OK so I installed the latest CM6.1 Nightly and was able to backup and then restore both QuickOffice and Swype. NOTE: I am NOT providing any apks for backup purposes or if you somehow lost yours. These are merely directions for how to get Swype/QuickOffice off your phone and back on.
BACKUP:
(In a terminal w/ ADB)
Code:
adb pull /system/app/Swype.apk .
adb pull /system/app/Quickoffice.apk .
adb pull /system/lib/libSwypeCore.so .
After installing a custom ROM....
Code:
adb install Quickoffice.apk
adb push libSwypeCore.so /system/lib
adb install Swype.apk

I was wondering if it is possible to pull the Swype/QuickOffice .apk's from my G2 (currently stock ROM), flash a custom ROM (say, Desire Z or CM6), and then re-install those .apk's. I figure it will throw some kind of error (e.g., Swype will say it's not configured for my device) because of different ROMs but just thought I'd ask.
I know how to pull, push, and install apk's from ADB so I'm not asking for how to do it. Just if it is possible.

I would love to know this as well. If you figure it out would you mind PMing me the details on how to do it?
Once a more stable version of CM6 or some other ROM comes out, I'll be trying it myself. Just as a reference, the ADB commands for doing this are:
Code:
C:\>adb pull /system/app/Swype.apk
C:\>adb pull /system/app/Quickoffice.apk
then after installing a custom ROM...
Code:
C:\>adb install Swype.apk
C:\>adb install Quickoffice.apk
I was able to use ES File Explorer and press menu>manager>app manager> then long press the Quick office app to back it up to the SD card, still trying to find the Swype apk though, going to do some digging with SUFBS (another file manager) and see if I can't get a hold of the Swype apk
This would be pretty awesome once we figure this out. Using Swype is the main reason why I'm still on the stock ROM. I tried out Sense and if it can come with Swype, I'll be one happy camper.
Did anyone try the above poster's method on pulling the apk?

Quickoffice will work, but Swype will not. Swype has some libraries that you have to copy as well. Beyond that, I've not tested it. Find those Swype specific libs in the stock ROM and copy them as well, and maybe you might be ok.
Any chances you guys can send me the original Swype.apk that pre-installed on the G2? I stupidly deleted it off while doing Titanium things. Thanks.
See the post above from Dyndragon. I don't know what specific libs also go with Swype so the apk alone won't be enough.

This is working fine for me on the CM 12 nightly. I used the same steps as you so try it with that?
Is there a way to get these files from a backup without having to back up the CM rom and then restore the stock, grab the stuff, and then go back to cm rom?

No worries. Ill restore the backup, grab it, and go back to cm once the RC comes out. I noticed the google apps are also missing and I know cm can't provide those so I'm sure there is a backup procedure for them.

Hey guys, I was able to back everything up and while I was able to install the swype apk, whenever I go to copy the libswypecore.so file I have issues. Both through adb and root explorer. Any ideas? I'm going to attempt to do it through an update.zip + clockwork recovery now

Ok, I got it, I'm not sure if everyone has to do this or if it was just an oddity for me but
A. For those that quickly jumped on the rom band wagon without thinking about backing up swype. You can just open any g2 stock rom as an archive and get the files from it.
B. This is what I had to do to install it.
Turn it from Read-Only to Read/Write
Code:
adb shell
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Then you have acess to the system folder to copy the swype lib file so...
Code:
adb install Quickoffice.apk
adb push libSwypeCore.so /system/lib
adb install Swype.apk
[/QUOTE]
Then close that access up
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
And your good to go.
REMEMBER SWYPE WILL NOT FUNCTION WITHOUT THAT LIB FILE!
If you are already on the custom rom and don't have the files, you can grab the files from the stock rom posted in this forum.

Just FYI, you don't need all the extra stuff when you're remounting /system, you can just say
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /system
It already knows where it's mounted from and what it is, neh?
Also, I have a Swype Beta login, so I wanted to install the newest beta, and before you can install with the Swype Installer, you have to delete /system/app/Swype.apk and /system/lib/libSwypeCore.so both before the new beta runs right (if you leave the library it just FCs as soon as you enable it).

