Which comands to use to replace stoch maps with maps(brut)

---

Hi everyone,

i', new here in the forum so i tried to find some answers to my question but so far no luck.

I'm using modaco r3 with ASD+ and i'd like to replace the stock maps.apk withe the maps(brut) with navigation.

Which comands do i have to use in recovery to remove the original maps.apk and install the maps(brut).apk to system/app??

Many thanks

settings > applications > MANAGE APPLICATIONS > uninstall google maps, install maps brut with some sort of filemanager.. estrong, astro, linda file manager or whatever..

I thoud this was unpossible wo system/apps acces.

well i want to push the maps(brut) into system/app... (first delete original maps)

isn't that possible on the desire?

Brut doesn't have to go in /system/app, as I recall. I believe I installed it and the navigation option before I ever had root, so there was never any chance of getting into /system.

If you really do want it to go in /system/app, then you need to:

Boot to recovery (get the green menu screen)
Get into an adb shell
Inside the shell, run "mount /system"
cd /system/app
ls (to find what the relevant apk is)
rm <packagename>.apk
exit
adb push <location of brut.apk> /system/app
Reboot

That should be it. I take no responsibility, have a full nandroid backup, etc etc etc, but that's all you have to do.

thanks

i don't have to unmount system?

I don't think anything else is running that would even require the /system partition, as otherwise it would have mounted it itself, so don't worry about it.

do you really need the [brut] map now that the stock map has navigation?
