Install App To System?

Ok so i sort of made my own rom for myself to use i removed all stock launchers etc etc, i wanted to use launcher 7 as default laucher, not the se one. but when i full wipe my phone it deletes it as its a downloaded app which then leaves my phone without a launcher, so how do i build it into the system like adw is in the cm roms? so it dosnt wipe when i clear all data on my phone. Thanks in advance.
Edit: I would release this rom to public but its only based on 2.1.1.a.0.6 and most people prefer to use Floyo, Hackdroid etcetc. It dosnt have any extra features its just how i like it with all the crap removed lol, Different framework. Its just the launcher bit whats doing me lol.

install the application, then move it from /data/app to /system/app using root explorer...
restart your phone, it should works..

Ok thanks ill try that as soon as I get back from dentist

Yes it does what I wanted it to do. Use launcher 7 as default launcher after full factory reset.

Titanium won't work on my play either.
I purchased pro for my hero, and i can install, but the application is just not available in the app draw.
My backup root installs and works fine but i just can't find how to remove the bloatware with it.
I do have root access so what can i use to get rid of what's app, postcard etc ??

Did you also download the free version? Pro download is only the registration key! You need to install both.

Is there anything out there with the ability to backup that doesn't require rotting?

my backup pro, it's what i use tbh i dont always root

No because in order to do a full backup you need R/W Access to the /system and /Data folders

See above you don't have to have root to read only to write.
most of the apps you will back up won't need write access check it out on the market or try it yourself

AFAIK You need root to read from /system and /data/data/ but maybe im wrong. i know for a fact that you need root to even read /system. go check with a file explorer that dosent need root

your right with what your say but for backup you won't need access you don't need to back up system apps anyway.

You need to flash a custom rom with cwm or you can do a backup with titanium.

Not whole rom but all system settings, contacts, messages and application. For backup whole rom you need cwm but for me it doesn't work and I tried many times that's why I prefer titanium.

I suppose you are rooted. Then download titanium backup from market. And backup all the apps. Or if you want to backup your whole /system partition, then check out rudolf' s video of dumping system here. .

Super SU has a option to unroot right in the app
BLACKED OUT LTE N4

yes it does but in pac a different superuser app is installed to the settings and there is no way to get that one out :/

I have always just flashed the SuperSu zip in recovery without problems

Why not just use a file explorer with root rights to uninstall system apps by going to
/system/app and deleting it?
Odds are you'll have a file explorer already.. don't see the point in an entire separate app just for that purpose.

You can't do that when it is preinstalled into the framework of the settings of a rom
