system/app/TwWallpaperChooser.apk

Um ok. Was hoping I can add files. Didn't know it was embedded into an apk. I downloaded a bunch of them and all are showing up in my gallery.

can be added to the .apk if you know how to modify .apks
here is a small guide to start with.

: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

So if you have the phone that's locked to three, it has the stock browser installed?

Yeah it appears some Carrier branded roms have the Stock browser. I know O2 Ireland included it with their version.

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.

Unfortunatelly it doesn't work! We need a nasty root access to do such things... so we gotta wait!

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.

well, i have already removed chrome through titanium backup, so uninstalled, nothing to be done there
renamed both files you said, and then tried installing the APK which won't install ...
about logcat, need to search how to do that

Worked for me, cheers. I was crashing initially but a restart sorted it. Nice to have the proper browser back. Was missing Quick Controls.

Stock JB browser from the network Roms

Here's a working Deodexed Browser.apk from the ThreeUK build.
the sim-free xZ come with Chrome as default,
some people prefer the normal android browser (I Like both, so use this and chrome beta )
it does have some features that chrome doesn't such as full-screen and quick-controls.
to install : You will need ROOT !
on an unbranded rom, you will need to remove
system/app/chrome.apk
system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.apk
Possibly remove
data/app/Chrome apk
data/data/com.android.browser.provider
otherwise you could get issues with conflicting package names.
then push this to system/app and chmod to 644
Appears you need chromebookmarksyncadaptor as well to get synced bookmarks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32558502
cheers r1c4rd0 for that

Lost with last step then I think "push this to system/app an chmod to 644 ?"
edit: got it, but still not working (rw-r-r)

copy the browser.apk in root explorer to system/app/ and set the correct permissions to the same as the other files in there rw-r--r- (or 644 as a code) :silly:

Thanks works perfectly

got it, but when trying to open up it forcesloses (though on background you see page loading (something from sony)
on an unbranded rom, you will need to remove
system/app/chrome.apk
system/app/BrowserProviderProxy.apk => renamed
Possibly remove
data/app/Chrome apk
data/data/com.android.browser.provider => renamed

thank you!

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

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
