Odex system files. - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Trying to push system odex files, from a different ROM to my current. I've fixed permissions, etc. I can't get it to install. Btw, its the sense clock widget. No matter what I do, I can't find it in the widget list. Even after a reboot. What am i missing? The ROMs are compatible, same Sense version. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

So you are trying to push the HtcClockWidget.apk from your pc to your phone? Have you tried using a file manager to move the file to the app folder?

Actually just using file manager. Didn't figure a push from PC would be any different.
EDIT: Just pushed from pc , till no go.

Have you set group and owner to root? Actually pushing from a pc should give it the correct owner and group, using a file explorer wont. Other than that im not sure why it wont show up.

Both are root and perms are 644. This is frustrating because I can't even get the stock clock back now.

Try flashing this thru recovery after wiping dalvik-cache and the cache partition. (http://dinc.does-it.net/Htc_Clock_Widget.zip)

Try downloading the file above again and flashing it. I have made a couple additions to it that may be needed for the widget to work.

Thank you, but I just restored a nandroid. I was trying to get the EVO classic minimal flip clock on my current hybrid. I'm gonna look at the EVO mikg hybrid. It got a theme with the same clock.
Edit: Just did it the hard way. I just replaced all the .png files and pushed.

So is this?

Noticed today these popped up in the /cache of my phone, wouldnt the update be d/l to this location? no idea what they are could they part of a OTA they are starting to push?
Maybe nothing but figured i'd share just in case it is. how big would the update be you guys think?
I'm running Stock 2.1 rooted

What browser are you using? Have you downloaded any apps with your browser? I seem to remember having the same, maybe when I was using Xscope.....
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
You know, I got those same things. I didn't think twice and just deleted them. I wonder. . .
lol those are leftovers from downloading through any browser. i get those in my downloads folder whenever i downloading something through my phone's internet. You will know when you get the official OTA. nothing will happen to your phone unless you get the pop-up saying there is an OTA available and ask if you would like to download and install it.
Just using the stock browser, have not downloaded anything in quite a while, defanitly not on the 30th?
I though about deleting them but figured i'd ask, besides if they were cache'd data from a browser download why would they be packaged?
Not saying i have something but just found it peculiar they are all packaged and in the root cache where a ota would show up right?
Looks like one is missing ?
OTA doesnt download anything until you approve it.

I believe it actually downloads the OTA and stores in cache before it prompts you. Don't quote me though, I've been wrong before lol

i did the 2.0.1 to 2.1 update on my wife's droid, it didnt download anything until after you approved to do the update. you can also see with the EVO froyo updates, it asks if you want to update over 4g/mobile/wifi or just wifi.
I had no idea what it was but I though maybe they were incrementally pushing pieces or something, I'm new to android, I figured it would probably be nothing but didnt want to delete something that could help someone.
If you think about it, if they pushed a few small pieces to your cache and the the last piece could parse it all and install it wouldnt that save alot of bandwidth for them? or at least even the load? Thats what made me ponder what it was. I'm sure its not browser cache or it wouldnt be a .apk it would probably be a sql db wouldnt it?
I tried to copy them to the root of my sd card but it wouldnt let me for whatever reasonthrough root explorer. maybe i'll copy them out over adb and extract the .apk just to see whats in it, That should tell me.
Anyway figured some other insight would be nice.

I thought someone from Unrevoked said on twitter to the evo users if you get the ota message to upgrade dont do it and the upgrade file would be stored it the root cache? heck iono i've slept since then.
I believe those are failed or canceled .apk downloads.
Why don't you just copy them to your pc and take a peak inside the apk with 7zip?

Put the zip on your memory card...easiest isn't in a folder, boot into recovery and select install zip from sdcard, choose zip from sdcard and then select the zip file. It will say it's complete hit the return button and then reboot
I've been trying to add the apk but XDA keeps crashing when I try to attach it...I'll try another way here soon I guess

New Transparent Google Market 2.3.6

Here's a nice version of the Google Market, based on the latest Market version 2.3.6. It has a blue theme with a translucent background, so you can see your homescreen wallpaper through the Market App.
Just over-write your vending.apk with this one. It's either in /system/app or data/test/froyo/system/app depending on how you installed Market in the first place.

Yeah, some parts didn't come out correctly. I pulled it from a custom CM7 rom, and the text background doesn't show on my phone, but on Archos the text color is inverted. Strange, but still better than the stock version.
maybe I am doing this wrong or missed at step but it didn't work for me. I downloaded opened with Astro file Manager tried to upgrade and it failed installation. I am nonrooted running stock Archos 70IT software.

You need root access to do this. You might be able to copy the apk to the data/app directory, or data/test/froyo/app, if you don't have root with R/W access.
seems pretty~ but any other color?
Probably somewhere, but all I have is blue.
Yikes... I can't seem to get this to work. I am rooted and tired using Astro but it won't let me replace it. Oh well! It sure does look pretty.

You will need to use Root Explorer or ADB to replace it. Astro doesn't use root permissions, so even if you are rooted, Astro is not.

Hah, no problem. I used to forget all the time and try to use ES File Explorer.
I couldnt find the directory you posted(/system/app or data/test/froyo/app)i installed market through gappinstaller v.5.
Edit:I'll try root explorer.

Sorry, for gappinstaller it should be in /data/test/froyo/system/app
Yea,i placed the vending.apk in the wrong directory and it crashed the market,now i cant get it working again,it keeps crashing.I even formatted and reinstalled everything and still no go.

Um, you did a full reformat, and you think it still has something to do with it? There's no way. All you had to do was delete the apk that you put in the wrong place, besides, there's only a couple places you could put it that it would even be recognized.
Sorry for the trouble, but it's unrelated to my apk.
nice!
no more boring market!
OMG ! Thanks dude !
It worked ! OMG !
THANKS !
Hitted the "Thanks" button btw
I tried it, but when you open the detail page of an app, some fields are white. So I like the normal market more, but it's a nice idea.

[REF] Which Apps are Safe to remove after Root?

Thanks to the Devs for the awesomely easy root process. The Tmo SGS2 is my first Android phone and this was my very first root experience. After reading the HOW TO thread, the screen shots below are what I've uninstalled/frozen thanks to Ti Backup Pro. What are you guys uninstalling and what kind of performance gains/battery boosts if any do you think you're seeing?

Anyone know what app handles the 611 redirection ? Thought it would be 411 & more, but I got rid of that and 611 still redirects.
In case anyone doesn't know what I'm talking about, try calling 611 (customer service) - the phone actually drops to another app that turns on the speaker and talks to you there - it's OBNOXIOUS.

After much messing around with my phone, I finally decided to go into system/app and delete the original vvm file, and then go into app manager and turn it off, and uninstall it. I then copied this file over to my sd card, pushed it to sys/app and then rewrote the permissions, rebooted, and FINALLY HAVE THE DARK THEMED VVM!!! Now, whether it stays like that or not, that is to be determined!! But thanks for all the help guys!!:victory:
