Hello all,
I'm a complete noob in Android and programing, and accidentaly deleted DownloadProvider.apk (using root unninstaller), and trying to remove another app that came installed in my Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos...
Can anybody help me with a solution that doesn't need programing and/or advanced knowledge of Android? All works fine, except I cant install any apps, from Google Play or other source...
Help needed really really bad...
Thanks to you all

Seems You are rooted, on what Rom you are just download it, extract it, go into system->app find DownloadProvider.apk Fix permission to rw-r-r, reboot, done..:thumbup:
Yap, I'm rooted (that was hard for me but managed it lol).
So, I don't know what ROM i'm using (and even were to find it or one to my mobile).
To extract it, what program should I use? because I can't install anything without the app I've deleted by accident...
To go to System->app, I must use an app to do hat, right?... same problem, can't install...
Damn, i'm stupid to have deleted it...

Your respected thread is here.
Which region you belong select and download that through your computer, after downloading is finished, you'll find a zip file, open it by double cliking, go into system, then go into app, find DownloadProvider in app folder, drag directly it to your desktop, connect your mobile to computer, put DownloadProvider.apk in your SD card, detach from computer, if you have root explorer or efs file explorer, move this DownloadProvider.apk from SD card to System->app, fix permission to rw-r-r-, reboot, you are done:victory:

Thank you very very much _hito_
Just two more questions:
1) i'm in Portugal (Europe), what ROM should I choose?
2) I don't have root explorer or efs file explorer. would ZDBox do it? or how can I move it? with the built in explorer that came with the phone?
Thanks again

_hito_ (and all other that can help):
After downloading the ROM, I try to open it on my pc and can't (after unziping or before)... Can't find a "system" to go to, so I can find the app...
Any ideas?
Thanks

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
you don't rename it.
on computer you extract it, go into system and you see the apk
it won't let you install on phone by just clicking
put on sd card
go to astro, or root manager
move the memo.apk to system/app
done.
you need to extract the folder with winrar winzip whatever then there is a folder with the apk in it. copy it over to your phone under downloads or where ever you want to put it. then install.
edit: just did all that i said and when i tried to install the apk it says "application not installed"
just did what u said, even rebooted, and still don't see it

read the post above.
you have to move the .apk to system/apps
because memo isn't a regular app.
got the same thing. used astro, place the apk in system/apps. nothing happened. rebooted, still nothing. then even tried using the app manager in astro to install it and it says "there is a problem parsing the package"
Link no longer working... could somebody upload it again please ?

I've tried this with MIUI (1.7.22) on a SGS Captivate with no success. I have flashed many roms and installed/sideloaded many apps over the past 10 months. I know I'm doing it right, as I have 'installed' other system apps by moving the apk to /system/apps and fixing permissions and ownership. Has this worked for anyone on a MIUI ROM?
Another related question would be - is there a way to export the notes from the stock memo.apk?
Total Noob here want to try and put an apk from one rom to another rom already installed on phone. what I did so far I used the zip of the rom that had the apk and explored using right click and explore. did not unzip. left clicked and dragged apk to desktop. now how to get the apk to my phone. assuming extracted it correctly.
just need a noob easy to follow guide to move it.
Thanks
Depending on the app, you just move it to system/app
I use root explorer
Once there, reboot, you don't need to click and install it.
I have root explorer and not understanding the process I am mounted as r/w then cant find my file
did you put it in a folder?if not i put my apks in a folder so i know exactly where they are at. sometimes things in root explorer get cluttered
I moved it to my phone by adding it to my sd card just like a rom. is there another place to put it so root exploer will find it? then I can move it to system

make a folder on the root of your Sd card. put it in there name the folder files or something then in root explorer go to the bottom of the files and look in Sd card and lets say you named your folder files itll be in sdcard/files

In root explorer go to sdcard/ it should be there. If you put it on your external go to externalsd/ long hold the file it should have move. then go to system/app and paste it in there and reboot phone. If you still cant find it use search and look up the apk name and move it once you find it.
i just download the rom i want to my pc open it up with 7zip go to the app folder and pull the apk out that you want and and put it in the rom that you want to place it in.
Thank you very much got it. now I understand.
Help, I uninstalled "clock 1.0" and can't restore it (system app apparently)
I uninstalled clock 1.0 because i thought it would get rid of the widget of clock pictures I didn't use. I backed up clock 1.0 on titanium backup, but now it won't restore. even after i extract the apk and install it from there manually, it says installation failed.
i don't want to do factory reset because i have already rooted the phone.
help? or point me in a much better clock app than the one that came with the galaxy s2?
Apparenly it was a system app?!? com.sec.android.app.clockpackage
ok, so after some digging i found that com.sec.android.app.clockpackage.apk still existed in system/apps but just wasn't running. I also noticed for almost every .apk, there was a .odex. But for my clockpackage, there was no .odex, maybe that's why it's not working?
on that thought, maybe anyone here can copy their .odex files for the 2 clock .apks and send them to me? Just use Root Explorer to see the system/app folder, mount R/W if you need to, then copy the 2 .odex files and then upload them somewhere? Pls?!?
if you want root explorer, holla at me via pm

