if you only need to install, reinstall or repair your some application, then you only have to extract it, copy it to sd card and install it as a normally .apk. but if it a system apk, you have to push it by using an explorer that can access system file, e.g Root Explorer.
I guess it's not a flashable zip. it's a firmware with .ftf extention inside the .rar.
so you can't install it by CWM, you have to flash it by flashtool. CMIIW

erm..i dnt know..but i couldn't find any .tft file inside..lots of folder..bt sure is,thr lots of .apk files too..
so..how??=.=

wait a minute, I'm downloading it to see the file.

those were system files from your phone that have been extracted from ICS rom...what you see in the system files is the same as in your phone...those system files is good backup in case you decided to remove/edit any system files (bloatware)....
those system files is not for normal install...you have to use Root Explorer to copy and paste it to your phone system files if you want get back the files you have remove before this....
remember you need to change permission for those files (rw-r-r)....

just like I posted above, you have to push it manually to /system/app .

[Q] How do you install the CWM without xrecovery?

Hi all devs and xda people, since i cannot post on the dev forum i have to ask here...
[Q]: How Do i Install the New CWM without having xrecovery installed?
I just cleaned my phone by flashing it with SEUS, wich i normally do before i'm about to install a new rom, i just rooted my phone and installed the newest version of Root Explorer from market. Also have downloaded the CWM zip provided from the first post by D4rKn3sSyS at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1106146
However, that zip contains two folders, not any single files that you just copied over to /system/bin like you did with xrecovery. so what am i suppsoed to do? wich files, where and what permission should they have?
CWM can be installed only manually using Root Explorer.
Extract files from bin folder in the zip and copy to respective folder with correct permissions (755).
It is missing one file (bin/charge) that can be found on xrecovery.zip file.
Another way is to install xRecovery Mini Pro .apk Unified Installer and after that use cwr_xrecinstall!

Could you tell me exactly what file that is missing? the xRecovery-minipro-0.1.1beta contains three files: busybox, chargemon and xrecovery.tar
I could assume that its the busyboxfile that is missing, but i really dont want to chance and take a risk.

[Q] How to install systems apps back?

I have Criskelo Rom V32 a i want to install back any of origo systems apps
http://samsunggalaxysforums.com/showthread.php/4811-Safe-to-remove-applications-list?
How can I so that? Thanks
1. Use PC to unzip your ROM.
2. Extract the apps you want from system/app folder
3. Copy to sdcard
3. Use a root file explorer to copy or move to system/app directory on phone (mount r/w before paste)
4. Reboot into CWM recovery
5. Wipe cache and advanced/dalvik
6. Reboot
Or,
Just reflash ROM and no wipe. This will lose any themes and mods though.

It does not function, I choose the widgets and copy with root explorer to system/app, change permission as others apps has, restart phone but widgets does not apears in widgets....:-(. What am I doing wrong please?
You could modify the custom rom and add the apps you want then install the custom rom .
Open zip file with win rar System/apps add what you want .

Do you mean unzip rom in pc, insert apps and then again put to the phone?

Download custom rom to PC
Open rom with winrar but do not unzip just open .
Go to system double click to open
Go to Apps double click to open
Go to ADD and add each apk file .
Or even delete unwanted via delete button.
Close winrar copy zip to sd card and flash .
Above can be carried out with zip on sd card and mass storage usb connection also .

TWRP not showing zip files (FIX)

If you have TWRP installed, you may not be able to see your zip folder. Such as a ROM or Gapps. Well I was recently having the same issue. There really isn't a "fix" to it. Its more like solving a puzzle. What happens is there is a duplicate folder somewhere. So to locate a zip file in TWRP simply download your ROM or whatever it is you want. And while you're waiting download a file explorer. The file explorer doesn't matter as long as you can copy and paste/ move files. So after everything is download open up your desired file explorer. And navigate to your download. Copy and go back to the root of your SD. And open up the folder titled "0" and paste your zip files in there. Either the root of the "0" folder or into the download. And now your zip file will show up in TWRP.

why i cant copy apk file from system folder in a rom to another rom?

I'm using V7 MIUI rom, I downloaded V8 rom from miui.com (both of them are Chinese's rom). I find that I can copy apk files in "Data" folder and install it normally. But apk files in "System"--->"Data" and "Priv-Data" cant do like that. I cant install them like files in "Data" folder does, and I notice that those file have a folder in same directory, inside that folder have a ".odex" file.
So, i wonder that those file must be install in special ways? And How can I install them?
Thank you for my poor english.:good:
Those system apk files usualy need to be flashed. You could copy and paste them in in a ROM.ZIP you are currently using and install them via a recovery (TWRP or CWM).
How it is actually done I am not realy sure (no experience) but in theory it should work this way.

Can't turn WiFi on after flashing.

Hey,
Today I used a ROM to flash my mobile (Samsung J5 2016 edition, model: J510FN) and I just used the perfect ROM, and it fits perfectly. But when I try to turn on WiFi it goes back swipe to off automatically when I swipe it to on.
I used this rom (version v1.1 because v2 and v3 were gone and bad): https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/development/rom-light-stock-rom-v1-t3467865
Someone knows what to do? I'm a beginner, so please explain it good. I have everything btw like Odin, TWRP, latest SuperSU, etc.
Please help.
Thanks
From your stock rom Copy the folder named Permissions from /system/etc and paste it at the same location in your new downloaded rom.
DONOT delete the existing folder , just replace the files.
Good Luck Cheers

You mean an img file , right?
If you have twrp or cwm backup of your stock rom , you can extract it from that file(ext4.system.tar.a) , if you dont have a twrp/cwm backup , you can try to flash stock rom from that img file and then copy necessary files into sdcard and then re flash your new rom and paste the existing files.
Good luck/

No, its an md5 file. Inside the md5 file (when I open it with winrar) it only shows hidedcache files etc and also boot.img
I need to have go to the patch (system/etc/permissions

Then you might need to flash your stock rom first and then copy the necessary files.
I have an Mediatek device , steps to troubleshoot are same , but I have a zip of my stock rom created to access stock files when ever i need them.
I would advise you to do the same for future troubleshooting..
Good Luck mate

And what are the nessecary files? Only the permissions folder or more?

Permission folder worked for me , but i would insist you to copy the entire /system partition as backup once you have flashed the stock rom just in case.
If permission folder doesnt work , then try replacing files starting with wlan from /system/lib/modules from stock to port
Do only when permissions folder doesnt work.
