I have had nova prime installed in my Note 3 from day one, but I can't find that file in my phone anywhere.
I drilled down to the folder listed, but that file is not there.

Yes, it is rooted and es is set to show hidden files.
I just tried to find that file with root browser and that doesn't show it either.

O wow. I don't know what to tell you. It's somewhere on that phone. Sorry I can't help with that then. That's where it's been on all my devices. In that folder

It does not show in that folder (or any other folder doing a complete system search with root explorer) in my phone.

Sorry to hijack the thread although much easier method here guys: refer to my thread.

I figured out an even easier way (I'm not sure why I didn't think of this before)
I have an app in my phone called "app monster pro". It is one of the handiest apps I have ever purchased, I've used it for years.
It backs up every app in your phone (similar to titanium BU), but what's really cool is you can set it to automatically make a "plain style BU" of every app you install.
What this does is save the apk from every app you install to a folder on my external 64 gig card.
I realized I already had the apk's for both the nova prime key & nova launcher. I installed Nova prime with wondershare using those apk's & it works super.
AppMonster is real handy for reinstalling apps after flashing a ROM or factory reset etc.

Yep - same here. I'm gonna do a thorough search and see if I can find it. Using a Galaxy S3 so might be a different directory for some reason.

Look under /data/app paid apps were moved there I believe. At least that is where mine is at.

Use titanium.
Click on app.
Window will popup to backup or uninstall or restore.
Pres on yhe file name which is in yellow color.
It will show you the path of that apk.
Use solid Explorer otr any other one to navigate to that path.
You will find it with the name of pkg. Pkg

cant find the right files
tried all methods of this but cant seem to get the right files.
I am able to get the .apk
but not specifcally the pkg.apk
The file just does not exist
I have torrent files of .apks that work to install other apps through wondershare
but when I try to install nova Launcher prime that way it does not work
cannot uninstall regular nova launcher via wondershare either
also trying to figure out how to uninstall nova launcher from the adb commands

I don't have it installed but I was able to find it on the market using my GTAB.
What ROM your on? I can't find it on Vegan. The only one that shoes up is the one for phones and it doesn't recognize that I'm on WiFi.

I'm on VEGAn Beta 5.1
I have full market capability, Ok.. Maybe its more like 98.9% capabilities.. *lol*
Check this video on getting full market, it really worked for me with this ROM.

Edit: I just installed "NYTimes for Android Phones" and it works fine with the GTAB.
I'll try that later, it tells me there's no connection.
P.s. I hate your tab for having it work lol

You might be interested in checking out Readers Hub and Zinio with it. The combination will let you subscribe to hundreds of newspapers and almost a hundred magazines. It works great on my gTab running VEGAn beta 5.1.

Pardon the newbie, but how do I install this? I tried renaming to an API, but while that brings up the normal install screen with permissions, it then won't install.

Do not rename it. Copy the zip to your gTab (I use my Download directory) and then launch it by selecting it and it will install. You must have set your gTab to allow for installation of "unknown sources" in your Settings --> Application --> Unknown Sources.
If you're going to be doing a lot of sideloading I would highly recommend you sign up for a free Dropbox account which will allow you to move files back and forth from any device that you install Dropbox on.

So, I already had that in settings, but when I go to "select it", ES File Manager does not give me an option to install. If I "double click" it simply navigates into the ZIP file. Obviously some simple step I'm overlooking?
I flashed it in cwm.

You could use clockworkmod to flash it as djunio has written.

Same problem as renaming to an APK. It starts to install, then quits with no message other than "Application not Installed". I'm wondering if it is checking for something that is (or isn't) present on my G-tab.
I'm running Vegan 5.1 with the ClemSyn kernel if that would make a difference.
I would download it again then flash the zip in cwm. Maybe it got corrupt somehow.

You guys will need to uninstall the existing version with something like Root Explorer or Titanium Backup, then manually move the apk to the /system/app folder, then reboot.

Thanks for your response. Where do I download the .apk file? I can't find it on Samsung's website nor on Google's Play store. And when you say "Place them at system", what do you mean exactly. Which folder?

Thanks for this info. Yes I am a "noob" to Android. Actually I write programs and am trying to find my way around this device (Galaxy Note) to understand it more and customise it, partly by writing programs for it. But there are loads of terms I don't understand on Xda and I will have a lot of questions. Thanks for your help.

you need a root file explorer. once you have that, go to /system/apps, where it says Mount R/W, tap it so that you can write to system, push the Samsung apps into the folder, long press the file, change permissions to how it looks for all other apps, then tap Mount R/O

:silly: Looks too complicated for me. Haha!
You can find stock wallpapers on a Samsung folder.... you can try searching it as well for the name of that wallpaper in ROOT explorer... Root explorer has a search function where you can search the specified file... you can try that as well.
Also try \system\framework\framework-res.apk->\res\drawable\default_wallpaper.jpg
all system wallpapers are there in TwWallpaperChooser.apk

Facebook problem

I can't find any downloaded file from the facebook app. I click on it, it downloads it, it shows in the notifications and I can only open it from there. Once the notification is gone I can't open that file again. It won't show up in the downloads directory or facebook's directories. Can't find it even using the search option from files manager. It only happens with the files that I need to download to view. If I save a picture I have no problem. Storage permission is on for facebook. It's like it downoads it but doesn't save it.
