[Q] SGY Sim Toolkit missing (stk.apk) - Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl

I flashed evo-x 4.2, the ROM is great but I'm missing the stk.apk (SIM toolkit).
I really need it since it is used almost everytime to check airtime balance.
Can anyone upload the stk.apk for the Galaxy Y? From the stock ROM?

I'm sure you could of searched for it but here it is - just dial the code to check balance once installed

I did search for it mate, but other stk.apk from other GB phones do not work, so I'm hoping to try the stock stk.apk from SGY stock ROM.
Thanks mate!!! :highfive:

Did you use system app installer (playstore) to install as you may get application not installed if you try to install normally

I usually just push it through /system/app, then change permissions. Is the system app installer necessary mate?

As mentioned above you can push and change permissions too - I just use system app installer as its quicker and automates that proccess to save you changing the permissions yourself
It also comes in handy if the apk has lib files to save you extracting them and pushing them too (the stk doesnt have libs - you can just push the apk to system and change permissions and it will work)

porting was easier than i thought
updated first post and added an installscript for openrecovery.
Have installed, but get Force Close, so i cant Start it. Have restored the Original.

Yes, have cleared the Data. Then copy the new Mms.apk, change rights and crashed system service (no reboot required). But get Force Close.
Then Reboot, checked for app data (is cleared), but get Force Close.
Have attached Logs.

i think i found the problem... if u have a root explorer go to /system/app and delete Mms.odex also ! that should fix the FC
edit: updated the OR-zip so that mms.odex will automatically deleted on install

I truly think you are right but please tell him to set permissions as it will not be visible unless u set permission's and in my view use link2sd for these purposes as it includes an option directly to convert it to a system or user app............ :cyclops:
Speaking of permissions, after you move an apk to /system/app...set the permissions to rw-r-r. I think both shivamsejal and deathnotice forgot to say that. And link2sd is good too, but who wants to remain a noob in these things?

You did tell him to set permissions, but how will he know that the permissions should be set to rw-r-r or rwx-r-r or r-rw-rwx, etc.? There are so many different kinds of permissions. Permissions should be the right one, not just any one.

actually mms.apk can be removed and you can still recieve messages,
if you use go sms, handecent, pansi you'd be able to recieve messages with or without stock messaging,
the phone.apk is the one reponsible for the cellular radio decoding and recieving,
if you remove that you'll have no signal
Replacing apps to system.
I have the repencis 3.5 advanced with PCB blue theme, awesome rom BTW! As you know it comes with system replaced. I want to replace stock browser with chrome browser as system app, unless you have better faster browser . Open to suggestions. I followed directions but it didn't work. Please help, thank you! Blackpanther, thanks for the system/app/paste app info it worked great. Shevas I still haven't needed the permissions setting but thanks for the info aswell.

When converting a user app to system, what else changes besides permissions? I'm using cod rom with katsugi kernel. Some apps wont work properly even though permissions are set right like quickpic on this rom, but it worked as system app on repencis. I will appreciate a reply thanks

You need to extract lib files of apk and put it in /system/lib and set permission to rw-r--r... use root explorer tap on the apk then tap on view it will open up contents of apk file navigate to lib folder and choose folder named armeabi cause that is the lib files for our phone which is armv6 extract contents of that folder aand follow the procedure i gave abive on where to put them
touch /human/brain
chmod +x /human/brain

About to try it but thanks for the quick reply

So I got the quickpic app to work. Thanks for that info. But I tried to do the same with ics picture gallery and I followed the steps but no lib folder. This was also a system app on another rom. I looked for the lib files of this app in the system/lib but there was nothing there. Btw I was having trouble with smart keyboard pro but I found and fixed permissions in system/lib for that too. Thanks! So where else can the lib files hide if not in system/lib or apk/"view"/lib/armeabi/? Thanks again 3rdzc

** rooting is new for me,
nd i am a noob to root....**
Install apk through system app installer (download from play store) to replace system apps
If you get force closes if you try to replace them then place your new apk in a cwm flashable zip & flash it in Cwm to replace files
Copy the apks into the folder system/app (which is what flashing does) and reboot
PHONE SLOW CLICK ME?

