I have tried to install the browser.apk but it says app not installed, any idea how to do it? I'm facing this issue as well.

I'm pretty sure you'll have to copy the browser.apk file to your system/app folder and then reboot your device. You'll need to be rooted to do so

Are you trying to install the AOSP browser, or get HTC's default back?

[Q] [REQ] Stock Blur Camera APK from .893 Update

If anyone is on the .893 update, I would really appreciate it if they could send me the .apk of the stock camera.
Thanks!
EDIT: For some reason, it will not let me upload the .odex file. Keeps saying failed.
Sure: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18572287/BlurCamera.apk
edit: .odex added: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18572287/BlurCamera.odex

Thank you sir!
From the new build correct? Just wanted to make sure. Shutter speed is MUCH faster...

Yessir, from .893 update I performed this morning. =) And I noticed a huge improvement in shutter speed as well.
Can we take this APK and replace our current one? I'm on the stock ROM and rooted... ?
Should work... just rename or make a backup copy of the stock apk.

I'm evidently too noob to figure this out. I located the camera app in \system\app but it can't be moved or anything. Probably need to force it through ADP I'm assuming?
I believe /system/app is r/o by default, so you'd need to remount the filesystem r/w before you can make any modifications to the files. Root Explorer would probably be the easiest way to accomplish the task at hand, or of course do it all through ADB....
I renamed the original BlurCamera.apk and tried installing the downloaded Camera, but it says the application was not installed. Originally I tried installing it from my SD card, so I tried moving it to system\app to install it, but I receive the same message: "application was not installed." I renamed the original Camera back to its original name, moved the downloaded Camera back to my SD card, and now I can't even install the original Camera.
So now I'm completely out of a Camera app, lol. What did I do wrong?

I've never ran d3blurr3d, just r3blurr3d.
I'm a big fan of the bionic camera now that it's been fixed. Quality is great and it actually takes the pic when you want it to.

Same here. I did try changing the permissions and rebooted. I wound up just doing a clean install of everything because I was needing to anyway. However, I would still like to know why this does not work because I would prefer a camera different from the Atrix camera on Reblurred 2.0.

It's the DX camera on Reblurred. But yeah, I'll reflash this tonight and see if I can get it. I've put several different cameras on different ROMs and never had an issue, so I'll see if I can figure it out.
For the camera to work need to include the odex file as well. Should be BlurCamera.odex

[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???

If you want then try putting it in system/app and reboot your phone.
How that works.

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.

I heard that before, many people have the stock browser too!!! I can't understand why. Sony decided to exclude it from many regions.
jb has chrome as stock from what I understand..
come across a snag, chrome is using the same name, so will need removing
I don't have root so can't test that.
see if this works for you.

It was uploaded as an apk, so your browser has renamed it I guess.
So yup rename it to apk .

Ok,
Sorted out the problem (was trying to do it in Windows, now I'm back on a proper OS it's fairly simple to fix )
so here's a working Browser. .
Works for me at least!
I think you'll also need to remove/rename BrowserProviderProxy.apk in system/app/

try removing data/app/chrome apk (in case you updated it)
and data/data/com.android.browser.provider
maybe even data/data/com.android.browser although that should get overwritten..
If not can you get me a logcat? it didn't even need a reboot here.

How to re-sense my phone?

I used Titanium Backup to delete HTC Sense from my phone, because I read in multiple places that it just slows the phone down if you have a costum launcher installed. Problem is: I remember thinking about doing it, but I am not even really sure I did it. I only know that when pressing home, it doesn't give me the choice to enter in it. How to tell if I removed it? And if I did, is it possible to restore it somehow e.g. factory reset, without a backup?

The way you can check if it's deleted is either go to titanium backup and search for the app, or go into the apps menu and search for the app again.
You can get it back by either Reflashing the rom or having a backup. Or go to the rom root dir system/apps and search for it there.
I've been using CM10 so I don't remember the exact app name, but it shouldn't be hard to figure out :3

Download the ROM, extract the apps you want from /system/app, copy those files to you phone's /system/app directory and change permissions rw/r/r.
You can you any file explorer to do this
