On my triple boot card I have Google Eart and Maps on both the CM7 and the CM 9.
On the CM 7 It works ok and updates load and install flawless.
On the CM9 Earth and Maps are pre installed.
Earth just does not work. I can load the update and install it but when I start up It tells me that it unfortunally stops.
The installed Maps version works ok, but the update won't install.
It says some signature is missing and tells to uninstall maps and reinstal.
I think that I need to uninstall Google Earth and Maps and than reinstall.
But the problem is, that I see no way to uninstall the preinstalled apps, because they are part of the system.
Thanks for any answer.

You can manually remove them with root explorer, but the best way is to use Titanium Backup. Or with CM9, you can use settings to disable system apps, which they are.
thanks again for your reply.
I downloaded root explorer but did nothing with it, It was too overwhelming for me to find out what to do.
I did try to download the free Titanium Backup but I got the message "error processing purchase [DF-BPA-09]
I was able to download the payd Keyapp, but this won't work without the free Titanium app.
In my CM9 Settings part there is no possibillity to disable system apps.
A lot off the free apps that I try to download stop installing with "error processing purchase [DF-BPA-09]
This is all in CM 9.
In CM 7 everything works okay.
Any idea what's wrong??

In CM9 go to settings, apps, all apps tab, scroll to the system app you want and open it. There should be a disable button there. Once you select that it is not active anymore. If you want to re-enable you do the same thing and then hit enable.
Thanks for your answer.
I could disable the app in this way.
What I hoped was that I could remove it and load the app from the appstore.(that is not gone work)
So this does not really solve the problem.
I am able to ues earth on CM7.
So I will install the apps, that won't install on CM9, on CM7.
No further messing around.
Thanks for your time and expertise.

Try fix_permissions, or fix uid packages if you're using Amon_RA's recovery.
I had a few issues with my phone, flashing and flashing data.img back and then using Titanium Backup seems to have left a few irregularities, including Google Maps is on version 3.4 but wont update to 4.0 from the Market.
When I go market and look at Google Maps, the button is just to open.
How can I fix this please?
No-one knows? No-one even knows of a download for 4.0 Google Maps apk?
First make sure your google maps isnt actually version 4.0
Second go to Settings --> applications. Uninstall google maps. Go to market and install 4.0. Easy!
you can't uninstall maps on a nexus if you're not rooted
I don't think it's listed in Apps in settings, which is probably to do with my problem. In the Market it shows as installed though... so I can't tap to install it again
Btw, I am rooted.

My Nexus gives me the option to uninstall updates, and by doing so will make sure the fella is on v3.4.
I wasnt exactly right but my solution was valid. I dunno why its not shopping up in your list though. Very strange
Hi all,
I tried installing brute maps so I can use navigation in my country, so I uninstalled maps with root (don't ask me why). Bottom line, I don't have google maps now and any try to install an apk fails. I know there are ways of doing that via adb, can anyone provide some help or links?
Thanks

try deleting the apk with root explorer(its either in /data/app/ or in /system/app/), then reboot and try installing it again. you might want to fix_permissions too. open the terminal emulator app, type su(press enter) type fix_permissions(press enter), then let it finish.
Might be a nooby suggestion but can't you just install it back from the Android Market?

No. At most you can "uninstall updates" to force uninstall it, you need root access because Maps.apk is a system app.
use file manager and goto the systems folder, thats out side of the sd card, select app, see if the map.apk is still there, if so, you can just click on that and reinstall, if it says overwrite, just press ok.
i had the same problem with youtube, after installing a new rom, it shows i had youtube, installed in the uninstaller software, but cannot find it anywhere, it will not let me delete, or reinstall from market, or as a apk, so i used the method above and it works.

Hmm... I just installed AOSP + CyanogenMod's Google Apps (it does not have Google Maps), then I installed Google Maps from Android Market and it works fine.
Not really applied to OP's situation though

Erm.. if you re-read what I said closely.

But yeah. OP has root, just go to the market and re-download Maps. if you dont see it then download market enabler and spoof it as T-Mobile USA and download
if the APK install failed.. how are you trying to install it? what APK?
Hi, I've got a problem I cant fix.
I wanted to downgrade Google Search so I uninstalled updates and it went back to stock. I then installed the version I wanted. v3.1
Now, this is my problem. I DONT want it to show in Google Play as an update so I tried to make a updated APK like I have with many other apps where I like older versions.
Now I used Lucky Patcher and that didn't like making the modded APK but it did back a backup. So I clicked RESTORE BACKUP. and guess what? It deleted the app instead of restoring it.
Now when I try to install it from either any APK or even directly from Google Play it keeps saying the device is full and fails to install.
I have over 1GB free. I've deleted about 10 apps and still keeps saying device is full. I've reinstalled those 10 apps and they fit and install without problems and I still have over 1GB free.
HOW do i get Google Search reinstalled? I dont want to reflash it as I will loose ROOT and that was a big enough ***** to install the first time.
I have a stock recovery menu. Rooted Galaxy S4 i9505 4.3 official firmware.
I did delete delvik cache and the cache in recovery menu.
I cant find any other ways to restore it? I tried titanium backup with the backup I have of it but that never ends when I click restore. It doesn't finish, doesn't do anything just sits there saying its restoring but never stops still I kill it even after 30 mins it was still restoring.
Anyone??
I did try Titanium Backup and made a update.zip and that fails both from SDCARD and ADB as its not signed and its stock recovery.
Do I have to install a custom recovery? Can I use the one I used with 4.2.2 or do I have to get a 4.3 version? That was i9505-cwm-recovery-6.0.3.2-4.tar
Anyone?
I'm stumped. I dont have a clue whats going on and why it wont install and why its saying its full when its got 1GB free.

