Root explorer is pretty straight forward but can be confusing for some people who have never used it before. I have made this list based on the most commonly questions I have read about how to use Rood Explorer. I hope this answers your questions but if it doesn't, post the question and I'm sure I or someone will help you out.
When it won't let you manipulate a file ("this file system is read only") just touch the white button on the top that says "mount r/w"
When you long press files and folders for the sub menu, you can
Extract all
Delete
Rename
Copy
Move
Change Permissions
Properties
Add Bookmark
Send
View as text
Open in text editor
Zip a file
Create Tar
Change owner
You can also press menu for
New folder
Preferences
Bookmarks
Search
Muli-select
more gives you
Home
Refresh
New file
About
Exit
This program pretty much explains itself so just give it a little time and mess with it for a bit.
That's funny.
When all else fails, RTFM....

I had to get it out there. I see people asking about it all the time.
The only times I've ever been confused was when trying to edit something but I was too far into a folder to have the R/W option at the top

The R/W button, Menu button, and long presses are your friend.
So say I wanted to use root explorer in order to do the webtop mod.....how should I come about doing that? Sorry im a newb....ive tried countless times to get this working but failed everytime...i also understand that they have a forum dedicated to the webtop mod but they never really gave detailed instructions.....HELP PLEASE!!!!!!
What I was wondering is how can I install a system app? I know I can move them into system, but how can I install them? Do I have to flash a zip or put them in the rom zip and flash that?

You will need the .apk file for the app you want to install. Put it on your sd card. Then Just copy the .apk file in the system/app folder. you will need to hit the R/W button up top in order to copy/ paste it there. After that it will show up in your app drawer.
This guide should help people out.

And btw, Root-Explorer is so easy to use.. you just should use it, instead of asking how!

This reply is actually incomplete.
Those are the first steps necessary, but the most important step is, once the file has been successfully copied, to long-press on the file (or press "Menu" while the file is highlighted), and choose "Permissions". A series of checkboxes will appear. The Permissions will need to be set to match the other files in /system/app, which will be rw-r--r--. That is, all of the first column boxes should be checked, and the top checkbox in the second column. Any other checkboxes should be unchecked. Once that's done, press "OK", and it will confirm the permissions have changed. The Permissions on the file you copied over should now match the other files in the folder. THEN, after you reboot, the app should appear in your app drawer .

Hi
.. Since i think the progress of connecting phone, put apk file on sd card, disconnecting phone, browsing phones sd card for the apk file for then to install it is annoying ..
So I've made a quick batch file to quickly drag and drop files to install
Lets get started.
1- Download the attached zip. Should look something like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2- Extract using your favourite extraction program or using windows explorer.
You should now have a folder like this one:
3- Thats actually it !
What you can do now is:
Put the apk file inside the folder "Android app installer" and run the "Drag and drop files here" file (remember the ".apk" suffix)
OR
the easier way is to right click on the "Drag and drop files here" file and choose Send to, then click Desktop (As shortcut). From there. you can, any time, just drag any apk file from any directory to the "Drag and drop files here" file. and it will install it directly.
BEFORE YOU GET STARTED YOU HAVE TO DO THIS:
1- Enable USB-Debugging on your phone
2- Connect your phone to your computer
Log:
-V 1.1 (Filename: "Android app installer v1.1.zip"):
Closes after you have installed file. doesnt ask for filename after installation.
-V 1.0 (Filename: "Android app installer.zip"):
Released
I have several batch files associated with .apk files (windows).
As an example, Installing an apk is as simple as right-clicking on the apk and choosing "install"

Thanx! Was looking for something like this (newbie at Android). Excellent!
Thanks for this, What I do is put it in my dropbox, and install it from the dropbox app.
Instead of all that you can just use a app call Awesome Drop drop your apk onto the phone using a browser no wi-fi or usb connection needed just ur usual 3g connection and thats it boom you got you apk just on the app on the phone click on the apk nd install in seconds =]
Yo, thank you very much for this guide, you just made my month!! I was looking a way to do that for a long long time. The internet is full of lausy bad guides. I owe you one

Ok I've has quite a few people asking me how to make the Sense 3 navbar semi-transparent so here is a guide on how to do it...
btw, sorry for terrible paint skills
Firstly download the latest m10 tools from here, thanks to Diamondback and Flemmard
Then extract them to somewhere on your computer and open m10editor
Once that is done open up Rosie.apk in the editor by selecting load file and navigate to where its saved on your computer
Once its decompiled Rosie navigate to m10 Files and select Rosie_Workspace.m10 and decompile it.

