Hello,
I have troubles with GDX - when I copy app to system/app and change permissions, install it and then reboot, still I don't see app in launcher - I couldn't use it. What I can do better? For example I would like to install xperia launcher and I can't. Thank you so much.
1.If you want to install an ordinary app you don't need to push it to system/app,just you should install it simply.
2.If you want to replace an app with the app in system/app,after change the permission you must push it to system/app,and just reboot ,no need to again install it.by the way remember just some special app you can move it to system/app and replace it with default one.like as Framework or mms,etc that someone cook it specialy for rom.
3.and finally if you want to replace an ordinary app to default one that exist in system/app,you must first install the app simply,after that you must go to system/app and delete the default one,and just reboot,and enjoy,
For example:
you want to replace the holo launcher with sony home launcher,first you must install sony home launcher then run it,and from settings make it as your default launcher,then go to system/app ,and delete the holo launcher,then reboot and enjoy!
i hope you got my meaning,good luck!
Thank you for yours help, but I have still the same problem.
I'm going to describe my own procedure:
1 - I want install Sony home launcher with corners.
2 - download launcher and put it on sd card
3 - Via root explorer going to sd card and install launcher - "Application not installed"
4 - then copy sony launcher and paste him In system/app - set permissions and install - "Application not installed"
5 - reboot
6 - nothing happened
7 - what I do badly?
Otherwise - I want not replace holo launcher.
Thank you

Maybe The file is corrupted or you're trying to install stock x8 launcher that won't install easily or it's odexedzl!
Try another one, apps must install then moved to system /app

You need to delete the launcher pro files from dbdata and data folder. I hope you have one alternate launcher to navigate and root explorer or similar to do so. After that reinstall the apk after placing it on the system/app folder.

Download GO launcher from market, download Root explorer or some file manager that gives your root access. then find all the instances of Launcherpro and delete them. Install the launcherpro again. Will work. I solved it like this.

hey XDAs,
i got a arc launcher that already comes with a themed dock.
now i wanted to change the dock and i got this folders where i replaced this file with another .png of the same size.
when i try to install the launcher i get "application not installed" error.
do i need to change more than just the icon or what did i wrong?
so....nobody?
got the same error with app icons, too.
Should work if not you could try to recompile the apk with new png.
How did u install it? Flash via CWM or copy over?
1. Did u remove previous version first? Must be done first unless your flashing via cwm.
2. Also with framework dependancies etc remove any arc widgets prior to installing, install arc launcher then reinstall or copy over widgets again.

hey,
thx for your advice but i already managed it on my own
Hello,
I backed up the touchwiz apk and odex file on the stock rom thinking that i would be able to reinstall it to get the stock theme, but whenever i try to reinstall it it just says "Application not installed", i've tried changing permissions, but it still didn't work.
What can i do ?
System/app
Permissions
rw-r-r
And reboot
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
That didn't work i set permissions and rebooted and tried to install and the same message came up
It´s not ment to be installed!
You install any other launcher just to play safe
Then copy twlauncher and the odex file to system/app, replace, set permission´s to
RW-R--R--
Now just reboot your phone! Choose TW when phone finished reboot
Uninstall the other launcher DONE

First, just install ESexplorer and Holo Launcher. Reboot and you should get a choice of whether to use Holo Launcher or Xperia I think, just make sure its working. Then preferably use adb from recovery, but you can also use Link2SD or similar, to delete /system/app/MyFiles.apk and /system/app/XperiaHome.apk (check the exact name on that one).
U can download the es file explorer and install then later u can delete my files app and u can download the holo from market then in the home screen u can press the home button u will get two options from which u can choose holo and select use as default.
Bro always keep backup don't delete the apps that work properly

To the second step: You can just press the home button.
first install titanium backup (or any other similar app).
install xperia launcher and ES Explorer. Make them system apps using Titanium backup. Now backup my files and holo launcher usin TB again. then uninstall them. those backups dont take much space on your sd card but can be of real help sometimes
Hi
i'm using an AOKP ROM and i have a problem, but i had this problem also with many other (cyanogenmod, miui ...) ROMs...
I installed an update for an system app (playstore)... no problems... if i reboot the app is still updated, but if i shutdown the phone an turn on, the app is "downgraded" to old version!
I used Link2SD: integrate update in rom... this works and android update the system after reboot, but the problem persists
a wipe after convert app to system does not help -.-
now i have the followig questions:
1: how to fix this (without wipe the system)
2: how to modify an ROM.zip to integrate some updates?
thanks in advance

Try this..
1. download latest playstore (v 4.3.11) on your pc
2. transfer it into your phone
3. rename the file to Vending.apk
4. go to system/app and delete the old playstore file
5. now place the dowloaded file in system/app and set permissions rw-r--r--
6. reboot.
now it wont be downgraded..:good:
