Adding apps to rom

I tried to add skype.apk to system/app, but it doesn't work when i install rom. I guess some permissions are not set.

What should i do to be able to run such additional apps from system/app? I do this so they are installed out of the box, and so they can't be uninstalled.

How to fix this?

Also, phone is way too quiet when xloud is not running. I don't mean a little, i'm talking i can't hear ringtones and notifications from next room, if xloud is not on. With xloud on, on the other hand, headphones make my ears bleed if over 80% :(

Is there something in the middle? louder speaker, but same loudness on headphones?

Thats a bug in titanium not the rom.

Try using difrent resore modes. .. works somtime. otherwise skipp that app ore make a Update.zip from all apps and flash the zip
[HTC Sensation] msavic123:
I know that, i explained why i want them in system/app. so they can't be uninstalled. if you do a hard reset, you lose what's in /data.

So maybe set permissions to /system/app that /data/app have?

Slow Motion

Hi guys,

I know that other people have looked for this too, and never really found an answer. Where has the slow motion feature in camera gone? I have asked around in this forum and never gotten an answer. I have even wrote to Monarx, and he seemed to hear of it for the first time, that our devices are capable of shooting slow-mo videos. I have a video on my Sensation XE, that i took a year ago, with slow motion enabled (granted it was on sense 3.6). Is there any chance of getting it back? Maybe a mod or something?

Please, I'm desperate, because I don't want to switch back to sense 3.6, cuz it sucks. But I really need to shoot slow-mo videos.

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Sensation] PopaStefanx:
NEVER BEEN SLOW MOTION ON SENSATION, you are wrong, the sensation camera is tooo old for slow motion, i think that you have done it with another phone or you have downloaded from web.

Apks copied to system/app not working

Really, i have a problem with this.

Some apps, like skype.apk, do not work if added to rom zip system.app folder.

It's a perfectly fine apk, installs normally, and works from data/app. But doesn't work from system/app.

There are other apps that work from system/app no problem, but some don't.

I prefer to put my added apps there because they stay after hard reset, and i don't have to install them manually.

I figure it's some permission problem, so i tried fixing permissions, but no luck. I'm now out of ideas, and on my old phones, this worked for EVERY app.

Does anybody know how to fix this?

I have no issues, but is it important to get ifconfig? And are you talking about the Busybox app on the market that updates the busybox? I didnt realize that it had this ifconfig feature.

The devs are aware; many have stated it already. It will be fixed in next update.

Try installing apk as normal to the data partition. Then open Titanium Backup. Find the app in the list, press and hold, select Convert to system app. This will move the app to the system partition. Ive never had any issue using Titanium to do this, so try this method.

It seems Venom SuperSU doesnt work properly with TB and some other app that requires root permission. What I did, install TB uninstall venom SuperSU then install SuperSU from Playstore but there's a little problem it takes time to prompt for Grant Permission.

Make sure you do wipe cache+dalvik after installing supersu from playstore. got some improvement in prompting Grant Permission
[HTC Sensation] sonnhy:
I think it's personal, the difference is minimal.. I don't know because it has been a long time since i was on Sense 3.6, also i've never tried gingerbread, the day after i bought the phone i had already updated to ICS xD
[HTC Sensation] TJD319:
I have no problems with answering a call with the Sense lockscreen. I unlock to accept via Green icon, takes me to the call, shows the normal incoming call screen for a half second and then answers it, as it should.

A possible solution to those facing such problems may be skin related. I am currently using the Sense Five skin from the Venom Hub and it works flawlessly. So try changing your skin and see if that helps.

Ive never used any other skin than the Sense Five one since v1.5.2 and ive never encountered the call issue.

I agree. I have never had an issue with the Sense 4 camera. If there is a difference, to me its minimal. All the pictures i take, i adjust the settings and they look great.

One user a while back reported that the Sense 3.6 camera was much better. But Venom is worth it. Try it out and see for yourself.

Open the apk you want to install as system app using app like 7zip extract the "lib" folder inside it then put the *.so files in your /system/lib/ Then install your apk back to /system/app/ and it should work now.

Optional:

You can then delete the "lib" folder inside the apk before pushing it to system/app after so you would save lesser space.

Do not know if it is the same thing, but have the same kind of problem and this only happens sometimes where it seems the screen is locked up with an incoming call there is no reaction from the screen, so you cannot answer the call, nor the lock ring, nor the the icon for answering or rejecting the call wants to move, all I can do is to switch off the screen after the call has been missed, and on again, and it works again (I actually see this problem has been prevalent since 1.4.1), It is a random error that happens so will be difficult to resolve.

Second Item I have picked up, was that in 1.5.2, there was a nifty option on a missed call where 2 options came up, send text message and remind me that is no longer in 1.6.0

And thirdly, when I am busy and the phone rings, I used to be able to press the menu button while the call was still ringing and could select to send a message, now you press the menu button and nothing happens. (Was still working on 1.5.2) can someone please confirm.

[HTC Sensation] Riyal:
I'm not sure either why sincde on my previous Xperia device I just copy paste everything to system/app and it's working. But when I tried it on my HTC device then I noticed that some 3rd party apps were force closing when copied directly to /system/app/ then I checked it's /data/data and noticed that the libraries weren't copied there so yeah the one I suggested to you was a workaround.

---------- Post added at 06:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:19 PM ----------

RIL stands for Radio Interface Layer. WIFI isn't considered a radio so it doesn't have anything to do with RIL. You can say it's a radio if you can tell that it has frequencies measured as hertz.

It's not a permission(chmod) issue it's how the android version of HTC handles apk. If it's a permission issue then the apk wouldn't have installed at all.

This is just a theory but I think it only read libs if it's inside lib/armeabi*/<libraryfile>.so

some armeabi sub folders are

armeabi

armeabi-v7a

which are processor types

And since you're asking the correct permission for apks it's 0755

[HTC Sensation] msavic123:
Ididn't mean usage permissions (etc/permissions), but permissions folders and files have. I think apk tries to copy libs, but either apk doesn't have permission to copy them, or lib folder doesn't have write permissions.
