[Q] How to install Music.apk to Walter's Defy+ - Defy General

Hey guys I don't know how to make Music.apk run after installing it on Walter's Defy+ ROM...
I searched the forum and did what ppl say: put Music.apk to system/app and change permissions to rw-r--r-- reboot the phone.
After that, depending of Music.apk, I have immediate FC (with CM7 Music.apk)or I can enter the app and get FC after selecting music track to play (with MS2Ginger 1.1 Music.apk)
I really don't like BlurMusic.apk so I would like to change it somehow
Please help...
ps. After removing every Music app from phone I managed to install Leaked Google Music app 4.0.1: Link
But that way it's not system app but User's...And I don't like this Music app that much (widget is so ugly and stupid)

try PlayerPro
It's my favorite music player app and you can install light blue skin that nicely goes with 2.3.4 blur firmware.

I think the permissions should be rwxr--r--. Worked for me.

copy music.apk in system/app via root explorer(before copying press 'mount r/w' icon at the top, it will than change to r/o). long press the file you just copied. from the menu choose permissions and from there enable read/wright/execute in user category. then reboot

Nope, it's not gonna happen
So, Im using ES file explorer, but with root rights and mounted File system...I did change permissions to rwx r-- r--, and rebooted, and FC
Tried with cm7 Music.apk, with miui Music.apk, with MS2Ginger 1.1 Music.apk...
I don know what else should I try...Maybe reflash the whole thing and start from the beggining?
Oh yeah, I uninsttaled blur Music.apk...Maybe that is why nothing is workin...But that is a silly thought
............
Or just install PlayerPro

Apps in /system/app dont show up nor do widgets

so i removed friendstream.apk because of forcecloses and htcfacebook for sense i got the apks from a stock rom and used root explorer to mount and paste the files into the /system/app folder so theyre there, but i dont see the apps or widgets but when i try to install them using the app manager on android it says its already installed, any ideas? thanks!
im using damage control 3.2.3 with a custom kernel for damage control 3.7.1, thanks!
Leave them on your sd card and then try installing them using your file explorer.

when pusing them to /system/app with root explorer you have to change the permissions of each app you copy over (hold select the app and choose change permissions) i just check off all of the permissions thingys
when pushing through adb it does that automatically
hope that helps
the default ones are all can read and user can write plus read
Thread moved to Q&A.
yea i checked all the permissions and used adb before and still not showing up, lol really frustrating
any ideas guys, really miss friendstream lol
An easy way to fix permissions is through ROM manager.
Download it in the market and select fix apk permissions.
That might do the trick..
Don't forget to reboot.
yea tried that doesnt work, really weird
Very strange, did you try an adb install? Rather than push..

[Q] Google News and Weather Widget with MIUI?

Has anyone gotten the Google News and Weather Widget working with MIUI? I always get a force close. I'm on the 1.2.11 version of MIUI.
Thank you.
Im on 1.2.25 and it works fine. I just had to use root explorer to copy it to the system/apps and then adjust the permissions to the same as the other files in that folder. Once I did that I rebooted and I was able to use it.

Hi,
i just tried with the geniewidget.apk file, and set to chmod 644 like the other apps under /system/app, but I still get a force close. Maybe a bug in 1.2.11? I'm not willing to switch version for this one widget though...
I did try to reboot.
Would you mind posting your apk file so I can try?

I also had a problem, when I tried to install the Atrix music player. The solution was to copy it to system/app folder (with root explorer or a similar app), change permissions and reboot phone. (Thanks to spear1403 for that advice.)

[Q] i dont know what is this, help me

i installed ICS ROM v1 to my Samsung Galaxy Y
it works, but there's a problem
this thing always come out (attached),
and i cant find the Gallery,
any suggestion ?
which ics romv1?please post the exactly name

i downloaded it here
http://www.4shared.com/zip/Qh7B2YYx/NextToICSRomV1signed.html
ahh,next to ics rom.
Problem 1:
Some users find that the Swype is force closing, and the absence of gallery and music in App drawer.
If you face this problem, here is what you can do:
1. Using root explorer, delete Swype.apk from System/app (or) uninstall swype using link2sd.
2. Try looking for play music and gallery ics apk in system /app. If present MOVE them to SD card using root explorer. Tap rw at the top to move.
3. Reboot.
4. Install the following attached apk's in the post: SwypeICS.apk, and GalleryICS.apk, Google play music. apk or from the apks which you just moved to your SD card. For better performance of play music, again move the apk to System /app...and set permissions to rwrr. (Tick the first two boxes in the first row and the 1st box in the other two rows) and reboot.
5.Enjoy.
Problem 2:
ICS Gallery is not working on my phone.
Solution:Have you done it properly? Try again. I've fixed the link. Still if it doesn't work, I'm afraid you will have to install the old Gingerbread Gallery. Copy and paste gallery3D.apk from attachments into System/app using root explorer, set permissions to rwrr and reboot.
Problem 3:
Status Bar does not appear.
Solution: Re Install the ROM from beginning. It happened because the flashing was not done properly.

Need 2.3.4 camera app

Accidentally erased my camera app. All others suck. Can anyone supply a download of the original updated app? Currently running true ancestor 1.6 with doomkernel v14. Seems like a lot of work to go back just for the camera app.

Go market find camera mod for Xperia play. Stock camera app with L button to focus and R button to capture.
Sent from my awesome Xperia Play with DoomKernel
No need for modded, get 2.3.4 system dump and put apk to your phone.
Thank me then.
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
That is not the same. It doesn't support 720p video or continuous focus. All it does is change buttons. Don't get me wrong I wish the stock camera app was set up that way but I'm going quality over convenience. Thanks any ways.
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
here this is the camera app..this one is modded by me with black theme..you can use R shoulder button to take pictures and also features 720p mod. place camera.apk to system/app and set permission for it..
Works great, I got the best of both worlds here. Thanks to all you guys for saving my a ton of time , and for the quick response.

File explorer must be capable of mounting system as writable. I use ES File Explorer. Go to ES file explorer, settings, root settings, tick root explorer and mount file system. Then back to explorer, copy / cut the things you wanna move, press favourites on the bar, then / , now you will be in system. Go to system, app, paste in there. Then long press the apk you've pasted, press properties, then change permission to rw-r--r-- done

This guy right here is awesome, I got one small concern here, after I over wrote my camera.apk my phone automatically rebooted itself, should I go back and change permissions to rw-r--r-- or is it functional the way it is?
You will have to change permission its necessary for almost all system/ apps

no you wont be able to install,unisntall the camera mod then you have to push camera.apk to system/app
First get root explorer and then move Camera.apk and go to system/app folder there at the top right hand side there is a R/w and R/o option ,select read/write(R/W) then paste it , it will ask you to repalce the caamera just select yes and replace,then fianally hold camera apk and set the permissions to rw--r--r--