I wouldn't recommend doing it that way - you may get force closes and you have to manually set the permissions yourself
System app installer does it all for you
For apps that cannot be replaced easily because they are in use the best way is to create a flashable zip to replace them in cwm
Marcus system app installer does what I just said also so does flashing I.e if he gets force closes my way he will still get them your way all he needs to do after is reboot I've done this many times (is probably y I forgot to say change permissions) and he asked how to do it using root explorer
Anyways OP I forgot to tell u this but u need to change permissions of the app u copy to rw-r--r just hold down on an app and select change permissions
PHONE SLOW CLICK ME?
_____________________________________
"Your signature has been granted superuser permissions"​
You can use System App Installer, or if you really want to "change" them by yourself after you replace the *.apk you have to set permissions like this rw-r--r--, OR you can just delete the apps that you don't want from the theme's zip and flash it.

Putting it into data/app installs is, fixing permissions is just so it will show in the app drawer
Make sure you have Security => Unknown Apps checked and Verify Apps unchecked
Apps install fine for me by clicking an .apk
Use Root Explorer or ES File Manager, it's probably the MY Files preventing it.

Hi guys!
I'm bumping an ancient thread here, hope that's okay with you.
I have this old S4+ lying around. I love it's Gallery app due to the built-in possibility to losslessly trim MPEG-4 AVC (H.264) videos by cutting to nearest keyframe, and also lossless rotation by changing the rotation metadata flag of the MP4 file in question. This simple feature is not implemented in "modern" Gallery apps, or well at least not in the OnePlus 5T I'm using today. So, I was thinking I could extract the .APK from my S4+ (running Android 5.x) and put it in my OP5T (running Android 8.x) without too much headache. Guess if I was wrong.
I get the error about that app was not installed. After browsing around on e.g. ApkMirror, I ultimately found a Samsung Galaxy derived Gallery .APK that I could install, it was a very early version (v1.x.something) which has the cutting feature, but not the rotation (flag changing) feature. So, this ancient Gallery3D .apk installed well, but not the one on my own Galaxy S4+.
So, what could be my issue? Is the .APK flagged to be installed as a system app, and due to my OP5T not being rooted I don't have access too /system/app/, therefor the error? Could it be that simple? If so, is it possible the modify the .APK to install as in /data/app/ instead? Of course I'd resign the APK with some dummy/androiddebug signature afterwards to make installation possible.
Could it be some silly (not really needed) demand listed in the AndroidManifest.xml of the APK in question? If so, is it possible to replace the AndroidManifest.xml with a very "basic" one listing more or less no demands, and re-wrap everything with new signature?
I'm really investigating all my options __except__ for having to root my OnePlus!
I figured that I could get a more specific error message from ADB than by just trying to install the .APK through the phone interface.
So, here goes..
Code:
C:\>adb.exe install F:\Galleri_com.sec.android.gallery3d.apk
adb: failed to install F:\Galleri_com.sec.android.gallery3d.apk: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK: Package couldn't be installed in /data/app/com.sec.android.gallery3d-RAEW5FZ4VBWqTWXx48LPmQ==: Package /data/app/com.sec.android.gallery3d-RAEW5FZ4VBWqTWXx48LPmQ==/base.apk code is missing]

The Galaxy S4 and most Samsung devices has a second framework app, twframework-res.apk, that only works with their apps. Here's the fun part: the existing Android framework-res.apk is modified by Samsung so both framework apps are required by a given Samsung app to function. Even better is that you cannot simply port the app and twframework-res.apk to a totally different device and expect it to function. You'd have to port the framework-res.apk as well, and with that apk being a system file, you'd soft brick your device after copying it and rebooting.
The tl;dr here? What you're attempting won't work due to Samsung modifications to Android.
