Can't make MMSKeeper a system app

[matwillshak]

I tried to convert MMSKeeper in system app, manually and with the app /system/app mover, but it does not work ("Error / Could not remount / system" with the app).
Any idea?
A ZIP file to flash maybe?

@matwillshak Thank you for your feedback. Can you please clarify and try the following:

1. Did you root your phone? (Sorry for the obvious question.)
2. Can you convert any other app a system app with the /system/app mover app?
3. What is the error message when you try to move the app manually? Or it just still does not have the required permission?
4. Can you remount the root filesystem read-write manually or with another app, then try /system/app mover? If so, does the app still give you the "could not remount" error? If not, what error message do you get?

@matwillshak Did you have a chance to pursue this any further? Any luck?

Hey bb, I used this app once and loved it. I don't want to use any data if I don't need too. I did run into a problem though, it was working fine for a couple of days then it stops working and it also left me unable to use mobile data. The only thing I knew to do was reset phone. I want to use this app, what can I do to get apn back to original state if it were to happen again? I have a verizon sg5. If still working on this project, I would suggest adding ability to revert back to original settings, if it doesnt already, cause I'm not 100% sure what to do.

Hi, I'm sorry to hear you had to reset your phone. I have sometimes had difficulties with the application myself. In particular, the widget does not seem to be working after reboot until you launch the app. Sometimes you have to remove the widget and place it on your launcher screen again. In any case, going to Settings -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names -> your APN and rewriting APN type to your phone service provider's default value resets your phone's behaviour without having to reset every setting on your phone. In fact, all what the app does is to change this field.

Ok, thanks. I'm going to give another go. And I've also had the widget stop working. Thanks for the quick response. I'll be in touch if I encounter anymore problems.
