[Q] Quickpic as default gallery. - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just hate the default GB & CM7 gallery app as they take a lot of time to show up my pictures ( there are about 600 pictures on my sd ). That's why I decided to replace the default GB gallery app by quickpic. I renamed it to gallery3D, moved it to \system\app by replacing the original gallery & set permissions & rebooted. But quickpic on opening suddenly closes all by itself. Tried a fix permissions via recovery with no success. My question is, how do I get quickpic working ( as a system app & as an alternative to the original gallery ) ? What's causing it to close all by itself ? Is there any odex file of the gallery that causes this ?

you have forgoten the lib fils
open the quickpic.apk withe winrar go to lib----->armeabi---->copie all file to system/lib of your rom its all your apps is completly integrated in your rom

Instal quickpic apk separately and then from titanium backup convert it into system app n then delete the previous gallery app. pls hit thnx if helpd.

Yep, i use it for almost 2 years ... it's the best gallery app for me.

Some apps like camera and quickpic use lib files to function. The lib files have a set of instructions that are common to the corresponding app. So having a lib file makes it easy so you dont have to re write them again and again.

I already knew that. But I donno why I wasn't reminded of it. May be because I haven't used this method for a long time. Anyways, thanks to all for reminding

The other method works & is easy. Move app to system/app & set permissions. Then copy the lib file to system/lib & set permissions. Reboot & done !

Sure! I think is the best gallery app

Why does it have to be a system app? Just install Quickpic and use TB to uninstall default gallery. That's it. Even if you don't uninstall default gallery, the OS will ask you which app to use by default.

Samsung gallery app problem. How to make Quick Pic app as the default instead
Dear All, Samsung users.
I have been having serious problems with Samsung S4 gallery App. The App just does not work anymore, as it keeps on freezing etc. I have resetted my phone several times and did it hard reset and the same problem occurs.
After several hours of research, I was told to use Quckpic app, which as a standalone is brilliant, but can anyone please give me a step-by step guide to make QuickPic as the default app to work with my S4 camera app, and also how do you delete the standard gallery App from the S4.
Kind regards

[Q] How to install an apk into system/app?

I am using rooted JVU firmware and would like to install ICS keyboard to my system/app.
I used Root Explorer to copy the apk file into the directory and did a reboot, and the keyboard appeared on my locale and text menu.
However, when I try to select the keyboard, it always return a force close.
Can anybody teach me on how to solve this issue?

When you push an ask to system/app am I write in saying it does not deleted in factory reset..??
What about pushing to system system/media..??
When pushing an apk to system folder,u need root and there is 2 easy ways,either use a root explorer and just push it to the system/app folder or use titanium backup to revert to system app.factory reset(full wipe) doesn't wipe system apk,but everthing else is wiped..
U can also push apk to system via ADB.but a little bit of knowledge is needed

Uninstall both apps from your device and just push them to system/app without installing them. Then reboot your phone.
My explorer gives me an error that it doesn't allow me to move them to system/app, any idea?

I can't get this to work..I push both apks to system/app, wipe dalvik cache and reboot my phone..but once it's on I can't find the apps anywhere... If I check the folder with root explorer both apks are indeed in there..they just don't show up
The only way I got it to work was by installing both apps.. which was not a good idea as stated here
P.S.: I'm on Owain's 74 ROM

Maybe you have to fix the permissions of both apps via root explorer.
There has to be: rw-r--r--
hmmm..and how do I do that exactly?
Long press on the app -> permissions
You have to stick read read (-) in the first row
write (-) (-) in the second row
and nothing in the third
Than there has to be rw-r--r-- on the right corner of the app

You only get fc if you install the apps instead of pushing them to to system/app
Use the install guide on my first post and everything should work

Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
-Download DSP manager, is the only forum look.
-Upload it to system / app using root explorer
-Give the uperwnienia: rw-r-r
-Reboot and you have installed DSP manager.
But let me tell you that if you have installed "music fx" you do not need DSP manager ...

you need to put the .apk in system/app mounting system (using root explorer e.g.) and setting the correct permissions in both apps and then reboot your device

anybody?
Try deodexing the whole rom from which the keyboard came from and then copy the apk

The uninstalling is a known CM 10.1 bug. To prevent this, simply don't move apps to SD. And suppose it happens that a reboot removes these apps, go to data/app and remove any .odex files OF THAT PARTICULAR APP you find there. The app should install normally again. The odex file will have almost the same name of the apk of the app uninstalled, like com.imangi.templerun........
Another simple workaround is to simply rename the apk of the app you want to install to any name without spaces and keep it in your sd card. When you reboot and the app disappears, don't install it like a normal app, just use root explorer to copy the apk to data/app. The no space error will not show. Try it

Just move everything to phone memory. In case it gets uninstalled after a reboot and you can't install it again, just copy the apk to data/app to get it installed. It's a bug, until it can be solved, use this workaround.
