After I installed / tested the new roms on Rom Manager, my gallery will not read my SD card..? I d/l'ed a gallery from the market for a temp fix but does anyone have a clue as to how to fix it?

I find that gallery reads the SD card during boot-up.
If you mounted the SD-card after boot-up, or added file to your sd after bootup they typically don't show up until after reboot.
This is after many reboots.

Delete it from system/apps and reboot. Delete cache in stock recovery. Pull the gallery apk out of any of the roms here and put it in the same place....reboot.
You should be good to go.

If you still have "My Files", you can use that to open the photos into the gallery.
push that into system/app
should work..
Awesome! Thanks guys...
I will be at my laptop tonight to try it. We live on a sail boat so these things take time...lol

Well I tried all that.I even wiped and added gallery 3d with a new rom. Still doing the same thing..
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I finally fixed it! I used es/explorer to cut and paste the contents of the camera file into them out of another folder. It seems to work fine now... Thx for all your help.

Hey I have 2.2.1 Android version and 2.3.340 Sytem version on my Droid X and I need some help. When I first rooted my X I very quickly uninstalled all the bloatware that I didn't want bc I didn't know that you could just keep it and rename it. Now I have Root Explorer and I have the capability of renaming files, but I'm missing a TON of bloatware. Do any of you guys have link directing me towards a place where I can download those missing files? Thanks!

Did you make a backup before you. Started your install spree

Unfortunately, no. I'd already uninstalled a few apps before I made my first backup. Yeah, I know....stupid, right? Lol.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Lol I'm pretty new at all this but I'm sure you could find a stock rom and flash it on your dx. Search around. I'm sure your not the only
One whose done this. If not you can get the apks for em

Okay, so I've got the file now that has all the stock droid x apps on it. I tried to copy and paste the apps from my sd card to system/apps. Unfortunately that crashed my phone and I had to flash back to my backup ROM. What did I do wrong?

you cant just copy the files over.
you need the apk and the odex files
then you need to change the permissions to rw-r-r and install it
then you need to reboot
i would SBF and start over renaming them to bak or try a custom ROM thats 10x better than stock like apex, darkslide or if you prefer ASOP then Liberty.
You'll have to excuse my ignorance, but what's sbf? Lol.

Oh, and after reading your helpful info on changing the permissions I still wasn't able to install some of the files. So, a few questions:
#1- What folder do I need the files to be in before I try to install the apps?
#2- Do the still end up in /system/app like all my other apps once I install them?
#3- Why would an app like for instance "friendfeed.apk" say "Aplication not installed" after I click on "install"? Bc that's what a lot of my apps are saying when I try to install them.
Please help! I'd rather install each of these apps 1 by 1, THEN rename them, instead of completely returning my phone to stock, customizing it (ringtones, apps, wallapapers), THEN rooting it again, installing the rest of the apps that I can't run without Superuser access, and THEN renaming all those files. Ugh, this is a pain in the butt. Please give me step by step instructions on how to do this (move "x" file and "y" file to folder "z", etc....). I'm a noob at this so I need it basic. Thanks!
Back up your contacts to your Google account and return your phone to stock. All your apps can be redownloaded from the "my apps" section of the market once you sign in w/ your Google account. Your contacts will also be resynced. It's a piece of cake. And rooting with z4root is so, so, so, easy.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Ugh....I was trying to avoid returning it to stock. I've got all my ringtones and stuff customized. Is there no way to leave my phone as is and just put the files back on there?
Also, would just doing a factory data reset put all the stock apps back on there? Or do I have to do more?

So I put on this xbox boot animation a while back, and recently I wanted to change it to a nexus s animation. I tried a flashable one and the old animation was still there. Later I tried to do the manual one by Going into system/media. Didn't work. I do not know what to do. Would be nice if you could help.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
If you're on a sense rom, it needs to be in /system/customize/resource, for aosp, /system/media. The flashable didn't work probably because it flashed to the other location.
Still will not let me delete the boot animation in system/customize/resource

You'll have to use root explorer, make sure you're mounted as r/w, or use adb to push the new file.
So I am using file expert. I made sure I checked the root permission box, and I try to delete the boot animation but it simply doesnt. It puts a status bar up for the deleting operation then closes.

Had to let the app linger around the su. It's working.

I need help restoring my camera to its original state. I applied the camera mod to increase bitrate but it FC's my camera. So I flashed the "stock" settings again and I still have the problem. Any way to just flash a completely stock camera apk? I'm on CM10.1 if that matters.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
No need to flash it. Use a root file explorer to copy the stock camera.apk to /system/apps and change permissions to rw-r--r--.

Thats not correct for his issue. The mod modifies the media profiles and not the camera apk so replacing the camera apk won't help a single thing.
You need to replace your media profile with the stock one you had before you flashed the camera enhancement files. Or flash a new ROM.

If you dirty flash the next nightly it should over write the modification and put back in the original media profile.
If it doesn't then you will have to perform a clean install and wipe first. But I am almost 100% positive the mod will be over written with a dirty flash and you will be back to normal.

Thank you very much Monk. I'll try and report back after.

Dirty flashing worked and my camera's back to normal. I don't think it's worth double the data size for what everybody is saying is a placebo mod.

I am cameraless!
I received my phone yesterday and started playing with it. While deleting a couple of the google apps (via TBP) I think I accidentally deleted that of the camera (which I can only guess would have been the Gallery apk?)
I have downloaded necessary files and all I need to do is change permissions but I don't have the option
Can someone help shed some light?

No option to change permissions
Use a better file manager, Solid Explorer for example. Make sure you enable root access
OK so, downloaded solid explorer, changed permission on both apk and odex to rw-r-r and the three .so files and nothing. App does not show up on my list
EDIT: Now both Gallery and Camera are showing BUT when I tap on them it tells me "Unfortunately Gallery has stopped."

Didn't help, I keep getting the same message... I had a couple of frozen items on TBP and defrosted to see if that would solve the issue but nop.... Something that seems so easy has taken me all day to fix :crying:
EDIT: maybe this piece of info helps someone know what is happening; when i uninstall or modify any app it gives me that same error "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped."
Followed instructions of installing the 4.2Camera zip as well as the toolkit zip via recovery with no avail.
Deleted the apps, added them. No luck
Copy pasted the lib (.so) files and changed permissions (replaced existing). No luck
Rebooted a million times. Did a data, cache and dalvic cleanup and No luck
I had installed instragram and then deleted it. I also installed Quickpic (doubt any of these have anything to do with the problem though).
EDIT 2: Problem SOLVED!!! I updated gapps with this file which seems to be the latest version and voila! Camera is back to proper working order!
recently noticed i am unable to open the device storage setting on my rooted kfhd7. initially thought it was a bug with go launcher ex as it has a few issues with menu settings in its new update but since trying other launchers including stock i am still unable to select storage settings. anyone else had this issue?
thanks

Make sure you still have /system/app/MediaProvider.apk, that it is not corrupted, and that you have not frozen or disabled "Media Storage" using Titanium Backup or a similar app.
thanks. mediaprovider.apk is still in /system/app and mediastorage looks ok in tit backup. unsure if either are corrupted but size of the apk is 22kb.
Sent from my KFTT using xda app-developers app
You can copy it and rename the apk to .zip then open it... if it opens it is probably not corrupt

was just about to copy it to my computer and can see another file in system/app called mediaprovider.odex.
would this be the cause of the problem? this other file

Rescan your SDcard. Either reboot your phone, or download rescanSD app from the play store.

2. Reboot
