Didn't worked for me, I kept getting "Connection has timed out"
I've restored 2.3.6 version through Titanium Backup but when I go to download something from the market I get (process.com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Can someone upload this .apk ?

Looks great thanks

WOW, that's just amazing. I like the new design.

Why is it working for everyone :/ except me!

If you have root try to overwrite the app by pushing it into system/app. Maybe it will work.

I have my phone rooted, and I tried what you say with astro/es/root explorer
but I just can't copy anything in /system/app/ because it's read-only.
Any ideas ?

yes, I do. Mount R/W in the root explorer (upper right corner). By default read only is set.

I clicked it but nothing happened~

hmmm, strange. Anyway. I just overwrote it by a normal install of the .apk. Nothin to push. And it works great.

WTF is going on :/
I navigate to /system with root explorer tap on mount R/W and nothing happens

You have to paste it after you pressed R/W..
Pressing the R/W button only means you can now put something in that folder..

Been using it since the morning, works great so far.. not too sure about the looks though. Too grey and too much like WP7

Man I'm not an idiot, I know that "Mount R/W" only changes the permissions and I also have to paste the file.
The thing is that when I click it nothing happens.
I'm using Root Explorer 2.9.3

Have you tried deleting the old market paste the new then restart you phone
I just click on it installed and everything was fine, dunno what has happened there,
or you could open up the zip of the rom you are using remove the vending and replace it with the new one and reflash it to your your phone, without wiping and that might work
or try ADB

All I did was install it over the original some people said its got Chinese work.g on it but mine seems fine

thanks for your reply
I went there, but it seems that in menu it wont give me a copy option, and even when i do get that option it says that i can't save it to SD card, what permissions do i need to set there, maybe this the problem? and is it permission per files of folder ?? how can i set the option to copy from root to SD ?
sorry for bunch of questions :laugh::fingers-crossed:

Just use the app Super Backup. Backup apps option will copy app apks to sd card.

I'm rather sure it was created in the same folder the aroma-app-package-creator.jnlp was in and it's a zip file, there is no exe.
Probably yes but there was not really a problem you just need all the apk files and it takes some time but the result is very good and usefull.

My mistake, i was talking about the .jnlp file.
Btw i put in this paclage creator only the apk files and did not add any app folder.
I'm gonna try it again later on today. The first few try out the program worked pretty fast but no zip to be seen LOL. Lets see what will happen later on.
Sent from my ****** LGOB

Works flawlessly for me

:victory::victory::victory: YES, FINALLY. i made it :laugh::laugh: i think i know what was the problem. i didnt give enough time to create the .ZIP file. if would have waited for 20 secs longer on each earlier attempt, i would have had those files already. LMAO, i'm such a noob dang so stupid of me. well no i know to double check myself. hehe.

It seems to me that you have problem either of your root or correct permission of bootanimation you try to install. What happened when you try to install it?

You used file explorer to check out your /system/media folder right? which one? But if you delete something there it not supposed to be there if you have correct rw permission there. I first think that it could be problem with bootanimation you try to install but if you can't delete something there for good I guess first look at your permission to write that folder.

I tried many and different bootanimations not just one and with different ways. I'm rooted and I use the root browser and the permissions are right. But the when I delete the original bootanimation or overwrite it after entering the media file it is there. (when I tried with recovery I got an error)

Basically no and yes. I moved the audio folder it moved successful but when I got back it was both at the moved and original location.
It's like the system generates the missing files by it self

I was suggesting factory reset.. Anyway have you tried another root file manager? (i use root explorer and everything works here, but you should try several apps)

Root again. Use "Easy Root Tool". If it stuck cleaning part just run it again and you should be good.

I was trying to change Xperia S bootanimation last year. Ending up to find that problem is much deeper then basic root and root explorer.
Didn't find the way how to apply custom one.
As I remember is somehow connected with bootloader or kernel
Sent from my C6903 using XDA Free mobile app

Don't know about Xperia S but with Z1 I can change bootanimation. I use X-plore by Lonely Cat Games with r/w rights and have zero problems.

I would suggest you do not have root.
Check if you have killed the ric.
Goto sys/kernel/security/Sony_ric and see if the file called enable says 0 or 1. Also check it just after a reboot.
If it's a 1 you will lose write permissions to the system partition after a reboot, which explains the symptoms you are talking about.
Changing the boot animation had nothing to do with kernel or bootloader, you just have to change the bootamimation.zip in system /media

new idea for a new tool

I got an idea for a new tool
where you can copy and past APKs for a certain folder and the tool will create a new flashable zip for you.
it could be awesome.

Same here. Select file working; but zip is not created. (Can't find).

Hi,
No problems here with ZipMe. Only thing that doesn't work (actually it never worked) is including app data. It gets lost when flashing the zip because of linking stuff.

Did you gave it storage permission?

Su granted; but uninstalled. Still using your 'PM'.
But I will try again and do trial.error and set permissions.

i *think* that the permission is the problem as the app was never updated for MM. It doesn't ask for this permission AFAIK.

Titanium backup has an option to build a flash able zip from app backups. It's under menu->special features->create update.zip. I believe that installs app data as well.

Help with rooting custom device (not phone)

Hello guyz!
I have a device that I am testing, which is heavily customized. I managed to unlock the bootloader, find the boot.img and patch it with the magisk manager on an other device, and finally flash it with fastboot. The sun binaries was written in the system but there was no magisk manager so whenever I tried to execute su in adb I got permission denied as a response.
So, I found the system.img unpacked it and tried to install the app files in several destinations(/system/priv-app, /system/app, /data/app). Than way I managed to find the app in the system and now when I give su in the adb it waits and in the system I see magisk manager opening and closing immediately.
I know that I am losing something, cause I do not have deep knowledge of the Android internals, but I did my best until now, and I didn't find how to fix the issue until now. Also , for some reason I cannot install more apps on the system (other than the preinstalled and magisk)
I appreciate the help thanks guys

Lol no man not an iPhone user! It is not a phone nor a tablet! It runs Android 9 and it has a vertical resolution !
Update: I don't know if it can be considered stock rom! The manufacturer makes it but it is something like stock with some costomization and restrictions!
