Hi every one.
I am new here. So I'm writing with all the details I can think of.
I'm using HTC desire x jelly bean in India. I've temp rooted the device. Now I run with a twrp touch screen edition revovery. I run the stock version (with odex) Rom. The only changes I made is removal of some bloatware.
The main reason I've rooted my device is to save space by pushing non movable and frequently used apps to system/app .
Since I only have temp root, The way I'm making user apps as system app is as follows
1. creating a backup Apk file either by manually copying from data/app or by clean master.
2 uninstall the app.
3 after entering the twrp recovery, I move the Apk files to system/app ( I don't create any odex files for the moved app)
4 reboot after wiping dalvik & cache.
Its a working method. But my problem is that several apps both that I frequently uses and high size are cannot converted into system apps. After making such apps as system apps, when I try to open them it force closes, crashes, or misbehaving (eg. Shows No internet connectivity even if I'm connected to web). I tried odexing the user Apk. But it not seems to be the problem. I like to know
1 why is this happening.
2 can I identify such apps before moving it to the /system/app
3 how/can I solve this isue ( I don't own a pc).
4 I am writing a list of apps that I've already tried and failed to convert as system apps. If there is no general methods can you suggest methods for the following apps
Quick pick
Mx player
BS player
Chrome
Adobe reader
Google plus
Opera mini
Opera
Google Maps
RAR
Mozilla Firefox
Freecharge
Advance download manager
Google search
Dolphin browser Jetpack
Chess free
Thanks in advance.

According to your topic use link 2SD app which help you to convert system app to user and vice versa don't try to to make important system app to user app otherwise your device may brick

Hello,
i have a small problem, i have HTC Desire running Reflex S and i remove some system apps using Root App Remover but the two apps are annoying me they are called Locations and the Wise Pilot. Locations are getting back after normal restart and the WisePilot i cant remove beacuse i cant find it. Any suggestions ?
Thx.
I would advise you to use Titanium Backup it has a lot more features then just removing apps and has a lot of work put into it but if the app is coming back upon rebooting the phone just freeze the app so it doesnt show up your apps list and is not visible or usable.
Hope this helps.
thx man, but where is the WisePilot stored or how i can freeze it, it does not show in TitaniumBackup
You might be able to remove it with root explorer go to /system/app and delete apk file and reboot

Is there an android rom (for any phone) or phone that has virtually nothing on it besides the REALLY basic apps. Dialling,Texting, browser and maybe the market. I dont even want the calender or the alarm clock or any of the google services such as gmaps and gmail!
If there is no such phone/rom is there a way to do this?

No...lol. you can make one yourself though if you're unlocked. Just grab a rom zip and remove all the unwanted things.

Any feature phone. You don't need a USS 200 smartphone just for that.

Just download any ROM, such as CM7, and remove everything that can be removed without breaking the ROM (For cm7, it would be http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Barebones).
Just open the rom's zip file, delete them from System/app (And data/app, if it exists). Don't unzip it - either use the default windows zip viewer or 7zip/etc to delete.
You might be able to delete some other files as well in the other directories.
You can also install a root uninstaller such as Rom Toolbox or Titanium backup and uninstall them after installing the ROM.
But deleting them won't really improve battery life, or speed, so i don't see any reason not to keep them.
alright xda
i have been modding my firmware basically just switching around apks to improve the system
i removed the default system task manager and i was wondering if anyone had an app or a way to re install it as a user app or using a phone terminal or a root installing app:silly:
using lg c800g
I believe that there are plenty of 3rd party apps avaliable in the Play store which act as task managers. If you're however talking about the system task manager apk which is integrated in the system ROM then you could download your ROM in .zip/.rar format, search for the .apk you deleted and simply transfer it to your SD card and install it.
Protip: use Titanium Backup to remove and ALWAYS MAKE BACKUPS before removing something.
I've been using cyandelta to update CM12. The problem is, i deleted some system apps and files in CM12. after updating with cyandelta, it again flashes the deleted system apps. is there anyway to stop this.? Deleting the apps daily is PITA. However a script can come in handy to delete the apps in one stroke. But i just want to know is there any other alternatives.

+1 on the above :thumbup:
I also like to install Google Now Launcher (Google Search + Google Home) to the system dir, so the package can also do that. I can upload a sample package if needed, but the trick lies in updater-script and it's pretty easy.

[WARNING: XDA Premium 4.0.13+ lacks Signature function - do not update]
If the package you use to update the ROM has those system apps, you'll have them installed every time you flash.
Did you try not deleting them, but just deactivating them?
Hi,
anyone else with the same Problem?
Since KitKat (and still with Lollipop 5.1.1) the Titanium Backup function to include Systemapp Updates to the ROM fails. Happens at all Google Apps, FileCommander and Sony Apps.
There is no Error Message. In some cases it only deletes the App completeley and in other cases the progress is running endless (tested for 1 Hour without completion).
Device is Bootloader unlocked, rooted (SuperSU)....... any Hints?
Hmm I had no issue with kitkat, but it definitely does not work with lollipop.
Issue is with tb it's not going to create a subfolder and put libs in subfolder.
If you want to integrate apps, copy the apk from data directory and paste it over system apk, and then replace all the libs using same process.
Reboot phone so it optimized new system apk, then under normal application management uninstall app and replace with factory version (which will be new version)
Reboot and you should be good, restore data if you need to.

Can you give me the necessary Directorys for Internal Memory Apps and System Apps, please?
It's /data/app/ and system apps are either in /system/app or /system/priv-app/
If you go into TB backup/restore, find the app, touch it for more options, right under the freeze option touch the name and it'll give you exact locations as well

Hi!
Is TB do an update to fix this bug ?
I try to contact them to many times and no one answer me.
Did you find another app to do that ?
Did you still with manual methode ?
Tks
Still broken, only manual method works.
It's like it can't make subfolders in system
Just do it manually not so bad. Copy the updated files from data to system app folder, change permissions and hot reboot.
Android will do the rest.. no data loss or having to install/uninstall.
