Default SystemUI.apk problem

So, as posted on the lenovo community forums, now that we have obtained root we can change the system bar icons (ie back, home, apps) back to stock by swapping out some png files.

I've successfully pulled the file and changed the files using winrar on my pc but the problem I have is putting the SystemUI.apk back into the /system/app folder where it belongs... it gives an error saying not enough free space for the move.

I'm not knowledgeable with adb to know how to use the commands to push and mount the system folder, so I've tried Root Explorer and ES File Manager both with the same problem.

In both File Managers I've had root access and mounted the folder as read/write. I also deleted a bunch of lenovo apps out of there that were much larger than the SystemUI.apk that I've been trying to replace so I don't know what else to do.

Any suggestions?

I've had similar strange problem and I only made some space by deleting so you can try to push Lenovo apps on data partitions that's several times bigger that system one.

We had managed to replace the stock status bar with the default honeycomb one on the K1:

**just realized that the link to the statusbar uses megaupload, will try to reupload later.

Hey,
just messed up with my systemui.apk and now my taskbar is completely gone. I tried to backup with titanium but nothing changed -> always a forceclose message appears.
I also tried to copy and paste the file from the titanium folder manually into system/apps but still the same.

does anyone know what to do? looking forward to some answers.

- reboot (No Taskbar but no errors, right?)
- Copy files (There need to be a SystemUI.apk and a SystemUi.odex)
- reboot again

I got my taskbar always back.

thanks for the answer, koshu.
unfortunately it doesn't work at the moment.
might it be possible to send me your original systemui.apk and .odex?
maybe they will work!?
