Hi guys,
I've accidentally deleted the musicplayer.apk from my girlfriend's phone (using titanium backup) - i forgot she doesn't have power amp pro.
Anyway, I tried several ways of installing the apk but it always failed. I've tried to extract the apk from the rom zip file but it just wouldn't install. I've also tried putting it in system/app and rebooting but it doesn't show up.
I hope someone can help me out here. Thanks!
P.S. I'm sorry if this has been covered before.. My search didn't come up with any solution.
Also, I'm not looking for a "install third party app" soliton. Thanks.

Put it in /system/app then set the permissions to rw-r-r. Reboot device.

Thanks for the help. I haven't had the opportunity to try this, but I've found an alternative apk that installs well.

Hi.
I wanted to install system apk from samsung galaxy on my XPlay.
1. when i installed it traditionally i got "app is not installed" or similar.
2. when i moved it to system/app, gave permission and restarted, it still wasnt in app drawer.
Here is my question: what i do wrong? And/or is any other (better/easier) method?
Thx for answers...

Ive had this problem before, but usually it works when I push to system/app, set permissions and reboot. But I think maybe the app just isn't compatible with your phone. What kind of apk is it?
SMemo.apk from galaxy note. Permissions dont work, maybe here is another way?
However i was looking inside apk and i couldnt find anything about phone model and/or resolution to change...

I recently installed CyanogenMod 9 on my (international) Samsung Galaxy Note. However, I loved the calendar app that came with the original ROM on my Note called S Planner. I found the extracted .apk of this app, but if I try to install it, it says 'Application not installed. An existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed'. I tried several methods I found using Google, but none worked. I hate to make another thread on these forums, but could anyone help me with this?
Please bear in mind I'm pretty much a n00b.
I have the same desire. I have a rooted sgh-i717 Note on which I'm running an AOSP 4.1 ROM. I'd really like to install the S-Planner App. I tried a similar apk file and got the same result.
First using any root explorer move you modified s planner app to your sd card now copy and paste the original s planner app to root>system>app
Now make the permissions
R w _
R_ _
R_ _
Now reboot your s planner will install
we all should be polite enough to press thanks for anyone who helped US.
The problem is, there is no original .apk of this app in the /system/app folder.
Ok than just put whatever app yo want to install in system>app
And make the permission
And reboot
It will install.
Many times i have installed apps like this which don't install manually..

It didn't. I really don't know what I did wrong though...
I tried this method several times with Astro File Manager et File Manager (Super Manager)
but the application does not install.
I've done all permissions.
I have a Galaxy Note 1 GT-N7000 with Jelly Bean 4.1.2
Can you help me?
Thank you.
Hi all, I'm trying to find an .apk on my sg2, to back it up & possibly instal it on another droid.
I understand I need to locate the .apk file, however, is this the only file I need to locate or are there other associated files I need to locate as well (possible authorisations etc) to allow the .apk to work once backed up &/or to instal and have full functionality on another droid?
Also, where will I find the file(s) location?
I currently have 'root explorer' installed.
Thanks in advance

Search for apk in /data/app and its data in /data/data/.
Ex.:
apk - /data/app/pl.aqurat.automapa.apk
data of the app - /data/data/pl.aqurat.automapa

the apks will install fine. You don't need any other authorisation file for that.
All the apk for the apps currently installed on your phone will be in (system root)/data/app
Copy all the apk files in that location to a safe place on your phone. Then transfer them to the other phone. Install them as normal apk. They will all install fine.
Problem solved.

Hi there, I have a rooted Samsung s6102 and I unistalled the google play store using linktosd thinking I can reinstall it on memory Card,
but then I downloaded it and tried to install it. it installed but on opening it errors "force Close"
I have tried many versions of it and it still doesnt work comes up with error "Force Clsose"
I think it has to be installed in system. I don't know how to do this.
In the meantime I have reset factory settings but still no sign of google play. I'm afraid link2sd must have deleted the relevant files. I also wiped cash memory but.........
I would really appreciate some help on this matter. It is depressing me you know imposed on my mind....
! Please help! Thank you
If you deleted the Vending.apk from /system/app/ then you need that file and you need to put it there. Same procedure if you deleted it from /data/app Then reboot and it should fix your problem.

Hi Guys, This is my first thread here. I'm new to Android and flashing custom ROM's. I've recently bought Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-i9300 (International version). I used Siyah kernel for Dual-Booting FoxHound along with Stock ROM. I really liked FoxHound because of improved performance, beats audio etc. I've decided to flash FoxHound as only ROM on my device but I fear that it will also remove the stock samsung apps which I really find useful.
S Memo
S Suggest
S Planner
Is there any way to get these apps on FoxHound? Sorry I couldn't find any similar post here that's why I'm asking
You could use root explorer, copy them to your sdcard and install on your new rom. Should work fine if they don't have any other dependancies.

you need to copy them to /system/app
as long as it's a Sammy ROM, it should work
I tried that but when I copy SMemo files to system/apps using root explorer it says that the files are copied successfully but they don't... Any solution for this I guess it has something to do with the permissions

Still Not Working...
The SMemo.apk's permissions are (rw-rw-r) and to move it to system/apps the permissions should be (rw-r-r). When I change the permissions they still look unchanged...
Are you sure you've given root access to root explorer...try changing the permissions with chmod command.

I've edited their permission to rw--r--r (0644) but the apps says 'Changing Permissions was not successful. Please note that some file systems do not allow permission changes.'
Update: Thank you guys, I've figured it out and now its working. Can you please tell me After moving S Memo files to System/apps should i install them manually?
Our pleasure..yeah you should..

After moving S Memo.apk to system/apps I did a reboot and the app was installed automatically. When I open app it functions normally but after a few seconds it freezes and then a pop up says 'Unfortunately SMemo has stopped working'. This happens every time Any Fix?

I was saying that launching the apk manually won't install it.
Try clearing its data and make sure it's from the same firmware version

I downloaded S Memo apk for 4.1.2 JellyBean from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1969991 and that worked like charm. Thanks
I'm also looking for Stock Music Player, I downloaded apk from same link but it is not working. Again it gives a pop up saying 'Unfortunately Music player has stopped'. I tried clearing data several times but no luck. Any solution?
