Root Stock Apps

1. Download the android sdk.
2. Assuming you're using windows, extract the zip somewhere.
3. Start > run > type "cmd" no quotes, hit enter.
4. In cmd change directory to the tools folder of the android sdk.
Example my android sdk folder is on the root of my c drive, so in cmd I'd type "cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools" no quotes and hit enter.
5. Reboot your phone into recovery mode and plug the usb to your computer.

Then follow type out the commands you posted earlier and that should work.
adb shell mount /sdcard
adb shell mount /system
adb shell
cp /sdcard/fresh-removed-apks/WHATEVERAPP.apk /system/app

Someone correct me if i'm wrong.
