I am trying to pull LMW.apk from the stock 3.16 rooted rom and add it to stock with goodies 3.40 which is also based on 3.16. Its a low storage wizard apk. How do I do this? I have the apk file and I have it saved in my SD card. I tried to cut/copy and paste it to the system, app folder but with no avail
Anyone have any suggestions?

What I usually do:
1. Extract the APK like you would from any zip file to your SD card (RootExplorer has a utility for this, highly recommended!)
2. Go to the directory with the APK...
-a. If is a System App, copy the file and then navigate to your root directory, then to system, then to apps. Paste the file. Change the permissions to match the other files (usually rwrr). Restart the phone.
-b. If is just a regular APK for some reason, just open the APK to install.
If it doesn't work after that, you might need another file besides just the APK.

I have Criskelo Rom V32 a i want to install back any of origo systems apps
http://samsunggalaxysforums.com/showthread.php/4811-Safe-to-remove-applications-list?
How can I so that? Thanks
1. Use PC to unzip your ROM.
2. Extract the apps you want from system/app folder
3. Copy to sdcard
3. Use a root file explorer to copy or move to system/app directory on phone (mount r/w before paste)
4. Reboot into CWM recovery
5. Wipe cache and advanced/dalvik
6. Reboot
Or,
Just reflash ROM and no wipe. This will lose any themes and mods though.

It does not function, I choose the widgets and copy with root explorer to system/app, change permission as others apps has, restart phone but widgets does not apears in widgets....:-(. What am I doing wrong please?
You could modify the custom rom and add the apps you want then install the custom rom .
Open zip file with win rar System/apps add what you want .

Do you mean unzip rom in pc, insert apps and then again put to the phone?

Download custom rom to PC
Open rom with winrar but do not unzip just open .
Go to system double click to open
Go to Apps double click to open
Go to ADD and add each apk file .
Or even delete unwanted via delete button.
Close winrar copy zip to sd card and flash .
Above can be carried out with zip on sd card and mass storage usb connection also .

if you only need to install, reinstall or repair your some application, then you only have to extract it, copy it to sd card and install it as a normally .apk. but if it a system apk, you have to push it by using an explorer that can access system file, e.g Root Explorer.
I guess it's not a flashable zip. it's a firmware with .ftf extention inside the .rar.
so you can't install it by CWM, you have to flash it by flashtool. CMIIW
erm..i dnt know..but i couldn't find any .tft file inside..lots of folder..bt sure is,thr lots of .apk files too..
so..how??=.=
wait a minute, I'm downloading it to see the file.

those were system files from your phone that have been extracted from ICS rom...what you see in the system files is the same as in your phone...those system files is good backup in case you decided to remove/edit any system files (bloatware)....
those system files is not for normal install...you have to use Root Explorer to copy and paste it to your phone system files if you want get back the files you have remove before this....
remember you need to change permission for those files (rw-r-r)....

agree with this...
just like I posted above, you have to push it manually to /system/app .
If you have TWRP installed, you may not be able to see your zip folder. Such as a ROM or Gapps. Well I was recently having the same issue. There really isn't a "fix" to it. Its more like solving a puzzle. What happens is there is a duplicate folder somewhere. So to locate a zip file in TWRP simply download your ROM or whatever it is you want. And while you're waiting download a file explorer. The file explorer doesn't matter as long as you can copy and paste/ move files. So after everything is download open up your desired file explorer. And navigate to your download. Copy and go back to the root of your SD. And open up the folder titled "0" and paste your zip files in there. Either the root of the "0" folder or into the download. And now your zip file will show up in TWRP.

Pls can you try making a video of it? Thanks :crying:
I would like to deodex the Codex system. How Can I do that? 232 Stock-based update. I have the Sony Xperia z2.
This is a very compressed and short guide, but hopefully it'll help you to start (it assumes you already have your phone rooted and have recovery installed) :
1ST OF ALL : MAKE NANDROID BACKUP.
you'll need to have JAVA installed on your machine, download and install that.
- on your device, enable "usb debugging" from developer options
- connect your device to PC, click "allow" on device for usb debugging
- have adb.exe on your pc, navigate to that folder and press shift+right click in empty space in the folder, choose "open command window here"
- in the cmd window that shows up type these commands in order :
adb pull /system/app system/app/
adb pull /system/priv-app system/priv-app/
adb pull /system/framework system/framework/
adb pull /system/vendor/app system/vendor/app
adb pull /system/build.prop system/build.prop
this will get you a folder next to your adb.exe file called "system" with all the files inside
- open system/vendor/app folder and copy "ims" and "chrome customizations" to system/app folder
- open system/framework/ folder and copy "SemcGenericUxpRes" to system/app folder
download deodex tool from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/tool-deodex-tool-android-l-t2972025 (if you're not sure if your system is 32 or 64, get the 32 version)
- extract SVADeodexerForArtx32.zip to your c:/ drive
- open SVADeodexerForArt.exe and browse to where your "system" folder is (same folder as adb.exe)
- check app/framework/priv-app in the program options
- click deodex
- once done, create a flashable zip file from the resulting folders (remember to move files from "app" folder back to "framework" and "vendor" folder in the same order, or you'll get FCs)
- have SuperSU and flashable NUT recovery too on sdcard
- flash deodexed zip, then flash SuperSU and NUT recovery files again
- clear cache/dalvik, reboot
This is a rough guide, basically how I do it. if you need further help, post here and I'll try to respond or someone else will help/correct me if I made a mistake.
thanks
i deodexd with SVADeodexerForArtx64.exe
after that
how to create flashble zip
and which folders will i zip?
pls tellme bro
see attached file for creating flashable zip.
you need to copy the deodexed version from the SVADeodexerForArtx64 folder (you'll find app, framework, priv-app folder there) just open the zip with winrar, drag and drop folder, do a replace (don't change any settings).
Remember to move the "SemcGenericUxpRes", "ims" and "chrome customizations" to their respective folders (framework and vendor/app) to avoid FCs
Once you do that, your deodex file is ready to flash, then after that reflash SuperSU and NUTs recovery.
thanks

I'm not sure if this zip will work for Android 6.0 since it's not available to test atm. Let's wait until it's out and see then
To confirm your rom is deodexed, use a file explorer with root acces (es explorer) and navigate to /system/, then do a search for "odex" and you should not find any files.

NUTs dual recovery is what is used on locked bootloader Z2 phones, it has both CWM and TWRP for you to choose from, just google "NUTs dual recovery Z2" or search the forums here for more details.
thank bro......

i did all you said, but after flashing the deodex.zip with the deodexed apk´s inside i get bootloop.
Tried everything but no chance. Always bootloop - damn
I'm using V7 MIUI rom, I downloaded V8 rom from miui.com (both of them are Chinese's rom). I find that I can copy apk files in "Data" folder and install it normally. But apk files in "System"--->"Data" and "Priv-Data" cant do like that. I cant install them like files in "Data" folder does, and I notice that those file have a folder in same directory, inside that folder have a ".odex" file.
So, i wonder that those file must be install in special ways? And How can I install them?
Thank you for my poor english.:good:
Those system apk files usualy need to be flashed. You could copy and paste them in in a ROM.ZIP you are currently using and install them via a recovery (TWRP or CWM).
How it is actually done I am not realy sure (no experience) but in theory it should work this way.
