So I accidentally uninstalled Browser 2.2 (the default browser that comes with Froyo) using titanium backup. Is this a critical app? If so, how do I get it back again?
thanks
Is it not the internet browser.
Get the ROM your using on your PC/lappy, open using winzip or similar. Look in system/app. Transfer to phone, install using a file manager (i.e Astro).

after flashing nonsensikal 10.1 i noticed a graphic glitch in the browser, so i removed it with root explorer and replaced it with one from a previous version. the browser would not show up in the app drawer. i went back to it in the system/app folder and clicked it, installed it (it actually said it installed surprisingly) and tried again, with no luck. removed it, tried again with browser from current version, same effect. its not there.. the apk is in system/app, but browser wont show in app drawer..
i prefer stock broswer to others in the market.. please help me fix!
Hi
I used Sgs tools to do a camera hack and now my camera is screwed always force closes...
I have my old cmeras apk but I can't install it wouldn't let me.
Do I have to uninstall the order camera so I can install this?
And how?

If you can mount your sd card to your computer, then go to /system/app these are your system file apps. You can manually put the .apk file in there, but then you have to use something like Androzip to actually install (just finding it in /system/app and clicking on it will install it, or use the default Files app.)
Duddeee! Thanks in did what you said but with root explorer and now everhthings fine. I thanks man!

Attached is the Froyo Leak / DL30 - fully debinged Browser.
1. No default bookmarks.
2. VZW bookmarks can be deleted
3. Search via URL uses Google
4. http://www.google.com is the default homepage

To install ...
Method 1 - Root Explorer
Backup the existing /system/app/Browser.apk or rename it
Copy the attached Browser.apk file to your phone's SD card
Copy Browser.apk from your SD card to /system/app using Root Explorer
Reboot your phone.
Note : You made need to clean your dalvik cache
This worked for me ... but others have not been able to do this successfully.
Method 2 - ADB
With USB debugging enabled, and your phone rooted, backup your existing Browser.apk
Push the new apk.
Reboot
Method 3 - CWM
Place DeBingedBrowserCWM.zip on the root of your SD card.
Boot into CWM
Install the update
Reboot.
Many thanks to chopper the dog for this package !
To verify URL search ...
Enter search terms for the URL .... verify it goes to Google to search
To verify Bookmark deletion ...
Launch the browser
Click on the bookmark icon
Long press on VZW bookmark
Scroll and select "Delete bookmark" ... verify that you get a message that Bookmark <name> will be deleted.
Click OK

Works!
Confirmed working google search. gj.
If anyone wants the browser setting to pick the default search engine to work... I think it's a different question... But I'm glad I have google again.
I decompiled the DL30 browser apk earlier this morning... And find that the code to force bing was much easier to find than earlier versions. Looks like you took out the default bookmarks, and changed the search string? Anything else out of my curiosity.
The code also wouldn't allow deleting two existing Verizon bookmarks.
If the bookmark was named "VZW Home" or "My Verizon" or the URL was "http://converge.vzwwap.com/" or "https://mobile.vzw.com/sspostmw/forms/myacc.jsp" it wouldn't allow deletion.

...Now with Chrome Icon
This is the same de-binged browser with the Chrome Icon
Thanks for the post.
Hmmm... Can't seem to get it to work. Copied the original to sdcard for backup then using root explorer deleted original and copied debinged to system/app and rebooted and cleaned dalvik but still uses bing and can't delete bookmarks.

Try clearing the application data. settings -> applications -> manage applications.
This will also clear any bookmarks/history you have.

Ok so I can't get it to work at all. Followed OP to a tee and the original Browser.apk says it is deleted in root explorer but when I copy the debinged named as Browser.apk it reverts back to the original no matter what... Stumped on this one...

Thanks for this. But I always find it easier to push files or make a cwm zip (root explorer is not the most reliable). But flash the below file via cwm no wipe is needed plus your existing bookmarks will remain and I was able to delete those vzw links right away. It sucked to have a scrollable widget and seeing the vzw **** there.
@OP update your first post/title with this.
good day.
Thanks Chopper the CWM flash worked perfectly. Url search goes straight to Google and bookmarks deleted. One issue I did notice was even with Google set as homepage and all data history etc cleared when reopening the browser it opens to Google but if you hit the back key it goes to that converge.vzw site even with history and data cleared and bookmark deleted any idea?

What is the exact full URL you see ?
-Doug
@doug it was the vzw homepage but I was able to just randomly eliminating it by clearing data and cache a fourth time. Didn't do anything different or additional and it works perfect now... go figure

If I try to download files to my browser through pretty much any share site, I either get download failed or a 1kb htm file. I know the solution to this is to install opera browser. Problem is, I like the stock browser especially now that its all synced up with my Google account. I have tried astro file manager (option to allow browser downloads and that didn't work either.
If the astro file manager thing didn't work maybe try Download All Files from the Play Store. And if that doesn't you could try a modded browser such as ICS Browser+, also in the Play Store.

more info required as which ROM are you on... GB/ICS...
although i dont think it makes a difference...
If on ICS stock brower... go to menu ...settings..advanced... default storage...
see if its selected to phone...(memory card only if you have one slotted in the phone)
i just checked a download from www.filehippo.com
works for me...
i dont think you need to use any other browser or app to download stuff...
I tried to install aosp browser which is only supported for nexus devices, And now i ended up without my stock browser, bcs installing of aosp required to unninstall my old browser first. And yes it seems im an idiot... I tried to update firmware, to reinstall stock browser, but it fails bcs of browser.apk missing.

I hope somobody smarter than me, can help me with this.

SOLVED.After hours and hours searching the internet i finally found and downloaded original stock rom, in dedex format, and then extracted browser.apk from it. After that i put broswser.apk into sys folder of phone(via Root explorer) and set appropriate permissions , so that they look alike other's app's permissions (rw-r-r in this case), then i rebooted my phone and Voila everything was fine, my old stock browser was back <3. I just needed to dload and install ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter_blackhand1001.apk from this thread tnx to blackhand1001, so i could sync my boomarks from PC Chrome to stock browser on my phone.
Can u help me? I rooted my pap 5044, and deleted stock apps, but now that update came, i cant apply i cant install it. With 1.0.42 update, it also updates stock apps which i deleted. What can i do, how can i get those deleted aps?
