It happens to me to at the first time, all you have to do is delete the files and paste them again.. xD if still didn't work, i'll post my files here so you can tried..

I have tried now, but it won't work. I would be glad if you posted your files :b

Have you set the right permissions for the files?
All files needs to be writeable. The easiest way to set the write permissions is to use root explorer.
Or if using terminal emulator: Chmod each file to: 777

After a lot of trying this worked for me:
1. Download xRecovery from here.
2. Copy three files to sdcard - xrecovery.tar, busybox, chargemon
3. Just in case, get Busybox from Market and install it.
4. Copy three files from sdcard to /system/bin - don't forget to mount system as r/w (you can do it with Root Explorer by simply clicking "mount r/w" button)
5. Chmod all three files to 777 - with Root Explorer, open context menu for file and select "Permissions" and make sure all 9 boxes are ticked. Or, use adb shell.
6. Turn off your phone normally.
7. Turn on and keep pressing back button, now you should enter xRecovery.

It is important to install xRecovery 0.1!!!
I have tried to install 0.3 first but it is not work on X8.
So use this only: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878426

If you read the whole thread, then you would know, that it is the same that blagus said. And as i said, i did all that he said.

Use this files.. If didn't work, I don't know what to say, can't understand your problem..

Now i got to know that i should download these same three files three times. again - it do not work.

Here did you pasted those files? Didn't you already having xrecovery running well, before you reflash your phone?

Now you get the story:
First of all, i tried in hours to get xRecovery work on my phone. Then succesfully, in some unknown way, i made it work.
Then i screwed up, and deleted the bin, so my phone wouldn't turn on.
Then i had to use SEUS to get my phone work, and I did that succesfully. But it was only 2.1 now.
Now i want 2.2 again, but can't make xRecovery work.

Weee it works now D I have no idea what I did diffrent this time, but it works now D thank you all for taking time, to help me ;b

And you're using 2.1 android, right? Is it rooted? If yes, all you have too do (and before that, delete the old files that you already pasted, except busybox..):
-put the files on your sdcard root;
-go to root explorer and to the sdcard folder;
- forget it busybox, just copy the other files;
- go to system/bin and then select the W/R option;
- then just paste them e restart your phone..
Then press a few times the back key, right after SE logo apears.. If you did't get anything, go again to the bin folder with root explorer and see if was created a folder with the xrecovery name.. If yes, just try again pressing back key until you get xrecovery menu..

you're going to need to mount the system first. I believe it's adb shell -> su -> then something. Can't remember now.

Replace 'hosts' file on Desire

Apologies if this has been discussed before, I have been researching this for a few days now and have tried every single method that has been advised but was unable to replace the hosts file from my Desire with a custom one. Seems the methods used for the Hero and other Android phones do not work on the Desire. Has anyone managed to replace the default 'hosts' file with a custom one?
My Desire IS rooted. I have tried the adb push method after deleting original file and remounting, I always get an error, something 'cannot allocate space' or similar. I have also tried using Root Explorer, again it says the file is too big. If I make the hosts file smaller by removing some data from it, it copies it, then the phone restarts itself and then when i check, the old hosts file is back (the original hosts file only has one entry for local host 127.0.0.1). I also tried editing the hosts file on the device using Root Explorer, I save, then the phone restarts and all the changes are lost. I seem to have tried all the possibilities and had no joy.
And before you ask, yes, I tried installing the AdFree app from the market, it doesn't seem to do anything, and sometimes it does restart my phone as well.
Any advice how to sort this out would be much appreciated.
are you doing all this in recovery mode?
Hello,
i have created a patched Adfree app for Desire
Adree now loads the hosts-file to
/sdcard/etc/hosts
i have removed /system/etc/hosts
and symlinked to /sdcard/etc/hosts
after the first start klick on "revert" and then on "Update & Install Hosts"
after that you can edit the Hosts file in /sdcard/etc/hosts and it will be used by android system
all files attached
(start in recovery using recovery script,
after that run the install script - STEP1 inside,
reboot into System
run install Script - STEP2)
please tell me if it wont work for you

But i have some bug: get java.io.EOFExecepion error when i try to update.

where is the problem? I have just pushed my custom hosts file to /system/etc in recovery and it works without any problems.
Just mount /system in the root recovery and push it...

i had this error 2 times,
after pressing "revert" the error is gone
--edit--
seems to be a random error.
but after "revert" it works
@ aslocum
the problem is, that you cant update the file if the system is running. but if u symlink it, it is possible
How many times do you update the hosts file? The hosts from the thread I linked is really good and optimized. better the the adfree one.i do not need to update it till we get full write access...
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
you are right, it is not necessary to update the hosts-file all the time,
but i like it to add / replace the file even when im not near to a PC.
i thought it is a solution, and i want to share it with all the others.
No offense to you sometimes im also in the mood just to make something work and others wont understand why
Most times its also fun to make things work

