Anyone know how to delete titanium backup if it was included with the rom? Other root uninstallers don't seem to do the job.
Why do you want to uninstall? It is proly the most useful app available
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
You have two options here.
1. Use it. Probably the most useful app. Maybe tied with Rom Manager
2. Ignore it for now. Then use it when you realize you'll need to.
So i submit...no way to uninstall this app? I want the newest version, but it crashes when attempting to update fm market, so i wish to start anew. Thanks
have you tried settings > apps > manage apps > tibu > uninstall
While the rom is on your computer use 7zip or winrar to access the archive and remove titanium apk from system/apps. Then flash the rom like any other rom.

So for whatever reason...it states uninstall unsuccessful. Ok, will try last suggestion or will just re-install Rom. Thanks.

Just right click the rom and click explore from your pc and remove the titanium apk from the system/apps folder. Then flash. I'm not sure if you have to wipe. I would.

Have you tried clearing the cache before trying to update it?

search "stock apps" in the development forum, this provide most apps like calendar
simply unzip the palckage, find the apk, and put back in /system/app

Download a root explorer app like "Root Explorer" (obviously) or File Expert, go to the system/app folder and give it write permissions (there would be options for that). After that you can copy to that folder. After copying, reboot.

I froze some apps from the recommended list, and I assume I might have selected something I wasnt supposed to.

freezing apps that you dont know what they do is a very easy way to get a bootloop
you can use the system dump to fix it if you know how to use adb a bd push the apps you froze
alternatively
if you can get the phone to connect to your computer you can use adb shell to unfreeze you frozen apps with the following commands
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
su
cd /system/app
ls
//look at what apps have .fro extensions added
rn appname.apk.fro appname.apk
//repeat
that will fix it
Contacts FC fix?
So I screwed up and deleted the yahoo files instead of freeze them on titanium...getting the dreaded contacts force close issue. How can I use this system dump to restore those deleted files? Can I install the apk's through something like astro? Sorry, total noob apparently....had no idea yahoo would have anything to do with contacts..oh well. Thanks.

system dump
So is it as easy as doing a copy all from the system/app folder from the dump onto the razr's system/app folder using a file manager like astro?

not at all. be my guest if you want to try. A. i dont think that astro can access the root folder last time i tried, might have changed since, you would need to use a file manager that can access, mount rw/ro, and change permissions of the system files and/or folders in the root.
B. i tried it already and everytime you try to reinstall the system apps through a file manager it says installation failed.
You have to put all the system apps in the folder AND set the right permissions

So I've tried using File Expert, with Root Exploer, but apparently I'm having some issues when I try to Mount as Read/Write. Also can't seem to use it to change permissions. Anyone have any other apps that will give me access to the permissions?

Well, it appears that if you were like me and deleted one of those applications, you're SOL. I've diligently went through the system dump provided, and added all the items I was missing into my /system/app, changed all the permissions to the correct ones, reboot..and still nothing. Even did a full system wipe/factory reset afterwards to no avail. I know this method worked with other phones, but apparently, the RAZR kernal doesn't allow for it. It seems the only solution would be if a SBF was created that can fully restore the phone to factory install...fingers crossed! So what can we take away from this...don't be an idiot like me and delete apps...just freeze them. I think I must be the only one who screwed that up...=/

On a side no...."Go Contacts EX" is my temp solution.
Thanks for the system dump ... i check the bootintro ... i don't like the rogers ... ( rogers branded ... )
Sorry!
The application Accounts (process com.motorola.setup) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
The following error appears once i press "Done adding accounts".
I have already done data wipe. it still appears.
What should i do?

Try Home+Vol Down+Power to enter into Recovery>Install GApps.
no need to flash the entire gapps on your case
download the latest google play apk in the themes and apps section of optimus one
search ES file manager/explorer (forgot exact name) apk on google from your pc (legit because the app itself is free)
now move the two apks to ur phone with usb
DONT INSTALL GOOGLE PLAY
install es file manager
open root mode something like that and grant the app root permission
now copy and paste ur google play apk to /system/app
AND LONG PRESS IT, CHANGE PERMISSIONS to rw-r--r-- (as same as all other system apps in the same folder)
save permissions
reboot ur phone at this point
bam!! google play is now back there in ur app drawer
becareful next time and do backups before touching red buttons in TB next time, mate

Thank you so much Miasmic.
1. for getting my query resolved with detailed explanation
2. For getting me introduced to ES file explorer. Ive been diving into its utilities since then.
Update: For anyone trying out this solution, you shall find the option to give root permission to ES under ES settings, also make /system as mount to write.

Why can't you just do this?
1. Download Gapps from goo.im/gapps/.
2. Put the .zip on your SD Card.
3. Boot into recovery and clear your cache and Dalvik cache.
4. Flash the Gapps .zip and reboot.
And you're done.

Do you use link2sd or app2sd?? There is no other reason your system apps will disappear because
of changing card. First you check the permissions again.
If they are all ok and still doesnt work.. then download any gb gapps.. unzip it in your pc.
You will find two files.. MarketUpdater.apk and Vending.apk.. place it in same folder system/
app. Same permissions for both.. not sure if this works on Stock gb.
And we dont know what all files you are missing.
ok.thanks a lot now its all back.
thanks guys

Your tablet needs to be rooted to remove system apps. After that you should be able to use Titanium backup or any root explorer to remove the app.

On a lighter note, I hate how my name has been "censored"

Interesting... Are you running a custom ROM, or stock? Second, when using Root Explorer, did you make sure to hit the itty bitty "Mount R/W" button at the top of the file list? Third, have you tried "freezing" the app with Titanium Backup instead of deleting, sometimes that works. Otherwise, you may have to try ADB to remove or rename the apk, or see if someone has a flashable zip for the custom maps apk you need.
hi
i can't install titanium backup, i have had it install before, but know when i try to install it it says " not enough storage" but i can install all other apps
means u dont have enough space on phone..either delete some apps or use apps2sd to mov apps to sd card
But the wierd thing is that I have enough space, can install other apparently, and have around 500 mb left

Well are you rooted? You need root, and to turn on root access in the settings of ES file explorer before you can access /data/app.
/data/app is not actually in either the internal sd partition or the external sd.

You need to be rooted, of course. When you open ES Explorer, press the Back button once. That'll take you to your root directory, where the system/data/app folder resides

To fix it, you need to remove the patch installed by Lucky Patcher.
Open Lucky Patcher. Press menu button and hit Troubleshooting, then
Uninstall Patches. This will remove all patches that were installed by
Lucky Patcher for all apps.
Now, go to Troubleshooting again, and hit Clear Dalvik Cache and
Reboot.
Now, install Titanium Backup.
Note that you have to reapply patches for all apps you had previously
patched.
