Extra Features on AOSP 1.6

I'm setting up this thread to keep extra functions on AOSP 1.6 & the actual development of AOSP 1.6 separate.
Discuss issues with extra functions in this thread & NOT the AOSP 1.6 thread.

Great thread.
A couple things to do after you get the Googlebits on:
Move su
Code:
#cp /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su
#ls /system/bin/**to verify su copied**
#rm /system/xbin/su
Install busybox symlinks
Code:
#busybox --install /system/xbin/
I'm loving this build. As soon as GPS gets working I'm deleting my 1.5 nandroid backup.

Link perfectly fine for me, site is loading a little slow, but it's still there.

Thanks for posting googlebits.
Just a FYI
its a bit cleaner if you do the following.
unarchive google bits to androidsdk/tools
change dir to androidsdk/tools
adb remount
adb push system/framework /system/framework
adb push system/etc/permissions /system/etc/permissions
adb push system/app /system/app
adb reboot

I prefer to push each file individually but I guess that would work also.

It may be something else I've broken (I've been tinkering), but is anyone getting gmail push with this build?
Mine seems to have stopped. I can check the mail manually, but nothing is getting pushed to me. Since this could be a Google issue, or something I've done, I'm looking for input before i troubleshoot.

thanks so much for this works like a charm

contacts arent syncing
Hi. I'm having a problem getting my contacts to sync up.everything else though is working flawlessly though

Do the protected apps in the market place show up with this rom??
Thanks!

I'm also having issues with new emails being pushed to my phone, but I have been tinkering with SU, so I also may have broke it. I have already installed this on another friend's Hero & I'm going to see if they are having the same issue.
UPDATE:
My friend has not been having an issues receiving new email or with the notifications, so something related to SU or busybox, is possibly causing the issue.

Thanks. I went the whole way back. RUU, rooted with 1.5.2 recovery, flashed quietcblongs 1.6 and copied over googlebits. I'll leave it for a while and verify sync works as expected.
I don't see how busyboxes symlinks or moving su could break it, but your research mirrors mine, so we will see what happens.

Sometime last evening Google syncing stopped again. I'm going to try some mixing and matching with the various 1.5 and 1.6 versions of googlebits.

When i put the code in the cmd it says code not found

i meant error device not found

Did you install the Android SDK? If you did, did first cd to the tools folder of you Android SDK, before you did all the adb commands?

i did i do not know what is wrong

ADB Push

I searched around and couldn't get a clear answer. I'm a noob at anything command prompt/terminal related.
I was screwing around with adb last night after figuring out that I can remove program .apks with the rm <com.whatever.program> command. I got a little trigger happy and removed things that I don't use, just to test it out. I made a nandroid backup before I started. The phone runs fine, but now the Market won't download anything. It just sits on the Starting download... screen.
One of the .apks I removed was GmailProvider.apk. Whether this is the problem or not, I'd like to reinstall it for practice. I can always nand restore later.
So my question is... How can I use adb push to reinstall an apk?
I tried:
Code:
adb push C:\GmailProvider.apk
adb install C:\GmailProvider.apk
adb install C:\GmailProvider.apk \system\app
And about every variation of the 3, in and out of the adb shell.
It didn't work, and I'm at a loss to do anything else. So does anyone have any suggestions?

You have to push it abs then give it permissions.
So after pushing the apk give it permissions by doing this.
Code:
Adb push C:/gmailprovider.apk /system/app/gmailprovider.apk
adb shell
Chmod 775 /system/nameofapp.apk
Exit
Adb reboot
Your phone needs to be rebooted so I added the adb reboot, but you can just turn it off and on like you would normally or use that command.hope it helps.

Okay, I tried:

Ok I see two things that might be wrong with what you did.
Try not capatalizing the first letter(Not sure if this is a big deal but better to make sure.) and fix your path, GmailProvider.apk should be in the system/app folder.
Code:
adb shell
chmod 775 /system/app/GmailProvider.apk
adb reboot
The chmod command (abbreviated from change mode) is a shell command and C language function in Unix and Unix-like environments. When executed, it can change file system modes of files and directories. The modes include permissions and special modes

Yea you might be able to see it but the app might not have the right permissions to be used. Therefore it might be the reason why you can't download apps from market.

Excellent.
Code:
adb push C:/GmailProvider.apk /system/app/GmailProvider.apk
adb shell
chmod 775 /system/app/GmailProvider.apk
adb reboot
Worked like a charm. The capitalization was required; it gave an error without it. I installed Gmail.apk again using the same method and ran the program, and it worked. Thanks!
EDIT: GASP! Market works.
You're a lifesaver. Well, ROMsaver. I guess this means that GmailProvider.apk and gtalkservice.apk can't be removed from the phone.

