Go to recovery, mount system and then push them via adb. They should work.

u cud plz post that adb push command with all its parameters(if needed - something) .one more thing i have both the apk and the odex from original STock Firmware do i need to push these both or just apk is fine??
Isn't the ROM deodexed ? You should get the apps deodexed before pushing them.
You could give a try and push them both, but I think you'll be ending with a FC.
When you are in recovery mode:
1. Go to Mounts and then click on mount system.
2. With ADB while in recovery mode type:
adb push file.apk /system/app/file.apk (replace file.apk with your app, ex: browser.apk)
Didnt work! All it does it to copy the file there's a difference in date of creation of file mayb thats the reason

I did so with devoid. I took the apps from delta package and I've pushed them through recovery.

[Q] File copy problems - Where did I fail and how to fix

Hello,
I had [JVT]Galaxydroid 2.0 but decided to go back to stock JVT. Now I'm having all kinds of trouble with copying a file to /system/etc.
I flashed stock JVT over Galaxydroid and rooted with speedmod kernel. Wiped caches and wiped user data. Then I installed su+busybox with speedmod's recovery option.
Titanium Backup didn't want to recognize su and busybox but after few tries it worked. Then I tried to copy spn-conf.xml to /system/etc (mounted /system as writeable with ES Root Explorer) and it seems like it copies succesfully, but the filesize is 0 bytes and the file is empty.
Then I tried adb, but it can't mount and doesn't even recognize cp or other commands. Where did I fail and how to fix this?
Thanks in advance

[Q] How do I remove ChargerPluggedIn.ogg? [SOLVED]

Hi,
I'm using the last Envi-ROM based in stock 23.0.1.A.0.167 and I would like to disable the charger plugged in notification so I tried to remove ChargerPluggedIn.ogg from /system/media/audio/ui but it says that it's an only read file and I can't do it. I'm root and I tried with RootExplorer, ES File Explorer, ADB (mv, chmod,...) but I'm not able to change the permissions neither the file nor /system folder.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance
So i just changed the permissions of that file with rom toolbox lite to 777 without issues. I also moved it up a directory without issue. Maybe try that app ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/...+lite&pcampaignid=APPU_EaWoVMe9Nce7mwWlnILYCw)
If you still have issues why don't you backup your phone and redownload envi-rom zip. Open the zip and navigate to the file and delete it. Then install that moded zip file and restore your data from the backup?
You can try to remove this file via file explorer in recovery, like for example aroma explorer.

Nope no good. Could only see /system/bin/ no other directories.
Thanks a lot for your comments. I tried toolbox with the same result as the previous tries. With aroma explorer I can only access to /system/bin/. So no luck for the moment. It seems that the only solution is install again the ROM without the file, but I still looking for other alternatives first.

Deleted /system/vendor folder using ES File Manager Explorer

Hello,
I have Lenovo S720 running on Android 4.0.4 that I recently factory reset because It has only few little internal storage (~1,4 GB), and cannot support many updating apps.
After I do that, whats left in the internal storage is about 500 MB of storage, the rest being taken up by the system (I suppose).
I installed Framaroot to root the device, then System App Uninstaller (ROOT) and ES File Explorer.
First, I try to uninstall any bloatware with the System App Uninstaller -> I didn't get much free internal storage.
Then, I use ES File Explorer to seek, which folder took up the most space.
-> One of the is /system/vendor folder.
-> So, I copied that folder to /mnt/sdcard/backupsys/ (or /sdcard/backupsys/ [little bit forget]), Thinking it would come in handy later.
-> Then, I (foolishly) proceed to delete the folder using the root privileges .
-> It took a moment until all of my app start crashing (including the ES File Explorer!).
-> I turned-off the device, and now it still stuck in the (what I think as) "bootloop" mode.
Fortunately I still can communicate to the phone using adb tools, which I have a little knowledge of. But, the pm and am command cannot function well.
Now, I'm only thinking about moving back the vendor folder from /mnt/sdcard to the /system folder.
But I encounter some problem:
1) I can't (& don't know how to) write to the /system
2) I can't (& don't know how to) read from the /sdcard
- command 'ls' inside this dir returned nothing.
Glad I have the "su" tools from the Framaroot. I searched on the Internet and it seems the problem can be solved with mount tools, but I don't know how.
ls -la tools on root (/) return:
(other dir)
root /system ,,,,,,,,,,other info,,,,,,,
system /sdcard ,,,,,,,,,,other info,,,,,,,
(other dir)
So maybe because I can't gain system account, I can't access the folder and read it...
I try to hard-reset in the recovery mode, but I can't select the options! (I can move the selector with volume up/down) but I cant click it with the power button!
The phone seems to be worse every second.
My main question is: can I recover my phone (copying the vendor folder back) using command tools on my development computer? Or is there any other ways?
I'm willing to install any custom ROM best suited to my phone.
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
If you have a copy of what you deleted or can get it from somewhere and you want to adb push your missing files and folders back to your device then you need to have the files you want to push stored on your PC and push them from there to the device. For instructions on how to use adb read through the thread linked below and go from there.

Can you copy an app to /system/app without restarting??

Hello All,
Not sure where this should go, but I have a generic question about android system apps.
Can you install a system app without having to reboot the phone?
Here is what I'm doing:
1) Remount /system as rw
2) copy myapp.apk into /system/app
3) ?? do something so /system/app/myapp.apk gets picked up and installed without having to reboot the phone
Thanks!
