Try Titanium backup. It should regconise the freeze app and there you can unfreeze it. And Titanium Backup is more stable speaking of dealing with system apps. But of course you need root for this to work.
No luck...
No luck, the file no longer works, can anyone send me the file from latest update.. HELP
The file is DMCLIENT.APK from .21 build is under /system/apps
try this at your own risk, you do better check MD5 first

The version is not compatible, my version is from the WW .21, seems the one you send me is from US version. Thank you for your help.
Hope someone can help me out.
My is also WW.21, suggest you ask someone with WW.21 give you a MD5 code so that you can check.

So i just updated to the new version of Titanium Backup on my captivate...it keeps crashing on startup...yes my phone is rooted, i have the latest ver of busybox installed. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, it asked to get the latest ver of busybox which i already had and then it keeps crashing...any ideas or has anyone had this prob so far?
Im also having this issue.Its nothing you did wrong. If you check the comments for the app, many users are reporting this problem, fir different phones.

You don't have that option on the captivate. Ignore it. Make sure you got the latest version of TB. Launch the application. Click on problems. Let it install busybox (yea yea you have it)... and it should be ok.
thanks for that...along the same lines, i am trying to re-install my media hub apk, using appsinstaller, say the phone is blocked from non market apps....i am using SRE 1.2.1a
I'm not sure about that.. but..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=388191&d=1282780888
there's a link to the apk again. Try to sideload it.. or first try to make sure you actually have market access .. here's an app to test it: Furdiburb
look for it in the marketplace and if you are able to download/install it then something's up @[email protected] and I'm not quite sure as I've never used appinstaller.
For the captivate you have to edit settings.db to enable non-market apk files to install. There is a guide on these forums and on wiki sites. It's not that difficult.
Reply back if you want more information.
Titainum backup will not restore properly unless that settings.db is edited.

OK, so I finally got the system update for the D2G yesterday. I'm not new to this whole game, so I removed Clockworkmod, unrooted, and installed the update. The update downloads fine, but the with the little Android guy screen, I get an "!" in a triangle and then the phone reboots.
Maybe I didn't remove clockwork all the way? Don't you delete hijack and logwrapper, and then rename the logwrapper.bin to logwrapper?
well basiclly the phone needs to be untouch in terms of the file structure, in my case, I deleted a few of the stock apk files and when I tried to do the update it would fail because the stock apps were missing and the update is a patch not a full system OS so it cant install the default apps, I had to install them back to the system/app with root explorer and then set the permissions back to what they needed to be, unforchenitly a hard reset would not install the stock apps. Also make sure anything that the root touched has been set back to default
I have the same problem too. I can't get the update to work at all after installing Fission ROM. I even restored from a nandroid from a fresh D2G. It worked fine on the untouched phone tho. I checked all the files in the /system/app and they were there. Is there any magical restore .zip perhaps?

I never touched anything... I stopped using Titanium Backup a long time ago when I uninstalled everything verizon and had the same OTA problem you described. I am at a loss for the problem that I have! All I ever did was root and put on clockwork, and I made sure they were gone when I updated.
Please, someone help!
did you uninstall of freeze any of the stock apps in /system/app? You need to restore them in order to successfully apply the OTA update. One file missing or modified in /system and checksums will fail/update fails.

the only time I touched anything in /system was when I removed clockwork by deleting hijack and renaming logwrapper.bin. Can anyone give me a number of files I'm supposed to have in /system, or maybe a way to go back to stock. Man, that SBF would be mighty helpful right now...
There is system dump laying around. I'll PM you the link (not sure if appropriate to post it here). You can use it to compare content and recover missing file(s).

Hi, I've been trying to find an answer, and I think you could help me.
I had the same problem as this person you were helping, but I already knew that I should look through the system dump and compare. I did that, and deleted one file called dbus.conf from /system/ect. Now, my phone just does the DROID animation over and over again! Please help, I made a copy of dbus.conf on my computer and did a nandroid backup. Please, you or someone else on here, HELP!
So you are in a boot loop. If you can't get the phone to boot into clockwork recovery, today is your lucky day! SBF was finally released!!! Get the SBF and reflash /system

Where is it? Isn't it only available to those with some app called TBH (or something like that)? And now I have to wait for a public release? And, if I'm wrong, can you give me a link to thee file? I can't find it anywhere...
Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it!
I would recommend you to approach the team black hat members and talk to them directly about how to get the sbf while your phone is non functional.

I deleted official google maps 5.0 by RE, modified instead. Unfortunately that when I update the system to 2.3.2 by hand, there was error " /system/app/maps.apk ... E: ERROR /tmp/sideload/package.zip", installation was failed.
What shall I do?
Somebody told me that the reason is "rooted", nothing about my maps. But my phone has stock recovery & rom, only rooted by superboot......

Put back a copy of the original Google Maps apk for 2.3.1.
Or you can edit out the patch and instructions to patch in the update zip; then use CWM to flash the update so you don't get a signature failure on the flash..
In one of the 2.3.2 update threads on here there was a guy who had the same issue you are, only his was with the gmail apk. Search through those 2.3.2 update threads for more details if you need them.
Thanks, buddy!
Firstly I want to try your suggestion 1st, put back the google map official version. But I can't find it in google market!
Ok, I uninstalled the modified version map and put the official map back from market. But it seems the same problem.
1) install clockwork recovery
2)restore nandroid backup posted here
3) and u'll be fresh stock 2.3.1 ready for update.

He'll also lose all his customizations and app data...unless he remembers to use Titanium to back it all up first.
What version does the app from the market show as? It needs to be 5.0.0.

If someone had the original apk, couldn't he just use that?
Just went into root explorer and found this so hopefully it helps. Let me know if I should pull it from some where else.

Yes, that should work if your phone is on the same Gingerbread build as his (assuming he's 2.3.1), if you've upgraded to 2.3.2 it will be a problem. What's happening is the patch is failing for some reason, I'm assuming it's because some check on the file shows it's not the right one to patch. I'd need to re-read the update script for sure. I posted it one of the two update threads if someone has time to go through it. (I don't right now.)

you would need to flash through clockwork cause you would need to toggle signature verification off. let me know if it works
I was having the same problem except with the market. I tried flashing it through clockwork but it didn't work. I then removed both parts of the script that checked vending.apk and it still didn't work. Next I just removed vending.apk from system/app then flashed the .zip in clockwork and it worked! The market still works fine and I still have root.

Try removing the com.google.android.etc.etc apk from the Settings -> Apps -> Downloaded tab.
You can also try force closing/clearing data from Browser if it still shows up under Settings -> Apps -> All
Failing that, back up your important data, download the latest .zip file from ASUS, and follow the directions they have posted for it. I guess that should work.

com.google.android.etc is not there. Browser does not show up anywhere in my apps. Pulling my hair out.
So if I'm on 4.1 right now and I download the latest zip from Asus, that will not trigger an update since they already match right?
When I look at the Android Manifest in root explorer for Browser, it says Versionname:4.0.3-ww epad
SHouldn't that be 4.1??

Can someone PLEASE go into Root Explorer in system\app and grab the "Browser.apk" as well as the other "Browser..." file what ever it was. It is located right under "Browser.APK", I just don't remember the extension. I don't remember coz I wiped them both out. I think I had the older version of the file residing in there and hence wasn't able to install it.
Can someone please kindly do that for me and post? Thank you.

Both of them founded a local backup, but strange dated 01/01/70 0k. Where did il search the file, is there a way to force a path? I also tried to chenge the name of older backup but same result. How can I verify the integrity of my files? Anyone else hasa similar problem? Thanks
