I strongly advise you to read my guides “How to uninstall a system application on Zidoo Android 6/7.1 based devices” and “How to install modded APKs on Zidoo Android 6/7.1 based devices” first.

kylin32:/ $ su
kylin32:/ # pm uninstall --user 0 com.zidoo.fileexplorer
Success
kylin32:/ # mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system 
kylin32:/ # rm -rf /system/zidoo_file
kylin32:/ # reboot

Copy the downloaded apk to Zidoo’s Download folder or a USB stick.

kylin32:/ $ su
kylin32:/ # pm install -g /sdcard/Download/zidoo_file_3.8.6-McBluna-signed.apk
Success
kylin32:/ # cp /data/system/packages.xml /sdcard/Download/

To recover the permissions of Movie Center as a system application you’ve to modify packages.xml. Edit packages.xml on your PC e.g. with Notepad++.
