[Q] How do I install AccountAndSyncSettings.apk?

I am trying to access System-Settings-Accounts, but cannot find it on my NST rooted w Nook Manager.
I installed one touch Sync Settings from the market, but when I click on it, the NST reboots.
I found AccountAndSyncSettings.apk in the /system/app folder, but installation fails.
I copied the file over to my desktop and did an adb install. [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE]

Please advise...

You don't install it. The workaround to change sync settings is to use the gmail app to add an account and enter the same account information you already have setup and you will be able to update the sync settings.

You don't install apk's in /system/app/ you just put them in /system/app/ and after reboot start working.
Try to access AccountAndSyncSettings using 'NookColorTools'. If NCT does not allow access to these settings try using 'apktool' to decompile package and try to infer correct 'am start' command from the directory structure,filenames and code. Experiment with 'am start' using adb.

This is a Nook Simple Touch. NookColorTools sounds like something from the nook color?

please clarify...
If I understand you correctly, I need to:
1) open gmail
2) add an account (btw, when I click the add account button, it just goes back to the inbox...)
3) enter the same account info i already have in there
I am unclear on how I access sync settings after that is done?

Add account shouldn't send you back to the inbox. It should work like this:
Open gmail
Open menu, click on accounts
Click on Add account button
Click on the big g on the Add an account screen
Click Next
Click Sign In
Enter your gmail username and password
Click Sign In
Now you should be on the Data & synchronization page with check boxes for Contacts, Calendar and Gmail. Check/uncheck what you want and click on Finish.
If add account continues to send you back to the inbox get a logcat when that happens and post it.

Yes but some of the things in NCT work on the NST. But don't bother installing NCT for this as the Account & Sync Settings isn't there. Don't try digging the intent for am start out of the apk either as market tools like one touch sync settings have already figured that out and that's what they do. I tried all this when I put together NTGAppsAttack and could never get Account & Sync Settings to work. IIRC, its a layout issue. There is something funny about what B&N did to Android on the NST that causes some apps to die with layout issues. If I did remember correctly it might be possible to hack the apk up to get it to work but I don't have the time or motivation to do it as the gmail workaround does everything I need.

Do you have B&N apps disabled? If so, reenable and try again. B&N messed with the android authentication stuff and has their own account types. Since you aren't even getting to the page where you select the account type (Google and two generic android) I suspect it might be looking for disabled B&N account stuff and crashing.
The logcat isn't telling me much - is there anything earlier in the log of interest? /data/anr/traces.txt also might help but I'm not optimistic on that one.

It crashes android and restarts. I was wrong about it being a layout issue. Its a null pointer exception.

I'm pretty stock. Only rooted with NookManager and NTGAppsAttack. All B&N apps enabled. A few other apps installed but not too much. What kind of customization do you have? Maybe we can track down what makes it work on your device.

some answers...

I have ReLaunch set to show hidden files, do not hide known extensions and show all files.
When I tap on the data folder it comes up empty, i.e. there is no folder called anr to check for the traces.txt file.

OK, that's more helpful. It says you don't have an apk that handles the Add Account intent. It may have to do with your attempt to install AccountAndSyncSettings.apk from /system/app. Does AccountAndSyncSettings.apk still exist in /system/app? If so, try rebooting your NST and try the gmail work around again. If not, move it back there and reboot then try the gmail work around again.

Realunch won't see things in that folder. You need to use a file manager tat has an option to explore with root privileges like ES File Explorer. But the logcat you posted was what I needed so no need to post the traces.txt

I am geeky enough that I had already tried rebooting to fix the problem, but today I powered down the nook. I started it. The only thing I did before trying the gmail trick was start ADBKonnect and connect to the desktop.
The results were the same. My apps, task and service lists are the same with the exception that I uninstalled ZoReader. The task and service lists are identical, but there are a few differences in the "order".
Attaching the logcat file...

I installed and used Root File Manager to find the traces.txt file. It was empty.
Just an afterthought... should I use my NookManager microsd card to reinstall GappsAttack?

