Launch an Application from Terminal

You dont need to know the location of the app on the phone. However you need to know the package name (application name) and various activities in the app. Basically if you intend to just launch the app then you need yo know the main activity that triggers the application to start. So suppose that your package name is, com.mozilla.firefox and the start activity is say MainActivity. Then you can launch the app from terminal with su privilage with following command,

am start -n com.mozilla.firefox/.MainActivity

Thats it.

Coming to knowing the package name for your application, use

pm list packages

And if you want know the location of the apk, use

pk list packages -f

And if you intend to know names of the third party apps installed only use

pm list packages -3 -f

Now to know various activities in an app, see the AndroidManifest.xml. You will see names of activities. Most probably the first activity is the start activity ie., MainActivity.

To see the contents of androidManifest.xml you need to extract it from apk file. Online tools are available to do so.

Hope this helps.:):)

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obededom:
I've heard alot of grumbling in regards to kinks in the Hero's hardware, in regards to battery life, sms problems, memory leaks, etc.

I havent had any of those problems in my Hero and I was wondering if I have a problem free Hero, or it's just not a huge deal to me.

I have the 1.5 firmware

Kernel Version is 2.6-27-533ce29d

build number is 1.29.651.1 CL69164 release-keys

software: 1.29.651.1

hardware: 0002

I live in the US and it is branded "with Google" on the back.

either way, I'm looking forward to the Eclair update soon.

thanks, I'm a total noob to this phone and Android :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 27s:
I believe you have the same phone as everyone else. I have the same specs you have, but I think the 1.29 have the battery fix, but don't quote me. I had the "with out google" backplate on my first phone, but that fubar'ed on me.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john.lorenzsonn:
"With Google" has been confirmed to be strictly cosmetic. The battery issues are caused by a bug in the Sprint Hero's messaging app; current workaround is to use Handcent or ChompSMS instead and turn off notifications for the built-in Messaging app.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knx2:
I have something different. No with google. No Voice control thing on google search..

Build Number is: 1.22.651.1 146733 CL62456

I had this phone before release... and of course Sprint has no idea how to update.

Buona sera a tutti voi, spero che qualcuno di voi possa aiutarmi. Ieri ho provato la rom tra cui iolITA 3.3 con wm6.1 e con wm6.5 ho notato un problema nelle telefonate in uscita. Se effettuo una chiamata in uscita da mio touch dual non sento gli squilli (non bussa). Il telefono che riceve la chiamata squilla, ma rispondendo non si sente nulla! Ho provato anche a ripristinare la rom originale della TIM, ma sempre lo stesso problema. Help me!

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hksmr2:
Hi,

Let me say out of all the WM phones I used over the pass years, this is the best of the best. I love everything about this phone. The only thing I dislike is the lagging of the GPS, I used, Garmin and IGuidance 4.0 and there is at least a few second delay in making turns. I even used the tweaks, to disable GPS logging etc. and still not much improvement. Can any one help. Thanks in advance, you guys rock.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hksmr2:
no one has any ideas on how to fix this? THanks
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] THE-COPS:
You mean external GPS ? Or built-in GPS? I'm on Verizon and using the built-in gps there is very little if any, lag.

Try running QuickGPS if you haven't already. It comes preinstalled on the Sprint Touch Pro2.

I know this is an old thread, but I'd like to share what fixed my problem in case others are still having this problem with GPS lag.

I tried everything people suggested, modifying the registry, turning off logging, etc.

I flashed the radio rom to the latest Sprint Radio. The VZW radio was what was causing my GPS lag problem. I had a similar issue back when I had my touch diamond too. a new radio flash fixed things.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
What version of the radio did you install? Are you saying the Lag is completely gone(no delay any more) ????

This and the FM radio, would make it one of my best phones yet.... (I had my titan maxed out when I had it)

[General Questions and Answers] itesla:
I've been here a few years since getting 8125 Wizard (WM5). I've never updated my ROM or Radio ROM. What are the reasons for doing this? The obvious one to me is to go from WM5 to Wm6.x. Other than that, why? It doesn't seem like WM6.x has much to offer over WM5 as far as that goes. The apps people develop here are what I mostly use.

I see some ROM threads that talk about having certain apps or themes... why update a ROM to get a new app or theme?

Then for Radio ROM's... what is different or better bewtween various versions? Where do they come from?

Thanks :-)
[General Questions and Answers] AngryNil:
As far as I know, Radio upgrades can affect / improve reception.

Custom ROMs often get rid of annoying apps that are added to original ROMs by carriers. In your case, upgrading to WM6.x is actually a 'big' thing - many newer apps will probably not look to support WM5 anymore.
[General Questions and Answers] thesecondsfade:
Hi everyone,

I'm having a problem with my WM6.1 voicemail indicator. First, it wouldn't go away even though there were no voicemails. Then I did a registry edit to reset the count to 0 (HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Line1\Unread\Count = 0).

Now when I leave myself a voicemail from a landline, the notification won't show up. I did a soft reset and it did find the voicemail and do the notification as it should have. Then when I deleted the voicemail, it wouldn't go away again. Is there a setting that I don't have set right or something? I'm running Wisbar Advance 3 if that makes a difference but the voicemail won't show up even when I'm not running Wisbar Advance.

Is there a way to write a Mortscript to check with the server for the voicmail count at 5 minute intervals or something like that?

Thanks for you help,

-David

217 views and not a single reply? Is it a stupid question? No one has ever encountered that problem?! :confused:
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] melaskalany:
I found a fix!