Don't know what to tell ya, you can start adding back the apks you deleted or do that nand restore since you already know how to install back a system apk, so you learned what you wanted
EDIT: I see you got it to work so that's good news, but like Nestor pointed out always use nand backup before you do any changes to the system area, I've learned to do this the hard way lol.

It's a good reminder
Thanks a ton guys I'll nand backup in a few to have a better restore point.
Learning android-related things ftw!

Oh, one more thing.
I saw something about adding an Environmental Variable to windows that involved adb? Could someone explain that?
- Also, Mikey1022 has reminded me to add the "ADB" directory path as a system variable in windows...
To do this right-click on "My Computer" and select Properties. Next select the Advanced tab(Advanced Settings in Vista) then select Environment Variables.
Click "New" under System Variables and add the following:
Variable: adb
Value: C:\android-sdk-windows-1.1_r1\tools

There's an example. I tried this and it didn't do anything.

i think Thefuzz4.net explained this better
To make life easier, lets add a global path to the android SDK tools. Right-click My Computer > Properties,
click on Advanced, then click on Environment Variables.
Doubleclick on PATH, then at the end of the Variable value, add a semi colon ";" and then c:\AndroidSDK\tools
Doing The above ^^ will let you run adb from anywhere on your computer, like your desktop. You won't have to change to the directory and the run adb anymore, you can just run adb from anywhere on the command prompt. Its basically a little trick for us lazy people that hate having to "cd C:/android/tools" before running adb.

Does anyone know of a good resourse for adb and/or shell commands. Every time i try to goole it i just get links to different forums with just basic stuff, push, pull, ect. Id like to find something much more complete including chmod and the like

Thanks t2. Makes sense now. I hate CDing to the directory, so shortcuts are also ftw.
@above -- couldn't find a real resource so I resorted to asking specific questions on xda. if you find a resource lemme know.
ALSO -- chmod 775 /system/app/RandomProgram.apk.....what does the "775" do?

the different numbers are different permission settings. I forgot the other numbers, but their are others that set the applications for different permissions in the system. Someone correct me if I am mistaken though.

Finally found some explanation of chmod at catcode.com/teachmod/ . not sure if it directly applies to andriod, but seems to make sense to me now

[How To] Install new voice search and quick search

ONLY WORKS WITH ANDROID 2.2 (FROYO)
For those of you that don't know, Google released a new Voice Search that allows "actions". For more info go Here.
First off, I wanna thank Tsenru, klinster, devlogic, BinaryMan, and Synchromatic @ the CM forum for all the info.
This is instructions for ubuntu so make the proper adjustments for windows if needed.
From ADB
Code:
adb pull /system/app ~/Desktop/app/
adb remount
adb shell rm -f /system/app/VoiceSearch.apk
adb shell pm uninstall com.google.android.voicesearch
adb shell rm -f /system/app/GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk
adb shell pm uninstall com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
Once this is done you can search market for "voice search" and "google search" then after they're installed, reboot.
Now for the next step.
If the search hard key doesn't bring up the quick search box (keyboard input), do this.
Code:
adb remount
adb shell ln -s /data/app/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-1.apk /system/app/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.apk
adb reboot
Now all should work!
I had a wierd name for quick search box (com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-1) so keep that in mind if you have any issues.
Now enjoy you fancy new voice search!

tried everyone's suggestions so far, with your suggestions I get:
rm failed for -f, Read-only file system

Worked for me, thanks!

Rather then using the command adb shell mv /data/app/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox /system/app
I suggest the command ln -s /data/app/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-1.apk /system/app/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.apk
ln -s creates a symbolic link to the file rather then moving the file. It keeps the google search file where the installer put it. If you move the file are you causing an issue in the future when the next upgrade comes around?

Changing how to now.

Worked great! thank you!

This worked for me as well. Thanks.

Not having much luck reactivating the search button.
I can confirm that it got the job done cause when I tried again, it popped up an error that the file already exists, so it succeeded in creating the link... any suggestions?

Just tried it, works great. Thanks!

thanks that worked and it was way easier than adb.

