Hello, can anyone extract this widget and send it to me by email? I removed it accidentally but I don't wanna re flash whole system and loose all my settings because of that. I suppose it should be apk and odex files. They can be found in one system directory. Please pm me for email. Thanks

Why don't you open the flashable zip of your rom? Then you can extract it yourself
How to do that? What ROM?

Download a 2.3.6 rom flashable zip file. Open it and go to system/app extract the file and copy it to your phone. Install it and your done.
If you want to install a system app then you need to be rooted. So i thought you already had a flashable zip file.
I got my firmware downloaded only. It is md5.tar file. Is this what you are talking about or should I download something else?

I didn't install anything, just copied apk file from SD card into system/app directory. Odex file can't be replaced. No matter what error, just tell me if I have to run 7ZIP program, pack both files and then flash via CWM?

You flashed a zip file?
Is the apk file still in system/app? If not just place it there and wipe the caches. Without flashing a file.
BTW I don't know exactly how I make a good flashable zip file. Search and it shouldn't be hard to find and make.

The thing is it is not possible to just copy system files into proper directory because it returns error that it can't be replaced.

I'm not allowed to delete system files as they are in use and any operation is restricted, even while rooted!
Whatever, I flashed my firmware from scratch and f**k it still won't work because I run Go Launcher Ex which is not compatible with stock widget.

Make sure you see "System" and "META-INF" when you open the zip(these should NOT be in sub folder)
Make sure the zip is correct, and is indeed for your firmware
open the zip with winzip and check there should not be a sub folder
if you find one then try to extract it using any archive tool like winrar
Make sure you see "System" and "META-INF" when you open the zip(these should NOT be in sub folder)
Does flashing APBOOT file of appropriate firmware using Odin work?
And,comes another guide from me.... I was actually extracting a stock firmware and this came into my mind
Ok,I made this guide since the process of extracting firmware is a bit confusing sometimes.So,lets start with it
What you would need:
1.7zip or any other zip utility
2.Stock Firmware
3.MagicISO
4.Nothing else
Tutorial:
1.Start off by downloading a stock firmware,for this guide,we assume its DDKQ8
2.You will get 2 files, S5830DDKQ8_<bla bla>.tar.md5 and SS_DL.dll
3.Ignore the second file,we only need the first file which has an extension of .md5
4.Now its not possible to extract the file with the current extension.
5.So,rename the file S5830DDKQ8_<bla bla>.tar.md5 to S5830DDKQ8_<bla bla>.tar
6.Now,the file is extractable,so extract it.
7.You will get approx. 9 files: arm11 boot,amss,csc.rfs and various others.
8.Delete all the files except boot.img and system.rfs.These are the only files we need.
9.Now,using MagicISO,open up system.rfs and extract it.
10.Make a new folder named Rom_working
11.Now,move the boot.img there
12.Make a folder called system
13.Move all contents of system.rfs to this this folder.
14.Now all you need is a META-INF folder to complete the rom.(Unless you messed up)
Thats it! Pretty easy huh,this is something really basic,but a few people get confused on extracting it anyway.Its just meant to be a basic guides for those people.If you want to get more info on making a rom,refer this guide which i wrote a few months ago.Hope this helped you guys out.
NOTE: I am not responsible if you mess up your phone or w/e happens to it.Btw,<bla bla> stands for the rest of the filename
thanks for that,, i was woundering how it was done,, i ended up using a nandroid backup with kitchen to make my own lol
How can I root the rom??

Where do we get a META-INF folder?
Do we use CWM recovery to restore with the new folder?

You can get a META-INF folder by creating one yourself

Make one yourself,refer other stock roms for the path,then get the update binaries and script from BlackHawk (if stock ONLY).
okay, this is to flash via CWM is not it? how to change the kernel?

For Odin flash,refer freeyourandroid.com.
For CWM flash,take updater script and binary from Blackhawk and put it in your rom

Hello guys. In some custom roms My Files option removed. If anyone want to get back this stock My Files then how I can get back, even with ported My File with cwm or in other way....?
I suppose you would be able to extract it yourself by installing a stock ROM and then copying the APK from /system/app (using some root capable file manager).
At least if nobody else has an easier solution for you.
Good luck!

so the rom doesnt show up in cwm?
make sure the extension is .zip
also check if its inside some folder and not directly in root directory of sdcard
On the computer open up the .tar file and see if the .zip file of the rom is in there the TAR extension is a compressed file which has other files in it

what ROM are you on?
you can't flash an app, you need to move the apk to the system folder with root explorer.
when i said re-flash i meant re-flash the whole ROM.
google it, i'm sure you are not the first one.
