way to find the .apk of apps downloaded from playstore. ull need root and root browser, we will use here esfile explorer. open esfile explorer and press top left-->tools enable root explorer and show hidden files, then go to local-->device now go to file data-->app and thats it, to find system apps u can go to device-->system-->app.

Pull Apk in Non-Rooted Device.
There is no need of a rooted device,
you can pull the apk by using following techniques.
//_______________________________________________________
A) Using ADB
1) Determine the package name of the app, e.g. "com.whatsapp" (WhatsApp).
if you don't know the package name, you have 2 options to get the package name
i) Visit play store and search for the desired application, The link of the app contains the package name. "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.whatsapp" (WhatsApp) where com.whatsapp is the package name
ii) use command "adb shell pm list packages" , this will list the package name of all application installed.
2) Once you know the package name, get the apk installed path by using command "adb shell pm path com.whatsapp"
it will return the apk path of the application, like this
package:/data/app/com.whatsapp-2/base.apk
3) Now to pull apk, by using command "adb pull /data/app/com.whatsapp-2/base.apk"
Apk will be extracted to the same folder where adb is present
//_______________________________________________________
B) Using ESFileExplorer
1) Open ESFileExplorer and navigate to User Apps either by (swiping left to right twice) or (goto APP under Library in Navigation Drawer)
2) Select App you want to pull, and click on Share.
3) Share the Apk to another device via Bluetooth or to desktop via AirDroid,

ur right however, not all system apps are present using the second way, and first way is complicated for some people and might confuse them. if someone would want to change something he saw on google, that is connected to system apps or other stuff"like systemui" i think rooting and copying the apk from its directory is best. btw thanks for ur concern about this, believe it or not for the first 7 month i posted this it posted in android wear, and no one was commenting, i made it with the xda app, i think it has alot of bugs.

IMO, if one is able to root the phone, then he will certainly not find any complication in pulling apk using first way.

Do you mean you uninstalled one of the Bluetooth apps in System > Advanced Settings > Apps > All?
If so, please use some sort of root explorer app (you have to be rooted first) to navigate to either /system/app/Bluetooth or /system/priv-app/Amigo_Bluetooth and install whichever .apk that appears to be not installed. I believe this should fix your issue.

Interesting.
I've uploaded my /system/app/Bluetooth folder here. Could you please download that, extract the folder inside to somewhere, and either:
Push the folder via adb using the command adb push Bluetooth /system/app/ while your command prompt/terminal is in the same directory where you extracted the "Bluetooth" folder (cd DRIVE:\your\directory\path\Bluetooth (Windows) or ~/your/directory/path/Bluetooth (Linux) ).
or
Transfer the extracted "Bluetooth" folder to either your microSD or a USB Drive, plug it into your phone and move the folder to /system/apps using your root file explorer app.
Finally, install the Bluetooth.apk inside (which I'm assuming is the one you uninstalled since it is missing).
Let me know how it goes, thanks!

I don't have a /system/app/ folder, just a /system folder with subfolders, none are called app.

Can you check again? Make sure you go to your system folder from your phone's root directory. It should contain almost all of the default apps installed on your phone when it came out of the box (with the rest of it being in priv-apps).
I have the exact same problem as the OP - I tried downloading the said file but my phone says the file is corrupt - can someone please send an updated version?
Same problem, file corrupt.
Bluetooth got erased because the system detected that the app was sending sms by itself (or so it said) and thus deleted it. I have the same problem as the one above, the file seems to be corrupt and can't install the .apk
Please, if there is another way to solve this say so.
Same problem...
I have the same problem as above, my phone detected the SMS permission and said it might cost you money and recommend an uninstall. I never realised I would be able to uninstall Bluetooth without being rooted but it did it anyway - maybe it's an android bug?
Anyway, I tried downloading your Bluetooth.apk and reinstalling but it said file corrupt.
Any help would be much appreciated! Sounds like this is a bug that's been going around...

following this thread will allow you to reload the factory rom to default settings, including all factory apps and files. this is a "OEM reset"
to the fullest, bringing phone back to factory sent condition. (be prepared to do a few ota updates when done)
pay attn and read the whole thread (Yes I know its long) especially when it talks about SP Flash tool...

Thanks for the info.
I dont know yet if a simple apk via adb could fix the problem here instead of flashing the complete device
Fixed
Hey, I had a look elsewhere and found a forum on the Lenovo website (can't post link here), hopefully this will work for you too.
Basically you want to go to Settings>Apps>Reset app settings and that'll do the trick.
Good luck!