}
Expand the lines like this,
look for btn.navbtn_side_anim-Centre, btn.navbtn_side_anim-Left and btn.navbtn_side_anim-Right
change these opacity values from 1 to 0.75
look for 2 navbar.png
and change them from 1 to 0.5
Navigate back to the Start and click save
Push it to your phone to see if it worked
Done!
Image editing
Ok, so I'm going to be editing the lockscreen ring as an example, you will need to edit the files in idlescreen_base.apk and fusion.apk in order to fully change it
Im only going to show the idlescreen_base.apk part because its really repetative
As always you are going to need the latest version of m10 tools
and don't resize images, you will break them!
Open up the m10 editor
Press load file and navigate to where idlescreen_base.apk (or whatever other .apk your editing) is
Once it's un-zipped navigate over to m10 files
Make sure 'decode images' is ticked
Then double click 'Lock_ring_motion.m10' and decomplie it
Now expand the bars until you get to 'Textures', this is where the images are
Click on each texture until you find the one you want (note images are upside down)
Right click on the image and press 'Show in Explorer'
Then right click on it in the explorer and press 'open with' and use the program of choice (I use photoshop) and edit it how you like
Then save it using the same name in the same place
Then navigate back to 'Start' and press 'Save file'
Push it and reboot to see if it worked
Done!

Works perfect thanks!!
As for app drawer though I dont seem to be able to get it to work, also rosie is acting weird, my original rosie is over 12mb and using m10 tool it stays that size, if i decompile and recompile with apktool it goes down to less than 2mb
Gonna try and work out this rosie app drawer.... lol

you have to link to zipalign.exe and adb.exe
if you dont have these just make 2 text files and rename them to the above and link to them but then make sure you dont try and push directly to your phone and also untick the zipalign box when saving
Ok. With root explorer i navigate to /system/app/rosie.apk, then I copied it to sd card. I past rosie.apk to computer, but when M10 editor trying to unzip the apk, it says: unzipping failed

I want to try this but got drunk last night and phone is completely dead! >.<

I got it installed, placed in the system/app folder. Changed the build.prop files. I still get a DC after asking it to call someone.
Any ideas or thoughts on getting it to stop fc-ing? Also I find this weird, I had 45% power before hand. Now I'm at 17%. Check out the drop in my screenshoot.

To get the S-Voice to work..
1A. You need ICS, if your on GB, ttyl
1B. You NEED rooted device
1C. Do NOT directly install like a regular APK
2A. Open the apk file on your PC with WinZip / 7Zip
2B. Extract "libsvoxtts.so" from \lib\armeabi\
2C. Transfer both these files to your ICS device or you can push via adb
3A. Copy the voicetalk.apk (i tested with this name) to /system/app
3B. If there no space, remove some apks not required pref by Titanium Backup
3C. Copy the voicetalk.apk with say ES Explorer or via ADB PUSH
3D. Change permission of voicetalk.apk to rw,r,r
3E. Press and hold >> Properties >> Change (ES Explorer)
3F. Copy the libsvoxtts.so to /system/lib (do check this is required or not)
4A. Edit build.prop (with build.prop Editor or manually)
4B. Edit property ro.product.device with value GT-I9300
4C. Edit property ro.product.model with value GT-I9300
5A. Restart Phone
5B. Start S Voice from launcher
5C. I saw during setup trying to change Hi Galaxy to your own command crashed the app.
Hey guys, first of all I'd like to say im proud of being part of this great development team. Here I come with my first post on the XDA page, I hope it helps, feel welcome to comment and provide feedback.
Instructions\Requirements
-Must be rooted and running on the ParanoidAndroid ROM for the EPIC 4G
-Download the attachment below, extract and save the file to your phone's SD-Card.

