try adb shell if you can't remount, you may be able to issue mv commands with su

Serious unexplainable issue with my rom

Hey, i'll make this brief. Whenever I use an update
Or try and push an apk over to /system/apps
It doesn't stick.
For example I removed the browser.apk, and replaced it with my own (using root manager and adp both) rebooted my phone and I have no browser.apk anylonger cant put one in regardless of how I try...
Another example, while installing and update to HTC_IME.apk (Black theme) It sticks to the phone until i reboot it...
Any advice?
Do a search on the missing apk. Just to be sure.
Not much help huh?
Its like the missing apk completely disappeared... no traces of it.
on your phone try going to the superuser and there should be a + /system/sh push it and it should disappear then try the adb push method

If you were trying to push to /system/APPS That might be a problem. I don't know alot, but if I'm not mistaken, the correct directory for apps is /system/app/
Try this.
Code:
adb remount
adb push browser.apk /system/app/
Also, if you're using A2SD.. it would be /system/sd/app
Let me know if it worked.
Ok well, I checked for root access just to be sure, And of course, I have it lol..
But none of these methods work.
Edit: I mean ive done it before, I dont know what the hell is wrong...
Why not do a simple mount of the sdcard , no adb.
Then copy the file to the card. Use a rooted terminal emulator or even root explorer to copy/move it.
BTW I know that on some systems the ".foo" files ( beginning with a . ) can be invisible and on other systems they can be designated as temporary, I don't know the convention for linux/android.
I do know that I would push a file which has been disappearing and then do a ls -af xxxx on it in a rooted terminal emulator to see it's permissions and "real" name.
^Tried using a rooted file manager to move it..it simply doesnt show up in the tray and when i go back..it's gone like always.

So it's on the sdcard?
Use a terminal emulator and do a
$su
#ls -af filename.
Eh you know what, I'll just wipe and reflash a fresh rom. I'm not putting in anymore effort lol...
A mod can close this now.

Market is very slow after installing another rom

Hey friends!
I have a great problem.
After installing another rom, my market doesn't work properly.
I open the market and it's very slow. Everything I want to do takes a few seconds. Tapping on the downloads button, tapping on apps, downloading them... all slow.
Now I've figured some out:
Wipe everything
install another rom new
took another google account
market is fine
Then:
wiped
installed the rom new
took my first account
market is slow.......
Whats wrong with my account and how can I get it to work normal.
If I said slow, that isn't right. Right is sloooooow....
That's weird... lets see what others have to say...
Is it anything like this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=670407
I still haven't fixed mine yet, trying desperately to..
Yes, same problem.
Sh*t.
Market is still unusable for me.
But now I can see paid apps, but it's terrible slow.
Can someone put this threads together? I think, I#ve searched wrong yesterday.
Try pushing another market apk to your phone?
You're right, it solved the problem. Thanks!
I've deleted the Vending.apk in folder /system/apps
Then I've installed another Vending.apk with ADB
Copy the attached file to your AndroidSDK/tools folder on PC (delelte the .zip extension!)
Plug your Phone with USB to the PC
Open up the shell (cmd)
Navigate to your AndroidSDK/Tools/ folder
Type in:
adb remount
adb shell push Vending.apk /system/apps
adb reboot
After the reboot, everything is fine!

This helped me too but you have a few commands wrong.
Firstly, to remove just do:
adb remount
adb shell rm -f /system/app/Vending.apk
Then, to install the older version:
adb push Vending.apk /system/app/
adb shell reboot
I also did the removal line again with a lower case v as I seemed to have two vending.apks, this may just be something specific to my phone though as I was messing around a lot getting this working!
Bugger, still didn't work for me...
something weird.
wiped, reflashed cm 5.0.7-t2 and gapps epe54b.
right after adding my gmail account the market started to download all my paid apps again. that made the market that slow.
now wiped again and reflashed 5.0.7-t2 and gapps.
installed titanium backup.apk and restored all apps and settings.
for now the market (v1713) works as usual.
I've tried everything advised and my market is still s-l-o-w.
I have tried:
Clearing cache
Uninstalling updates
Reflashing Gapps
Formel's replacement Vending.apk
Think I'm gonna resort to a full wipe once CM5.0.7 is out...

on some phones it fixed itself.

x10a Baseband Version?

Solved. Thanks!
Anyone wanna help? -.-

So I did some modding (unfortunately) to the framework-res.apk file and it worked the first time and a few other times but then I changed something and now when I turn on the phone it freezes at the "Sony Ericsson" screen before the logo. What do I do?
I tried pushing the backup framework file but it says "failed to copy framework-res.apk to /sdcard/framework-res.apk: Permission denied
however, when I use adb devices, it does show my device as being attached.
So what can I do now?
Edit
I was also able to pull files...
Also tried manually putting the framework-res.apk in the sdcard and then using adb to copy it to the framework folder. Doesnt work. Saids that the directory cannot be open for read. I guess the device cant read the SD card until it boots up
Also, if you are replying, please stay on the thread. I will probably comment back ASAP

Hey... are you sure that you've got your phone rooted? I mean sure pulling files work irrespective if you are rooted or not, but in order to replace files under the /system filesystem you've gotta have root and remount it as read/write.
Happen to me too, for the exact same reason. I had to reformat the phone... I simply re-rooted the damn phone.
cp /system/bin/sh /system/bin/rootsh
chmod 6755 /system/bin/rootsh
Try using this script before trying to push your framework back on
Well it was rooted and I already flashed it and re rooted it. However, I have three questions
1) Should I update from the v24 to 26?
2) I have a x10a, after running step 3 my phone still says its an x10i with baseband version of 1.1.28
3) And those apps that were supposed to be installed in step 2 didnt go so well. I could install them manually with ADB right?

Managed to delete my framework-res.apk

And now my tab only does a boot loop. I cant copy the stock one back over with ADB keeps giving me permission denied. I've tried everything. Any ideas? The only thing done to my tab is the clubtech flashing method to make phone calls, and its rooted, but I cant get shell root
Help
Put it on an sdcard (I'm sure you have other android phones to mount it with, or use ADB if the tab has it mounted)
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
su
cp /sdcard/external_sd/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
reboot
That should do it. I assume in this that framework-res.apk is on the external SD card, and that the US tab mounts it in the same place. You could aslo use adb to push framework-res.apk to /data/framework-res.apk, and copy it from there.
My problem is that I wasn't getting root in the adb shell, managed to fix that and pushed the framework to the system booted just fine. Thanks man
Sent from the Galaxy Tab, that makes phone calls

Cant modify file?

I'm trying to replace one of the files in /system/usr/keylayout but i'm getting an error telling me the system is read only.
So i've gone back to the /system folder in Root Explorer and tried to remount it as rw but nothing happens.
So i've gone in and tried to use ADB. I turned on USB Debugging and connected with ADB, used "adb shell" to get in, then every variation of deleting the file and remounting the file system i can. Every method to delete the file tells me its read only, and every method to remount it tells me that the folder isnt in /proc/mounts. If i dont specify a folder and just use /, then it runs and shows a ton of folders, but i still cant delete the file. My goal is to replace it with another.
Any ideas why? I'm rooted with magisk, newest version of platform tools on the laptop, im running OOS 11.0.4.4 IN11AA, stock rom and kernel.
