you need to has root access for this and you should replace it with your system apps under root: system/app or priv-app folder

So I just need to download apk, put it to system/app folder and rename apk to match the original apk file? That's it?

Download apk
Put in system/priv-app
Set permissions (rw-r-r)
Use titanium backup and backup and freeze old apk.
Reboot
Thats it

I did as you wrote. Every step.
But new app didn't appear in the app drawing.

use lucky patcher to install as system app

Did you set correct permissions for folders also? Aswell as apk
Folders should be set like my screen shot

Thanks! It worked. I messed up the permissions

And now I will try to update all Samsung apps. Email app is my priority.

Email app working well. But I had no luck with others (gallery, video editors etc.).
Anyway.. Refreshed look of the email app is more than enough

[2.2 Leak] Custom Folders in Gallery?

Is there a way to choose custom folders in Sense Gallery or Android stock Gallery or Photos (Android 2.1) instead of having it show ALL the photos and videos?
I have an archive folder which has thousands of pictures and I don't want it showing up every time because it takes a while to load.
Or is there an apk that'll do this?
+1 I'm not a fan of this either... You can hide certain ones if you press menu but nothing specific.
Can't believe some of the brainiacs over here haven't figured this out yet..
create a ".nomedia" file in the folder

It's been discussed here before too
Gallery Enabler should do the trick. I haven't tried it on 2.2 yet but it works great on 2.1.

Gallery Enabler does the .nomedia trick, only from your phone so you can enable/disable folders whenever you like.

I know about the .foldername trick.. I don't like it though because a file or folder with . (period) in the beginning will not show up on my mac of pc either.. (on PC I could say view hidden files.. which again, I don't like..on Mac I'd have to install Houdini or something)..
Also It's a hassle when I WANT it to show.. in which case I'd have to rename the folder. I'd rather using a normal file name and not have it show

pulled messaging app from honeycomb preview

can anyone make this work for android 2.3
http://www.mediafire.com/?lvlfcvcrsmdrxuz
how did you pull it from the SDK?
i installed the emulator and then ran adb pull /system/app
and that pulled everything from the system app folder
Hmm... I tried to run it with apktool,
but it does not decompile the whole thing.
it seems like apk files for honeycomb is structured differently.

System apps cannot be replaced by installing the apk.
A) Make a flashable zip, ain't so hard.
B) Push via ADB to /system/app/
C) Try downloading root uninstaller to uninstall market and then installing the APK

You dont need that framework-res.apk!

Snapchat temporary blocked on S8 Blocked?

Hi,
I've just got my new s8, but I despise the android emojis, I've rooted my S8 and how got the IOS emojis now, However i can't login to snapchat.
Anyways i can get around this? I've used the magisk root.
Thanks in advanced.
AFAIK you can't use snapchat when you're rooted
checkbox magisk hide in magisk setting - working for me (no problem with login and use snapchat)
