[Q] JB 4.2.2 Obb folder is write protected?! - Samsung Galaxy S II Plus

Hello,
I just flashed the last JB 4.2.2 for Germany but I can't copy files or folders to /obb folder. I'm getting error saying "The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected".
This is just for the /obb folder. I can copy files everywhere except /obb.
Any solutions?

i had the same problem too. the only solution i tried is repack it to .rar/zip then copy to phone. then using file manage to extract it out to obb,that way,it can be copied.

Need help re-installing SystemUI.apk

So I recently rooted my phone and decided to flash a .zip to add a wifi toggle to the notifications menu. It was only after I flashed it that I realized that the .zip was for ICS, and I am running OTA Jelly Bean. My phone isn't bricked, but when I turn it on I receive a message stating that "systemui.apk has stopped responding", which makes it impossible to do almost anything on the phone. I found the Jelly Bean systemui.apk, but I have no way of getting it onto my phone or SD card (my computer recognizes my phone as a CD, and I can't find the setting to make it recognized as a media device). My question to you is, is there any way to get the .zip onto my phone without having to buy a card reader for my computer?
Dropbox?

My suggestions: reinstall Samsung drivers, use adb, restore a nandroid, or flash ROM in Odin.

I managed to get the .apk file onto my phone, but I am unable to install it. I have enabled the installation of apps from outside the play store so I am confused as to why I can't install it. Does anyone know how I can install it?
Have you put it in the correct folder? If so, have you changed the permissions of the file to that of the rest of the files in the folder?

I put in in the /system/apps folder, and changed the permissions to match the other files. Still no luck installing. What are my options at this point?
I solved the problem by simply restarting my phone, the systemui.apk is not an app you can manually install!

Pipo M9 with 4.2.2 obb folder location

Hi
i have just installed the new 4.2.2 on my M9
its working like a charm
but when i try to install (big) games apk +obb
i copy the obb data to
.sdcard/Android/data/Obb (created that folder wasnt exist before)
the game stuck in some kind of a loop
i read that in 4.2.2 i need to copy the content to Data/media/obb (allready exist)
please assist
thanks
TK
After the first time u installed a huge app don't just put the obb file right away. Try to open the game once, and after that close it. It should create the Obb folder path by itself. If u make the folder by ur own, it may be worked, but sometimes the app u've just installed will confuse to track the folder path since u already made one.
Found solution
Hi
i found the solution
i have installed from the playstore the ff6 (fast & furius 6 - free)
it instaled the OBB folder in android/data/obb
then i have copied my OBB data to the same folder and the game worked
thanks \

Editing an APK

So i want to modify the stock AOSP android browser. (Using a galaxy Note 2).
I removed the original secbrowser.apk out of the sys/app folder and copied it to my pc. Rebooted phone.
On my pc, I just want to take an image file out out of the apk. I renamed the apk to a zip. Deleted the file (while still unpackaged) and then put the apk back on the phone. (Per instructions i read on here)
However, for the life of me I cant get it back into the sys/app folder. Permissions for the file are rw -r-r just as the original file.
The original file is able to be moved in and out of the sys/app folder without trouble. The new one however, not so lucky.
Am I completely missing something here?

Or try other (complicated but reliable) method.
Decompile with apktool.
Edit/Delete any PNG files.
Recompile by apktool.
Copy META-INF from original apk to new apk using 7zip.
Push and give permission 644(rw-r--r--).
Believe me I have done this hundreds of times. Not a single fail.

[Q] Why some .so files cannot be copied to lib folder?

Hi
I'm using stock android 5.0.1 on my nexus 5. I found an article about installing HTC one M8 camera on nexus5.
"nexus5.wonderhowto.com/how-to/get-htc-one-m8s-camera-app-your-nexus-0160134/"
I tried to flash 2 zip files into the rom using TWRP. TWRP says successful. but nothing happens. (it works on CM12).
I looked at /system/lib folder and realized that some of .so files are not there. then tried to copy them using root explorer but I get error that files cannot be copied. (there are no problems about being root or write permission ...) .
So I'm wondering what is going on here. any ideas?

[Q] How can I restore a system app with .odex file ?

Hi,
I've deleted the app Docs that was in system\app\DocumentsUI.
There was the file DocumentsUI.apk in this folder and a subfolder named arm with the file DocumentsUI.odex like every system app.
I'd like to know how can I restore this app. I've tried to put back in place all the files but Android don't recognise the app...
Thank

Have you set the permission of both apk and odex file? Both file must be given rw-r--r-- as permission.
Yes but it didn't change anything...
The phone recognise the app if I put the .apk in directly in system/app and not in system/app/DocumentsUI but then it can't find the .odex file even if I put it next to the .apk...
It'll work without the odex won't it?
