[Completed] DELETED SYSTEM APPS [SOLUTION] (ROOT REQUIRED) no PC just Prayers :) - XDA Assist

You need: ROOT - File Explorers (I Prefer using ES File Explorer) good heart, determination, and Pray First.
after googling the solution for this, i found the tutorials on other sites useless.
i have the situation that i deleted important system apps like android system webview, email, and exchange services.
it was a bit late when i found that those apps are responsible for your browser, messages and other internet dependent apps to run. without this systems apps you cant open your apps and they will automatically force close.
for this to be fixed you need to mount the apk files back to /system/app partition. but other ppl have the problem that their apps wont install. i found that the reason behind this are the permissions and the way you copy/cut things.
for example i have my Email.apk on sd card and cut then paste it to my system/app. u cant do it just like that because the apk will lose its icon and the apk will not install after reboot.
here's how i did it.
Open ES file explorer. configure the root permissions, mount r/w
navigate to where the apk file is then copy it to the root of your internal storage.
next you must rename it to its package name (for example i have "Email.apk" i use the properties option on ES F.Ex to know what is the package name and i got "com.android.email-1.apk"
before you can move this apk file to your /system/app. you must configure the permission of the folder for the app icon to stay
i set the permission folder of /system to rwx r-x r-x
then for /app rwx rwx rwx.
you can now paste your apk to /system/app
after that set the permission of the apk to rw- r-- r--
after that reboot your device. pray. and you will see the app back on your menu. Congrats! ))))))))
(do the same if you have encountered it with .odex files) cheers!

[Q] DSP Manager

I flashed Cyangenmod 7.1 RC, flashed Frank's Mod to remove all CM7 apps, flashed dark launcher theme.
I copied DSPManager.apk to SDcard prior to flashing Frank's Mod. But it says it can't be installed.
Is there a way to install DSPManager again?
Thanks!
You have to install it back to system/app folder and set permissions if using root explorer or adb push it back. Just hitting install will not do it.

Thanks for the reply.
But how do I do that?
I moved the apk file to system/app, changed Permission (selected RWX for owners) but it still won't install.
It won't let me change permissions at all inside sdcard.
Instructions for installing apk with root explorer:
1. navigate to file and copy apk
2. navigate to system/app
3. tap on r/w at the top
4. paste all apk
5. change permissions to match the other apks's in the system/app directory.
6. Reboot

Guide-Easy Way to Re install Deleted Applications

The easiest way, at least for me, to get an app into /system/app is to use Root Explorer to copy the apk into /system/app.
To do this:
In Root Explorer, copy the apk file you want to put in /system/app
Navigate to the /system/app directory
Tap the Mount R/W button on the top right
Tap Paste
Scroll down to the pasted apk, long press on it and select Permissions (you'll see 9 check boxes when you do this)
Check the Read and Write buttons for User, and only the Read boxes next to Group and Others, then tap OK (once you're done, the read/write permissions under the app name should be the same as all the other apps listed (rw-r--r--))
Reboot.
If anybody want any system app,i have backup of all the stock rom apps...let me know if somebody want...

Onda V711 Quick review and Modifications to make more "English"

I have been using an Onda V711 Tablet for a couple weeks now and have been working on fine tuning it to work properly.
I wanted to post a few modifications that I have done in order to get all of the bugs worked out.
1) Keyboard shows ALL english words as misspelled. -- Fix is to replace LatinIME.apk and add Latin imeDictionarypack.apk with an english version. Now the built in dictionary will work properly. Like all Onda tablets, the unit comes with a Chinese dictionary and even when you change the language the dictionary does not update.
2) No Contacts.apk app. I installed a default contacts.apk app and contactssync.apk app to fix this. The application would NOT show up in the app drawer nor as a widget however I was able to get it on my desktop by using the option under Shortcut "Activities" to select the option under contacts. You can also add the phone option to your desktop this way if you prefer to view "contacts" via the dialer It is also under the contacts activity.
3) Not all Google Apps were installed. I downloaded and installed the latest gapps pack. Not all are fully supported such as I have been unable to get facelock to work
4) Virgin Mobile broadband only SIM was not supported. I modified a new file called options and updated the mcli-gsm file along with updating the apns-confi.xml file for this purpose. Now I have full Virgin Broadband service using the E160E USB modem. It is fully supported with signal strength and data mode displayed.
5) Charging is pretty slow and I have been playing with the app called Fast Charge. It seems to help, and can be found on google play.
From an app standpoint I have found apex launcher along with A.I. type keyboard (only because of the typing shortcuts feature) I have found the usb Ethernet adapters are supported which is nice. I did not delete, but only disabled all of the Chinese apps.
I posted a zip file at the following link. http://d-h.st/drf 24Mb
Remember when replacing files, always make a backup and ensure the file permissions are correct. If the file permissions are wrong it will NOT work. Just look at the old file to determine what the properties should be
The install readme text is listed below:
Using ES File explorer from play.google.com enable root explorer access, mout file system as writable, enable to root all enabelded. All Root settings are listed under ES explorer settings.
Before overwritting anyfile make a backup copy simply by changing the filename extension to .bak
copy apns-conf.xml to /system/etc/ set permissions to rw- r-- r--
copy LatinIME.apk to /system/app/ set permissions to rw- r-- r--
copy LatinImeDictionaryPack.apk to /system/app/ set permissions to rw- r-- r--
copy options to /system/etc/ppp/ set permissions to r-x r-x r-x
copy mcli-gsm to /system/etc/ppp/peers/ set permissions to r-x r-x r-x
For Gapps files
NOTE: to enable contacts on the launcher you must add a shortcut using the "activities" option as the contacts app will not otherwise be shown as a shortcut or in the app drawer.
copy ANY Gapp File desired to /system/app/ set permissions to rw- r-- r--
If this helped you feel free to PM me via this forum on how you can buy me a beer
Can i do this "NOTE: to enable contacts on the launcher you must add a shortcut using the "activities" option as the contacts app will not otherwise be shown as a shortcut or in the app drawer."?

[Q] Cannot Change Permission.

I Want To Add New Boot Animation. I Download One With Zip File I Want To Paste It In System/media Folder. With Root Explorer I Am Not Able To Delete Old File Or Paste New File Or Change Permission. Please Help.
There should be a setting to mount R/W in Root Explorer if I remember correctly...then you should be able to change permissions.
I Checked Everything. Nothing Happens.
Solved : I Download An App Called Mount /System From Playstore And It Worked. Thanks A Lot

Screen Record Oreo

Hello
Does anybody know if it is possible to record the Screen with internal Sound with the native Samsung screen recorder.
I've tried to install the app, but it only say that the installation failed. Also I've tried to clone the App to give it an other signature, but then the App crashed. I have root, if this matters.
If someone wants to try it, here is the app:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...record-screen-3-1-00-16-android-apk-download/
Thank you in advance
I've got it to work on s9 port
so it's not possible anymore to use the internal screen recorder on stock s7 oreo rom?
I've found a solution. Just copy the .apk to the /system/app folder and create a shortcut with the activity runner

How did you copy the apk ? I tried with an explorer folder app with root permissions but it didn't work.
With the ES File Explorer. Just copy the app, set the right permissons ( rw- r-- r-- ), and restart the phone

Yeah, I didn't find where you can set permissions with ES File Explorer but I've done it with Solid Explorer and worked.
Thanks
