[Q] Navigation bar and Status bar not showing. SystemUI missing. Help - Dell Venue

Hi all
[*]I was playing with navigation themes using softkeyz app on my rooted dell venue 7 3730.. Everything was going fine. And once restarted, I see black screen with apps and my navigation and status bar are missing.. I can't touch back, home or anything. I can't even see the time. while checking, I found that my systemui.apk is missing in /system/app. I found it from somewhere else and pasted to /system/app. But didn't work. I uninstalled softkeyz. Even factory reset my tab.. Nothing has been worked. :crying:
Can anybody send me systemui.apk so that I can try.. Please help me if I can put it using adb.

if your tablet have kitkat, the systemui.apk should be in /system/priv-app/.
Also you can try to flash the whole rom through fastboot, im new but, if i'm not wrong the factory reset only wipes the /data directory
i hope that you understand me, bad english

Thank you
Thanks!! You helped me fix my problem.. I flashed entire rom using fastboot..

Sounds like you broke your settings, just pull the settings apk from the original rom zip and push it to your phone then reboot.

Forgive me if I may sound a little dumb here but how do you pull it from the original rom then push to phone?......
I am sure one of the fonts did that. it has happened to me before. To pull somethiong out of rom just unzip it. Settings.apk is in system/app folder.
Awesome fonts. Thanks!!

Very nice. Thanks for this. I was so tired of the same s**t!
one of these fonts seem to crash your phone and give you force closing. IDK which one yet but if i find out i will post. If anyone else knows please let me know

YES PLEASE I redid everything on my phone and its great again but i would love to use a different font but i do not want to use this zip until someone can pin point the problem
the ajax font crashed my settings, i repeat do not install the ajax font, it will crash your phone and constant FC of your display settings, i extracted the original settings .apk from my rom and pushed over and rebooted, that does not work...still FC... not cool...
I pinpointed the one that's causing the force closes. can't remember the exact name because I deleted it right when I discovered which one it was. I do believe it had something like "7con in it. Or something to that extent. Hope this helps everyone that's having this issue.

Uninstall it using Titanium or super manager or whatever you use and it ll be back to normal.
I unistalled them all using Titanium and was able to open up my display settings again.
Edit: post before me beat me to it.
yeah, that doesn't work, i uninstalled all of them hours ago...tried to push the settings apk over using root explorer but root explorer wont allow me to mount the system folder to rw just stays ro, i pushed settings.apk over to the data folder where app is and that did nothing after i replaced settings.apk...should i unistall settings.apk from titanium then reinstall settings.apk from my rom zip? i try to reinstall the settings.apk and it will not allow me to do so..now my launcher is freezing up and force closing on reboots...
Woops same problem. Is it the ajax apk?

Hi & Thanks for the look. My phone is in my signature. Basically a virgin Galaxy Nexus unlocked and rooted.
Any .zip I try to install, even as you suggested above gives me the error. Sigh! I want that inverted stuff.
I love you guys and a newb of sorts I am frustrated in all the wonderful stuff that gets posted without install details.
I cannot help but think if I am trying to install a inverted MMS, Gmail, or People .zip should I not disable or rename the current apps that I am replacing?
I experimented flashing the su.zip and it went ok. So it is not my phone.......I think?
Thanks.

How embarrassing!
Hey tried to install the apk but It keeps failing. Can I change it to .zip and just flash it?

If your talking about the mms.apk,
I use root explorer to navigate to the system/app folder and find the OE mms.apk and rename it to mms.apk.bak to disable it. The icon will disappear from the home screen start bar and app drawer.
I then place the new mms.apk in system/app folder and make sure its permissions are all checked off.
Then go to my app drawer and see if its there and will run. If it does I drage the icon back onto my home bar.
Some devices are finicky. Some require a reboot after a renaming then move it in there. Some require a reboot after every move. Its according to the apk and the device.

Yeh. Just don't have two enabled ones in there.
Having major issue here. I tried to install the .zip when it was posted through cwm and it kept fibbing me an error. So then I downloaded the .APK file and tried to install it, another error. Then I moved it to system/app and when I rebooted I hand no messaging at all. I restored my stock messaging from my titanium backup file, but I can't figure out what's wrong. I really want this messaging system, I love the look. Can anyone give me some ideas?

[Q] Ninja Morph Problem

Hi guys...
I have a problem here. I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 through superuser one click and installed an app called ninja-morph from the market. This app can extract the files of an apk and we can replace objects such as image icons, in the folders in order to make them look as we want to. What happened now was that I changed the icons of two of my system apps successfully - Browser & Gallery. Then I thought of changing the icon of settings app, I tried 2 do so but what happened was that it didn't change and it started force closing. Then I went on to the web and searched for many solutions and so I downloaded an apk, shifted it to my phone an tried to install it but it didn't install. After many tries and changes through ninja-morph too I couldn't do anything. Now the problem is that I can't use wifi 'cause it needs settings. I can't even download any alternative 2 use wifi 'cause it needs wifi. I can't to anything related to internet or settings now. And worse, I just Factory Data Reseted to try if anything can be solved, but no... I just deleted all my apps. One way is to reload the software. But is it safe to do it with a root? Because I can't un-root it. Please Help Me Out.

Which rom are you using?
Seems your settinga apk got corrupted. Your options are:
-extract the original settings apk from the rom you're using and place it in system/app (with a root Explorer), with rw-r-r permissions.
-reflash a complete rom (custom through cwm or stock trough Odin)
Also, make a habit of backing up your original stuff before modding.

I deleted systemUI.apk

Hello, I've deleted my systemUI.apk. It has messed up phone up. I don't have my notifications bar nor multitasking. I have a Huawei M931 with stock firmware but rooted. Could somebody provide a download for their systemUI.apk if they have the same phone? Or help me out with my situation? I never backed up anything from my rom.

