[Q]APK Backup

i need an app on Android 1.5 which can Backup System apps as APKs.I need to back up the Google apps(Market,gmail etc). Please tell me of an app that can do this and tell me if i need to root my device.
Thanks
You need to root your phone then you can use either SU file manager $1.97 or Root explorer(file manager)$4.00
You need to root it because generally you need super user permissions to manipulate system/app files.
It may be worth it to try a free app that is used for file managing (it will be a related app to the above stated) To attempt to copy the apk file to another location.
Hope that helps
EDIT >> not sure of whether or not those apps are on andriod 1.5 marketplace.
If you don't want to shell out the cash, I believe the free Root Uninstaller (which als requires root permissions) can backup any installed application as an apk or configured to perform backups automatically anytime an app is installed or updated.

Just place/move the zip at the main area (root) of /sdcard/ you should have no problems moving files around in ES.
If it still does not work, try "root browser" (by JRummy) in playstore

Just go to root folder and find oem folder/app and delete those apps simple
Just install Link2SD or SystemUninstall App from playstore.
Those App only work for rooted device.
Uninstall the useless Apps. But be careful with it, don't delete system functioning App.
After uninstall completed, reboot the device.

Link2SD fails to integrate Play Store and YouTube updates into /system

I have a Sony Xperia ZR C5502 on Lollipop 5.1.1 (build number 10.7.A.0.222). It was previously on KitKat 4.4.4 and updated using a self created pre-rooted ZIP using PRFCreator and flashed using Philz Touch recovery. On booting I found out that it was not rooted. Hence I rooted it using Kingroot and then changed to SuperSU. I have Link2SD and linked a few applications to a second partition (ext3) on SD card. I also use Link2SD to integrate any updates to system apps into /system folder so that I can save the precious internal storage.
All other functions have been working correctly except that I am not able to integrate updates of Play Store and YouTube into /system. (updates to even Google Play Services were integrated without any trouble)
Whenever I try to integrate these two after a long time I get a dialog showing a big list of applications failed to install or something due to /system being full. If I go to /system/app or /system/priv-app (according to if the attempt was for YouTube or Play Store) I see either YouTube.t or PhoneSky.t directory which is full of copies of installed .apks of other applications basically duplicating the whole /data/app I think.
While trying to investigate this further I tried to copy the com.android.YouTube.apk installed in /data/app (the updated version) to /system/app/YouTube as YouTube.apk manually using ES File Explorer and Root Explorer both of which have been granted root permission by SuperSU. The copy attempt fails. The same is the story for PhoneSky also. The permissions of both the directory and apk seems to be in order.
Also I cannot absolutely write anything into these folders. But then I also tried to write into any other directory which too fails.
My knowledge has reached its limits here. Hence requesting advice from people with better knowledge for further help.

How to properly move an app to the system on new Android patches (Oreo 8/8.1)

I have tested myself the old ways to put an app as system app on Oneplus 6, but I didn't know that with new Android patches there are some new issues and permissions required (like you can still use lucky patcher, link2sd, es file explorer,..., but you have to add some xml manually, depends on the specific app).
You still need root (magisk) with this method.
The best and the easier way I have found is to use a magisk module: App Systemizer (maybe you can find it as an app or not, idk).
Search in dowload section, in magisk manager, install it, then install a terminal emulator.
Write and enter:
su
systemize
choose 1 and it will provide you a numbered list of your installed apps
choose the correspective number
choose 2 to move to system/priv-app
It will provide the additional xml that are needed now to move an app to system; then reboot and the app will be properly moved to system.
[MOD EDIT]Do not ask for donations.[/MOD EDIT]
Link2sd
Hi, thanks for this info, i have a question
This whole process you explained here, it has to be done without revert the process done with link2sd or it has to be done fresh with link2sd not installed.
Thanks
