[Q] What? - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Rooted my friends Hero, flashed Unrevoked's S-Off first then Darchstar's, flashed nfinitefx45's NFX-Sprint.STOCK.2.32.651.2... and when I try to Push an Apk to the /system/app/ I get "Read-Only File Sytem." Yes I Adb Remounted, so what is it? I thought the Hero was Nand Unlocked?

Try ES File Explorer, or Root Explorer!
Root Explorer I Know Has A
(RW/RO) Button That Allows You To Mess With System Files!

Yup, or from adb do adb remount

Hey guys, just saw your replies and I gotta give a big thanks for them. I normally use Root explorer but its a hit or miss sometimes when trying to make apps work when put in the /system folder and yes I did do ADB remount before trying to push the apk to the system. I thought this was weird because it has never happened to me with my Eris or Droid1. Thanks again for your replies I really appreciate them.

Music Apk

This one can be installed to replace.
http://development.piratemedia.tv/2010-06-06-music-mod-v1-6-mdpi-hdpi/
How to...
Copy the apk to your sdcard. Now for some commands.
Code:
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
rm /system/app/Music.apk
rm /system/app/Music.odex
cp /sdcard/Music.apk /system/app/
chmod 644 /system/app/Music.apk
reboot
That should give you the new music.apk. I had to reboot for the apk to take. Let me know if anyone finds anything else.

looks nice but I *think* it requires root. Also read something about being pushed through AVD so it could be that instead.
It does require root. But well worth it imo

another easy way to do this is to download the sdx app remover
http://roc-city.com/android/SdxAppRemoval-1.5.apk
it creates a folder on your sdcard called sdx, put the file into /sdcard/sdx/backup/app
the app will be listed, just check it and click restore app and it will install it under /system/app

Then just make a backup of a system app and that should make the folder.
Then justv restore the app

If you want to have somethink like this, do:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /data/misc/lockscreen
rm *
After this you have to delete all HTCLockscreen wallpapers.
I prefer to use Android Commander.
Go to /system/customize/resource
delete all wallpaper with *lockscreen.jpg end
After this download zip from attachment, unpack it to sdk/tools dir and:
Code:
adb push HtcLockScreen.apk /system/app
adb reboot
Tested on Robomix 2.0b, It should work on other Hero ROM's. I hope you like it
man...
... dont try this on an ChocolateRom 2.1 :=)...
results in something like this...
you have to know that you have to drag the unlock mechanism from top to bottom^^ - besides the strange look^^
best regards,
mike
I had this when i havent pushed HtcLockScreen.apk - same results
Hmm,
Adb command line told me push was successful... directly afterwards i did the restart.
Can u confirm that it works for 2.1?
Thanks a lot,
Greets,
Mike

TWRP Backup Location

Like the title says, where is the TWRP backup location? When using a file explorer I don't have the folder for TWRP, I wanted to move the backup off my phone but can't access it.

TWRP seems to be tricky on the Moto X. Boot into recovery and mount it from there, and then you should be able to see the folder from your computer.

/data/media/0/TWRP/BACKUPS
Do you know why it saves the backups in there? Some apps like Nandroid can't find its path, do you know how to solve it, mate?
Copy the twrp folder at data/media/0/TWRP to storage/emulated/0/TWRP and change permissions to chmod 777 (rwxrwxrwx)

You can use the command line in a shell or use a app like root explorer, long press on the folder and you will see permissions in the list, go into there and change accordingly

You have to move the files to system/etc first, and then change the permissions after. Worked for me at least.

Maybe because you have no root acces?
