[Q]ICS AOSP apps running on FB17 - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

stupid question? I decided to take Maddoggin's ICS ROM, with the theme and take out some of the twiz apps(contacts, phone, messaging, browser, camera and gallery). I replaced them with the AOSP ICS apps. Browser, camera and gallery worked fine, but then I realized I had no phone app, I made sure I added it to the ROM, which I did, so then I realized I wasnt receiving texts also. I would enjoy having AOPS apps if possible, if maybe someone could help me out, or give me some info, thatd be great.

That is not gapps ....Google apps are market, gmail, etc ....that is just aosp you are talking about try to ask calk or one of the devs that did a aosp clone of GB they can tell you what you need to do maybe

Eh, I wanted to say stock apps...but I didn't any one to think i meant Twiz stock, but I would've put AOSP. Thanks I'll ask them

Contacts.apk has to be signed with the same key as another apk (cant remember which one) in order for it to work.
EDIT: Here is the old pm I got from Vaelek...
Ok here's what you want to do..
If you don't already have it, download Android Commander (androidcommander.com)
It will not run if your phone is not plugged in, so plug it in (USB Debugging will need to be on if it is not) and launch Android Commander. Go to Tools > Sign File > Sign APK Settings. Click the download button, and then set the path below to where you saved it.
Next go to Tools > Sign File > Sign APK File
You will need to sign the following: ApplicationsProvider, ContactsProvider, HtcContacts, HtcDialer, and Contacts (AOSP).
The AOSP dialer is bundled in the Contacts.apk. The AOSP Phone.apk will not work on a sense rom.
Hope this helps. Feel free to ask further if you need any more help.

[B][/B]Vanilla Dialer on HTC Sense ROM ?[B][/B]

Hey y'all! I did a whole guide of using the Vanilla MMS app on HTC Sense, it was a SUCCESS! Soo now, I was wondering if someone could see if the DIALER on the Vanilla ROM can work with the HTC Sense ROM.
So basically, I am needing someone to Extract the Vanilla (or other ROM) Dialer and put it on the Sense UI ROM. Somehow, my phone has different settings, so I can do this myself.
If you find out, please provide the APK and a guide if possible!!
This should be fairly easy and possible. Should be just like porting the MMS on Vanilla to HTC Sense! I need testers! Thanks guys!
Hope you like my guide on Vanilla MMS on HTC Sense! thanks all!
PS. Is it possible for Vanilla Gallery to work on Sense UI? I will be testing this tomorrow, also, I will keep this thread updated! Thanks!!
Also, if anyone has CM and whatever kinds of ROMS out there, If they can post their Dialer.apk's or apk's related to dialers/phones that would be AWESOME thanks!
Anyone know how to BOLD the Title? I kinda FAILED at it! hhahah thanks guys!
I will test anything you want i HATE the sense dialer!

I can't remember now, but a while ago I used the contacts.apk and phone.apk from an aosp rom (don't remember which one) on a sense rom (not sure which one either, maybe it was Tainted Vanilla).
You can try ripping those apks from and eclair (not froyo) rom and seeing if they work, or download the old Tainted Vanilla rom (maybe even one of the new ones) and see which dialer they use.

maybe rip the contacts.apk and phone.apk from CyanogenMod-6.1 for Vision :: V6.1.0-RC2 and give that a shot.
btw: you can download the rom, un-zip them and navigate to system/app/ and grab the apk's from there, That is what I did for the vanilla Mms.apk
thanks Wheeliest! You never disappoint me! hah
Also, if anyone has CM and whatever kinds of ROMS out there, If they can post their Dialer.apk's or apk's related to dialers/phones that would be AWESOME thanks!

Cool! thanks for the support guys! A little mistake I did.. i didn't copy the Contacts.apk haha soo if someone can copy that and maybe the lib file like shortlived says! thanks guys! lets make this into a reality!
edited because i found my mistake....also any luck?
Here is what ive gotten to work so far... I found a replacement dialer here http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/59459-replace-htc-dialer-dialerone-vanilla-clone.html
Download that file there then take these steps
1. change file name to com.android.htcdialer.apk
2. get your phone into recovery and mount the /system
3. adb push com.android.htcdialer.apk /system/app/
4. restart phone and your good to go.
be warned this does not get you the stock dialer. This is a clone type app which does look very similar but it has a few bugs. the main ones being it still uses the htc contacts app to add info and whatnot. i will play with this some more and see if i can't get it to work better by changing over the contacts.apk however I see a LOT of things all tied together with sense so i'm not sure how much more we will be able to do. it might be eaiser to just make a better clock/weather/animations and drop the sense ui all together.
My god.

