Hi, I've been following peoples posts on how to convert apps to system apps. I'm trying to get tasker to work with enabling gps, and people have mentioned converting to a system app would do the trick. I bought root explorer copied net.dinglisch.android.taskerm-2.apk from /data/apk enabled rw access on system/app pasted but nothing is copied over? I have tried numerous times and it doesn't copy anything over even though it briefly shows the copy progress bar. Any thoughts?
Have you tried doing it using ADB? When I had to install Market to System, it only worked via ADB. You have to mount System as rw. I assume you know how to do that and that is what you mean in your 3rd step? Also, it's worth double checking, if you did remount System, that it *was* System and not a different device. It varies per phone, and if you followed someone else's instructions it could have been the wrong one.
just chiming onto the end, although root explorer is an invaluable purchase if s-off, titanium quite neatly has a convert to system app function.
ah damit my bad, my phone is currently s-on, which makes sense as root explorer or titanium pro migration didn't work. I'm going to follow this guide now and get s-off.
