[Q] Package Installer Missing! - Epic 4G General

My rooted phone crashed the other night - wouldn't boot passed the Galaxy S screen. So I wiped it clean.
When I tried to install a program, the Package Installer was missing from the list of actions.
I flashed back to stock ROM.
It's still not showing up in my actions menu.
When I go to settings/applications/ALL - it shows Package Installer at 0.00B.
What the heck?

Odin back to stock EC05.

Stock EC05 Tar file (not rooted) hosted by k0nane

I already unrooted and flashed back to stock using these instructions: http://samsungepichacks.com/samsung-epic-hacks/how-to-unroot-samsung-epic-4g/
I will try the method from the website you suggested now though.

Never heard of that website and it keeps timing out on me.
You're better off using the video linked above to Odin back to stock. This will erase all your data, so either start from scratch or back up your apps and whatnot.

Bad news...I followed the instructions from your suggested video.
Put on SPH-D700-DG27-8Gb-REL.tar
Still...the Program Installer doesn't show up on the ACTIONS menu!
It goes Music, then Phone, the gTalk Settings....
Grrrrrrrrrr.
Any other ideas?

So are you trying to side load an application? Meaning you have "Unknown sources" checked under the Settings > Applications menu, and have an apk file to install.
The phone won't install that apk file? Or are you looking for something else to happen when you touch the file on the screen?
If none of the above, then I'm lost at what you're trying to accomplish.

Correct. I'm just trying to load up some apk's that I have on SugarSync/DropBox/SD Card/etc. Unknown Sources is checked.
When I click on the apk - it gives me the action menu. None of those actions is Package Installer. It used to be there, now it isn't. I've loaded all my programs this way in the past.
I tried Odin again and put on the EC05 tar file. Same result. No Package Installer listed in the actions menu.

Man, I just don't know. This is my first time reading of such a problem on the Epic forum.
Using Odin and that tar file gives you 100% stock Froyo. You can then install apk files once the "unknown sources" option is selected.
Did you re-install any other applications after using Odin or restore your data? That could be your culprit, which would mean you'd have to start from scratch (aka clean install).

Starting from total scratch.
It's a mystery.
The only thing I installed was SugarSync so that I could get to the files.
I even tried downloading ASTRO File Manager and using their installer that shows up on the actions menu. That used to work to install...but it doesn't anymore. It just sticks.
I guess maybe I need to go to the Sprint Store. Good thing I flashed her

Does your Package Installer show up as 0.00B in the Settings/Applications/ALL menu?

Same Problem
I just bought the Motorola Triumph for Virgin Mobile and I have the same problem. Well a similar problem. I went to see if there was an OTA update and it says "Install Package not found". So I went to the All list of applications and my Package Installed is 0.00 also. I did notice that a lot of other system apps are 0.00 also. Here's the list of them:
Account and Sync Settings
Activation Utility Service
Aging Test
Android Live Wallpapers
Android System
Battery Parameter Upgrade
BlueToothTestMode
BTtools
CDASYS
Certificate Installer
DbgCfgTool
E-Compass Calibration
Env_Runin_Vibrator_Tool
Fallback
FM Radio
FQC Program
G-Sensor Calibration
GasGaugeLogging
Gps Deleter
Home screen tips
HTML Viewer
Live Wallpaper Picker
logtools (I had two of these)
Magic Smoke Wallpaper
Media Container Service
Package Installer
Pico TTS
SD Card test
SIM Toolkit
Sound Recorder
System Update
Terminal Emulator
TTS Service
Voice Dialer
VPN Services
Wifi Comman
Wifi Test
It's a pretty extensive list. I did root it, but I know I had the update problem before I rooted it so I don't think that did anything to it. Hopefully we can figure out why they are messed up for both of our sakes. Thanks!

Wow man... I'm glad you were able to assist the people affected, but the attitude/negative tone is unnecessary. I just saw the post requesting me [or anyone for that matter] to share the files.
I stated that using Odin to go back to stock may be best. He/She was discussing a problem with what many would consider a core function, being able to install an application. Finally, CWM often gives bad flashes, so in my mind it appeared to be a logical suggestion to start with 100% stock and work from there to find the culprit.
I did not share the APK files because I got busy, forgot about the post and missed the request.

