someone told me, is should post here
hej
i killed the live wallpaper files a long time ago.
now i like to test the weather pro live wp.
can someone tell me, which files i need?
(i can´t simpy install the live wallpaper picker. the system always shows: "app not installed")
Use root file browser to push to system/app and set permissions
i gave all permissions to the apk in the system.
"app not installed" after the installation-prozedure
Have you got the right app for your Rom?
i took the original
secLiveWallpapersPicker.apk
4.1.2 on s3
which i saved before i killed them
And are you still on that same version of jb?
i didn`t change anything till this time

did you reboot your phone after changing the permission ?
the permissions were already there
do i copy it into the system?
or install it from another place?
You just put it in /system/app

You do not install it from there, or from anywhere else. You just put it there, check permissions and reboot. Done.
thats the way i tried it
there is a *.odex datei.
do i have to copy it back too?
what about the "special" permissions?
Is your ROM odexed or de-odexed?
i never did something this way.
its the original 4.1.2 without branding.
flashed with odin.
rooted

It's odexed then, so yes you will also need the .odex from your donor rom
Sometimes it is just easier to flash a pre-rooted ROM version via recovery.
i still can´t use live wallpapers.
when i klick on my background -> background
then there is just
1) galerie
2) quick pic background
If you are on stock Rom, re-flash it with mobile Odin without wiping data
After copy try to clear cache and dalvik-cache in the recovery.

it still doesnt work.
if i flash again: will my confugurations be gone with the wind?
in my recovery is no option to wipe dalvuk.
titanium says there is nothing to clear,
so how can i wipe dalvik?
Dalvik wipe is in the advanced menu of CWM based recoveries.
However, your ROM is odexed so /system/apps don't have dalvik-cache anyway, so it wont help.
Flashing a de-odexed, pre-rooted ROM, if its a same version (4.1.2 etc) should not have any negative effect on your config

Made a mistake with "root un-installer" pro version needed to unfreeze re-install system apps etc. Pro version NOT compatible with SII!
Now my messaging reboots phone and I have no way to reinstall the missing system app.
Whats out there to install system apps?
Anything that gets a recommend?
I've tried a few different apps. nothing worked yet.
Android 2.3.4
Kernel 2.6.35.11
Lite'ning Rom V6.1 XXKH3
I can revert back to O2 defaults, but...
The only way to get back system apps back is re-install the firmware that contained them.What i would do is stay rooted and make a nand/titanium back-up of all that you have now on your current firmware.Re-install your the firmware you need to get back your missing apps and then flash back the version your on now.Re-install your back-ups and you will have everything you had before.

This is not true.
I see you are running lightning rom. locate the original rom zip find the app you are missing in system/app.
push the app to system/app on your phone or copy there with a root file manager change permissions to match, reboot, done.

What?
Like the above said just extract the system apps from the .tar file of the rom your on and use a root explorer to copy them to system /app folder. If your wanted you could always use this code: *2767*3855# in phone dialer. This will reset the phone to factory settings and reinstall the rom.

Not even in a tar mate straight up in the zip in system/app.
The *2767*3855# code will factory reset your phone but im pretty sure it wont reinstall the rom and not going to try it lol

In effect yes it rolls the firmware back to the last installed rom at the point it was last flashed .
In other words flash stock KDD 1-8-11 factory reset three weeks later reverts firmware to that exact point . Likewise if you flash a custom rom Factory restore reverts to that at point of install .

Hey guys I get "Android is Updating" "Optimizing Apps" Window on Every Boot, just for a Few Seconds, It didn't use to do this, has anyone experienced this, I'm Running Hydra-H2o ROM and Siyah Kernel?
UPDATE, SOLVED, Thanks to SoLoR1 for the "Fix"
SoLoR1 said:
I found out what caused this message for me... It was Titanium Backup odex file. So you can do two things, you can remove and then install again Titanium Backup or go in to /data/app and remove TB odex file and reboot phone....

Mine only does this when I install a new app to the /system directory and reboot. As you said it only lasts a few seconds, nothing to get worried about.
Chris.
Sounds like it's a boot animation.
OP, does the "Android is Upgrading" occur after the boot animation or as part of the boot animation? I doubt it is a boot animation as I have had it before, and it is standard, just not after every boot. Are you changing something in the /system/app directory or flashing a new mod? These would trigger an "Android is Upgrading" message.
Chris.
Some form of zip align/ optimise at boot
Check your roms specifications .
With 42 posts you can ask in the rom thread .

It could be your cache or delvik cache is being cleared. Do you have something like a cleanup cache program running.

Try to install ultimate kernel cleaning script before you flash the rom.

Thats what im talking about, when I wipe cache/delvik cache and when I reboot, the phone as to rebuild the delvik cache, hence andriod is upgrading. Never did it under gingerbread but i think its par of the course for ICS.

Tried it super script and flash new kernel, didn't work, will try when the new rom is out
Sent from my GT-I9100
It isn't the dalvik cache being rebuilt that causes the "Android is Upgrading" because I just wiped my davlik cache as a test, and just a longer boot animation. I see that Hydra H2O is also an AOKP based ROM, like HydrogenICS, so I don't know, depends on the build version. Anyway, nothing to get annoyed about either. Just post on the developer's thread and see if anyone else has the same problem. Also, it isn't kernel related because I use Siyah Kernel too.

I have same issue.... on every boot i get "Android is upgrading" window with Starting applications, i dont get any Optimizing applications, just Starting... for a sec or two... Didnt find the solution yet i also went and reflash same rom over with no success, only thing i didnt do is format /data partition since i cant be bothered to install all apps again....
edit: i found this since im runing stock XWLP9 with siyah krnel it might be it... however im sure i didnt have it few days ago...

