Hi,
What file explorer are you using, and have you fixed permissions?
Have you mounted it to "Write" ?

I use solid explorer and I already do the fixed permission on my recovery. Is there something else that I can do the fixed permission other than recovery?

Hi,
Go to the market and get "FX File Explorer" +Root add-on.
Navigate to the system/app folder in root mode.
Unlock the padlock at the top.
Then , try to push the app.

ES File Explorer works fine for this. Your device needs to be rooted to get R/W access otherwise it won't work. If you are rooted then in ES hit the app menu and tap Root Explorer. It should prompt for superuser access and then set all to RW. Should let you move apk to system/app folder now.

Stock Browser or Smart Scroll Compatible

Hello all.
I've finally been able to resolve the instability issues iv'e had with custom kernels and roms on the galaxy s4. My current issue is that i've installed [ROM] [TeaM VeNuM] The Blu Kuban S4 (Currently BETA) with the [KERNEL][SPRINT][TOUCHWIZ][5/22/2013] KT-SGS4 - MDL - KTweaker. My only issue is that i can't seem to find the stock internet browser. I tried installing the BrowserProviderProxy.apk(37kb) but it doesn't seem to be the proper file. Anyone know where I could get the file or what browser is compatible with the smart scroll?
The file is SBrowser_SPR.apk.

You don't install it. You need to use a file manager like root Explorer or es Explorer and copy the apk to the system/app folder. Set permissions and reboot.

ya man I was going nuts trying to figure out why it wasn't working. Finally I extracted that from one of the roms around and voila! Works like a charm. I don't have an account where I could upload it, otherwise I would. Same rules apply, paste it in system/app along with sbrowser_spr.apk and permissions rw_r__r__

I tried this but it did not work. I used esExplorer and copied the apks in the /system/app dir and changed the properties of the files to rw- - r- - r- -
But regardless of the apk i attempt to install, they all fail except the BrowserProviderProxy.apk.

[Q] cm camera

Is there any way to get the cyanogenmod camera without installing the rom? Like I have pa3 and I love this rom and don't wanna switch over to cm just for the camera, so is there like an apk file or zip file to install and use the cm camera on pa3?
Thanks!
Just extract the camera apk from the cm rom and flash it..

You can't flash a apk file. You install it from the phone not in recovery mode.

There's no zipping and flashing. You push the apk to system/app/, set permissions and reboot.

Giving up won't get you anywhere.
Using a root file explorer, go to system/app/, mount as r/w, and copy that gallery apk to the directory. Set permissions to be the same as the other apk's in the directory. Reboot.

Depends on the file explorer. Usually, long press the apk after copying it, select permissions or similar. They'll need to be set as rw-r--r--.
Searching the cm thread just yielded great results for me by the way.

I think so, I long pressed and tapped on permissions, I got a 3x3 grid and then looked at other apps in the folder, the grids looked the same. I even went into cwm and did the fix permissions thing there also. And ya I tried that, didn't work

Hello Guys, I heard about LG to update the camera apk to 4.3.1 and fix about every problem the camera had.
Some of you received this update?
And if so, where can we find an apk of it?
Thanks a lot!

You push apk's into system/app and libs into system/lib but you have to find a way to clear dalvik cache and cache so that when you reboot android system will read all apps and create. dex files for them to work and without custom recovery I don't know if any other app would do without any problems.

Ok it did work, but I lost the S5 style Setting menu I was using other mod to have that. Is there anyway to have S5 style flat icon grid and list view option with this effect add on ? And no sound associated to this unlock effect ?
Also is it normal that after unlocking for a second it show my my Homescreen empty wallpaper ?
