Hi there,
My N7100 is troubling me with a weird issue. The phone works absolutely fine except for Gallery. When I open Gallery it slows down, freezes takes forever to zppm etc. I went to app settings, and did a clear data, enable/disable, clear cache for the Gallery app but it didn't help. I've even done a factory data reset from the backup and restore menu but still no joy.
Please help!
You can install the new gallary and camera? Maybe that helps

Thanks that sounds promising but how do I install the new gallery app? Where do I find it? Is it possible my phone's not rooted?
Have u disabled gallery syncing?
You can try this?

I've looked everywhere that I can think of, or but can find what I'm looking for, and so here goes.
I was wondering if there is an apk available for the ICS Peoe app?

This is the AOSP contacts apk.

Thanks. I've tried installing it & it won't install, so it looks like I'm stuck with the SE Contacts app.

Don't install it, use root explorer or similar, move it to /system, change permissions and then move to apps.

OK thanks, what do permissions need to be set to? Will I be able to remove the stock Sony Contacts app as well? Roland

Using root explorer, it's x x, x, x from top down. Use your file manager to check permissions on another app and use the same.

Use jj's rom its all almost aosp looking and feel it has aosp contacts

And then?
What do I do after setting permissions & moving to /system/app? I can't find any way to open it, and it still won't install ("Parsing Error")
Thanks!
You reboot your phone and it should replace the stock app.
I followed the instructions.
1. Copy Contact.apk inside system/app
2. Changed permission to rw-r-r which is same for other apps
3. Rebooted, I see get my xperia stock contacts.
I am sure I missed something, when I try to install from system/app it does not install.

You don't install it, you just replace it.

Great, but some how I can't find the default contact.apk to replace
Perhaps my mistake, using Xperia Pureness rom, possibly its moved somewhere else.
Look in the themes and apps section, I've uploaded the apps folder for situations like this.
Sent from my Phone.
Okay I found out that this rom is using PhoneBook.apk for contacts.
I tried removing PhoneBook.apk and keeping just Contacts.apk reboot
Renamed Contacts to PhoneBook reboot
But in vain.
Permissions are same.
Now restored PhoneBook.apk until I find a solution to get Contacts.apk to run.
So I'm trying to replace some original system apps that i deleted from de-bloating. I basically just copy paste it via ES file explorer to system/app and change permissions to rw- r-- r-- and restart. I've gotten apps working using this method before, but some apps don't seem to want to re-install when I do this. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Which apps are you trying to reinstall?
Do they maybe have dependent libs? If I were u, I'd just do a nandroid backup, reflash the ROM, and maybe restore your data only from the nandroid.

The one's i'm trying to get back are VPN client and the stock music player. They both come with odex files and I'm pulling them straight out of an image so I doubt they're corrupt. I was thinking about starting over, but it's a lot of work redoing my theming. I guess I'll live without the apps for now.
im using jedi mind trick jb rom.. but i realy love the jellybean stock music player..
Apollo or Google play?

What are the permissions to be set at? I pushed this and the stock file manager to system apps, fixed permissions via recovery, but neither work. When I use Root Explorer to check the apks they show different permissions from all the other system apps. MusicPlayer and SecNoteMyFiles show rwxrwxr-x while the other apks show rw-r-r-- I guess I need to manually change them?
EDIT - Actually what happens is they don't show in the app drawer, so I tried to install them from the system app folder, but I keep getting an error "Application not installed".

No go for me. They just don't want to work. I don't know why. I was on the stock ROM via ODIN. Everything worked. I pulled five apks from the system app folder. Three of them work, but the MusicPlayer and FileManager don't. I tried them both ways. I left the permissions as is, rebooted, and nothing. I did what you said, and still nothing. Got me. I'm running Jedi Mind Trick JB 3.

Yes. I tried it several times. It just won't show in my apps I guess. Do I set perms before or after pushing to sys/app?

First I want to thank you, and say sorry for making you help me so much, as I'm now realizing it would have worked if I just used your version from the beginning. I've been trying to get the one I pulled from my stock ROM when I was running it. It seems my APK is not the right one. Yours worked the very first time. It's also bigger than mine by about a MB. Where did you pull it from? I pulled mine directly from the system/app folder.
Also since mine didn't work for this, or my File Manager APK, would it be possible for you to share that too? Or tell me where to get it? Thanks again.
Follow the white rabbit....

Ah, I think that was it. I pulled mine from my stock odexed ROM. I just pulled the File Manager from a stock deodexed ROM, and it works. Now I have all my apps again. Thanks again for the help. :good:
I'm running 4.1.1 with the 4.2 camera and can't successfully upgrade to 4.2 without a bunch of hassle so I'd like to just turn off the "system update available" notification and the annoying popup that's associated with it. I'm rooted and have all the typical apps (Ti backup, root browser, busybox, voodoo, etc.).
I've searched all over and can't find how to get these notifications to go away. Deleting the OTA files works for a short time but it's not a long term solution. Thanks.

in Titanium back-up you can find the system update and freeze it so it won't try to update anymore

Well, I put it in the app folder and changed the permissions and then rebooted. First thing that popped up on the screen once it had rebooted was the OTA notification. Am I supposed to be able to open this app to set it up or something? I can't find it in the app tray and it appears so far it's done nothing to help the situation. Thanks.
Hi,
I would like to put the McAfee app back on my G3. The find my phone feature looked reasonable when I was running the stock ROM.
Can anyone post it? I assume its not just the normal McAfee app from the playstore.
Thanks
Odexed (Stock). Unzip and push to system/priv-app/
FYI, there is a thread with system dumps etc if you search.

Did you reboot after copy and changing permissions, then just run the app from normal app icon, no need to install.

Hi there. I have a D855 installed FulmicsRom-5.0. I wanted to install McAfee to my phone. The provided apk works but it's not have some futures i needed. Newer versions, like v30c stock include, have private photo taking of intruders etc. I tried to install the one from my v30c twrp backup (extracted to PC); but it don't work. Always displays "Sorry, McAfee has stopped" or something like that. Is there a way to install my McAfee version (namely version 4.5.0.7066)? Any help is appreciated. Here is the relevant files from /system/priv-apps folder: ( Oopsss... i can not post my dropbox link to the zip)
What permissions you put? I have fulmics 5.2 and error when open app
