Go here http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x2-hacks/27237-droid-x2-system-dump.html
Download the system dump zip.
Go into zip using root explorer( if I don't have it I recommend buying it its worth it)
go to system folder
go to app folder
Extract all DLNA apks and odex(s)
Go to extracted folder and select the files u just extracted
Move them to your system/app folder after u mount system as r/w using burton on top of root explorer screen.
Remount as r/o then reboot..it should be available now.
good luck
This should also work for other apks. I have been looking for a gingerbread dump if anyone could post that that would be great although I have had no problems installing any of these apks I've tried. Did the music camera toggle widgets etc and all worked no problems.
I will get you guys some of the stock apps and zip them up so they can be flashed.

Thanks..but do we have to flash or can I just extract and push inti systems for any I want? And do u know if its safe at all to remove any of the suggestions system apps or is that not a good idea..

Noobish concern, really. And I couldn't make heads or tails from similarly-named threads.
So what I did is I copied some system apps to a folder on my sd. Thereafter I deleted both apk and odex files from the system/app folder hoping that copying them back will be just as easy.
Earlier today I tried copying the MoviePlayer apk and odex back. While it did copy, no amount of rebooting or cache clearing made it return to my apps list. I tried installing it by just running the apk from the sd but it had a permission issue.
Help on this? I might have other system apps to restore later like the music and messaging apps.
Next time you back up an app, use titanium backup. As for restoring it, you may have to download root explorer. Launch it then navigate to /system/app/ then click mount as r/w then paste the .apk & .odex files.

Titanium may back up a system app, but when you remove it, you can't restore it. God knows, I tried. Instead of the smiley it's just a check and there's no option to restore. Unless I'm doing something wrong here.
I already tried copying the. apk/.odex back in r/w mode using root explorer. That's the first thing I did.
Luckily I did the same thing like you before. You may have to download and flash (SAPPS.zip) or (Custom ROM)- this one I did.

Also, forget stock movie & music player, just use Doubletwist. It's a music and video player with an awesome UI.

I'll try SAPPS. Actually, maybe it's time for me to try a custom rom. de/void has been catching my attention recently.
The only reason why I started with the stock movie player is because I know that's expendable... just wanted to know how hard/easy it would be to put stock apps back.
And yes, I'll give doubletwist a try. Thanks!

Hi guys,
I have recently make a wrong decision with my Gs2. I tried to use Titanium backup to change All Sharing and Social Hub as a User Application. And that result in these apps disappear from my phone. I tired to put the dlna.apk and social-hub.apk back to the "system/app" while nth new come back after a reboot. I think that's because i miss the odex file related to the apps. As I am using Offical Hong Kong Rom KG2, would somebody like to help me by uploading those files [dlna, social hub apk&odex]
Thanks

I got those APKs from the list you have posted.
And install them by using root explorer
My way to install is to move from sdcard to "/system/app"
I even changed the permission of the apks but still they don come back
thanks!

Try applications>manage applications>clear cache and maybe clear data for those apps if they are there.
Otherwise I'm out of ideas...

Good luck. Don't suppose you've got a full backup via CWM or you'd have reflashed it, right?

I don't think you can install system files with root explorer, you need to flash it through recovery. I was having the same problem and flashing worked for me.

You just push them to the /system/app/ folder and reboot - that's all a recovery zip would do.
Thx Guys!!!!
My finally method was reflash the official rom..... that nearlly kill me as i have to reorder the application icon which take me an hour to finish that....
I don know how to use the recovery method but hope this post would help others who face the same problems.
Btw is there any apps to backup the order of icon in Application page? Rearranging them again is damn horrible if u got tons of apps......

How might I get the ipk files for apps I download from the Market, to back them up on my computer? I know how to install an ipk with Astro File Manager and would like to retain current versions of my apps in case I update an app and do not like the update.
I am interested in all methods. Can I extract the ipks from my phone somehow? Download from websites (if there are good websites collecting ipks). I would consider using a pirate website (if I have to resort to that), as I am not a pirate if I get the apps in the Market first.
Thanks

Why not just copy the apks from your system/app folder (needs root) to your SD card and then copy them to your PC

I have not yet rooted, but plan to do so. However, I viewed this directory with Astro File Manager and do not see the apks for the items I got from the market. I see a bunch of standard apps that came with the phone.
Hey use "File Expert", it has an option of backing up apks...you can backup any app installed on your phone.... No root needed friend.... There are other file managers that do this, but I prefer this cuz this is free n ad free too.
Happy backing up...

I use Linda file manager its free and it makes backups of your apk files and then use WiFi file transfer pro its like $1.50 but it's so worth it. It can transfer files from your phone to cpu or vise versa. Check them both out they are great!

I found Astro File Manager will back up applications as .apk. But it's help says it will only do apps marked as public, not private and that most paid apps are private. Will File Expert and Linda backup private apps?

You can only backup protected apps if you are rooted. Those apps are in data/app-private, and only root file explorers or root backup apps can access them. That being said, not all paid apps are protected. I've paid for plenty of apps and downloaded them from the market and almost all of them install to data/app. In Astro when you go to backup your apps, it will tell you which ones are protected and you cannot back them up.

Thanks for the explanation. My phone is rooted. Which file explorers will look into /data/app-private for purposes of backing up? (Also, I guess I can always do a NANDROID backup and extract them from the .tar files on my computer, but I would like to be able to do any apps (protected or not) one at a time.)
As long as you're rooted any of the file managers listed above will do the job. Personally I use total commander which is not yet availble on market. Look through the market and find the one you like.

Hello, another thread about this glitch.
I am using ordroid 6.1 which has so minor glitches, like for instance the bluetooth will go on whenever i connect the usb cable to my computer! The bluetooth is off all the time but it will go on, does anyone knows about this?
I have been trying for the last 3 hours to install titanium backup to gain my backup apps, but i have no luck so far.
I read in this website that you need to go using apps called root explorer or ES Explorer to find a file titanium.opk and delete it. I have been using booth apps and i cant find tle damm file at all.
The phone is rooted, i checked using root check and the phone is rooted.
I dont know what going on, can someone help me out here?
Thanks a lot!

First you cqn use QtADB on your PC (or just mount your sd) to search for the file.If you cannot find it try installing Titanium Backup as a system app. You can do that by pushing it via adb or just copy/paste in /system/app

The actual file you're looking for is com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup.odex in /data/app
Just delete and you should be fine. You can use Solid Explorer or Root Explorer, bot can be obtained from the market.
i'm using root explorer and found a bunch of apk files in the /data/app folder. i never downloaded any of these, i guess android automatically made copies of the original apks? now is it ok to delete these? will it affect functionality of any apps?i have currently?

Nexus 5 KitKat v4.4.x ... I deleted all APKs from /data/app and apps started crashing. I forced a reboot and stuck in animated google boot logo for 20 mins with nothing. I did the hard shutdown and into bootloader to go into recovery. I had to use nexus root toolkit v1.8.0 to reset to factory
its cause some of the apps which you installed were installed in data/app.. in your case you deleted it.. so the apps which installed in that folder wont work.. try re-flashing the rom.. thats the solution.. and i know its been a three months you posted this problem.. and now i guess you cleared that already...
