Having installed a custom ROM (carbon) as much as i love the rom it doesn't come with Xperia Link.
As i have an Xperia tablet Z it would be really useful.
I have tried backing up the APK with Astro but when i tried to install it on my new rom it just refuses to install saying "App not installed" Just to make it clear it's the Xperia Link phone lient i want. Any suggestions?
Try to install it from playstore.

I tries that, it says it's not compatible with my device
Put the apk file that you've backup in system/app and set permissions rw-r-r and reboot.

Still no joy, Just to make sure i did the right thing... i copied the file to System/App using root browser then long click, permissions and on owner tick read, write & exectable rebooted then tried to install? It still said "app did not install"
You should not install,it will show up with the applications or in the settings(i don't remember)if it's working.

No still no joy. Cuiously though the astro backed up apk is called "com.sonymobile.xperialink-1.apk"
But when i looked in System/Apps on the stock rom no such app exists only "SomcXperiaLink.apk" When i try to copy, move or archive that file it fails even after a force stop.
Hope this helps thanks for your help so far.

Hi, I want to use Arc launcher in GingerXperiaRay v4. I tried to put it in /system/app and set permissions.
Rebooted, then nothing changed. Then I deleted the default launcher from /system/app and place the Arc launcher. Just bootlooping. Then I created a flashable .zip and flashed in CWM. Nothing changed. What can I do?

I am using rooted JVU firmware and would like to install ICS keyboard to my system/app.
I used Root Explorer to copy the apk file into the directory and did a reboot, and the keyboard appeared on my locale and text menu.
However, when I try to select the keyboard, it always return a force close.
Can anybody teach me on how to solve this issue?
There is a thread called "How to: Push apps(.apk)" - you will have to try to use the search function for that name cause I don't think I can post a link yet

I did the search and tried the way as taught, end up having the force close issue.
Is it that not all apk can be installed onto system/app?

You can also try an app called "system cleanup". I'm not sure if it's on the market but there is a thread where you can dl it or you could use titanium pro

Ics keyboard is made to work on android 4.0.x framework ported from Nexus S, ok?
As you revealed in OP you are using Sammy JVU 2.3.6 TouchWiz infected framework.
Why not try to rip out HTC keyboard and push that too while you're in the mood?
When you push an ask to system/app am I write in saying it does not deleted in factory reset..??
What about pushing to system system/media..??
When pushing an apk to system folder,u need root and there is 2 easy ways,either use a root explorer and just push it to the system/app folder or use titanium backup to revert to system app.factory reset(full wipe) doesn't wipe system apk,but everthing else is wiped..
U can also push apk to system via ADB.but a little bit of knowledge is needed

My XT used to be fine: unlocked bootloader, rooted, could uninstall what I wanted...
But as some of you know, after flashing Sony's JB ftf, and following root methods, the SuperSU apk is installed, but doesn't work...
My phone claims to be rooted... but no system apps can be uninstalled, I have now realized that this is permanent. I have flashed CM10 and the deletion of system files still fails...
Thanks in advance.
P.S. Just encase you tell me to try again or that I did something wrong, I DEFINITELY did stuff how they are supposed to be done and tried many times.
Binaries are all in place and up to date (/system/xbin/su)???

I noticed that I removed system apps with doom kernel and that when I flashed stock kernel the apps were still there... I thought I had this problem as well. But I removed them again using titanium and now they are gone.
One thing to note. I also rebooted my phone for the first time last night and when it rebooted I got the grey triangle thing. I left my phone overnight and now it's fine... Not sure if it's related but...

Nope did that, not working.
Doesn't even allow me to remove apps when using Doom Kernel...
Which method are you using to remove them?
Are you using titanium or removing the apks from system\app using root explorer

Uninstalling via ES File Explorer.
I also cannot delete the apks.
Then when flashing a new ROM (even after wiping everything), still no luck.

I'll use Sony's flashtool and go back to ICS, that should fix it.
I might just have to wait for the official update, things might work for me then.
Have you tried flashing supersu and binaries in recovery? You can download it from chainfires thread

Or just use the pre rooted zip from timin8r in development section (stock, rooted and deodexed).
Also kernel is flashable trough zip so all you need is cwm to start with.

Yep, tried all of that, still didn't work. Very strange. Flashed stock ICS ftf, just gonna wait until the JB update is available on Sony Flashtool, things might work better then, for some reason.
I've heard about some system apps being not just in the system folder, but in another folder too (might have been data?) It's happened before that people delete the one in the system folder but the app pops back after a reboot... probably won't help, but always worth checking?
Click the thanks button if I helped!

I've experienced this on occasion, it's been in /data/app also and pushes back to /system/app on reboot. Both must be deleted

No, that's not the problem, it's acting as if I'm not rooted; I can't delete these system files.

I might be saying somehting you have tried here, but have you tried deleting using titanium backup?
What about trying superuser by chainsDD rather than supersu

Going to try my luck with the new kernel with recovery.
EDIT: No, still not working...
Thought about formatting all partitions and sdcards, and then flash ftf , boot, flash kernel with twrp, boot, flash superuser and/or update.zip?

You will need root

Sorry to ask, but did you root your phone?
You can try my modified platform.xml (attached)...
Remember to set rw,r,r permission on file after put on /system/etc/permission/
Or you can try to place the original file (attached) and apply the SD-Fixer from Google play like I did...
My version is 14.4,a.0.108 for c6943...good lucky
