Need Conservations.apk and odex - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone!
Recently I rooted my phone and begun to tweak it. So I decided to integrate all updated system app to system partition . After that the camera wasnt working so I restored a nandroid backup. Everything was good until I tried to open the SMS app. It crashed imidiately. I wiped its data, cache and dalvik but it didn't work. Then using root explorer I navigated to priv - apps and see if was anything wrong with the permisions. Everything was ok so i decided to delete the odex File and reboot. But after the reboot the SMS app was missing although the APK was still there. I am on stock kitkat locked bootloader. Any help please?

Delete .odex files without deodex? You need to deodex first, also some apps need libs... You need to extract it from apk and copy to "system/lib"

question about deodex and backups

Ok so this deodox will pull my apk, and odex files and modify them. If i went thru and renamed all the bloatware so they are running this will cause an issue since they are no long .apk and they are now .bak.
I should probably run the deodex before I mess with anything in rom manager correct?

[Q] Flashable Stock Browser file?

Hello everyone!!
So i got myself a WiFi Xoom and rooted it. By mistake uninstalled the stock browser with titanium backup and now its gone from the system. Can any of you please provide me with a flashable file so i can flash it via recovery and restore app?
I tried getting the apk from one of the system dumps on the developer section but when i try to install it i get the message "App not Installed".
did you move the apk to system/app and give it correct permissions rw/r/r?

I tried to copy the apk to the system/app folder using ES file exlorer but it does not let me, and i dont know how to set the correct permissions.
Use RootExplorer, it does all mentioned stuff
Put the apk into this file. Put it in the system/app folder and flash in recovery.

I've Lost My Browser
EDITED:::Nvmd, replaced browser.apk with the ones from system dump, as mentioned in OP, and that resolved my issue of not being able to use the stock browser.

Help - Deleted Apps

Okay, I rooted and deleted apps before there was a recovery. Now I want to put the apps back on before recovery and backup. I'd like to have these apps on my phone should I need to return the phone. Problem is, I deleted "Guided Tours" and "News" and I have no idea where to find these apps. Everything else is on my phone. Any suggestions?
Go use the sbf or what ever its called now. Flash Your phone then reroot then do what You need to do.

Here are the files you wanted. They are in zip format and have the corresponding .odex files. Place these in your /system/app folder and be sure to to change the permissions to rw-r-r-- on each file.

Just run the FXZ(Formerly SBF) if you want to install an OTA, if/when one comes out. No need to get your apps back just to make a stock backup. The FXZ gets you back to stock.

I have both zip files in /system/app - do I extract these here and install? When I clicked on permissions - I changed it to - Owner: write, Group: read, Others: read. Is that correct?
Right now what I see in my /system/app is GuidedTours.apk and NewsWidget.apk. I don't see any ODEX files

Unzip this to /system/app then change permissions.
XDA doesn't allow .odex files to be upload - says unknown file type.
This might come in handy for you. It's my /system/app dump all apks and.odex files from stock bionic.

[Q] Restore stock camera

Anyway to restore the stock camera App ?
I have moved the Camera APP from "/system/app" to sdcard and then to my pc.I changed the icon to ICS Camera icon and now when i try to install it says to replace it,i click yes and after the process finish says "app not installed".
I have the APK and the .odex file of the f***** camera,just need a way to install it.
if you picked it up from /system/app then you need to restore it in /system/app itself
backup your current working camera apk and odex [as you have]..
move modified files to /system/app and change permissions to rw-r--r-- as others then only it will work.. if it doesn't reocognise in first attempt after permissions then reboot and see if it works...
if it doesn't simply means modifications don't work --> restore

Put the Camera.apk to /system using any root file manager and then set the permission to rw-r-r. Reboot. Here is the link,
Stock Camera App
If that doesn't work, just backup the data and then reflash the stock rom using odin. Hope I Helped

.odex files - should I remove them ?

Hello,
I have a quick question: should I remove an .odex file after uninstalling its application ?
For example, I recently uninstalled Aurora.apk via Titanium Backup, should I remove Aurora.odex file as well ?
Regards,
michael.

Yes, once the application .apk is removed, you can remove it's .odex files too. They are of no use without it's .apk file.
Where can i find the .odex file in the file managers?
Where can i find the .odex file in the file managers?
i removed an app and was trying to install an updated one, but its not letting me to install. so if i remove the odex file from the system, it'll let me to install it>
user apps wont have a .odex file. if its a system app and you are running an odexed rom then you will find those files in system/app
Can i remove all .odex file in system/app
i deodexed system/app and framework using kitchen and flashed in cwm still .odex file present in system/app

What's API when you deodexed? .odex should be gone after deodexing. Try deodexing again, Set API=10 before deodex both apps & fm
