[Help] Reinstall SMemo after script cleaning - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone
I just upgraded to Android 4.3 with Djembey's MEGA rom, and I used a script to remove all bloatware on my device.
However, SMemo was also considered as a bloatware and I'd like to get it back :crying:
The cleaning script had everything backed up my internal memory, so I have the SMemo2.apk on my device, but I can't install it :crying:
When I try to install it, it seems to install but after 20-30 sec, it says "Application not installed" and no more informations
Any idea on how to reinstall it
Thanks in advance guys :victory:
Edit :
I found out thanks to ajaydsantos, I needed to copy the apk to system/app/ and set the permissions of the apk to rw-r-r

[Q] nook color 1.2 w/manualnooter flash prblm

I have a Nook Color with software version 1.2 and have installed manualnooter 4.6.16 which is working very well. I am trying to get Flash 10.3 without the boot loop problem. I have read that Flash 10.1 needs to be uninstalled and then a new install of 10.3. My problem is that I cannot uninstall/delete flash 10.1.
Here is what I have tried:
I used used root explorer and went to /system/app and flashplayer.apk to either rename it or delete. When I try to rename or delete, it tells me that flashplayer.apk cannot be renamed or deleted because the file system is read-only.
I used Astra file explorer and went to /system/app and flashplayer and opened app manager then selected uninstall and it comes back "uninstall not successful". When I use this same program to edit and delete the file, I get an error stating "error deleting files". Renaming tells me that I have insufficient permissions (I am assuming that is since it it read-only, but assuming gets me in trouble at times)
I used NookColor Tools and tried to clear data and uninstall and it does nothing with no response that anything was even attempted.
Does anyone have any advice on what I should do to get 10.1 deleted or renamed so I can load 10.3?
Thanks in advance for any help you could provide.

I used Titanium backup root to uninstall 10.1 painlessly, then installed the newer version from the market.

[Q] Accidentally removed DownloadProvider.apk

Hi All,
I have a rooted european TPT and I did something really dumb today: I nuked DownloadProvider.apk, thus killing any download functionality.
I downloaded the OTA update roms and had a look in there but they only have patches for the APK and not the file itself. I have been unable to find a full ROM image to use either, one linked from here was on Megaupload so that's gone.
May I beg someone to send me this APK please or point me to where I can find an image of the original ROM? Many thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hi
I have the same problem. Deleted the downloadprovider and I guess also the downloadprovider.UI.
I'm on 2.3.4 root. Build nr: 4.0.2.A.0.42.
What to do with the other file in the zip apart from the .apk and how to set the permissions when moving the .apk to the system/app folder?
thanks

The other file is the odex just copy it in /system/app like the apk. The files need the permission 644. You can set them i.e. with Terminal Emualtor or with adb:
Code:
su
busybox mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 644 /system/app/DownloadProvider.*
Unfortunately I did the same mistake like baz8080 .
Can you please help me with DownloadProvider for A310_02_0039_0089_WE?
I still have the apk and restored it to /system/app but the odex is missing and I'm still not able to download anything
Thanks in advance
Anybody?
I found DownloadProvider.apk + odex from 0076_WE
Is there any way to apply the patches from the update (0086_WE and 0089_WE) manually just on these two files?
Edit:
Solved it!

Things To Do
You must have root access to your phone
1. copy and paste "Download Provider ui" folder to /system/apps of your root folder.
2. copy and paste "Download Provider" folder to /system/priv-app of your root folder.
3. give permission like other apps in the folder and install both apk inside each folder with your root explorer with root installer package i used "fx file explorer pro".
4. Done restart your mobile.
5. you need to have google play store updated and google play services updated to latest version

Change.?
What do u want to change...
Do u just want to replace it...
Or edit it.....
** 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?
_____________________________________

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.

Help - Unistalling Gapps Camera

Hi, I'm currently using C-Rom v7.1, and I accidentally flashed the gapps "google stock package" which replaced the roms camera with google camera. The point is that I already tried a lot of things to get rid of it and get the roms camera back, but I was unsuccessful.
I would like to know if anyone could help me.
Thanks!
Try get someone to upload the apk for the ROMs camera and what permissions you need to set. As for removing the Google Camera, you can use Titanium Backup, or use Root Explorer and check under data/app and system/app, if you find it, mount your phone as read/write and delete it, then move ROMs camera to system/app and reboot, that's the way I'd go about it.
I followed your suggestion, but instead of just deleting the app, I used Root Explorer to search in \system and \data for everything that could be related to "camera" and "gallery" and then deleted them, after that I reflashed the ROM and wiped out \cache and \dalvik cache and it worked! Now I've the camera ROMs back!
Thanks for the help!

[Q] my phone turns off and on after root

Hey, today I decided to root my phone , everything went well, but it has begun to turn itself on and off automatically.
I rooted my phone fllowing this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgsaf8xeMI4
and i found a thread with same problem here (i will link it) i tried to delete those files with using the same app, but when i try to delete them they pop up again..:S
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2799563
could someone help me please?
model: i9505
android: 4.4.2
kernel:3,40-3162654
You need to delete knox related files.
i m trying to do that
yeah, as i said, i cant delete them. when i delete them, they pop up again, and i use root explorer as recommended in the thread i have linked in my post
There is no thread found at that link. 404 Page Not Found.
Also, the stock rom has an apk that installs deleted system apps at every boot. So that's why they might popup again.
Delete that apk and it won't install deleted apps at every boot.
