[Resolved] [Q] Can I move these Apps from System to User ? - General Questions and Answers

Hi guys! So I just wanted to ask If I can move these Apps (without any problems) from system to user apps?..
. Google Camera + Gallery
. Gmail
. Google Maps
. Google Play Services
. Google Play Store
. Google Search
. Google Text to Speech Engine
. Hangouts
. Youtube
. SuperSU
Thanks for your attention!

Yes I believe you can. Go on play store and download an app called root app delete. You can do many other things like uninstall system apps. Change names, icons, etc.

Even if something goes wrong, it is very easy to push the apk back to /system, fix permissions and reboot, so go ahead!

Camera and Gallery should be in system/app

There is this spreadsheet and other sources around the forum, but I would use a Custom ROM like Darthstalker 7 which already has bloatware removed.

Can you explain me how to fix them please? =(

Just copy the apk back to /system/app and then change their permissions to match the permissions of the other apps (I can't remember what the exact permissions are) and reboot and the app will be back in system and should work fine.

How ??

If you use a root file manager there will be an option to change the permission of a file that you select. Just press and hold the file and select change permission. I use es file explorer for example.

My permissions were already set to this, and I am still having FC Issues with the latest Play Store. It closes as as soon as I attempt to download an app (Update or New Install). Once it force closes, I cant even open it again without clearing the data.
I rooted my Samsung Gio for the purposes of removing my carrier's bloat ware and moving apps across to the SD Card. Google Play was one of the apps I moved across. Ever since I did this, I have not been able to run the store and have been getting the same error message as everyone else. I also tried downloading different versions of the Play app but to no avail.
I'm trying to work this out but have not had much luck so far.

Google Play Services D:

What is this app for ? It installs itself and when uninstalled, it again uses our data and gets downloaded. The main problem is that our explorer have very less memory and it takes around 8 MB. how to get rid of it ?

I think it's an addon to Play Store

its a Google play service. come along with newly updated play store. It is just work as medium which provide u to communicate from ur pico to play store.
Any way to get rid of it ...? Because it is using 8 mb of my precious internal memory !
Sent from my HTC Explorer A310e using xda app-developers app
No, you cannot remove it, as you have seen. it is a system app, required for play store & google apps. basically for all the app feedback / statistics report, this app is used.
i know how much we all love our internal storage.
just root ur phone & use sd-ext partition, increase internal space !! :good:

Google is getting ridiculous you know that app is required to run Google apps like youtube etc. When you open then they will say please install Google play services and open you the app in play store lol
anyone figure out how to get it to install when on custom ROM? It must be seeing something on my phone it doesn't like because I try to install and it fails.
This is on a rezound. Going to try and backup working version on my tablet and restore on phone.
If you flash gapps.zip in custom rom, then automatically Google play services is installed.
Otherwise, it's not necessary.

Avoid downloaing gapps.zip..

Does it drive you crazy to download the gapp.zip package to get all the Google apps while flashing a custom rom like cm ??
Well no more downloading the large file again....
This iz a simple yet effective solution...
Unless you are upgrading to a later version of android , gapps.zip will have the same apps as they are currently in ur phone...
Even when u r updating to a later version of android you can use the method....
So here's what to do:
Basically we would create apk file of the current Google apps on ur system and install it later...
Simple. Isn't it ?
So just download any app that can create apk files of the application installed like "app backup and restore" ....
If u r using this app, then go to setting and you would find a option to show system applications. Check that and you would find all the applications in the list...
If using any other restore app , check for the same option in setting.
Tik the required applications like gmail, maps, playstore, drive, transport etc...
I would recommend to archive the whole lot of google apps...
Create the apk file...
Go ahead , flash your rom and just use these apk and get going...

Saving app apk

How do I save an app apk and put it on my computer. Because I want to save the flappy bird apk so I can give it to my friends and keep it for myself
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
Ok you can do this in many ways.
If your phone is rooted,then install ~
1]Root Uninstaller from Google Play which automatically backs up all installed applications to sd card. Note that you can also back up applications manually using this app.
2]a file explorer like root explorer or fx file explorer. Then, go to system/sd/apk, where all installed application files would be present. Copy and paste it to sd and backup to pc.
Hit the thanks button if it helped.

Hi,
you can use Share Apps from play store...
Share Apps really share your apps' installation package(APK) with your friends directly.
Share Apps will share you app(include system app) to:
Email,Dropbox,Google Drive,Bluetooth,Facebook etc.
Some other similar types of more apps are available on play store.... plz check...
I think these all work without root...
if you both have rooted devices u may use Titanium backup app to bundle ur app in .zip file & ur friend can use flash it thru recovery / cmw recovery....

how remove google chrome browser

hi friends how can i totally remove this chrome from xperia E ? i have rooted phone also i try using root app delete but still showing me that it goes back to factory settings
also i dont need google + kiosk google play
Try deleting it with titanium backup.
ok ok
delete it from system/app
or try to delete those apps from system/app, back up first though :cyclops:
Simplest method if your phone is rooted : Download link2sd app from playstore.
Select chrome from the app and click ->Actions->delete. It'll show that app will be replaced by factory settings. Click ok.
Then again click Actions -> Delete. That should remove it for good.

Google play services is essential. It updates you're apps. The problem is that google play services consumes a lot of ram. Solution is - convert it to user app and then greenify!!
I'm not really sure about the gapps part, though.

I believe you could remove the themes from vendor/overlay/framework, if you are not using them. If you are using any of them , then you would be in trouble.