I need to uninstall swype and reinstall it. Ive tried over writing it with the default apk but its not removing a theme I installed with metamorph. If I can uninstall it, a fresh install should fix it.
I just dont know how to remove it
I don't know if you want to go to this extreme, but I did. I fudged up the phone real good by removing and installing stuff. I finally got fed up and flashed it back to stock and applied root again. This time I'll keep my fingers out of it. I hated touchwiz in the beginning, but now it's kinda growing on me. I've never had an iphone but the home and drawer remind me of iphone wannabe. It's okay for now.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
There a tool over at sdx-developers that can remove that when root explorer can't. I forget the name of it. There's also a pay app in the market that I think is called root manager that can successfully remove crap too. I didn't have much luck putting the general swype 1.61 in. It refused to install. That's when I think I just flashed it back to factory image. A full reset/wipe wouldn't fix it either.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I had to do this a few days ago for similar reasons. This is what I did:
First, you have to open your browser or other app with a text field. Select the text field then long press the text field again and switch the input method to the stock android kb.
Next, you have to make sure /system is mounted as r/w. The early versions of the the rooting scripts did not remount correctly but the newer ones supposedly fix it. I just looked in the initial rooting .bat file (on the PC) for the remount command and used adb to remount /system.
You can test if it's remounted correctly by renaming Swype.apk to Swype.bak with Root Explorer then going up a level and back to /system/app. If it's not mounted correctly it will show as Swype.apk again. If it shows as Swype.bak still, then you just have to copy the original Swype.apk to /system/app and then switch input method back to Swype!

so i need to re-root?
I don't know what's causing it but root explorer doesn't seem to work properly on the phone (not sdcard) filesystem in the system app folder. It's stuck in rw mode. People have said different things why but I forgot. I did noobnl's latest flash and it's still not working right. His script is removing the old root and my phone doesn't have that on there. I don't know what to tell ya. Maybe I should look for another root file manager.

ls /system/app/S* (just to confirm Swype.apk is now Swype.bak)
cp /sdcard/download/Swype.apk /system/app/Swype.apk (or replace first argument with path of the good Swype.apk on your phone)
ls /system/app/S* (just to confirm Swype.apk and Swype.bak are both there)
reboot (reboots the phone, dunno if its really necessary)

Sorry if this has been mentioned before (I did search before posting), but there are a few widgets from the other Galaxy S phones that are rather nice, the weather clock in particular.

Download the firmware that has those widgets and pull the apks and install them on your firmware of choice
If anyone does this post it please, if you link a how to ill do it.
Well, i pulled the APK's out of the ROM, but I'm not able to install them. I'm really new at this, so forgive me for the ignorance. there are ODEX files that accompany the apks...do i have to do something with those on order to install the widgets?
you'll need to use adb shell once you copy the files to a location on your internal sd card
you'll need to mount system as r/w first so do this, so:
adb shell
su (your device needs to be awake and unlocked so you can verify the SU request)
mount -o remount rw /system
cp /sdcard/xxxx.odex /system/app
cp /sdcard/xxxx.apk /system/app
reboot
the reboot is just for good measure. i've used this technique to get apps onto the phone, but as usual YMMV. If you post up the apk and odex files as a zip i'll give them a shot.

OK... so I am trying to get the Internet up and running for this Samsung Epic. I almost have it down, but there is something that I know is wrong from the other Android phones that I have flashed before.
For Metropcs internet to work we have to install a script: u2nl and autostart file.
Here is my problem: I can put the autostart file into the data/opt folder, but when I try and paste the u2nls file into /system/bin it tells me that it is only a read only....
Now when I try in commond prompt and I try and do adb remount it now tells me No such file or directory or remount failed.
If I can get that u2nl file to stick in there I know I will be good to go.
I dont know much about adb commands, so here is what I did:
I plugged phone in on charge only mode. USB debug is checked.
cd c:\android\tools
adb remount **wont work either...it will fail, which probably why I cant write into the system/bin file.
adb push c:\autostart.sh /data/opt/autostart.sh
adb push c:\android\tools\u2nl /system/bin/u2nl **wont work
Adb shell
su
chmod 0755 /system/bin/u2nl **gives me an error
chmod 0755 /data/opt/autostart.sh
Please help!!!!!
Thanks.
I have one bad and one good news for you
First the good one...
Reboot into clockwork recovery and mount /system...retry

