I was using stock Marshmallow on my rooted z2, so i used the ported xperia X system UI on my phone and i replaced the system ui and framework via root explorer, i did a mistake with the permission not setting it to rwrr, so after i rebooted... it says system ui not responding. is there any way i could flash the original system ui with adb or pc or anything? i got the stock system ui n framework backed up just don wanna go through the hassle of formatting my phone and i got no recovery. is there any way?

Hi
I accidentally deleted the launcher when I went to delete another apk in system/app
I'm using de stock rom on xperia mini pro (sk17i)
How I can fix it? I don't have other launcher installed.
push original home.apk via adb
If you turned off your phone, you'll need to flash the software back.
Had similar problem with my phone, "updated" with SEUS. My phone's factory reset now, but it's totally working.
I flashed the stick firmware again ! Thanks !
Because this has happened to me quite a lot of times, when im trying to alter something in the original home.apk, what i have done is, i have another launcher (ADW for example) on my computer. When something goes fubar, i just install ADW, then i get in the system folder (if inaccessible with adb) and replace the ****ed up home.apk with the original home.apk .
Instead of flashing its better to use "Android Sideload wonder machine" to install stock launcher.
Thats all
neroyoung, thanks ! I will use in the future
Hello guys,
I had been trying to install some Xperia Z3 Widgets, Home Screens and other stuff to my Z2. Unfortunately I accidentally replaced the Home.apk with one of the many that can be installed from the Z3, rooted or not. Now I'm stuck with the "Simple Home" mode. I tried installing like 4 different home apk's from the Z2 with no luck. Moved the file to the system/app folder, changed permissions to rw-r-r and installing the apk. Finally I tried with a factory reset, but nothing happened.
I would like to know if there's a way to reinstall the original home.apk, where can I download it, and the right way to do it.
My phone model number is: D6503, Android version: 4.4.2, Build Version: 17.1.A.2.55
I used the Z2 Community Rootkit v01 to get me through the process of changing file permissions and access system folders. But haven't tried to download and flash any custom ROM, because I'm still new to all this, and don't want to mess things up more than they already are.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
Go to settings -> Home and you can chose the original launcher from there and remove unwanted launchers.

Solution for "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped" after instaling custom theme
After installing custom theme on CM13 got totaly blocked phone. This solution help me : go in TWRP advanced/ file manager/data/app. Now you need recognise folder with last instaled theme and delete all files inside . Reboot phone and should be all ok.
I use CM13 (20160120 now) and I can install themes without getting any error.
The "Liv" theme made my phone unbootable when i set its botanimation (the animation started, then screen turned off). I was able to boot it up by wiping dalvik cache (what?).
Now I set the theme without the bootanimation and works very well.
Switched off theme service, all work as usual

Hello all,
my Question is:
How to Embedding a custom APK inside Android 11 Stock ROM as part of the System?
I want this APK to survive a Reset to factory settings and to be installed again as part of the system no matter how many times I reset to factory settings or wipe/format the device!
My device is: Samsung SM-M315F/DSN
should this APK goes inside:
"system\system\priv-app" or "system\system\app" or "/product/priv-app/" or "/product/app/"
I need help achieving this please on Android 11?
I can Root my Device if it's needed at first, but the idea is after I do all the necessary steps for embedding this APK into system that I'll UNROOT my device.
thats it. I hope to find help please.
thanks.
If you wipe / format an Android device by nature all data housed therein are lost - Android OS included, hence it doesn't matter where the APK in question gets installed to.
but jwoegerbauer, when I reset to factory settings android device already gets back to system defaults and preinstalled stock apps!
thats what I need, is to make my APK part of the stock apps, so when I reset to factory its installed as well.
eg. same like google play store, samsung members, galaxy store, etc.
these apps above are part of the system and no matter how many times u reset, they will be installed.
thats my idea..
and btw, thx for your ADB-FASTBOOT-INSTALLER
Correct: A Factory Reset does NOT affect Android's core components such as system-apps ( along with apps pre-loaded by your carrier and/or manufacturer into the system partition ).
So converting / installing an user-app to / as a system-app might be a good idea. But this requires device's Android must got rooted.
it is rooted already but thats not the idea.... coz it's very easy.. all I need to do is using a root file explorer and create a folder with the apk file in it inside app folder inside /system/system/app or /priv-app or /app and give proper permission to folder and to file inside it and reboot and this APK will be installed and be part of the system and even with reset it'll keep be installed
this is not what I'm aiming for or is not my question.
my question is for EDITING stock rom itself and embedding this APK inside it, without the need to root
or
even if I do so with this APK using root method, I then need to UNROOT my device, and if I do so, this private or user APK I installed/embedded will be lost.
and I dont want to lose it.
any help?
used CRB doesn't help and now S.U.R says Format not supported!
