[Q] Flashable Stock Browser file?

Hello everyone!!
So i got myself a WiFi Xoom and rooted it. By mistake uninstalled the stock browser with titanium backup and now its gone from the system. Can any of you please provide me with a flashable file so i can flash it via recovery and restore app?
I tried getting the apk from one of the system dumps on the developer section but when i try to install it i get the message "App not Installed".

did you move the apk to system/app and give it correct permissions rw/r/r?

I tried to copy the apk to the system/app folder using ES file exlorer but it does not let me, and i dont know how to set the correct permissions.

Use RootExplorer, it does all mentioned stuff

Put the apk into this file. Put it in the system/app folder and flash in recovery.

Thanks!!!!! this worked very well. Thanks to all that replied.

I've Lost My Browser
EDITED:::Nvmd, replaced browser.apk with the ones from system dump, as mentioned in OP, and that resolved my issue of not being able to use the stock browser.

Is this a market app or is it an apk that you have? Do you have root explorer?

Don't think it'll work on our device. And if it did work for the fascinate you would prolly need to be on a touch wiz rom as well.
good day.

What Chopper said could be true. At any rate try this:
Long press on your file
Hit extract
Go to the extracted folder
Long press on your extracted file
Hit move or copy
Navigate to system /app folder
Hit the system rw if necessary
Paste the file
Re boot
tsm res1.2, TKSGB 11-14, lag fix

I have a different app but same problem. I have ES File Explorer I can copy the file but when I get to system/app I have not been able to figure out how to paste the file. Anyplace I do the long press in system/app there is an app that it thinks I'm wanting to do something with and I don't get the paste option. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Okay so I figured out how to paste it and it wasn't allowed. No I can't find the apk at all. I have even cleared cache and tried to re-download and I get the Ballero-2.apk actually I am up to Ballero-5.apk and can find none of those either.
un-rooted, microSD card, Go Launcher, ES File Explorer, HomeCatcher
Thanks again for your help.

Es file explorer is not as consistent when it comes to giving you root access, which is what you need to paste in system, app. Imo, root explorer is a must.
Edit; although I read that you can obtain that permission somewhere in the es file explorer settings

[Q] Stock Music App?

So I uninstalled the stock music app and I was wondering how to install it back on to the device?
I got the com.htc.music.apk from system/app/ but I have no idea on how to install it back onto the device?
Ive tried plain old install then adb and both had no success... Can anyone help me and my noobness at this?

Download root explorer, I am assuming you have root. Next locate what folder the file is in. Make sure you have read write privileges by clicking the button art the top of the program. Long press the apk file, select copy or cut, etc. Then find the system folder, go in to it, find apps, go in to it, and place your file here. That should work.

HTCMusic.apk [Stock HTC Vivid]
Here you go bud,
Simply use "File Manager" or another file system app from the market to install the apk files to /system/app. Then reboot.
Be sure to have root and set permissions to match all other items in /system/apps. Also be sure to erase what ever current HTCMusic.apk you currently have in the folder.
Good luck!

No problem, glad it worked for you!

I think I screwed up..

I have canned a lot of apk's recently.
Now I notice when my wifi scans it won't show any networks/SSID's. But if I manually enter one, it will connect.
Any ideas? It may not be related to the apk's I don't know

An apk file is an installation file - it installs an app. Once the app is installed you can delete the apk. So I doubt one has anything to do with the other.

Isn't the apk and the program one in the same? If you remove an apk from browsing with root explorer it will remove the program off your phone.

When you delete a system apk it deletes it from recovery as well.

Download UrDroid from the development section. Open the zip and goto /system/app and copy them to your SDcard into a folder (so you don't clutter the root of your storage)
Reboot into safe strap
Click on mount
Select /system
Back out
Goto advanced
Select file manager
navigate to the folder on your SDCard
Copy them into your /system/app folder
When your done fix permissions and reboot
If your nice, pm me and I will make you a flashable zip

Is there a way to accomplish this without safestrap? That's the only step of your process I don't have

Not for it to be right. But safe strap is uninstallable.
if you're already rooted then you can run safestrap

If that were the case, I'd have very few apps on my phone. I always delete the apk file (as soon as I back it up to my normal backup locations, which are on devices other than the phone).
An apk is actually a zip file with a different extension. (Rename it .zip and open it in Winzip - you'll see.) It's an installer. Once the app has been installed you no longer need the installer.
If you've deleted apk files and had your apps disappear, you're doing something in addition to removing the apk files. (I normally put apk files on the root of my external SD card, so I don't need a rooted program to delete them.)

I've added/deleted/modified files in /system/app with just root file explorer, back before safestrap existed for the N3 - you do not need safestrap to fiddle with /system/app - you can do it with root file explorer (remember to set the permissions correctly - 644 iirc).

[Q] MTP Application 1.0 APK

Hey guys! So I successfully managed to root my Galaxy S Advance running stock 4.1.2 Jellybean (Italian firmware I9070XXLQL) and installed SuperSU and TitaniumBackup. I was uninstalling unnecessary bloatware using a couple of lists made by other forum members. One of the apps I deleted was called MTP Application 1.0 (I think?) because it is only required for connecting to a computer via Kies and I don't use that anymore (Android File Transfer all the way!) But now my phone does not get recognised by AFT at all. Unfortunately I'm a klutz and forgot to make a backup of the application before deleting so now it cannot be recovered. Can someone possibly provide me with the APK? It is a system application and I have granted root access to ES File Explorer. Just need the application itself. Thanks!
Edit: I've already searched online and can't find the APK anywhere on the Internet.

Here you go. I attached the file. I use xxlql deodexed and pulled this from the preload partition. I think you must put this apk in the app folder on preload partition and give it permissions. Good Luck.

Hey thanks! I downloaded the APK, moved it to the appropriate folder and changed the permissions. Now my phone is getting recognised by AFT. Thanks once again for the speedy response!

Hi. Can you give instructions on how to install the APK? Like which folder to put it in and how to give permission?
Thanks so much!

You must be rooted. Once you are done rooting your device you must install root explorer or es file explorer. Then grant root permissions to that app. Now move the apk file to preload/app folder in root of the device. Then choose properties of the apk file and set permissions. You can youtube the procedure. Good luck.
