I don't see why you just don't open up terminal and remove it that way...?
rm -r /system/app/Maps.apk
that will not get it properly removed. but it will remove it.
If you need to get it properly removed ... try using the command above ... also clear the dalvik-cache or just find the maps cache and delete it.
also find your package.xml file and remove the permissions from there... (/data/packages.xml)
that will get it properly removed ... reboot after of course and then try doing what ever you are trying to do.
You can do this all on the device if you know proper linux commands like to move and remove and copy... etc ... you get the point ... and then use text editor from the market..
i hope i helped some ... i don't know if this is the right section for this though ... however i wouldn't have posted this in the first place.

Hi way2me25,
See you can not have both the maps (orig. and modded) installed side by side. You can try Titanium Backup (free ver.) and take a backup of your stock map app. Then installed the modded version and in future if you want to go back to stock, just restore the original from Titanium.
Hope it'll help you.
Thanks,

Thanks!
Installed, and everything works flawless...

yes, you need to have root access to use Titanium backup, BTW the apk file that is attached in the post 1 does not require root, you can simply install it via any file manager e.g. ES File Explorer.

[Q] Problem with DOOGEE COLLO DG100 - Applications not running

I've installed new firmware and I've rooted my device however I'm not able to download new applications and my GPS doesn't seem to be working.
Error "Package file wasn not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again. (option to uninstall is available but never works)
Does anyone else have these issues and does anyone have a fix most importantly?

Have a look at thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2479695 which has quite a lot of information on rooting and flashing this phone. For this particular problem, try the following:
1. Use a Root Uninstaller (I use System App Safe Remover) to uninstall Documents to Go, Skype, Twitter, YouTube and WhatsApp. Don't uninstall Facebook - I can't get that one to reinstall properly yet.
2. You can also uninstall unwanted stuff like 3D Live Weather, Weather, Weather Service and the Chinese keyboard if you want - I've installed Google Keyboard instead which seems much better.
3. Reboot the phone
4. Go to Settings / Apps / All and, for Google Play Services and Google Play Store, Clear Cache, Clear Data and Force Stop
5. Reboot the phone
6. Reinstall the desired apps from the Play Store
Docstogo won't reinstall properly - it'll give an error about a shared ID. Have a look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219029- use ADB (via MTKdroidTools) to copy packages.xml to your computer, edit it to remove the DocstoGo section, copy it back to the phone, reboot, and install from Play Store:
1. adb shell chmod 666 /data/system/packages.xml
2. adb pull /data/system/packages.xml
3. Now edit (notepad++) and remove the shared user in question xml block from the file:
Code:
<shared-user name="com.docstogo" userId="xxxxx"> (or whatever)
...
</shared-user>
4. adb push packages.xml /data/system
5. adb shell rm /data/dalvik-cache/*
6. adb reboot
Hope that helps.

Google Play Sore Error (-505) -- Lollipop

After updating to Lollipop on my Nexus 5, it restored all of my apps except for about 10. One of them is a widget that I use everyday called Simple Calendar Widget by MYCOLORSCREEN. When trying to download the app, it gives me the message "Unknown error code during application install: -505". It seems to download fine, but the message pops up during the install process. Anybody know about this issue or experiencing the same thing if you try to download this application? I also tried downloading the apk file online but that also fails to install. I can't find any info regarding this issue. Thanks.

I had this issue on certain apps as well. The dev of those apps needed to change something for it to work on Lollipop.

Code 505 is a permissions code. This typically means that the APK file already exists in your /data/app folder. You'll need to locate the APK files in question in the /data/app folder and remove them. You will need root to perform this action.
You came across this problem because you didn't do a wipe of your userdata partition when you jumped from Kitkat to Lollipop. I encountered the same issue because of that reason. I just ended up wiping and starting fresh as my phone hadn't been wiped since I got the device last November.

Are you sure? I flashed the factory image of Lollipop on my phone and it wiped everything. Afterwards, I had to also do a factory reset of my phone from the settings due to a storage issue. Why would that get left behind?
Edit: I checked (phone is rooted) and the app isn't in the /data/app folder

I spent an hour combing through Google group threads trying to get a real answer to this outstanding question. I was perplexed that only two applications of mine refused to install due to this error. The consensus was that the APK file was still there, or some remnants of data related to the application remained on the device that the Play Store service didn't like.
I ended up wiping my device twice:
Once by flashing both the userdata.img and cache.img files, which ended up giving me the storage issue bug on Lollipop. (Showing 16GB instead of 32GB)
Second by performing a factory reset from within the booted OS, which resolved the storage issue.
After that, everything was good to go. Have yet to encounter this error code again.

as long as you have adb working it can be anywhere as long as you know the path
so adb install c:\path\to\file.apk
as it happens with terminal emulator i could download the apk seperately, with other apps i'd probably download on my tablet and pull it off that

You'd have thought people testing would have installed enough apps to come across it and if google knew about it in october why not fix it

I had this issue trying to install Rom Toolbox. I uninstalled Terminal Emulator and the issue went away, probably because Terminal Emulator is included in Rom Toolbox.

