[Q] Restored apps wont run

Hi, yesterday I removed a whole load of junk apps thanks to this thread, but I now have a problem and need help with it.
I decided to move 'SemcGallery3D.apk' and 'SemcCamera3D.apk' to the SD card because I didn't want the 3D option, but then afterwards the panorama and 3D panorama don't work also the whole gallery application doesn't work (not just the 3D gallery). I moved the two files back to the system/app folder, but it still doesn't work, is there another step involved in restoring these?
thanks

hold on the app until the dialog box come out, click permissions, check all the read/write/execute box , see if this help

I just tried this, but it made no difference

Put back both to /system/app. Permission should be rw-r-r

Actually I just checked and the two apps in question aren't rw-r-r, but rwxr-x. So I am guessing that's the problem? I'm still new to all this, so how to I change them back to rw-r-r? Is it to do with how the folder is mounted r/w R/O etc.? Can you explain what's the difference, thanks

use Root explorer (Needs Root) copy the file to the folder, there is a button on the top right side to mount it as RW (re-writable) from RO (Read Only), if you long press on the file, a popup menu will open, from there select permissions, and set it in this order:
R W -
R - -
R - -

System files/apps without the correct permissions will not work, and may even result in bootloops.

Okay thanks, I did this and when I restarted the phone it worked again

REQUEST: Please Create a Bootscreen with this Image

Hi all, I came across this interesting image. It's a GIF and I thought it would look great as a bootscreen animation. I would do it myself, but I'm not exactly savvy with this and I'd rather not cause trouble with my phone. So, if anyone would graciously accept my request, I'd be quite grateful.
This is the image:

PS. Please create one for the resolution of the Wildfire S, which is why I'm posting in this section.

I'll make it for you when I have time.

request done
Here you go dude. delete old one first before copying and set permissions to RW,R,R or 644.

Bro I know how to push that bootanimation.zip have been sucessful in doing so earlier but what permision are you talking about that was my exact question .. cuz i never needed to set permision for boot animations before

adb shell
chmod 644 /system/media/bootanimation.zip
Or open root explorer, navigate to to the zip file, press and hold, tap permissions and set to rw, r, r

Any root method working for 4.1.2 yet?

i have tried the fiddy method of gaining root access, and even though the terminal bat file tells me "root succesful" i have no root access. so i search through the forum, and there is a lot of version difference that seems to confuse me a bit.
i am hoping someone here could point me in the right direction.
my phone is international/EUR no att or sprint or any of that american phone company scam stuff.

if u right clicked and ran a administrator, try just double clicking and running it w/o admn rights and see if that helps

ya well said its will easy for new commers

or just put chargemon, tar archive, .sh file and busybox in data/local/tmp (i dont know it is important where we place it, but this localization is in PC install script) and when we paste files - just run .sh file. thats all.

IMP thing of Recovery
Whenever you Format /system in recovery Dont Close Recovery(Reboot or TURN OFF)
INSTALL STOCK or CUSTOM ROMS AFTER THAT OR RETORE IT (WITH YOUR BACKUP)
BECAUSE AFTER FORMAT THERE IS NO OS IN YOU DEVICE YOUR MOBILE WILL STUCK ON SONY LOGO ..
IF YOU CAN CONNECT XPERIA S WITH PC ITS WILL EASLY TO YOU .. YOU CAN FLASH
BUT THOSE WHO CAN'T CONNECT TO PC [USB NOT RECONISED, UNKNOWN DEVICE] THEY HAVE TO GO TO REPAIR SO PLZ DON'T TO IT
SO BE ALERT ...!!!!!!!!!
