I can't remember what the program was called but though it was called adb shell.
What it does is that when I installed on my pc i can connect my phone and see a list of apks on the program. And when I goto different tab on the program, i can remove and push apk to and from phone.
does anybody know where i can download it?
Thanks
you mean this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9248406&postcount=1
but I prefer the manual push/pull

Thanks gil2001xp
its something similar to the one you posted but with different interface.
the one that i used has all the apks on the phone listed on the left side and i can click on the one that i want to remove and just remove it.
for example, when i want to remove the stock launcher or camera i can just remove it and push the new launcher/camera of choice to the phone. this way i will not have two launcher/camera on my phone.
I will give X10 Mod Tool a try now.
Thanks again.
Do you mean adb mask controller??

I cannot flash roms or kernel. It won't boot recovery!!! I have stock rooted shift. How do I make a custom recovery? And install roms and kernel
Probably the easiest way is to download ROM manager from the market. The first option in the app is flash clockworkmod. Very fast and automagic. Have fun! Happy flashing.
I have that and kernel manager. Flashed it twice after it didn't work the first time. It hangs up on the HTC boot logo after I try to boot recovery
turn off your phone
power it on while holding vol down.
does the first line say S-OFF or S-ON?
S on I didn't do nand
I've tried a few more things. I used visionary to root my phone. Was that the wrong thing? It all works. But I can't flash. Lol

That's just a temp root. Go into the development section and use the GUI Root and recovery tool...worked for me.

Yeah if you want you can use terminal emulator on your phone just open it up hit su get your super user permissions then start the commands the first time I rooted I did it using adb the second time I rooted I lost my adb and just chrome to phoned all the codes from my pc to root it from my phone
Sent from my PG06100 using Tapatalk
Alright!! Thank you all who have been helping. I have only a few more questions because I'm a little slow ^_^ ok, first. From the emulator I typed Su and gave permission.... now what? I looked for the commands in development and couldn't find. I'm trying to turn s off. I don't care so much about perm or temp root right now as long as I get that annoying s on to be s off. Lmao. I need commands please!!! Assume I have no access to a computer!
Check out the development subforum. It's a sticky thread by bcnice20.
i dont need a signature
Alright I have that, now its not explained there but in order to do that via the terminal do I need to dl the framework and sdk to my phone? I do not have a running computer right now. I had a crap amd system which is officially dead. It's now all spare parts. So doing the shell on a computer isn't going to work for me :/ yes, I'm difficult. Lol

the commands given in that thread is the exact ones you would need, but since you're using a terminal emulator in your phone, you don't need adb.
do step 1
skip step 2
do step 3,4,5 via your terminal
do step 6
extra points:
once you're perma-rooted, you can go straight to installing Rom Manager, and flash clockworkrom that way.
then reboot your phone to recovery, and do a nandroid backup.
once that's done, you're all set.
Thank you dude!!!!!!! That rocks!!! I'm at work and I'm doing it right now. This is way more important than work ^_^ anyone else addicted to Android?

When the perm root method was finally developed I was at work with no access to a PC. I ended up rooting via phone terminal just because I couldn't bear to wait a couple hours until I got home.
^ Shift Faced
Could someone explain step 1 and 3 for me if I'm using android terminal emulator. I tried it but nothing happened. My device is temprooted. I download the file into the download folder. I use root explorer to extract it... where?? I tried a couple places even the root folder (Its not in SD card) then once its good how do I check the md5 from the terminal. I type Su to get permission then what? The string in the post doesn't seem to do anything no matter how I type it. Or maybe I just don't know the command. I'm fairly new to this kinda thing. :/
That's awesome. I'm feeling the same way. I don't want to wait for a computer it might be a few weeks I'm impatient now lol
Wait, I got part of it. I just need to know how to save the file to the root of the SD card and then how to check the md5sum. Once I know that I'm good to go

Download root explorer and long press the file in your download folder, then back out to your sd card directory and select move. You should be able to check mdsum5 in the term app using the commands given

I have a broken android phone, basically cracked screen. Any possible where to retrieve all sms from it? Obviously its stored on internal memory. It was using froyo rom.
Are you rooted? If you are download Titanium Backup and backup the Dialer Storage app. That apps holds your SMS' and APN info. Most likely will show up green and say SMS at the beginning of the name of the app.

