Dark Gmail?

I searched, and didn't find anything. Is there a dark gmail for the galaxy nexus?

I'm using v 4.0.2 with no problems on a rooted but otherwise stock GN

Thanks a lot! I had a dark Gmail app in GB for a while, but it stopped working.
I don't know why Google doesn't make a dark Gmail - it looks better, and is easier on the eyes

And it saves some battery too. Always a plus.

thanks a lot guys! Do I need to root in order to install this?

Google should do this officially. It would be akin to adding the day/night mode from Google books.

As I understand it you'll need root access to delete the old gmail apk and move the new one to system, so yes.
You don't need CWM or a rom though, just root access on a stock rom and recovey will be fine.

Well I had to take it off, somehow it seems my google music stopped working after installing this. I made a nandroid backup beforehand and as soon as I rolled back my music worked again. Strange. Really seems weird that would cause any issue at all... Maybe it somehow messed up the account syncing since it would only crash the music when I tried to stream music, local content was fine.

Awesome, trying this now. Been hoping for this. The all white makes my eyes water in the morning because it is so bright...
The date on each email looks a little funny because its color is off, and at times goes outside the border. Also the read vs unread black/grey are very similar. It works though. I'll probably live with it.

I've been using this dark gmail app for days and like it. But just today i realized i went to compose a message and there is no way to send the final email. Am i missing something? Doesnt matter whether its a new email, or a reply to an existing email message, i cant send anything!
Am i being stupid or can someone test or confirm this? Thanks.

Been using these for a few weeks on gummy and CNA. Working great and they look good too.

Ok after more digging, this dark gmail is acting weird for me. It is the new ice cream version for everything including inbox etx. But when i compose a new email or reply to existing one, the compose window goes back to the gingerbread one, AND it has no send button. And no action bar etc. But if i go back to the inbox its fine there. I just cant compose.
Only change ive done is 2 days ago flashed the transparent status bar system ui apk. Im on stock 4.0.1. Anyone know what the heck could be going on here?

i just installed the gmail app from that link, and it is the old version just like it said. not the new ICS version. dammit i just want black gmail!

this might help other people. the link in the beginning of the thread had a broken gmail apk, the send button was missing with other stuff. it was all fixed and can be had over at this thread from the nexus s forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412997
that thread actually links back to the one at beginning of this thread, but dont know yet if they updated to the fixed send button version. anyway this has been driving me nuts and glad i finally found the solution.
regarding the other link to the (http://www.rujelus22.com/evo/downloads.php) i tried the google + from that and it also did not work, and broke my system UI. so i dont know if it needs to be for 4.0.3 or what, but i'm on 4.0.1 and it doesnt mention any info about that. hope this saves others some time!

S Voice

anyone tried S Voice with the Desire yet?
it installs on ICS so I think it might work
original: http://minus.com/llX3TROSRO4NH
fixed to work on unauthorized devices: http://minus.com/lCWshD37drA9R

Tested it now. Might be best skipping the intro and it fc when trying to change the wake command. Also double tap home didn't work for me either.
Clear data if you have fc on start up. But it does work. Can google search and text etc.

works, but very slowly on AOKP build 35. I will try it later on Sandvolds beta 8.1

It's slow at responding for all machines I think

Works rather fast for me. It fc when I do stuff like 1+1 or something like that. And its slow in opening apps. Sandvold ICS.

i've used the new one for checking the weather for location, sending text and calling - all seems to work well.

I install S-Voice from the apk from frandroid.com
And it works, open apk, understand french language...
I hope this apk will mature quickly

on HTC desire the installaton crash but, after a reboot, it works
nice one!

I do not have a crash during installation.
I'm on ics 4.0.4 bravo cyanogen mod 9 RC 3.4.U1.
And it works.

Does someone test http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673354 on HTC Desire ?

Tried the first APK, but it wasn't for me.
Also it's weird to say 'Hi Galaxy' to desire.
I suggest to wait for a year or so, so that developers can stabilize the system

work
The fix S voice apk and Spanish language works well for me.
I have 2 days with him and I am testing it

It works if u install it as a system app. Although its a waste of battery IMHO.

