Help with Pushing apps

Ok so I am trying to get friend stream to work in the new fresh rom. I got the apk from damages rom along with the widget. In cmd I successfully push the apps /system/app/ after typing in adb remount. However after I reboot the app is not there. How do I get this to work? Also was wondering how to port a system app from a darchlegend rom to work on any other rom. Any advice is welcome.

Wont work, period. It needs an .odex for both the widget and the normal .apk for it to work in the latest release.

Ok I can pull the odex file but where does that go? Or is that something created when the apk is compiled if so any good tuts for editing and recompiling?

I was kind of hoping TitaniumBackup would give me this one...
I can't find the odex...
But I read from the other Hero forum that Friendstream may require an update package.

Original Apps from Stock (Not A Request)

Mods, please sticky.
I'm getting tired of asking for APKs of stock files, so I have ripped apart the original system.img, and uploaded it to my MediaFire. This should contain all of the APKs from /system/app. Upon request, I'll rip some other ROMs apart and upload the apps from them onto MediaFire.
http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=...0a80bbfd46652c42972c62268198c95645c60d3adceb4

You can also just download the slidemeroot.zip rom, which is everything stock and copy the apk's right out of the zip file.

But now you don't have to download the entire ROM for a single APK.

I also have all of the stock apk's uploaded on my web server, but it's probably not a good idea to be redistributing them for anyone to download. Something about distribution of copyrighted works... etc...

That would be like killing XDA for hosting custom ROMs modified off originals.

Are you using an odex'ed rom? (are there .odex files in your /system/app/ folder other than the ones you just copied over there?)

It's the ROM. I believe I either unyaffs'd or flashed, and pulled before booting the first time. I just re-unyaffs'd again to make sure, and yes, most, if not all, apps go have an odex.

We'll see what happens, but, like I said, I doubt the mods would ask everyone to remove their cooked ROMs containing any APKs.

I'm looking for the original media (ie: notification sounds and ringtones) can someone point me in the right direction?

How does one install these?

Download one of the stock/ota roms. They're in the system/media/audio folder.

How do I unpack the IMG file inside the zipfile?

Some people dont like their Call History and Text History combined into 1 big history log. This removes that so that each have their own logs.

Does anyone have the original logs provider apk cause this one ****s up the phone and makes it force close when you hang up a call and when you go into the logs then resets the radio.
Fixed. Thanks http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14851129#post14851129

Sorry but this did not work for me.
I got a bunch of FC and then I rebooted and everything was back to the way it was.
UPDATE: got it working now.. See below.

It did work for me. I placed it on my SD card then used Root Explorer to move it to my system/app folder (you have to have it set to read/write, thus you need root access), then let it overwrite the current version, rebooted, cleared my logs, and tested it, and it works for me. I'm on Deodexed, Rooted EF02 with busybox (no idea wtf busybox is). The op was updated and the download fixed at some point, not sure when, maybe you have the older version. I would suggest giving it another try.

When I did this a couple of days ago it didnt work on Odexed or Deodexed. I had to obtain the original one and deal with the sms showing in the call logs. One way around it (for now) is Im using the Go Dialer because it doesnt include SMS in the call log

OK I think it may have worked now. I deleted the "Logsprovider.odex" file in system/app and reboot once again and no more FC. I cleared out the logs and now waiting for a few calls and texts to see if the logs are fixed now.

Seems to be working great now! The only thing I did different was delete that odex file. I read some where that that's what worked for them.
Thanks for This and all the help!
PS All the old logs were still there until I deleted them, so at first it didn't look like it worked.

11/18/12 For all that have deleted system files and want to upgrade to JB

For all of you that have deleted files from the AT&T AHD, and now want to upgrade to JB, you're going to need all your files intact, or your update will fail.This also goes for the time when we receive our OTA to JB.
I've zipped up the /system/app, and /vendor/app files from 144 ,and uploaded them so you don't have to do a complete downgrade via RSD Lite and lose all your info.
Simply replace the files you deleted with root explorer, and you can update to JB.
DOWNLOAD HERE
EDIT: Dev Host was being flaky yet again, so I had to use Hotfile to host the files

What's this for? Sorry my bad English

Thanks for this. I'm sure it would help a lot of people.

Correct! If you've deleted any of your apps that came with the original OS, you'll not only be unable to flash the JB leak update, but you'll be unable to take any OTA.
Once again, the uploaded files are the entire contents of the 144 ICS /system/app, and /vendor/app.

Ok, tahnks

What can we do if we deleted apps from the JB leak? These files would be different than the ones you posted correct. I would like to do the ota leak update but deleted some motobloat.

Is the original bootanimation content of this files?
Its the only thing i deleted...(stock ics).

Bump
For all those having trouble upgrading to 4.1

Thanks for the link...:good:
Really havent found it agian...
Question...Downloaded it---installed at&t code scanner(one of the 4 apps titanium "destroied") to system-apps---but it says the app is downloaded, not a system app when i go to: settings----apps!
Is that the right way to install the missed apps again?
And again...where can i find the stock at&t boot animation??
Thx so much!:good:

You'll want to move the apk to system/app and change permissions to the same as everything else in that folder, then reboot.

??
Omg...going crazy. How to change permissions??

Got it...:good:
Apps and vendor apps are back with permissions...
Made it with rom toolbox...
The only thing still changed is the bootanimation!!! It only depends on this.
How can get the stock at&t animation back???
Plssss.

Will the changes be applied to the whole OS I mean the theme of other apps like root explorer will also change or what ?
Because root explorer uses the default theme of android it looks different on different ROMS

I think that while you use tw, it will be the same for apps like root explorer, my files and so on. some of the roms are themed so that may be why it looks different. can't really say as I prefer just plain stock, and even with holo launcher hd it uses the tw colors when opening apps.

Since you edited the SecPhone.apk check the in-call Dailer. And you don't have to create a flashable zip, you can just push file to /system

In call_dailer_press.9.PNG refers to the pressed button and in call_keypad_BG_01.PNG refers to the keypad I've edited only the later one but changes just don't show up this is the first time I've encountered such an error...
