the file status is "lrwx" then, "l" menas "symbolic link" , "r" => "read able". "w" => "write able", "x" => "execute able"

is it just me...
but if i download it, and try to run the apk, it tells me "cant open file" o.o

Works for me on HTC magic 32b running froyo, many thanks.

I don't know why, but I can open all folders I want except /mnt/sdcard. I get a FC when trying. On filemanagers I can open /mnt/sdcard with success.
Using a HTC Desire, rooted and S-off.

Installed and works for me, but it shows my /data/app/ folder as empty.
I have apps2sdext so it should follow the link...
As a workaround I can browse to /sd-ext/app just fine.

Only for Froyo devices right? I'm running 2.1, has anyone figured out how to move apps 2 sd on 2.1? (stock kernal)

Can I change boot screen also from the root?

does not work with my mytouch 4g... had to busy the market version instead

Sorry to dig up an old thread but I'm having a problem moving apps to my SD card. I go into rooted explorer and copy the .apk, I move into the /system folder but there is no SD folder. Everything else looks the same as the screen shot except I'm missing the SD folder. Any ideas?

Has anyone installed a modified widgetlocker.apk to nexus s?

So I installed widgetlocked from the market and it all runs lovely. However, I wanted to use the Ultralinx mods for it.
I tried a few different ways, extracting it with root explorer. Copying the .apk to my desktop and modding the files there and signing them with signapk, but the modified .apk will not install no matter what I try. It always comes up with 'Application not installed'.
I am a bit newb at this I admit but have installed other apks just fine.
Any help appreciated

Figured it out. HAD to use adb. No other method would I tried would work, but that did first time!

I was trying to PM you, but they weren't going through...
Anyway, is there any chance you could tell me how you did this? I've tried every other method and nothing has happened. Whether it's because I own a Nexus S or a Mac, I don't know, but it's pretty hard (though I am new to this).
Regards,
Jon.

I usually use WidgetLocker, would you mind explaining what the modded one is? Thanks

The modded version I mention is UltraLinx's lovely unlock slider mod as in these pics.

Both available from here: http://www.theultralinx.com
As I mentioned the only method I could get to work was using ADB and Ultralinx actually has a youtube video on his site about how to do it, but I will list it here anyway.
Your phone needs to be rooted to do any of this...
Install WL as normal from market.
Copy the file com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk from data/app to /sdcard somewhere using astro or rootexplorer etc.
Then move that file to your computer desktop into the /sdk/tools dir where adb.exe is.
Add the WL modded files from Ultralinx to that .apk in the /res/drawable-hdpi/ directory using winrar or whatever program you use to open/mod .apk files. Make sure it has overwritten the original files!
Fire up a command promt and change dir to where adb.exe is sdk/tools or whatever.
type these next couple of lines and enter after each one;
abd shell mount /system
adb push com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk /system/app
Then reboot your phone and that should be it done. You can select the new slider from WL options (it modded the iphone slider so select that).
As I say, this is the only way I could get the thing to work.
Coming from windows mobile this whole abd thing of modding stuff seemed a right pain in the arse but I guess like anything once you have done it once you know it for next time and I think this mod is worth it.

Hi,
thanks for the instructions!
I've encountered an issue and would appreciate if you could help. So i follow your steps, however i get the following issue after the push command:
failed to copy 'com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk' to '/system/app/com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk': Read-only file system
I'll really appreciate if you could help, thanks!

Update: So i managed to push it successfully. Problem was I needed to enter the command adb remount beforehand in order for it to let me write.
sage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory
Red-Teams-MacBook-Prolatform-tools cloakroom$ adb push com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk /system/app
3158 KB/s (1202848 bytes in 0.371s)
However, even after rebooting the phone I am still stuck with the old iphone slider and not the one made by ultralinx. Any thoughts as to why this is?
Do i have to uninstall widgetlocker from my phone before i pushed the modded apk?

this looks SICK! cant wait to try it!!!

a quick question, does the weather still animate with these?

Yes you still get the weather animation..

Awesome. Followed your guide and it looks great! Now I'm interested in changing the icons on my homescreen clock and weather widget. Do you have any insight on doing that? Thanks!

[Temp Fix] Prevent GL2SD and Folder Mount from rebooting

I will not take any responsibility if something bad happens to your phone, or if you have to reflash the stock rom. This method is only tested on my own Xperia M2 D2303 and works fine so far.
If you did use the Towel Root method to gain root access to your M2, you probably tried to install Folder Mount or GL2SD in order to move some of your games and apps to your SD card. Unfortunately they will keep rebooting your phone unless you stop the SONY Ric service. Here is a temporary workaround.
Root your device first and follow the Towel Root guide, including the Super SU installation!
Make sure that your SD card is FAT32 formatted and there is sufficient space left to actually move the app/game
First download and install busybox from the play store and make sure that the install path says /system/xbin
Then also install Script Manager from the play store and open the app.
Tap the three dots on the bottom right of your screen to open the menu and select "New Script"
Give it a convinient name, "ric" will do just fine
Select SM Editor from the list
Type in the following (the first line is already there)
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
mount -o rw,remount /system
stop ric
busybox pkill -f /sbin/ric
Save the file and close it
Now find the newly created "ric" in the list and tap it.
Make sure you select the "SU" and "Boot" icons and that "is script" is selected. Tap the save button.

}
Reboot and try if it works.
There are couple of "rootfixes" here on XDA that will attempt to fix the problem, but since they are all written for different Xperia devices they won't work. Also, this is NOT the same "halfroot" problem as on other Xperia phones since you can freely remount /system in RW mode, change permissions or delete/edit files inside.
This small script will be usable for all rooted M2's with locked bootloaders, while others will get custom kernels with blocked RIC sooner or later.
Remember: When you are done playing, unmount the folder in GL2SD/FolderMount before connecting the USB cable or stuff may happen.
Let me know if it works for you.

Currently, I'm not playing any large file gaming but Many of friends from M2 group experiencing bootloop when trying to folder mount, I'll let them know for this temp fix and post it here how the outcome.
