nope.. also having trouble with gmail
Chances are it won't install because there is already a car home installed in system/app after this is uninstalled the Market version should install with no problems
Same with gmail
If you don't actually want to uninstall them, you can also use Root explorer to rename them. I find this method is easier than uninstalling.
Go into system/app, mount r/w, then rename carhomegoogle.apk to carhomegoogle.bak and gmail.apk to gmail.bak. Reboot, then go back into the market and try to reinstall carhome and gmail again. You should get success this time.
I guess this should work with any app installed to /system.
Renaming it .bak works too but after you get a successful install from the Market versions go into system/app and delete the apps you renamed to .bak...or they will just be taking up space
I haven't been able to update SetCPU for a month now. Even with other roms.
You can also mount your /system directory as read/write.
Instructions here:
Mounting /system partition in read-write mode in Android at Black God
Then you can rename or delete the file. I did it this way because I don't have, nor want to shell out the $ for root explorer. Yes, I'm cheap, thank you very much.
I could not get Car Home to uninstall (with pm uninstall), but I was able to get the updated version to install by simply deleting the old one.
Make sure you reboot after deleting it before installing from the market.Code:su
mount -o rw,remount /system
rm /system/app/CarHomeGoogle.apk
This worked like a charm for me.Quote:

If the app pack has been updated just do a standard update.zip install.
