Is there a difference between apk files downloaded as an installer file and the apk files i find in my system/app folder?
The reason I ask is this:
I have both wired and wireless tether on "ROM a" and not wired tether on "ROM b". I want to copy the apk for wired tether out of my system/app folder in "a" onto my sd card so that I can install it on "b". Hopefully I could then flash "ROM b"(that doesn't already have the app) and navigate to the sd card with root explorer and click the apk, and have it install the app.
Should work right?
Or are there different kinds of apk files, ones that contain an installer and ones that just act as an application?
Thanks!
I believe that you could store the apk on the SD card, wipe and flash the new Rom, and then yes, use root explorer (be sure to remember and set correct permissions, have root explorer in r/w mode, and place the file back in system/apps) and then reboot. SHOULD work, but as always I'd suggest doing a NAND backup first, in case this doesn't work. If it doesn't, try using adb to push the file to system/apps.

Hi! I uninstalled "Gallery" after i made a .apk backup, but when i try to install again the galler it said "Application not installed". What can i do? i rly need to install the default gallery.
your permission may not be properly reset.
You have to push it to the system/app folder instead of installing it like usual. Try using root explorer to mount system as r/w (top right corner of root explorer) and copy the .apk into the folder system/app and reboot.

If it doesn't work, then goto system/app and click-install the apk like any normal apk. (Caution-this can be dangerous).
Using root explorer, make sure the permissions are as follows
xx0
xx0
xx0
Alternatively, flash this zip through cwm recovery.

Hey Guys
I`m having problems with copy a file to system/framework.
There is always an error that tells me it is just readable and i`m not allowed to copy the file there.
Help please
Change atribution; files must be RW. Use root explorer; its easy.
Using Root Explorer , and you can change the R/O to R/W just one click.
you can also get ES File Explorer to do so if you like ES.
Hey. I have a question about moving files after rooting, installed supersu allready and give root browser permissions in supersu.
I can't find another thread on this.
I have a problem with moving a apk file from downloads/direct to system/priv-app.
It says after i'm trying to moved it "failed operations" and it seems like it's the only directory i can't move files to.
I have read that the files or directory should have some special permissions, but i'am sure that the criteria are met.
Also when i go to supersu to see logfiles on the "action" it says that i need supersu pro to move that files. But will it works or what should i do to get this to work?
Sorry for my english.
hope you understand.
move files to one directory to another
I found the problem.
In system directory the permissions is only to r/o.
But theres is a problem more. When i try to mount r/w in root explorer nothing is happening?
I copied some file via es file explorer in root directory, files were copied successfully. I used my phone for some time my file were there, but after rebooting file were gone, I am not able to find them.
plz help me those files were very important for me.
Use another Explorer (preferably root Explorer) and search for your lost files.
(make sure you have given your Explorer root permission though, along with making sure that your Explorer shows you the hidden files)
