Trying to pull all of my system/app directory to my pc what's the proper command to.get all at once.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
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....

So this is my issue.
I've not got a typical problem with how to edit the apk or what not, but my modified frameworks changes aren't taking effect on the device.
I've used AutoAPKTool to decompile, do my changes then compile and ADB to transfer the apk across to my System/Framework folder, but the changes aren't showing on the device, for instance if I change an image.
This is what I'm using to transfer via ADB,
"su
stop
cp /system/framework/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.old
cp /storage/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
sync
start"
I've tried doing a normal "adb push" function but each time I get "Permission Denied" dispite having SU privelages and yes I'm rooted. I've google every possible permission problem but no luck.
I'm using the Archos 70, I hope this is the right forum and I appreciate all help.
Regards.
Anyone please?
You have to put your updated image in the _custom_res folder with the correct folder structure.
HTH
Did you mount system as read/write before copying?

Hi,
I'm attempting to replace Email.apk on my miui rom. This is the method I am using:
Code:
adb push Email.apk /sdcard/
adb shell
su
rm /system/app/Email.apk
rm /system/app/Email.odex
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
cp /sdcard/Email.apk /system/app
reboot
When the phone has rebooted, my changes do not take affect. To check, I pulled the /system/app/Email.apk back, and found it to be the original version.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here?
Thanks,
Have figured this out...
adb appears to send some kind of cached version over. Renaming the file before transferring forced adb to use the correct file, and all is well.

You'll get lots of FCs until you reboot the phone then it should be fine.

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

Currently, if I want to add a new custom wallpaper. I make it on my PC using GIMP, save it, plug in my reZound, switch to disk drive, copy the file to my sd card, unplug my reZound, go to ES File explorer, navigate to ex_sd, copy the file, navigate to /system/customize/resources, paste the file, go to home, change wallpaper. Now, I can do all that faster than I can type out the steps, but is there someway to move the file straight from my PC to the /system/customize/resources folder?
Thanks

Just put them on your sd card in a folder called /media/images/ and you can apply them with the gallery

Or I think he can push with adb. I don't know the exact commands so if anyone can help with the commands...

Probably need to adb remount first. Here's my suggestion, make a batch file/script something like this:
echo off
adb wait-for-device
adb remount
adb push somdirectory/newwallpaper.png /system/customize/resource/

That works great. Thanks everyone. Now, what about the reverse? Is there a way to get the files (default wallpapers, apks, etc.) pushed to my computer? I tried running the same script and reversing the file and destination but that did not work.
Edit: Never mind, found it. adb pull
I haven't used adb commands since I was rooting my eris, thanks guys.
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!

There is, I can't remember the command off the top of my head

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