Stupid me did exactly the same and has exactly the same problem. Any help appreciated!
Regards, edi
same problem - thanks in advance
Well, found a solution: installed KE7 through Odin, Rootet again, everything was still there except google account binding...
Regards, Edi
THIS IS HOW I SOLVED IT. This is a superior solution to the one above as you do not need to reflash or reroot and you keep all data and settings. Apologies for not replying earlier.
1)keep your clockpackage.apk in system/apps
2)download this .odex file
3)put the file in system/apps, remember to mount r/w in rootexplorer to enable pasting it in there, then mount r/o when finished
4)turn phone off.
5)turn phone on.
(You need Root Explorer, or a similar app that will let you read/write system files) (Pls also refer to this thread)
Here's the odex file.
No success...
Guys, I did all you said here, following the step-by-step, managed to get both files in system/app folder, but still can't see the icon as if it were installed.
I have Root Explorer and Root explorer installed.
I noticed all files were set as "rw-r--r--" so I changed it on both apk and odex... I'm doing this on a Galaxy W running stock 2.3.6...
What am I forgetting???
All and any help will be deeply appreciated...
[Update]
I managed to get the ClockPackage.apk and the ClockPackage.odex from another device (running on 2.3.5 instead of 2.3.6) and now I get the following error while trying to install the apk:
"Parse Error: There is a problem parsing the package"
Does anybody know what to do?

Mate, it might sounds silly, but where's system/apps? Can't find it, no matter what pro version of any software I use (MyBackup Pro, ES File Explorer). It's like it's missing on my phone. Can you help me more? I've the same problem for the case.

Did you do what the instructions said? They clearly say 'use Root Explorer'. If you open Root Explorer, and scroll down, you will find the 'system' folder. Inside there will be another, 'apps'. That's what the post says....

You have to copy apk file into system folder. You can`t install it like any other app. To do that you have to be root user.
I use ES file explorer. Install ES file explorer. Go to options and select "Root Explorer" (press "Allow" when asked from superuser app) and "Mount File System". Copy your apk and go to your phone memory. Go to system and then app folder and paste it. Reboot your phone and you`re done.

Maybe you are using the wrong browser.apk `cause I found that cyanogen mod browser.apk is <500kB in size
here is official from the latest stable cyanogen which should work fine

Thank you man! I've copied the system/app/browser.apk from the latest zip. And paste it into the phone. Reboot, and it's done!

Sorry misunderstand.delete
I rooted with the stripped down ROM. But i need the stock email app in order to sync my Exchange contacts Where can i get just this apk? Thanks !!
Right. Download my ROM for example and extract Email.apk from zip file. Then copy it using RootExplorer or adb into /system/app on your phone. Change permissions to rw-r-r. Reboot.

Excuse my ignorance, but i can't seem to extract from any of the ROM's ive downloaded (can't find the link to yours if i click the ics one in your signature it just takes me to a long thread with no obvious links). I know how to use adb to get the file onto the phone, but cant figure out how to get it out of the .tar.ext4 file ?
download blazer rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746184
then use 7zip (http://www.7-zip.org/) to open the zip.
navigate to system/app and find email.apk
extract it from there (drag and drop it out of the 7zip window to your desktop)
then copy that to your phone ... either use adb to push it to system/app or use root explorer on your phone.
hope that helps
Hi, I realize that your rom says that it's just for Sprint, if I were to download it and take the contacts.apk from it, would that not work on my AT&T galaxy SIII?
I accidentally disabled it and am currently trying to find a way to get it back onto my phone. :'( *I already looked at my settings>applications>all and it's not there. [contact storage is there, but I can't find the application that I use to actually read that, after the disabling.//I raged on it for continually popping up on my advanced task manager.]

I rooted (using this method: http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s3-sch-i535-root-101633/) and ended up using the non-bloatware version and apparently the regular email app was considered bloatware for some reason because it disappeared.
So I tried following your instructions, but there was no "email.apk" in the download, so I figured you probably meant "exchange.apk." Followed the instructions, moved it to system\app, changed the permissions, and rebooted but it's still not showing. So I went back to try to install it manually, and it just tells me it wasn't installed successfully (and yes, I have "unknown sources" selected).
I am also not sure if this is the stock GSIII email app, based on the icon. Looks like the old yellow email icon to me.
