Hello,
I have rooted my X10 and I have R2BA020 and I have removed some apps with Titanium, nothing like Mediascape or Timescape. I have removed Moxier, GTalk, Quadrapop and user manuals. Obviusly I have uninstalled something that I shouldnt ( me IDIOT didnt make backup of those apps in Titanium !! ). Now whenever I start my phone I get this message that it has failed to start and I must press Force close. I have found some solution that I delete data from Google Apps and Gmail in Settings -> Applications but it seems to work one time because when I entered my data again in Gmail I got it again when I boot my phone.
Please, can anybody help me ? Maybe give me GTalk and other app that was below it as .apk so I can install it ?
Tnx a lot !
Removing GTalk was a terrible idea.
I see that now I have found X10 dump and installed Talk.apk and gtalkservice.apk and I got GTalk icon but when I press it I get that message again. I dont get it when I go in Gmail or Market, they are working.
Any other help, please ?

You have to push them to /system/app, not just installed regularly
Ok, thanx. How do I do that ? I really have no idea how to do this, I have installed them only like any other .apk.
Thank you very much !
Assuming you put the two apks on your sdcard..
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtd2 /system
dd if=/sdcard/gtalkservice.apk of=/system/app/gtalkservice.apk
dd if=/sdcard/Talk.apk of=/system/app/Talk.apk
chmod 644 /system/app/Talk.apk
chmod 644 /system/app/gtalkservice.apk
reboot
I put them on root of SD card right ?
Only one last thing, how and where should I copy&paste those commands ? Can you please tell me step by step, I would really appreciate it because I dont want to flash my phone again. Connect the phone on my PC and then Start -> Run or how ? I can see that you are professional and it is very hard for me to understand how to do this.
Thank you SO MUCH !
Android terminal app, YOU NEED NOT WORRY ABOUT THE COMMANDS BUT CAN MANUALLY COPY THE INSTALLED APP FILE FROM sdcard/gtalkservice.apk TO SYSTEM/APP/ ENABLING R/W OPTION TOP LEFT IN ROOT EXPLORER.
I need terminal app on my phone or on my PC ? Here:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.android.term
Manually copy this Talk.apk and gtalk.apk file to system/app ? How can I do that ? I dont know how to enter system/app folder on my phone ? Also those read-write permissions, where do I change that ? Can I do it with Astro File Manager ?
Please explain me like to an idiot coz Im not far from that
And on the end, should I uninstall Talk.apk and other one first since I have installed them just like regular .apk app ?
Is this Root Explorer that I need:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer
Tnx a million !
I go in this Root Explorer and cannot copy Talk.apk from SDCard to system/app, it says that file system is read only. When I long press on Talk.apk in SDCard and go in Permissions there is no tick in User row, only in Group, then I tick Read and Write and OK but when I press ok ticks are gone again and I cannot copy that in system/app folder then.
Please guide me how to do it.

I have typed this in Better Terminal and apps have installed in system/app and they have permissions there but I still cannot get in GTalk on my phone, I get the sam error ? Is there any extra steps to make it work ? I have checked them in Root Explorer to see if they have R/W permissions.
Tnx a lot

They need to be signed with the same signature as the system afaik. You'll need GTalk and the other app from an x10 build.
I have downloaded Talk.apk and gtalkservice.apk from X10 dump. What do I need more ? I think I will have to flash the phone again since obviusly there is no solution for this...
Tnx
Hey,
I had the same pb and the code on the 1st page worked for me.
Put those 2 .apk files on the root folder of your sdcard.
Write the code on 1st page in Better Terminal. Reboot and you're done !
Good luck
Nope, I have tried it but nothing happened with those last 2 chmod commands and I have reflashed my firmware again and not touching GTalk app
Tnx for the info
Hey guys,
I just rooted my phone, and haven't removed ANY of the google apps and I'm getting this same error... Any ideas?
X
wouldn't hurt to try a re-root
I get also same error, even i've not removed Gtalk. Gtalk works properly
i found these apps so that the error is not repeated all the apps should moved to system/app folder using 644 permissions
i have attached the files at the end
Removed Gtalk
ok, so yesterday I was using Gtalk on my samsung captivate to chat with some friends,until i wanted to sign out and go onto another of my google accounts to chat with other people. but when i clicked sign out it simply closed the app then when i reopened it, it was still on my other account. well me being the impatient person that i am decided to use my root power and remove gtalk and try to reinstall it later.....WRONG.... now i keep getting an error... (com.google.process.gapps. has unexpectedly closed. well i though ill just factory reinstall getting rid of the error. so Now i cant download anything on android market to get the explorer back because i cant use 3rd party apps again because my settings.db was reset! so i need lots of help.. running Ubuntu 10.04 so that makes the process even harder for a noob like me -.- any help is appreciated in advance

