Hi All
I tried to restore date to my messaging app by titanium back up and then the app disappeared, I think I had a bad backup file. I didn't have another backup unfortunately. I tried to reinstalling it by getting the modded apk from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/themes-apps/app-stock-s6-sms-app-waking-screen-t3105591
But that didn't work, I still have no messaging app.
Can anyone help?
I am running the G920W8 on 5.1.1. I was able to switch system files to writable before adding the messaging app. And I am using ES File explorer to navigate the directories. All help appreciated!
Thank you so much
bump, anyone? still need help to bring it back!!
Short of flashing stock image I don't know what else to suggest..

Hi i deleted mine thinking i can rely on hadcent app only but apparantly handcent needs the message app,
i receive the notification of a new txt message but when i go to handcent to read it, its not there in the conversation....
all i need is for someone to pull the message.apk and .odex file and upload it for me to download if they could be so kind...
thanks
Here you go. This is from Fresh Rom.
thanks but this is not what im looking for, i attempted to get the messages.apk and .odex file from all the roms available and its not there,
if you or anyone have droid explorer and can navigate to /system/app its in there and its called "messages.apk" , thats where i deleted mine from
I think you only need the .apk. The .odex will be built once it gets some configuration data.
ok cool, hoping someone takes 5 mins out of their day to pull just the apk file for me
sorry, i was trying to help out but....
the FRESH rom doesn't have that .apk it uses a "mms.apk"
so i'm going to try to get this posted for you, but
that will require me to recover back to last week before fresh, then pull the .apk and then post it then nandroid restore back to today..
if anyone is running a stock rom then they can pull it. otherwise it will be about 30 minutes..
ok cool thanks ill be patiently waiting
alright....
these files are from my stock-unrooted phone
i couldn't find a "messages.apk" but i grabbed all these hopefully you can make it work.
the only thing i can think of is that the MR update "fixed it" by replacing the stock messaging app. that makes sense right?

edit:you could always flash the RUU and get them back.. or flash a nandroid backup from before you removed them.
got it working, it was the mms.apk file for some reaons it is labeled messages in droid explorer, lol shoulda tried this the first time around, not 4 or so nandroid restores later thanks guys =)
i just happened to have the same problem..
thank you so much for posting the apk. and odex..
u guys are a life saver.. ^____^
stock messaging app on htc inc
how did you re-install the stock messaging apk? when i try to do install it it acts like its installing then it just reboots and it does not install... i use to be able to receive pictures (mms) but now i can't receive at all. someone please help meeeeeeeeeeeeeee! thx i have the apk's on my SD card does it need to be on my phone in order to install it? sorry im a noob at this.
if all else fails (i did the same thing because i wanted a better stock messaging app) you can install go sms. its basically the same thing as handcent but i think it looks more professional.
it actually asked me if i had uninstalled the default messaging app and told me that if i said yes then it would just make itself the default so that was nice and simple =)
good luck. if not permanent this can just be a quick fix.
if someone finds a stock android messaging app that has bubbles please tell me =)
thanks
Mine says application not installed, omg, I accidentally deleted the Original Messaging File from my phone and I tried installing yours, but it says Application not installed. What do I do D:
my calendar kept force closing on me, so I had the bright idea of uninstalling thru titanium backup. I thought by uninstalling, and then restoring my older backup, that I could fix my problem. I was wrong, In doing so, it also deleted the backup file for my calender app. So I got nothing... Any help and guidance would be greatly appreciated. I am rooted and running infused v1.5. Before I installed the rom thru cwm, I made a backup of the stock rom, if that would help.
Thanks!
Edit: I don't really know why our how this worked... I installed an android calendar apk I found by googling. It was a piece of junk, so I uninstalled it, and voila my original calender app appeared!!!

