Using different .apk file?

If I want to change an .apk file on my phone is using the Push adb command the same as just using Root Explorer removing the file I want to replace and just copying new one in its place? Are the results the same either way?
Thanks
It depends?
90% of the time unless I'm told to specifically copy over the existing and reboot is just copy the app to my phone and use ES File Explorer and have it install that way.
The other method (since I'm cheap and lazy... well ok and broke) is using ADB / SU to copy the app into the directory and reboot the phone.
you could do that , you could also put all the files that you need on your sd card...download super manager and move them from sd to /system/app or whatever you need to do ...
I was wanting to try a different Camera.apk. I was able to use Root Explorer rename the current camera file(so I still had) and then copied new one in it's place and it did fine.
Thanks

framework-res.apk

What is the most simple way to copy my framework-res.apk. I have found it using Root explorer but can't find a way to copy and paste to a message. I tried looking for it while connected while connected w/usb but can't find it here.
Use RootExplorer to copy it to the SD card. (internal or external if you have one)
Tap and hold the file name in root explorer, choose copy from the context menu, navigate to the sdcard using rood explorer and then choose paste. Then connect to the computer and copy if from the sdcard.

Try using super manager - make sure root function is enabled..
Browse to /system/framework
Copy the apk
Paste it in /sdcard directory
Rename it to .jpg
Attach to message
Profit
Then rename to apk

[Q] Root drive copy permissions - Serendipity 6.4

I have the Captivate with AT&T. I've installed the latest drivers and have tried connecting to 2 different computers; one running XP and the other running Windows 7.
I have only had this problem since flashing Serendipity 6.4. I'm trying to upgrade to Serendipity 7, but cannot get the update file to my root drive. I've tried multiple file managers (none will move the file from the sd card folder to the root folder). I've also tried multiple browsers, but the only one that has an option to change the download folder is Opera, and that won't go to the root.
Any ideas on how to get this to my root folder, or a fix to connect to the computer??
No need to put the file on the root " / " of the drive. Placing the file anywhere in the " /sdcard " wil work just fine.
Edit: in fact you actually need to put the file somewhere on /sdcard to flash with cwm
And if you ever need to place files on the " / " root, root explorer file manager from the market will work, but you will not want to put files directly on the root of the partition that you flash with cwm.
Please post in the ROM-specific sticky in Q&A. That's what they're there for.

[Q] Cannot delete file

I Downloaded a WinRAR file onto my S5 for my computer. It is in my downloads folder on the internal storage of my S5. I have deleted everything out of the folder itself but cannot delete the folder. It annoys me. When I try to delete it I get this dialog box:
"Error deleting folder" Cannot delete WinRAR 5.21 Final(x86-x64) Pre-Activated 100(weird Chinese symbol) an install: The storage is write protected.
Remove the write protection and try again.
I am not stupid...I've tried everything I could think of and cannot remove the write protection or anything. For some reason I think it may be because of the weird Chinese symbol that is after the "Pre-Activated 100"
I cannot rename it, modify it or anything. It is the only file I am having a problem with. Can anybody help me with my OCD?
Is your phone rooted? If yes, you can either use adb or just a terminal emulator app, and delete the cr.p of that file!
Edit: the command you're looking for:
su
cd /mnt/sdcard
rm -r Download
That will remove the Download folder along with all its content. (this is irreversible)