Navigate to the following reg key:

[HKLM]\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\iGO8

Delete the value:

Enabled_save [DWord] =1

Now you can have an iGo8 Today plugin (the one automatically created during the installation or a manually-added-to-the-registry one) without impacting Panel Manager in any way. I tried enabling all of plugins (Windows Live, Live Search, Skyfire, Skype, etc...) and the phone has been working well for 6 days now. Cheers!
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] melaskalany:
Problem prevails!

The problem still exists! Deleting a registry entry at:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\iGO8

Flags[DWORD]=1

Solves the problem for a while. However, the entry is recreated and the flag is set to 0. After a while it is set to 1 and Panel Manager crashes! This is seriously driving me crazy!

I couldn't find anything on this, maybe I wasn't searching correctly. If I missed the fix somewhere, i apologize in advance.

I'm running the HTC WM 6.5 rom with a few reg tweaks and every night since Nov. 2, 2009 [DST], the clock on the lockscreen gets stuck at 00:00 and won't advance to 00:01. It won't even change until I restart my phone. This is the T-Mobile USA TP2, if that would make any difference. I'm not sure I've messed with any of the reg files that have to do with the clock, so I'm not sure why this is happening.

I also tried downloading the fix ".cab" from Micro$haft and for some reason, I couldn't send it through bluetooth from my PowerBook G4 and my TP2. So then I tried downloading it in the mobile IE browser. No go. It downloaded it as a .tsk file, which, aas you may or may not know, is a WM theme file.

Any help would be greatly appreciated to fix this strange quirk.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] myrandex:
connect the phone to the computer and select 'storage card' as access type on the menu that pops up on the phone then just copy & paste it over there (if your pbook supports copy & paste...sry just had to throw it in after ur microshaft comment :P ).

As for the clock, are you running a custom rom at all? If not, then do it, if so, then revert from it lol. I have no idea on that but I don't have that problem at all. Maybe try turning off touchflow and then turning it back on once the problem has occurred (go to settings -> all settings -> today -> items -> uncheck touchflow or sense, depending on rom, hit ok and exit, then repeat the steps to turn it back on.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] chasejones8:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fl3xo:
Hello all, after some problems with app2sd i reinstalled my apps via a simply backup of my apk files in system/sd/app.

Anyway I was unable to restore some apps, in particular those that had a .zip extension and not an .apk extension. The problem is that Market/Download controls in such situation are disabled, so i can't uninstall/reinstall nothing.

Waiting some days for the upgrade of each app, i was able to restore all apps meno one. The application is the free SunMoon (com.jw.SunMoon).

I 've tried to:

sign com.jw.SunMoon.zip to try a reinstall but adb install com.jw.SunMoon.apk returns Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]

delete /system/sd/app/com.jw.SunMoon.zip

delete the directory /data/data/com.jw.SunMoon

edit /data/system/packages.xml removing all entry for com.jw.SunMoon

But nothing changed, i'm unable to reinstall SunMoon via Market so far.

Any ideas????

Anyway the Market app continues to be blocked, i can't uninstall, install or reinstall SunMoon. The only one thing that unblock the market app is an application upgrade, so i can push the upgrade button and install a new copy.

I don't know how to eventually use the com.jw.SunMoon.zip i backupped from /system/sd/app, android tell me it's unsigned (Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES]), but trying to sign and install, will return Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT] .

I'm having this exact same issue, and it's happened to me every time I use Backup for Root Users. If I restore just the APKs, nothing ending in .zip gets restored. If I also restore the Market db (so I can get updates), I get the same thing you got, with disabled Open and Uninstall buttons in the Market. I know I have no references to any of the apps anywheres. Specifically, I'm trying to restore Twidgit Lite. Anybody have any answers?

Just in case anyone's curious, I fixed the problem. Copy /data/data/com.android.vending/databases/assets.db to my computer, then open it with a sqlite client. Search in the assets10 table for the row where package_name matches one of the previously mentioned problem applications, then update the row by changing the state field to 'UNINSTALLED'. Push the assets.db file back to its original location, and either reboot or force close the Market app (using Taskiller or what have you). When you reopen Market, the problem apps will now allow installation.

Help!!! I had to dismantle my Polaris in order to replace the little plastic piece that keeps the SD Card slot closed to avoid the dust.

When I opened the case, the SIM card ribbon got disconnected, but I put it back tightly into the slot again before closing it again.

When I booted up, it said SIM Card is missing. It's like hell! I opened lots of times and nothing works. The SIM slot appears to have a GND connection to the main board and it comes with a little piece like a pillow that sits between the two pieces (SIM slot and main board). It makes contact when you close the case, and I think it's alright.

What can I do? Did somebody have the same problem? Any technician here?

:(
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] afsc:
I had the same problem, I had to buy a new sim reader, and replace it, you probably damaged the flat cable. I replaced it and now it's ok.

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] SuperJMN:
Hello! Thanks for your answer. I'm alone with this...

I've just ordered a SIM reader to the website you told me above. But I'm worried about having bought it, because I actually don't know whether the SIM reader is broken or not. Is there any way to know if it's the data cable or the GND signal?

It's so strange...! I just opened the case, and the ribbon got out, but I didn't force it. Is it so weak?
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] afsc:
Is I believe it's very weak, i Didn't force it either, I believe you can check the continuity of the contacts on the sim reader to the end of the flat cable. mine was broken, but i didn't know how, I was very carefuller.

Good luck
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] SuperJMN:
Thanks a lot! I think my cable is fine, not much straight, but intact. I contacted a technical support service that fixed my Polaris a few months ago, and they say it's pretty common to have a problem like ours. The guy there told me that it's sometimes the socket that fails, due to an abrupt move while removing the upper case.

For the moment, I cross my fingers until I receive the new SIM reader. I know how to install it, but... if it's the socket what is broken, so long, Polaris :(
