Hi guys. Newbie here. So I've rooted my Samsung galaxy s3 and have been trying to install an app. I've read in many places about simply copying the .apk file to the system/apps folder but I can't seem to find this folder on my phone. On my sdcard (using ES file explorer), I see folders such as Alarm, Android, DCIM, Media, smvvm, etc. but no System folder. Please tell me where I can find it. Thanks!

Not really fond of es file explorer. But when you open it. Look on top and choose favorites. Then tap on the phone icon to get to the phone files. There you will find system.

Remember, if you are moving, deleting or replacing files you will need to go into es file explorer settings / root settings and check root explorer and mount file system.
