Galaxy Note4

Hey bro, that's exactly what I did two days ago with the two jars..the only difference is that I did matched the names to the original ones(i deleted the originals then posted the mod jars..put the names as the originals ones were named)..and did also the rights..same way you did with the example above..then deleted..then reboot..except that never booted..

It's exactly the same flow as the apps I've been turned into system..

Ok my mistake, I thought you were asking for a tutorial. Oops sorrry LoL

It's not difficult at all..I've done this way too many times..already know the flow..

The only difference is that I delete the original before I paste the mod one..for name purposes..had worked for me so far..

I'll try what you do by having both at the same time while I change the rights of the mod one..

When you delete system apps how do you go about it?

And it was confusing at first but now its second nature.

Ok so I have to be honest..let me start by saying that after I bricked two days ago doing the jars thing..last night I decided to start fresh with a new back up(i felt that in my previews back up there something very messed up)..so I formatted, clean cashe and dalvik and format again..lol..not kidding..didn't use any back up..I deleted it..but I'm gonna do a new back up in a minute before any mayor change..like this one I'm about to do..
I've spent the whole day in the phone and it's settings..and this afternoon I tried the hot spot..and not just the settings aren't messed up..but it did connect..and for testing I turned it off and back on a few times..differently than before it did connect every times I turned it on..the only thing is that the internet connection that feeds from is slow as damn hell..and that's a problem..is the same thing as not having hot stop at all..

The rom I used this time is the odex..last time I used the deodex..as you recommended because was faster..I like it so far..at first was a little slow not just the boot but in general while navigate throughout the phone..specially inside the folder

What rom do you currently have? Is it the one in this link?

This is how I do about to delete..this precious app..that does exactly what you adviced me to do..deletes just the app itself leaving the folders intact..

Absolutely bro..just the same like while porting the apps

The same perissions as the ported apps?

I did notice you custom rom has Knox removed from the / of your rom. Im willing to bet the developer left the folder and its sub folders when temoving knox just as the developer of my rom did. Is that correct? I am curious to know if its device specific or as I believe a general rule that applies universally. Thanks

The beat mode zl..I think is the kernel that has the little glitch..before in the deodex I was using the beat mode but the one isn't zl..

I think I may have fount the issue . That is if it is something like the one I had a little while back. Remember when I ported my r57 custom kernel (boot.img) to another r61 custom kernel because of connectivity issues? It may also be the same with you device.

Lol..you are funny!, well, it took me a minute to find them..wasn't easy..I did though your suggestion..left intact the folders and sub folders..changed the rights of the apps to 3-2-3..then deleted them before the reboot..was I supposed to reboot first?..well now they are gone..you noticed them gone..funny they don't delete not even with the Move2sd..they dip inside the Android system..

Ok you changer the rights of yhe apps to 0323.
When you deleted system apps what did you change the folder permissions to?

Normally I do delete folders and everything, except this time while deleting knox I remembered your words of "it will mess things up"..so I didn't delete the folders this time

And it was that one that messed me up yesterday that I decided to start fresh with a new back up(very very very painful process..I'm still setting things up as they were..it takes very very long time..but it's getting in there AND EVEN BETTER)
