    Removing android apk

    by Alex Benko, 2by2host

    Removing android apk

    These are the easy steps to remove any .apk file from an Android device.

    The way a file system on an micro SD card is mounted is normally as read-only. This is done because your manufacturer has contracts to promote the software and vice versa. In addition all files on the card have “root” permissions, so if you don't have a rooted device, it's not easy to remove these. You might see tons of apps that you will not need taking up valuable space on your card. So we are presenting you with a couple of ways to remove the .apk files from your card.

    Geeky way to remove .apk files from your Android device:

    1. Root your device (this will void the warranty but you can always go back to being unrooted). The easiest way to root your device is to use SuperOneClick software. You can Google it or use one of our articles that describe it.
    2. Once you have an rooted device you can install a “Terminal Emulator” app (free from Android Market) and run “su” command from the shell. It will ask you if you'd like to run that command with “root” permissions and once you confirm it you will be logged in with “root” permissions.
    3. Next you'll need another free program called “mount /system (rw/ro) (free from Android Market). Install and run it. You will see two buttons “Mount r/o” and “Mount r/w”. The latter will remount the flash card with write permissions.
    4. Now go back to the “Terminal Emulator”. “cd” to /system/app directory and run “rm appname” (you can use partial name like app*, so that you wouldn't have to type in the full name).

    This will remove the unwanted .apk file

    Whimpy way to remove .apk files from your Android device:

    1. Get micro SD card reader ($10 from Amazon), stick your card into it and remove the necessary files from your PC or Mac

    This will remove the unwanted .apk file

    Our choice of the best packages to run your Android compatible site is either our managed shared hosting or GoEasy plan Load up your Android site tool to either and you're ready to go. Most of people recommend these as a perfect platform for an Android compatible site.

    How to enable IE developer toolbar

    Are you developer or even a web studio? Switch your website(s) to our high quality professional web hosting or even earn money by referring customers to us.

    Sometimes when debugging and developing web pages in IE we spend a lot of time refreshing the page to see the changes. To help us debug the pages Microsoft created a toolbar plug-in, very similar to BugZilla for FireFox.

    These are the steps you need to install the toolbar:

    • Download IE Toolbar
    • Run the downloaded file
    • Restart Internet Explorer
    • You'll notice the icon in the IE userbar

    Note for IE8 users

    Please ignore the outlined steps above. You already have this toolbar built-in into your IE8. Just press F12!

    Proxy server could not handle the request

    Proxy server could not handle the request GET/POST message

    Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request POST ...
Reason: Error reading from remote server

    Usually you can see this error message on the websites hosted with overselling hosting providers. Their servers are always overloaded by a huge number of websites, so that they just stop responding to user's browser requests.

    Solutions:

    1. A. Switch to a decent hosting provider like 2by2host.com
    2. B. Move to a fully managed hosting package, like managed shared hosting at 2by2host.com

    Mailman config file location

    Mailman config file location:
    /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py
    /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/Mailman/defaults.py

    Fantastico is not installed at the default location

    Fantastico is not installed at the default location

    Once upon a time we had to see that strange message:

    Fantastico is not installed at the default location /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/fantastico. Either move the Fantastico directory from it's current location to /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/fantastico OR enable ioncube loaders in WHM -> Tweak settings

    Solution:

    Normally doing a /scripts/makecpphp fixes this.

    What I did is a little trick 🙂

    In WHM, I went to:

    Main >> Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings

    Under the PHP section for:

    Loader to use for internal cPanel PHP (Use oldsourceguardian for version 1.x
    and 2.x)

    I selected sourceguardian, then reloaded the page and selected ioncube instead
    again, and clicked on save.