Hey kingchris,
Thanks for your efforts in creating the patched version. I have installed your apk, put the hosts file on the sdcard in /etc folder. Ran the app, clicked revert, it said Success, then Download and install Hosts, it went ok, now it says 'No need to update, your system already has the latest version. I click ok, but it doesn't seem to block any ads. Not sure what to do. Does the app have to be running in the background to work?
Trying to run the install script I got the following:
C:\adfreepatched>install-adfree-windows-step1.bat

Sorry for being such an ignorant
i have created a new version of the fiel with a step1 and step2 batch
boot into recovery.
run recovery-windows.bat
run install-adfree-windows-step1.bat
reboot into your normal system
install-adfree-windows-step2.bat
then start adfree
if you get the Error Message try it again.
i think this is not an error created by the modification,
this is a problem on checking and downloading the hosts file
i made an error in the first script
in the script i wrote adb mount but it has to be adb shell mount
Uninstalled the program, deleted the /etc/hosts from my sdcard and started all over. If i boot into recovery mode and I get to the green recovery screen, I can no longer type any commands from the terminal window. If I reboot into Android, I run the two install commands and here are the results:
C:\adfreepatched2>install-adfree-windows-step1.bat

812 KB/s (39004 bytes in 0.046s)
pkg: /data/local/tmp/signed-Adfree_patched.apk
Success
The program is installed on my phone, it says Update found, i press ok, then click on Revert, all it does is it restarts my phone. Here, I went and replaced the 1KB hosts file from /sdcard/etc/ with the one in your folder, then when I clicked Revert, it said Success! Your hosts file has been restored. I then clicked Download & install hosts, and it said Success! your Android device should now be AdFree, however you might need to reboot to clear your cache. I rebooted the device. Ran AdFree again and it says your good to go! No need to update, your system already has the latest version.
So I guess it should now be working?
I installed a few 'free' apps from the market to see if I get the adds, and sure they are there.
For some reason, I still think it is using the /system/etc/hosts version instead of the version on the sdcard.

you have to open a second Command,if you are in the green recovery console
and run the step1.bat there
if you type after you have done all the steps
cd system
cd etc
ls -al *host*
you should see something like
lrwxrwxrwx 1 0 0 17 May 13 04:43 hosts -> /sdcard/etc/hosts
then its rights
I got that, thanks, but please read the second part of my last message and tell me do you think that is ok? I have installed Adfree, it says it is up to date, but it is still not blocking ads, apparently.
sould be right now
That's what I thought, but is there another way to tes apart from running apps that use adds? I tried by putting a few sites taken from the hosts file into the browser, and it opens all of them I have a customised hosts file on my pc as well, and it works like a charm.
then use your customized one. idk if the files from adfree uptodate. but i can say it will work
Finally Adfree working

Thanks a lot man, seems to be working ok now, I have had so much trouble getting this to work, finally working.
I have successfully updated adfree with your file. Thanks so much.
Sorry to ask a silly question...
because when I boot into the recovery mode, I can see several options available but I cannot choose them.
I hold volume down & power on, then I select "recovery" & press "power" again that means I choose this option then it goes into recovery mode, right? In the recovery mode, I cannot choose anything because if I press any button it simply turns off the monitor! What should I do??
(I take out the battery to complete the reboot........... There must be some other ways?)

Need help with this ADB stuff for Metropcs

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
Bad news...
That method or the anycut method does not work...I already spent 2 days trying so many settings and it just doesn't work.
Do u have mms working?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
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?

1.17.1 is fine
try again if that doesnt work..in clockwork recovery try this
adb shell

remount rw

exit
and try again..im running out of options here..lol
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
Thanks buddy it looks like it worked....
Now I have the data arrows showing but something is not kicking in yet. I think I am missing something. I changed all the right settings on Qpst have the right passwords now (msl - whiterabbit.org) all files in the right place.
I have done this on Eris full flash, evo full flash, incredible full flash, but this Epic is driving me nuts...
kinda stuck right now.
Lol and now we are 2 stuck in the same place. I had flash tons of droids, evos, but this epic is making me going nuts..I don't know what's going on either..I had seen epics on cricket full flashed with no problem..but seems samsungs don't like metropcs' proxy

i cant test this anymore cus i dont have metro but thanks to chimstar in the mo-fi forum, dial ##3282# go to edit mmsc url, type your msl, and edit the mmsc server to the metropcs one
if that doesnt work, download the apn back and restore app, delete all apns and restore metropcs working, if you dont have one, edit the xlm file to match all the correct info
make sure you reboot
see if that gets your mms working..i didnt need to have the autostart method running for my droid to get mms

