My camera app hasnt worked since 1.5.3 and it really bothers me that i keep getting a FC. I even did a factory reset with no luck so if anyone can send me the file that would be terrific!
you can always just extract it from one of DJ Steves .zips , thats what I did when I noticed mine was missing all of a sudden
Heres you go, place in system/app and set permission the same as other apps in /system
dont forget to my thanks button.

I did everything you told me to do using root explorer. I replaced the camera app with the one you provided in the system/app folder. I'm still getting a forceclose..
I pressed the camera.apk in root explorer and hit install and it said application not installed...

So in order to uninstall it with T.B. you have to hit backup and restore and scroll down to the camera app and uninstall? i did that and i uploaded the new .apk to my sd card and it wont let me uninstall from there. I tried moving it to system/app but it says "You cannot paste here because the file system is read-only" so i go to change the permissions of the .apk but the permissions wont save...
deleted my camera app a few days ago
in root explorer, go to root folder(back until you cant go back anymore),
press mount r/w, which mounts the system read/write,
then move the apk to system/app and set permissions the same as other apps in system/app
I set mine to read write execute for everyone
should be good to go after install if not reboot to be sure
also test cam and videocam and take a photo and video to test
let us know if this works

Nice call on the mount r/w. I move it to /system/app/ and set the permissions as the other apps. Then when i tried to install inside of root explorer it says installing..Application not installed. So i rebooted it and the camera app showed up AND IT WAS WORKING WITH CAMERA AND VIDEO!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH its been bugging me forever!! You sir just made my day!
quite simple actually. glad I could help.
cheers.

Hey nezzy.
You mean..."Using Root Explorer, navigate to /system, press the Mount R/W button, find build.prop, long press on it and select "Open in Text Editor"."?
Root explorer is required. From Android market and usually most file managers start on your sd card soooo..
Tap the go up 1 level icon and try looking in the system folder then.
You will find the build.prop file right at the bottom of the tree.

Greetings...I decided to create this thread to ask this question since the original thread was related to a different question...
A previous thread suggested to select mount r/w to enable read/write using Root Explorer...
I have ES File Explorer installed...Is that the same as Root Explorer?...
I select ES File Explorer and I can position myself on either /, /root, /system
directories but I don't see where I can select mount r/w to enable read write....
Sorry for the confusion, but I'd really like to get this resolved...
Thank you...
In ES file explorer go to settings scroll down, at the end you will see Root Settings with 2 options Root explorer and Mount File System check both.

Veronica(lavero.burgos) thank you very, very much!...Much appreciated...
I'm almost done...I've completed steps 1 - 3 below and saved it...
How do I complete step #4?...
(Again, THANK YOU very much!)...
___________________________________________________________
Method 1: Using Root Explorer
1. Set /system to read-write
2. open the file /system/bin/clrbootcount.sh in text editor
3. Add the following line at the bottom:
Code:
setprop persist.service.mount.umsauto 0
4. Save and set permissions to 755 (All Read, Top Write, All Execute)
In ES file explorer long press the file you want to change permissions, scroll down and select properties from the list. A window will pop up then change it like this:
User: check read, write and execute
Group: check read and execute
Other: check read and execute

That did it!...Many thanks again lavero.burgos...
Just one thing I want to point out - I did not see "OWNER" in the list, but "Other" instead...Does that sound right?...
So, this is how I updated the file:
User: Read, Execute
Group: Read, Execute
Other: Read, Write, Execute
Thank you...
Yeah that's fine sorry got confused with RT lol, just one thing User should be write permission and not "Other"

Did you set ES FileManager's "Settings->Root Explorer->Mount R/W"?

My omission: it's "Settings->Tools->Root Explorer->Mount R/W"
Depending on your ROM build version, if you don't see "Settings" menu button for ES File Manager, you'd need to add it (the "three vertical dots" button) to the homescreen navigation bar via the tablet's main "Settings->System->Buttons and Layout".
I managed to delete it..
I had to install es f explorer 1.5 Cupcake.. that other es f expl. Probably doesnt support that..

Assuming your NT is rooted or running CM, the "Mount R/W" option is on the "Root Explorer" menu.

Thank you so much! That really helped.
Right now I'm running sense 5 android 4.3 and i was having the same binary problems. I installed cwm superuser which has been working for me. however when i try to set root permissions in es file explorer superuser pops up, i allow access then es explorer says operation failed, can not work on your phone????? which boggles my mind since i just allowed access.. i want to be able to rewrite so i can change the font. i did change the font, and when i hot reboot the phone, i see the font i want, but when i reboot the phone fully, it doesn't remember it and goes back to stock font... i don't know what to do... besides never let my phone die or shut off, ha

You should post your question in forums dedicated to your particular phone. The quoted instructions in this thread & forum were validated for the Nook Tablet and might not work the same way on other devices.
I rooted my tablet and installed Root Explorer and Super User, i want edit build.prop but when i save and get problem "Error occurred when trying to save the file".
I tried with ES File Expolre Manager, but it's still unsuccessful. I move to SD card and edited successful and move to back, it's not change.
Please help me to change it ! Thanks everyone
You have to remount /system for write access. Default is read only.
Simply follow this guide:
"Once downloaded and installed, Open the
application and hit Menu, then tap "Settings",
this will bring you to the apps Settings Menu.
Once in the Settings Menu, scroll all the way
down to Root Settings . In Root Settings,
"check" Root Explorer and Mount File System"

If you're still having problems with this, I installed fx file explorer and fx file explorer (root add-on) apps from the play store. The apps were created by NextApp, Inc. The fx file explorer has a lock icon that you click on in the upper right corner that will give r/w capabilities necessary to save any changes.
The root setting is now in the menu. Select Root Explorer and you can set the correct permission

You need to set system to r/w not r/o use root explorer, or in titanium long press the app and tap convert to system app

Can you explain that? I attached the Permissions and Owner, but doesn't appear.
In root explorer find apk you want to move and long press then copy.
Navigate to system>apps and mount as r/w
Then if replacing existing application rename this to app.bak otherwise just paste the app
Change apps permissions to read:everyone write:user only execute no one then tap save. Then reboot your phone and everything should be good
Otherwise in titanium backup (a must have for custom rom users) long press on the app and tap convert to system app
