Here is the ported music app from the MIUI Rom. The installation is very simple.
1. Download the zip file and extract the apk file from it.
2. Copy the apk file to /system/app folder and you are done.

Does anyone know if you get the controls in the notification menu like the current one in Froyo?
no controls in the notification menu...
Since this doesn't have any controls in the notification bar, does it have a widget or are there any controls for the lock screen?

Can anyone help me out with Step 2:
2. Copy the apk file to /system/app folder and you are done.
Do I need a certain program or app to do this?

Use any file manager like astro or root explorer. You can also use adb to push it to /system/app folder.
Goto market and download a file manager.

I installed multiple file explorers and everytime I try to move the file into the the system/app folder, I keep getting an error saying I do not have enough permission. Any help?
Works really good. Thanks for posting.

Use adb to do the job.
Code:
adb push /path/to/downloaded/apk/MiuiMusic.apk /system/app
Or buy "Root Explorer" from the market

Lets start with the basics to see where you stand...
1. Are you rooted?
2. Goto market and download "Astro File Manager".
answer the first question if its yes then goto step 2. Let me know when done with step 2.

Ok connect your phone with usb to your computer turn on mass storage copy the apk file not the zip file to the root of your sd card.
Disconnect the phone from the computer open astro copy or move the apk file from the root of your sd card to /system/app folder and you are done.

Right, I've already tried this from the beginning and each file manager I use, including astro does not allow me to move the music player file into the system/app folder.

Follow this guide up to Step 3.
After you have ADB working, then type the following
Code:
adb push /path/to/downloaded/apk/MiuiMusic.apk /system/app
Remember to use the correct path to the apk

I did some searching but didn't find anything.
Is there a way to bulk install applications if you have all the apks for those applications?

Emm haven't tried it but it should work.
You could use wildcards.
So let's say you have a bunch of .apk's all in one folder, you could use adb to install them on your phone using this syntax:
Code:
adb install folder/*.apk
This should install all files ending with .apk in the folder
sweet, I'll give that a try and let you know how it works. Would make testing different roms alot easier.
Do you think this would bypass the market? If it did notification of updates would not work. hmm, ill have to test.

use atrackdog
Create a batch script with:
Code:
for %%f in ("C:\path\to\apks\*.apk") do adb install "%%f"
The easiest way (imo) if you are rooted:
1. Put all the apks into a folder structure \data\app
2. Create a text file with the following and rename it update-script (with no extension) then put it into a folder structure \META-INF\com\google\android
Code:
show_progress 0.5 0
copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA:
show_progress 0.5 10
3. Zip both folder structures into a zip file (you should have folders data and META-INF at the root of the zip).
4. Sign it with signapk and you're done
Whenever you want to bulk reinstall, just put the signed zip file into your sdcard and reboot into recovery. When you want to add or remove apks from the bulk installer, just drag it into your zip file and resign.
Or you can backup all your apps into one folder on your sdcard and run this in terminal:
Code:
su
cd sdcard/apps
busybox install *.apk /data/app
I might add this feature into my ADB File Explorer app
I've added a basic feature to install apps into my ADB file explorer, it can do one off apk's or bulk install from a directory. See my sig for more details.
wow, that was fast! thanks!

Thank you for this. This will come in handy a LOT next ROM flashes :]
Seems so easy looking back on it, not sure why I didn't think of it earlier. I may even just edit the rom files to include my installed apps if I need to wipe.
someone made an app for the computer if you have the .apks you just plug in your phone double click the apk and run it and itll install on to your phone, try looking for that.

I'm not sure whether it's using the 5 MB free or the 42 MB space, but Any Cut is 32 kb, so that's a non-issue.
Any ideas on why it's not working?

Do you have your sdcard partitoned to fat32 as the first one and then ext2(3) as your next partition?

I don't think so. If there is an ext2 or ext3 partition, I didn't set it up.
By the way, I got InstallAPK, which lets you double click on APKs on your PC and install them to phone immediately.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=521295
It worked just fine at installing all my apps after the wipe.
Minus the fact that I had to double click on an app, wait for it to install, double click the next, wait for it to install, double click.... ad nauseum.........
I'm still interested in finding out why the method I posted in the screenshots isn't working.
Has anyone actually gotten it to work?
We're getting off topic but this is what you need to do in all likelihood you're gonna have to reflash Cy 3.6.1 again but before you do you're gonna need to setup your sdcard like this:
you can use either Paragon Partition Manager (above) Gparted, or SDSplit but you should set it up like the picture to run apps to sd and to fully get the Cy experience

but can't find any explorer to fine this source file and install it
how can i do?
3 options:
1) Use the market to load a file manager that has the install feature. These will let you browse your sdcard and install apk files from there. Astro is a very popular file manager.
2) Install via adb and your pc.
3) Install via a terminal app using Linux commands.

Android is really great, but there a few points of Android ownership that are a bit of a pain... one of which is installing APKs on your device. Enter installAPK!
What it does
installAPK is currently for Windows only. After installation on your machine, you can double click APK files to install them on your USB attached android device. Simple as that!

