No, actually it has to be included in the rom or flashable gapps..
Have you checked for Talk? The newest version has been renamed.
Looks like thats a AROMA installer rom.. If you did a custom install make sure you have selected the add-on Talk 1.3...
I haven't checked for talk. its definitely not in the market.
I looked back to the topic where I downloaded the ROM.... But can't really tell where I am supposed to pull that extra bit from... Maybe ill just change ROMs

Where can you get the Sprint apps such as Sprint Zone, Sprint TV, and Sprint Navigator when they are removed from roms? I didn't find links to them in the wiki (there probably should be one), and I didn't find them on a search. Does anyone have a link for the newest sprint zone, sprint tv, sprint navigator, etc?
Really?!? Really? You put a question tag in the topic. You have been here for over a year. Yet you still posted in the wrong section? Way to go.
I'm kinda new/newb.. But usually the dev will include a folder with zips on your sd cars and you can flash them or search the roms thread for the apk or zip
I know fresh has a folder...
Others just ask the dev and they will post it

As stated, they're usually included in the ROM under /sdcard/**removed apks or some sort. Fresh Evo ROM is an example.
There is no sprint zone in fresh's removed folder, it's the first place I checked. Anyone have a link to it?
Did you try unzipping a stock rom and looking in /system/apps
Helpful! Moron.

Sprint zone is in fresh folder under sprint promotion apk
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
get your flame suit on..most devs have a link to removed apps. Just look.
Here is all the Sprint apps from SteelH stock v3.26.651.6 │Rooted│ DeOdexed RevE3. I do believe all of them are the most up to date versions. I think the Sprint_Promotion apk is the Sprint Zone your talking about. Just install through adb. I could possibly make a flashable zip if needed.

What will I gain from deodexed roms?
What will I loose?
Sent From My HTC Evo Using Tapatalk Pro!
odex - more free space, faster boot, a little snappier.
deodex - customization (tweaks, themes ,fonts, etc.)
thats pretty much the big picture...
deodexed is preferred because u can just customize the phone in many ways... odex leaves u pretty much stuck at the same place u would be on a stock rom.
i do think this belongs in another thread.
Odexed - Unthemeable and MARGINALLY faster.
DeOdexed - Themeable and more space in system.
I really couldn't tell a difference as far as speed.
So far the biggest difference I can tell is that I had an odexed rom and I just flashed the latest update deodexed and titanium backup couldn't restore 90% of my data... I'm hoping this is an odexed vs deodexed thing and not a corrupt backup that passed verification thing..
To me the biggest advantage of going with an Odexed version is you can download updates from the Marketplace for the included apps when they become available. For example, if Google pushes an update to GMail or Sprint pushes an update to the Voicemail app, and you're on a deodexed ROM, you can't get it directly from the Marketplace....

Yea, I get updates all the time for my apps...
As far as downloading/updating apps it doesn't matter if it is deodex our odex; it depends on wether the rom is signed our not as far as I know.

I see. Apologies for spreading misinformation, apparently all the de-odexed ROMs I used previously we not re-signed then, or something.

The issue you are seeing is actually associated to ROM developers signing their apks with test keys.
Upon updating in the market, Android verifies the signing authority and if they don't match what they are in the Market, it fails to update.
DeOdexed or Odexed, If they are signed properly, things will update

Yup. De-odexing has nothing to to with sprint app updates. Depends on the rom.

I just flashed the new DeOdexed version as well and the big difference I can see is that I lost 35mb of app storage space. This is a bit of a issue for me. As soon as the Odex version is out I am going to reflash.

If you used the Deodexed rom that was released yesterday, the version of Busybox was the culprit for me. The rom came with some version 1.71 or something Busybox, and when I'd try to restore my backups, my phone would just reboot. I let Titanium install it's own Busybox (1.60 I believe) and it worked fine.
Everything updates....
just fine from the market. No issues here.
I have installed them over the latest cm nightly and on a fresh nightly install yet it seems to bring up the same apps to install and the same versions at that...am I missing something here? Doesn't our google apps installer just point to the market and not actually install any apps? Why would it even matter what version the gapps were then? Please someone break this down for me!

For the most part yeah it just points you to the Market apps. But some things like the Market itself, News and Weather, Calendar, and Talk are not on the market and come with the gapps flash.
Also, where did you get 0617? The latest I see is 0613 here http://goo-inside.me/gapps
Edit: 0613 is also the latest on ROM Manager

I am so sorry I was doing it from memory I meant to say 0613. So if I flash the latest package on top of my current nightly will it update those things that you named that are not included on the market? Thank you for taking the time to answer me I figured I would get ignored since it was a noobie question.
Also I'm on mobile app so I can't fix the thread title sorry everyone!

Yup it should update those things not included in the market. Personally I didn't notice any difference from 0307

After I flashed news and weather, and calendar are the same version. Don't think it updated a thing. Maybe it can only be done on a clean flash.

Perhaps the only thing newer in 0613 than 0307 is prob the Market

Hmm that would make sense. But can't the market just autoupdate itself? And why does the cyanogen wiki page and rom manager still povide 0307 as the latest? Weird. After extensive google searching there is nowhere that lists what is actually included in the google apps package. Some places have summaries but nowhere has an actual breakdown of what is included and what version, what the hell!
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Yeah the market does autoupdate itself but this way you just start with the latest version I guess, and why not
Also, the wiki is only as up to date as those who maintain it

i got JB CM10 with siyah kernel.. works just great by the way.. JB is so much better then ICS..
but for the record.. i got goo update for new gapps versions.. soo the following steps i should follow right?\
boot into recovery mode..
flash the new gapps
wipe cache partition
reboot?
is this the right order or do i flash cm10 again and then gapps? and do i need to flash the kernel also?

Stock apps as in stock sense? From a non-rooted mytouch or just the google apps? I would suggest looking for the cm wiki and downloading the google apps package from there, you might have the wrong set.
The stock google apps...like messaging, email, maps, etc. i'll try that when I get home

dude all i have to say is thank you...i looked up the wiki and uploaded the apps from there then RE uploaded the last stable version of CM7...and POOF it all worked perfect!!! Thanks alot!
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.