How I solved it
In bootloader mode I flash from the factory image userdata and cache, then I wipe Dalvik, data and cache in TWRP after the first boot I skip the setup just too full factory data reset, in the second boot, I set up everything normal, but instead of restoring from previous devices I set it up as a new device, then I manually download the app that was giving the error, it installed without a problem.
I know is a little too much for an app, but it works for me.

I'm currently having the issue everyone mentions, except I already have ROM Toolbox Pro and was trying to install Terminal Emulator. Terminal Emulator in ROM Toolbox currently FC's on Stock (rooted) 5.0.1. But I use other features, like the Rebooter that I don't wanna sacrifice for just Terminal Emulator haha. Wish they'd fix this issue permanently

I know, that's why you can't install jackpal terminal emulator if you have ROM toolbox installed as it uses the same permissions.
Although you should read up yourself because if you did, you'd know the terminal emulator in rom toolbox force closes on lollipop on the nexus 5.

I understand this is a old thread but I fixed it a way that wasn't mentioned in this thread. Just thought I'd share for anyone googling this issue and finding this. What I did was go into the guest account and uninstall the app that was causing the issue such as snapchat. The way I caused it in the first place was installing snapchat on aptoide which installed it on both my account and the guest account and I decided I didn't want snapchat anymore so I uninstalled it but it was still there on the guest account which caused the error 505 whenever I tried to reinstall snapchat.

[App][4.0+] CM App Installer

Hi XDA
CM App Installer
NEW UPDATE! Added 6.0 downloads and migrated all source to Github
Download Here
New features include:
Ability to download different versions of the apk for different versions of android you run
Better server management
More compact install process
This application was on the play store originally, but at the end of 2014, it got banned due to a overlap in the developer policy
Just thought i'd share it here in case anyone was looking to still use it! The server is still available, I just released a material design update as well and considering I have brought the server space for 3 months it seems like a waste to let this one go
For those interested, CM App Installer will pull the latest versions of the apps available that CyanogenMod exclusively develop, and give you the option to install them to your system either rooted or non-rooted. I cannot guarantee success with this, I don't develop the application, my job is simply to make it easier for you guys to get your favourite CyanogenMod apps on your own ROMs!
Use carefully! As ever, I do not take responsibilty for any damage done to your device as a result of this! The root features use the code specified in "code" in the options menu, or it's listed below. If you're paranoid, please give it a read
I have to emphasise, please try the non-root method first!. The root method is designed as a last ditch attempt to get it working, it does backup and restore your old versions but errors do happen, expect this as a possibility if you're rooted!
The list of apps available in the application are:
Apollo
Calculator
CM File Manager
Torch
Messaging
DSP Manager
Voice+
News and Weather Widget
Trebuchet Launcher
cLock Widget
Movie Studio
CM Wallpapers
Let me know if you have any more suggestions to add!
The source is hosted on Github
Source code on Github
Code
This information is also available from within the application.
There are a number of commands that this application uses, it executes certain processes through the code to copy apps to the system directory.
These commands are ran as if they were ran inside the terminal emulator, and always consist of
process, remount to read-write, transfer/copy/rename, remount to read-only, close. (In this order).
I use a Process to get a SU Runtime instance
Code:
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
And then I use a PrintStream to issue the commands listed below to it.
Remount the system partition as read-write
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Rename an app (use move command to move with a different extension - Creating backups)
Code:
mv /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk /system/app/AppOfChoice.bak
Copy an app from SD card to System directory
Code:
cat /sdcard/CMApps/AppOfChoice.apk > /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk
Remove an app from system partition
Code:
rm -r /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk
For permissions, I use chmod
Code:
chmod 644 /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk
Remount the system partition as read-only
Code:
mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
And that is it. The process commands get pushed over the course of about two seconds, and should work. Again, I can't promise everything
Credit also goes to the Reddit member /u/wchill, his code helped with the system code (shown in the Code section above)
Similarly, I do not take any responsibility if this app causes your phone to be bricked, corrupted, broken, or to encounter an unfortunate case of spontaneous combustion. Use at your own risk.
In the mean time, enjoy!
If you fancy buying me a drink, see here!
Previous post
Small update to fix one bug reported by a few users, and added adverts. Lost the keystore again (apologies), so it's made with a new one which has been backed up everywhere

What about Email app?