Chris.
The thing is it didn't do it when it I did the clean install, it did it after the phone was completely set up...
Had a good think about this. Back in the days when we were all on gingerbread. We would install a new firmware and have to wait 10-20 mins for first boot," building the delvik cache, etc ". Prompting some noobs to think they were in a bootloop and pull the battery. ICS boots faster after first install," building aplication list, delvik cache, etc", can remember it stopping have way through to ask for data roaming to be enabled. After that, whenever we clear cache/delvik cache then reboot, it has to rebuild cache again. Only this time as a Andriod is upgrading message.

Dude you rock, I had a hunch it could be Ti but never did actually do anything I uninstalled it and installed it again worked like a charm

Just FYI : This can be caused by modified ODEX files (maybe you've used some sort of patcher to remove ads, etc...) Simply remove all the modified ODEX files and you're done.

Where do I find the ODEX files exactly?
I'm having the exact same problem - I get "Android is upgrading - starting applications" every time I boot my phone. I've got a Galaxy S I9000 running CM9 stable I haven't modified any ODEX files (not that I'm aware of). I just uninstalled Titanium Backup but I'm still getting the same message.
I tried to locate the ODEX files using ES File Explorer but I can't find them. More specifically, I can see all the .odex files for the system apps within the /system/apps folder (I don't think I should touch those though, right?) - but when I go to the /data/app folder to look for the user-installed apps, there are only .apk files in there and no .odex files at all. Are they kept somewhere else?
And if I do find where they are kept, then what? Should I just delete all of them? Is that safe?
Hello,
I wanted to install that MMS mod fix and now my SMS/MMS app is ****ed up, everytime I open it, it won't start and crashes right after. I'm running stock 4.1.1 DLIH. Does anyone have the stock SMS/MMS files that could fix it ?
Here's a link to the zip I've installed : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33367197&postcount=45
Thanks for your help.
Hi,
1. Have you uninstalled the apk mod?
2. Have you tried a full wipe?
3. In case nothing works, try to flash the stock rom again via odin
Cheers
Hey, thanks for your time.
1) How can I uninstall the APK (I'm noob in Android, I come from Windows Phone..) ?
2) If I do a wipe, will I lose everything ? And to proceed, do I have to enter CWM then "do a wipe/cache" ?
3) I'll do that if nothing can fix it.
Thanks for your help.

If you do a data wipe, you will lose everything. Let's try just the wipe cache and wipe dalvik, don't do the data wipe to preserve your apps and configs. If I doesn't work, try the data/cache/dalvik wipe. You are right, just enter on CWM to perform cache and dalvik wipe.
3) I'll do that if nothing can fix it.

Yes, lets hope for the best, maybe it wont be necessary. Good luck! If you need help on step 3, just say it.
Just checked and the APK isn't in the list. There is no way to have a *.zip with the stock files I could install to fix my problem ?

hum... Unfortunately I don't know the answer for this. You can try a search on xda forum and google.
I would try a search, if no success, I would try step 2 (wipe cache and dalvik) and if nothing works, step 3.
Good luck!

This mod is probably made for deodexed rom
You run a rooted stock rom which is probably odex
So:
-use root explorer (or similar app) and move secmms.odex file from /system/app to your SDcard (internal or external) as backup
-restart in CWM
-wipe cache
-wipe dalvik cache
-restart your phone
-check if you still have your issue

Check if the app is still in the app drawer.

After coming from stock I rooted and installed imperium, in it's aroma installer I choose to have nexus 5 walpapers, then after I reflashed stock rom via odin and rooted, then reflashed a custom rom in the path emulated/0/0/imperiun there are about 15nexus 5 walls, if I delete them after a restart they reappear, if I delete hem through my laptop after a reboot they are still there. I always do a ful whipe when installing a new rom, eaven when I update, but they are still there. Is there a way to get rig of them, or to format the emulated folder when I install a new rom?

Yes there is a way to totally format your whole phone (even the system folder). MegaWipe can do that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832326
Note: MegaWipe will delete your ROM from your phone as well, so you will need to download a ROM and place it in your external sd and after flashing MegaWipe, flash the ROM without rebooting the phone. Because there will be no system to load if you install no ROM.
This is one way to do that. I think there are other ways to do this also.
Thank you.

I use an LG Exceed 2 and like a month ago I went into superuser and deleted some android files which came with the system, I factory reset it and now it says "Unfortunately, LGSetupWizard has stopped." Is there a way I could recover those files at all? I went into Safe Mode and it said the same thing! Please help!
You will have to refresh the stock software.

You need to either reflash the system, or find TWRP flashable zip of your current OS, extract it and copy the items you deleted. Or you can try editing build.prop and change "ro.setupwizard.mode" value to "DISABLED". It might work after reboot

How would I do that?
maybe u deleted the setup files that we use after booting a new rom or killed the launcher.
Just copy the files u deleted by recovery or reflash ur built in rom.

do u have ur stock rom?
if yes..
Then..
1)extract your rom with any archiver software.
ex-winrar,zarchiver
for pc - winzip etc
(pro version recommended)
There's an app called setup wizard.
(it depends on your rom.
On samsung stock its samsung setup wizard, on cm its cyanogenmod setup wiz)
U will see something like that on your
rom/system/app or priv-app/here
copy that one to ur phone's root/system/app or priv-app
exactly where its located on ur stock rom.
(u need a root explorer software to put that in ur system)
Easiest way is find ur stock rom and flash it.
If u r new to this things,get help from somebody who knows.
