I deleted official google maps 5.0 by RE, modified instead. Unfortunately that when I update the system to 2.3.2 by hand, there was error " /system/app/maps.apk ... E: ERROR /tmp/sideload/package.zip", installation was failed.
What shall I do?
Somebody told me that the reason is "rooted", nothing about my maps. But my phone has stock recovery & rom, only rooted by superboot......

Put back a copy of the original Google Maps apk for 2.3.1.
Or you can edit out the patch and instructions to patch in the update zip; then use CWM to flash the update so you don't get a signature failure on the flash..
In one of the 2.3.2 update threads on here there was a guy who had the same issue you are, only his was with the gmail apk. Search through those 2.3.2 update threads for more details if you need them.
Thanks, buddy!
Firstly I want to try your suggestion 1st, put back the google map official version. But I can't find it in google market!
Ok, I uninstalled the modified version map and put the official map back from market. But it seems the same problem.
1) install clockwork recovery
2)restore nandroid backup posted here
3) and u'll be fresh stock 2.3.1 ready for update.

He'll also lose all his customizations and app data...unless he remembers to use Titanium to back it all up first.
What version does the app from the market show as? It needs to be 5.0.0.

If someone had the original apk, couldn't he just use that?
Just went into root explorer and found this so hopefully it helps. Let me know if I should pull it from some where else.

Yes, that should work if your phone is on the same Gingerbread build as his (assuming he's 2.3.1), if you've upgraded to 2.3.2 it will be a problem. What's happening is the patch is failing for some reason, I'm assuming it's because some check on the file shows it's not the right one to patch. I'd need to re-read the update script for sure. I posted it one of the two update threads if someone has time to go through it. (I don't right now.)

you would need to flash through clockwork cause you would need to toggle signature verification off. let me know if it works
I was having the same problem except with the market. I tried flashing it through clockwork but it didn't work. I then removed both parts of the script that checked vending.apk and it still didn't work. Next I just removed vending.apk from system/app then flashed the .zip in clockwork and it worked! The market still works fine and I still have root.

OK, so I finally got the system update for the D2G yesterday. I'm not new to this whole game, so I removed Clockworkmod, unrooted, and installed the update. The update downloads fine, but the with the little Android guy screen, I get an "!" in a triangle and then the phone reboots.
Maybe I didn't remove clockwork all the way? Don't you delete hijack and logwrapper, and then rename the logwrapper.bin to logwrapper?
well basiclly the phone needs to be untouch in terms of the file structure, in my case, I deleted a few of the stock apk files and when I tried to do the update it would fail because the stock apps were missing and the update is a patch not a full system OS so it cant install the default apps, I had to install them back to the system/app with root explorer and then set the permissions back to what they needed to be, unforchenitly a hard reset would not install the stock apps. Also make sure anything that the root touched has been set back to default
I have the same problem too. I can't get the update to work at all after installing Fission ROM. I even restored from a nandroid from a fresh D2G. It worked fine on the untouched phone tho. I checked all the files in the /system/app and they were there. Is there any magical restore .zip perhaps?

I never touched anything... I stopped using Titanium Backup a long time ago when I uninstalled everything verizon and had the same OTA problem you described. I am at a loss for the problem that I have! All I ever did was root and put on clockwork, and I made sure they were gone when I updated.
Please, someone help!
did you uninstall of freeze any of the stock apps in /system/app? You need to restore them in order to successfully apply the OTA update. One file missing or modified in /system and checksums will fail/update fails.

the only time I touched anything in /system was when I removed clockwork by deleting hijack and renaming logwrapper.bin. Can anyone give me a number of files I'm supposed to have in /system, or maybe a way to go back to stock. Man, that SBF would be mighty helpful right now...
There is system dump laying around. I'll PM you the link (not sure if appropriate to post it here). You can use it to compare content and recover missing file(s).

Hi, I've been trying to find an answer, and I think you could help me.
I had the same problem as this person you were helping, but I already knew that I should look through the system dump and compare. I did that, and deleted one file called dbus.conf from /system/ect. Now, my phone just does the DROID animation over and over again! Please help, I made a copy of dbus.conf on my computer and did a nandroid backup. Please, you or someone else on here, HELP!
So you are in a boot loop. If you can't get the phone to boot into clockwork recovery, today is your lucky day! SBF was finally released!!! Get the SBF and reflash /system

Where is it? Isn't it only available to those with some app called TBH (or something like that)? And now I have to wait for a public release? And, if I'm wrong, can you give me a link to thee file? I can't find it anywhere...
Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it!
I would recommend you to approach the team black hat members and talk to them directly about how to get the sbf while your phone is non functional.

