system/apps
you may want to look in
data/apps
as well
Astro File Manager has a built-in feature of backing up the apks of all your installed apps in your SD card.

search "stock apps" in the development forum, this provide most apps like calendar
simply unzip the palckage, find the apk, and put back in /system/app
How do I put back in /system/app
say read only and very new to this

Download a root explorer app like "Root Explorer" (obviously) or File Expert, go to the system/app folder and give it write permissions (there would be options for that). After that you can copy to that folder. After copying, reboot.
Hi guys,
I have recently make a wrong decision with my Gs2. I tried to use Titanium backup to change All Sharing and Social Hub as a User Application. And that result in these apps disappear from my phone. I tired to put the dlna.apk and social-hub.apk back to the "system/app" while nth new come back after a reboot. I think that's because i miss the odex file related to the apps. As I am using Offical Hong Kong Rom KG2, would somebody like to help me by uploading those files [dlna, social hub apk&odex]
Thanks

I got those APKs from the list you have posted.
And install them by using root explorer
My way to install is to move from sdcard to "/system/app"
I even changed the permission of the apks but still they don come back
thanks!

I never move them before installing - just put them on internal SD and install from there. Try it?

yeah i have tried it and it keeps reproting Application not installed
Try applications>manage applications>clear cache and maybe clear data for those apps if they are there.
Otherwise I'm out of ideas...

Good luck. Don't suppose you've got a full backup via CWM or you'd have reflashed it, right?

I don't think you can install system files with root explorer, you need to flash it through recovery. I was having the same problem and flashing worked for me.

You just push them to the /system/app/ folder and reboot - that's all a recovery zip would do.
Thx Guys!!!!
My finally method was reflash the official rom..... that nearlly kill me as i have to reorder the application icon which take me an hour to finish that....
I don know how to use the recovery method but hope this post would help others who face the same problems.
Btw is there any apps to backup the order of icon in Application page? Rearranging them again is damn horrible if u got tons of apps......

You can sort them alphabetically but you need root, search for touchwizz app sorter you will find it

I dunno what's the problem, the titanium backup update wont install. It is downloaded but at the end of he installation it says there is not enough free space.
But I've still 6Gb of free space! Do you know what's going on?
If you aren't rooted that might be why. Must have root.
i'm rooted, but face this problem too! ):
fix:
Go to data/app folder using root explorer and delete

If you want to run Sony firmware but want it a bit less bloat then try DoggRom or monxDIFIED (I think monx has some removed, but cant see what)

Apk's are program files so if you delete them they don't work. There's a thread somewhere about which system files you can delete safely http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46176101
You can uninstall themes etc normally through the app manager.
It's not like windows where you get an install file that you can delete afterwards.

If you are rooted then just go into /system/apps and delete the ones you want.
Then head to /data and delete the core apps you don't want. Its easy.
Just make sure you know what you're deleting. Lord made a list of ones that can be deleted and those that require other lib files so shouldn't be deleted.
okey dokey. thanks
