I have pacman 4.3. I am having problem installing some apps, not all apps, i kept trying to reinstall but always say installation failed. I also tried to install these apps on another phone, they work, but not on my phone. I tried to clean cache on market, google account etc, no luck. Anyother suggestion?
Please help.

Alright, i firgure out the problem and how to fix it.
Download the apk you want to install, put the apk file under data/app or system/app. You need es file explorer or root explore to do so. After that go to your twrp or cwm recovery and do fix permission.
Hope this helps!

Hello all, I have rooted the phone and installed "no bloat" from the play store. I try to delete all the bloat apps..such as play books, but it fails to delete even after i grant it su acess.
What could be wrong?
I am running stock ics ( i find it better for me than cm9 at the moment)

I suggest trying Titanium Backup and seeing if there is a difference. It has helped me remove any bloat I did not want on my phone on many roms, including stock rooted ICS.

What's your root app: Super SU or Superuser?
Also how did you root? Flashing the Root.zip file in CWM?

You are getting the super su prompt when launching titanium backup, correct? I've heard some issues with some people not having full root privileges on the stock rom. Try running a darkside cache wipe (in the dev section), reboot phone, and try again.

Please be sure to run the CACHE wipe and not the actual system wipe. Hope this resolves your issue.
download this app called root uninstaller. its so easy and free. i use this app instead because it only does one thing, which is delete any apps on your phone. system apps bloat apps and regular apps. keep it simple.
Could also be su issues. You could try to go in and delete the permissions and try again. Probably an issue with root though. could try a root check, dl updated bb and su, or just start over.
Thanks for the help everyone so far.
I went back to stock gb and rooted. Deleted the bloat
Thanks again!

Unrelated to the epic...I rooted my sisters phone while she was visiting over the weekend. She had to leave before I could flash CM7 on her phone so I'm doing it remotely right now. Her phone is old and has no support really so I'm asking here. When I try to boot in CWM it won't. I have figured out why but cannot fix it remotely. Is there a way to get gapps installed without going through CWM? Like download the .apk files individually and install them so she can at least log into her google account until I can fix it?

I think maybe you could download the gapps zip, extract it somewhere, and copy the apk files into the /system/app folder on the root of the phone. You'd have to use a file manager on the phone with root access, I recommend ES File Explorer, if you use this one then you have to tic a couple settings: Up to Root, Root Explorer, and Mount File System. After you copy the files into the system/app folder (ON THE PHONE, NOT ON THE SD CARD) then reboot the phone and should hypothetically be working.
Without having gapps, she will need to install amazon app store to get es file explorer, unless you want to track down the apk for it for her. As long as her browser is working she should be able to download the amazon app store without any trouble.
Thank you! Will give it a try.

Hm it keeps saying copy failed which sounds like there is no root but there is and things can be deleted. Anyone good with adb know if it can be flashed that way?

Weird. It installed googleservicesframework but nothing else. I still can't write anything to the root but I can delete. Its like I have half a rooted device. But I get an "install parse failed no certificates error" when I try anything else.

I switched ROMs from AOKP to AOSPTW or whatever its called. YouTube in the market said it couldn't update because the file was signed incorrectly or something. I uninstalled YouTube using titanium backup and now Google play says "incompatible update" or something. When I try to restore my backup it keeps going and never restores. Any help in getting YouTube back without having to flash anything, or reflash anything?
Use a file browser, open up the ROM zip, navigate thru the files until you get to the system/apps, copy the you tube all and paste it into your system/apps. Make sure you fix the permissions. Reboot and you'll have it back. It was purposely signed the way it was to make it work with the ROM. If you read his thread he explains it several times. Or, you can reflash the ROM wiping only dalvic and cache.

If i use es file explorer and use the app mgr then press system app and select which app i want to uninstall and it says uninstall failed. Root explorer is on and system is mounted rw. If i use tibu to uninstall a system app it will say apk cant be located. Im on moar v8 with stock kernel but this same thing was also occurring on ktoonsez kernel as well. Supersu is set to allow and show notifications. How do fix this?

I usually use root explorer and go to root, system, app, and then delete whichever apk I choose. Have you tried that method?

That does work. It only started happening since 4.3 i think the emulated directories is what is causing the problem

I reverted to rooted knox free stock firmware N7100XXUEML6 on my Note 2. I then had to re-root the rom using Dr. Ketan's Multitool.
Now, i have installed every app, but when it comes to installing facebook or viber, the playstore gives me error -24. I looked up forums and found that the problem would be solved if i deleted the app folder in /data/data. The folders i am supposed to delete are com.facebook.katana and com.facebook.orca.
But whenever i use root explorer to delete the folder, it fails to delete the folder. I have also tried using Aroma file manager in Dr. Ketan's multitool and the phone hung. I then tried terminal emulator using the delete command but it gives me an IO file error.
What am I missing? How do i get through it? Because a facbook-free phone is pissing me off!

Alright, i solved it finally... for those searching to do so, go to /data/data/folder you want, and rename it to something like com.backup.1.
This thing will allow u to install the application! Toodles!
