[Q] Help installing default applications on DX (rooted) - General Questions and Answers

I just rooted my droid x and themed it using rom manager and boot strapper. I had all my files backed up on titanium backup but they arn't installing. I lost my google maps, my original text messaging app, my basic widgets etc. I downloaded a file with all of the default apps and I was wondering if I could install them from recovery mode? or some other way?

is it possible to use appsaver from the market becoz

and if i want them again or after i install a desired ROM i just install it back
cheers if this works
I am having the same issue. The reason I want to backup up is so that I can keep my launcher pro settings and the arrangement of my icons when i install new roms. Is there another way to do this?
Fix for your problem....
Uninstall from your phone through market. Delete the folder that was generated on your sd card. Delete any backup that you may have created (like with Titatium Backup, etc.), then reinstall through market or download .apk directly from LauncherPro site. Should be good to go, it worked for me.
Thank you! It worked

any way to grab settings, notes, etc. from apps?

So, I just recently rooted and installed cyanogenmod 7 on my htc droid incredible. I know that I had to wipe and delete everything in order to install everything. I tried backing up my apps with an app called backupeverything. Well, besides not being able to find it on the market (I was able to find an apk online and install it), every time I try to restore the apps, it doesn't work. I know the apps I need, the issue I'm running into is: is there any way I can recover settings, notes (like from springpad, notepad, etc.) from my phone?
Just go into /data/data and copy the apps folder using a file explorer then put it on sdcard and then on computer and from there you can apply that data into roms by default or do whatever

[Q] How to back up and revert to stock apps (Gmail, etc)

Is it possible to backup the APKs of preinstalled apps, such as Gmail? For example, right now there is an update to the Gmail app available. I'd like to make a backup of the one currently installed, so I can go back to it in case the new version is buggy.
I know how to find the APKs of user-installed apps, but where are the preinstalled app APKs located, and is restoring a preinstalled app the same as restoring user installed apps (i.e. just copying the APK back to /data/app/ )?
Titanium Backup on Market..

The pre loaded apps are in /system/app

[Q] Cannot re-install My Files using Titanium Backup?

Samsung Galaxy Ace, 2.3.6, rooted.
Uninstalled several system apps using Titanium Backup. Successfully re-installed some of them, like samsung apps, thinkfree, etc., but unable to re-install My Files.
Tried to download some Myfiles.apk (one is 600+ kb, one is a bit bigger, and one is about 1Mb). Saved on sdcard. Tapped on it to install, "Application is not installed".
Help please!!! I don't understand why samsung apps and thinkfree can be re-installed, with Titanium no less, but My Files cannot, even with the .apk file.
Thank you!!!
By the way, if it means anything to you guys, I tried to uninstall / reinstall Boat Browser Mini (which is installed in sdcard) with Titanium, and uninstall / reinstall Screen Filter (which is installed in data/app?), with Titanium, both turned out ok.
Thanks!

is possible integrate apk's in firmware?

Hello everyone, I would like to restore often doing some apk in the rom that I have already installed, so if I do a factory data reset I find myself these integrated programs in the rom. I tried using Titanium Backup to create me an update zip but even if I flashed to restore the programs disappear. I remembered that you could do with titanium .... my questions are 2
1. if you can do it with titanium shown me step by step how to do?
2. there is a program to do these zip to flash that remain on forever?
thanks 1000
I don't know how to do that with Titanium Backup because i do not use it.
But you can make a flashable zip file of the (fresh flashed) firmware with cwm and integrate the apk's you want afterwards into the zip.
Maybe this gives you an idea.

Not tried on my Moto G (not really had the desire or need to deviate from stock), but on my rooted Tablet I use Titanium to
1 ) Integrate System App updates (e.g. Maps, Playstore etc) into the System partition - via the Batch Actions menu, under Move/Integrate.
2 ) Convert User Apps to System Apps - if you long press on the app on the app listing screen it shows a pop up menu - the last choice is 'Convert to system app'.
On my old phone I used RootExplorer and copied the file into the system and set the permissions. It might need a reboot after too. I didn't used it with updated apps but I prefer to keep things stock in that way.
