[q] metamorph error! - myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps

Ive tried almost everything possible.
I cant seem to install Metamorph correctly because each time i install it and open the app, it closes out and says it needs more space in /system.
Im not sure what that means.
Ive tried using RootExplorer but each time i deleted a app from /system/app after a reboot it would reappear.
Any sugguestions and/or help?
I have searched in the Android forum and in here but i cant find anything that works..
If you can fix my problem please be KIND enough to share!
IF not .. read and move on! thanks!

Unless I am mistaken, at this time we are not able to use Metamorph as we do not have rw access to necessary directories.

Well that makes tooooottaalll sense!
Thanks! : )

With the new script dumfuq released it is now possible to use metamorph as I can at least go through the steps with out phone rebooting
Try it out lemme know

^^^ if metamorph is possible please someone confirm

the main issue before was the rw system . Now we can with dumfuq I have been messing around with it and still learning. But once again now that we can rw i would almost say yes. I just need a more defined tuturial for the slide metamorph personally

Using the new overlay I installed MetaMorph 1.99 and it keeps force reboot while doing the checks.

Have you rebooted your phone since flashing dumfuqs rw-overlay script? I an not sure if the script is perm or just a temp thing.
Aka tried opening mm and it rebooted then flashed rwoverlay and tried mm again and it was fine .

Tried both, kept force rebooting. Maybe it's the new Fenix/Nightly.

really? youtube didn't work.. pretty sure that's what I have on mine, not 100% sure, but i'll double check it...
I think for youtube you can just do a Package Installer install, might have to do a adb push for that.

When I tried to adb install I got Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK]
When I tried adb push then a reboot, it doesn't show up in my app drawer, I think the only new feature of the You Tube was the widget, so I gave up on it quickly and restored the original

hmm what method did u use to install the nav? the one i used changed my build prop and build number maybe that was the reason perhaps i need to push back the old prop.....
I started with a fresh install of cyanogen 4.2.4 wiping my ext4 partition and starting new because of what I read about some programs crashing after editing the prop files.
Then I edited the build.prop line
ro.build.version.release=1.6 to
to
ro.build.version.release=2.0
Then edited build.trout.prop line (use build.sapphire.prop if using MyTouch)
ro.build.fingerprint=tmobile/kila/dream/trout:1.6/DRC83/14721:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys
to
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/voles/sholes/sholes:2.0/ESD20/17572:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys
Then booted into the system and installed all my usual apps, haven't had any problems with apps crashing or NAV dissappearing at all
I also found the change needed to get the new YouTube app to work, in the build.prop file change
ro.build.version.sdk=4
to
ro.build.version.sdk=5
I found this in another thread, not my actual work that figured this out, doing another fresh install with cyanogenmod 4.2.5 with this edit also, I'll report back any adverse side effects of this change.
So to recap so far using Maps, Facebook & You Tube apps from the droid dump
****Edit****
After changing the sdk value I started getting fc's for the new facebook for everything, I couldn't even log in, changing the value back to 4 allowed me to log in and it was working normally but the new You Tube app disspaeared from the app drawer. It appears to me at this point I'll have to choose one or the other!!

You can get spare parts from the market but it doesnt need root access. SOme of the newer ROMS, for the G1 atleast, had a spareparts where you could configure swap and cc. I dont know if thats the one he got working.

I also tried the the meltus volume hack and that doesn't appear to increase the volume even after allowing SU. Now as for the live wall papers I installed a couple from the market and they all show up under the adw launcher without me pushing the files through.

Do we know if Wired-Tether works? I haven't rooted yet as I have found a method that works without root on my Ubuntu, but I've been having a hell of a time finding a free, user-friendly method for my wife's windows.
has anyone tried TA Utility?

I'm happy to hear that CacheMate works. I have the Slide but have not had any luck rooting it (I still don't believe it can be done ). CacheMate technically requires busybox so I'm not sure why it's working. I don't make direct calls to busybox but I know that it adds some of the some core functionality to apps like mine such as cp and mv. This is why some files managers specifically for root will not work without busybox.
I'm assuming a simpler root method will be available soon enough and ROMs everything else will be made available to get all the root apps working perfectly. If the Slide was mine and not my wife's, I would not have given up on trying to root it. Anyway, glad to hear CacheMate works and people are enjoying it on the Slide.
Chachemate is working for me as well.
AndroidAppCritic - One thing I did to get ADB to see the Slide in Recovery was format the memory card before I did anything. I left it in there the whole time too. That worked on two Slides. Pulling the memory card out before Fastboot saw it then popping it back in right before Recovery came up wouldn't work for me.
That is, of course, if that is the problem you were having.

