Hey guys,
I have deleted by mistake the calendarprovider.apk and now I can't sync my google calendar on the phone. Can someone provide me with the apk so i can install it?
Also I have some questions because i tried to install a calendarproviderbin.apk and the installation didin't work:
1. Do the apk file answers to the Android version (4.1.2 in my case) or needs to match the phone (xperia m C1904)?
2. I still have the calendarprovider.odex in the folder, do i need to delete it to pass down the apk instalation? Or its okay there?
3. Some threads talk about opening the apk in the pc and deleting the user id or something. if this is necessary, would you please guide me through it?
---edit> build number 15.1.C.2.8
Thanks!
Here you go, here are both files from the odexed ROM.
1) Copy the files to your phone memory (either internal or SD)
2) Make sure the names of the files don't have [1] in them, if they do then delete the [1]
3) Move the files from your memory to /system/app
4) Set the permissions to 0644 (rw-r--r--)
5) Reboot

I like the Motorola Music Player, its very simple and clean. I tried to install the apk, rename the .apk to .zip and install via recovery, and to copy the apk (there's a post from fritolay saying to do that) to /system/app, without success. Any ideas how to install this app?
Put the APK on to the Sd card.
Enable unknown sources in setting / applications
Use a file manager to locate the apk and run it.
it will install to the phone an then it should work.
This apk doesn't install via file manager, i have tried this before. I have seen in another post that needs to be copied to /system/app, but i haven't figured what to do next.
SOLVED! Copied the apk to /system/app and set the permission user read/write group and other read.
Hi,
I need to install HTC's Locations app on any custom ROM (ie: MyOneV or CM9/CM10)
So any1 can help me with this ?
(i tried it though, by moving these files (from MyOneV5.0FX Removed apks) htclocation.apk,locationpicker.apk,locatiooninstaller.apk in System/app folder bt it didn't worked)
When you move those files to system app manually, you need to put right permission rw-r--r-- then reboot.
Or the simplest way is, open the Removed_Apks_RC5.x.zip with 7-zip (not extract), delete all apks that you don't need and leave those location files in zip.
Then flash the zip in recovery.
And these files will not work on a CM rom.

:good:
Thankz
I tried that too, by removing all apks from zip keeping the said three files & flash it in recovery, still it doesn't appeared in apps!
Though i'll try again may b missed something or some file..
I just tried it, it works.
Your filename looks different, attached here the files from the Removed_Apks_RC5.x.zip, I named it to location.zip. Flash in recovery.
It Worked: Thanx
Has someone already tested this Mod on the Xperia ZL?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2202383
Yes it works !!!!!
Yes I installed it, tested it and can confirm it works on the Sony Xperia ZL.
First I rooted the phone using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2186368
Then I download the files to computer then to my SD Card/external storage on smartphone.
Back up all necessary file from system/app such systemui.apk, systemui.odex, taskswitcher.apk, settings.apk and settings.odex files to my sd card/external storage in case it went wrong.
Deleted the systemui.odex and settings.odex files.
Copy on files at a time for example the systemui.apk file to the system folder then changed the permission to rw-r--r-- then delete and move the the systemui.apk file to the system/app folder. I did the same for teh other files as well.
Finally reboot the smartphone and voila it should work.

Thank you for your explanations, because I also have the problem.
I have some questions:
1. I did not use this method to root, which for me is more complicated. Is that my problem may be here?
2. What recovery are you using?
3. can you detail me this because I do not understand:
"Copy on files at a time for example the systemui.apk file to the system folder then changed the permission to rw-r--r-- then delete and move the the systemui.apk file to the system/app folder. I did the same for teh other files as well.
In the topic, asked to remove only two files."
Thank you to you for your help
Compare to other method to rooting I looked this is by far the easiest to root without unlocking the bootloader as well. It only takes a minutes or two.
Sorry I have not used any recovery as of yet apart from android software such as backup pro or backup and restore.
When you downloaded the files from here in Zip or WinRAR format I used I extract the three files systemui.apk, taskswitcher.apk and settings.apk to your computer/laptop then connect up your Xperia ZL to the computer/laptop then copy or move these files to your Xperia ZL on your sd card.
You need to download something like android app like file manager and make sure the settings on file manager is set to root.
Now I used the file manager copy the systemui.apk to the system folder then I press on systemui.apk to press option for permission to change the permission with the with the first column all boxes ticked for read and second column only the top for owner is ticked for write, all other boxes including the third column for execute is left unticked.
Now I move the systemui.apk file to the system/app folder replacing the current systemui.apk. I used the same method for settings.apk and taskswitcher.apk files. Once you done that reboot your smartphone.

Thanks.
Yes, I do that and it's ok.
Look at : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40569989&postcount=443
You need to be rooted and i recommend use root explorer
1) First guys make sure you have the apk or else pull it from /Root/Data/App
2) Copy that apk to your SD card and install it as a normal user app (Like a usual APK)
3) Go to /Root/Data/Data
4) Find the app then go to it and open the folder (eg. com.android.camera - Camera)
5) Go to file called "lib" in the folder (com.android.camera)
6) You may find one or multiple files in it. (eg. abcd.so ) copy it or them to your SD card
7) Uninstall the app and reboot the device
8) Take the apk from SD card and copy the apk to /Root/System
9) Select the file and change the permissions of the apk under select permissions
10) Tick all the boxes under read and only the first one under write and click ok
11) It should look like rw-r--r--
12) Then cut the Apk and pate it to /Root/System/app
13) Copy the the Lib named like. (Eg - abcd.so) to /Root/System and change the permission like you did with earlier apk but cut (Eg. abcd.so) it and paste it to /Root/System/lib
And reboot and enjoy
Hit Thank If It Helped You
I don't unstand why you can install a system apps on step 2
mine shows App not installed. The package appears to be corrupt. and some time conflict
Hi everyone
This is my first thread, so I decide to make it useful to everyone
Let's GO !
What You Want :
ES File Explorer File Manager (OR any file explorer supports zip extracting)
Rooted Phone
Nandroid Backup (You don't know how important it is)
1- enable root explorer and set permission to r/w (read & write)
2- extract the flashable zip to your memory
3- go to the existing folder
4- copy everything except META-INF folder to the root of your phone
5- "Must" show replace confirmation select confirm
6- After the copy operation is finished, reboot your device
7- Done, Congratulations
PLEAS NOTE THAT I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE ABOUT YOUR DEVICE IF YOU BREAK IT RESTORE THE NANDROID BACKUP
note if its a new file you need to set permissions of the file
most files in app are rw-w-w however some may vary depending on what file it is
at the end of the day if you have a flashable zip its much better to flash certain things than push to system so if the flashable zip has already been made for you than you might as well use it
One doubt please

yes just push to system and set permissions - normally rw-r-r
although I dont know why you would want to do this as its always better to flash the file and since you have a flashable zip why not just flash it
Just a confuse

with root browser you can set permissions of any file - please search how
it depends what framework files you are replacing - you cant just replace with any old file from a different rom - it wont work
if its been designed for your rom or you are modding your own files then thats fine
and a flashable zip takes two secs - you dont need a pc - and iv posted a template loads of times
here is it again - just add any files you want to flash to framework in the framework folder
if you want files to go to the app folder just create a folder in system in the zip called app and put files there
same for any other folder in system
