Application not installing after modding.

I have made a few changes in the google sound search app using the apk multi tool. When I installed it via the apk multi tool it works fine but when I try installing the apk via the phone the installation is aborted. I Uninstalled the previous versions and restarted but still no luck. Here is the apk link : http://www.mediafire.com/?7m3yxcb84z26ce9 (Only for ICS). Please help me get this working :crying:

This has nothing to do with Terminal Emulator, it's working fine ->
adb stands for android debug bridge, it's meant to be a way to do stuff with your android device from your computer over the "bridge" that is USB. It says "waiting for device" because it needs a USB android device to be connected. As far as I know, even with OTG you can't use adb actually on an android device itself with Terminal Emulator. If all you want to do is uninstall an app, you shouldn't need adb anyway.

Unfortunately, this isn't working for me - still no play store, but there's an entry for com.android.vending in Manage Apps with a grey icon (generic app icon with a little SD card in the bottom right corner) and a size of 0.00b. Anyone know what I missed?

Edit: Fixed it! Needed to do "adb uninstall com.android.vending" and then reboot. The store is back now.

Try run the following in Terminal Emulator:
Code:
pm uninstall com.android.vending
* You must find out the vending apk and delete it first (If the apk exists and is a system app).

As mentioned by @HTCDreamOn, adb is for you to run commands from Windows and since you are working with Terminal Emulator you do not need to deal with adb related command.
Also mentioned earlier that you MUST manually delete the apk first before you can uninstall the app if it is a system app.
To do that first find out where the vending apk located. assumed that you have busybox/grep installed, run the following in Terminal Emulator:
pm list packages -f | grep vending
You should get something like this:
package:/system/app/vending.apk=com.android.vending
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
* Actual filename & path may vary depending on device
Now that you know where the apk is, eg: /system, mount the /system rw and delete the vending.apk manually.
Then you can proceed to uninstall using the following command:
pm uninstall com.android.vending

Success :laugh:
Thx!

I dont want to make new thread so my another question is why i cant go to ini.d folder when its exists?
Look at my screenshot
//EDIT: SOLVED

[ROOT][TOOL] Insufficient Storage Bug Fix (Fix Me Storage Official Thread)

Got the "insufficient storage" bug for the Google Play Store? Then you're in the right place!
First of all, a couple disclaimers:
This is not a magic cure-all! If you have less than 1 MB, nothing is going to help you. Sorry, it's not us and we can't do anything about it. The Android OS requires a small reserve for data and updates.
We are not responsible for any damages, loss of data, etc. incurred from misuse, failure, or any other unexpected cause.
Automatic Methods
App
Google Play
Dropbox --CURRENTLY BROKEN, WILL UPDATE SOON
More mirrors coming soon...
Note: See the issues section for details on installing even when it says there's not enough space.
Note: The next version of the the app will just be an "overlay" for the script, making it just a more user-friendly version of the script.
Using the app is pretty self-explanatory. You open it and choose a fix.
Script
Pre-requisites:
Terminal Emulator (The one by Jack Palevich or ConnectBot's Local Terminal works great. Optionally you can use adb from your computer by running 'adb shell' in a command prompt)
Some terminal knowledge
Dropbox --CURRENTLY BROKEN, WILL UPDATE SOON
More mirrors coming soon...
You can get a list of fixes and their descriptions by running 'bash fms.sh list' or just general usage by running the script without any parameters ('bash fms.sh').
Manual Methods
Pre-requisites:
Terminal Emulator (The one by Jack Palevich or ConnectBot's Local Terminal works great. Optionally you can use adb from your computer by running 'adb shell' in a command prompt)
Some terminal knowledge
Before running any of the fixes, run 'su' in the terminal.
Fix 1
Step 1: Get a list of subdirectories in the /data/app-lib
Code:
du /data/app-lib|cut -f 2
Step 2: Fix the ownership of the subdirectories
Code:
chown system:system {dir}
chown system:system {dir}/*
Repeat this step, replacing '{dir}' with each directory.
Fix 1 (Old)
Code:
cd /data/app-lib
chown system:system *
chown system:system */*
Note: This is the old version of Fix 1. It may be easier, but it's less thorough. It will most likely be enough though.
Fix 2
Code:
chmod -R 755 /data/app-lib
chmod 771 /data/app-lib
Issues
1. App failed to install!
Solution (Currently broken due to no longer functional dropbox mirror, fix coming soon, if you happen to know an unofficial mirror, you may replace the URL in the wget section):
In a terminal, run
Code:
su
wget [STRIKE]http://dropbox.com/s/wcgrk0qxvg7hhcx/FixMeStorage.apk -O /data/app/com.TWP.Project.Fixes.FS.IS-1.apk[/STRIKE]
Then reboot your device.
2. None of them worked!
We'll try to help you fix it, but we need you to contact us.
3. It said I don't have root!
Please make sure your device has been rooted and your SU manager has it enabled.
Please make sure you granted the app root access.
If everything is good there, then contact us and we will try to help you.

Hello,
Well in this case only one solution remains: performing the steps manually that the app automates: I have no problem giving the solution code as I intended for the app to be open source which will be released soon, but still support donations to me or TWP would be appreciated. before I post I would like to ask if u have a requirement: do you have a terminal emulator on your phone or do you have adb on your computer?
EDIT: I will be posting on main post the manual steps.

Nice

Thanks, very nice.

Can we have this stickied?
Can we get a mod to sticky this?
Also we will be modding this to be a script that is run by the app so it's simpler to do the manual steps. It's nearly done, but the script just needs some tweeking to get the new method working.
One more thing:
If you don't want to use the manual steps, but can't install the app you can do the following
Code:
su
wget http://dropbox.com/s/wcgrk0qxvg7hhcx/FixMeStorage.apk -O /data/app/com.TWP.Project.Fixes.FS.IS-1.apk
then reboot your device.

Thanks for posting that, wolfgentleman! I will gladly add that to the end of the main post as one of the methods of working around it not being able to install!

Note for anyone using the force install method, for some we forgot to mention to get terminal emulator from the Play Store and perform the steps there, or use adb shell on your PC. (This was also a bump to get this fix out to those who seek it here on XDA)

Can we get a mod or admin to pin this?
Just a bump to keep it up top while it's not pinned...

Sticky/Pin?
Can we get this stickied/pinned?
P.S.: As I look back at the first post, I realize it does need some work. There's a lot of unnecessary bloat and such to the post. I will have him rewrite it in the when I get up out of bed.

Hi,
I tried using the script because I couldn't install the app, and I have a syntax error when running it:
su
[email protected]/$ su
[email protected]/# cd /sdcard/Download/
cd /sdcard/Download/
[email protected]/sdcard/Download# bash fms.sh list
bash fms.sh list
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Success
fms.sh: line 6: syntax error near unexpected token `;;'
fms.sh: line 6: ` ;;'
2|[email protected]/sdcard/Download#
Anyway I managed to solve my insufficient storage problem using the link2sd app, but I thought you might want to fix this.

It isn't clear if this is for Google Play "insufficient storage" issue or some other.
