[Q] Words with friends - HTC Sensation

I am having an issue with installing it. It downloads fine and then starts the installation process but it gives me an error stating that i have insufficient memory. I am using link to sd and I feel that I have plenty. I have tried uninstalling my larger apps like Netflix but it still states the same thing when I try to install it.

There might be a odex residue of it in /data/apps/ (use any file explorer to go to that folder) folder.. The format of the file would be com.<app name>.odex.. Delete that and install the app agin

Are you doing this on Froyo or GB? This only works on Froyo. Maybe try re-downloading the recovery & zip file to insure you didn't get bad downloads.
I'm on froyo and I downloaded from my phones browser if that makes a difference, and thanks for the help boss

It shouldn't make a difference how you downloaded the zip as long as you followed the instructions on the thread. Make sure you don't try to extract the zip file. try re-downloading them & try again.
are you changing the permissions of the directory from read only (R/O) to read/write (R/W) in root explorer before you try pasting the files?
Yup I used root explorer to push the files and it prompted me to switch to r/w when I tried to push the recovery. I'll try the process from the beginning and report back

Most of the no system space issues come From .odex residue files left out when the app is uninstalled/modified
So what you guys can do is go to
/data/app using any file explorer
(ES File explorer) and delete the corresponding "com.<app name>.odex" file And you guys are good to go now

This worked for me on my Galaxy Nexus, i was googling for a bit. I ended up having to search for *.odex in root explorer; but make sure to have it mounted as R/W (read-write)... this way it will find the culprit 'titanium backup odex' ... i also wiped cache and dalvik; but in the end deleting the odex fixed it.

On pc open up file with winzip or winrar and go into lib and armeabi and copy the .so file onto sdcard. Using root explorer copy .so file into system/lib fix permissions and restart phone and all should be ok. I have heard of people having to find their voice talk and voice command files and delete them because they were conflicting with s-voice.
Installed just fine for me from apk. Works pretty good. But once you say a command it stops it doesn't continue listening.

first thing i did was rename vlingo.apk to .old, and voicetalk.apk to .old. tried copying in the new voicetalk.apk, no luck off the bat, got in, got through the setup screen but force closes after that. Just tried moving the .so file in and wiping the cache's and fixing permissions. still getting a force close. suggestions?
edit: clearing app cache seems to have fixed it, even tried that woodchuck thing. impressive.
edit 2: iphones recognition seems to be about as accurate for what I tried, however it did come up with the answers far quicker.

Same issues getting it to work without FC'ing - same suggestions above apply? Going to mess with it but don't have a lot of free time today and tomorrow
So after a bit of playing around i figured out that if you push it to the system/app folder and fix the permissions, then go back in the system/app folder and install the apk like a normal app, its been working fine. Had one FC since, but working 100% better then before. Goodluck!

fastest way
1) put on SD card
2) use root explorer (or whatever app you use, copy file to system/app
3) set permission (RW- R-- R--)
4) reboot
5) look in app drawer and open. works fine hasn't force closed yet.
If you tried another way and it failed you must delete the one out of your system/app, reboot and then follow the steps exactly.
yes you must be on ICS
Im using Alien ICS ★ Build #8 ★ it works great

that is why you have to set permissions correctly.
Did you move it to system/app wwith root explorer?
Make sure the top row of permissions all have check marks.(leave the others that are already checked off checked, I sometimes jusst check off all 9 permissions boxes if unsure)
Reboot your phone, and voila widgets will be working

I have my icons themed with a CM9 theme too and I like how it keeps the theming.

Set permissions correctly on it (check all 9 boxes if unsure) but don't install yet
Copy the lib to system/lib
Reboot phone
Then use root explorer and go to system/app
Click on the launcher apk and choose install.

That's because you don't flash in cwm. Follow the exact instructions in post above and it will work but you have to follow them step by step no shortcuts you must do it exactly like it says.

These are the steps you have to do if you want this work. Even though it is a zip file you do not flash it in cwm. Its not gonna work that way. You have to extract the files so you can get the apk file and others needed to do the steps above. You will also need a file explorer that allows you to get to the system files. I used es file explorer its free on the market. Follow the steps above and this will work..

You can copy a system apk and save it in /sdcard/ for example, and then copy it back to /system/app using a filebrowser with root-function, such as ES File Explorer, Root Explorer etc. No need for adb if you dont want to.
But I doubt the stock camera app will work on an AOSP build.

If you installing the camera from say CM10 which I would call stock for AOSP but I think Goatshocker thinks you on about the Sense camera.
If you use his app then load it up connect it to pc with usb debugging on and then replace Gallery2.apk and then reboot, oh and a tip don't let the app install it but just push the apk.
Also, the All In One Kit can push them too yes?

No idea on that but Goatshocker app works fine for what you want to do.
Did you sort this yet?
When you said "stock camera", I obviously assumed you ment the stock camera that comes with the phone, which means - sense.
Moving the camera between different AOSP roms shouldnt cause any issue. Neither should moving the sense camera between sense roms.
But moving the Sense camera to an AOSP rom - thats what I doubt will work.
In any case, you can always (if youre rooted, obviously ) copy the camera apk and replace it. If it doesnt work it wont start, thats it. The actuall copy/replace will still work.
Do note that you might need to reboot the phone after modifying /system/ applications.
In very rare cases you might have to do it through a recovery, using ADB, because the system might block access (similar to windows "the file is in use" message when trying to change an open file).
In any case, you should always back up the file you are replacing, before replacing it, in case the new file doesnt work.
I usually do it an ugly way, simply renaming the old file to "blabla.apk_"
That way the file will still be there, but the system wont recognize it as an application. If the new file works as it should, I go back and delete the ".apk_" file.
Just to clarify a final time: Replacing the camera app in /system/ will in 99% of the cases work with a root explorer on the phone, the last 1% might need to use ADB while in recovery or bootloader.