I have read and still don't understand how to add back apps like Sprint TV. I have them all saved on my computer I just do not know the commands to get them back into the phone. Do the apps I want to ad back need to be in a certain dir on my computer first. If someone could explain or either point me to a thread that explains this I would really appriciate it.
Seems I found an easy way to add sprints, htc's apps back into the phone once removed. I saved all of them on my computer and used HTC Sync to install the app back. I removed Nscar as a test using root manager, rebooted and it was gone, then opened up HTC synch and added it back. Not sure how to get the odex files back in but it works with apk files.
AFter testing it om HTCfootprints it would not install this. Installed Nscar with no problems.
I am also trying to figure out how to add sprint tv back onto my Hero. I see that people are saying to use adb push, but I can't seem to get it to work. I just rooted with the new fresh rom and everything is great, I just want to add back sprint tv. Any help would be appreciated, thanks
Im a total noob, but I got it the apps back on this way:
Go to the directory where the ADK Tools directory is. Then the following commands:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
chmod 777 /system
chmod 777 /system/app
exit
exit
Then I copied the .apk files that I wanted to push to the tools directory
I am in.
Then did this:
adb push Sprint_TV.apk /system/app
I found it is case sensitive, so make sure you type the filename exactly.
I rebooted my phone and the apps (such as Sprint TV) were back.
I hope this helps, like I said, I spent an hour trying to figure it out, but this worked for me.
I would not recommend doing a chmod 777 on your system or app directory. Not that anything bad will necessarily happen, but it's generally not a good idea to mess with system file permissions when you don't have to.
Your procedure would work fine without those commands at all, in fact. You don't even need to enter the shell; just adb remount and then adb push.
those instructions worked perfectly. Thanks a ton.
I tried this with HtcFootprints. I removed the widget as well. When I added all 4 back in I can see the widget for footprints, but the footprint icon does not show up in the apps section.
Another thing of intrest. When I added Nscar back using HTC Sync, it now shows up as a third party app. It is no longer a system app and I can uninstall it like a market app.
Ok scratch that I did the Footprints again and the Icon is now there Thanks a Ton
I was able to push HtcTwitter.apk and .odex. i cannot get the widget to show up in the add HTC widgets menu. Any ideas?
Well, after trying my hand at update/rom modding with some success... I'm willing to take a shot at making update.zip files to easily flash individual stock apps back onto your phone. That's if there's any interest.

Easy Peasy App Install
I just copied the files to my SD card. I then browsed to the SD card folder using Linda File Manager and "clicked" the file. It asked me if I wanted to use Linda File Manager or Package Installer. I selected Package Installer and it proceeded to installed the package for me. Not need to get into the console or use any commands.
VOILA!
Anyone has the native camera apk? I deleted mine being a idiot, and I know I can just use the update service and repair but truthfully that's a lot work because of restoring data, root etc when I can just install one app :-\
(I have this thread in general but I'm making it in here too because I'm not sure if general was the right place to post it and its important so I didn't want to wait for it to be moved if it ever will)

thank you but it won't install. Sigh I'll just have to do it the hard way =/
You might need to push them both to /system/app/ (in root directory before sdcard) n then try instal using root explorer or similar?