no android market on my HTC

Hi everyone,
I bought my HTC Hero in Moscow and it came without the android market. How can I resolve that??
Thanks in advance.
guess this is already solved in these forums, search for market enabler
use the forum search in future
Thanks for the info, but I think you did not get it right. The phone does not have at all the market application. The market enabler as I understand enables somehow the connection. I dont have the application itself to even start it.
We are in the same boat. It appears that certain HTC Hero in certain countries don't have Market app (afaik Malaysia, Vietnam). Market is replaced by SlideME's SAM.
I'm from Malaysia, own the phone and I can confirm there is no Market in Malaysian Hero.
hmm, then i suggest you to try to install for example the original htc rom or a custom rom like modaco.. if you want to have it "original" i would recommend the original "clear" htc rom..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559622
edit: i think the problem is, that the market is bound to your country/region.. i dont know what happens if you install an wwe htc rom on your phone, but you should give it a try ;-)
Kyrillos,
You can enable SAM by looking for it's installer at the right page of you center scene Else, look for SAM in your bookmarks.
Is it possible to have Android Market by downloading it's apk? Or is the Market embedded to the phone which subsequently make it impossible to have Market in the 'less fortunate' Hero?
felikz,
I tried, but the update failed with this error:

I guess the only way is to root the phone and flash it with another ROM. I have two years warranty and the distributor in my country said if I mod the software of the phone, it'll void the warranty :-(
It's either make or break for me.
Bro Geochelone, I oso bot the HERO 3 days ago and were quite sad that Malaysia's version doesn't come with Android Mkt. I think we missed out a lot.
Tried Slide Me, not much application I think as compare to Apps Store...
Did you enjoy the phone?
asdf8888, I flashed my ROM with the latest WWE update, now I have Market
Market > SAM.

hey bro can teach me or guide me how to do that? totally new to android phone so hope you can bear with me
thanks in advance
asdf8888,
You can start here. In the article, they specifically suggest to use Linda File Manager, which is not available from SAM. Fortunately, you can use OI File manager.
There's also an update for flashrec, available here.
To load the WWE ROM, you can follow this. Instead of MoDaCo, replace it with official ROM which is available here. Pick the generic one
If you are not sure, ask. I'm more than happy to help
Dear Geochelone, sorry to disturb during the holiday period. But i still cannot accomplish what u have tot me.
1. I have install the OI File Manager
2. i have updated with flashrec, as instructed
3. I copy the WWE ROM into my SD card, i try to restart it by pressing (MENU + ON) button together; and everytime i do that, it hang and i need to remove the battery and try it again.
which steps did i go wrong...
please help... the helpless
sorry bro to disturb u during thius holiday period. I try by doing the following;
1. I downloaded the OI File Manager into the phone;
2. Updated the flashrec
3. Copied tthe WWE ROM into the SD card, and then try to on the phone by pressing the ON + MENU button together. Each time i do that, the phone will hang and i need to remove the battery and retry it.
what have i done wrong....
pls help bro, really wanted to give up oredi...
sorry to bother u again...
which ROM u are using, i have try i think all of them and the message is the same as your in your previous post date 18 sept.
i have downloaded the OI File Manager and oso updated the flashrec....
still cannot.
really sad unable the enjoy the devise...
pls guide me... thanks
Sorry I missed the this particular thread completely :-(
OK. I specifically picked this.
You missed the most important step Flashing the recovery image.
1. Install OI File Manager.
2. Put the flashrec into your sdcard.
3. Put this ROM into you sdcard. You may want to rename it to update.zip before you transfer it to sdcard.
4. Put this recovery image into your sdcard.
5. With the file manager, browse your sdcard and install flashrec.
6. If you haven't done it, rename update-hero-generic-2.73.405.5-rooted-signed.zip to update.zip with the file manager.
7. Open flashrec, click backup (the last button of the program). Wait.
8. At the box, type sdcard/Recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.2.img, then click the button just below the box. Wait.
9. Now you flashed your Hero with recovery image. Turn off your Hero.
10. Hold POWER and HOME simultaneously. You will enter Android system recovery.
11. Choose Wipe data/factory reset. I ASSUME YOU ALREADY MADE YOUR BACKUP. Else, choose Reboot system now and do your backup.
12. After wipe, choose Apply sdcard:update.zip. Wait.
13. Choose Reboot system now.
14. Smile as your Hero is rooted. Watch it boots and gives you the Market
bro thanks a lot, finally I got my Market, and now starting to enjoy the phone.
You are simply the best.... really thanks a lot, even the person who sold me the phone was not able to help me.
cheers, happy holiday
I'm happy for you
BTW, where you from sir?
Kuala Lumpur, yourself?

You could always try Agile Lock from the market. May be what you are looking for as far the lock ring lock screen.

It has the ring lock screen...just not all of the bells and whistles that go along with it. I will not be making a rom until I have the full RUU for the leak...once I get that, my rom will be based off that.
Got the full sense 3.0 lock screen cooked in and its uploading now.

I didn't wipe everything last night before flashing from LR4.2 and it didn't give me any problems. I wiped all data and reflashed and got an FC on Talk, FC on GooglePartnerSetup, and Vending.apk and GoogleServicesFramework.apk would not install...I fixed all of these issues with the uploaded rom. Sorry for my half-assedness last night...but it was like 1 in the AM lol so I was tired. Enjoy the fixed rom once its uploaded and please feel free to ask if you are having issues. Just be sure to ask in a manner that makes your problem known and not ask something like "Why is my phone is busted..."

