Which rom are u using. To access system partition on NAND, or if the rom requires ext partition, then obviously the apps will be on sd card if it requires ext.So you need root access. Try it with root explorer app.

[Q] saved apps

Where do you find apps you have download? I want to move some to my system apps but can't find download ones. I'm on glazed ROM 2.1 and can't find the folder using root browser. Any help would be great.
If you've downloaded them from a third party site then they'll appears in "Download" folder.
If you've downloaded them from the Play Store then they'll be in /Android/data

There from play store and there not under data in android folder. I never have had a problem finding them until I went to glazed ROM

Found it was in the data/ app folder

/Android/data is for app's "data", i.e. settings and whatever else the app saves.
Yeah, all installed apps (no matter from where they originally came) are in /data/app.
System apps are in (big surprise :cyclops: ) /system/app
Just saying.

[Q] How to install Music Player on N7?

Hey all, new to the tablet/ scene. Silly question: "how do i go about installing the Music Player app (the one that is native to the GS3 and NOTE 2) with the "Blue Circle" on my nexus7?
I managed to share the apk file from my Note 2 using APK share and copied over to the Storage of the N7. When i try to install using Astro -- it says it cannot. "Install Failed"
Must i be rooted for this? If so, any feedbacks/ info would be great. Thanks!:good:
I don't have the device, but I know some development, I think you need framework of Samsung to get it to work, but I think it needs some porting to work.

Yeah, that's a Samsung player which means it's not available on a non-Samsung device.

custom rom or remove bloatware?

Hi,
I will be receiving a galaxy S4 soon.
I need to know what would be the best option.
I am going to root & then either:
remove all bloatware using a no bloat or root uninstall app.
or
install a custom rom Doc Barebone possibly??
I would like to get as much space back as possible as I have heard that you only get around 9gb on a 16gb model.
Ideally I would like to keep (or reinstall with full functionality) the stock camera app.
I am not fussed about all of the touchwiz wizardry.
I also need to be able to install apps 2 sd card
& have live wallpapers & a music & video player
How much space is usable after a doc barebones rom install?
Apologies for all questions, coming back to android after a few years on iphone.
None of roms than I see opens more Space, you can move some apps to sd card.

I read that the Google play rom gives 12gb usable space as there is no bloatware & was considering it also. I thought the doc barebones may give slightly more.
Do all of the custom roms have app2sd functionality?
Can you install live wallpapers on the doc barebones rom?

Thanks for this , it looks like I will install doc barebones as it keeps the stock camera & if I can store apps on sd as well that will be great.
One more question, if installing a rom with no bloatware doesn't give more space, would it not be easier to just root & remove bloat ware from stock.
I'm a bit disappointed I thought I could have got some of the storage back. I read on another thread that Samsung have partitioned it so that 8-9gb is free regardless.
Read elsewhere that the google version of s4 has 12gb free.
Is there no way to completely wipe the phone & installation rom that gives you the same 12gb as the google edition..?
The apps to sd "feature" does not save you any appreciable space. You are far better off using a third party app to move the data to external sd and symlink back to the internal memory.

Reasons why people use Modified Stock ROMS is simply because the developers do a lot of editing as well as build.prop tweaks to insure Performance and Overall Stability.
Regardless of what TW Rom you use, you will have about 8.+ ----9Gb free space...
Don't Say Thanks. Hit IT LOL..
Hi.,
I have the i9505 version. I have rooted using Odin & now have su rights
I noticed that the docsbarebones rom is for the other galaxy.
Are there any roms that keep the stock camera & have apps 2 sd
Apologies noob
*** edit I have tried a few roms , but what I did was unrooted & loaded the german version of stock rom that has apps2sd then used auto root so I can remove bloat.
When I send an app 2 sd it sometimes says your device cannot move 2 sd card.
It still lets me do it though.
*** further edit. It isnt actually working.
Get error "/The_Device_does_not_have_a_real_primary_external_storage_or_the_primary_external_storage_is_emulated__Moving_app_to_SD_Function_my_not_be_supported"
What can I do to get apps2sd?
Does anyone know how to get app2sd on galaxy s4? It says its installing to sd card but its just writing it to internal.
I checked by installing a massive game, said it was all on sd, but when I uninstalled it gave me the space back internally.

It worked exactly as designed. Only the apk is moved to the ext SD. It does not move any associated data.

Hi, none of the files ever get copied to the external sd card though. They end up in some sort of sd/emulated/0 folder.
They arent on the external sd card. Everything seems to get stored internally.

That's the way it is supposed to be. The apps to SD feature is such a waste of time, I wonder why anyone even bothers. Only a single small installation file is moved to your external. Everything else is left internally. That is by design. If you want actual app to SD functionality, you're going to have to use a third party app such as Folder Mount to get it.

I think link2sd can do it. I have had no luck though. I cant get it to recognise the second partition.
2 of my main reasons for getting this phone was ability to store apps on external sd & a good camera . They are both frustrating me now as I cant get any method to work for my sd storage & seemingly galaxy s4 has hardware limitation on camera functions my iPhone 4s could do.

LGHome Gallery

Does anybody have the stock LGhome apk and or the correct files for the stock gallery? I seemed to have deleted them on my stock backup ROM and can't find the correct files anywhere.
Sent from my LG-LS980 using XDA Free mobile app
@carnivalrejectq It's late and people are already sleeping but the fastest way you can probably get it is from a custom stock rom. Or you have to wait for someone to provide it.
I'm on Boost Mobile. I can't seem to find the correct files. I've plucked the gallery files and used root explorer to place them in system apps before but it didn't work. EDIT : Case solved. Close thread if needed. I found both and got them able to work.
