"DELETE ME" DISREGARD Help finding EC05 Update File - Epic 4G General

I Odin'd back to DI18 and got the EC05 update (downloaded successfully)... but I didn't reboot to install it. I want to actually pull that update file off the phone but I can't locate it. Is it not on the SD card? Can someone help me find the file? Thanks much

It's in the /cache directory in main memory. I was able to copy it using ES File explorer. Be aware that it contains binary difference files that can only be used to upgrade from DI18. It doesn't contain the full ROM.

It's been posted many times and is the source of the updates linked all over this forum. No need to post it unless you have the EB13 to EC05 update.

I saw that one... .but I read another forum message "Direct from Sprint" that this one is not official and to not install it period.... Not sure why they are saying this... maybe there is something wrong with that update file.

How was this found? If via KIAS. Can you guys get the decryption keys and what not so we can get it into a ODIN version?

You need the keys which can be gotten from a packet dump.
Or you can grab it via KIES if this is where this came from. You can grab the temp file.

What he said
I have the tools just need the crc and encrypt strings to open it up
Once we have that we can dump it and deodex it. Also, other way to get it is to let it decrypt via Kies and then snag it from the temp directory

[Q] Extract single application from custom rom

hey,
I wanted to extract "Torch" application from "Azure" Rom and few other applications. as Torch is the only working app which did really enable the LED for HTC Legend.
I actually opened the ZIP package to path \azure-1.0.1.zip\system\app where the applications are stored, every app comes in APK and OBEX files. I extracted few APKS, non of them worked.
I am seeking some help for extracting the application from the ROM.
Thanks in advance!

Any other LED torches that works with LEGEND?
*EDIT: well, I found it, its named Lamppu. but anyway it didnt work, although my phone is rooted! why is that?
Try Extended Controls, there is a Torch Widget which worked on my HTC Legend. (NOTE:Root access Required For this very Widget)

If you find a ROM that has both .apx and .odex in the app-folder you will not get it to work by only extracting the .apk file.. You need both of the files in order to include them in another ROM..
Use a backup program like Titanium backup or MyBackup pro: they will extract for you.

That makes sense...but who would I merge the .apk and .obex together to be in one .apk file so I can install it?
Or maybe you know some way I can install these files?
Help would be really appreciated.

You mean like after loading the custom ROM, I backup the application I want then restore them after I load the custom I want?!
This is just long process of backing up your data then load custom rom, then back to the old rom, then root then restore...
I thought there might be easier and shorter ways?!
Any help would be appreciated. Gracias!
Anyone to help?????
try the kitchen method.
Scout around in the .zip to find the package you want, copy the .apk to your ADB directory and then, with the phone plugged in:
Code:
adb install [I]path-to-package[/I].apk

To be honest you've answered your own question. What you've done is the easiest way to pull an app from a ROM. So if your issue is something else it may be an idea to re-write your question (again, I know. Sorry).
I also apologise for mis-interpreting your question the first time 'round. I hope my help in this post is better.

Your help so much appreciated mate!
Well, the last conclusion I got to is, the .apk and .obex files are actually one file but they were divided to 2 files just to make them work better, so if you take the .apk file only it wont work as it will be missing the other .obex file.
Anyway, I am also guessing there is a way to merge the 2 files back, I read a little about "de-odex" but I couldnt really get the best help I could get. I will post the solution once I get to it.
Thanks again for your help mate!

I know it's a pain, but de-odexing the whole rom might help. Unless you already did this, in which case something is wrong with your download I imagine.

I just need a location (I think). I looked in the root directory, /sdcard, and /cache and can't find anything. I am wondering if because this is small (~13 meg), if it isn't in the update.zip format???
I did a search on my PC with the phone connected for any file with a size over 10MB to see if I could find a strangely named 13.3MB file... but no luck there either. Do you have a file in your root directory named DiskCacheIndex25466.tmp or something like that? I never noticed it before, but it says it's 0 bytes...

The backup files in my thread is stock version of webtop file.i think the OP is requesting the original webtop file of v.4.1.57 otherwise it cannot be updated to 1.83.
can anyone help on that?
Actually,my script has the backup sentence,but i delected 2 files by accident.
I backed these up from my atrix when I first got it.
I used them to revert from the webtop mod back to stock before updating to 1.57. I'm not sure if they're any different than the stock ones that come with 1.57.
Files included in the webtop_original.zip
DockProvider.apk
DockProvider.odex
DockService.apk
DockService.odex
PortalApp.apk
PortalApp.odex

In order to update to 4.1.83,we have to return the webtop files to v4.1.57 6 files.

[Q] How to install Acer Sync on Taboonay ROM?

I post this question in Taboonay 2.2. But I think it may be more appropriate in this Q&A section. Here it goes.
I like Taboonay ROM alot. But I need Acer Sync and this ROM has it removed.
Taboonay Tools has Acer Sync. But when I use Taboonay Tools to get Acer Sync, nothing happens. I couldn't get Acer Sync installed on the tablet using Taboonay Tools. So I am now back to the Stock ROM as Acer Sync is important for me to sync with my outlook contacts and calendars.
Thus my question is, how can I install Acer Sync on to Tablet A500 after Taboonay 2.1 or 2.2 ROM has installed? I already installed Acer Sync on my PC (downloaded from Acer).
I appreciate if anyone who can help me with this. Thanks in advance.
i would say to extract the apk file from another rom who has it and instal it using file explorer instal at system/app
make sure you have su permisiion on file manager app
Thank you for your quick reply. I have tried your approach with root explorer. It won't install as it is a system application. I get installation failed error. If you have done it, can you elaborate it further in detail? Thanks.

You need to extract:
Acersync.apk
Acersync.odex
Acersynchelper.apk
Acersynchelper.odex
from a ROM that has it.
If I was doing it, I'd extract those files from system/app from a stock 3.2 ROM, and inject them into your ROM prior to installing it. That may get you where you need to be.

I did what you said I think:
1) Use root explorer to copy
Acersync.apk

Acersynchelper.apk
Acersynchelper.odex
from Stock ROM system/app folder to a external SD card
2) Get in ClockWorkMod and did Wipe Data/factory reset , Cache and dalvik before I installed Taboonay ROM (with updates to 2.2)
3) Use root explorer to copy the above 4 files from SD card to system/app
4) Change the permissions to include user's rights (all three)
5) click install
Then I get installation failed error.
If you get it work, please share with me how you did it. Thank you.

Why not use Google Calender Sync? Works really well for me. Syncs Outlook to Gmail which then the phone and tablet both readily work with. Not sure if it will do contacts though, if it does I blocked it from doing so very early on.
