hi. i'm new with android but i'm catching up.
i have installed official korean froyo and made a nandroid dump. later i decided to try nordic froyo which so far is the best stock rom out there. however i would like to have stock application in previous korean rom and install into current rom.
for an example i try FileManager.apk and FileManager.odex. i deleted existing filemanager and replace with the above files but nothing showing up in the drawer. i install it manually using file explorer but it give an error "application not installed".
am i doing wrong or not all stock application is compatible with other rom?. thanks
.........anyone/.?
I'm trying this as well. Have a go at wiping dalvik cache just after placing the new files in your system. Tell me how that goes
I deleted my the Phone.apk file on my rooted Galaxy Player 4.0 (YP-G1CWY/XAA) running the stock rom awhile back to save on battery life.
I have done the same thing on my Nook Color, and figured that it wouldn't cause any problems, as the Player isnt a phone.
Recently tried to record some video, and found I was unable to do so. After doing some research I found out that deleting phone.apk causes the stock camera app, but not 3rd party camera apps, to stop functioning.
While I was sure to backup the file when I originally deleted the file, the backup has been lost in the intervening months.
Do I just need to find a specific phone.apk file for my device and return it to the correct directory?
I assume a factory reset will solve the problem, but I would rather not try that unless I have to.
Thanks!
a factory reset will not solve the problem, since it was a system .apk it will reset everything except for that particular apk.

In which case do I need to track down a copy of that specific apk or will I need to download odin and perform a full recovery?
put back the phone.apk file back on your device. Go to a ROM(best if its that ROM you are using) Find the phone.apk, and take it out. Then transfer it into your device, and use Root Explorer or something and put back phone.apk.
i dont think that will work because i uninstalled the screencapture.apk from my 5.0 and i backed it up so i tried to reinstal and it would not let me... but try aznflawless' way first if not you may want to flash a stock based rom...

This seemed to work for me!
I tried looking in various roms before, but they were all formatted for flashing with odin.
I should have just went straight for the cwm package. *slaps forehead*
Thanks so much!
i shall try that sir thanks
As others said... find the phone.apk... preferably from the same rom you are using... use RootExplorer and copy the phone.apk to the system/apps folder. Change the permissions to match the other apps in that folder... reboot and you are good to go.
For your future reference, it is not a good idea to delete system apps without knowing what they actually do... I think you made a real good guess since phone.apk should not be on a device that is actually not a phone by function. For example, the Android Market app is actually called phonesky.apk or vendor.apk... nothing like what you would normally guess it to be, such as market.apk or something to that matter. So if I were you and I wanted to keep using my device and not brick it, I would becareful what I delete out of /system and it's sub folders...
Good luck...
Try to reinstall your custom rom!!

this is a thread from august of 2012. please dont go digging through old threads and posting on them
I have a rooted GiONEE Dream D1 GN878. I tried deodexing the stock rom with xUltimate 2.4.2
Initially I had errors while deodexing the framework files. But using the latest smali and blacksmali solved this and deodexing of /system/apps and /system/framework was successful.
Then I pushed the apps and framework to the system directory using adb and also deleted the odex files in both folders. The phone starts boot-looping after rebooting. Wiping cache, dalvic cache & data has not solved the problem. I have logcats (attached) but am not very familiar with this. (NOOB ). Can someone have a look and tell me whts wrong? Any help will be appreciated greatly.
So I decided to flash the Settings.apk & SystemUI.apk from the ARTMOD v4.31 ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260951) but problem is that the status bar doesnt appear and I get SystemUI has stopped working. Settings.apk works fine! Im on stock XT910 JB 4.1.2 ROM. First, I made a backup of SystemUI.apk, SystemUI.odex, Settings.apk and Settings.odex, then deleted the .odex files and then booted in SafeStrap Recovery and flashed the SystemUI.apk and Settings.apk from a flashable zip I made, but got SystemUI has stopped. So I made a flashable backup of the SystemUI.apk and .odex and then flashed it, but had the same problem! Someone HELP! :'( Ive wiped dalvik-cache but nothing. I dont want to do a full wipe because I dont want to have to download everything again! But i guess im going to have to, to try! But someone please help! :'(
Hey guys, i wanted a Android stock experience in my new rom so i put it on all Gapps, and thanks to the root access, i uninstalled all apps i didn´t want, but in all the things i deleted, i deleted two things i didn´t want:
-One of this wasn´t very important, but i managed to recover it, i refer to com.android.providers.calendar (i had another calendar calendar app and i wanted the Google one, but i deleted that archive which i didn´t know what was).
-The non-solved problem are the downloads, i have the ES File Explorer and i deleted all the System Apps with the android stock download icon, i think they are android.providers.downloads and android.providers.downloads.ui, i downloaded with the pc both apks (because now i can´t download nothing with the mobile phone,that´s my only problem left with the mobile, but i think it is a big one), but the thing is i can´t install none of them because it says "App not installed the package conflicts with an existing package by the same name". Anyone can help me with this issue?
PD:i deleted it because i wanted the "Downloads" app of android stock (i had no one with my actual rom and I am used to have one).
What a mess. You can't just randomly delete system files and expect no problems. Dirty flash your rom and start again.
They said the same with the calendar problem and i managed to solve it, there has to be a manner to solve this too, i mean i have all configured in the new rom and the only problem i have right now is this, i´m not going to flash the rom again at this ponit.
Are you trying to re-install the missing download apk's with app installer? I would just replace the missing files in the correct system app folders and reset their permissions to rw-r-r-
Which rom are you on? You may have to backup your current rom setup in TWRP, reinstall the rom, copy the necessary files and folders, noting where they go, then restore your rom backup and replace the files where they should be.

If you deleted them with ES file explorer they may still be in the recycle bin.
I have nothing in recycle bin, i wanted somebody to tell me how to recover the downloads like i recovered the calendar, i have the apk but i can't install, anyone has the .zip to install it via recovery or any android downloader i could use? I think there has to be somebody who had the same problem and managed to solve, and PLEASE, don't tell me to re-flash the rom, all i want is a solution, deleting all i have done is not one.

Im sorry but you have to dirty flash. I don't understand why would you do such a thing but that doesn't matter. If you dirty flash your ROM they will be reinstalled and you still have your data.
