Hi, I would like to know what folder apps on both the system and sd card can be found in. This is so that I can can change app permissions.
Thanks!

You can only change permissions of apps in "system/app"!

What permissions? The read write permissions or the AndroidManifest permissions?
U can't change the manifest permissions, and judging by your knowledge, u don't wanna change read write permissions either

For moving apps to System/Apps, you need to be rooted!
If you are, use Root Explorer to copy app from your sdcard and paste them in System/Apps and then change their permission to rw-r--r--

Use Root Explorer. Name the old SystemUI.apk to SystemUI.bak just in case somemthing goes wrong(Pay attention to permissions). Paste the NEW SystemUI.apk into the System/App folder, set permissions and reboot.

Sure. Use your root file browser to get to the /system directory. Replace the system.ui file that is there with Bigfau's modded version.
Fyi: Next time just post inside the q&a thread that is already open so that the forum is more organized.
Whoops! I'm too slow
A lot of thanks. I'm newbies, noob to android. Thanks.

The status bar should disappear when you rename it. That is normal. After you paste the modded version in the /system directory, the status bar isn't going to come back until you reboot.
If you rebooted already, I would double check that the file is there.
I do it,happy too. Now I'm testing it.
As a further problem,the clock can not I select update,always GMT,the GMT +7 time I need, how to fix this?

Install Root Explorer. Open it and go in system/app. Right click on Browser.apk and in drop-down menu select Permissions, check rw,r,r, O.K.
and reboot phone. Mount need be R/O, and not R/W.
I tried everything but still won't work!
I allways have this message: Unfortunately, Browser has stoped.

My I497 tablet is not rooted either. I have Root Exploer installed and it did just what you wanted. Try a different file explorer/manager. Possibly the system folder is just too big for copy and paste. Try smaller sections.

Why are you trying to backup the whole system folder? Try smaller folders inside /system.

Ok, i have modified my flies.apk using winrar and when i pasted in system/app it was not fine.There were two my files . It should have asked to overwrite...
Then i deleted the old one and copied the new one. Then i rebooted it
Nothing was there. My new modified my files was not there. It was in system/app but not shown in app drawer(it was not hidden). I restored my old one (Thanks to titanium backup) but now it is not shown in system/app.
Well i want to know is there a problem in modified apk?
I have also signed it
I have used this method
Opened my files with winrar
Changed things
Closed winrar
Signed it
Is this correct?

I didn't mean mounting /system R/W
I mean your modded apk file permission, use an app like Xplore or Root Explorer to give it 644 permission in order to see it in the app drawer.
Or just install it as user app and use Titanium Backup to convert it to system app.
But how do i do with titanium backup as its not installed
In titanium backup old my files is shown not new one
