[Q] How to install Music.apk to Walter's Defy+

Hey guys I don't know how to make Music.apk run after installing it on Walter's Defy+ ROM...
I searched the forum and did what ppl say: put Music.apk to system/app and change permissions to rw-r--r-- reboot the phone.
After that, depending of Music.apk, I have immediate FC (with CM7 Music.apk)or I can enter the app and get FC after selecting music track to play (with MS2Ginger 1.1 Music.apk)
I really don't like BlurMusic.apk so I would like to change it somehow
Please help...
ps. After removing every Music app from phone I managed to install Leaked Google Music app 4.0.1: Link
But that way it's not system app but User's...And I don't like this Music app that much (widget is so ugly and stupid)

try PlayerPro
It's my favorite music player app and you can install light blue skin that nicely goes with 2.3.4 blur firmware.

I think the permissions should be rwxr--r--. Worked for me.

copy music.apk in system/app via root explorer(before copying press 'mount r/w' icon at the top, it will than change to r/o). long press the file you just copied. from the menu choose permissions and from there enable read/wright/execute in user category. then reboot

Nope, it's not gonna happen
So, Im using ES file explorer, but with root rights and mounted File system...I did change permissions to rwx r-- r--, and rebooted, and FC
Tried with cm7 Music.apk, with miui Music.apk, with MS2Ginger 1.1 Music.apk...
I don know what else should I try...Maybe reflash the whole thing and start from the beggining?
Oh yeah, I uninsttaled blur Music.apk...Maybe that is why nothing is workin...But that is a silly thought
............
Or just install PlayerPro

Haven't tried it yet but maybe it requires TW framework? Idk. I'm on AOKP right now, anyone else try this?
Edit: Actually it doesn't look like it needs TW framework since people are getting to work on their Galaxy Nexus's

Hey.....when it is stable ...that's going to be sick bro........it has crazy potential........
UNTOUCHABLE EPIC CM9 BETA 3

running cm9 beta 3 nyan also and it works until i reboot. after reboot get fc. reinstall and works again.

Now.....after reinstall..should I reboot or no..?....I mean I will have to do a reboot eventually...
UNTOUCHABLE EPIC CM9 BETA 3

i would try it without a reboot at all to see if it does work for you. i did not reboot after installing.

I just installed and no reboot no move and it appears to work fine. I would love if eventually the microphone on the screen in cm9 in the search bar could be modified to run svoice instead of googles voice search

It works fine for me on both cm9 builds and additional kernals

Folks, just download the file from here and extract the files from the rar. Push the voicetalk.apk to /system/apps and change the permissions, (or use root explorer) then open the APK file in winrar or winzip, go to the lib folder, then the armeabi folder and extract the libvoxtts.so from that folder. Put the libvoxtts.so file in /system/lib and change the permissions appropriately. Reboot and it will show in the app drawer under S Voice.
No problems on reboot at all. In fact... here are the S voice APK and the lib file already extracted for you, just open in winrar and put the apk in /system/apps/ and the .so file in /system/lib/, change the permissions on both files to rw-r--r-- and then reboot and you will be good to go.

Such a cool app. Works good. A lot of thing are missing and don't work. There are S voice setting we don't have because we are only installing the S voice app and there's more to it. But I will say this, if you are wanting a SGSIII before you try this. This is going to straight piss you off and make it worst. Sprint had better be bring us the full version of this phone.

[Q] Pushing apk from system dump into note?

Hi, anyone knows how to push apk app taken out from system into our note 2?
I found the lost screen recorder apk in one of the system dump.zip after extracting it, I tried moving it into system/app and changing permission and installing is still not successful!
Am I doing it wrong? How then will be the right way to do it? please advise? Thx in advance... Really love to have screen recorder function as advertised by samsung

Normally you would push to /system/app make sure permissions were correct and then reboot, you do not need to 'install' it.
but you might need an ODEX file as well as the APK

Reboot
Hi, ok so just place the apk plus it's odex files in system/app , change permission and reboot it will be install correctly? :laugh:

Hi, I did just as you mentioned.. Reboot still screen recorder remains not install tried to install it then ... No luck still...

its highly likely that there are other files that the apk needs in order to work, can you upload the files you have?

Privacy Guard Notifications

I am on CM11 nightlies for SGS4 mini. Can you disable Privacy Guard notifications as the icon/notification is very annoying and persistent. It only goes if phone is rebooted. Will be back again if app with revoked permissions is launched again. Thanks.

Hi not sure if you solved this, here is solution that worked for me:
1. Copy framework-res.apk from system/framework folder (keep a backup for any case).
2. Open apk with Zarchiver (pick option View), and look for icon stat_notify_privacy_guard.png.
3. Delete icon, and let Zarchiver to save the file.
4. Overwrite the original framework-res file, and correct permissions (I use Aroma Explorer in revovery for all sensitive file ops).
Cheers

Thanks mate, had to install the modded framework-res.apk by unzipping the original rom and re flashing but worked all the same thanks a bunch for taking the time to write that it would have drove me insane haha.

[APP Request] Stock S6 video player

Hi there,
I accidentally deleted the video stock app from my phone after rooting and did not have a back up of it. Now when i play recorded videos from the gallery, I don't have a player to play it!
Can anyone please give me a link to the stock APK?
Thank you! Much appreciated!
-H

Here you go..

Hi thank you. I tried to install it, with a root Explorer too... Thing is after doing so it doesn't work probably because I didn't do it correctly.
Could someone tell me how to install it correctly?
Been a year since I've been into android hacking stuff ^. ^

Extract the folder and place into your /system/priv-app folder and set the correct permissions and reboot. You can check the right permissions by looking at the permissions of other folders and files in /system/priv-app directory.

Hi Alex, thanks for getting back to me.
I did what you said but it still did not work for me.
when I try to open the video app which appears after reboot. The app automatically closes and says 'unfortunately, video has stopped working'
I'm rooted. Using es Explorer
Any other solutions?
Thanks a lot!

I've just flashed a stock rom and reset my phone,
Thanks for the help anyways, all!

Is the arm64 folder supposed to be placed somewhere different or in the priv-app folder with the apk?
Because I put everything where it was supposed to be and set the permissions correctly for the folder and apk and still when I restart "unfortunately video has stopped working
