[Q] Messaging Skins? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Is there any way to get the messaging app skins from the international version? Maybe we could install the international mms.apk? Any ideas?

I am interested in this as well, but I bet the international version of the mms.apk won't work on ours. Maybe some kind of port?

I just want to install the stock 2.3.5 Gingerbread Mms.apk. Waiting for root.. waiting for roooooottttt..

I think you need root
Does et4g have it yet?

ICS Dialer

Could anyone pull the stock dialer from ICS so we could use it on GB? I really don't like the touchwiz one...

Just sit and think about what your asking.
You need to start reading, ive been seeing you around asking the "Most noob like questions" and its been pissing me off.
Take this message anyway you want, but im telling you now. You should start learning more about the Firmware and skin you are running on your phone.
M&S
You can download the ICS theme for your rom and it will replace the current dialer to the ICS dialer. If that was what you meant..

[Q] Stock ICS Email app on GS-II

I would LOVE to be able to install the stock ICS email app on my GSII running ICS. I've used it on my Motorola Xoom, which runs essentially unaltered ICS. Is there any way to do this that does NOT require rooting and/or removing the Samsung app? I've already had one bad experience going down that road, unfortunately :-(
Thanks in advance, and apologies if this is a repeat.
this will help just a little...
i used an apk from either an amaze rom or one of the cm9 roms from sgs2 tmo.
cant remember,but one did work.
i do have an apk of the stock aosp mms that works (thinking i pulled it off the same rom it is dark themed).
if you find it let me know.
the one that worked installs without pushing into sys/apps,or overwriting tw stock email.
side note...
apollo player works (very cool)
desk clock works
video editor
torch
gallery 2
all work on unrooted.

Cool - I'll check it out! What tool can I use to separate APKs from ROMs?
root explorer.just extract all,go to extracted
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Looks like Root Explorer works when you've flashed your phone, which is what I'd like to avoid - is there a tool that lets you browse/extract the ROM on your desktop?
you can extract it without root.here ill post the apks i pulled.give me little while.

People/Contacts App

I'm loving ICS on my SII. This is the only android phone that I haven't rooted and don't plan to unless absolutely necessary.
However, I would like to have the stock ICS people app and (dialer if possible). I've already stopped using the TWlauncher and have been using the android launcher...love it.
Is it possible to load either of these without rooting?
And yes I've searched the board but could not find a concrete answer. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
you have to be more specific are you on the ota ics or gb
Dude man if your not using the tw launcher ROOT dude! Aosp is so much better.

It does say hes 'Loving ICS on his S2'. That aside i think he wants the AOSP dialer and contacts apps. I dont believe you can do that without rooting as they are in /system i believe and you cant touch that without permission. If anyone knows better please correct me.
Been using exDialer with the ICS theme. Freakin' awesome!

Yes. I have OTA ICS. I know I should just root and load a custom ROM. I did that a lot with my original Epic but I don't want to root just for those 2 features. Thanks for all the replies. Looks like I'll have to settle for Samsung Dialers and contacts. No biggie.
I would also like to mention exDialer. Load up the ICS theme and you're good. Contacts isn't the same as ICS stock is, but it's good.
There is also an ICS Phone app in Play Store.

How is it working on TW Rom's??
And is everything functional?
Edit:
MMS not working?
What's the point in using it if I have TO use 2 different SMS apps.
Guess it's better for the people running aosp Rom's!

Clearly you didn't read it. The stock one has borked mms. Simply if you need or want to send mms, just use the stock app on your phone. Receive will work fine if you have automatic receiving of mms enabled.
This is a lovely theme that many people love so giving them the option even with borked mms is worth it. Most people don't send mms every message. Perhaps you do. If so it's not for you! Sorry!
Is there a way to turn off/disable 160 character split? I'm surprised people still want this as a feature.

You're using the wrong one. People! Please refer to the post. You can't use the AOSP versions on stock. The stock one is specifically for stock and AOSP specifically for AOSP. And specific to its android version!

You have to modify the apk and people use it because SMS is 160 characters not 400+ like GSM carriers use. It's best to keep it this way for everyone. Don't like it? Send mms!
To use this I have to install this via recovery??

Stock works on any ROM. What ROM are you on sir? Perhaps your ROM has some weird setup?

Thanks. I can now confirm PA isn't playing well with it. Not sure why. I can try to theme the PA apk in the same way. If anyone is interested. You use the stock version for the time being.
I'll see if I can theme the PA apk tomorrow.