[Q] "Hello world, PM EasyView!"? Possible malware caught on screenshot?

I recently took a screenshot that revealed another background window behind a warning message window that says "Hello world, PM EasyView!"
Is this some kind of malware? I tried scanning my phone with Lookout Security and it did not detect anything suspicious.
It all began when all of a sudden my stock 2.2.2 Defy's Task Manager kept showing popup messages telling me that my Hotmail app is running for too long and is consuming memory. This never happened before, ie. Task Manager app showing warning messages about apps running for too long. I suspect a malware infestation. Please advise.

If you are scared that you are infected by malware the only "safe" thing to do is a full data wipe.
You dont have clockworkmod installed do you? Would be helpfull to have a full copy of the system to analyze it. I think clockworkmod would be a perfekt method to get a copy of the whole system.
sorry i don't know how to solve this. maybe it's time for you to change to some other ROMs...

Well not exactly scared but I was just wondering about the origin of that "Hello world" message. "PMEasyView"? I wasn't able to find any app or developer by that name among the apps installed on my phone. Just was wondering if anyone here knew thats all. I rooted my phone using SuperOneClick, does it install Clockworkmod too? Or do I have to do it separately?

I did install CM 7.1(2.3.7) but I didn't quite like it..I mean don't get me wrong..CM 7.1 is awesome but the ADW launcher kept crashing on me, something was eating up the battery way to fast and this is weird but I found that the sound quality(headphone and speaker) had actually deteriorated..maybe I didn't get some settings right but anyways I decided to roll back to the Motorola stock 2.2.2 froyo JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-36-1.7 and wait until CM9 was out.
Thanks for the replies guys..really appreciate you taking the time.

If adw doesn't work for you, you can download another one from the market. I use go launcher and it works without any problems and damn fast. You should give it a try.

Well it's typical behavior of mallware - I dont have information, that stock task manager will inform you, that some process is running more than x minutes ... try wipe to factory settings and you'll be sure.
Rooting doesn't install Clockworkmod. You only get superuser after rooting. Install 2nd-init and you get Clockworkmod.
You should start using Droidwall and AVG antivirus pro. Try limit the data freedom running in the background.
Thanks for the replies guys. I think I'll wait for CM9. I do have Droidwall installed and I've scanned my phone thoroughly with Lookout Security but nothing was detected. Is it possible that the firmware posted here, the 2.2.2 India one is somehow infected?

I took another screenshot of the supposed malware today, this time without the task manager message. I was able to dismiss the task manager message by pressing the search key somehow.
I have seen exactly that same message today. I thought I have been fairly careful about Malware. However, there was an update that was installed from marketplace today.
I wonder if it is possible to look at an update history.

Is the message window in your case appearing under the exact same circumstances as mine? Which ROM are you using? And also if its possible could you do an inventory of the all the apps installed on your phone, then perhaps we can pinpoint the source. Thanks for the reply.

[Question for MM users] Uninstalling Facebook makes your Auto rotation stop working?

*** ONLY DO THIS FOR TESTING PURPOSE ***​
Those who have got the MM update, could you please check whether uninstalling Facebook app via Titanium makes your auto rotation to stop working? Some say it doesn't, some say it does.
I took a screen record while uninstalling it, make sure you are doing the exact same steps. For the record, uninstalling ONLY the apk is enough to mess it up, I still went on and removed the other Facebook system stuffs out of frustration.
Please comment.
I always uninstall Facebook & "company" and other trash again, and never had problems with rotation on kitkat , lollipop and marshmallow.

Have you solve it?
It seems that is true, and after flashing the stock rom and uninstalling lot of bloatware (except all the facebook stuff) auto rotation works now.

Yes, by re-flashing the stock ROM[emoji23]And then not touching those Facebook related craps.
PS:
@HDxDaniel
Could you tell me whether you have uninstalled any of these apps? Because I don't use these! S Voice isn't listed as it's a system app, I don't use that either.