I know it's off topic but believe me when I tell you that I've tried every possible suggestion. I own dozens of SD cards from 2GB class 2 to 16GB class 6 in every imaginable brand. I even tried my gold card from the myTouch. But apparently it really is possible. I guess I don't care as much since it's not mine.

Multi-Touch Keyboard

This is the DX keyboard and has been successfully put onto the fascinate, credit goes to adrynalyne for putting this together. This version should not give you FC errors when you reboot the phone
Needs to be flashed with clockwork!

I'm sorry how do you install this?
Edit: found out how.
cool thanks.. i was looking for this!

take a non-multi-touch keyboard and press one key then try to press another key. It will only pick up on the first key that you press.
You can type with 2 fingers but it's like you have to use one finger at a time fairly slow.

I originally installed the .apk of this keyboard and got FC's. I cleared the entire devlik cache and installed this .zip via clockwork and I'm still getting FC's. Any ideas?
Alright I figured it out. FOR THOSE OF YOU HAVING A FORCE CLOSE WITH "LATIN" IN THE NAME, these are the steps that I took (if you've already flashed via clockwork):
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR PHONE, this is just how I fixed this issue.
1.) Go into system/app and DELETE your DXkeyboard.apk
2.) Go into data/devlik cache and delete the line that has "DX.." in the name (i forgot what its called)
the above two steps thus far are what I DID, they may not be necessary.
3.) unzip the dxkbd file that was in the OP on your desktop
4.) go into "system" and you'll see "app" and "library"
5.) copy the .apk file and .so file from "app" and "library" respectively and put them on your sdcard
6.) using root explorer, move the .so file to system / lib
7.) using root explorer, move the .apk file to system / app
8.) DELETE "latinIME" apk and odex
9.) DELETE latintutorial (or something like that, its right under latinIME odex i believe)
10.) reboot
With the exception of deleting things, thats precisely what the package in the op does.

Market update unsuccessful?

I am unable to download/update new apps and existing apps via the market because i keep getting an error that says unsuccessful download. I flashed over the new 2.2.6 market into my phone and i still get the same problem. It turns out that only apps that are in the sdcard are affected, and moving them back into the phone will finally allow them to be updated with no problems.
I tried everything i could find on the internet, clearing cache/data and stuff like that, but they dont work. One method that does work is a factory reset but i dont wanna lose my stuff right now. Usually when i get this problem i'll just wait out a few hours and try again but i had this problem since last night and i also read about people who had them for over a month!
Is there any fix to this? Or is the market just broken? Running on CM6.1-N1
cmon 56 views and still no answer? I know many people have encountered this problem before. Is there any solution to this?
Probably because there's 56 threads on the same subject...

I am stuck on "App not Installed". I can't figure that out. I am on CM 6.1.0 on 2.2.1. I tried clearing cache, renaming file to update.zip and going into recovery to install from SD Card. I can't figure it out. Any ideas?
Try unmounting your SD card in settings...

Didnt work for me. :/
Alright think i fixed it. Just tried updating an app that is in SDcard and it updated fine.
Found the solution here:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...all-around-failures/page__p__24608#entry24608
1. Open Terminal Emulator on the phone
2. Type su to activate SuperUser
3. Once the $ sign turns to # type in the above code
4. That should do it
And BTW - it's smdl2tmp1.asec (with the letter L before the 2) not smd12tmp1.asec (with the number 1)

[Q] can't download market apps; recently resized partitions

so last night i used firerats custom mtd partitions tool on my hero. i run cm7.0.2 with a optimus 2x theme. i resized the system parition to 112mb i think. im certain thats enough, nothings gone wrong or missing. but when i go to download an app from the market, in particular metamorph, it will start the download bar, and then just stop. i assume it has something to do with the partition moving. i did a reboot, nothing happened. how do i fix this, preferably without having to go back the the previous partition map?
