Hi,
I accidentally uninstalled the connections setting app that came with me Gio. I installed a few other connection settings app but I like the original one the best and I would like to know where I can obtain a copy of it. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

The app is the blue and white gear style wheel that is second from the right on the bottom row that says settings under it. Let me know if this is sufficient or otherwise I will find another image of it.

Thanks for the file. Unfortunately I don't use windows. I use Linux which allows me to see the sdcard but not anything else. I copied the file onto the sdcard and then tried to use terminal commands to move it but it failed. I also tried installing a few different file manager apps which ask me to install the file but end up failing also. Any ideas?

If you use terminal, you problably have root acces.
Search market, or google, because I cant post it here.
Search ROOT EXPLORER, install it, give it root acces, and copy the file to /system/app then install it and reboot.

OK I got as far as coping Settings.apk to /system/app with root explorer it will not allow me to install Settings.apk.

Instsll first then place it to /system/app and reboot

I tried doing that but I every time I try to install root explorer always says "application not installed". I used root explorer 2.16 if that helps any.

+ Copy all files in those folders to your SD card
+ Open Root Explorer
+ Copy PolarisOffice.apk to /system/app and set permission to rw-r--r--
+ Copy libpolarisoffice4.so, libpolaristextprint.so, libtfapps-polaris.so, libtflua-polaris.so to /system/lib and set permission to rw-r--r--

CM10

It looks like even with the polaris libraries there is still another Samsung library being called
after copying the Samsung LIBs it still FCs when attempting to reference android.sec.clipboard.clipboardexmanager
which appears to be referenced 60 times in 6 files of the PolarisOffice4 code.
we'd either need to find a way to implement this on the non Samsung ROMs, or remove these references in the code and hope it doesn't break it too bad.
Found this on other forum could it be the problem?

[How To] Permanent Chrome or Chrome Beta Desktop View

Root is required. This will enable full time desktop view in Chrome or Chrome Beta. I do not take credit for making this mod, it's something I've been using for quite a while and thought others might enjoy it. Just move the attached file into data/local (not the data folder in internal storage but the system folder). Make sure the file is named "chrome-command-line" without any file extension or quotes. Change permissions to: rw- r-- r-- and then reboot.
If you are using ES File Manager turn on Root Explorer and Show Hidden Files by hitting the button on the top left. Then hit the drop down menu and select "device" then you should see the data folder.

I've never had an issue doing this on several different devices for people over the last year or so. Are you sure you're putting it in the proper folder and changing the permissions correctly? I updated the OP with a pic of the permissions.

how are you getting to that file location?

You're looking in storage (internal sd) and not in the system files. Turn on Root Explorer and Show Hidden Files in ES File manager, then hit the drop down menu and select device then you should see the data folder.

[share][guide]how to set file permission?

Hi all,
some people dont know how to set file permission after push the file/apk etc.. so i share this guide to all...
Big thanks to Sun90 because let me to share his guide...
Sun90 said:
Hey Guys i have often seen lot of Question regarding the same "How to set the file permission,sorry i am a noob please explain?"
well this we come across on all threads, at some given point of time.
Reason being simple that we suggest some people to do as said below:
Hey,
1) copy the file XXXX to your Internal or External sd-card.
2) push the file XXXX to sytem/xxxx folder.
3) set permissions to rw-r--r-- blah blah blah.
4) reboot your phone and see.
Then comes the question again from the same people as below:
Hey,
1) I have done accordingly, but really confused regarding File permission though please explain?
2) How to set File Permission?
3) what is rw-r--r-- blah blah i cannot get it? etc.
So this Simple Guide will defenetly help the people with the same.
Let me not go in depth regarding the same,Since this excellent Tutorial from Matt Doyle explain's in more detail about it
Understanding File Permissions- by Matt Doyle
In order to set the file permission all you need is to have Root explore/Browser or similar type of File manager app been installed on your phone, with Root access.
when you open the File manager you see all your files and folder listed there, thats not our main concern, but something below each one of those file's or folder's, what we are really interested in like:
under say Data folder you see something like 'rwxrwx--x' which is of real concern here.
when you long press on the same Data Folder a pop appears as below
Fig 1
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and when you select Permissions in that pop up menu it appears as below.
Fig 2
as you can see in the pic above the permission is set to 'rwxrwx--x' (771 according to Table below)
So in order to set the right Permission for a file, after you have copied the file to the relavent folder, all you have to follow is the below steps and also the Table guide below it.
1)Any File Manager app like Root Explorer/Browser,Es-file explorer installed with root access (Do ensure to Mount as R/W (Read/Write)).
2)Find the File which you have copied to the appropriate Folder for which you have to set Permissions with the above installed file manager app.
3) Long press on the file to open a pop up menu as shown in Fig 1 above.
4)Set Permission accordingly ( been suggested by people for you) using the table guide below as reference.
5) Then reboot your phone for the same (Permission set) to take effect.
Table Guide for Reference
----------------------------------
No- Box is Unchecked, Yes- Box Checked
So, for example:
777 is the same as rwxrwxrwx
755 is the same as rwxr-xr-x
666 is the same as rw-rw-rw- and so on.
I do hope this Guide will come in handy to all those people who want to set filepermission, but need some clarity upon the same.
All Credit to Matt Doyle for his Excellent Tutorial on 'Understanding File Permissions' which being an inspiration for me to make this Guide.
And also like to Thank the XDA for this wonderfull Knowledge based Site.
All constructive Comments to improve the same by my fellow Member's are Welcome
