Move it to /system/app using root explorer - Before that push r/w button - Set permission to rw-r--r

I know this is an old thread but.... Is it possible to fix this without root? See I have the same problem.

Why you don't use root explorer?
Just use Root Explorer to find the email.apk and delete it.
Check root permissions in SuperUser app. I had the same problem and I found out the app had no root permissions in the SuperUser app. Apps like that have a red circle on the right.
Thanks wery much.

From What i've Done,
Copy/Paste Apk to System/Media
Change Permission,
Move Apk to system/App
Be sure the Apk Name Should be Have No Space.
e.g Nova Launcher.apk Rename to NovaLauncher.apk
Permission :-
[x][x][0]
[x][0][0]
[x][0][0]
Reboot.
Hope Its Working

Its same, push is done using adb... u cn paste it n set permissions appropriately...
But remember, there sbould be no spaces in the name of file pasted in system/app... 'my file.apk' is wrong, 'myfile.apk' or 'my_file.apk' is right...

Yes you Can use Root explorer.
Make sure Root Explorer Mount as R/W not R/O.
If i remember correctly NOVA Launcher is ANDROID 4.0.1+
ALSO try installing them instead of putting them in /system/apps if you want it in /system/apps look for the launchers on here and insert them into the .zip (the rom file) instead makes live tad easier. also save's ****ing about with the permissions
im correct about NOVA, so yea your pissing against the wind with that one

[HELP] .APK won't install

I have been given the Samsung keyboard and I'm trying to install it and it won't!
Can anyone give any clues as to why it is not installing??
I'm using [ROM][4.0.4] RemICS v1.1 (Team Remics).
Cheers,

Any ideas folks???
I too tried but was the same.
If you want then try putting it in system/app and reboot your phone.
How that works.

Look forward to the update, any idea of eta?

Make sure you are rw in explorer, and you might need to delete the old Samsung keyboard if there is one in your ROM, and set permissions to match the other files in that folder, might need a reboot too

Is it actually working for anyone????

If the install and copying to the system/app doesn't work it probably needs other files like framework and permissions.
Hope the ROM guys can fix this up for you.

Stock JB browser from the network Roms

Here's a working Deodexed Browser.apk from the ThreeUK build.
the sim-free xZ come with Chrome as default,
some people prefer the normal android browser (I Like both, so use this and chrome beta )
it does have some features that chrome doesn't such as full-screen and quick-controls.
to install : You will need ROOT !
on an unbranded rom, you will need to remove
system/app/chrome.apk
system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.apk
Possibly remove
data/app/Chrome apk
data/data/com.android.browser.provider
otherwise you could get issues with conflicting package names.
then push this to system/app and chmod to 644
Appears you need chromebookmarksyncadaptor as well to get synced bookmarks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32558502
cheers r1c4rd0 for that
Lost with last step then I think "push this to system/app an chmod to 644 ?"
edit: got it, but still not working (rw-r-r)

copy the browser.apk in root explorer to system/app/ and set the correct permissions to the same as the other files in there rw-r--r- (or 644 as a code) :silly:

got it, but when trying to open up it forcesloses (though on background you see page loading (something from sony)
on an unbranded rom, you will need to remove
system/app/chrome.apk
system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.apk => renamed
Possibly remove
data/app/Chrome apk
data/data/com.android.browser.provider => renamed
thank you!

I guess you are flashing a 4.2.2 MMS.apk on a 4.1.1 rom so it's not going to work.
Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1637121
It's for 4.0.4 but should work on 4.1.1, if it not work then restore the original MMS.apk you can get it from one of the 4.1.1 roms on the forum.
