Hi,
Ive got a problem. Yesterday i did the update from Dude 1.1 to 1.2, first without wiping, but then the G1 reboot when i want to download an app.
So i wiped it and it works fine. INternal Memory is 355MB free.
Today i wanna delete the APP SMS/MMS because i use chompSMS, but the G1 says that it cant delete. ("Uninstall not successful" "SMS/MMS could not be uninstalled")
So what could i do?
Thanx for ya help
if im not wrong in saying this, the stock sms mms program needs to be on the phone. chomp doesnt get your messages
it gets them from the stock messaging app.
Not sure what you're trying to uninstall (haven't heard of an app called SMS/MMS). However, if you're trying to remove the application "Messaging", you can't. Just disable notifications in the Messaging program and use chomp as the default.
Its the same with this Amazon Mp3 app, i cant uninstall it, what do i wrong? Or how can i get this app off my phone( dude 1.2 full)
You can't uninstall those programs..

If you are using a G1 build, its in /system/app. Remount the system partition and delete it from that directory.
Yeah great, thanx for ya help.
But now I now i'll gonna be beaten for that question, but can you explain me what you mean with 'remount the system partition"?
I've looked it up with ASTRO Filemanager and its really in /system/app, but i cant delete it from there, if i want to it says again "error deleting file".
Just searched a bit around and found the remount command that i know from a2sd, so i think i have to go to Terminal at G1,
#su
#mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
#rm com.amazon.mp3 /system/app
Is this right? So then i'm gonna eating my shoes But i think it isnt so i ask you before i delete complete G1
Or is it enough to remount with that command above and then go with ASTRO FIlemanager to that directory and delete it?

Yes, you remount it that way (or with DroidSans) and rm the Amazon file. I would still recommend against deleting the messaging one though.
I tried it this way, but it says error "Read only file".
I think i just let it on the phone and try to ignore that app.

use this code to remove amazon
Code:
su
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
rm -r /system/app/com.amazon.mp3
that will remove amazon but removing messaging will make your system EXTREMELY unstable and most likely unusable
The problem was that i don't add the Fileending ".apk"
Thanx for ya help, tubaking182. It worked with your Command with adding .apk
Got the next problem, now i want to delete the Messenger App 'IM' but even if i do the same with 'amazon mp3' it says rm: cannot remove '/system/app/com.android.im.apk': No such file or directory
So what i am doing wrong, i tried it with "rm -r /system/app/com.android.im.apk"
"rm -r /system/app/com.android.im"
And many more but i get ever the same output -> No such file...
That means theres no such file...doesn't exist.
IT might be named IM.apk
Mh you're right!
I dont know how it tells me 'com.android.im' in ASTRO Filebrowser, and why i could delete it with IM.apk
With AmazonMP3 i have also to write: com.amazon.mp3.apk
Doesn't matter, THANK YOU for the fast help
amazon
spend a couple bucks and get root explorer, it is well worth it, and then its very easy to delete anything after that.
Wait wait let me get this right ... with root explorer i could avoid the whole going to terminal and typing all that code and just simply delete the apk from root explorer program and thats it >?
Can it really be that easy ... tell me thats the case
Also when you use the terminal code or the root explorer method ( if it can be done like that) when you go to applications in the phone menu to view list of apps you still see the amazon mp3 app in the system .. how do i remove that also

You need to use something like Root Explorer to do that.

btw i try to run desktop virtualizer and also this program said that she dont have the right permission do to so. :<
thanks for your's help , mate ! :]
Do you have SDK installed? If so, just open up a command prompt and use:
Code:
adb shell
mount -o rw,remount /system
rm *insert path to specific file you want to remove*
Ctrl+C
exit

with this way , can i grand permission for application? like desktop virtualizer?
(when i run it, it's said "not have right permission")
if yes , how?
Right now I'm fully unlocked/rooted, but I'm wondering how any of you might have been able to successfully remove/uninstall stock apps? Obviously if this was on my N1 I'd just use TB, but as I'm sure others have found TB is currently unable to detect the apps (unless someone has gotten it to work??).
Thanks, hope someone has a suggestion!
I was able to uninstall them using Better Terminal Emulator. The code is pretty simple:
su
cd /system/app
mv Cordy.apk Cordy.apkb
mv DungeonDefenders.apk DungeonDefenders.apkb
exit
exit
This only changes the file type so the don't show up. If you want true uninstall (irreversible) use:
su
cd /system/app
rm Cordy.apk
rm DungeonDefenders.apk
exit
exit
If you want to know file names in the system apps folder, use:
cd /system/app
ls

