Can somebody tell me if i want to use applications in system/app folder of one phone in another , how can i do this?
For example i tried to copy the memo.apk (application) from samsung galaxy s2 to xperia play's system/app folder using root explorer. After rebooting i still could not find the memo applicaiton in my mobile. I also simply tried installing the memo .apk extracted from galaxy s2 in my xperia play but it could install.
Thanks.
That may be because of changed framework...
The system app has more than apk file like odex...

I have a rooted X10 mini pro. I just got a net connection on my mini pro and downloaded apps from Market.
Can anyone please tell me where the applications downloaded from market are stored ? ie- location of the .apk files.
I dont want to back up applications. I just want the base .apk file.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Market installs the apps in /data/app and after installation it removes the temp installation files..
So is there no way to copy those .apk files before they are deleted ????
The apk is in /data/app just backup that one if you have to. The apk in that directory can be used over and over again to install on any phone you want.
I searched through astro but nothing is there in that directory ??????????????
The folder needs to be accessed with root permissions.
Via ADB shell or i believe there is an application called root explorer which does it with UI.
Astro, tools, backup - works for me
Thanks very much.....
One problem with this is, you only get common file names like
downloadfile-1.apk and so on. you wont get the app name on the file name. so everytime you copy it you have to run it and see what app that is.
That is one down matter. other than that its ok!
Hey, just wondering if anybody has managed to port the write and go app from the i9000 to the i9100?
I used it allot on the galaxy s and now its not on the galaxy s 2.
I used a root explorer and bluetoothed the the apk and odex file over to the GS2 but it does not install, not even if i put them in the system/app folder. it goes tgough the install process but comes up when finished with the application not installed error.
Hej,
So I try to push the musicplayer.apk in the system/app folder with terminal, that works as I reboot but it's not installed. but it's in the folder system/app and rw-r-r... do I have to instal it from the system/app folder? or should it automaticly instal it when it reboots?
what am I doing wrong?
grts,
lio
Try installing it normally by transferring apk file to sdcard and installing it using some file explorer, then move the apk from /data/app to /system/app using root explorer and set the permissions to match with those of the other apps

If I try to install it, it says "app not installed". I'll look for a better apk. you know where to find default apps for sgs2? I just like the MusicPlayer.apk from the stockrom. it can sort by folder and it's easy to use!!
and a little question, can I get notifications in my email if someone replies or sends me a message on xda or something. cause I have to check it post by post...
oke found a good musicplayer!!! Mortplayer! it's free and maybe even better...
thanks!!!

I deleted the clock and weather apk of our device believing not to need them any longer. Now I´ve got the quick window case and I do need them again. Could someone pls send me the .apk files, cause I haven´t got a backup of them. :angel: There is a thread at the G2 forum that has all the stock apps to download but those don´t work at my device (uninstallable). Best way perhaps is using apk extractor thx.
Push them to /system/priv-app/ , don't install them via the normal android app installer.
Sent from my D620r [Stock 4.4.2]
installer
I pushed the apk and odex into systems priv-app problem is the installer. i´ve got root, es file explorer with root permissions, busybox... and i tried out "system apps installer" and others but the app isn´t installable. Doesn´t it fit cause its out of the g2 not g2 mini?
