You don't install this like a regular app. Use root manager and push to system>apps. Make sure to adjust permissions.

yea when I changed a main rom app from system/app I went into titanium backup.1)backup system app just in case. there usually in red. 2)I wrote the name exactly like it says on system file- onto the app i am going to replace that I stored on sd card from computer.3)On Titanium I uninstalled app. 4) Paste sd app in system/app folder. Installed. Opened backup in Titanium again so I don't loose it.( Just so you know I did this with a google search widget in system app. I wanted a transparent search. Hope this helps someone

I followed your instructions and it worked perfectly! Thanks for the help.
Here's a new black app that's worth trying out, no grey and looks killer:
Black Google Mobile by bGoog
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bgoog.android.search
Look for an app called custom ICS search, it allows you to create a widget go any color you want.

I've google searched this to no end and I've tried the other solutions, so I'll ask here.
I tried installing the new google music. System complains it's a system app, but I tell it to install anyway. Tells me "Application cannot be installed in the default location". So I try using Titanium Backup to uninstall (after backing up) the old music app. Then I get "Application still exists." So I try changing setInstallLocation to 0. And it says "Package is not signed correctly."
I have gotten all 3 errors and as far as I know I've tried all possible solutions, but maybe someone can help.
Thanks in advance.

Tried it. Doesn't show up in my app list after a restart. I've deleted music.apk and com.google.music.apk (the original apk), then put the new google music in the folder.
I've also tried installing it in that fashion as well to no avail.
After you put something in the /system you have to change permissions or the app will not show up , link you a photo of proper permissions
Edit : Put the app in system/ first , then long press on it and select permissions, change permissions to match the photo I attached below. After that, Then move the app to /system/app/ , I dont move apps to /system/app/ until after I changed permissions because some apps will constant force close if you replace the apk and the permissions weren't set first, not many apps will but its good practice if you didnt make a backup before changing apk's.

Has anyone managed to get to the bottom of this? I get the exact same on my Galaxy S running CM7.1 and went through this the last update and it's happening again.
I've made sure to remove all files/directories with "com.google.android.music" "com.android.music" and just "music" - obviously be careful not to remove other items. I also cleared both the cache and dalvik-cache, rebooted etc and it still says the application already exists.
Where else could Android be storing app names? I've cleared out the Market data and then checked using SQLiteEditor that the app isn't the Market database files, but I now notice that "Google Music" is listed at the bottom under "Not Installed" as if it thinks it's a paid app!
Fortunately copying the apk into system as you instructed above gets me the app, but even then nothing changes in Market and it still thinks it's "Not installed" unless I force it by using Titanium Backup.

Yes thanks, but that's not the issue. Installing it manually works just fine but at best it's a kludge. Without any signs of the app anywhere on the phone, Market still says it already exists. I'd like to know why so for the next update things work as they should.

I tried downloading an app from the Google Play Store, and the app(poweramp) was only 3 MB. I sill have 0.99 GB of system storage. But market keeps insisting that I don't have enough space. Any fix?
Only poweramp has this problem, dither apparently can install fine.

Actually I had this problem too.
You have to download catlog from the google play . Keep it running .. ( don't pause it ) . Go to the market try to download the poweramp again.. Then when it shows the error again. Go back to the catlog and scroll through the logs , you should see a log like cannot create dir com.max .... ( something like that ) then search that folder and delete it from /data/data or data/app ( if u find that dir in both then delete it from both ) through a file browser like root explorer.

Wipe Cache partion from recovery should help you or as ayush said install catlog , run it , keep it running , install poweramp, then go back to catlog and see where the error is occurring by scrolling through the logs ..

This worked! Thanks!
it works for me too thanks
I am not exactly sure how I found myself here, but I do have a thought you might wish to consider.
You can have an unlimited amount of space for storing your apps, but as long as your dalvik cache resides on your device, it has a limited amount of storage space to use, so when it fills, you will be unable to install apps from the market. Moving dalvik to an Ext4 SD-Ext partition of a size you choose, might resolve the problem.
No guarantees, just something to consider. Good luck!
http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=ziqdu0&s=6i too am having this problem, except i deleted the file and still no luck, heres a screenshot of catlog, i narrowed it down to that, but dont know where to go from there, help
Check the /data/app folder. If you have used some kind of patch, it might leave out the odex file. delete that and try installing it from the play store again.

Poweramp is an odex application. ou just have to go to the /data/app folder using root explorer and delete the com.maxmpz.... dex file that is still there even after the uninstallation. The installation should proceed just fine after that.
Wiping davilk cache will do the work
If you don't want to wipe cache/dalvik and you're trying to update simply go to settings>apps>all, find the app that you're trying to update, clear cache (data if you don't care about it,) and try to reinstall the app. Worked for me.
Also deleting your Google account, restarting, and adding it back has worked for me in the past versions of the play store. Seems like it's a problem on Google's end.

There can be another scenario
Maybe there is an update of Google play or services framework going on in background.
wait for sometime it should work.
or your memory would have filled up completely. delete some apps.

I had problems with google play store too. Then I tried this fix...
I downloaded root explorer, then copied the file
"Vending.apk" (Goolgle market) - not really matter
what version to /system/app (You need to press
the "mount RW" before).
Then changed the permissions on that file (Read to
All and Write to Owner alone).
Once this was done you MUST reboot and after the
reboot it will be working great.
It couldn't hurt trying...

No its not just the apk thats needed for it to work the Lgmms apk needs lgTelephony for mms sms etc thats why you cannot use the one from SU760 iCS thats why i added it to be deleted in updater script along with messages apk as it will fc and services.jar is modded to disable apk uid signatures needed in order for package manager to allow apk to run now you can pretty much pull apks from any other device without worrying aboud uid mismatch error
Now i understand why there is the message's bug...because despite the apk the lgTelephony for mms sms is from SU760...however thanks for your great work! Now i can't test this new fix...however i will!

Locate LGTelephonyKrOemProvider.apk in /system/app and delete it
Locate Messages.apk also in /system/app
Copy the apk's from ZIp
Reboot to Recovery i use CWM dunno about TWRP
Then in CWM mount system
then
adb shell
# rm /system/framework/services.jar
in another cmd prompt
adb push services /system/framework/
back to shell # chmod 644 /system/framework/services.jar
if you wipe data it work with no FC now the thing is the Old Messages apk left some .db database file which causes it have SQL errors hence the FC cant remember the exact path as i Just cleared the data just post Logcat so we can track down that db file and delete it.
Re: Sms[fix][ics][v1]

It is in data/data/com.android.provider.telephony/databases/mmssms.db you need to delete it.
Optimus G is also working. It is very nice. Has themes And popup. I used telephonyprovider.apk from optimus 4x and G mms.apk
I can upload here so you can add it to first post.
So what you need to do is as defcomg said before:
Download zip, extract apks an copy them to /system/app/ before that backup and delete original message.apk and LGTelephonyKrOemProvider.apk. Set permissions to rw-r-r then clear data for LGMmms3.apk from /settings/app setings. Then go to data/data/com.android.provider.telephony/databases/mmssms.db and delete it.
Reboot.
