humm... worked for me. do you know if maps is installed in data/app or system/app?

 

[jrummy16]

in terminal:

su
mountsys
rm /system/app/Maps.apk
pm uninstall com.google.android.apps.maps
unmountsys
sync

Go to market and install maps 4.4

Nope. TE is stating there's no such directory, to delete.
:-/

how do i know/find out?
ps, they're likely to be where Jrum chose they go....

 

[foxdog]

root explorer, if it is in data/app and not system/app try his instructions above but type data/app instead of system/app

it should be in system/app if it is themed

 

[jrummy16]

ls system/app

(I put Maps.apk in there)

if you installed from market before do
ls data/app

and remove through the same instructions above just do:
rm /data/app/blah-maps-google-blah-1.apk

instead of:

rm /system/app/Maps.apk

but are you sure you typed it right and are in the root directory?

 

[RoyR80]

Well no success. Im themed, from Jrum, us LPP, and astro. (not root explorer)
Using Kangerade i can see that its in "system" when i delete from there it wont install either. :-/

 

[foxdog]

humm... that looks odd. i think you hafta put a space after rm

tried. :-/

 

[foxdog]

are you sure you have maps installed? that should work

 

[RoyR80]

are you sure you have maps installed? that should work

i suppose thats a legit question. but yes, i do, and Navi. i can dump them thru kanger-scripts, but only way i can get it back is thru CW recovery, which i did before i started this adventure.

 

[RoyR80]

Fixed

Problem solved, for me anyways.
A personal thx to JRummy16.

Is it possible that using apps2sd and moving maps to sdcard is problem. I know I did and not still have problems. But root explorer shows stuff in the SDCARD/ areas now, few of them?
