Don't even worry about it. It's all good Sorry I couldn't help keyhole_s. I removed the .IPK from the above attachment.
man i'm lost i created a user account but i dont have access to the palm apps i'm i really lost?
i'm not using the emulator, i'm not sure how to use it, i'm running vista and the pre is plugged in via usb. I'm using putty if that helps.
I found a minor bug. If you are trying to enter a number such as 54.08, it will not work. The zero will not register after the decimal and it will just output 548.
Sorry but would anyone be able to tell me out to get root permission to delete the app. through command prompts?
This worked for me , I take no responsibility for anyone using it on their phone
read all instructions before proceeding.
Putty into your pre.
When you are in your pre you will see
root@castle:/#
1. To remount the file system as read/write:
mount -o remount,rw /
2. edit the json file
vi /var/usr/palm/applications/org.webosinternals.app.tipcalculatorredux/appinfo.json
use the arrow keys to get to this line .
"id": "org.webosinternals.tipcalculatorredux",^M
you will insert ".app" after "webosinternals"
use the arrow keys to move you cursor to org.webosinternals"cursor here"
3. Press i to enter insert mode.
type .app , make sure you don't have any extra characters
your new line should look like this
"id": "org.webosinternals.app.tipcalculatorredux",^M
4. Press <ESC> to exit insert mode and go into command mode.
5. Save and quit the file that you are editing
:wq
6. You should be back at root@castle:/#
7. Remount the file system as read only
mount -o remount,ro /
8. exit Putty
exit
to delete the app hold the orange button and press the app icon.

actually i found the real issue. the id was incorrect in appinfo.json you need to change ID to org.webosinternals.app.tipcalculatorredux
Thanks.
Note if you make a mistake and need to exit vi without saving the command is
:q!

Ok this is weird I the line shows the .app already included, and I've tried to delete after restarting the phone with the dev on and off. I'm pretty the program is hurting anything but I don't like anything I can't get rid of. Any other ideas?
dont try to delete from the app list in the launcher.
you must delete it by holding down the orange button on the keyboard and pressing on the tip calculator redux icon.
then select delete
make sure that line looks like this
org.webosinternals.app.tipcalculatorredux
it works I just deleted it myself.

Ok after I enter vi /var/usr/palm/applications/org.webosinternals.app.tipcalculatorredux/appinfo.json I’m unable to use the arrow keys or it really doesn’t do anything and I follow the instructions to the T. Any suggestions?
Oh okay sorry i just noticed that the word webosinternal is missing the s at the end of it but I cant edit it...
ok I will re-install the app and do it myself .. i will make any corrections and let you know
maybe this will help, this is what i get:

seems like that means the app is deleted and the file is not there anymore ?
yes i got the same thing only after the app was deleted...
If you still have the app it works fine.
but again I had to hold the orange button and click the app and select delete twice for it to delete.