I uninstalled most of those apps except Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, Play newsletter and maybe another app too.
I noticed one thing today, if you use an app like System App Remover, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp&hl=en
, then uninstall Facebook and other craps, then the rotation works normally. So it could be Titanium doing something crazy here, don't know!
I have the same problem (or I think so), I removed Facebook and Instagram applications with titanium backup and noticed my screen can't auto-rotate now
Anyone can upload the libgnustl_shared.so file ? I don't feel like flashing the whole system file again...
Thanks

Anyone can upload the libgnustl_shared.so file ? I don't feel like flashing the whole system file again...
Thanks

After flashing the zip from the first post of this thread, the screen rotation is working again, seems like removing Samsung hub with titanium backup messed things
It looks like only reflashing the stock FW will help
I had the same problem tried every possible solution in this forums none worked
Maybe titanium or i flashed ios emoji for google keyboard!! But that never happened when was on Lollipop!! Now back to Odin
lol

Here you are my friend:

@yucelo I've already found the file in another thread, but thanks anyway
This happened to me multiple times on Lollipop.
Use a file manager with root capabilities and uninstall the .apk files manually
Sent from my SM-N910F using XDA-Developers mobile app
SAR system app remover done the deal

Somebody, give this man a medal! Saved my butt reflashing ROM again. Just copy to system/lib change permission to rw-r--r-- and reboot. You think it's caused by Titanium Backup? In that case? We should notify them.
yeah..... I got this too 2 days ago.
I uninstall some bloatware, including facebook with titanium backup.
then I realize that screen rotation doent work anymore.
I check the gyro, gravity, accel sensor. all works fine, but screen rotation wont work.
So I restore my backup ROM, and everything is fine again.
and yeah.... I just tried uninstalling facebook again, but this time I use System App Remover https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp&hl=en
auto rotation is still works.
Same here... I've done some testing removing bloatware and it's Titanium Backup's fault... I had to reflash the custom rom I'm using several times to reach this conclusion...
I had the same problem, & for whatever reason that version of the file failed to work for me. I had success with this one, following the same steps. https://www.4shared.com/file/ivpHIjBNce/libgnustl_shared.html

Out of curiosity, where did you get that file from?
I've just made a flashable zip with my working libgnustl_shared.so so I can replicate the issue later on and see if this solution works for me...
I downloaded this rom, extracted the zip, & copy pasted libgnustl to system/lib & changed permissions. Hopefully the individual upload will save someone else 1.49gb
The other version of libgnustl that was posted here didn't work for me, I tried it 3-4 times. My phone is a N910T.
It was a happy accident- I was planning on following someone else's success of extracting system.img.ext4 & flashing that file with skip soft, or more likely reverting to stock before I thought 'what if...'
A big thank you to everyone who shared the info to finding a solution

[FIX] How to install Google+ (Google Maps Framework/App Incompatible With Device Fix)

I discovered a solution on how to make Google+ work on Phoenix OS. This might enable other apps to work as well, please report your findings.
Instructions:
Download and extract maps-framework.zip
Download latest Google+ APK (I used v9.18.0: APKMirror | Google Drive)
Using Root Explorer or a root file manager of your choice:
Copy com.google.android.maps.xml from the extracted folder and paste it into /system/etc/permissions. Perform a chmod of 644 on the file
Copy com.google.android.maps.jar from the extracted folder and paste it into /system/framework. Also perform a chmod of 644 on the file
To perform chmod in Root Explorer, click and hold on a file, click on the three menu buttons, click on Permissions, press Enter Octal, type in 644, and finally press OK twice. If you're using another root file manager, I could imagine the steps would be similar.
Restart Phoenix OS
Install Google+ APK that you downloaded earlier
Optional: If you want to update it to the latest version, open up the Play Store and update Google+ there.
How I discovered this solution is by trying to install Google+ APK through Lucky Patcher. When I tried to install it, it gave me this error message:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I performed a Google search on "Google Plus install failed missing shared library" and came up with these results which guided me to this solution:

Here's proof that it works:
Astounding work. Thank you so much!
Did you get it to work on your device?
Reinstalling Phoenix and testing today...
Edit: worked like a charm! Also discovered that it would work using the "nodpi" version of G+
It won't recognize that the device is compatible to install it through the Play Store, but it will allow manual installation from APKMirror ^.^
You are a gawd walking amongst mere mortals, good sir.

Thanks for the findings And yeah, initially you have to install it manually, but after you restart your device, you will be able to update it from the Play Store to the new version. And I'm just a regular human, like you and anybody else that's on these forums

And humble to boot
Anyway, I'll keep testing, but I suspect several failed installs are due to this same reason... we shall see.

Cool, hopefully everything works out for you What failed installs did you mention?
At this point I don't recall specifically which others didn't install, but I'll keep you posted if I run into any more.

Sounds good. If I have to, I will also try to experiment modifying the model number in build.prop and see what benefits that will bring. Also, I read online somewhere that installing an older version of Google+ might work without having to copy those two files into /system. I might experiment it if the time is right

Give it a try and see if it lets Instagram install. The worst that can happen is you will be able to install Google+
@meanhacker have you tried any newer gms versions to see if they allow syncing for more apps? I suspect that it's locked down by the devs due to China's restrictions.

I think I did, but it keeps saying that there was an error parsing the package... I will test out more. What about you?
