Try another file manager to install apk`s or try clearing data of the Solid Explorer app in settings/apps.

Is there anyway you (or anyone) can pull the updated .apk file and post it? For whatever reason, I can't upgrade it, either. When I open the app, it tells me off the bat that there is an updated version available. However, why I tap "OK" to update it, nothing would happen. I tried to reboot the phone, and I got this error when I tried the update:
Download failed. -1java.io.FileNotFoundException: /fs:/shared/csitest.tar (No such file or directory)
If someone can post the .apk file so I can do it manually, I would totally give you a cyber high-five.

Doesn't appear to be the new version. Installs fine, but when launched it says an upgrade is available.... Clicking on Update crashes the app, then gives error-"Download failed.-1java.io.filenotfoundexception: /fs:/shared/csitest.tar (No such file or directory).
Also tried to drop in system/app folder with rootexplorer, but got same error...
Hmm that's weird pulled it directly from my phone. O well I guess ignore the upload
Sent from my Evo.
here is version 2.2.46.124167.
When pulling from the phone the NAND is supposed to be locked so it cannot install as a system app any longer and is located in Data/app

Drop it into the system/app directory and edit the permissions of the apk to match the permissions of the other apk's in that directory. Then reboot.

That is the first thing I did. It first asked confirmation for replacing a system app. When I gave 'Ok' it says 'Application not installed'. Because of this only I tried copying the files to system/app folder.
You must be looking for this....

This is not the one. I'm talking about the Nexus One's default wallpaper, which will be available in LG P500's stock froyo ROM also. I think it will be available in the first set of apks you provided. But I'm facing the issue of installing.
Anyway thanks for your help mate. I'll try to install those apks somehow.
Try Nexus Revamped Pro on Market.
And what about Microbes live wallpaper from Nexus? It has been ported to SGS, so is it possible to have this in OO?

"It won't install"?
You have to push the SecLauncher3.apk to /system/priv-app, e.g.with root explorer.
People that don't know what they are doing should not mess with there's phones, then open countless threads on here asking for others to put right their mistakes.

If you install S5 launcher by apk you can uninstall simply by settings.If you replace file in System folder put the original touchwiz in it.

Delete the Gallery from your /system that you pasted into it, mount system in recovery and flash the zip again. Works perfectly here.
What's your recovery version, on a side note.

The Motorola Gallery is named the same thing as the stock gallery that comes with the phone, unless you're on Lollipop of course.
