[Q] Problem with changing /system permissions

I tried changing Rosie.apk and move it back to /system/app
Im using Root explorer
after I changed Permissions to "system" (rw-r--r--) and to app (the same permissions) I copied the file and want to go back and change to the dufault.
but I get FC and the phone stuck, and the only solution is to return to Recovery, and restore.
maybe there's another option to change back the permissions?

you dont need to use this step in CF kernel

And don't forget to set permissions to rw-r-r for bootanimation.zip file in /system/media.

SystemUI.apk not Install

Hello,
I have my Arc 2.3.4 successfully Root
and i have a problem. I wanted to install the following file
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342033
@ Download Nr 5. (SystemUI STOCK 42 COLOURED CUSTOM BAR.apk)
And if I file with the "Root Explorer" want to install, Come one message:
"Application is not installed" and when i change the permissions say he me: >>"permissions change was not Successful. Please Note that some file system (e.g SD card) do not allow permission changes"<<
and when i move file to SD/System/App say: " you cannot paste here because the file is read only"
1. i dont speak englisch
2. this is all complicated
please you can help me?
p.s what is RW-- r- r- ???
i cant found RW or r,r on permissions -.-
aaaand on description say: backup your original apk. lol But how does that?
iam overwhelmed XD

firstly the apk is not for install manually.
you need to move it to system/app using root explorer.
ffirstly copy the file to system
mount r/w
and change the permission to 644 or rw-r--r--
now move systemui.apk to system/app
and restart phone,
it should take effect.

so I tried installing a systemUI.apk, and lost my notification bar and lock screen.
I tried moving the original apk back but it wouldnt work.
on ESFile explorer, mount r/w has ro and rw options. which ones do I need to have checked?

Check both r/w.
And SystemUI.apk cannot be installed. Shouldn't be either.

[DEV][TUT] How to re-odex deodexed roms for use with link2sd

Requirements:
ADB
windows cmd
Ok here's how to re-odex a rom
Sense 2.1 GB 2.3.3 and 2.3.5 - use reodex_win_2.1.rar
Sense 3.5 GB 2.3.5 - use reodex_win_3.5.rar
Example here I'm using Thing ROM, but you can use this guide in any rom 2.3.5 or 2.3.3 and 3.5 deodexed
1.Extract ThingROM.zip delete all contents of /data/app/ only files not folder
2.Delete following files in /system/app/ folder
Gmail.apk
Herring.apk
Maps.apk
Slate.apk
Superuser.apk
Vending.apk
Youtube.apk
3.Re zip All extracted files name it anything you want copy to sdcard
4.Go to recovery wipe all then install the rom you have made
5.Once finished go to advanced> reboot recovery [note dont reboot system after flashing only reboot recovery]
6.Once recovery has started Go to mounts and mount system/ mount data/
7.Connect usb to phone then run odex script from the file I gave you, but you must extract it first ofcourse.
8.Once finished. open a new cmd window and type this: note you must have adb installed or open
a cmd in your adb folder. Make 2 folders in c: named app and framework
commands:
adb pull /system/app/ C:\app
then when finished next command
adb pull /system/framework/ c:\framework
now when finished copy c: app and framework folder to desktop
extract original rom cut 2 folders app and framework then move somewhere
then copy the app and framework folders from c: to the extracted rom.
9.copy back deleted files in 1. and 2. instructions.
10.re zip all files and name the rom to odexThingrom.zip or anything.
11.Now you can flash it. Then you will have 115MB free space odex rom
NOTE: Sometimes system partition becomes full and refuses to boot ROM cause no space to extract some files, if this happen try moving some apps in system/app to data/app like maps.apk/gmail.apk/facebook.apk/ etc.

Worked for me, thanks!

Can i use this on a single apk ?

Deleted

mm its seems to be easy. Thanks!

Make sure that Your devices is rooted and busy box installed. install xposed installer and then download module 'Fonter". there is lot of fonts available in this app. You can change either app font or System font. Also you can install font direct by tapping font file. Thanks