You could try downloading the Infused rom, extracting it(it's a zip file so use whatever you want to extract it) then copy the calendar.apk from system/app to /system/app on your phone.
If anyone can tell me what to do to fix this I'd really appreciate it. I deleted my stock messaging app but now am not able to receive txt messages. Any ideas how to get the messaging app back or how to fix this problem?
Thanks,
Jeff

Are you rooted?
Stock rom? Ever flashed one before?
Are you on gb or froyo?
You have two options.
Download a rom with a compatible mms, extract the mms from the rom, put it on your phone and push it to system/app then reboot. (need to be rooted)
Or
Flash a custom rom from the dev section. All fixed

Open the zip file of whatever rom you flashed on your computer, assuming it was a CWM rom. Look for Mms.apk, copy that to your sd card, and then push it to /system/app using root explorer or root browser (which is free).
Hi everyone,
I ask your opinions / ideas on the next problem with Android 4.0.4 on AllViewP5 Mini:
Willing to work better, I installed the ExDailer and Go Sms Pro to get rid of stock applications that create so many problems.
So it was a good idea, the applications do very well.
Then I came with a bad idea and that is to uninstall stock applications, namely: Contacts_4.5.1.apk and Messaging_4.4.a.apk.
I used EsFile Explorer, I`v created backup and I`v uninstalled them.
The phone worked very well, except for an error that popped; was something about: android.process.acore
Then I got the worst possible idea, namely to remove Contact Storage_4.5.a.apk.
Since then all contacts were killed, The phone does not read any contact.
I tried to revive the system applications with EsFile Explorer, but it did not work. says "failed to install"
I've copied in system / app, but the system still does not load them after reboot.
I tried to sign the apps again with "Tickle My Android", but it did not work either.
Flashing it is a good solution, but I would need a ROM, plus CWM installed, which am not quite familiar.
Does anyone have any ideas?
PLEASE HELP!
FIXED
The system loads stock apps only if they have a specific name.
In my case I had to rename the apps installed in /system/app as:
Contacts.apk
ContactsProvider.apk
Mms.apk
Hi, I uninstalled mms.apk, but without any backup. Please sent me the Mms.apk at [email protected] . I really need it.
Thanks

Hey dude, I followed your solution, found a gz file which contained the Contacts provider app, extracted it, and pushed it to the system/app folder (Using root explorer). Then, I tried to install it from there - but for nothing --> It says "application not Installed". Tried to reboot, nothing.
Any idea?
Same problem do you get slution if yes please reply
"Contact Storage" deleted
i am having the same problem. i uninstalled my "contacts storage" from my phone through super user. now my contacts of phone has gone. i have no idea what to do. please advise.
Titanium Backup Pro will not restore system apps.
Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920T
Titanium Backup 7.1.2 with Pro
Stock rooted with CF-Auto-Root
Tried SuperSU v2.45 - v2.46 - v2.49
The Problem
I made backup of apps that I would like to remove from the phone. I did a test by removing Amazon App. When I try to restore app, Titanium hand at restoring app, spinner will go for as long as I leave my phone on. Kill Titanium, reboot phone and I get a toast popup that Amazon has stopped. Amazon app icon in app draw, I touch to start app and get the same toast popup that Amazon has stopped. Start Root Explorer Pro navigate to system/priv-app Amazon app folder is not there. Navigate to system/app Amazon app is located here, but not in a folder and not with any support files. I tried this with a few other apps and it does not matter if they are located in system/priv-app or system/app same result.
I have search and found older threads that suggest changing Application Processing Mode to Interactive, but no mode changes have helped.
I also tried changing Mount namespace separation in SuperSU.
When applying these changes I have reboot the phone.
Any Ideas, please help.
Thank You

Can I get a Confirmation From Someone.
Hey, im on G925F and I have the same issue. I have USB debug activated/on, rooted, tried various tricks and switching the way of app processing in TB and none worked. I cannot restore previously backedup system apps at all
same problem here!
also, converting a user app to a system app fails the same way!

I too am unable to restore system apps backed up by Titanium Backup with Titanium Backup. I'm running the latest version of Titanium Backup (Pro), stock KitKat 4.4.2 on a Samsung Galaxy Light (SGH-T399N), rooted with SuperSU 2.50+Pro. The restore process never completes but will run forever without any error messages until I kill it externally with Task Manager. Converting a non-system app to a system app behaves the same way...tries forever without completing. From the number of earlier posts in this thread it's obvious I'm not alone. The only suggested solution I've encountered that seems applicable to my situation is to replace SuperSU with Superuser. I'm loathe to do that and hoping the problem is something else.
Same here, already tried Indirect App Processing but no help. Had this problem with my old Xperia V running CM Rom never figured how to fix it
Titanium backup is not supposed to be used to restore system apps. If I'm correct even the developer of the app says not to restore system apps with Titanium.
I have used Titanium backup for years to restore purchased apps but never system apps. Never had a problem reinstalling backups of apps.
