[APP][4.4.2] AOSP Browser (NO ROOT REQUIRED)

AOSP Browser for 4.4.2 Kit Kat No Root is required
READ ME FIRST
First let me say, I have searched around and did not seem to find a working AOSP browser for Android Kit Kat, luckily someone posted some apks from One Plus One. So please read:
Credits go to blackhand1001 who started the original thread, but then his files no longer work for most of us i believe.
Credits go to the CM team for the One Plus One/files and M4rt1n94 for uploading the browser apk in his original thread.
FLASH PLAYER DOES NOT WORK, i have tried the files provided by adobe from here. If someone can some how tweak the latest Flash Player 11.1 for Android 4.0 (11.1.115.81) to collaborate with the browser then that would be great.
BOOK MARKS SYNC from @blackhand1001 DOES NOT WORK either. I hope someone or him can provide a working one, please
I have tested this on Stock Sony Xperia Z 4.4.2 and Xperia Z2 Tablet 4.4.2. It may or may not work for you, but it should work for all Kit Kats. Wish you best of luck. I do not know does it work for FW below Kit Kat, you tell me, if it does not work then try the original files from blackhand1001.
INSTALLATION
Same method provided by blackhand1001 from his original thread.
Download the "signedbrowser.apk" file that I have modified from below and place it in your phone's internal or external storage.
Go to general settings / security / check unknown sources
Use es file manager or root explorer (the non root version) from the play store and navigate to system / apps / and install Browser ProviderProxy.apk NOTE: it will state installation failed (that is normal)
Reboot your device manually
Navigate to the downloaded file you have done in step 1 and install the "signedbrowser.apk"
Uncheck unknown sources from your settings / security
DONE
Please hit the thanks button below and all the people I have mentioned up there.
If we already have 4.4, wouldn't we already have this?
Never mind, I found the answer. They have discontinued the old native browser.
Didn't work on M8 Verizon, but Browser proxy installed
Hey guys, is there are any ways to fix black screen issue
off topic but what is your theme? Really nice ! also your app for the floating sofkeys
I don't have Browser ProviderProxy.apk in any directory on my phone, so I just downloaded and installed browser apk and it works. Xperia M CM11.
Didn't work for me on an Xperia Z1 (C6903, stock 4.4.2) - probably because com.android.browser is actually the Browser Small App, and so is signed differently. Worked on my Optimus 2X (P990, unofficial CM11) though.
I think I can uninstall the small app, but I do like it so. Your mileage may vary
Didn't work on Moto G.
The problem is android WebKit where google has squeezed it and removed some commits from it in order to force people use their new default android web browser, chrome!..so whatever browser depends on that engine in kitkat it will lack a lot of feature like uploading any file to the web!
that's why Firefox and Chrome depend on their native web engines instead of relying on the unsupported webkit.
Finally! An AOSP browser which can open tabs using the pie on KK! Thank you!

Samsung Galaxy NotePro 12.2 LTE (SM-P905)
I got BrowserProviderProxy.apk located at system/app - not system/apps (this don't even exist), and it installs normally, doesn't give any error.
Then reboot and trying to install signedBrowser.apk --> "Installing App --> App not installed"
So no go for that device :/

Same thing happens with my Verizon Galaxy S4 (SCH-I545)
There's an upgraded version of the 4.0 ICS browser in the app store called ics browser plus.

Must be a Samsung thing. Same exact thing happens to other Samsung devices to.
Proxy app works signed browser not installed on nexus 5 just swell try again
Is it the aosp browser from 4.4 sources? Because that one sucks, it's based on chrome, not webkit.

[Q]how to enable all the widgets on lockscreen?

Stock rom can only put several widgets on lockscreen,but the cm version can put ervery laucher widgets on the lockscreen
anybody can help me with this ?thank u
Yes!You can,but for that you should be rooted and xposed should be installed.
You can do it by installing"samsung multiple widgets" in xposed and enable it and reboot your phone.
Don't say hit tnx if I helped.

Is not working to you because probably you're using the old version of Samsung Multiple Widget xposed module.
From some months the original dev dropped the project and stopped developing to 4.3, no 4.4.
Luckly for us, another dev picked up the project and made a 4.4.x compatible module, here http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-samsungmultiplewidgets-kitkat-t2690190
This worked for me well, i also suggest to install "Camera on lockscreen" xposed module, wich allows you to use the camera directly from the lockscreen even with pattern/pin lock.
Hope to be helpful, if so, hit thanks
Tnx, But I already have that version and also I made fully Wipe to my device and it still dont work.
Edit: I try to install that again and when I try to select widget from the lockscreen a crash massage show up and says the keyguard process crashed and I have just the original widgets and not the all widget I have.

Sky Go (Germany)

Hello people!
Im facing difficulties using my skygo account on Z1. I always used to view by APP transfered from my nexus 7 (rooted) - It always worked flawlessly. Now I updated by transferring new version and starting the app results in a flashing "hacked" screen. Now while this is an official Version from PlayStore I think its a new thing by Sky itself to make it unusable on unsupported device or something. I tried using apk downloaded from Web with same result.
Now - does anyone have any way to still use sky go on xpetia z1?! Maybe an older version or a workaround??
Edit:
Found solution:
1. Install xposed framework with native hook
2. Install skycast module
3. Reboot
4. Launch SkyGo.
Or just follow instructions for skycast module !!

App Not Installed Error

As the thread title says I am having troubles sideloading a particular app. I have modded whatsapp latest application (only color mod nothing much), I tried installing it in my Gionee M3 (Android 5.0) device using package installer the installation screen appeared for like 1-2 mins and then I got this message App not installed. I tried recompiling app, signing app, zipalign none worked. I tried installing same app into different devices such as Amazon Kindle 7 HD (running Beanstalk 5.0.2), HTC Desire 616 (Stock) and Samsung Galaxy Core(Stock) and it worked normally in every device. Please Help me out.

It looks like your device's rom/kernel have some security kinda feature that is preventing the app from getting installed

Can't move apps to system

Hey guys I need your help. Whatever I do, whatever app I use. Everytime I move a app to system and restart phone the app is completely gone. I can't find it anywhere. Lucky patcher tells me the system app doesn't exist. It just vanishes. Used a lot of different apps but still no luck. Anyone help?
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S6 SM G920F (phone itself thinks it's a SM G935F [Galaxy s7? edge] I don't know why)
ROM: Noble nature ux - android 6.0.1
Status: rooted + xposed framework

Check this post. The answer you need might be in there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/help/install-gps-spoofer-app-t3375755
For example that you need the original apk file and not the one as it is installed.

So you think manually moving the apk to system should work ?
