This is a long shot, but does anyone have an Alcatel OneTouch Pop Astro (5042T) that they can pull DownloadProvider.apk and DownloadProviderUi.apk from their system apps folder?
I accidentally deleted these files and now I can't download anything from the Play Store. If you need root, use the KingRoot app to root your phone.
Much appreciated!

On my Astro, I've only got DownloadProviderUi.apk (and not DownloadProvider.apk). Possible that the other file is somewhere else?
Also, wondering if you're aware of any custom roms that work for this device. I'm pretty diehard Cyanogen, but the Astro hasn't been ported there yet. Anything would be interesting for me to look at, thanks!
I found the downloadproviderui.apk & odex. In the /system/apps/ folder... And i also found my downloadprovider.apk & odex in /system/private-app/ folder.... I am new at this... And will try to attach the files.... Do you need the odex too...
Which version of KingRoot did you use? I can't get it to work on mine. I would really like to root this phone and any help would be appreciated.
back up

I'm having a few issues as well with this phone. I had it rooted with King Root and all seemed well, I accidentally let it OTA update and the flash failed and now its stuck in stock recovery. Does anyone have or know how to get a stock .zip file?

So I've been looking for a way to get the stock apps for calculator, calender, and alarm clock back onto my vibrant which is now running the vibrant6 rom from eugene...
So far I've seen suggested that we tear apart anomalous's deodexed rom and push the files through adb but I have a horrible 3g connection and it already took me forever to download the vibe 5 and 6 roms and don't want anything else from that rom just the .apks for these apps.
Also do they have to be pushed using adb or terminal or can I just use astro if I have it with rw permission to the /system /data folders n whatnot?
Either way I was hoping someone could post up on here some of these and other stock touchwiz apps for easy dl and reinstallation as I know much more than just myself have been looking for these apps to bring back to our modded roms.
Much thanks to all that could help with this
Pooped from my Samsung Vibrant using XDA app...
Dont mind the skidmarks...
I would think it'd be as easy as pushing the apks that came with the stock vibrant rom to the current one you right now.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
The issue is even if I go all the way back to my old rom through a nand backup you can't grab a back up as a simple apk through titanium and I'm unsure which files i could possibly manually back up to my sd using some sort off root explorer....
Thus my asking if anyone had these apks or files with a method of transferring them where they are needed... I know more then one person is looking for something like this

You must use adb or root explorer to "install" them. You cant just install them like a regular apk.
ADB:
adb push whatever.apk /system/app/ (do the same with the .odex file)
Root explorer:
Just copy the files from your sd to the system folder and reboot.

Old thread resurrected!
environment: Vibrant rooted w/ Eugene's Gingerclone Final R2
I'm a lil new to replacing system apps, but I read up on this and by all accounts, it should have worked.
Using adb to push the files previously linked to /system/app then rebooting yielded the existing (AOSP?) Calendar still being installed/displayed/used.
Noticed the pushed files had different names.
Renamed source files to match target files and re-pushed. Rebooted. Calendar no longer shows up in application listing.
Used Root Explorer to locate files in /system/app (currently mounted r/w) and tried to install the .apk's; installation ends with msg "Application not installed" with a "done" button to click.
used adb shell to rm the existing Calendar.apk and Calendar.odex, TouchWizCalendarProvider.odex/.apk and TouchWizCalendar.odex.apk and adb reboot.
pushed TouchWizCalendarProver.odex/.apk & TouchWizCalendar.odex/.apk to /sdcard; launched Root Explorer, copied all 4 files to /system/app/ and rebooted.
No "Calendar" or "TouchWizCalendar" or "TWCalendar" etc etc in applications list.
Use Root Explorer to navigate to /system/app/ and try to install said applications and result says "Application Not Installed"
Any help is appreciated.
Does anyone have the Memo app?
Flashed nero v3 and it didnt have it!
Also, i had some important info in there. Will it be there when i push the apk to the sysytem/app folder? My sd card still has everything from before I flashed.
thanks
the memo app is awesome

Its just like Explore or My Computer in Windows. Its not hard to figure it out, if you have problems with understanding a file explorer then you shouldn't be messing with your phone.

Where to find the META-INF
Hi guys,
I would just like to know where to get the '' META-INF'' folder?
I have rooted my Xperia X10i and I have Root Explorer.
Thanks.

Open root explorer. Find the file which you want to move/copy, hold your finger over it and from the popped out menu choose moce/copy. Then 2 buttons in the bottom will appear. Navigate to the root folder or where you want to put the file and pres the move/copy button below.

Please, explain what exactly you want to do?
Meta-Inf is the signature key in all apps. To see it just click an apk in root explorer and press view and all the files/folders of the app are there. Why do you need to find the signing key? Are you modding an app? If you change or remove the signature the app won't work until you re-sign it and you'll need to fully uninstall before reinstalling the modded app. If you don't know how to use an explorer you probably shouldn't be trying to mod and sign apks.

