Does anyone have the original maps.apk from android 2.2 (not 2.2.1) from /system/app ? I deleted mine last time for bruts map mod and now i cant update to 2.2.1 due to the file being missing, can someone upload it here or know where i can get it? Thanks!
Nvm. found it.
Is the Sprint App Updater apk for the Shift the same one for the Evo? if not, can someone give me a copy of the .apk file and/or odex. I got a little delete-happy on root explorer. and now my notifications bar is showing that I have an mandatory update available for the VVM that I cant get because im missing the sprint updater.
here is the apk (no odex I could find) pulled from one of the original system dumps posted here early on...
No one seemed to wanna help me so I had to figure this out myself
Started with the Europe RUU and patched the files from the OTA zip posted earlier today, rooted, the whole 9 yards.
What you get:
1.45.401.2 Android 2.3.4
disabled boot sound (I had to, sorry!)
rooted & busybox installed
odexed
unsecure boot.img
love
Deodexed version comes with all of the above plus:
busybox runparts support (init.d)
/data/app enabled
nano & bash shell
deodexed
extra love
Older kernels do not seem to work (2.3.3 ones), so you will have to stick with this stock kernel for now. I have a TMO US Sensation and everything seems to be working fine on my end (I AM running the new radio, btw).
Flash with CWM.
Note for odexed ROM!! - I mucked up the Settings.apk and included a wrong one. The correct files are in there but need to be renamed before you flash, or flash the file I linked below IMMEDIATELY after you flash the ROM (before rebooting). Deodexed version is unaffected. Sorry for the trouble!
Download Odexed -d40386a3258546ee1bd760588007d2bd
Odex Settings Flashable fix - flash immediately after
Downdload Deodexed - 71aeba2d1ae00813458b78bda5c188a0
Deodex Flashable Settings.apk fix - or just push this Settings.apk
Instructions for those not so sure which to download:
Download deodex version
Download Deodex Settings.apk flashable right below it
Place both on SD
reboot to recovery and make a nandroid backup
wipe dalvik cache (and data if you choose, I recommend doing so)
flash deodex
flash settings.apk fix
reboot
Nice one man, will be helpfull to many
yah now all will make a super mega uber fast .... rom
thanks for release, users who like all stock will be happy
Bug
(Do NOT Flash this ROM!) - FIXED
There is no Settings application!!!!!!!!
And in Menu also!!!
Am I missing something? What's so good about this. o_o
Good things ahead.
Great work. How did you apply the OTA patch "HTC_Europe_1.45.401.2-1.35.401.1" to "HTC_Europe_1.35.401.1" ?? Did you update your phone then backup and used that in the kitchen ?
Thanx
There is no settings app. Attempting to start settings from the status bar crashes the status bar process...
Nice :\
Flashed with CWM.

+1 Same prob.
It's unanimous. Settings are missing.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA Premium App. Waiting for my phone to restore.
Sorry fellas, was experimenting with one and forgot to get rid of it, you can run the following commands to get it back (it should be on your phone, I just renamed it, look at the zip ).
Open up your zip and delete Settings.apk in /system/app and rename Settings.apk.bak to Settings.apk and then rename Settings.odex.bak to Settings.odex then flash away.
Or the hard way:
Code:
roman$ adb remount
remount succeeded
roman$ adb shell
sh-3.2# cd /system/app
sh-3.2# rm Settings.apk
sh-3.2# mv Settings.apk.bak Settings.apk
sh-3.2# mv Settings.odex.bak Settings.odex
roman$ adb reboot recovery
**wipe dalvik cache in recovery**
reuploading a newer version.

Ripped the patch zip apart, took out any references to firmware, flashed the patch file upgrade.
In the firmware.zip were the boot.img & radio.imgs i flashed among other things I was way too scared to touch
So any "reviews" on 2.3.4, is battery life better? Anything new?
Also a question.
If I install this, would I be able to extract my backup rom of Anroid Revolution and take the apps out aswell as other things like contacts and just slap em on my SD card or in System/apps and have it all work again?

Just do a nandroid backup before, flash over, if you get no issues, great! If you start seeing issues, nandroid back, or do a /data wipe in recovery. But theoretically you should be able to.
Deodexed version is also up. flashed and seems to be working great.

I did it! Just flashed it over my old ROM and it worked like an update. Settings working, probably because old ones weren't overwritten. I'm gonna keep using it and report any problems.
Also I used root explorer to fix settings.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA Premium App. Phone is restored.
You sure it'll work ok?
I've got Android Revolution HD with No Sense (So all HTC Sense is removed)
Still safe to just flash over?
It worked for me. I flashed over training wheels.

Honestly no, but theoretically it SHOULD work. Do a nandroid, and then you have nothing to be scared of .

Since I have to re-flash I renamed the files within the zip. Let's see if it works
Also, is it safe to just remove a couple of files from the zip? I'm thinking about bloatware naturally...
It might be a silly question, but I've never messed with roms before
i dont like you and all but thanks.
In case someone needs these for returning system apps for OTA to work or anything else, I have here a complete compilation of stock and untouched apps extracted from system/app directory of my phone (R800i) firmware version 4.0.A.2.368 UK Generic:
DOWNLOAD HERE
Where?
Where did you get the apps?
I mean on which phone??
In sony??
From /system/app of my phone of course. Extracted it when it was freshly flashed with the said firmware.
if i Have this ROM:
[ROM][PLAY][GSM][2.3.7] Xperia NXT v1.2 [LOCKED/UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER][16-06-2012]
how to use that?
thanks
Hello all, I'm new to XDA Developers (in fact I registered 5 minutes from creating this thread) so I'm not really sure if this is the right section. I have an HTC Evo 4G with Warm Twopointtwo as the ROM (cyanogen was buggy). I have recently decide to build my own ROM accustom to me. When using kitchen UOT, it prompted me for 3 files, one of which was SystemUI.apk. The file is not in /system/app. I scanned the development folder I made but no SystemUI.apk was found. I searched the phone with a root explorer with no finds of the missing SystemUI.apk. If I must use the stock ROM to get my SystemUI.apk, where would I get the stock ROM? Thanks.
The SystemUI, is located in these two folders. (IT DEPENDS ON THE DEVICE).
/system/app
/system/priv-app
