Good luck with that. I've tried for days to do that. Some you can just rename them in root explorer. Some won't work if you do. I've torn apart apks and can't find it any place.

Where do you guys get that option just tried in two diff apps to open a pic, and it just says gallery.

Install root explorer or ES explorer. It will give you the option to open files with these programs. Once you have them you can also use root access to apps for adjustments to the files.

one spot you can change the name is /res/values/strings.xml another is in the android manifest but it needs to be decompiled.

Yikes. Guess I'll live with it. Thanks folks

Replacing TW MMS App with stock MMS app.

How can I go about doing this? I've tried deleting the stock Mms.apk and replacing it the stock ICS Mms.apk, then deleting dalvik and cache, but the app would freeze.
Search in market and disable the default touchwiz mms

No, look. Download the messaging apk you want. Copy it. (probably not needed but cover yo ass is my standard) now use root explorer to delete the stock messanger. Then place your app in the system/app folder. Go to it there and open it. Install it. (hit yes when it says replace if it does.) probably dont need to but reboot your phone after that. Just make you feel like you made a big move. Then open your messenger. If it dont work pm me. If it does then thanks are in order!! happy texting!

For ringtones, it's easier for file system to find it if you place is in system/media/ringtones
I've always just used Audiko for all my ringtones/notifications (even when I was on iPhone). There's an apk for it around, but I can't remember offhand if it's in the Play Store or not....

Their site (audiko.net) lets you upload songs into their vast database, clip them into ringtones, and send them to your phone formatted for whichever type of mobile you use (iPhone or Android). You can also access any ringtones you've added via your phone and download them to your pc, for whatever reason. It automatically creates a username (your gmail address) and emails a randomly-generated password to you so you can log in to the website if you want. If you were to 'sign up' via the website you could also link it with facebook or another email address instead of gmail, and on iPhone it would use your Apple ID.
It's not the greatest system, and it would be nice if it let you choose whether or not to create an account (since you can do everything their site does from your phone via other apps), but I've been using it for 4 years and can assure you it's nothing malicious. (even though the website does look rather sketchy lol).
I use it because I can pull up pretty much any song I can imagine and have it set as a ringtone in a matter of seconds, but if you know of or happen to come across anything comparable, please share!
Cheers!

Re: Need help
1.) Are you on a ROM? Which ROM?
2.) What app? Is it one app or all apps causing this issue?
3.) So you have the 32gb sgs3?
4.) Have you done any mods that mess with your storage?

Re: Need help
I'm guessing you're rooted? Apps like Titanium Backup or Adaway may cause this issue. Go into any root browser app and in the root directory go into /data/app/ and delete any .odex files you may see and then reboot the phone. That should fix the issue.

There isn't any of those folders it's not working
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
There are always /data/app and /system/app folders in the root directory of your ROM so make sure to use a root browser to view them and first go into /data/app/ and look for any. odex files and delete them. That usually does fix the problem you're having.

Here's a screenshot example of what you should be looking for and deleting. My Battery Reborn apk has an odex file attached to it

There's no folder data/app there's system /app but closes when I open
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
The only way you'll only see /system/app is if you're looking in the rom.zip file. You must already be on the ROM you're having issues with and then you MUST see /data/app because that is where all your user installed apps are located. So 1)Flash the ROM you're having app issues with and 2) Install and open any root browser like the one in Rom Toolbox and you'll see /data/app.

CM 11 hidden system/media, help please.

Hey guys, quick question. Does anyone know a fix yet for CyanogenMods nice little bug where it likes to completely ignore the system/media folder? Besides that the newest nightly is running flawlessly so far. I've tried hooking up to pc, ran many media scanners, a few root browsers, and still come up with nothing. I can see them in CWM but nothing else. All .nomedia's have been looked over as well. Kinda stumped on this one.

Or at least have an idea how to keep them from disappearing when flashing to it from another rom? Either solution would work.

system/media shows the same files as /data/media apparently on mine, but yep after looking through the browser data/media seems to have them without having to look through CWM (like I had to with system). So how do I go about making CM actually see that this folder exists?

mnt/shell/emulated has the same files as /data/media though. Or so it appears. Basically looks like an exact copy.

I'm kind messed up with the kk stuff but.... CM/ASOP ROMs create an 0 folder and that's where CWM looks for files if you've flashed CM. Have you tried a stock rom to find the files?

Ok. You should have an "0" folder. If not create one in root of SD. Copy files to it, then see if cwm will see them. It should.

Basically all my personal files, music, pictures, backups, etc. Have just vanished from galleries and such when I switched to CM. I can physically see all the files on CWM but absolutely can not on any root browser or...well, anywhere. So in a nutshell, just trying to access all my stuff.

So you can see the files in ClockworkMod recovery? Interesting way to look for them.
Stock and CM roms will not let you see them.
If you go back to stock, you should be able to access them. I'm not sure why you can't in CM.

Went through and kept combining folders. Made the 0 at the root of the SD and kinda pushed everything into it. Still wasn't showing. So I went through each individual folder and for some reason each one had a sub folder named just like it. So in each one I went in and boom all the files. Moved them out of the sub and now they're showing up! No idea why they put it in there but oh well. Thanks for the advice!

You could always just use any file explorer and go to sdcard and create a folder with a period front it's name. Instead of a folder named naughty_pix u would make it .naughty_pix. And then it should be hidden from any gallery app. That's how I do it on kk.
