I need the firewall and data monitor from MIUi.
Installing the apk or moving to system didnt worked.
File Manager got easily installed though.
Any way to install Antispam.apk (Firewall app) and Monitor.apk ?
Why don't you install any alternate app from play store.
Did you set correct permissions when moved to /system/app
??

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.

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
is 120kb

1,Are you trying to install system apk ?? If so u need to replace that from system / app
Or check the permission
2, use solid explorer that's better then all available

i wonder why is that it was working perfect and it was very easy to install apk files and was very fast...now i have to press install and press next next next and hen done....long procdures
So I'm rooted with the De La Vega method and it works great. As we all know, the new google maps v7 will not allow you to do a lot of things that the old versions would allow. I've found some older APKs from v6 and previous, but when I go to install, it will not allow it. Any ideas why, or how to get around it?
I'm interested in this as well. Plus the navigation voice is so robot like and it can hardly pronounce street names properly.

You can change the speech from Samsung to Google speech engine, sounds MUCH better. The method is somewhere in these forums.

I'd imagine maps is a system app, so using a file explorer go to system> apps and replace the maps apk with your older one, change permissions and reboot.

How do I change permissions? I've tried using ES File Explorer but I can't replace that system file.

Sorry I'm not familiar with es file explorer. I use root explorer and just long press the file and select change permissions. Maybe try changing the extension of the original apk to something like .bak before you copy the new apk then you could always go back if you wanted the newest version again.

Once I downloaded the correct app to allow permission changes, I was able to rename the v7 file, copy over the v6 file and rebooted with no problems. However, the application didn't show up in the app list. So, I had to then install that same APK and everything works great. I now have all of my stored maps back!
What can't u do on v7?

Where did you locate previous versions of Maps? I am tired of current version of Maps forcing me to allow WIFI and Network Locations to work. Just a battery hog doing that.

There are several places online that have archives. I also had my APKs all backed up in such an event.
If you get blackout updater (Google play) or in Android themes. The blacked out version of Google maps is the last V6 version. I was glad to have the map view back.

Sorry, working all of a sudden, must be t-mobile issue...
Nevermind!
Its not tmobile. Download an app called total commander, (file manager) navigate to; file system root, etc, then scroll down and find a file named "hosts" and delete it, then reboot. Happens to me all the time, and thats always fixed it for me.
