[Q] Apk from system/app ?

Can somebody tell me if i want to use applications in system/app folder of one phone in another , how can i do this?
For example i tried to copy the memo.apk (application) from samsung galaxy s2 to xperia play's system/app folder using root explorer. After rebooting i still could not find the memo applicaiton in my mobile. I also simply tried installing the memo .apk extracted from galaxy s2 in my xperia play but it could install.
Thanks.

Change permissions?

Hi. I know that this is old thread but i dont want to make new if i can write here.
I try to install system apk from galaxy to my XPlay. I copied and gave rw.r.r than reboot and i still havent this app installed.
When i try to install like every app im getting "application not installed".
What i do wrong?

This should be the right file

[THEME]Cosmic Flow theme for Xperia Mini Pro (sk17i)

I have posted this custom theme for Xperia Mini Pro (SK17i) for rooted GB...
The theme is taken and modified from stock ICS.
I haven't tasted for other Xperia devices, so it might work...
Before you start, back up your original DefaultThemes.apk file in /system/app in your phone to your SD card
Just download the .APK file
Use root browser:
copy the .apk file with name DefaultThemes.apk and paste in your SD card, and than move it to /system/app
set permissions to wr--r--r
reboot device
enjoy

[Q] Root does not change anything

Hi
I have rooted my p6 via eroot method. It seems to be rooted. I can install cwm touch, I can flash something, superuser works, but I can't rename the files in system, can't copy any files to system folder.
I used Es file explorer and root browser with granting root permissions. Both didn't work.
Any idea, solution? Thanks.

Hi,
Use another file Explorer like root Explorer...
Es file Explorer are my Favorit Explorer but i have the same problem at my p6.
If i aktivate the root Option it will not be fix this.
With an other root Explorer it works perfectly.

Because you also have to make the folders R/W (Read/Write)

With es file Explorer it doesent work. With every other root Explorer it works without any changes in file system settings.

Yes that worked with me. Thank you very much.

what file manager?

Wondering what file manager app most of you all are using on this phone. I'm having trouble finding a good one with 8.1.
I had high hopes for the new Google files Go app, although it really doesn't seem like it can do much yet.

Solid explorer is still my explorer of choice after about 3 years and 4 phones.

Root Explorer.

Root Explorer for me. Tried other ones but I always come back to RE
Edit: been using MiExplorer for aweek or so now and I'm really liking it.

Mixplorer for me ?

Root Explorer

Fx file explorer for me
It just works and you can "tweak it" to your preference.

root explorer
nothing else comes even close imo

X-plore File Manager, always excellent since Symbian!
It supports root and it gets better and better with time

Been using Root Explorer since like 2010. Have no reason to look for a replacement. It's perfect.
