[Q] Accidentally uninstalled Accounts & Sync App

Yep, I I accidentally the whole thing. I clicked the wrong button in TIBU.
Anyways, I got the phone yesterday, updated it to 2.3.6, and rooted it, but otherwise left it alone. I just rooted so I could restore my apps from my previous phone with TIBU. I did not restore data. Today, I was trying to fix an issue I was having with accounts and sync, and I meant to freeze it, but I hit uninstall and wasn't paying attention to the prompts, so it uninstalled it. It was backed up, but I can't re-install it. I even found the app's .apk in system/app folder, and tried to re-install it but it will not, it just tries for like a second and then says "Not installed". The option is now missing from my settings menu.
I would really like a way to fix it without having to wipe and re-install the OS, but if I have to I can.
nb4 "did you search?" yes, I did. I couldn't find anything that helped.
Thanks in advance, everyone.
Download a rom for your phone thats2.3.6 and unzip it. Go into system/app and take the apk that u need. Push it to your system/app folder with root explore. Change permissions to the ones on the pic and reboot and u should be good.

I pushed the file and changed permissions to exactly as shown in the picture, and it still came back with "application not installed"
Edit: DERP, big time derp, forgot to reboot. one minute.
Edit 2: changed permissions, rebooted, still would not install.

No u need to just copy paste to system/app change permissions then reboot. Don't try to install like a regular app

I did that, but the Applications and Sync option is not there.
If I did a recovery update to 2.3.6 again, would that fix it perhaps? or will it not let me update it that way since it's already on 2.3.6?

Actually, I did just that, and it fixed it! sigh. I wish I had thought of that right away. Now I'm back to my original problem that I was trying to fix, though. When i try to add my facebook account in accounts and sync, I click on add account, select the facebook icon, and it just goes back to the previous page without doing anything.
Oh well. At least I got the big problem fixed, thank you for helping.

reflash whatever rom you currently have, but don't wipe the data/factory reset. Since the file you need is in the system folder it'll rewrite.

I just ran the 2.3.6 update again. It fixed it, but it turns out that the problem I was trying to fix in the first place which led me to uninstall the app was not a problem at all, it was google locking out facebook sync on nexus S meh, whatever. I only did it for the pictures anyways. Thanks though!

temporary solution:
get all contacts from TMO website manually
That's why you should always sync to Google

Yes! Especially with their new motto! They want to know as much about you as possible... and by syncing your contacts with them, you are feeding them what they need to survive... Reminds me of the Little Shop of Horrors... Google sitting around belching, "FEED ME!"

Copy the MobileBackup.apk to your sd card. You can use 'Super Manager' from the app market. Open 'Super Manager' then go into file manager. Check your settings in Super Manager by going into setup/root and make sure 'enable ROOT function' is checked. Find your MobileBackup.apk on your SD Card and copy. Press 'Back up level folder' twice. Go into 'system/app' and make sure 'system is set to (r/w). Paste the MobileBackup.apk in the folder.
But like the others said... you really should use GMail to backup your contacts.
Thanks!
haha thanks everyone, I think it is just a bug he hasent worked out yet cus when i use the app switch me (kinnda like dual boot, only just 1 rom) I found all of my contacts were there when i tried syncing tm contacts from the .apk I ported ...
my solution to get on my main boot was to save a .vcf to my sd.
BTW- Thanks everyone for your help

sorry, i origionally thought you were talking about mms/sms, my bad for reading to fast.Are you rooted or stock? If you are rooted I would full wipe reflash boot and start over. If you are on stock non rooted I would go to settings/backup & reset. then untick backup my setting, and automatic restore then press reset phone.

great . .
Are you guys all the same??
Everything is OK for me.
You could check in Settings - Sync, send & receive setting - Receive settings - Mail size limit to make the limit bigger, hope that'll help.

Same problem here, need help.
Thank you
Why don't you try using a different email app like K9 or Aqua Mail. The stock HTC mail app lacks many basic features that you will find available in other apps.

THis one.
But I identified that the problem occurs just when the app is installed in the card. Is there any way to solve it?

I've made everything as described. Also, tried to wipe everything and install again, like 3 times. When facebook, outlook and one drive app's are installed in the SD card, they don't save the login and password after I reboot, and then I have to login again.
