Hi,
Im running rocket rom v6. I want to paste the accuweather transparent app into the system apps folder but it wont allow me to. My phone is rooted, mobile odin runs fine but I cant seem to paste into any system folder.
I realize its a permission issue, but how do I get round it? Are there any guides I could read?
Thanks in advance
Bob

I use ES File explore from the Play Store. Just go to setting then you can enable "Up to root", "Root Explorer", and "Mount File System". Then you can copy and paste to the system/app foler.

anyone know how to make YouTube play in high quality by default ? only one rom does this on its own and that's aloysus . I know when on wifi it will but I'm mostly on 3g. maybe there's on option on YouTube itself to do this ?

The version attached below will play in HQ by default.
Install through adb:
Code:
adb remount
adb push YouTube.apk /system/app
adb reboot
Install through Astro, or similar:
Code:
Place the file on your sdcard
Open Astro
Find YouTube.apk on your sdcard -> Click & Hold it -> Edit -> Move
Go to /system/app directory
Menu -> Edit -> Paste
Reboot your device
Enjoy!

Sweet. Thanks a lot.
getting the hang of using adb, worked like a charm.
thank you!
Glad to help
not sure what I did wrong but I couldn't get this to work. I didn't do ab method cause I rarely have access to a computer. did astro way and it wouldn't allow me to paste on system / app. I used Linda and that allowed me to copy / paste. I rebooted and tried YouTube but got same ole normal quality. I took a a look back at system / app and saw that YouTube apk was indeed there and it was. LOL this seems so simple and really isn't a huge deal but would be really nice for me to get this to work

Go with the ADB method, it'll work. Make sure you push, not install, install will fail with a message to the effect of same version already installed.

installed it last night, it actually makes the YouTube app worth using. where did you get the apk from?
Sent from my Eris using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
If using astro or any other file manager you have to turn on the root settings. Also setup the SU and then mount the system via the app. I use ES File Explorer. Works great, in sure.

I did it with root explorer but when I rebooted the App was missing all together. Not listed in app drawer. I will give adb a shot but my adb drivers are all jacked.
Thanks for the apk.

Anyone ? I don't see any sort of setting in Astro. Tried "Linda" file manager too and saw nothing.
Hello
I recently picked up a HD Fire which is on the newest update 7.2.1 and rooted it with the "Qemu automated root" method, which it said was successful. I see the SU app, thing is "ES file explorer" wont let me turn on root explorer and another app "root explorer" wont let me change system permissions to R/W to move apps around.. I am stuck, and I am assuming that I am not rooted if I cant change permissions?
Thanks..

.... I cant change anything with Read only and I am not able to enable r/w, including moving files to root directory with the app.
Edit: Weird.. I redid the root process for the 5th time and it finally worked.

Glad you got it working....In My experience (which isnt great) Id Just sack ES Explorer and use Root Explorer....Its quite simple in there. There is a button at the top that is for read only or read write.....It says Mount R/W to get read write or when your in RW it says Mount R/O for read Only. Im a massive fan of Root Explorer ....And no I dont have anything to do with it......Its the best Stat! for less than £4 I also have their SQL database editor....Which actually lets you edit stuff...Unlike some Ive had to get refunds for!

Hello,
when I try to switch Root Explorer I got message:
Sorry, test failed!. This feature cannot run on your device.
What I have to do?
I have Kindle Fire HD 7", Serial Number D025 AOAO**** ****
Current version : 7.5.1
So I just opened up the file manager on PACrom and I'd like to increase privileges, but I don't know where to find it. Does anyone know?

Do you want to access the system files? If you do, try root explorer from the play store.

Just like Samsung phones, the sounds are both in the ui folder and inside the apk. You need to replace apk to stop remaining sounds. So in short, yes it gets rid of the sound

copy and paste with droid manager. also if i deleted the camera apk if wont let me copy another one in the system/app i guess i will reset and try again unless there's a way to restore the original without resetting the watch.

Sounds like you have a permissions problem? Do you have root? Perhaps try replacing on device with root browser (or similar)

What did u used root explorer or browser or cm file manager? Did u set the permission?
Normally u cant install system apps and u have to set permission and then restart ur device
As far for the permission, press the stk.apk and a options menu will appear. Then click on permission button then refer to this image:
i use cm file manager and activated the root access mode
noob question... how to post the screen shot of my phone? i wanna post the checked permission and the result

nvm... i wont use the stk app... sorry for the inconvenience
