I believe that u have to re-sign the Apk .... if u search the forums or Google it u may find an answer.... also if u search u might find an updated miui music apk.
That is all
nobody calls my EVO a fizzle and gets away with it!!
Indeed...The apk needs to be signed before it's installed. Download zipsigner 2 from the market. Put the .apk on your phone, sign it, and install it with your file manager.
I just get astro file manager and go to whatever folder it saved to

No problem.....I'll give it a shot.
One other thing......Did you uninstall your old Miui Music app before you installed this one, or did you install over the top of it? Sometimes it makes a difference.

Can anyone post a file so I can download this. I accidentally deleted this and now i really need it. Thanks.
you can easily download any of the roms that have sense and use a zip program to open the packaged rom and grab the HtcLockScreen.apk
Or just google it. Its the first thing that comes up.

I flashed midnight rom and then emotionless beast. I then wet into the black market and it was working fine but couldn't download on 4g so I cleared cache and data and it started force closing
So I said ok, lemme switch it with the one in themes and apps labeled "working"
I was able to delete the vending.apk with the sdx app remover that was posted in there, but I couldn't delete the com.android.vending folder because I was using terminal emulator and it wouldn't let me remove it
So i unzipped the blackmarkettest2.zip by accident in andro zip and saw the .apk so just tried to install that, but it kept saying its not installing, so I went and redownloaded and flashed blackmarkettest2.zip an the market wasn't there
Then I remember sdx madea backup of the old vending.apk inthe rom so I restored it and it kept force closing when I would try to look at an app in the marketplace
So I think my problem lies in the fact that I was never able to delete the data/data folder
Is there anyway to do that through terminal emulator? I can't get root explorer. Too much money. And before some of you say $5 is nothing to a $500 phone, don't try to count other peoples moneys please and thank you

HOW TO INSTALL THESE APPS.
Put these apps on the sd card, or download them directly from phone.
when you click it it will say application not installed.
You must get a file manager, such as ASTRO, or ROOT EXPLORER
and move these .apk files to system/app/...
ALL APK FILES FROM POST 1, AND 2 ARE IN THIS ZIP.
APPS THAT ARE NOT ON POST 1 OR 2 ARE IN POSTS ARE IN NORMAL POSTS, AND THESE ARE THE ONES ADDED SO FAR.
think free or thinkdroid.apk
The Sim's LIMITED Edition (WORKS ON VIBRANT ONLY) - all downloads are on post.
Continued....
If you download swype.apk
you may need this swypelib core file.
put it in SYSTEM/LIB/...
You should remove avatar.

its just the .apk, so people on custom roms, but have avatar on sd card, they can use that .apk with the sd card movie.
Awesome. Will add to the stickies soon.
Should be in the App Section though. Hopefully a mod can move it.
Reread thread, never mind.
OP could you post samsung apps like feeds and updates, daily briefing, memo, allshare etc.

The Sims is a problem because it is two APKs. One is the launcher and does nothing without the actual game. The game is too HUGE to post, and might be considered warez, even though it has been confirmed it will only run on a true T959. So if you want that one the best solution at the moment it to get it from the market since EA recently released it.
what version of swype is that?

On astro click back until it says back 1 more time to exit.
That's where u find system then find app or apps, then paste or move it in there.
To the version of swype question, this is from the latest official froyo.
Edit : I will add thinkfree AND sims if a mod tells me its okay.
Ill add sins by giving sd card data
Not to self advertise BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTT http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894794 has this ability to add all the stock apps you want and it will package them in a pretty flashable zip for you, too

Have you confirmed that the apk is in fact in /system/app and that it was not a failed copy?
I have noticed that when using DroidExplorer to do pushes, if the permissions are not correct it acts the same as if it copied ok. I usually end up having to verify using a on phone file manager like Astro or Root Explorer that the file is actually there.
after rebooting again i checked astro and it is in the system/app folder. i did notice that the rest of the files in system apps have the size, date, and something that says -r- (dont really know too much about astro so i have no idea what that means). but i did notice that the memo apk has the size, date, and instead of -r- is has -rw. anyone know what that means?
Hey I have 2.2.1 Android version and 2.3.340 Sytem version on my Droid X and I need some help. When I first rooted my X I very quickly uninstalled all the bloatware that I didn't want bc I didn't know that you could just keep it and rename it. Now I have Root Explorer and I have the capability of renaming files, but I'm missing a TON of bloatware. Do any of you guys have link directing me towards a place where I can download those missing files? Thanks!

you cant just copy the files over.
you need the apk and the odex files
then you need to change the permissions to rw-r-r and install it
then you need to reboot
i would SBF and start over renaming them to bak or try a custom ROM thats 10x better than stock like apex, darkslide or if you prefer ASOP then Liberty.
You'll have to excuse my ignorance, but what's sbf? Lol.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Oh, and after reading your helpful info on changing the permissions I still wasn't able to install some of the files. So, a few questions:
#1- What folder do I need the files to be in before I try to install the apps?
#2- Do the still end up in /system/app like all my other apps once I install them?
#3- Why would an app like for instance "friendfeed.apk" say "Aplication not installed" after I click on "install"? Bc that's what a lot of my apps are saying when I try to install them.
Please help! I'd rather install each of these apps 1 by 1, THEN rename them, instead of completely returning my phone to stock, customizing it (ringtones, apps, wallapapers), THEN rooting it again, installing the rest of the apps that I can't run without Superuser access, and THEN renaming all those files. Ugh, this is a pain in the butt. Please give me step by step instructions on how to do this (move "x" file and "y" file to folder "z", etc....). I'm a noob at this so I need it basic. Thanks!
Back up your contacts to your Google account and return your phone to stock. All your apps can be redownloaded from the "my apps" section of the market once you sign in w/ your Google account. Your contacts will also be resynced. It's a piece of cake. And rooting with z4root is so, so, so, easy.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Ugh....I was trying to avoid returning it to stock. I've got all my ringtones and stuff customized. Is there no way to leave my phone as is and just put the files back on there?
Also, would just doing a factory data reset put all the stock apps back on there? Or do I have to do more?
