Removed System Apps Preventing Update - App List and Downloads - Acer Iconia A500

So it seems that those of us unfortunate enough to of removed any system apps from the original ROM will not be able to update. Can anyone upload the non-licensed apps here so everyone can easily revert to stock so we can update?
I can see that there are requests popping up and it would be a good idea to have a central thread with all stock apps available. With 3.1 update on the horizon and the absence of recovery solutions, it would be handy for everyone to have easy access to all of these APKs.
PLEASE DO NOT POST LINKS TO ANY FULL GAMES!!!!
These are the APKs and ODEXs that are required:
system/app
AcerRegistration.apk
Aupeo.apk
Email.apk
Email.odex
GameLoftStore.apk
HeroOfSparta.apk
HTMLViewer.apk
HTMLViewer.odex
LatinImeTutorial.apk
LetsGolf.apk
LinkToAdobeFlash.apk
LinkToAdobeFlash.odex
LinkToFacebook.apk
LinkToFacebook.odex
LumiRead.apk
MusicA.apk
NFS.apk
SocialJogger.apk
TegraZone.apk
Phone.apk

Thanks Sammy, however this is only a few of the packages.
The above includes: Aupeo.apk
LinkToAdobeFlash.apk
LinkToAdobeFlash.odex
LinkToFacebook.apk
LinkToFacebook.odex
Anyone have any more to list here?

We need a complete list of all the apks and odex files from a untampered source. I can't remember all I changed.

I have edited the original post to include list of APKS - see above

As long as I know, the .apk's are different for different kernel version.
You can try search /system dumps (system.img) in this forum, and extract those .apk's using ext2explore. I did fix my Email.apk using this way.

i found that you can download these apps from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086887

Hi, my Iconia offered me an update. Ofcourse because of the missing apps
it was unsucessfull of instaling it. So I downloaded this package from the following link:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=8KHWBF7E
link that I found on this forum and copyed the missing apps from it
in the system/app, with root explorer. Beware to mount the system/app
folder as Mount R/W in root explorer to allow write in it.
Then the update went fine.
Thanks to this forum for helping me and all the other members.

can't seem to update the email or any other apk with a matching odex. What am I doing wrong?

Here;s a complete folder untouched from a system dump. It has the apk and odex files. hope this helps anyone.
>>> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7654149/app.zip <<<

Thanks a lot for this file. I copied all files in app folder with root explorer and now it says that my tablet is up to date without me upgrading. I guess you zipped the files after the upgrade?

No, that's was from the system dump over at SDX, I think dc13 posted it >>> http://forum.sdx-developers.com/acer-a500-development/system-dump-14235/ . But you are still welcome anything to help out a fellow member

did the same and it worked

I had previously removed a lot of the bloatware and when I got the update it failled to install as I was missing a lot of system apps. Copied the missing filles from the link above and paste them with root explorer. Updated succesfully!

Does the update provide Exchange support in the email app?

Reset back to stock and still cant update.
Ive only had my a500 for a week. I have not removed/deleted/renamed any of the stock apps. I installed gingerbreak (to root) and thats about it. oh i changed the resolution with LCD density changer. I cant update.
So i reset back to stock and still no luck. Any ideas?

I used Root explorer to copy the original factory APKs to the system/app folder. In the middle of copying, Root explorer force closed and the tablet restarted ittself. Now it is stuck in a loop on the ANDROID boot screen
How do I fix that?

Thanks to everyone who helped to provide files for the update. I'm finally updated!
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App

I don't have all the files shown in the post above but my iconia took the update fine. I lost root after but was able to get root again.

By doing this wont we lose the ability to receive future OTA's or manually update without jumping through a thousand hoops? .... like when Paul's app modified the system folders to remove goggles?

It doesn't matter too much now. Just wait and we will get all kinds of custom ROMs and you can flash whatever you want. After OTAs come out, usually you can get a custom deodexed version within hours. At least that's how it was on my N1. I'm pretty sure there are more G2s in peoples hands now than N1s, hence more interest? Just guessing...

Back then, we didn't have S-OFF so putting the app back after it was deleted was impossible. Now we do have S-OFF so we're all good, as long as you backed-up the apps prior to removing them.
do i have to delete the the original .apk and .odex files from the system/app after moving the originals to the sdcard/backup? or do i just move it, and leave the original stuff in the system app. and reboot. and then install the CM apk's?
dam legit!

If you move them from one place to another, then they are only in the place where you moved the to, and are no longer in the place where you moved them from. Hence move not copy.

