using root explorer to copy and change permissions should be the same (for some reason, on my PE, neither root explorer nor ES file explorer could ever successfully write to /system or even remount it, etc. - which is only reason I use terminal app or adb shell for stuff like that)
installing the apk normally puts it in /data/app, which was what I tried at first and didn't work. but if it said parse error then sounds like it's corrupt somehow.
I have allmine applied, that could make a difference? if live wallpaper app needs device/framework to believe it's a phone.
or, just realized: in my build.prop I have fingerprint set as optimus V (and the picker app is copied from my optimus V) - that could possibly make a difference? so in case of vanilla allmine install, try the picker apk from nexus one (xda forums has it)
(can apk be valid/not per-device? when I originally tried the nexus one picker apk, it told me parse error)
sorry so many unknown variables... I'm still surprised it works at all for me.