My MMS does not work since my Internet does not work.
There are people that have gotten this to work on Metro already with everything at my local metro shop in CA.
I am pretty sure once I get this u2nl file to stick, it will work. The 3G arrows starts up and then it seems like it will start to run the autostart script and then errors out.
Let me try what you said and I am also going to try another rom.
under clockwork recovery which mount do I do? mount /sd-ext
What is suppose to be mounted and unmounted?
it says: unmount /system **meaning its already mounted right?
if its says unmount /system..its already mounted
just go to cmd and
adb remount
adb push c:\android\tools\u2nl /system/bin/u2nl
ect..ect..
if the remount doesnt work..download busybox installer and update busybox to the latest version and retry
autostart\u2nl its not required to be able download\send mms..you need to have the right apn settings and the 3g arrows dancing lol,,
ok so when I hit adb remount it says "remount failed: No such file or directory
I downloaded the busybox, when I open it it says:
Busybox 1.17.1 is what I have in phone
Busybox 1.18.0 git (unofficial) I can download
Below that it says where do I want to install busybox:
/system/xbin/ or /sbin/
Where do I install and should I install that unofficial version?

hey did it work? how is it going with full flash?
also make sure you root with the new zip version..some previous versions dont have the remount scripts
adb commands
u2nl does not need to be run in /system/bin. just edit the autostart.sh to reflect your location change. if u insist on running from /system/bin, then do this
adb shell
su
mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
exit
exit
then push u2nl to /system/bin

make sure you reboot

AFAIK Titanium Backup doesn't backup the stock apps except the data. A quick but rude fix that you backup every 3rd party apps, then reflash the firmware.

Yup and yup.

Doesn't work either
in root explorer at the top you have the ability to change between r/o (read only) and r/w (read/write). try that
^ That came into my mind, since it whined exactly about that
Also, this might look stupid to some but try instead:
adb push swype.apk /system/app/
Guys...you will not be able to update swype if it comes preinstalled on your phone.
Reason: All the release by swype are beta and if it comes preinstalled, that is an official release and as per swype you cannot install or overwrite a beta over official
The only workaround is if someone can make a firmware after removing swype from it completely. Then only latest swype can be installed.

If you would've read my first post correctly, you'd know I just want the official swype that came with the ROM. Which, in theory, should work.

You can get them from Amazon's website. That's your best bet at this time.
really lost

Here you go, pulled straight from the latest update...
It's just the files you requested, the file structure should be correct.

Your need to get the device to be picked up by ADB and then push the files if your not able to boot into the actual system itself. Your have to ask someone else for the commands... but here's a snippet for services.odex the rest the files should be similar pieces of commands.
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 777 /system/framework
exit
exit
adb push services.odex /system/framework
adb reboot
step in the right direction

well hey this is a step in the right direction but all I need now Is to gain read write acess to /system and system/app abd I should bea able to push the old files back...my problem lies in the fact that es explorer tried to update and it messed up so I went to remove and just install the new version at the same time I was following the directions to put play market on the dev so now I can download and I have no file explorer
or if anyone know how I can push and execute an apk to the kindle I would be happy
thanks in advance

I was having the same problem as you are and was able to fix it by doing the following.
Download and extract the files NighthawkXL has provided.
From within the folder that you saved the files run command and do the following
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 777 /system/framework
exit
exit
adb push services.odex /system/framework
adb push DownloadProvider.odex /system/framework
adb push DownloadProviderUi.odex /system/framework
exit
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 777 /system/app
exit
exit
adb push DownloadProvider.apk /system/app
adb push DownloadProviderUi.apk /system/app
adb reboot
I think this will solve your problem with the downloads not working. Please keep in mind I have small amount of knowledge when it comes to rooting, but figured that it couldn't do more damage to it since it wasn't working.

https://s3.amazonaws.com/kindle-fire-updates/update-kindle-11.3.1.0_user_310084920.bin
Just downloaded .bin gonna check this out also. I didn't brick mine its usable but I screwed it up trying to take things off to get more memory and easier on battery. Runs ok now but I took off the system keyboard thinking the android keyboard file would be it the asop or whatever. So had to add Google keyboard which is better and the main navigation is gone with the back and menu key. ROFL. Using all in one gestures and omega status bar as a rig lmao.
adb install package.apk works fine after adb start-server with linux.
Theres app in 1 mobile market for moving .apk to /system/app folder.