[Q] droid x download permissions issue

so im stuck and can not figure this out. for some reason the permissions for the download folders on my sd card do not have any user permissions checked. i can not download anything at all but the market is fine as it is on the internal memory i suppose. the only reason i came across the user permissions issue was because i found another post where someone had the same problem with downloading and corrected the issue by using root explorer and manually adding user permissions to any folder he used for downloading. now... here is my problem... i used root explorer and when i try to add user permissions to these folders, the settings that changed do not stick. i check mark the 3 boxes and accept the changes but if i go back into that folders specific permissions, they are unchecked once again. how can i get it to not revert back or better yet how can i just resolve the issue in whole so i dont have to keep fixing folder permissions on the sd card for app that downloads? i dont see why the sd card of all places would start having these permission issues. the guys post i came across tried to tie this issue to the fix permissions option in rom manager saying it may have caused the problem but i didnt use rom manager to fix permissions until this problem started. i was on liberty 1.5 rom then reverted back to rooted stock where i still have the problem with all downloading except the market again. any help would be greatly appreciated!
58 views and not a single response? wow.... so very shocking to see that, i bet if i had post this in the dev forum i would have gotten 15+ responses just to say that im in the wrong section then anther 30 for people to argue back and fourth on how everyone is being rude or that this is the reason devs stay in irc...
Give this a try if you have the sdk and adb set up.
from a command prompt:
1) adb devices (make sure that your phone shows up)
2) adb shell
3) su (assuming you have rooted your phone)
4) cd /mnt/sdcard/download (or whatever the folder on your sdcard for downloads is called)
5) chmod 777 /mnt/sdcard/download (or whatever your download folder is called)
this should change the permissions on your sdcard to have full permissions.
thanks for your reply! im grateful, but wouldnt that only change the permissions for the "download" folder? which is mostly only a default location for apps such as the browser?
The way sysadmin-x is suggesting makes the permissions way different than they are by default, I wouldn't recommend doing it that way.
If you want to change permissions on the entire sd card to what they are by default, try running(as root)
Code:
chown -R system:sdcard_rw /mnt/sdcard && chmod -R 075 /mnt/sdcard
Edit: that code messes up the permissions on one folder, after running that you should also run
Code:
chown -R root:root /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure && chmod -R 000 /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure
Just do this: download a terminal emulator from the market. Open the app. Type su and press enter. Give it root access. Type chmod 777 /sdcard and press enter.
Please note you need root to do this

[Q] How to install a stock application

Hi everyone ! I updated my Zte Blade to CM 7.1 and I realised that this ROM don't has the "Task Manager" application . I extracted the .apk from a stock ROM of Blade, but I cannot install it.

Thanks!

Same question
You can push it to your phone with adb.
Code:
adb remount
adb push your.apk /system/app/
adb shell chmod 0644 /system/app/your.apk
adb remount
Sometimes when running 'adb remount' for the secont time (to remount /system back as read-only) it fails for me but doesn't give any error message. So if you want to make sure your /system gets mounted back as a read-only, you can run
Code:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw /system
This tutorial didn't work for me.I get no message on line "adb shell chmod 0644 /system/app/your.apk", but the rest seems work ok.
It's not supposed to output anything.Did the app work ok?

Was the file copied to your device? It could be the app's not compatible with gingerbread? Anyway, there are lots of task managers in the market, you could try a few and pick you new favourite. You could also try 'adb install your.apk' and see if that works. Other than that, I'm out of ideas.
The file was copied in my device, but nothing happend on reboot.I'm sure that TaskManager works on Gingerbread.I'll try to find another Task Manager.Thank you!
I managed to install it. So i think the problem was because i tried with a TasManager.apk extracted from a 2.1 stock version. Today, i tried with a 2.2 version extracted from 2.2 Swedish Spring (TaskManager.apk).
You can use the tutorial below or try this:
1.Download and install Root Explorer on your phone.
2.Put TaskManager.apk on sd card.

hey don't feel bad I need boot img and system img to get my running again....or I just need to pop it in the microwave and call amazon and ask for a new one and start over
My Kindle is alive. If someone need this files too, they can be found in the Update.bin at Amazons website.
@crzyjoker13. Good luck with your device.
Here you go, pulled straight from the latest update...
It's just the files you requested, the file structure should be correct.

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

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

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.

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.