As requested by some I have deodexed the Chinese 2.2 Froyo ROM from Here
It is the full package for now based on the exact ROM, but I will be putting out another two later one with most Chinese stuff removed and another with a fair bit of the blur social stuff removed.
Flash the package by Clockworkmod recovery in the usual way, over the 2.2 ROM. If you have removed apps they will come back, so you will have to remove them again.
Credits go to:
H5u for posting the original stock 2.2 ROM in the above thread.
Sorensiim for the hosting!
Download Here
Enjoy
NB:
If you get an issue with the camera flash after installing 2.2 chinese ROM with it flashing once and then stopping working/being ot of sync, I don't think its related to the deodexed files, however I fixed it by wiping data for camera 2.21 in Titanium Backup
Thank you!
This is exactly, what I've been waiting for.
Could someone please explain what this Deodexed Framework is and what it does or what it's for?
Thanks

.odex files are present in the system by default and accompany most apps (generally apk+odex). The process of deodexing (afaik) removes these files.
As far as purpose goes, Odex system: generally faster, more stable, Deodexed system: easier to mod (bootscreens, lockscreens, themes, etc)
if you're new to the scene that's basically the nutshell version of what you need to know.
Does this still contain Chinese? We really need it.

I don't know if it's signed version, but use "update from zip" in the recovery mode, i've used like this.
Also you can delete some unneeded apk before updating by open zip with winrar (or other) and delete it directly, because older deleted apk will be installed again...

update zips don't need to be signed for clockworkmod, if you remove apk's from the package and flash, make sure they weren't there before or they'll still be in system minus the odex files.
Oh, clockwork mod. I don't have that. Where to get please.
To be more specific I go into recovery and all I see is
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
that's it.
Is clockwork mod suppose to replace this?

Hey folks,
TF101 running 8.6.5.13 (pure rooted), trying to update to .18 using daoist's post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1334673
CWM keeps telling me it's having a problem with gmail.apk - I had installed the ICS version and (like a moron) failed to keep a copy of the 3.x apk.
Amongst others, I've tried using the .apk posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1091566 and failed - it seems a tad old.
I am copying the .apk to the /system/app folder and setting permissions to read on owner/group/all and write on owner, and then installing it - "Application Not Installed" every time, and I've tried a few versions.
Can anyone (a) tell me where I'm going wrong (b) point me at the version of gmail.apk that I need or (c) give me an alternative route to get to 8.6.5.19 (yes, I know I said .18 at the top, ultimately trying to get to .19 but have to go to .18 first apparently)?
Any help greatly appreciated! (Even a pointer to where the install log files live to figure out why it's not installing might help!)
Cheers

Thanks - but did I mention that I had also "uninstalled" the ICS version by going to Applications -> Manage? Just by-the-by, you know! So I have no way (that I know of) to actually fire up the app - no shortcut, it's not in my app drawer, got no widget running.
I'm REALLY making this difficult for myself
Try this version, it's the backup I made before I pushed ICS Gmail app

Thanks, but same result when I apply the .18 zip - "assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/Gmail.apk", "<hex string>", "<different hex string>") E:Error (Status 7)". Those hex strings are what? MD5 checksums?
Strangely I have Gmail back now, so I'm better off that I was before - still getting that assert failed error when trying to apply the zip via CWM though...
I know you shouldn't have to do anything after pushing it to system/app but try clinking on it to install (worth a try).
Permission is rw,rw,r

You don't need to download a whole ROM for one apk. The third link in my signature has all the stock GB apks. You likely need to reflash anyways or add back the apk's you deleted until you get market working. You probably deleted an apk the market needs in order to run. I've done that a few times. You can flash back to stock using the guide in the second link of my signature.
Next time instead of deleting the apk's rename them putting a '.bak' on the end of the file name then test how the phone does. That way you can remove the '.bak' if something goes wrong and determine what caused it.

Start over. It will take too long to walk you through the non reflashing way. Follow the guide in the second link of my signature. It will put you back on Stock unrooted GB. Go from there. Reread my suggestion above before you start deleting things. Good luck.

Try removing the com.google.android.etc.etc apk from the Settings -> Apps -> Downloaded tab.
You can also try force closing/clearing data from Browser if it still shows up under Settings -> Apps -> All
Failing that, back up your important data, download the latest .zip file from ASUS, and follow the directions they have posted for it. I guess that should work.

com.google.android.etc is not there. Browser does not show up anywhere in my apps. Pulling my hair out.
So if I'm on 4.1 right now and I download the latest zip from Asus, that will not trigger an update since they already match right?
When I look at the Android Manifest in root explorer for Browser, it says Versionname:4.0.3-ww epad
SHouldn't that be 4.1??