Google play movie freeze

I purchased 3 movies through the Google Play store. I can download them or stream them. My Nexus 7 will play the movie fine but my galaxy s3 will only play the first 9 seconds. The phone just stops at 9 sec then it will kinda "boot loop" that 9 seconds until I exit. Not an actual boot loop, just the best way to describe the problem. What can I do to fix this? I want to play movies on my phone while away from my Nexus 7. The phone is rooted running stock 4.0.4 I747UCLEM
Thanks

I have the same issue. I'm running rooted Nostalgia 7.5 UCALH1 ROM

I also have this issue

In just guessing, but it may be because your rooted.

My tablet is rooted but doesn't do this

I also have this problem. Tried to watch the walking dead in hd on the google play movies app. At 9 seconds it goes into loop until i stop it. Any kther ideas besides that we r rooted? I would really like to watch the new walking dead lol.
Thanks

I am also having this problem on Jellybean. Downloading my movie now to see if it's just with streaming.

Downloading it made no difference.. Still crapped out at 9 seconds

I'm having the same issue. Thought maybe because I was rooted but that gives you an error message and wouldn't let you actually start streaming. Works great on my Nexus 7 but I get exactly 9 seconds in as well.

Are you on a DeOdex'd ROM too? I have not seen it on an odex'd rom or CM10... Just DeOdex'd TouchWiz.

Just odexed and couldn't get it to play past 9 seconds
[edit] Wanted to see if it was only on the S3 so I downloaded Google Play Movies to my fiance's phone, my old MyTouch 4G rooted and running ICS. Played no issues. Apparently this issue is isolated to the S3.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

So I tested the issue out on a CM10 based ROM with no issue...what ROMs are you guys all using with the 9 second freeze?
This is the ROM that works for me.

I'm on JellyBombed v11 and have the same 9 second freeze. I even restored back to the stock rom (still rooted) and i got the freeze.
Is it confirmed that CM10 based roms don't have this issue? Thx for the help, glad i'm not alone in this.

I have this problem as well. Galaxy S3 T999. Currently running Wicked ROM v7. It's a TW based ROM. I just uninstalled it for now. Luckily all I got were some free TV episodes, and didn't actually sink any money into it.

Was there ever a solution to this problem? Its made its way over to the S4.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

An official one, no. However I do not have the issue anymore. The only thing that I can think of is that I am using a slightly modified kernel by freeza found in his deodexed MD4 thread. There might be a list of tweaks done to the kernel in there. Or try asking him.
Hope this helps!

Same issue...
Has anyone got any more info on this? I have the same issue with a sprint s4.

I'm also seeing something similar on an M919 S4. I do think it may be kernel-related, because I didn't see it on stock; I only got it once I tried to flash a Google Play Edition rom (mrvirginia's "Virgin Rom," which does use a custom kernel). But it also seems a bit idiosyncratic, since there's only one other person in the thread about that rom who has mentioned it, which suggests it's not a widespread problem.
My problem is slightly different than the one described here, though; it still plays to precisely nine seconds and then freezes, but rather than a "boot loop" (which to me suggests it keeps restarting from the beginning and playing to that point), mine screeches to a halt, with the screen not moving apart from a few graphical glitches, and making terrible noises. The "nine seconds" aspect makes me pretty certain it's a fundamentally similar problem, though.
As a side note, I sort of wish Google had chosen a better name for the app than "Google Play Movies," because it's seriously difficult to search for this bug with such generic terms.

I'm currently having the 9 second issue as well, ever since I updated to MJA on my Sprint S4. I've used the stock kernel and KTkernel, still the same issue (I'm currently sitting stock, rooted). Hopefully the update to MK2 might alleviate the bug.
Update: The MK2 update fixed the issue with Play Movies.

WhatsApp Not Working?!?!

Im using InDroid V6 for the fun of it and its based on AOKP... Apparently, i cant use WhatsApp on it... It showed me the Initializing screen then it goes to the HomeScreen EVERYTIME... Can anyone help me?
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda app-developers app

Right, did you go Pristine when you installed that ROM?
Because if old files are inside, the application will be confused to Initialize or Use old settings.
It happened to me once. Try it and give feedback
Click thanks if suggestion is found useful

And yep! I tried Pristine with Netdiver ROM, problem is, my SIM expired a few months ago and i thought WhatsApp will still wprk like normal... In fact, it didn... After several tries later, got it working again
NetDiver All the Way!!! And Build.Props!!!
