SYSTEM APP INSTALLING DOESN'T WORK YET.
THIS PROGRAM SOMETIMES DOESN'T WORK.
Prerequisites

1. Enable USB debugging.
2. Right-click any APK file, then choose Open With. Tick 'Always use the selected program to open this kind of file'.

5. In the textbox, type "Android package file (double-click to install)".
6. Now, the APK will install.
To install an APK in the future, just double click it!

Hi I am trying to install sqlce3.5 on a rom which dosen't have cf2.0 (cabs don't work) so I was thinking of manually copying the dll files to the windows folder to see what happens but I cant figure out how to access the windows folder from my pc (windows 7 RC if that matters) any ideas?
Via active sync choose the 'explore' options under 'tools' then a window will pop up. The default directory will be your documents folder what you need to do is go up one directory which will then be your device's root folder. Then from there you'll see the windows folder.
on windows 7 you have to use device manager and when i choose browse device it take to me choose either phone memory or memory card, if i choose phones memory the windows folder is not present and it cannot be seen even if i choose show hidden folders.
any ideas?
After device has sync'ed with pc, just open up your file explorer on your pc. Open 'My Computer' and then scroll down to 'Mobile Device'. If you expand this you should be presented with a list. Open 'My Windows Mobile-Based Device' and scroll down to 'Windows'
Thats the problem I am having I can get to the root just fine but when I am there the windows folder is not present like it is hidden, using view hidden folders dosen't help and typing in the path gets an error message saying it does not exist. I wanted to do this through windows but i suppose I will have to do it through the phones browser instead.

Open your file explorer on your pc, go to Tools > Folder Options > View and make sure 'Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)' is unticked
Other than this I'm not sure why its not showing

13.9 Installing and Uninstalling Programs
You can install or uninstall additional programs. Your phone does not allow you to uninstall most of the preinstalled programs.
Note Before you purchase additional programs, make sure that they are compatible with your phone.
Before you launch the program installer, check first whether the installer can directly run on Windows Mobile or needs to be run on a computer.
To install a program directly on your phone
1. If the installer is a .cab file, directly download or copy it to your phone.
2. On your phone, open File Explorer and navigate to the installer file.
3. Tap the file to launch the installer.
274 Chapter 13 Other Programs
4. Choose whether to install the program into the main memory or your storage card, if you have the storage card inserted on your phone.
5. Wait for the installation to complete.
Note You may be prompted to restart your phone after installation is completed.
To install a program from your computer
1. If the installer is an .exe file such as Setup.exe, most likely, the installer needs to be run on a computer. Download or copy it to your computer.
2. Connect your phone to your computer using the USB cable, and then double-click the installer file on your computer to launch the installer.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions on your computer and your phone to complete the installation.
To uninstall a program
1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab.
2. Tap Application > Remove programs.
3. In the Programs in storage memory list, select the program you want to remove, and then tap Remove.

Best regards!
There are times when a driver package simply will not install properly leaving Windows in a state where a a single component is missing or is linked to the incorrect driver or a dummy driver. In these cases Windows must be coaxed into finding the correct driver.
Go into control panel/system/device manager with the tablet hooked up. Look for devices with the yellow ! exclamation point.
Some drivers when you download them can be extracted directly from the package. Unfortunately the Acer USB executable keeps you from doing this directly. But, there is a way to get to the driver package and copy it.
Open an Explorer window. Navigate to C:\Users\<youruserprofile>\AppData\Local\Temp
That folder is technically hidden, if you can't see it, you'll have to go to the menu under tools/folder options and check 'Show hidden files and folders'. You may have turn on the menu bar by going to 'Layout' on the sidebar.
Note: Even if you can't see the AppData folder upon entering your profile directory, you can also navigate to it by appending \AppData to the path on the address bar.
Change your view to 'Details' and then sort by date. Leave that window as is.
Unzip the the Acer USB driver executable package. This will leave you with a file called "ICONIA TAB USB Driver Setup.exe"
Run the executable and select the language and then click 'next', and just leave it open and don't do anything. At this point the setup will extract the driver package from the executable.
Now go back to the Explorer window open to the temp folder. Scroll until you can see the newest folders (they should have the current date and time). The setup will have created 2 folders. One is the actual setup, the other is the drivers. On my machine, the driver folder name is "{2736D2C2-2104-4AA0-BEB9-091B78D38D7D}" but this may differ on yours.
Of the two created folders, the folder that has about 20 .ini files in it is the one you want. Go back up and make a copy of this folder to a different location where you can find it easily (right click and copy/paste or drag and drop).
Once you've copied this folder, rename it to something useful like "Acer A500 USB driver".
You can now close the setup. When you do, the setup will delete the folders in Temp.
You now have a folder with the full driver package.
Fixing missing or B0rken drivers:
Go to back to control panel/system/device mangler. With the tablet hooked up, look for any exclamation points related to USB or tablet. Right click on the non-working item and select "Update Driver Software". Then select "Browse my computer for driver software". Browse to the folder you copied and select it and click OK.
Windows should acquire and install the driver properly.
I have used this in ICS, where the tablet connects as a media drive but will not establish an ADB connection (Acer Composite ADB Interface).
Hi guys

This is from memory, and a few weeks old.
But from what I recall there is an additional step for the 1.06.1500 download, it does not extract the drivers directly but a msi package that contains the drivers.
So the steps would be something like:
Download the driver package
Unzip the driver package
Run the setup.exe
Just leave it running untill you have completed the next steps.
When started setup.exe file will extract a msi package into a subdirectory of %tempdir% (should be C:\Users\<youruserprofile>\AppData\Local\Temp as mentioned earlier)
Look in %tempdir% for the extracted .msi file
Extract the .msi file (using winrar of whatever you prefer that can read .msi)
It contains among other things the driver dll and inf files
Copy the files you want somewhere else
Well, that work, for the first step. Now i have to install the APX driver... And this is not working with these instructions... Any new Ideas? Thanks anyway

When I got stuck there, I fixed it by unplugging the Acer A500 from the PC's USB port.
Hi guys
Today I wanted to start porting some Galaxy Tab A apps to my Tab S by myself.
I searched for a Galaxy Tab A dump but there wasn't any...
So I decided to make a dump for myself.
Here are the steps I have done to create a system dump from a Odin firmware package
Let's start!
Things needed:
- Windows PC with...
- java installed
- sgs2toext4.jar downloadable from here
- ext2explore.exe downloadable from here
1) Take your time; download your Odin-Package from "sammobile.com/firmwares"
2) Extract the *.zip file using 7-Zip.
3) Now, extract the "system.img.ext4" in it
4) Open "sgs2toext4.jar"
5) A window called "Drop .img here" will appear
6) Take the "system.img.ext4" and drop it into the window
7) Wait; A new item called "system.img.ext4.img" will appear on your desktop
8) Now, open "ext2explore.exe" as Administrator
9) Click the "File"-tab and then click "open image"
10) Select your "system.img.ext4.img" which should be on your desktop
11) After this is done do a doubleclick on the harddisk icon on the right
11.1) Now you can see all things in your system partition
12) now go to the "Tools"-tab and select the "save" option.
13) Choose your place you want the dump
13.1) (Not recommended to select the desktop. Otherwise your desktop will be filled with a lot of things. Create a folder on the desktop instead)
14) Voila, your dump is ready. Be happy and press tha THX button now haha
I really do not know whose work the sgs2toext4.jar's is. Tell me via PM so I can give credit
Have a nice day :=)
awesome post!!!! Oh, if anyone needs updated links to the 2 file here, let me know as the original links no longer work.