I tried all of that but it didn't work
hi maybe you must give the apk and odex permissions
put the two files apk and odex on your sdcard
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
dd if=/sdcard/SemcCameraApplication.apk of=/system/app/SemcCameraApplication.apk
chmod 644 /system/app/SemcCameraApplication.apk
dd if=/sdcard/SemcCameraApplication.odex of=/system/app/SemcCameraApplication.odex
chmod 644 /system/app/SemcCameraApplication.odex
reboot
or copy the two files with rootexplorer (mount r/w) into sytem/app and give them with a long press on apk and odex the permissions and check
User- read and write
Group- read
Others- read
then reboot
i hope it works for you
try it with ADB on your pc and flash a new theme with a camera.apk...
that is the method of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742821

I have tried EVERYTHING I can read. For one thing, when I try
adb install TouchWizCalendar.apk
-> I get an error that says INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT
--> I have 64mb of phone memory, and my phone is rooted...
adb push TouchWizCalendar.apk /system/app
-> Permission Denied
I finally copied the TouchWizCalendar.apk back over along with the odex file to the system/app folder using Root Explorer, but the program isn't in my app drawer, and I can't even access it from my calendar widget on launcher pro.
Any help is appreciated... Thank you
EDIT:: I really don't care if it's the TouchWiz calendar that I install or the default stock calendar, I would just like A calendar... Any help is appreciated.. I'm still trying to get it worked....
EDIT::: I just checked logcat and I'm getting an error "Package does not include classes.dex" when trying to install. Anyone know why?
Okay, I figured it out... Sort of.
If anyone else gets this problem you should go to
forum.cyanogenmod.~com/topic/395-cyanogenmod-5-for-nexus-one-kang-central-station-v508-06192010/
Without the ~ before com. I can't post links.
Download Cyanogen's mod, and extract the file, navigate to system/apps and retrieve Calendar.apk and CalendarProvider.apk. Put those on your phone's SD card and install like any regular apk file.
This worked for me. It's not the TouchWizCalendar, but it's A Calendar, that is working atleast...
Have you tried moving the apk to the phone and installing from there and capture the log, it might give some useful information
Hi,

Reread that thread. The answer is in there.
Hint: ROM flash packages never put anything in /data
you can preinstall apps to /data/app but it takes update script modding. if you havent figured it out it is a lot easier to add them as system apps in /system/app
@Dani897: I try adding apk to /system/app or /data/app but none are working. When I add apk to /system/app; after the rom flashed and reboot, Samsung kept on flashing forever.

Thanks. How do i check permission? in CWM? In cwm (red) v2.5.1.3 -->Install zip from sdcard --> toggle signature verification-->disable'
In advance, all i see is fix permissions.

no in a terminal emulator or in linux. they get screwy sometimes if you do editing in windows. i cant even seem to get ownership of one of my flash drives on my linux machine after i formatted it with windows.
if you are on a mac you can do it by clicking and choosing "get info" from the context menu apparently but i dont own a mac so i dont know.
i never used it but check out cygwin and do some googling on permissions in terminal/console. it might be best if you are not ready to install a new os. but you can also install ubuntu with the wubi installer inside windows of use a vm with osx or the linux distro of your choice pretty easily. please dont ask for support questions on doing those things.
you can find permissions of files in a directory with ls -l
you can change them with chmod an ususally one of the numbers below but there are others, google is your friend
666 is rw-rw-rw
644 is rw-r--r-
777 is rwxrwxrwx
755 is rwxr-xr-x
644 or 755 are the most likely that they should be.
hello, I'm using this forum for some time, I even rooted my htc desire with instructions on this forum, so I'm very grateful for all...
I have CM7, on my htc desire, and a little problem! I hope you can help me!
I tryed to install black gtalk, and I uninstalled ordinary gtalk, without backup(yea,I know..)... Now I get only FC (process com.google.android.talk)
I tryed fixing this using:
1. root explorer (puting talk--taken from this forum,from several places into system/app from data/app, even tryed to fix permissions to rw-r--r-- and then put it to system/app)
2. terminal emulator (fix_permissions)
3. titanium backup (tryed to uninstall talk, reboot, and install...)
4. manage app/all/talk--> clear data
in one moment when I FC google services framework Talk opened and started ...Singing in........and it never signed but it's a progress
I didn't try with adb push!
Can you explain how? And where my app should be (in what folder so I can push it...)
And can I flash ordinary .apk file (just put it in .rar or?)
Can someone write step-by-step what to do, maybe I didn't do something that's very important?
This is the link I tryed gtalk:
