Install Asus Keyboard on CM10

Hi guys, I wanted to ask you if someone can help me installing the Asus Keyboard app on my TF300T with CM10. I have the Keyboard.apk , but it gives an error when installing... Any help?

Did you have the odex files too? And you need to manual place into /system/app. Normall install will not work.

You will find the Asus Keyboard apk and odex file in the zip file
Just push it on /system/app

Ok, I'll try it later. Thanks!

It didn't work... Any ideas? :s

Describe? It didn't work.
After placing each file in /system/apps ( I always set permissions as well 644). Reboot. you went to settings/Language & Input, placed a check beside it/Clicked Default and selected it.
If you pushed it with adb permissions may be correct already.

It's the native keyboard from Asus with Odex file.
You have 2 solutions for push these files on your system, but you need root rights:
- 1st: by ADB
adb push XXX YYY : copy the file XXXX from your PC on to your system/app YYY of your phone
- 2nd: by an APK as Root explorer, Es File Explorer etc (with root rights)
just copy and paste thes 2 files to your SDcard and copy and paste again to the system/app folder.
After don't forget to reboot your device.
And finally you went to settings/Language and Input, placed a check beside it/Clicked Default and selected it.

I did the 2nd method right from the beginning - I even set permissions for the files. The problem is that the settings thing stops responding when I try to open it with the files inside system/apps ...

Just reboot when your copy/paste is done

No good... I did everything, copied the files to system/app with root explorer, rebooted, and the keyboard isn't even listed on the settings page...

OK I'll try to duplicate your issue and report back. Which cm10 rom are you using?
I chose cm10 nightlies and I can't get a proper install either, I'm looking into why.

I'm using the 09-11 nightly.

Thanks I am working on it.
I deodexed and that failed to show installed.
Made a flash zip and that failed to show installed.
Now I'm really curious.
I need to flash stock rom and play a little then come back to cm10.
I'll report when I have more info.
I can't make it work no matter what I try, I'm sorry. If I think of anything else I'll reply here.

Maybe they are some missing librares they are in /system/lib/ ? Check the logcat, it should what is missing.

Thanks I'm looking into that now. I'll reflash stock and try to get a better idea what might be missing. I see where it fails and why but haven't been able to relate that to a lib or config yet.
Thanks for the help!
When I do something like this I don't always get it fixed but I certainly learn new things as I go.
I'm not making any progress on this problem, sorry but I'm finished unless something else turns up soon.
Maybe someone else can lend a hand.

I will flash CM next days, as I already unlocked bootloader. Myabe I can find out what is missing, but try to add all the apks from this screen, it from stock.

How to install the stock Samsung browser on Verizon S6

I noticed some people were interested in installing the Stock Samsung browser on the Verizon S6 variant so I figured I'd make a little tutorial on how to do just that.
Steps:
1.) You'll need to download the stock Samsung browser files. This can be done here.
2.) Install Root Browser from the play store. (Obviously make sure you grant it root permissions)
3.) Find the Samsung browser folder you just downloaded from Mega and unzip it. The end result will be a folder named "SBrowser_3.0.38".
4.) Copy this unzipped to your /System/app folder.
--Now we need to change the permissions so that the android system can recognize these newly placed files--
5.) Set the permissions as follows: (To set the permissions, you need to press and hold on the name of the folder or file you wish to edit, then click "Permissions") See screenshots
SBrowser_3.0.38 - rwxr-xr-x
lib (folder) - rwxr-xr-x
SBrowser_3.0.38.apk - rw-r-r
arm (folder) - rwxr-xr-x
libsbrowser.so - rw-r-r
libsecv8.so - rw-r-r
libUCProxySDK.so - rw-r-r
libUCProxyWTF.so - rw-r-r
libwbs.so - rw-r-r
6.) Exit and reboot.
Once you've done this, android will boot up with the "Android is upgrading..." screen. The "Internet" apk should now be in your app drawer.
If this helped, please hit the "Thanks" button!
*Note - I have not figured out how to enable the fingerprint scan for password entry. Not sure this is possible for our variant at this time.
Troubleshooting
If the app appears in the app drawer but force closes itself when you try to open it, you are either missing some files, or you didn't set the permissions correctly. Look at my screenshots and make sure the file sizes and permissions are correct.
If no app appears in the app drawer when you reboot, you probably didn't unzip the file before you pasted it in the /system/app directory. Remember to extract it before you copy over the files! You should have copied the "SBrowser_3.0.38" folder, not the "SBrowser_S6_alemtro" zip.

Any direction on the smart manager app? I'm following the directions in the s4 thread, but no go.

Quite honestly, I was told that the smart manager is a bit of a battery hog and that an app like "Clean Master" does essentially the same thing so I never went about getting that app myself. But from looking at the directions I would just say to make sure you are putting it in the "/system/priv-app" folder instead of the "/system/app" folder and just make sure the permissions match those of other files and folders in that directory. I have heard some people have had success with it so it can be done.

Thanks for the tutorial, I didnt have a problem with setting permissions. But good to see I did it right. Any idea how to install smart manager? Put it in app/priv folder. Set permissions but not working.

Works great! +1

I've managed to get the FingerPrint working for autocompleting on the Verizon Galaxy S6 Edge, and posted it over on the app thread there. If you'd like me to get it working for the regular S6 send me the SecSettings2 folder within system/priv-app.

Make sure the permissions are exactly like it is for the browser. As for Viper, I haven't installed it yet. Haven't had time. Did you try rebooting after you made the changes? It should say updating apps.

I'm convinced that smart manager just will not work on some versions. Dunno why, but it won't. I have tried everything I can think of..no go

[Q] How do I Reinstall\Flash the ContactsStorage app?

I have a OnePlus One CM11 rooted.
I read a post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2064859&highlight=deleted
And therefore I "played" a little bit with my phone with those things:
1) \System\priv-app\ContactsProvider.apk
2)ContactsStorage from Setting ->Apps->All->ContactsStorage
Somehow I ended up with the situation that:
1)ContacsStorage does not appear at the apps list.
2)The directory \data\data\com.android.provider.contacts have disappeared.
I want to reinstall\flash the ContactsStorage app.
I know that reinstalling the rom will fix it, but I'm trying to avoid it.
Do you know of any other way I can do it?

Extract it from your ROM zip. Copy back to it's original location with a file manager (Root Explorer), set permissions and reboot.

Then you are doing spmething wrong. What do you use to move? Is system set to R/W? permissions set? Same folder?

The problem that the apk is vanishing after reboot is not a permission issue. Try a better file manager (in my case Root Explorer never fails). Mount system as R/W and do the rest.

The apk is NOT vanishing, it stays there.
The app of ContactsStorage is vanished from the apps list permanently.
As well as the folder in \data\data of com.android.providers.Contacts.
The option to sync google contacts is gone as well.

This is NOT my work I'm only posting a link to the original thread. Fully working! The keyboard is weird but kind of cool.
How I installed. I downloaded every file, I wanted to try it all. then extracted them all to the same folder. Then I copied the priv-app folder into System root/system using FX Explorer (you need root) any root Explorer will do the trick. After that just reboot. With the launcher you can use icon packs as well!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3244542

Don't forget to thank @entrysky for all his hard work.

Mentions that CWM or TWRP Recoveries are needed?

I just extracted the zips then copied the priv-app into System using a root explorer and rebooted. Worked for me, I'm guessing flashfire might work but could take longer to do.

Hope this helps.

Still not quite sure exactly what you are doing here. Each Zip has it's own priv-app folder. What exactly are you combining before putting it into the system folder?
FYI: Flashing zips in order with Flashfire didn't work.

I extracted each one into the same folder, so all the apps ended up in the same priv-app folder as seen in this pic. Then I copied the priv-app folder.

Here is a step by step guide with pictures.
1) download the files.
2) get RAR from Google play. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rarlab.rar
3) open RAR and go to where you download the files, select all the files you want (see first PIC)
4) click the extract button and tick overwrite without prompt. (See PIC 2) then click OK.
5) using a root explorer open the files you just extracted i use FX
6) open the system folder (see PIC 3)
7) copy priv-app (see PIC 4+5)
8) go to your system(ROOT) (see PIC 6)
9) scroll down to the system folder then open it (see PIC 7)
10) in FX there is a padlock at the top to allow read/write click this (see PIC 8, 9 and 10)
11) Go to clipboard then paste select merge/overwrite (see PIC 11 and 12)
12) Long press the middle button on the back of your phone in the middle of volume up/down and select reboot.
13) click thanks

Very much appreciate the effort! Unfortunately, even though I followed your directions perfectly, I still don't have any of the apps. I'm not sure if using flashfire to flash the files previously screwed something up.

That's strange? Did you download 1-4 as these are the main files you need. As you can see its worked for me. Have you tried to fix permissions?

Thank you for sharing. BTW, have you tried BB HUB? also, what about permissions? Maybe I missed but you didnt mentioned anything about it.

I've used the hub its quite handy having all your notifications in one place, also the password keeper is very handy for storing and generating passwords.
Permissions need to be 644 there are apps which will fix it all automatically for you or you can do it manual set to read/write then read and read. See PIC

I have copied resources, productivity edge, services, launcher and hub, but nothing works. Changed permissions for folders and files.. I took only priv folders from zips and coppied to system..

That's strange, i can't be the only one it works for? Did you download the BlackBerry exchange services fixed?

priv folder in fixed zip is empty, no apk inside... btw I extradited it on PC, then transferred to sd.

Strange? I've zipped what I used and uploaded it to my Google drive there is also 2 apps in the app folder I didn't bother with these t.b.h. I've only just noticed them lol. Try extracting the zip the copy app and pri-app into your root system folder let me know if it works? You might have a corrupt download or 2.

Question Permission denied in data folder under android

I need to modify a folder under the data folder in android, I can navigate to it but don't have write access. I wish to do this without having to root my phone. I have tried various folder programs and no luck. There should be a trick out there. Please help!!! TIA

Unless there's some trick(s) I don't know of yet, which is possible as I have fallen off the rooting scene after I rooted my S6 Edge Plus but things were a lot different then, as far as I know that's a big No

What folder is it?

download Google Files. Hold the app and goto app info, In last allow both "modify system" And "install unknown app" and you can copy and move from and to data folder now.
Android 11 onwards does not allow non OEM signed apps to access data folder

Use a file manager app that has access, such as File Manager +
Locate the folder of the app which you get permission denied prompt when pasting files or folders inside. Rename that folder to something similar. Create a new folder with the original folder name. Now paste everything inside. Run the app.
