I want to be able to move an apk into the system app folder and root explorer has been the only app that allows me to do that but I wanna do it for my gf's fascinate and I don't wanna buy it again. So far I tried androzip but it doesn't utilize root privilege and super manager wont let me open a zip for free (stupid). Any suggestions? Any help is appreciated

Not that i know of.
While i don't encourage pirating, i bet you could find a root explorer download if u do some googling.
AndRoot or Super Manager, got both free from the market. Android optimizer has a file manager that works as well. Free in market too.
Why don't you just log into your Google acct and redownload it on her phone

Just bluetooth the app over to her phone. As long as you stop right there then its all personal use. And if she passes it on....withhold love.

Why open a .zip? Extract it in ASTRO first.
Samsung Fascinate, Verizon
EB01 Superclean 2.4
Kenesis' TransMyst GBKB (EPIIIIIC)
Mob87's Honeycomb Theme
Stock Kernel
+1 for super manager

Actually I did extract then but then.once I got there I couldn't get it into system apps. I used super manager and I would try to copy the apk but everytime I pressed copy it would say "prepare to copy" then nothing happens.
I didn't even think about Bluetooth transferring it I'm gonna give it a try

I use ghost commander w.o any problems
You can always su in a terminal and do whatever you want, right? Might need to remount r/w but I think it's already mounted r/w on most roms.
I think the problem you are having with super manager is that your phone is not mounted correctly go to the market and download mount Rw/ro and click in the app and click set at boot and click rs and then you can move apps with that method

Silly question maybe but after you initiated the copy did you then move to the system/app folder a tap the paste icon? I have been able to use Super Manager to copy .apk files with no problems.
I see you are now using ghost commander. I might have to give that one a try.

which of these can be downloaded without market access?
ES file explorer has root access and zip/rar support.

Since you already bought the app, it technically wouldn't be illegal for you to just google rootexplorer.apk and install it to her phone. Just delete it after for moral reasons.

i vouch for this app as well.
Now that I have my phone rooted. I want to be able to view my core system files. I.e. stock alert sounds and other core files. How do I do that. The file explorer I have now only shows me whats in my internal storage and sdcard.

Just search in the market for "root file manager. "Root Explorer" is by far the best in my opinion.

Hi guys. Just followed the guide on how to root LQ2 and all went well I think. Whats the quickest and easiest way to check that I have root? Super user is installed and opens.

Download a app that requires root and see if it can get root access

Just look if you have "Superuser" or "Super SU" installed.
You can download titanium backup for example and check if it requests root access. You can also try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck
Guys thanks for quick reply. I downloaded root explorer and it asked for access. This was a bit of a daft thread but I had a total mind blank on easiest way to check.it.

You should be able to paste a file to the system folder if your note has root. Use a program like ES file explorer to enable root and write on the system folder.
This is the one thing I am having a problem with actualy. Trying to move the S3 contacts into system folder but get failed message. Any idea?

I'm rooted and on Android Revolution HD 7.0
When I try to access the root folder in explorers ES, Astro and Solid they ask for SuperUser permission, which I grant but then the folders show empty.
I had problems a few days ago (see link) - where I ended up sideloading a ROM from my computer - could this be the cause?

Im rooted too and I can see them with Rom Tool Box Pro.

Can you see them in Astro, ES or Solid Explorer?
Can be a issue with the read and write with the Rom. Might need to flash latest version if Nike fixed it or whatever

I've got a Kindle Fire HD that is barred from the Amazon Store. There are no "useful" Apps on like ES File Explorer that I need to install GApps Store. It's Rooted but I can't work out how to sideload the File Explorer.
Any tips or links to guides?
Thanks
Just use the web browser and Google aptoid market download the apk install it by simply selecting it then search for es file explorer or any other apps you need. you should also be able to root it and install play store.

Thanks! I've got Aptoide Market and ES File Explorer now. I don't like the Kindle launcher at all and ideally I want to turn it into a Nexus 7, or as close to it as possible, type of device. Any pointers to guides on how to do this? I've installed Nova Launcher from the Aptiode Market but can't figure out how to get it to run.
Thanks.
I run nova launcher as well it has to be made a system app which means you must have a rooted kindle
I believe you just find the file nova launcher apk named Tesla coil something. Apk and move it into your system folder.

Honestly though if I were you i would follow the install second boot loader thread by hashcode in the Dev section and then follow the guide to install. Cm
10.2 in the Dev section that is what your kindle is best suited for though since you don't have a fast boot cable you will have to issue a command to put your kindle in fast boot mode BUT if you goof you'll be ordering or making one for your soft bricked kindle
