Recently a friend and I flashed Black Ice (both loving it btw!) but he noticed there was no Movie Studio (wasnt on mine either). Taking a look at the zip file for the ROM I can see the .apk file but it didnt seem to install. I was lucky enough to have a nandroid of when my phone was stock and extracted it from there but my friend didnt.
I also found that the Gummy ROM had the apk as well so I sent him the apks and he was able to install it no problem. In my searching I didnt find an easy place to find this app so I was wondering if I should post it up in the apps section here?
Not sure where to host it or if there is someone who has hosting and wants to I could send them the APK?
I run AOKP and it has it, but it seems its not in the 4/29 Gapps ZIP. Is that odd? Seems like its not a core ASOP app.
Any way you can use a free host via http://www.multiupload.nl/
Also report to the ROM dev about the app not flashing.

Hey I'm currently running the CyanogenMod-6.0.0-Slide-RC1 on my mytouch slide and was making attempts trying to install some stock apk files. From another thread (which I shall not mention just so the thread stays open) I was able to download the stock apk/odex files for the faves and friends widgets and the mt3gs swype (in my opinion the best working/looking version of swype out there that I've tried at least...).
The apk/odex files are saved onto my sdcard, in my downloads folder. I'm not sure if I'd actually need to rewrite some code or something to get the stock stuff to run on CM6. Any light anyone could shed on the subject for me would be GREATLY appreciated!
First, most of the HTC widgets will only run on a rom with sense, which CM6 is not. Second, I don't believe CM6 is an odexed rom (I haven't used it, so someone correct me if i'm wrong), so you can not use the apk/odex files from the stock build. Third, this post would be for Q&A not development.

Okay, well as you can tell, I'm obviously a noob when it comes to programming as well as this forum..so thanks for the heads up.
And thanks for the info about HTC widgets only running on sense, that really helped out a bunch.
If you want to add or remove system apps try this:
1 Get 7zip
2 open CM6 with 7zip
3 Navigate to /system/app folder with 7zip
4 Add or remove apk's you want,thats it you are done
Odex files are not required for 90% of apps in CM6
Hope this helps,i have made a barebones(minimal) rom-its posted on here,all you need to do is add your own apk's to it.Or just make your own rom,but adding google apps to a rom requires adding few more files to /lib and /xlib folders,if you new to android try my barebones rom it will save you few headaches adding google apps.
Hey

Could you point me in the right direction for the stock swype apk?
Thanks lviv, i'll try that and i'll let you know if it works, thanks!
And panda, I found the yhread somewhere in this development area..i'll look for it again and post a link?
On second thought, maybe i'll just pm it to you.

BLEH.
I had trouble running the command line .zip version of 7-zip. I've extracted the files from the zip and try to run the program but it open and closes right back up. I've tried reinstalling and what not but it still doesn't work...I'm running Vista 32 bit if that helps at all.
Thanks again!
Oh, and here's the link to the stock stuff for the MT3GS, enjoy! (I do not take credit for any of the work put into the linked thread, I'm just passing along some great stuff!!!)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=729529&highlight=stock+apk
EDIT: I'm dumb and figured out how to use the 7-zip program. Super stoked...I hope my mods work.
Bleh, I tried putting the stock myfaves, friends, and skype .apk and .odex files into the apps folder and made my own custom rom...installed everything fine and then I looked through my apps and widgets to see if I could use it aaaaaand. They're nowhere to be found. Great. =/
So again i'm stuck without the slightest idea what to do next. Thanks in advance for the help!
Does anyone have the Pocket Legends APK released yesterday?
I would be so very thankful if someone could supply me with it since it is the only bloody app that refuses to download from the market.
having the same problems on my phone as well.
had my mate next to be download and install it but weirdly the apk doesnt exist in data\app or system\app....
but +1 i want the apk too
Can't he do a search for the .apk?
yeah we searched for pocket* using root explorer with no results. Unless you know what its called..
Get him to uninstall it, get the application installation tracker, reinstall and it should say shouldn't it?
he tried to uninstall it and it made his launcher crash. now it doesnt show up in his app drawer after he rebooted his phone. he went to market to uninstall there and now it will only download but not install. It just hangs at the installing status.
hes not too happy anymore haha...
This apk is impossible to find, even apps like apkshare won't find a trace of it.
Scratch that, I got it

Mine failed first attempt to download from the Market, second time went fine. Awesome game

nice!! thanks mate!
I'm still having issues with this. I've downloaded it to my Evo using Myn's rom, wont install. Donwloaded the apk from here, still wont install.. flashed CM6 and still no luck. Is it not compatible with the Evo or something?
It originally installs on the SD card, and is 40(!)MB, so make sure you have space.
Mine also installed 2nd time from the market, and it's fun to play! I'm happy to see and MMO finally on android, I was craving for one! A bad point is, that it seems you have to pay a lot of extra to buy +dungeons, items, etc. No good....
Really nice with BT Mouse and TV-Out this one!
Thank you for the link

1.5.1 is on market but problem with download still here ( plz can anybody upload it somwhere?
:/
I have the same problem
I dont understand, what is so special on this aplication, that its not possible download it from repository of market. Other applications are downloading correctly.
When I press install, It seems that it will start downloading, but after few seconds apears download bar, where is nothing happening. I am user of Desire with Leedroid froyo rom. I tried clean market and download manager data, but problem is still there.
Do you have any idea how to resolve it?
Meantime can someone upload .apk file of version 1.5.1?
Thanks and sorry for my english.
Ah yes, the game has been updated (to 1.5.1), the earlier APK is not usable any more. And for me it appears to actually download it, just not install it.
same to me...can't install the game from the market .
and i have the earlier apk version
Thanks for the download link!
Hello. Hopefully someone can help me with this.
I have created an Elite themed Launcher Pro (based on Koni's Elite series I rom). I have all the framework modified and the apk ready to flasha gain.
I started by using the zip from the Myn's Rom launcher pro and replaced the framework files. i flash it and it does place the apk in data/app however the phone doesnt recognize that it is present. Nothing shows in applications under settings and cant get it to "run".
When i move the apk to system/app it works perfectly.
anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this. I am sure i probably just missed something silly but i cant seem to get it going for the life of me.

