[Q] reinstall connections setting app

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,

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.

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?

Wi-Fi problem with Jelly Bean fix - Regional

Hey guys, after alot of heartache over this stupid problem, I found a fix.
Wi-Fi didn't work with Jelly Bean updates .200 and .211 in Syria and Iran no matter what.
Now with Root Explorer, and the attached file u can forget about that forever.
Instructions:
1. Extract this file to the SD card.
http://www.4shared.com/file/gANo_9ON/wpa_supplicant.html
2. Go to system/bin copy the file wpa_supplicant to the SD card "backup"
3. Now copy the attached file to the same folder and fix permissions.
4. Reboot and have fun.
Note that Wi-Fi should be turned off during the whole process.
Credit to my friend Raed.
And pray that I pass my pathology exams.
Regards.

Tell it "YES!"
Things work smooth most of the time. But sometimes it freezes so u have to turn it of and on again.
Still better that to work in airplane mode.
Hope this will be fixed in the new build.

[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