Any chance you can get the dialer on this app?

Do the CM apps not get built with CM, and therefore if your ROM is latest CM you already have latest CM apps?
Does this work on CM11 and CM12?

These apps are quite outdated.
There is Apollo 1.3.4 though and its updated somewhere on XDA

No CameraNext! The only I'm interested in. Any plans to add it? Tried to download it directly from play store, obviously it is not possible.

I got this only for Voice+, I installed it using both methods on my Rooted Nexus 5 Lollipop rom, but I don't see it anywhere. I would love to have the new messaging app support Google Voice texts.
Is it supposed to just work with no configuration?

A question: why not just use Hangouts for GV/messaging using your GV number? I've always worried about how well Voice+ or XVoice+ work, had a few times they didn't use my GV # as I was expecting.

Dialer is very system-integrated, so I don't think so.. I will test it for you though, and add it if it's faesable, but it's incredibly likely that it won't work in any sense of the word

It should do. The apps are pulled from CM builds about once every month or so, or whenever significant updates are made to the apps that i'm aware of. There's no reason why it shouldn't work on any build of CyanogenMod

and i would love for these to be updated to the latest 5.0 ones since i tend to delete them on the 5.0 alpha build cause they don't work for now but would love the latest ones once available so i can see if they work better then what i already have :/

Hey there! Shame to see it got taken down, I actually used this since its earlier days on non-CM roms to get the file manager (back before I knew how to build roms). Glad to see the server is still up and now a thread is here. Keep up the excellent work and thanks a bunch!

Why do you think it's discontinued? Look into playstore and date of latest version.

Just thought i'd share it here in case anyone was looking to still use it! The server is still available, I just released a material design update as well and considering I have brought the server space for 3 months it seems like a waste to let this one go
For those interested, CM App Installer will pull the latest versions of the apps available that CyanogenMod exclusively develop, and give you the option to install them to your system either rooted or non-rooted. I cannot guarantee success with this, I don't develop the application, my job is simply to make it easier for you guys to get your favourite CyanogenMod apps on your own ROMs!
Use carefully! As ever, I do not take responsibilty for any damage done to your device as a result of this! The root features use the code specified in "code" in the options menu, or it's listed below. If you're paranoid, please give it a read
I have to emphasise, please try the non-root method first!. The root method is designed as a last ditch attempt to get it working, it does backup and restore your old versions but errors do happen, expect this as a possibility if you're rooted!
The list of apps available in the application are:
Apollo
Calculator
CM File Manager
Torch
Messaging
DSP Manager
Voice+
News and Weather Widget
Trebuchet Launcher
cLock Widget
Movie Studio
CM Wallpapers
Let me know if you have any more suggestions to add!
Code
This information is also available from within the application.
There are a number of commands that this application uses, it executes certain processes through the code to copy apps to the system directory.
These commands are ran as if they were ran inside the terminal emulator, and always consist of
process, remount to read-write, transfer/copy/rename, remount to read-only, close. (In this order).
I use a Process to get a SU Runtime instance
Code:
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
And then I use a PrintStream to issue the commands listed below to it.
Remount the system partition as read-write
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Rename an app (use move command to move with a different extension - Creating backups)
Code:
mv /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk /system/app/AppOfChoice.bak
Copy an app from SD card to System directory
Code:
cat /sdcard/CMApps/AppOfChoice.apk > /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk
Remove an app from system partition
Code:
rm -r /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk
For permissions, I use chmod
Code:
chmod 644 /system/app/AppOfChoice.apk
Remount the system partition as read-only
Code:
mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
And that is it. The process commands get pushed over the course of about two seconds, and should work. Again, I can't promise everything
Credit also goes to the Reddit member /u/wchill, his code helped with the system code (shown in the Code section above)
Similarly, I do not take any responsibility if this app causes your phone to be bricked, corrupted, broken, or to encounter an unfortunate case of spontaneous combustion. Use at your own risk.
In the mean time, enjoy!

A question: why not just use Hangouts for GV/messaging using your GV number? I've always worried about how well Voice+ or XVoice+ work, had a few times they didn't use my GV # as I was expecting.

That is what I currently do, but it is severely lacking.
I find myself switching back to the old Google Voice because it had far more features but lacks mms support.
For one it had a text message search,
2. Composing messages to new people was far easier and didn't search for my contacts in ALL of G+ (wtf is that about google?)
3. I like messaging programs that follow Material design guidelines.
4. Hangouts sometimes randomly crashes when replying to a message, until I go back through the whole process of finding the contact and messaging them.
5. Hangouts sometimes just straight up doesn't feel like using GV (...its like nah, were gonna SMS this with your real number)
/end of Hangouts hate rant

Thanks