Ok, just tried this with another terminal emulator, but after entering "/system/app" I get "permission denied". Though it did show that I had superuser permissions after entering su.
I use root explorer. You just click mount r/w and delete or rename or move just like on your computer

[Updated 9/11] Bloadware Freeze List
Instead of deleting it just freeze it. If you want it without all the bloatware just flash a rom.

To install on Froyo XWJS8:
-Replace your framework with one attached here.
-Reboot
I tested it overs 2 days, no crash, no FC.

Updated with stock Gingerbread icons for
- Data G/3G/H

Enjoy,

Eric,
looks great. I'd love to install this but can't see an attached file...
The upload took a long from sri lanka.
The framework is attached now.
Eric.
Thanks Eric - this worked a treat.
But how can I replace the file? I tried before but I could not...

At just a guess you should be able to use Root Explorer instead of ADB
This mod makes a few things black, eg the email message list, and bootup before the wallpaper loads, but looks ok, thanks.

adb push is very easy to handle:
adb push <local dir> <remote dir>
so first thing you put the framework-res.apk into the folder
where your adb.exe is located. then navigate to that folder
using the console (cmd).
then just type this:
Code:
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
this will replace it in a very quick way. be sure to make a backup
of your old framework-res.apk in case you might need it again later ;-)

I use battery icon mod to change framework.res needs root
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
i found this with adb shell:
#busybox mount -o remount,rw /system (or mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system if there's no busybox)
#rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
#cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
#chown root.root /system/framework/framework-res.apk
#chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
#reboot
but when i try to copy the file with adb it says there is not enough space, is it bigger than the froyo framework-res.apk?
Are you using lagfix, with what pit file have u flashed?
I think the battery image is changed, how about the 3G mark "H"?
XXJV1 has different "H" mark as i saw it before.

Thats the Point, the Images for "H" and "3G" weren't in the Framework.res.
That are just the old images form Froyo.
Hi Chikess, ttsunny,
You are right.
I noticed that and i made an update.
I uploaded the new version with a screen capture .
You can re-download the framework from post #1.
By the way:
Anyone tried the modded browser that I published on the previous post ?
Eric,
In Sri Lanka.
I used this:
su
mount -o rw, remount/system ENTER
rm -r/system/app/maps.apk ENTER
but then it writes that -r failed, no such application found. Can anybody help me
what is it S-OFF and how to do it? I want remove factory aplication out of my HTC Click and terminal.apk writes me read-only system or something like this. Any help? Somebody adviced me that I must change S-ON to S-OFF
I think the -r should take a space before writing the directory location, that's why the directory does not exist. Type rm -r /system/app/maps.apk or just navigate into the directory like cd /system/app/ and then rm -r maps.apk.
Answering your S-OFF question, if you are rooted, and already have a custom rom I can't see the need to do that. Stay away from SPL and Radios updates if you don't know what you are doing. You can brick your phone.
Post your results.
if I do HBoot holding END+VOLUME DOWN button, there is on the top of the creen written S-on
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
rm -f /system/app/<apk name>.apk
pm uninstall <package name>
where is written package name? Thanks
in data/data have the package.You have to look which corresponds to the application you want to uninstall.Be careful what you uninstall, make a backup before.
Type cd /system/app/ and then l or ls to list the content. Select the apk name and paste on the remove command
Just install RootExplorer on your phone... Go to System/app/ and find Maps.apk that u wanna delete. Make sure it is in "Mount R/W" mode(The white button on top). Then press and hold the Maps.apk and click delete. You don't even need adb...

With these explanations you have given only get you delete the application, and leave the data of the application and consumes space,you could also delete with rootexplorer searching for the package in data/data.Uninstall applications from system in the phone is best titanium backup.and here we were not talking about adb ...talk phone terminal.
Titanium backup can uninstall system app
Thank you for ur post, it helped me o lot.