Hi glazeus,
I downloaded the usbdriver.zip file. I unzipped this file and extracted the wdfCoInstaller01......file into my Magic SD card. When I clicked on this file. it says "Windows cannot open this file", eh? What am I to do?
if none of the above works
just download eoe app installer from the market. whack the apk files onto your sd card (doesn't matter where) and when you run eoe it'll bring them up in a list.
long click > install

HOW TO INSTALL (3 methodes) ?
File browser method (Rooted devices only):
Connect your phone to your computer via USB and mount the storage card for file transfer.
Copy the bootanimation.zip file that you want to install, to your SD card.
Unmount USB storage and launch the file browser of your choice on your phone.
Browse to /system/media, copy the existing bootanimation.zip file from there and paste it somewhere safe on your SD card.
Browse to the location on the SD card where you copied the new bootanimation.zip and copy it.
Browse to/system/media and paste the bootanimation.zip file there to override the default system boot animation without replacing it.
OR
Browse to /system/media and paste the bootanimation.zip file there.
If you are using Super Manager, you will have to enable its root function first from the settings. Furthermore, you may need to mount the /system partition as read-write first too upon entering it.
ADB method:
Enable USB debugging on your device in Settings > Applications > Development.
Connect your device to the computer via USB.
Launch a command prompt/terminal window on your computer.
Navigate to the location where you have the bootanimation.zip file saved.
Enter these commands need root) :
Code:
adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/
Boot Animation Factory (the easiest way) :
download and read how to from this post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678540
Whichever method you used, you should now have the new boot animation successfully installed on your device. Simply restart it and you should see it running upon boot.

You need to STOP with all the Jelly Time bootanimations!
I downloaded and installed the first because it was so cool.
Then you come out with a second one, had to choose, stayed with first.
Then Randomblame uses your second one in B9.1.
Now there are just to many good ones to choose from.
Really though, great work. Keep it up.

All are very good looking.
I do not know if it would be possible but, if you could create a way to have the system randomly pick one each time it booted, now that would be Awesome.
And then I would not have to choose...
I don't know if it's possible neither... you should ask a dev (I'm not)... I thing it's a little too much work...

Once again, not affiliated with this app, just found it to be working flawlessly on our poor little HTC Vivids. This is the proclaimed Android 4.3 Camera that's on the Google Play Edition phones. Originally found here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2340858
How I got it to work-
1. Move Gallery2.apk out of system/app/ (I backed it up in another folder just in case)
2. Install the Googleeditioncamera.apk from your preferred mirror here
3. Take pictures!

Side notes- Some advanced options are not included in this stock app- Shutter sound cannot be disabled, and you cannot change the camera to save to external storage, the options just arent there.. So if this is important to you, think twice about installing the apk. I've been using the camera on Vibrate mode and it's been silent for me, FYI.

How did you move Gallery2.apk out of the app folder? I tried using a file management app and it just gets stuck at 50%. I've also tried straight up deleting it and that doesn't work either. I am unable to access the root phone file through USB.
Thank you.

Hello Everyone!!!
The problem i am facing is that the backups that I make with CWM they are not accessible to me in the directory structure. In recovery mode when i go to restore then there they are at /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup but when i try to access this back up through ES file explorer then there is no file inside backup folder.
Then i went one step backwards in es file explorer and there is a Storage folder and SD Card folder. As i said before inside sdcard there is nothing in clockworkmod, while when i open Storage folder there are 3 folders emulated, SDCard0 and USB.
But cannot find the backup in them as well... Can any one tell me whats going on over here? Every time i take a back up it eats up to 1.7 gb and i am not able to remove them from the phone storage.

But cannot find the backup in them as well... Can any one tell me whats going on over here? Every time i take a back up it eats up to 1.7 gb and i am not able to remove them from the phone storage.

I am afraid there is nothing in there as well...
Device/Data = nothing
Device/SDCard/Data = Nothing
Device/Storage/Emulated/0/Data = Nothing
Device/Storage/Emulated/Legacy/Data = Nothing
Device/Storage/SDCard0/Data = Nothing ....

What file explorer are you using? I recommend ES File Explorer File Manager and be sure to give it root access.
Press the icon in the top left
Click 'Tools'
Click 'Root Explorer'
give access to root when it pops up.
You should now be able to see inside your /data/ folder

Thank you very much for your help... Got to those damn files atlast... But it is strange since other apps that require root access they ask for it at their start ups but not ES File explorer.... Anyways thanks once more for your time and help... cheers....

Glad you found them :good: Apps that require root to work *at all* will request access on startup. ES doesn't ask for it because it doesn't need it to run - apps only request root access when they're trying to access root i.e. pressing Root Explorer means ES needs access to root.

Yeah that makes sense now before i was just being mad at the sorcery of android file system....
My backups were actually in MNT/Shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backups I have no idea why they were there, i had a heck of a time finding them
