I want to use an apk file from the stock firmware in a custom rom that's based on the the same stock rom so i copied it into system/apps and set permissions and installed it but it tells me that application not installed.
I tried apktool and i used framework apks to start with from the custom rom then i decompiled my desired apk file and built it
then i took it to my phone and tried to install it but "application not installed" was what I got again
so what should i do ? this problem happens alot when taking apk from one rom to another rom .
U mean after push into system then u install it again?

After put on system/app n set the correct permission, JUST REBOOT YOUR PHONE. No need to install again with native installation.

copy home.apk from where to paste into /system/app ?
copy from zip /system/app and paste in your phone's internal memory, /system/app(here). then set permissions and reboot.

Ice_Cream_Pureness_build_14_Service_Pack_1.zip << this zip?
or
Xperia_Ice_Cream_Pureness_build_14.00 << this?
Which one?
if SP1 have home apk than use that. it must be.
but other way if its not then use from rom zip (b14)
thank for help.:good:
i have the same problem but i figured it out already.
in the drawer, sort by own order. then touch the square button at the left of the sort button.
after that touch and hold any application on the first page and move it to the next page.
you will see that an application will move up from below.
it seems that in the drawer there is 5 row of application exist but only 4 row are visible.
i think its the launcher problem.

If they are system apps, you can't just install them.
Needs root.
Grab a root browser, find the file u want to install.
Move or copy it and paste it in system/app
Then "set the permissions" and reboot.
Not all apps work, they might be device specific!

Hello there people!
I've installed a custom rom and would like to add some apps as system apps.
I thought I'd use Root Explorer to do this.
I copied my apps to SD-card, and from there to /system/app/ and changed permissions.
Still, my apps does not come up in my launcher.
Have I done anything wrong?
Thanks for the help!

If the apps you install are not compatible with the android version you're using they won't show up. The quickest way to check this is to doubleclick the .apk on the sd-card and see if it will install.. They will be in your user/app if they do, but you can move them from there to /system/app if you want. If they give an error when installing they're not compatible.

They are compatible with the Androidversion, that much I know.
But they will not install if I doubleclick on them. That didn't work with another rom either, but it worked installing them using Root Explorer.

If it worked they would show up in your launcher.. If they won't install using the 'normal' method, they are not compatible with your phone.

Is it really a difference between MiniCM7 and a ROM based on MiniCM7?
Those apps works on MiniCM7 then, but not on another ROM based on it.

its simple
change permissions of the apk you pasted in /system/app to the following :
r w --
r -- --
r -- --
now reboot your phone, the app will show on your launcher now
