Currently on cm7 nightly 12, the one after rc1. Whenever I open root explorer, it gives me a black screen and says root explorer under rge notification bar, then just force closes. I don't know what could be the problem here.

Try super manager. Just go into the settings and enable root functions. Its a freebie.

Long story but I screwed up my permaroot and cannot figure out how to continue. Is there any method to flash back to full stock if I cannot do "su" (i get an "unknown user root" error). Thanks.

Edit for length.
Thanks. Wasn't working for me, but the guys helped my use the alternate approach AND change the perms on su and that got me to a point I could start over again.

works great for me
I searched on google with no answers so I want to make sure I am right.
I have backed up several htc apps from sense 3.0 like camera, keyboard, etc. I want to replace the RoyalGinger keyboard, camera, etc.
I tried root explorer mount and permissions set right. But once I try instsll it says Application Not Installed
How do I do so, with Root Explorer? ADB?

by "backed up" do you mean you saved the .apk somewhere? if not, do that first.
Then, with root explorer, navigate to /system/app, mount as r/w and just place those
.apks that you backed up, into /system/app. then reboot

Ok so wifi hotspot showed upin the list but force closes. Inside wireless settings hotspot showsup and works though is that stock to royalginger?
How do I replace apps now? I can add but they wont work, incompatible?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
Is it just that app that force closes? have you tried any others?
I believe wifi hotspot is a feature included in royalginger, but i havent used that rom in a long time. You shouldnt need a separate app for it if its inside of Wireless Settings though.
I don't think you can use sense system apps with royal ginger. Specially sense 3.0 system apps

Yeah well I have all dependencies frm 3.0 backed up as apk. The entire sense ui. Id like to use sense lockscreen
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
lol i guarantee you do not know each and every dependency required by each Sense app. and they are not in the form of an apk. look through the hundreds of files in the /system/bin and /system/lib folders, then try to tell me you know which files are needed.

Have you checked your EMMC chip? If you have the bad one I would suggest not rooting

You can remove the apps while temp rooted, but think they will return whenever you reboot the phone...
Is it an alternative to this den

This thread has a few ways to check it and tells you which one is bad (samsung)...check post 392 for probably the easiest way. As far as rooting your phone, did you follow one of the stickied guides in the development section?
Thanks but I still don kno how to check my emmc or let alone know if its bad or not

You can use titanium backup or other apps to "freeze" apps. This is permanent (but reversible) even under temp root. They still take up space on your phone but are otherwise invisible.

Freeze Market Updater using an app like Titanium Backup, or use Terminal Emulator to freeze it. The required terminal emulator command can be found in this post:

I currently have the android revolution Rom and want to get rid of the arrow keys on the bottom of the keyboard.
So I'm guessing I would have to replace the keyboard completly

As far as I know that is true unless the keyboard has configuration options, or plugins of some sort.
Nope there is no settings and yeah I don't use the arrows at all just takes up space for me

Good Luck!
I understand that the easy way out but I like the stock keyboard was looking for someone to tell me how to swap out the keyboard or flash another or something
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
I thought RC tweaks had an option for turning the arrows off?
I looked all over rc Tweaks and didnt see anything about it
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
If u wanna swap out a keyboard from a different rom just take out the apk and replace it.

Ok thanks and its just a simple cut and paste? Do I have to reflash it with the Rom? Also where would that be located?

Do not proceed if you have no idea what you're doing! i'm not responsible for whatever happens to your device by following this guide.
Method 1. use a file explorer that has access to the system like root explorer.
make sure you have rw access first
copy the file to /system/app
set permissions to rw r r
reboot
Method 2. use androidSDK/adb
move the file to location of adb i.e C:/androidsdk/platform-tools
connect phone to computer
open command window
type in the following:
Code:
adb devices
adb push location-of-your-file /system/app
adb reboot
you made need to set permissions for it to work
to do that:
adb shell
su
chmod 777 /system/app/name-of-file
reboot
both these methods require su and root!
Can you also add a keyboard as a 2nd one..like instead of replacing one, just add an apk and have the option to choose between the 2?

Yeah. When you add a keyboard (like swift key keyboard) just go to settings, language & keyboard, then select your keyboard you just installed. Voila!
One more question.. I looked in system/app with root explorer, and I looked 2 and 3.times, and I see no keyboard apk? Where else could it be or what other name?

Ok, I took the HTC_IME.apk from the LeeDroid Rom which my wife uses, & I put it in the /system/app folder in the Endymion Rom which I am using and I fixed permissions, rebooted, & it works ok til I try to close it after I'm done typing, then it force closes. It just says HTC_ime has stopped suddenly and must close bla bla bla! My 1st thought was that I think LeeDroid is sense 3.0 & this Endymion is sense 3.5? Or is there another way to fix it? Only difference is the arrows across the bottom, which I like. Thanks..

That's what it sounds like. Try taking it from Virtuous Fusion or Unity, then it will probably work.

After typing the last line for the permissions is it supposed to say anything?
Also im doing it in terminal emulator I dont know if thats causing my problem cuz the .apk keeps causing a fc