I'd love to have this feature, but I get "failure" when I enter the adb shell pm uninstall com.google.android.voicesearch command. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, except that I have no idea what the difference between Ubuntu and Windows commands are.
Thanks for all the hard work. Any help is greatly appreciated.`
EDITED: I got it working. Not sure how. Even though I got a "failure" during the adb uninstall, the old voice search appears to have uninstalled already. Went to the market and downloaded the new app and it works!

keyboard install problems nook 1.2 rooted

I can't seem to get any other keyboards to work. I have a stock NC 1.2 that was rooted first with MiniRooter (I think it is called) that OC'd it with the 1.2 GHz Kernel and then I MN with the most recent one as it had more options I wanted. But I can't seem to get a keyboard to work.
I have the gingerbread keyboard and thumb keyboard apk's and put them both in system/app with Root Explorer, reboot and nothing, I have tried to manually install them by clicking and using the package installer, nothing. Don't know what is up. none of them show up in the nook color tools under keyboard, but they show up in the manage programs...

anyone? It doesn't seem to make sense and I don't know enough about Android to troubleshoot.

all i have to do to try new keyboards is:
1) download new kb from the market.
2) install the new kb.
3) go into settings and make sure the keyboard is checked.
4) go to a text field and long press.
5) keyboard options will appear.
6) check the kb you want to use.
thats it. thats all i have to do for a new keyboard.
not sure about pushing the kb apk into syetem/app maybe its best to just install them.

I'm pretty sure that you'll HAVE to use ADB. Here's what I just did with the SlideIT keyboard on rooted 1.2. I put the apk on C: of my PC. Then in adb typed:
Code:
cd \
adb push <application_name>.apk /system/app
adb reboot
After the Nook reboots go into NookColor Tools, tap Keyboards and you should see it there.
If we're talking about SlideIT downloaded from the Market, then in ADB you may need to do:
Code:
adb shell remount rw
adb pull /data/app/<application_name>.apk
adb rm /data/app/<application_name>.apk
adb push <application_name>.apk /system/app
adb chmod 644 /system/app/<application_name>.apk
adb shell remount ro
Then reboot >nookcolor tools>keyboards>slideit.

Are you getting that after typing:

If so, try typing

The apk is in the right place if it's in root on C: (and it is). Typing cd \ is pointing adb to look into C: for the apk you're trying to install. It's probably not the cleanest way to do it, but I've just always done it that way so people might wanna paint me silly.

EDIT: Nevermind, I used rootexplorer to get it r/w and now the keyboard is there thanks a lot!

Are you in recovery or is your nook booted up?
Reboot your Nook and try
Code:
adb kill-server
again. Then
Code:
adb start-server
And attempt to install again. If that doesn't work, if your nook is still booted up (not in recovery), try:
Code:
adb remount
and try to install. If that doesn't work, try:
Code:
mount -o rw,remount
If you're trying to do this with your Nook booted into recovery, try:
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtd3 /system
to get read/write and go from there.

My Kindle is alive. If someone need this files too, they can be found in the Update.bin at Amazons website.
@crzyjoker13. Good luck with your device.

Here you go, pulled straight from the latest update...
It's just the files you requested, the file structure should be correct.

Your need to get the device to be picked up by ADB and then push the files if your not able to boot into the actual system itself. Your have to ask someone else for the commands... but here's a snippet for services.odex the rest the files should be similar pieces of commands.
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 777 /system/framework
exit
exit
adb push services.odex /system/framework
adb reboot

well hey this is a step in the right direction but all I need now Is to gain read write acess to /system and system/app abd I should bea able to push the old files back...my problem lies in the fact that es explorer tried to update and it messed up so I went to remove and just install the new version at the same time I was following the directions to put play market on the dev so now I can download and I have no file explorer
or if anyone know how I can push and execute an apk to the kindle I would be happy

I was having the same problem as you are and was able to fix it by doing the following.
Download and extract the files NighthawkXL has provided.
From within the folder that you saved the files run command and do the following
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 777 /system/framework
exit
exit
adb push services.odex /system/framework
adb push DownloadProvider.odex /system/framework
adb push DownloadProviderUi.odex /system/framework
exit
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 777 /system/app
exit
exit
adb push DownloadProvider.apk /system/app
adb push DownloadProviderUi.apk /system/app
adb reboot
I think this will solve your problem with the downloads not working. Please keep in mind I have small amount of knowledge when it comes to rooting, but figured that it couldn't do more damage to it since it wasn't working.

You can get them from Amazon's website. That's your best bet at this time.

Just downloaded .bin gonna check this out also. I didn't brick mine its usable but I screwed it up trying to take things off to get more memory and easier on battery. Runs ok now but I took off the system keyboard thinking the android keyboard file would be it the asop or whatever. So had to add Google keyboard which is better and the main navigation is gone with the back and menu key. ROFL. Using all in one gestures and omega status bar as a rig lmao.
adb install package.apk works fine after adb start-server with linux.
Theres app in 1 mobile market for moving .apk to /system/app folder.