[Request] Stock Samsung Apps

Hey guys!
I just flashed CyanogenMod 7 on my Ace, but I'm missing some stock Samsung apps, like recorder and notes. Can someone point me where I can get them, or how can I extract them from an Odin-compatible files? (I have them here, just in case)
Thanks!
First of all u should have posted this in the general section [ I think ]..a moderator will move this thread to general section soon....
Coming to ur question ..its not possible to install Samsung apps (the app store) or any other app downloaded from it..I think its bcoz of the framework ...cm7 has a diff framework ...u can find some replacements for stock Samsung apps in the Android market aka Google Play store...cheers

Yeah, just copying and installing the apks don't work. It doesn't even install. Gives me an nice "App not installed" message.
Anyway, all that I most miss is the Notes app. I've searched for some others in the Store, but none were as minimalistic as the stock app was. Can someone point me to some app that will be as closest as possible to the stock app?
And, one more thing, no way that I'll go back to the stock rom, CM7 is WAY better!
Did you try do put into /system/app? Also, I think you need the tw framework.

Installed using Android Commander as System App, but didn't worked. And, sorry for the noob question, but, wth is tw framework?
It's the touchwiz's framework, needed by some stock apps.
Oh yeah, now I get it - tw and touchwizz.
How do I "install" the tw framework?
You need to push it from /system/framework and put on your CM7 and set the permissions.
It will not mess with CM framework? And what permissions do I need to set?

I tried to insert them as system apps, but on Sammy ROM, the phone functionality is gone when deletein the original SecPhone.apk. So I'm pretty sure that it does not work that easy.

What posts should I read? and why don't you help the OP then?
As for dialer replacement apps, they don't replace everything (most often only dialing pad and/or contacts list) and often are unstable.
I replaced secmms.apk with aosp. Works fine. Had to name it same and reboot. Did you try that with dialler?

1. He wanted a solution without a whole CM9 ROM, you told him he could install such a ROM. Questions? No...
2. I told him that the stock CM9/AOKP Dialer app does not work in Sammy ROMS.
Thats kinda help imho.
@OP
I tried ExDialer from market with ICS theme. Very nice. But the original Dialer app from ROM needs to be active in ROM. Without it=No phone connectivity.

[SOLVED] Stock mail and messaging apps / CM10 messaging

Can anyone point me in the right direction for where I can find or extract apks for the stock Android 4.1 mail/exchange app along with the messaging app? I've given it a day but I'm not a big fan of Samsung's. The calendar is pretty bad too...
I tried flashing the CM10 messaging app but it didn't work, I assume there are other dependencies that it's missing, though it's supposed to work on stock JB devices. Has anyone had any luck with it?

google "GAPPS" for stock google android apps or you can google 4.2 GAPPS for the lastest 4.2 version of GAPPS
CM10 apps only works on CM10 based ROMs, all of us are using Samsung based ROM's.
Cm messaging on the market.

GAPPS doesn't include the mms or exchange apps. I'll try extracting from another ROM.

Hmmm, yeah I see its not there anymore.
Alright this was a bit of a pain but I figured it out. Here is the stock Exchange app that worked, and here is the stock MMS application (threading is working). For posterity I've also attached them as uploads.
Uninstall the existing apps using Titanium Backup or by manually nuking the MMS, SecEmail, and SecExchange apk and .odex files from /system/apps and then flash these via TWRP or CWM. Next is up is contacts and calendar
CM10 Messenger App
This CM10 mms apk from the Note 1's Liquid Smooth ROM seems to work flawlessly. Popups and threading are all working correctly. I extracted from the ROM itself, but here's the apk itself.
Same deal, nuke the stock mms, move this to /system/apps/ and install.

[Q] E-mail APK

I have the boost mobile s2, which I'm told is exactly like the samsung epic touch 4g. I am rooted and am on a custom rom (pacinblack). I am trying to install a mail apk file someone linked me to that also has a widget inside this app. The file is email.apk. I also have es file explorer. I downloaded the file and I long pressed the file (in es explorer) to install it. It said it installed correctly. I then reboot my phone and go into my app drawer and widgets and there is no mail app. Am I doing something wrong??When I go into settings-apps and when I look in the download section, there is no mail app, but when I go into the all section I see something that says exchange services. Is this the e-mail apk I am looking for. When I press on this, it gives me two options, to forcestop or diaable?? This is called exchange services and has a picture beside it of mail, so I figured this was it. Does anyone know why this is not showing up in my app or widget drawer?? Does this apk file have to be in a particular folder on my sd card or in systems? Someone told me in the other forum that to put it in systems-apps. I tried moving it to there but it wont move there and when I try, it changes the name of the file but leaves it right where it is?? I have root access enabled on my es explorer so that is not the problem. If anyone has any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated. I am seeking help in this forum because the other forum is not that active and there doesn't appear to be any active developers there. Thank again.

Is the email.apk compatible with Pacinblack? What I mean, for example, the email client in JV is secemail.apk. You may have an incompatible email.apk. I tinker with my system apk's all the time. Just copy your email.apk that you currently have in system, anywhere. Then long press the one in system file, delete it, then cut and paste your friends in there. If it doesn't take, just put your original one in there, but if it's compatible with Pacinblack, which I believe is jb, it should take. Good luck.

Thanks for the responses. Like you said, I'm surprised pib rom doesn't have a native app. Do you have any idea what that exchange services is under settings-apps-all. There's a little mail icon next to this. If that's not for email, does anyone know where I can get the right apk mail file for the pac in black rom. Maybe I have the wrong apk for this rom. I was looking on the epic 4g rom developer thread but couldn't find the file and I couldn't post on that thread to ask.