Try downloading the stock rom and then again installing it on your phone. You can also try by the software cd that came with your phone

You could reinstall the stock ROM as stated, or you could extract the apk from it and push it to your device. Another option is to flash a new ROM.

I was going to try to flash another ROM to my phone but they all say to make a backup to my SD card. I did not know what that meant. I thought it was making a backup of the ROM and I did not know how to do that. Also my phone did not come with any CDs.

It is making a backup of the ROM. You need a custom recovery to do that.

Deleted systemUI.apk
Hi, I was hoping someone could help me with my problem.
Long story short I rooted my phone because when I tried to update Google Maps I got a 'package file not signed correctly' error so I read around and read you can delete system files which I did and I got Google Maps to update.
Then I delved into rooting a little more and tried to edit the statusbar icons so I extracted the APK file and changed the desired icon but when I tried to add them back into the SystemUI.apk it wouldn't let me paste them. So I decided to delete the whole .apk and then reinstall the modified one but when I clicked the file and tried to Install it I got a message saying ' x Application not installed' but now because I deleted the file I have no Background, StatusBar, Notifications or Multitasking and I'm completely stuck.
I tried wiping my phone which didn't work and I've read around and tried to flash the ROM using Oden3 but it won't detect my phone and now because SystemUI.apk is gone I don't get the USB Storage pop up so I can't connect my phone to the computer.
Too make matters worse when I hold Volume Down + Home + Power to enter recovery or download mode I get an Android symbol on it's Back with a Red triangle and a '!' sign inside. I can click the home button which brings up the menu and the volumes buttons to navigate but then it won't let me select an option.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 which WAS on Android 4.2 but I have no idea whats happened now because the layout is completely different. It looks like Android 4.4 but isn't
I'm completely stuck on what to do and I've searched high and low for 3 days and found nothing that works.
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP.

I SOLVED IT *****! HERE'S HOW I DID [email protected]@@
I accidentally deleted com.android.systemui on my phone. Version KitKat 4.4.2.
STEP 1. HAVE AN EXACT DUPLICATE OF THE PHONE READY. HAVE THE SAME PHONE READY. LUCKILY I HAD ANOTHER PHONE OF THE SAME MODEL. GO TO A PHONE SHOP OR SOMETHING.
IT WILL HAVE THE SAME com.android.systemui .
STEP 2. INSTALL NOVA LAUNCHER OR SOME SORT OF LAUNCHER ON THE PHONE MISSING THE FILE, SO YOU CAN LOAD THE PHONE AND BE ABLE TO SEE IT!
STEP 3. INSTALL TITANIUM BACKUP ON BOTH PHONES. ROOT IT AND USB DEBUG IT BEFOREHAND.
STEP 4. ON THE BACK UP PHONE, OPEN UP TITANIUM BACKUP AND CLICK ON BACKUP/RESTORE ON THE TAB AND GO TO com.android.systemui. BACK THE **** UP THE FILE.
STEP 5. CONNECT IT TO THE COMPUTER, AND GO TO YOUR PHONE AND COPY WHAT'S INSIDE THE "TitaniumBackup" FOLDER.
STEP 6. CONNECT THE ****ED UP PHONE TO YOUR COMPUTER AND PASTE THE CONTENTS OF "TitaniumBackup" FOLDER (WHICH ARE com.android.systemui FILES) IN THE ****ED UP PHONE'S "TitanumBackup" FOLDER.
STEP 7. DISCONNECT EVERYTHING, EXIT OUT OF EVERYTHING, AND RESTART THE PHONES. GO TO YOUR ****ED UP PHONE, CLICK ON THE TITANIUM BACKUP, FIND com.android.systemui AND RESTORE IT!
STEP 8. ENJOY YOUR PHONE.
NOW YOU DON'T HAVE TO FORMAT IT , RESET IT, REINSTALL A FOREIGN ROM, OR DEBUG IT USING ADB OR SDK, AND ALL OTHER COMPLICATED THINGS FLOATING AROUND, RISKING LOSING ALL OF ITS DATA. JUST GO A LITTLE CREATIVE.
IF IT WAS OF ANY HELP TO YOU OR YOU ACTUALLY RECOUPED YOUR DATA BECAUSE OF ME, AND YOUR PHONE DATA WAS OF ANY WORTH TO YOU, PROBABLY WORTH MORE THAN $100, PLEASE SEND ME SOME APPRECIATION PREFERRABLY OVER $100, TO MY PAYPAL. THE EMAIL ADDRESS IS [email protected]

[Q] need sound picker apk

I just messed my phone up by wiping the whole os. But thanks to duir I downloaded the ruu and got going again and 're installed twrp and re rooted but when removing some of the usless apps I accidentally uninstalled the sound picker system app. I couldn't restore it for some reason now it's gone. Was wondering if anyone had or knows where I can get it. Everything else works fine and I tried downloading other ring pickers from the market but they don't seem to work.
Thanks in advance. Al

I'm assuming this is for stock and not a custom ROM. If so, here's the apk and odex file in a recovery flashable zip.
thanks duir
Suit your amazing!!! I did just use the RUU that you posted and reset my device again because we'll to be honest I gave up looking for apk. I tried to take it out of system dump and install it but root explorer wouldn't let me change permission s to install it but this zip file is good to have just in case even though I will be more careful from now on. But I can now reset my phone and root it within about 20 mins thanks to you and xda! I have however been looking for a digital rain boot animation for the zara cl if you know of any around you could point me in the right direction I'm sure once again thank you and everyone here at Xda