-Navigate thru System/etc/apns.xml.
-Mount as R/W (top right corner option)
-Long press on "apns.xml" and rename as apns.xml.bak.
-Using root explorer go back to your SD-Card and long press on the apns.xml file and tap copy.
-Now go back to your system/etc folder and paste there.
-Next using voice dialer on your phone open apn's by talking into your phone, just say "Open Apn's" and tap the option
-Once you're there tap the soft menu key on your phone and tap "Restore to Default"
-Finally reboot your phone and you're done!!
So a bunch of aps showed up. Do i need to remove any?

I figured I'd toss this out there as a way for us to pull together (hopefully) as a community.
Since ParanoidAndroid is based off of CM10, should the settings in apns-conf.xml (which I extracted and attached - just remove the ".zip" at the end of the file name) be the same on CM10?
I had applied the APN tweaks to CM10 (proxy/port settings) previously, and with this post had compared the info - and it's different. Just wondering if all these changes should be made to the APN settings.
I would imagine that all Sprint devices should have the exact same APN settings, but I could be wrong.

All you had to do was press the menu button and tap on the option "restore to default" exit that, and reboot your phone that was it, give it another try n let me know what happens

At first that's what I thought but after trying and trying I came to the conclusion that it wasn't going to work so thats why the differences on my xml from the default sprint settings, im not certain if this settings will work for any other ROMs but it works great on the 4.1.1 Paranoid.
Follow the steps carefully and give it another try

Did you do everything carefully?

I didn't use this (the OP's) tweak because I'm on CM10, not ParanoidAndroid.
All I was asking, is this tweak applicable (settings-wise) to CM10? The tweak for CM9/10 for APN's is not as involved as this; this fix changes a lot more of the settings on the APN page.
So I was playing with Photosphere on my Nexus S, and a thought came in.
Samsung, or any other OEM's that make Android Camera, should work hard to bring 4.2 update to their Android Cameras.
Photosphere would be a standout/luring feature to promote their Android Cameras which are somewhat a new kind of product.
While Photosphere is still in beta and doesn't stitch very well, I think people still would like to try it out since it is something new and exciting.
Samsung, Nikon, you heard?
Hurry up before someone does it first.

Hi Robb
I followed your instructions and was able to download the App + Lib onto my PC and extracted the WinRar files.
I've copied them to my Galaxy Camera's Ext SD card and can copy them to the system directories.
But I'm not sure how to change permissions on the files.
Can you please explain how to do this? I'm a noob to Android.
Thanks.
I use photo sphere too on my galaxy camera and work fine.
So for your problem, you need to change right of the file like say on the link provide.
For doing that, you need a file explorer with admin right.
I use ES file explorer.
Once you install this file explorer, you need first to allow him to access to root, for that go to : Settings
Then on the boot you will found : Root settings
Enable everything there.
Then after enable the first one, you get a pop up inform you to agree to give right on Super SU. Do Yes and after agree to give right.
When done, go to your folder app and lib where you copy the file, found the file one by one and made a long push on the file for show a menu and choice option on bottom "Properties" that open a new windows.
There click on "change" button and enable everything in "Read" column and on user for "write" column then click "ok" and again "ok".
Do that for all files (5 if I remember well) and reboot the Camera.
You will got 2 new icon for camera and galery
Hope I'm clear ^^

Thanks David.
I've downloaded ES File Explorer and am having difficulty copying the files to the system/app directory.
First I connect the SGC to my PC and after the files are extracted with WinRar I copied them to the Download folder on the Camera.
Then using ES File Explorer I navigate to the Download folder and tried to copy/paste the files to the System/app directory but it gave the message that copy "GoogleGallery.apk" failed? The Gmscore.apk was copied OK.
What am I doing wrong?
I'll recheck the Root settings but I think I did that right as I can access the Root directory in ES File Manager now.
BTW, could it be because my SGC is not Rooted?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yes I think you need root your device for get right to change file in system/app folder or even right of file.
So first root your device, very easy for the moment due of Eqynox issue, uberNoobZA and cybriks on the forum confirm he can root with the tools from Chainfire.
You can read the full topic about root Galaxy Camera here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995245
Or go to page 5 firectly if you want use the method from Chainfire where uberNoobZA and cybriks confirm it work
The link about how to use the Chainfire tools :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2050297
This method should be the easy way compare to the one use Odin, so you should be able to use it, it's only an app you run and do eveything alone
So do it and then try again to copy file and change right and you probably can use Photo Sphere (I like this function ^__^)
