Rooted, Lost Youtube App.

Jammy

I've just rooted my Desire, but I managed to lose the Youtube Application.

Does anyone have a link to a place where I can download it?

Thanks :)
 
Open the update.zip of your ROM of choice. Navigate to /system/app. Locate Youtube.apk, open command prompt in your android-sdk/tools folder, and execute:

adb remount
adb push Youtube.apk /system/app

I know I must be making a really stupid mistake >.<

Any help?
 
Uh, you need to put the Youtube.apk you rip out of a ROM into your android-sdk/tools folder first, of course.

Yeah, I'd accidently renamed it >.<

I've decided that I'm going to flash the Froyo ROM with Sense anyway, mainly for the lockscreen and the notifications bar, but hopefully it'll fix this issue too...

Until I can be bothered to do so... I'll stick with 2.1 :)

Thanks for the help anyway :D