Can't update: Missing PerformanceManager.apk

I am trying to update to version 4.1.57 but it fails checking for PerformanceManager.apk in /system/app. I uninstalled this app and lost the backup for it. Would any one be kind enough posting this file?. I need the apk for version 4.1.26. Thank you.
see if the dump release by designgears is still online. if not, you will need to flash the sbf file to get it unless someone posts the apk

I found the dump by designgears. The update went fine after I copied the files (apk and odex) to /system/app using Root Explorer. Thanks for the info!

Calendar.apk

Does any have the original(Elocity official) Calendar.apk, that they can provide?
At some point I must have deleted mine in favor of one that someone posted when DexterMod(1.31) has FC issue.
I have ran the official update.zip from Elocity and i have no calendar app.
Please provide Calendar.apk and CalendarProvider.apk
Thank you.
throw it to ya in about 3 or 4 hours when the kids goto bed, if someone else doesnt beat me to it.
..figured out howto mount system.imgs (i'm still green in linux) now i'm set to extract anything ya want.
Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
there is no calendar or calendarprovider.apk in the latest elocity firmware. that occurred to me earlier, as i recall there wasn't google calendar services available after throwin' gapps on the misses tablet.
i'm not sure if it would do you any good, as you indicated that 1.31 elocity firmware had fc's. i'm not sure if thats changed in 1.41, as i haven't compared the 2 versions.
but for fun, i zipped up an update zip containing the calendar.apk and calendarprovider.apk provided in dexter's 1.41 rom, but he did indicate that inserting his signed files shouldn't work on the official firmware. the rest of the gapps did work, so this MIGHT work too. it could also send you into a bootloop causing you to have to reflash your choice of dexter's firmware or the factory (there actually could be less destructive ways to recover using adb, but i may not have the time to assist with that if you're not already familiar with such steps).
my uneducated guess; should work based on my last gapps experiment. i can't test until saturday morning.
to note; 603 of the 692 files from dexters rom are factory, including some 44 system apk's (unaltered as a result of signing). kinda leaves me thinking you can add in the calendar files just fine to install, assuming you haven't tried to install them before. if you have, you may need to consult these troubleshooting steps first;
2.) Go into manage applications. Filter to all. Uninstall com.android.calendar.apk and com.android.provider.calendar.apk. Reboot again
3.) Copy Calendar.apk and calendarprovider.apk from this thread across to your SD card. Install both.
4.) If you want, use root explorer to move them from /data/app to /system/app but really not necessary. Reboot again, should sync by default but re-enable if you need to.

you can either rename that to update.zip and flash from recovery, or extract and copy the apk's by hand. whatever you're more comfortable with.
Thanks...
Copied both into /system/app... and clicked on them and it installed fine.
Thank you.

[Q] Accidentally removed DownloadProvider.apk

Hi All,
I have a rooted european TPT and I did something really dumb today: I nuked DownloadProvider.apk, thus killing any download functionality.
I downloaded the OTA update roms and had a look in there but they only have patches for the APK and not the file itself. I have been unable to find a full ROM image to use either, one linked from here was on Megaupload so that's gone.
May I beg someone to send me this APK please or point me to where I can find an image of the original ROM? Many thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hi
I have the same problem. Deleted the downloadprovider and I guess also the downloadprovider.UI.
I'm on 2.3.4 root. Build nr: 4.0.2.A.0.42.
What to do with the other file in the zip apart from the .apk and how to set the permissions when moving the .apk to the system/app folder?
thanks

The other file is the odex just copy it in /system/app like the apk. The files need the permission 644. You can set them i.e. with Terminal Emualtor or with adb:
Code:
su
busybox mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 644 /system/app/DownloadProvider.*
Unfortunately I did the same mistake like baz8080 .
Can you please help me with DownloadProvider for A310_02_0039_0089_WE?
I still have the apk and restored it to /system/app but the odex is missing and I'm still not able to download anything
Thanks in advance
Anybody?
I found DownloadProvider.apk + odex from 0076_WE
Is there any way to apply the patches from the update (0086_WE and 0089_WE) manually just on these two files?
Edit:
Solved it!
Hello all,
I'm a complete noob in Android and programing, and accidentaly deleted DownloadProvider.apk (using root unninstaller), and trying to remove another app that came installed in my Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos...

[Q] Stock ROM ThinkPad Tablet TPT

Hello,
does anyone knows where i find a Stock ROM Built A310_02 _0037_0076_WE or system apks located in /system/app.
After rooting and deleting some apks with Titanium backup without saving them (foul), it's not possible to install OTA2.
The update fails because /system/app/Calculator.apk was not found.
I've tried to remove the patch entries from update.zip Manifest file, but that doesn't work either. The update aborted with signature fail.
Thanks

My rooted 1838-25U is running A310_02_0037_0075_US. If there are any files you'd like off of my system, list them here and send me a PM with your email and I'll email them to you or upload them to dropbox for you.
