Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028 and use update.zip method to get root. Method A is if you plan to stay on that ROM and method B will give you clockwork recovery, allowing you to flash a custom ROM that is pre-rooted.

Hi, I think going back to stock and pushing the update zip into internal SD will solve the issue

When I flash the files with Odin it fails.

If you can backup your internal SD then wipe it then put nothing on it. Redownload the update.zip again (the name for the file should just be update. Your phone knows its a zip file that's where the .zip comes from) and then try it. Don't download the .zip from your phone do it o. Your computer then drag to your phones I sternal SD card

You need to mount the folder with write permissions. Click on the RW button at the top

Sorry cannot help you with that... But there must be some other way to install such apps. Maybe some files are missing... Must read up on it....

Thanks man. This might sound like a weird question but in a noob but can I delete the apk after I install it??
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
I just tried to install and it didn't install. I can't figure out why?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
Did it not install because you have don't have "unknown sources" checked under settings, more, security?
And yeah, you can't delete the apk. Just keep it... Lol
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda premium
No I did that all. When I use the installer it goes to install then it just tells me it didn't install
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
Might not be signed. Here's an XDA link that walks you through that process.
Probably needs to be pushed to system/app and then set permissions.
Dont know what that means or even how to do that?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
I thought S Health wouldn't work on any ROM that doesn't have TouchWiz. Are you using a touchwiz based rom?
Yes im using hyperrom. I got it to install but i dont rrally want to keep the apk. I dont want to use up memory

I need it. Actually try to figure out why the s health app always crashed on me fresh out the box and rooted. Neither scenario worked for me. Is this more updated than the 1.5.4 version?
Rooted S4
Not sure

Here is my db link for the .apk
All I did was copy to SD card and uploaded to db. It didn't work for op because it may not be signed, but that goes beyond my wanting to learn. Lol
So here it is http://db.tt/Iu4CMiFR if ya wanna tinker with it.
Good luck

I haven't used it at all. I just opened it and it didn't seem too interesting. Maybe I'm just not too much of a health nut to dig into it, but thus far, it didn't really keep my attention. Could be my ADD too I guess or maybe its because Hey look a squirrel!!!...

JellyButterDMF2v5.0 MMS not working! Help!

I have also been using the new V5 Jelly Butter 8/8 update and for me when I try to send an MMS it always says, "failed invalid destination address."
I have tried wiping cache and d.cache and rebooting as well as toggling the data on and off as well as completely clean wiping and reflashing all over again and still the same issue.
Anyone with helpful thoughts?

Check your apns.

Apns?? That term I'm not familiar with. Not a full noob but guess you could say partial noob lol.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
Ok I looked up about it the "apns" when I go to that setting its a black screen...I hit the menu key I can either; A: create new or B: set to default
Tried the set to default now its acting totally screwy.

OK so double checking as to not screw it up root uninstall the current MMS apk file and then basically "cut n paste" the apk from v3

Yes. Keep in mind I've only heard of success from one person.
But I don't see why it wouldn't work. Don't forget to reboot after pasting in the the new mms
