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.

[Q] Accidentally uninstalled Accounts & Sync App

Yep, I I accidentally the whole thing. I clicked the wrong button in TIBU.
Anyways, I got the phone yesterday, updated it to 2.3.6, and rooted it, but otherwise left it alone. I just rooted so I could restore my apps from my previous phone with TIBU. I did not restore data. Today, I was trying to fix an issue I was having with accounts and sync, and I meant to freeze it, but I hit uninstall and wasn't paying attention to the prompts, so it uninstalled it. It was backed up, but I can't re-install it. I even found the app's .apk in system/app folder, and tried to re-install it but it will not, it just tries for like a second and then says "Not installed". The option is now missing from my settings menu.
I would really like a way to fix it without having to wipe and re-install the OS, but if I have to I can.
nb4 "did you search?" yes, I did. I couldn't find anything that helped.
Thanks in advance, everyone.

Download a rom for your phone thats2.3.6 and unzip it. Go into system/app and take the apk that u need. Push it to your system/app folder with root explore. Change permissions to the ones on the pic and reboot and u should be good.

I pushed the file and changed permissions to exactly as shown in the picture, and it still came back with "application not installed"
Edit: DERP, big time derp, forgot to reboot. one minute.
Edit 2: changed permissions, rebooted, still would not install.

I did that, but the Applications and Sync option is not there.
If I did a recovery update to 2.3.6 again, would that fix it perhaps? or will it not let me update it that way since it's already on 2.3.6?

Actually, I did just that, and it fixed it! sigh. I wish I had thought of that right away. Now I'm back to my original problem that I was trying to fix, though. When i try to add my facebook account in accounts and sync, I click on add account, select the facebook icon, and it just goes back to the previous page without doing anything.
Oh well. At least I got the big problem fixed, thank you for helping.

reflash whatever rom you currently have, but don't wipe the data/factory reset. Since the file you need is in the system folder it'll rewrite.

I just ran the 2.3.6 update again. It fixed it, but it turns out that the problem I was trying to fix in the first place which led me to uninstall the app was not a problem at all, it was google locking out facebook sync on nexus S meh, whatever. I only did it for the pictures anyways. Thanks though!

[Q] Pushing apks to system

Hi guys,
I am trying to install the Asus PadFone clock apk, which requires being in system apps.
I pushed it to system/apps and set permissions to rw/r/r and rebooted- nothing happened
I tried wiping cache and dalvik cache but still nothing.
I used root explorer to push it
Any suggestions?
EDIT:
Never mind, I solved the problem. It turns out the APKs I was pushing needed to be de-odexed before I could use them.

After the file is in /system/app/ and you set permissions, install it manually from there then reboot.

Are you running Stock? If you are then you won't be able to install a system app like that. Happened to me, and trust me it really sucks. Only other real solution I found was to flash a custom ROM for example CM 10. You could also try getting a flashable zip file for the apk and try installing it that way. That could work.
Let me know how it all works out for you,

Should I try to make it into a flashable zip?

Flash bootv21e from Ressurection guide in General forum,turn phone on,let it appear to recovery,do factory reset(not sure if this is required), then flash back XBSA404 and turn on again so recovery could be booted.

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]
I just assumed you had to flash the zip through recovery, I tried it in TWRP and had all sorts of issues. Maybe I will try flash CWM tonight and try your process.

the above post is the manual way im not sure if the delete command works in the updater script which may leave the files and cause all kinds of hell lol

hi defcomg. your rom is odexed, or deodexed? im on odexed xbsalls 5.2v and this your fix cant work on this rom for me. both apps from fix get to FC and phone lost service.

Defcomg....for "wipe data" you mean..."wipe data/factory reset" in CWM menu or in system and storage "wipe /data"...i think the second but in this way we will have some applications that are installed on the phone that won't work? Or i'm wrong?

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.

App not installed

So a lot of apps just refuse to install on my Nexus 5. They just don't install. After I press Install on the permissions screen, it just gives me an error "App Not Installed". I've tried installing from the apk as well. I have tried deleting all the /data folders. I have changed my ROM too. Anyone has a fix for this?

Nope. It was actually something in android itself. Had to change the default app install location from Auto to Internal using the terminal. Since the nexus 5 doesnt have and external SD, apps cant be installed on it but sometimes androids "Auto" install location doesnt work and tries to install apps into the external sd card. Thats why the app installs fail.
