Ok, so I installed a font using
root tools, and now I wanna undo it so I can install the new roboto font from ICS. I flashed the roboto zip thinking that it would write over the root tools font install, but it didn't. Does anyone know how to undo the font from root tools?

If you have adb installed, you can use adb to install the fonts:
1. Unzip the font zip file, you should find 3 ttf files in system/fonts directory.
2. adb remount
3: adb push Clockopia.ttf /system/fonts/Clockopia.ttf
4: adb push DroidSans.ttf /system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf
5: adb push DroidSans-Bold.ttf /system/fonts/DroidSans-Bold.ttf
6: adb reboot
If you want to backup your existing font files, do a pull before the push.
Hope it helps.

Thanks, I tried that, but it didn't work. And font installer is made by the same guy that makes root tools, and I believe that both of those programs change that default font directory somehow, because overwriting the font files did nothing. I ended up just re flashing my rom, and that did the trick.

Go to recovery, mount system and then push them via adb. They should work.

u cud plz post that adb push command with all its parameters(if needed - something) .one more thing i have both the apk and the odex from original STock Firmware do i need to push these both or just apk is fine??
Isn't the ROM deodexed ? You should get the apps deodexed before pushing them.
You could give a try and push them both, but I think you'll be ending with a FC.
When you are in recovery mode:
1. Go to Mounts and then click on mount system.
2. With ADB while in recovery mode type:
adb push file.apk /system/app/file.apk (replace file.apk with your app, ex: browser.apk)
Didnt work! All it does it to copy the file there's a difference in date of creation of file mayb thats the reason

I did so with devoid. I took the apps from delta package and I've pushed them through recovery.
Trying to pull all of my system/app directory to my pc what's the proper command to.get all at once.

Code:
adb pull /system/app/
That will pull all of the apk files from /system/app and place them in your current directory. If you want to direct them somewhere else, here's an example:
Code:
#Windows
adb pull /system/app/ c:\android\apps\
#Linux & Mac
adb pull /system/app ~/Downloads/apps/
Thank u I'm on tapatalk or I would hit the button.

Does moving installed apps require root???

Ofcourse you need rooted phone..
Only rooted phone can mount system and data partition as READ-WRITE
#Windows
This is for full system folder
adb pull /system c:\android\system (blue colour to create folder on desktop)
This is for full data folder (which include all installed apps and your personal data too)
adb pull /data c:\android\data (blue colour to create folder on desktop)
Etc....

you need is adb and command prompt
adb remount
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
optional ones
adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb shell chown 0 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb shell chgrp 0 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Just reflash the rom from recovery!
Without wiping data!

well I'm with Amit here. You must have the original ROM's flashable zip file you were currently using?
Simply extract it. Get to PATH_TO_CURRENT_LOCATION\system\framework\framework-res.apk after extracting it. Get the file and push it via adb. Easy as 123.
Reflashing again restores all the system files...? Happened with me... N I use to flash again! Lol Never tried Amits Method

!!!! if that the case, just reflash ur rom as stated by pvrx. SOLVED!
So I flashed the wrong .zip and now SystemUI.apk is force-closing. Rather than reflash the ROM I'm just going to replace SystemUI.apk using adb (I happen to have the ROM unzipped on my laptop), but want to make sure I have the procedure right.
Reboot to recovery
Then
adb shell
su
rm system/app/SystemUI.apk
exit
And then to push the SystemUI.apk
just
adb push SystemUI.apk system/app/SystemUI.apk
reboot
Do I need to mount system as writable before all of this?
Yes I believe you do
You could put the system.apk into a flashable zip by itself and flash that tho
Less room for error

Now I'm wondering if the permissions will be all mucked up if I just push the file. Is there a way to set permissions in adb?
never mind, got it, chmod 644 system/app/SystemUI.apk
Worked too!

Adb remount will mount as rrw and you don't have to set permissions the folder already has it. You can also just use a root file explorer app to place it in their

Is there any method to install a modding zip, like SystemUI mod, via adb shell instead of CWM?
You can use tickle my android to push systemui.apk etc ...
Press the thanks button

"To use Tickle My Android, you will need:
- a rooted Android phone or tablet with USB Debugging enabled and ClockworkMod Recovery installed"
I haven't got CWM, and I don't want to install it to my company phone.
But my phone is rooted. May I install systemui.apk into /system/app and set permissions?
Does it work?
What is the update-binary file in modding zip /META-INF/com/google/android folder?
I can recognize the updater-script in the same directory which is describes the method of the install under CWM. But I don't know what update-binary does.
Update-binary is what provides the functions that updater-script calls. And yeah, you can adb push SystemUI.apk to sdcard, then mount system in adb shell, copy SystemUI.apk to /system and set permissions, then exit adb shell and do adb reboot. I'm not going to into more detail on this because it'll be redundant, as there are many guides on using adb.
