Have you tried adding the extension .apk? I personally just browse to my workspace folder, then into my project directory and inside there there should be a bin folder containging the compiled apk. I just use that

thank you

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
you don't rename it.
on computer you extract it, go into system and you see the apk
it won't let you install on phone by just clicking
put on sd card
go to astro, or root manager
move the memo.apk to system/app
done.
you need to extract the folder with winrar winzip whatever then there is a folder with the apk in it. copy it over to your phone under downloads or where ever you want to put it. then install.
edit: just did all that i said and when i tried to install the apk it says "application not installed"
just did what u said, even rebooted, and still don't see it

read the post above.
you have to move the .apk to system/apps
because memo isn't a regular app.
got the same thing. used astro, place the apk in system/apps. nothing happened. rebooted, still nothing. then even tried using the app manager in astro to install it and it says "there is a problem parsing the package"
Link no longer working... could somebody upload it again please ?

I've tried this with MIUI (1.7.22) on a SGS Captivate with no success. I have flashed many roms and installed/sideloaded many apps over the past 10 months. I know I'm doing it right, as I have 'installed' other system apps by moving the apk to /system/apps and fixing permissions and ownership. Has this worked for anyone on a MIUI ROM?
Another related question would be - is there a way to export the notes from the stock memo.apk?

[Q] How can I extract an apk?

For example, I want to extract, say, movie studio and convert it to an apk that I can use in another rom. Does ne1 know how to do this?

if you want to extract the apk file from your tab, then you need to be rooted. if so then you can copy files from /system/app/ folder to sd card using File Manager HD or any other file manager which has root access.

^ This. If the apk is dependent on a framework, be sure to include it in a ROM that has the framework it needs.

downloading a .txt in chrome

Probably a dumb question, but I searched and can't find the answer...I am trying to download a.txt file in chrome and it keeps opening a new window and showing me the contents..I need to remove the .txt extension and put the file in my system directory for a fix on vvm. I would just copy and paste and save it in a new file but I don't know what kind of program to save code in. Thanks for your help

Try downloading in the normal android browser. I'm pretty sure that it will download properly there.

Adobe reader app not running when zipped with custom rom on sgs3

HI,
I downloaded Adobe Reader apk and pasted in the /system/app folder.
Made a backup of the firmware using nandroid.
Copied the adobe Reader apk to /system/bin of the nandroid backup after using Android Kitchen.
Zipped the Rom and flashed it on the sgs3 phone.
All apps in /system/app work except for adobe reader apk.
The message being displayed is "Unfortunately,Adobe Reader has stopped"
Kindly help.
Thanks & Regards,
Milind
If apk has libs files in it. Paste them in /system/libs and set correct permissions
The error message is not coming but the app closes down without any warning

Hey jamal.. thanks for the insight. I tried copying the file in the /system/bin.
The error message is not coming now but theAdobe reader still doesn't open.
Any more clues? is it mandatory for the apk to have an odex file.
Also do we have to make any changes to settings if we have to put it in /system/app folder?
Opps: Copied the .so files in /system/lib

I know it's a Zip file need to unzip it! But there is no apk file inside it neither no instructions where to place the unzipped file ? Coz it didn't work for me just unzipping and keeping it in the device folder.

The same way you change any wallpaper. Long press on the home screen, select the wallpaper icon, then navigate to the folder where you place the image files.
