Installing app to data/app doesn't work nexus 4

Firstly I am referring to this guide:
Barclays-bank-app-running-on-rooted-phones
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360053
After following instructions on my nexus 4 I have this problem:
I installed the Barclay's app 2 days ago and today I uninstalled it and copied your modified apk to data/app but after copying and restarting my phone the play store auto updated the app.
Now I have barclays-1 and barclays-2 apk in data/app . I've tried deleting my cache and dalvik cache and installing then reuninstalling the official app
I then tried installing the modified apk and restarting but the app won't appear in all apps, please help :/
Also when I try a to install it, my nexus 4 doesn't allow me to press install after reading permissions warnings. (I have google verify apps off and unknown sources on).
Thanks.

Cannot Convert User App to System App

Hello
Why I can't move user app from data/app to system/priv-data? I've tried different apps to convert the app to system app ,tried tby, system app mover, link2sd..still can't get it done
It says "not enough storage space", I looked at the storage but it has 18 gb free..Im running on android L 5.0.1 SM-N910G rooted.
Any help is very appreciated ..thnx
I use ROMToolboxPro to do this. It ussually gets the job done.
Link playstore:

Same here, im using Stock Marshmallow 6.0.1 - Permissive SElinux
Tried Romtoolboxpro, link2sd, System app mover, etc.
Mount system RW and move the app folder manually didn't work either.

[System App Help] Apps in priv-app not showing in Android System

For clarity sake here is what im trying to do.
take camera folder that has camera.apk in it with camera.odex in the arm64 folder and move it into my system/priv-app/ that should hypothetically install it as a system app after a reboot.
Im doing this on a nexus 6p with android N preview 2 and the only file explorer that mounts the system as R/W is FX File Explorer (While in booted system; i have full control via TWRP though)
I do reboot because i know 5.x+ requires reboots between system changes.
I have done this via FX and is stays there even after reboots. Ive done this via TWRP and stays after reboot.
my issue is that after a reboot, the camera app does not show in the system. Its not is the app list in settings and i cant find any instance of the android system recognizing it.
I have this issue no matter what the app is unless i install the app as a non-system app first then manually create its folder system in system/priv-app/ and copy the apk to its newly created folder then uninstall the non-system app version and reboot. But i cannont do that with every app. Some have to be system apps from the beginning or they refuse to install (as expected)
Any help on this will be hugely appreciated!
Any ideas guys?
Same problem on my Nexus 5 with Nougat rom. I hope someone can help.

Moving app to /system not working

Hi.
I am new to this rooting and stuff. I got my pixel 4 rooted with magisk manager. (To activate motion sense). But now i am trying to convert user app to system app And it doesn't work. I have tried link2sd,system app mover even use fx file explorer to paste the app in /system/app. It just doesn't work.
Also tried with magisk module systemizer, the app get transferred to system but that app only crashes.
What to do? Am i doing something wrong?

I can't say anything about the mentioned magisk module because i don't use it.
But i think your system is ready-only as it is by many other phone nowadays and that is probably the problem. For example i can't modify system on my pixel 4 xl because it is mount as read-only (and i have installed Magisk, too)
That's the main reason why Magisk is the root tool nowadays: it works systemless so it doesn't need to touch the system partition.
I know some apps could mount the system as read-write in the past and i think adb could do this too theoretically.
But i can't give you detailed steps because i didn't need to mount my system as read-write in the past.

Boot freeze after moving an app top priv-app

Good morning
It's my first post, but xda saved my phone many times these years and now I've a new problem and can't find a solution.
I'm just trying to move an app (fakegps) in System/priv-app with:
Link2sd and superusers by magisk, error like "mount: '/system' not in /proc/mounts"
Systemize by magisk module and Termux with superuser, but it doesn't work
Moving directly the app folder in system/priv-app changing permission (like other priv-app) to folder and app with the best manager "MiXplorer Silver" but rebooting the system will freeze to boot logo.
Now i've flashed stock firmware global (twrp for mi9t european version can't see system folder) and now when it freeze I just delete the app folder from priv-app to unlock the phone, but the problem is still the same... is there a working way to move an app to priv-app in Xiaomi Mi 9T?
Your point of this post is that u want to make an installed app in your data to a system one ? move it into system/app not priv-app
Yes, in system/app the app works, but for expert mode of fakegps I need to put it in priv-app...
