I uninstalled the stock clock because I thought that would delete the clock widgets instead. Restoring did not help, so I searched the forum and found this: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1070083)
According to the thread, I would need ClockPackage.apk and ClockPackage.odex to get the stock clock back. I have found ClockPackage.apk here, so all I need now is ClockPackage.odex. Could anyone please upload the odex file here, please? Thanks in advance.
Help, please. I'd greatly appreciate any help.
are you on a stock rom? how did you uninstall a system app? Guessing you have root so just put the clockpackage.apk in system/app, give it the right permissions, reboot and it'll be fine (hopefully), the phone should generate a new odex for the apk
Extract those original files from your downloaded "Rom" package and copy it to your mobile. Use root explorer to copy the file to system\app and set the right permissions.

Yes, it is rooted. Also, I did put the apk file in system/app and I got the app back on the application menu. However, it crashes whenever I try to run it.

Have you set the right permissions in root explorer for the apk?

I did not downlaod any rom so I think I am still on stock rom. What permission do I need to set?
Can somebody tell me if i want to use applications in system/app folder of one phone in another , how can i do this?
For example i tried to copy the memo.apk (application) from samsung galaxy s2 to xperia play's system/app folder using root explorer. After rebooting i still could not find the memo applicaiton in my mobile. I also simply tried installing the memo .apk extracted from galaxy s2 in my xperia play but it could install.
Thanks.
That may be because of changed framework...
The system app has more than apk file like odex...
Hej,
So I try to push the musicplayer.apk in the system/app folder with terminal, that works as I reboot but it's not installed. but it's in the folder system/app and rw-r-r... do I have to instal it from the system/app folder? or should it automaticly instal it when it reboots?
what am I doing wrong?
grts,
lio
Try installing it normally by transferring apk file to sdcard and installing it using some file explorer, then move the apk from /data/app to /system/app using root explorer and set the permissions to match with those of the other apps

If I try to install it, it says "app not installed". I'll look for a better apk. you know where to find default apps for sgs2? I just like the MusicPlayer.apk from the stockrom. it can sort by folder and it's easy to use!!
and a little question, can I get notifications in my email if someone replies or sends me a message on xda or something. cause I have to check it post by post...
oke found a good musicplayer!!! Mortplayer! it's free and maybe even better...
thanks!!!
I want to edit one of my apks (specifically Clash of Clans) and I can't find it's location on my phone. I have ES File Explorer and I have still have trouble locating it. My phone is the Galaxy S4 and there is no data/app folder or system/app folder so I have no clue where it is. If anyone could help me that would be great, thank you.

Applications that don't come bundled with the ROM are installed in /data/app (not data/app - even though your file explorer may hide the leading slash).
You can't read /data/app without root permissions. That's probably your problem.

Eh, my device is rooted and I still couldn't find /data/app even with root permissions enabled. All I did instead was send a copy app and that seemed to work (ES File Explorer to Dropbox). Thank you though.
How do I change the root permissions?
1.- Move all these apks to the /system/priv-app folder of the android wear watch, and chmod 644 all apks with adb/terminal or change permissions to rw,r,r and change the owner to System and the group to System with file manager.
/system/Priv-app Apks -

Yes I got all intalled ok. I did everything as you said.
I can't figure out what's wrong.
Does UCBrowser open and work?
"Google play services has stopped to work" after this process. I can´t get uc browser or play store working (installing as user apps as shown at step 3) If I move it to priv-app, UC browser works, but playstore´s still crashing. I don´t understand the dummy apks and its purpose...
If I install the dummy and before the user app UC browser, it doesn´t work. It needs to be pushed on priv-app to get networking

Yes I guess it needs to be done first! If you use /system/app mover to move playStore to system then after it reboots install the newer PlayStore apk as an user with ES file explorer then delete the play store apk on the system/priv-app folder and add the older dummy apk again and it should work! I think it needs to be installed to system for real first then update it then move the older dummy apk to /system folder after you've updated it, the point of the dummy apk is to save space! if you want you could just leave the real apk in the System/folder

I don´t understand the steps. If I install something outside from priv-app, it won´t work on network, that´s a fact. I think google play services must be in priv-app also with play store and other google apps, but I don´t have space enought on /system partition (the play store crashes saying google play services has stopped, and I cannot install play services as user app because it says that already exists). Why it already exists? Must I delete the default Android wear Play services and replace with this new package? And what´s the installation order?
1- Install the dummy as user app and move it to /system with permissions, etc.
2- Reboot and install the real google play apk as user app
3- Reinstall the dummy on /system again (mantaining the real Gplay as user app and getting free space on /system)
Is this?
I only got UC browser working while being on priv-app, but nothing with play store... Really I´m trying to get it working
Yes any apps in the system folders get networking! And if you update that app it moves it to /data and still works as long as an dummy apk is in system folder. And yes I might have use the adb -r command to install play services or threw ES file explorer as an update? I'm not to sure

Then, how I update an app for save space on /system? And how I install new play services without corrupting anything?
And what´s adb -r command for?
Sorry for all of that questions, but I´m interested in learning And thanks for all!
Have you tried to install play services apk with ES file explorer or threw adb? Android wear has play services installed already so it's just an update! It's called prebuiltGmsCoreForClockworkWearable.apk on my watch and is in the priv-app folder!
you have to install the app or apps to the /system/priv-app or /system/app folder first - you can use the app /system/app mover or adb or terminal or file manager. then you need to use ES File explorer and install an newer version of the same app and it will be updated and re-installed to the /Data partition where there is more space, it does not remove the apk from the /system folders but it's not used only checked for and wastes space so that's why the dummy apk is used. If you don't want to install other apps to system then just install PlayStore or UCBrowser and leave it in system but there isn't much space 30+mb.
adb install -r package.name.apk reinstalls the app without replacing the data like an update.
Ahh I found what was going on I forgot an apk GoogleAccountManager.apk it don't need to be in the system folder but if you reset the watch it will get deleted too unless it's in the system folder!
Can you upload it please? I'll try it

Hi, may I ask, what is the purpose of doing this? Is it for times when Android Wear becomes unstable?
I have put the apps to /system/priv-app. I chmod-ed them to 644. But i am not able to change user/group.
when in sdcard/Downloads the files are shown as root:sdcard_r. chown system:system filename result in no error, but ls -al still delivers root:sdcard_r
after putting the files in system/priv-app i am shown to have no rights to change user/group (no rights to write on system?). I dont know how to get these rights. Standard linux code doesnt work, necessary commands not integrated in wear?
In the file manager of twrp i dont find any option to change user/group. ES File Explorer is installed, but activation of root explorer returns an error. And yes, the device IS rooted
Edit:
When in /system/priv-app by adb shell su the files are shown root/root as user/group.
So the whole procedure results in:
I can start ES File Explorer (only through native GUI, not wear mini launcher, dont know why) - but i am not able to install an apk by it. Every try results in no app/no gesture. Now i am stuck...
Edit:
Ok, i made it by TWRP/Terminal. baaaaad work with that smaaaall keyboard and big fingers...
but it doesnt look as if that was the big point. File Explorer still cant get root explorer and i still cant install apps...

Do you have root for this? If so how have you granted access if superuser doesnt work yet? Also how do you change the groups? And do the apks need to be in a folder in system/priv-app like they are in our phones? I moved all the apks but none of them installed I have TWRP but im still trying ti work out my root on Sony Smartwatch 3
