need help!] I've been trying to pull out apks from i9000

[Guest pantherc]

hi

i've been trying to pull out some apks from my i9000 recently.

but there are some problems..

for example

i tried to get the unifiedinbox.apk (aka social hub) using 'adb pull' command and it was successful.

but i wasn't able to install it on my phone.

of course i gained root.

'Application not installed' message comes out when i install those apks.

can anyone give me an advice please?

thank you!

yes.. i see...

i could see .odex files before i flashed the rom.

but i flashed modaco custom rom and there isn't the .odex files. (i mean, in /system/app directory)

then how can this rom execute those apps?

sorry for nooby question.

thanks a lot!! :)

total processes are following

>> as you know, UnifiedInbox.apk is already in /system/app directory.

>> I pulled it out using 'adb pull /system/app/UnifiedInbox.apk' command.

>> then, I removed that app using

adb shell

su

rm /system/app/UnifiedInbox.apk

>> after that, i pushed it using 'adb push UnifiedInbox.apk /sdcard and disconnected the device from my pc.

>> then i tried to install that app and it says 'application not installed'

if i copy that .apk directly into the /system/app folder, it works.

it means my i9000 must be rooted to use this app, isn't it?

in fact, i was looking for the way how i can install these kind of apps without rooting. (just click-and-install way)

thank you for your reply.

thank you for your reply.

if u hv a stock system, this file is already there and you cannot remove it without rooting.. so to answer ur question, this app dont need to be rooted to use..