Only thing I can think of is when modifying it got signed as system file maybe? Not too sure cause I modified the original LP apk and reinstalled from SD root like normal app. Seems this would be easier than having to flash it but just my thoughts.
Also, why not just leave in system/app?
The main reason for not leaving it in system/app (and also for the flash) is because it doesnt put the dock background on by default. Those who would like to use it have to go and set it them selves. Which isn't a huge deal by itself but trying to make it as easy as possibe for the users.

I need the files for the default kindle fire launcher so I can help port it for other devices and if you don't have it how do I obtain it
Do your research. There is already a thread regarding the KF Laucher port in the dev section. There is no need to open yet another thread.

Ok this is the Apk from the stock kindle firmware
If you get the files you need, how long would it take a certified hacker such as yourself to complete such a port?
probably going to need a lot more then just the apk. could probably just download one of the stock Roms on the forums and extract the zip to get all the files you may need. It would be nice to port over a few more stock apps into other Android versions. I personally have spent more than a few hours trying to get the stock email and contacts app working on CM7 and is not as easy as I thought it would be. I also suck so I'm sure that has something to do with it.
The APKs are encrypted. You cannot just go into it, pull out code, and easily port it over unless you decompile them first.
It's just garbled junk when you extract it.
The OP has no idea how to do this, and it's already something someone else is currently trying to do and even they're having a few issues since it's pretty much just images and fancy shader plugins that make up the entire thing. Not even the bookshelves themselves are images either.

question?
How am I able to extract Roms and then push files from the extracted Rom to my device? Just curious as I do this all the time. Nothing major, did this with things like the bootanimation.zip from cm9 and a few apks from zips of Roms for my phone. Most would not install if I just put on sd partition and hit install but for example I am writing this on the stock keyboard I took from the prerooted stock 6.2.2 Roms zip. Extracted the zip to my desktop, used that qadb thing floating around to overwrite the file with the same name in CM7 on my Kindle and was able to use the keyboard after rebooting. Like I said just curious, do understand it's not always as easy as putting an apk in a directory and rebooting but I use files from extracted Roms all the time.

This is an educated guess, but I think it has to do a lot with whether or not an app is tied to the framework, or to the specific device ID.
Its not that hard i downloaded the email client from the kindle fire on my xperia play all what i did was go into root explorer and make a copy of the apks on my sd card

Ok. So I have been reading a lot around many different Forums about the Voicemail Notifications and it also sending an SMS Notification. Seems the quick fix is the obvious which is installing another SMS Agent and deleting the Stock. Problem is is that to me that is like having the check engine light on in your car and just putting black tape over the light or pulling the bulb. yes it hides the notification but still leaves it broken. My question is What files handle the voicemail? Since all custom roms do not have this problem it seems there is a fix somewhere.
Another question is how can there be a rom with no SystemUI.apk? I flashed Elite Rom and I have searched through every file and folder with Root Explorer,Rom Toolbox,ESFile Explorer and Astro File Manager and yet to find the first thing that even as much as says systemUI.
What Rom are you running? Does the voicemail thing happen on Elite Rom? Just block the sms text that it sends you. As for systemui.apk its in system/app, and if its not there try looking in data/sysapp or something similar

At the moment I am running Energy Rom. No it doesn't happen on Stock whether odex or not. Doesn't happen on Elite or a few others either. It happens on nearly all ICS or JB Roms and anything with the newer versions of Sense built in.
As for the other I have looked those locations many,many times. What got me to looking is I do not like the Status Bar and it doesn't have screen capture. I tried to just flash both but no go so I decided to just change the systemui.apk file to one that does work. If your interest is now peeked I would say download and unzip the Rom and search for yourself. There isn't a file or folder I can find that I haven't checked. Also flashed it and checked via root to see if it was a file that I would only find once flashed. Haven't located it in 2 days looking but the Rom does work except I can't change the ui to something else.

SystemUI.apk is right here (see attachment)
Its in /system/app.
As for the ics thing, i cant help you there because i never run those.
Thanks for the screenie but it is Elite Rom with no SystemUI.apk but after much travel through Google Search the best I can figure is that the version used for the Rom doesn't have this file. I read somewhere that 2.1 and before didn't use the file which is what this Rom was based off.
As for the voicemail coming in SMS I found 2 different fixes but 1 doesn't work for me and the other I do not know how to do. First is an SMS to 9999 saying Block 9016. Got a reply saying blocked but the very next message also sent an SMS. Not sure if it is just my phone or no so......The other is to replace the Phone.apk in system/app with one from a rom which doesn't have this problem. I tried many different Roms using Root Explorer to copy/paste the file and recovery to fix permissions but always came up with stopping unexpectedly errors. I did do the wipe cache/davlik also. Is there another step to this process I am overlooking? This SMS 9016 is what is causing me to not use a ICS Rom that is really awesome otherwise. I really don't want to install the bloated GoSMS or HandscentSMS.