On my NST this command works fine because it starts the Gapps Sync_settings (I have NTGAppsAttack installed and configured)
other commands fail because nook does know which intent goes goes to Oobe.apk and which to Google account settings (I guess, based on ddms error messages).
Connect your nook via adb and run 'ddms' from your Android folder.
It specifically informs you when it is trying to run part of Oobe.apk or Gapps and when these commands generate errors.
Tonight I'll try to look closer to this problem.

yes it is still there
I am geeky enough that I had already tried rebooting to fix the problem, but today I powered down the nook. I started it. The only thing I did before trying the gmail trick was start ADBKonnect and connect to the desktop.
The results were the same. My apps, task and service lists are the same with the exception that I uninstalled ZoReader. The task and service lists are identical, but there are a few differences in the "order".
Attaching the logcat file...
...
I installed and used Root File Manager to find the traces.txt file. It was empty.
Just an afterthought... should I use my NookManager microsd card to reinstall GappsAttack?

Logcat shows the same thing. No apk to handle the android.settings.ADD_ACCOUNT_SETTINGS intent. It really sounds like your AccountAndSyncSettings.apk got mangled along the way somehow. Reinstalling NTGAppsAttack won't fix that as AccountAndSyncSettings.apk is part of the stock B&N stuff. A logcat from Android startup (package manager messages) could help pin down what's wrong with the apk you have but knowing that or not the fix would be the same. Either restore to prior to installing NTGAppsAttack and reinstall NTGAppsAttack. Or you could extract the AccountAndSyncSettings.apk from the B&N 1.2.1 update file, copy it to your /system/app folder, reboot and try the gmail workaround again. The first has the highest probability of success but the second isn't too much work and has a pretty good chance of fixing it.

The SYNC_SETTINGS intent is handled by AccountAndSyncSettings.apk which is part of stock B&N and isn't installed by NTGAppsAttack. I think this has something to do with the B&N account stuff they patched into android. Seeing from your profile you're not in the US or UK do you even have your device registered with B&N? Not having a B&N account setup might be what's making your device work as sync settings won't be trying to display a B&N account in its list of accounts.

I have the same issue. I tried multiple ways and apps to get to the sync settings. but my nst just reboots at every attempt.
osowiecki said:

It does not work or you have just missed something?
Got the command from decompiled "AccountAndSyncSettings.apk".
AndroidManifest.xml.
i tried this command in terminal app within nst. and it rebooted right away, after a brief pause.

my device is uk. just bought from argos last month rooted with nookmanager. one issue that i notice is that some dialog boxes display empty, possibly because foreground/background colours are same/similar. i can't remember whether i had this problem before rooting.

moving backward..

ok. the second option did not work. so, i am trying to reset the nook and start over.
i erased and deregistered it. after reboot i went through the setup process. then i rebooted with my nook manager card and rooted. rebooted and all looks good.
then i rebooted with the nookmanager card to install gapps attack
after reboot, i am stuck at step 16. Go back to ReLaunch and open the Market
when i do this it shows me the license screen i hit accept, then i just get a server error.
gmail and contacts apps seems to be working fine. when i open calendar, it opens but there is an image of an sd card superimposed over the top of the calendar -- i dont remember it doing htat before. talk will not open, it just briefly flashes the screen and goes back to the applications in relaunch.
I have done this entire process several times now and the results have been exactly the same each time???
update: i just tried this with a new gmail account, and the results were the same...
as i have thought about this most of yesterday and today, it seems to me that something is not getting cleared / deleted in the reset process...
aug-12-13 update: i installed nook color tools, used it to uninstall the market update, rebooted, rebooted w nook mgr card, reinstalled gappsattack. no change...
i am not sure if this is significant, but i noticed something else that supports my theory that not everything is getting erased in the reset process. when i open contacts, my google contacts from my original gmail acct are still in the list even though, i deregistered/erased and used a different gmail acct when i did this yesterday...

back to my original question...
I understand that B&N has modified the AccountAndSyncSettings.apk on the nook to fence it in to their company.
Has anyone tried replacing the AccountAndSyncSettings.apk in their nook with one from another Android 2.1 device?
I assume this would break the B&N apps, but I wonder if it would enable apps that need to access that apk...