If you have cwm recovery, use button combo to put it in recovery.
Use adb and connect to it and you can copy everything to your computer.
I don't know what adb is and how to use it, but I would truly appreciate steps, I'm a quick learner. The screen is destroyed, no display at all.

I'm wondering if we cant just remove the "Tetherguard" app from the phone via Titanium. I'm not sure if this is what prevents us from tethering, or the app that phones home... but we might have some luck.
Other than that, can we use other apps that will bypass this?

Unfortunately that didnt work, I just tried.
I uninstalled teatherguard via Ti B/u tried to run my tether app, no luck. Tried to run the factory installed hotspot software and instead of getting denied it just wouldnt turn on. If I went into settings I could make changes and try to turn it on however it would just act as if it was loading and eventually do nothing.
At that time I went ahead and installed barnacle and no luck there either, again it wouldnt deny but it wouldnt boot up either.
Hmmmm
Okay so after playing with the app "WiFi Tether for Root Users, Muller, Lemons, Buxton" I finally got it to work. You will need the app downloaded and installed, go to settings, select profile and select "generic ICS" should be the 3rd option, then hit the menu bar again to select re install binary files.
After that turn on the hot spot and connect with your device!
Actually I'm using the HTC app for tethering!! I did this that a saw on a Vivid ROM thread, I think it was on Dark Raider's..... so I don' deserve any credit, I just want to help because I got my One X yesterday, rooted it and tried it and it works perfectly!!
You'll need SQ Lite Editor:
1) Dialer Storage
2) telephony.db
3) carriers
4) 12 Entitlement 310410
you shoud change the value under "apn" from "broadband" to "pta"
5) Please restart your device and you will get it!!
Enjoy my friends!!!
Thank you for that fix!!!!
I search hih and low for the entitlement check in all the databases. I would have never thought to look in telephony.

Donpiero278,
I like your method, but I need a bit more clarification on how you did it.
So I need to purchase SQLLite Editor? What am I going to edit with it? Where do I get the HTC Tethering app? I also don't understand your 1-4 steps.

It's not for the timid.
find the telephony.db in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases copy it to /mnt/sdcard
edit it with the sqlite manager of your choice. I used the firefox extension.
Find line 12 and change it from broadband to pta.
copy it back to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases
reboot phone
You'll need root explorer or similar file manager with root access to get to the file and put it back
After that I just added the widget

You're welcome. I googled the file location that took a while. After that it was cake.
the maker of CWM also made a tethering app, it also claims that it's almost non-detectable by carriers since it does it with proxies and works with non-root https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.tether
just another option. If you use ssdroid, this is another tethering method that does it with proxies and also is nondetectable that i am experimenting with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25818971

pretty sure you should use a root file explorer to remove it from system/apps because you have to remove the odex as well as the apk. not saying it will work but it might. since you already removed the apk with titanium you should use a root file explorer and remove the odex file that's probably still there and see if it fixes it. im trying it now and will report back.
I searched like crazy and I can't find what PTA stands for. I know APN stands for Access Point Name. I also found out that PTA is an APN that is only utilized by LTE provisioned accounts.
Phone daTA ???
Personal Telephony Account ???
Phone Terminated Access ???
.....I don't know ....possibilities are endless but the curiosity is driving me nuts. Does anybody know?

Just download zip and place in system/media using a file manager like Root Explorer is the way to go...simply press and hold on file to extract all...then copy and paste the animation in the system/media folder. Make sure permissions are set to rw-r--r--

Try and not use root explorer... It is 100% safer to use adb and the command line to do things like this.... If you want the commands to run to do the job then PM me, and I will give you a rundown.
Too many people with this phone and other phones have had a TON of trouble with root explorer and other file manger apps making more than just permissions changes to files, things like corrupting the files, and even changing their file type bit.

Yep, I have multiple OS's. Ubuntu, Windows 7, Chrome OS, and others at times.
Ubuntu IS linux. It is just one of many builds of it. it is one of the easiest to use, and most supported for android, so for a new user/android developer it is probably the best.

LOL, it's not that bad, just make sure you have a windows recovery disk with you incase you screw up the MBR. I have done that, then nothing boots at all. Scary as hell. it's super easy to fix, but you need a windows restore disk. Ignore this and don't be scared unless something bad happens, then run to google and be calm. There is very little you can do that is not easy to fix. Just don't format your whole hard drive or something if you want it working with windows.
