Terminal Emulator Update

There is an update for Terminal Emulator in the market I am wondering how you can uninstall it from JF 1.41 RC33 in order to get the update
you can use in terminal
su
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock03 /system
rm /system/app/com.android.term.apk
or navigate to system/app
rm com.android.term.apk
It will close the terminal right away for obvious reasons and then you can load the one from the market.
Just tested it and it works and doesn't seem to have any adverse affects. Mine is still working
I dont see any difference in the app to me looks the same no changes that I can tell.

I keep getting permission denied
are you type su first before mounting the image to get full superuser access.
The only difference we have if your signature is right is that im running the 1.41 RC33 but i was able to remove any apks i wanted this same way when i was on RC30
Yeah I typed su and got the superuser going... Maybe I am just oo much of a noob at this I am running the new JF RC33 update too
make sure that you are not typing anything in quotes "quotes just to show spaces" this is where i had the most problems when i started using this code
su
mount "space" -o "space" rw,remount "space" -t "space" yaffs2 "space" /dev/block/mtdblock03 "space" /system
then the long way
cd system
cd app
rm com.android.term.apk
that might help
Sweet I got it working thanks a million
Is there any reason why the new version is better than the one we have already?
not a problem.
I personally dont see any difference in it but everything still seems to be working

programming ON my android phone (etc)

Greetings gentlefolks.
This forum has been an absolute godsend. I managed to get the latest JF os installed and as such am thoroughly enjoying my G1.
In the past, I had a Windows Mobile phone from HTC. One of my favorite applications on it was Pocket Scheme because it enabled me to write code ON my phone. I'd love to eventually spend time working on software FOR my G1, but right now I'm interested primarily in writing code while on the train, in line, etc.
As far as I know, Pocket Scheme is not available on the Android. I also came across Ruby for Android [2], but so far it force closes as soon as I open it.
So:
1. Are there any languages that are available for writing code on the android? Something with either an included editor AND repl (like Pocket Scheme) or even just an editor (?) or a repl (like Ruby for Android) would be fine.
2. What editor for making "plain text" files with any extension do you use?
3. In desperation I tried using echo to create a new shell script file the other day, and Android OS complained that the file system was read only. Can I make it r/w from within the android, or do I need to use ADB?
Thanks in advance. I tried googling for answers, but to no avail.

Well you could flash Debian to a JF build and go from there.
You can remount it as r/w from the device. I can't remember exactly what the command is but it is something along the lines of "mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system" anyone care to correct me if that is wrong? You can also use DroidSans Tweak Tools available free in the market, just don't use the lite version

almosst correct on the command there, there is actually a space between the "-o" and "remount" so it should read
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
that would make your system partition read write, but if you wanna run shell scripts i would go grab gscript and just write them in there.
oops i typed it wrong i switched the rw and remount, it's fixed now sorry

Haha that's funny. Ive been typing: "mount -o rw, remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system"
But. That's just what works for me. Found it when I first rooted my phone.

[Q] Command to install apps from terminal.

Sorry if this has already been asked. I tried searching and couldn't seem to find clear terminal commands. All of them either didn't seem to work, or were actually adb commands.
What are the exact commands for installing an app through terminal?
I'm trying to find the easiest commands to help a friend that needs to install an app on his phone. He doesn't have a data plan so he can't go into the market to install it, and isn't near the computer for adb.
I've used this command set before to install an app to system before:
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cat /sdcard/'name-of-app'.apk > /system/app/'name-of-app'.apk
mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
But that is a little to complicated for him, and would be especially hard to explain over the phone, because like I said, he has no data plan.
Now I've seen this command around here:
su
cd /sdcard
install 'name-of-app'.apk /system/app/'name-of-app'.apk
But I tried that on my phone before giving it to him and it didn't seem to work.
So what are the commands for installing an app through the terminal to either system or data?
Install the sdk...
adb install application.apk

You just have to copy the application to /system/app (cp command), /system/ has to be mounted first of course.

Wont uninstall

I rooted my Captivate from Rogers via SuperOneClick and applied the OneClickLagFix V2+ then I saw Darky's ROM so I decided to uninstall OneClickLagFix V2+ then I tried uninstalling EXT2 Tools but it just says
Remove EXT2 tools failed with error: Could not remove library libext2_blkid.so' Read-only file system.
Is there anyway to remove this?
Or is it okay for me to just flash Darky's ROM 9.2?
Thanks in advance
adb shell or use a terminal app and have superuser on the phone and have the screen on (if using adb) in case you need to allow superuser.
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system​Then uninstall.

[Q] Rooting Android (remount)

I was never successful using SuperOneClick for the Optimus V. hangs at wating for device.
THOUGH...
I believe I did finally get it rooted using adb and push psneuter, busybox, su and Superuser.apk...via Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick...
I rebooted the device twice...downloaded terminal from the market and sure enough I can su to a # prompt...I take this to confirm I have successfully rooted my Optimus V.
Now to the question....
I found several post most of which included this command in adb shell:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
However I was successful based on a post found here by (Endur):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12076877
with the command
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
What is the difference? Have I done something horribly wrong?
And Thank you for all your work here...This is a lot of fun prying into the technologies of today and tomorrow.
Any answer or pointing me in the direction to research on my own would be much appreciated.
Jim
