Thanks in advance
feel free to PM me if need be

Could i get a link that you say?

im looking for a link myself
anyone any luck with this yet?

I know it's the long way round, but you could probably extract it from this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1283081
So I gave it a try and it worked. Just drop the apk into /system/app/ set the permissions and reboot.

Would you please tell me how to set permission to install?

Im assuming you have a file manager installed (Root Explorer, Es File Explorer)
You have to long press the app, after moving into proper folder /sysstem/app/ and set the same permissions as the others (I cant remember which ones they are exactly but you will be able to tell once in the file system).

Attached the file here just in case

Hopefully someone can help me here, I followed the links and after a few attempt's of being told too much traffic I was able to download the system dump, I Extracted on my PC moved the email widget and the supernote APK's to the internal storage of the zoom, then I use Astro to install them it starts the process but if fails I get an error message saying file not installed, what do I need to do so this installs ? and where do I put the ODEX file ? and how do I sign them ?
thanks

You didnt follow the instructions. You shouldnt be trying to install anything because the .apk's are not signed.
However, if you move supernote.apk and supernote.odex into system/app and set proper permissions and then reboot it will work.

still cant install this app. I move both supernote.apk and supernote.odex to system/app. try to set permission in many different ways, but this app still not be installed. i guess i give up.

Are you setting the permissions exactly the same as all other apps in system/app and are you rebooting?
I cant remember which set worked for me - I downloaded the Dump and the ROM but I know one didnt work.
Try both.

Yes, there are two types of permission: rw-rw-rw and rw-r-r. I alredy tried and reboot but still didnt work. I download the dump image. Trying down the Rom now.
---------------
Ok. Using the .apk from the ROM, i got the app installed but FC upon opening.
---------------
finally, got the app working.
+ get the app from ROM link, not the dump link
+ copy supernote.apk to sytem/app
+ using root explorer/es file explorer, set permission : read-write for user-group-and other (rw-rw-rw).
+ reboot

Can someone please save everyone a lot of trouble and post the .apk from the ROM?

here is the link for the app: http://www.multiupload.com/GX9O2CTQ1W

Don't think it'll work on our device. And if it did work for the fascinate you would prolly need to be on a touch wiz rom as well.

What Chopper said could be true. At any rate try this:
Long press on your file
Hit extract
Go to the extracted folder
Long press on your extracted file
Hit move or copy
Navigate to system /app folder
Hit the system rw if necessary
Paste the file
Re boot

I have a different app but same problem. I have ES File Explorer I can copy the file but when I get to system/app I have not been able to figure out how to paste the file. Anyplace I do the long press in system/app there is an app that it thinks I'm wanting to do something with and I don't get the paste option. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Okay so I figured out how to paste it and it wasn't allowed. No I can't find the apk at all. I have even cleared cache and tried to re-download and I get the Ballero-2.apk actually I am up to Ballero-5.apk and can find none of those either.
un-rooted, microSD card, Go Launcher, ES File Explorer, HomeCatcher
Thanks again for your help.

Es file explorer is not as consistent when it comes to giving you root access, which is what you need to paste in system, app. Imo, root explorer is a must.
Edit; although I read that you can obtain that permission somewhere in the es file explorer settings

Android Kitchen

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post. Correct me if it isn't.
My question is if anybody here has used the Kitchen on our device? Is it safe to use?
I have tried to cook a rom with it, but there are some points I'm a little confused about. One of them are the csc code that the kitchen makes a flashable zip out of.
Has someone here been through this?
Are there some things I should be especially aware of?
Sent from my GT-I9305 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

AK safe yes if instructions are followed
Does it work in I9305 sorry not a clue if it says I9305 is supported then yes .
CSC see csc/ modems thread .

This is where i am stuck:
"You can unzip this file and copy the contents of the 'system'
folder to your ROM's system folder."
In my ROM/system/app folder there already are some apk's with those names. Voicetalk.apk, VideoHub.apk, and MusicHub.apk are already there. The only difference is that the files i copy has a exec. picture on them, and that they are renamed with a "copy" at the end of the file name. The size is also different.
Don't know if i should keep both apk files or if i should delete one of them? In that case, which one of them should i delete?

It would be safer to rename them old...

wouldnt rename them old, just move the copys to another folder and then test the rom, if all seems good leave them out due to taking up space!

Could try it, but there is also an apk in there that doesn't have a copy but with the exec. picture in it. Is it safe to have exec. files in that folder?

Been thinking about buying a cheap one on ebay and try different stuff myself. One without imei or something.
I think i have 5 different backups of imei, one on my phone, one in dropbox, and on some different harddrives..lol.. Backed it up with qpst when i bought it. I've never had any use for it, but i've flashed my phone some hundred times i think. Been in bootloop a couple of times but that's all.
Yeah.. maybe i should go for it and give it a try. The only reason i use this method is because it's pretty hard to find a tool that will deodex on mac.

Don't delete it. If you can't rename HtcLockScreen.apk to HtcLockScreen.apk.bak then you don't have permissions to read and write to /system

How to install game data?

Can someone tell me how to install game data in the phone memory. I am facing a problem. In tutorials of installing games hitman go and Leo' fortune, it is said that to copy the data to obb folder. But there's no obb folder and when I make it gives me an error: "change the folder name" or something.... And when I put the data in the "data" folder, the games say "you have not purchased the game"... Please help!
Sent from my XT1092 using XDA Free mobile app

You have to connect your phone to a computer and then you will be able to see the obb folder through the computer. For some reason, it can't be seen through the phone. Not sure if this is due to a lack of root or not. I've had some problems with games still not working, but that could be for an unrelated reason.

Well, in my case i was not able to see the obb folder or create one on my mac. What u can do is:-
1) Install ES File Explorer.
2)copy your obb file into the internal storage.
3)There is an option of "windows" in the file explorer.
4)Then click new on the bottom left.
5)select type file(local).
6)enter path"/sdcard"
7)then use search and type "obb" and enter the folder. now you should be able to see the "obb" folder.
8)now switch "windows".
9)now you can select the obb file and use "cut" option and then switch "windows" by swiping in from right and selecting the obb folder.
10)now just paste your file there and then install apk and run your game.

Thnx !
Thnx to both of U!!! I found it now!!! Thnx again!