Okay,if I want to change my theme,then there are 3 folders(the new themes folders) wich I must replace in the root with the old one.(If I understand correctly)
The one folder is ''app''
the other one is ''framework''
and then theres the ''META-INF'' folder
I replaced the ''framework'' files with the ones in my root and my phone
restarted and after it restarted it just keeps restarting.
So,clearly I did something wrong?
Okay,I think I figured it out.....
I must first copy the ''app''
then open the app in root explorer,press view,and copy the META-INF files
then I can copy the framework files?
Is this correct?

Not entirely sure about it with framework but with any other app once you modify anything the meta-inf must be deleted and the app resigned. The meta-inf is the signature and once the app has been modified the signature no longer matches and so it has to be deleted. You can use the app 'signapktic' to resign apps once you remove the original sig. System apps I know don't need to be signed though but the meta-inf still would seem not to match once its been modified. I've modded plenty of apps but never the framework so I'm not positive on the signing requirements/procedures.

Hey Guys,
I'm trying to get the stock contacts dialler and mms app onto my rooted ZTE Skate with cyanogen.
as far as my understand goes, odexed apps cannot be pushed onto the cyanogenmod rom because it is a deodexed rom.
I tried deodexing with xUltimate v2.2.
it gave me a single .apk file which i pushed onto my phone.
it transferred successfully like it always does, but it doesn't appear on my app drawer nor under the relevant folder using a file explorer.
would appreciate if someone can shed some light on my problem...
Thanks in advance,
Mubs
If you place an apk file in the system/app directory and you don't see the icon in your app drawer (even after a reboot), that means the app doesn't work. Have you tried installing the app normally?
thanks for the reply.
yes i have. i just get the message aop not installed.
I've also tried the dialler and mms app too.

Don't know if you did this but, remember that you need to rename the new app to the stock app (Example: "ABCDE web browser.apk" would be need to be renamed to "browser.apk")
Yeah i extracted the apps from the stock rom so all throughout the journey, they've been holding the stock names.
Its strange because I can delete the contacts app that comes with cm and push the same contacts.apk that is present within the cyanogenmod system/app folder.
this app will appear in app manager, and the respected folder within the root directory.
but when i try to run it, i get a process failed error in acore or something like that.
same problem also exists after a reboot.
can anybody help me with this please?

State the exact error.
Ok thats very strange.
pushing contacts.apk that comes with cm7 now seems to work.
i can uninstall and push it back to my hearts content.
I then tried pushing the contacts.apk that i extracted from the stock ZTE skate rom and deodexed with xUltimate v2
and it doesn't appear in the app drawer, antek app manager list, or even under system/app when opened using ES file explorer.
what am i doing wrong?
is this contacts.apk even compatible with CM7?
i read that stock apps can be installed if deodexed, hence the reason why i went this route in the first place.
Thanks again,
Mubs

Did you set the permissions of the app to the same as the one for CM7?
Yes,
when push didn't work.
i transfered the deodexed (and the odexed) .apk from the stock rom onto my sd card and from there onto the sytem/app folder using es file explorer.
I changed the rights so that Owner has read and write privileges, Group has read privileges, and Others have read privileges.
Still no joy I'm afraid.

Ok. Have you tried re-deodexing it (or even just the app separately)?
How would i go about doing that?
do i just run the deodexed .apk through xUltimate again? I'll try that now.

No. You'll have to use both the odex file and app file again.
aah ok.
I'll do that.
I'm fine to push the deodexed .apk to the phone like normal right?
the xUltimate guide suggests i transfer the done_app folder to the sd card and then run a script.
are we sure this app is even compatible with CM7 in the first place?
Is there any chance we could get the icons and the clock widget of the Vertu Ti?
That is, if anyone is willing to shell out 5K on a phone just for the sole purpose of extracting .apks from it.
If you guys tell me how I can extract the apks.

If u have a Ti(obviously),then first i think u need to get it Rooted (sometimes stock recovery does it too)in order to extract a widget that came preinstalled,then after u root it,use root explorer to go to system/app and then look out for the widget.apk's ..
Similarly,for the icons,look for the app in system/app(using root explorer, and then copy the .apk to ur sd card,put the file on ur desktop,rename it as a zip file,extract it .
Then go to the folder called res,then drawable-hdpi and all icons will be there in .png format.
But all this is useless if u havent got it rooted,because I think u wouldn't risk to lose warranty on such a phone..
Hope this helps

It helps, though there's no root solution as of now. I don't know where to start for the root, technical support won't help. Neither will the internet. There's already a topic on XDA but no solutions.
I think you don't need root for this.
Enable USB debugging, install phone drivers to your computer, then do adb pull /system/ path-to-dump-folder.
interesting...

I've yet to find appropriate drivers to connect to ADB. Whatever I do the phone also connects the MTP at the same time even if PTP is chosen. Any help would be much appreciated as I'd also like to backup the device via ADB. With the latest updates the phone is now running 4.2.2.
If I am not wrong, Root explorer does work on non-rooted phone.
you can access the /system partition for copying stuffs. (as you can understand without root it will only work in 'read only' mode).
Hi,
I was able to root my Ti using farmaroot just google it fairly simple method. You can also unroot to with this tool which is a plus. But I would like to know how do I access its recovery? Any help will be appreciated.