[Q] Reboot while installing large app

OK so I have Magic 2014 on my tablet, version 1.2.0. I installed it from Amazon Appstore because it worked, whereas Play Store kept throwing errors at me while downloading the extra content. And hence, the in-app content purchases I've made have also been through Amazon.
This evening I tried upgrading the app to 1.4.0 from Amazon. It went through the entire 1.5 GB download, commenced the install... and then promptly rebooted. The app is still sitting at version 1.2.0.
I found the apk file cached in /sdcard/Android/data/files/apks. So I attempted to install from there. Again after about a minute it rebooted.
So, next, I monitored with adb logcat while doing the install. There was a lot of gunk in the log from other apps, so I tried again while enabling Developer Options "Don't keep activities". It was still too much text to monitor in a Command Prompt window, so I tried one more time using:
adb logcat > magic-crash.txt
to save in a text file. Here are the critical moments:

Does this give any clues to why this won't install without rebooting?
Incidentally I also tried to copy the 1.5 GB apk to my desktop and use "adb install -r". However I get this:
could not allocate buffer for 'magic140.apk'
rm failed for /data/local/tmp/magic140.apk, No such file or directory

Incidentally, I also tried taking a Titanium Backup of the 1.2.0 app and restoring the same version over top of itself. This, too, prompted a reboot with a similar logcat message.

Any advice would be appreciated. The same apk has no trouble installing on Nexus 5.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Update: I ended up going the brute force route. In TWRP recovery I replaced the existing APK version in /data/app/ with the new one, renamed it appropriately, applied chmod 644 and chown system.system to match. Starting it up now to see if that did the trick. Appears to work.

How to get xposed running properly on LG (Lollipop) roms

Background
So xposed foor lollipop is here but there are a few problems like apps that keep crashing.
So I made a flashable zip to remove those apps and to get xposed running.
So as the title says this is in how to guide
Flash the xposed zip and install the app from here(BOTH ZIP AND APP)
Flash my zip
Warning
Exposed is an alpha so it will be buggy and not all modules work
This will delete lg quickcover the quickcircle case will still turn the screen on but nothing more...
This will also delete lg weather

Thanks for the workaround, but isn't there any way to keep the LG Cover app ?
If you have any idea on what needs to b modified/changed for the app to work, i'll try it and make a zip for it if it works, i just spent some time on my logcat and I think the files provided by Xposed is missing the classes being called by the cover.

Could you upload your log here, I will try to fix it next week probably, I need to work now. This was just an quick workaround so that I wouldn't find posts in every rom thread about xposed breaking phones and people complaining about it in the wrong place. (my ocd wouldn't allow it)

Try freeze the lg cover app and see if it works I have the same issue but I was runing out of time for more test

was this happening because xposed tried to hook the lgcover app and the app detecting it?

Crash said:
Try freeze the lg cover app and see if it works I have the same issue but I was runing out of time for more test

Nope, freezing it didn't work.

That might be a cause, but why this, and the weather app specifically?!
My first guess was that the libs modified/replaced by the Xposed zip are compiled from the open source of Android, if LG added the Smart Cover classes to these libs then they'll not be in the Xposed version of them, which means we will need to decompile them and check,if so, then include the code in the libs provided with Xposed, but that's a worst case scenario.
Does Rovo usually take device specific cases in mind like this one? maybe he can shed some light on why this happened!
I don't think its an ART/Dalvik thing, but i'll see if I can flash the LG Cover app from a Kitkat rom.
---------- Post added at 04:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:10 AM ----------
UPDATE : I froze it using Titanum Backup ( kept hitting OK on the FC dialog and navigating my way around between OK hits ) then rebooted, no FC's for now and the WeatherPlatform FC only showed once when the device first booted.
Here is another logcat before freezing the app:

Looks like they have a sticky service which is very nagging and eager to start over and over again.

Just freeze LGSmartcover before flashing Xposed zip.
Not great if you use smartcover.

freeze LGsmartcover will affect to smartnotice and weather etc, tested on Crash ROM v.2.1

... The best way to get Xposed running - is to send these logs to Rovo.

