[Q]How to add android keyboard to SuperVillain ROM - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I am running SuperVillain ROM 1.0 and would like to have the android keyboard. I have tried a few methods to get this working, but it just won't. Maybe i am missing something....? I have tried flashing a .zip file of the AOSP keyboard, tried installing the .apk via app installer, i have also tried moving the .apk from SD card to system/app via root explorer. No luck.
Can anyone tell me where i am going wrong, and how best to install it. Leedroid ROM has it installed, so i dont see why SV ROM can't.....?
Thanks.

[Q] How can I install the stock android calendar?

Hi,
I'm using a rooted DHD, with the stock Sense ROM. I've tried installing the stock android calendar the following way:
I removed the HTC calendar.apk using root explorer. Then after extracting it from a cyanogenmod ROM i installed the android calendar.apk. The install went fine, but I got a force close each time I opened the app.
Then I also removed the HTC GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk (using RE), exctracted the cyanogenmod version and tried installing it but after each attempt it says "App not installed".
Should I flash this file using ROM manager instead, or will that **** up my DHD? (Will it even work if I do this?)
As you can see, I'm pretty much in the dark here.... Does anyone have a flashlight? I would greatly appreciate it!

buddies app??

ok any one know of an app like the buddies widget that came on the stock phone. that was one of the few features I liked. thanks
Found the .apk from an old thread. Doubt the widget changed from Froyo to Gingerbread.
Use a file manager like Root Explorer and push to /system/app. You may need to reboot afterwards.
Thanks tried installing with astro and apk installer but neither would work. something must have changed
Hmm, well try the BuddiesNow.apk from this zip file. You can pull the apk from the zip or flash the entire zip in CWM.
This zip file originated from the CleanGB rom thread.
I am running clean gb rom now what all does this include
never mind i followed the link
and thanks

[Q] Is it possible to install CarHome from google in a non-supported ROM?

Hi, I've been searching but didn't fin the way. I'm trying to install CarHome in Oxygen but I can't download from the Market. Also tried flashing the gapps zip for CM7 but can't launch the app.
Also tried installing the CarHomeLauncher (taken from AlexV ROM) and then the app itself but no luck.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Edited: Sorry I found the way. I just needed to put the two files (CarHomeLauncher.apk and CarHomeGoogle.apk) in /system/app AND reboot.
Installing them on /data doesn't seem to make it work.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If that helps in any way, there is nothing missing here :/ I installed the stock 4.2.2 this morning and I have all the widgets...
Maybe it's a problem with the .zip stock ROM?? Maybe they will work just fine if you re-install the stock ROM.
If you want to push them manually, extract the .zip stock ROM on your PC, go to system/app and find all the widget apk files and push them to the system through a root file explorer
Hope I helped