Thanks for the reply.
Was hoping not to do that.
BUT, everything still works without it anyway and as it stole the use of my Bluetooth button it wont be missed but I do like the Google Now alerts.
What happened with me was the latest few versions stole the link to the bluetooth button. Before when you pressed the button you had the option of S-Voice or Google Search and now the newer versions dont have that option and always use Google Search and you have no way to revert back to S-Voice. I had Google Search disabled for a while but I want to use Google Now so I need the app but not the new version so an old version works fine. I think the last is 3.1? I didn't try 3.2 but I know 3.4 has that forced Google Search now.

I got it installed and fixed a few other apps at the same time.
I went to root /data/data and found the google search was a 0kb file so I deleted it and it installed fine after that. I also had a few other apps that were playing up so I deleted those folders and they now install and work fine.
So in the end no need to reflash just remove the corrupt files and its all fixed.
I did find out Google Search 3.3 is the last of the good versions, 3.4 is when it steals your bluetooth's connection and uses it for its own without letting you choose default.
As S-Voice is a Samsung feature those not with a Samsung phone wont care but those like me that use S-Voice will be annoyed that the latest Google Search removes the choice. I recommend to disable so it goes back to default version then get v3.3 and install that and use an app to remove it from updating in Google Play then all will be good.
it's solved right?
but anyway maybe you could try to flash gapps . Don't now if it will works but i good to try anyway ;D

When uninstalling on stock, you only delete apk file. You have also to delete corresponding odex odex file in system/
Then, you have to remove also corresponding folder in system/data/data
Then, you can try to reinstall the app.

I fixed it. There was a corrupt file in /data/data and as soon as I deleted it, it finally installed fine after that.
Now trying to stop Google Play from upgrading and also removing it from the update list is another problem.

I do that and it doesn't work with Titanium Backup.
I want to remove it completely so it doesnt even see it in the Google play store.
In Titanium Backup you can remove it from Google Play but that option doesn't work as I've had it removed twice and its updated both times.
So far its working. I've turned it into a user app and removed it from the store and its not updated yet but I will give it till tomorrow and if it auto updated like the last 2 times I will just uninstall it again and not use it. Its more trouble than its worth anyway.

I want it installed, I want to use Google Now but I don't want to update to the bad version and I don't want Google Play to keep telling me there is an update so I want it removed from Google Play.
As I said Titanium Backup does have a "Detach from Market" option which does remove it but after a few hours it updates anyway so that option doesn't work.
When you make a custom APK it's not seen in the Market so that works but Google Search doesn't work when you customise the APK.

I've unticked that box so Google Search won't auto update but it's still in the update list and it still gives notifications that it needs to be updated.
It needs to be removed from Google Play, that's the only way to stop it from updating or asking to update and it's the only app I can't customise that I've tried. I've modded many apps and they work and they are removed from Google Play but this one I can't.
I also want other apps to auto update so I dont want to turn that option off.

YES YOU CAN.
Just install Market Fixer and that removed it. But it does sometimes show up after a reboot. I rebooted twice and it showed up the first time but not the 2nd time.
So it looks like I've fixed the problem.
Titanium Backup's 'Detach from Market' doesn't work but Market Fixer does the same thing and that does work.
The problem I think is its a system app, its used by my Google account, its used by half the system so its not easy to hide from the App Store. As other apps aren't used the same way they are easily hidden but Google Search isn't.
So yesterday I was browsing the Google Play Store when I noticed Google keyboard wasn't installed even though I have it so I attempt to install it again and it failed. I thought it was just a bug so I left it and the next day when I restarted my phone Google keyboard just disappeared. I can't use it anymore I can only third-party keyboard from playstore. Help please I need to get Google keyboard back because I'm so far not liking third-party keyboard. I don't know what I did wrong but tried to fix it by wiping system data and reflash the ROM and G apps but that didn't fix it. So please help me fix this problem thank you in advance.

How do I do that I'm running cm 14.1 android 7.1 and I don't see that option. BTW if I select show system apps, it's not in there either. BTW I just tested, disable apps will show up on titanium back-up as frozen and a option to defrost but google keyboard isn't even in titanium back-up.
