Hi
I'm trying to move my security software apk file to the /system/app folder to make it hard reset proof. I renamed the original apk which is in the /data/app folder. I then copied the file to the /system/app folder and renamed it to the original filename. I then installed the apk, chose replace. What happend was that the app created another apk in the /data/app folder this time with a "2" behind it.
I'm guessing the apk has code in it that tells it to install there. So what I was wondering, can I set a specific default install directory, install the apk and then return it to default?
or
Where do the file go after the apk is ran, the program isn't ran by the apk because when you try and run it, it just asks to install it, not open the program. Could I move the actual app files and edit the install path in where the os stores the list of installed apps and there paths (where ever that is?)?.
