Bye bye pen window

[Jataadroid]

First off thanks for stopping and seeing if you could help with my problem.

I used towelroot to gain root and tweak stock on sprint note 3, which worked perfectly. After installing busybox, supersu, and Xposed installer I went about reclaiming my phone from bloatware and limptard features. At one point I searched what apks were safe to remove from TW based roms, one that wasnt specified in the list was rakein.apk which I ASSUMED (<-- the whole reason for the headache...not confirming its true function) was part of scrapbook due to its icon....nope it controlled pen window.

I need to find a way to reinstall rakein.apk to system/app without it being cleared upon reboot.

Steps attemped so far:

Restored through original backup method-failed

Manually placed apk in system/app, corrected permissions to rwrr-failed

^ that plus mounted system r/w then unmounting partition for reboot-failed

Sideload-failed

---------------
Havent seen anything other fixes except a fresh flash from sammy.
Theres nothing changed on my sprint note 3 except for xposed and active modules all of which ive scoured for possible solution.
Sadly I didnt have a current sys backup either.

Thanks again for everyones help.

Have a good day.

You can always Odin back to stock and reroot. If everything else fails.

Ya... I was just hoping there was a reason for not being able to just restore it but I guess I broke it lol. Thanks

I have not used touch wiz for a while but what does pen window do? I use Tasker to pop an application menu and change keyboards when I detach the S-Pen. I am using SlimRom also.

It is just Samsungs version of a floating app windows. Adjustable by drawing the desired dimensions with the s pen. Multiples of the same windows. Rooted and equipped with aean developed app, all apps are pen window compatible.

Maybe you missed the odex?

Remove .apk extension from odex file. added it only cause of xda file type filter.
