Hi, I was removing the bloatware from my rooted P500 when I accidentally deleted the DeskClock.apk and DeskClock.odex files. I really want that application back. How do I install it again? I tried installing a few other versions, but I refused to install. Can somebody please send me those two files? Will it work if I just copy the app into /system/app/ ??
Thanks

It should. If you aren't using a stock ROM it should be easy, but the .odex files will probably cause some trouble if the ROM is odexed.

(Obviously one way is to read the thread that I got it from..)
But I'm just curious as to how I can tell while I'm on a random Rom.

In the system/app folder, if a ROM is odex, you will see that some apps will have a .apk and also a .odex while deodex ROMs will only have the .apk files.
Thanks Punjabi mundiya.
Appreciate it.
So I am running Virus' NV Rom, which is Sense 4.0. The only thing I don't like is that HTC Friend Stream does not work with Facebook and Twitter. I was running Newt's One S 4.0 Port and Friend Stream and the widget work fine. I pulled the apks for Newt's ROM, but they are odex and need to be deodexed in order for them to work on Virus' ROM. I've been reading on how to do it, and what tools to read, but I can't seem to find the right tool. Would anyone familiar with deodexing care to deodex these files I've attached for me. I would greatly appreciate it! It is the FriendStream.apk and it's .odex and HTCFriendStream3Dwidget and it's .odex. Is that all that is needed to do this?
Thanks!
BUMP!
Anyone give some help or advice?
Nobody with deodex experience can help me out? Please? I'll be your BFF!

When I deleted the .odex file and replaced the apk in the /sys/app folder it would not even who up. I think from what I read you have to merge the odex with apk and it requires an apk tool, but I can't find the right one that will work.
Did you change the permissions after you moved it?

hi, my question is , if i put any.apk in the system/app folder and then i flash the rom via cwm so that apk in question will be ass an system application??? i'll not have to install it each time i flash a new rom????

It might be deleted by updater-script. Better solution is to copy your .apk to /data/app.

For example if I grabbed a camera.apk and want to install it on to a odex rom how would I do that? Because in odex it has two files, apk and odex file. Would I have to delete the apk and odex file first in system/apps and then install the camera.apk(drag drop) or what? Yes I'm confused That's what I did, but now I only have the camera.apk alone, no odex file..?? Please explain this to me.
U need the odex file. Ask whoever you got the camera apk from if they have an odex version.

Hmmm. It's not hard to flash the firmware again. Backup your apps with titanium backup. Reflash clean firmware and root it. Restore your files again. Then you should be having the My Files application.

Use root explorer. Copy both files in system/app. Paste there. Then search for the files and set correct permission. I just did that. And it worked fine once you reboot the device.
