hi guys,
i'm a newbe here
i have just rooted my htc desire x, and i would delete some useless system apps (i.e. 7digital, rescue, facebook.. etc),
ok so, i do that:
- open explorer
- reach /system/app
- delete /system/app/7digital.apk and /system/app/7digital.odex
right, everything ok!
i check on setting -> apps , no more 7digital on the list
but....
if i delete something else, (i.e. facebook etc...)
the phone turn it off and restart.
at the restart i find again all my deleted apps
someone knows why have this happened ?
thank you a lot!
Your phone is not completely rooted...You do not have permission to delete files from system or data when you are running the sense on it. I mean the phone is working.
You can do that in recovery mode only or else recently there is kernel patch introduce..you can patch it to delete files when phone is running.
Thru recovery you can use Aroma filemanager "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646108"
Else this post to tweak Kernel.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2142286

ok thank you! i'll try this "aroma filemanager"
just one more question, if i delete a system app with aroma from recovery, and then i do hard reset from settings->storage->hard reset,
the apps i have deleted with aroma will be installed again or not?
thank you

No, hard reset erases the data partiton...
i have tried aroma file manager but...
on aroma in /system/ there aren't folders
i don't know why, i start on / root position, there is /system folder,
tap on system folder and ... nothing!
no folders
no files
nothing...
however, i have reboot my phone and found everything at its place...
LoL

On the phone you can use a root file explorer app(available in the market) and go to system then apps and change the permissions to what he says above.

A drastic solution is reinstall your ROM, or install a new one (remember to make a backup in order to recover your data).

This happens when you format the sdcard without uninstalling the apps.
Do you have backups of these apps ? If you have reinstall them without removing anything.
Otherwise download the apks from other sites and then install them. Once you install , you will again will be able to see them normally in app manager and remove them without any pain. Google search with "your file.apk " . You will get plenty of result.

If you are on stock recovery then you can do. But if custome recovery installed, then no. Remember if you're s-off and having c custom recovery installed then a manual method exists to use ota update.

If so, then you are on stock. If you boot into recovery , and see no text or an android logo only with exclamation mark , means you are on stock.
Disable fastboot in power setting . Then power off your device . Press Power +volume down key together . Your phone will boot into bootloader. select recovery by pressing volume down key . Then press power. Your phone now will boot into recovery .

Use root explorer to move the apk to system/app folder and that'll do the trick.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Hmm still a no go. I have a sprint gs3. I wonder if thats the issue?
You meed root to move it to system/app folder, is it rooted?
If its rooted then in root explorer mount as r/w using the button at the top and then paste it in to the system/app folder.
If it successfully pastes in there you should be fine.
You don't need to install and anyway it won't let you, it'll keep saying not installed but since it is in system/app folder that doesn't matter.
Just reboot after you move it to the folder.

The issue is that you also need the .odex file, i had the same thing with sms (secmms. apk + odex)
I made a zip with the maps system\app\ and the 2 files. You can install it using recovery mode.

Copy into /system/app with file manager (I use ES), reboot.
It will appear in app drawer.
Or do you want some older one, from gingerbread?

Remember if you push any apps/mods manually with root explorer to the system folders to set the right permissions.
You could end up with alot of errors otherwise.

Why we could get alot of errors when changing the file in the system when we're doing it right?
If theres an error then either we fix it or do a restoration. thats why always do BACKUP.
I edited HTC_IME.apk from mySENSEdx+, it should work on Sense 4 lite too.

I suggest to use root browser (free on playstore), then locate to your downloaded HTC_IME.apk, copy and paste to system/app, then long tap ypur previously pasted HTC_IME.apk and set Permisions like this: Owner : Read and Write, Group : Read, Others : Read. OK. then reboot your phone.

Mount rw in root explorer, but if you use kernel without removed write protection that also wont help. Do it in twrp file manager, that will work 100%.