Thanks, i'have used Your zip and uninstaled LG apps (i did not use them any way), instaled xposed and intelly 3G module and it Works.
Funy enough xposed steal says it's not installed properly but intely 3G module i use is working properly!
(see screen shots)

im sure many people are sending many logs to the dev and i will take time to get fixes, but we will!
in meantime i have freezed smartcover and IT DOES WORK.
if cant live w/o your smartcover then dont install the Alpha yet till the fix gets implemented!
did not freeze the Weather component persoanlly, just 1-2 erros upon boot up and thats it unlike the smartcover error which constantly pops up.
so far most modules work but the most important one for G3 users dont, "Tweakbox for G3" !

Working on my G3 (D855)! ROM: Cloudy 2.1
Thanks a lot!

but not many modules working like, Greenify, notifyclean, boot manager etc.. but one great module App Settings working but its saving option not working (have to force close app from settings to apply dpi change)...

So freezing works, will modify my zip to freeze ze them asap. and if O recall correctly the lgcover app had some kind of protection (see the developers only section) maybe xposed modified art then it modify the apps to work with the new art, but since the protection it couldn't modify lgcover? I need to go to work now but Soon as I am back I will reupload the new zip

Is it true???[emoji15]

omg, i just hit the error message for 5 minutes to get to titanium backup and freeze smart cover. thankfully it worked.
you have to be fast to hit something after hitting ok on the error popup! have fun!

Yotaphone2 constant tries for system update and sporadic reboots

I've a YD201 and recently upgraded from Lollipop to Marshmallow. I downloaded the stock rom and flashed it via TWRP + latest SuperSU
Wiped the dalvik cache ... ect ...
So far the upgrade went well ... but after I finished the setup-Wizard the phone keeps asking for System-Updates over and over gain.
If you check for updates the app responds: you're up-to-date no new version available ...
I stopped the manual update function, cleared the two system-update app's cache and blocked their access to the internet (via droid-wall)
Still android will ask for system-update check
On top - after an update check - the phone sometimes reboots ... when you lock the screen afterwards ...
One thing I notice is: when I use the reboot option, a message pop's up that some process tries to write in a (presumably) sqlight DB.
Unfortunately it doesn't show which process tries to write into what ...
But I suspect a coherence here between the constant update tries and a failed DB access.
Seems that the responsible app can't write it's data to the DB - get's an error and wait's for a "good chance" to reboot and try again ...
Does anyone know where Android stores the "System Update" information (eg. running Version, available version, last update try ... ect)
Yes, I already cleared the cache and did a factory reset ... no effect.
Any ideas ?

follow up
Hi all,
I was hoping on a little bit more support here ...
So I'm trying to narrow it down a bit by myself.
Code:

So the Activity Manager calls the: system_update.SystemUpdateReceiver ... and then some "magic" happens ... well, there's little trace on what's happening here at all, but I suspect that the EpdUpdateParamsManager receives some data and writes it "somewhere".
Now, this "somewhere" is what I'm trying to find, and I was hoping someone can point me there ... or at least in the right direction ...
Also, EpdUpdateParams is called quite often ... but I couldn't find any documentation on it ?
Can somebody shed some light on this ?

Hm, seems that on a Yotaphone2 the System-Update is related to com.symphonyteleca.update
So I checked the DB in /data/data/com.symphonyteleca.update/databases/updates.de
But the DB appears to be empty !

I have passed my IMEI to yotaphone and the update message is gone, the phone reboots however still reboots now and then , not really clear why or what exact triggers it.
Yotaphone support is not really helping, asking " describe in details the scenario in which rebooting appears" for ex.. right...

wear os app stuck at logo, does nothing...

Hello; This is happening in the latest two custom roms I've tested, being havoc os for chiron (xiaomi mi mix 2) the latest one:
The wear os app stuck at logo, nothing happens. Just installed the rom a few hours ago...
Tried:
Reinstalled the full super open google apps from twrp (just in case something were missing)
Reinstalled the app itself
Reset the watch (in fact, it's not related to the watch as the app itself in the phone is the one that hangs...)
These lines in the matlog makes me thing some service or related thing is missing in the havoc os (and other custom roms) :

Right now I cannot use the watch, it's waiting to be configured. So this is a pain in the a**
Thanks in advance !!!

Try another Gapps. Nikgapps should work for you.
