[Q] Callulin E4GT v1.6 ICS mms - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I apologize if this has been asked before or if this is the wrong place, I'm having some issues searching from my E4GT.
Some background: I flashed Calkulin's ICS v1.6 rom, and its great!
The only problem is I don't care for the touchwiz messaging app. I really like the vanilla ICS messaging app though, and I tried replacing the mms.apk in /system/app, rebooting and wiping dalvik and cache. This mostly works, but I can't receive any messages when I do this. I can send however. Am I doing something wrong, is there a working stock mms.apk that I can load, or does the stock app need to be modified?
Thank you very much for your help guys!

What you did should've worked. I'd suggest trying it with another TW MMS.apk and seeing if you still have the issues. Here is the one I normally use. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/60430147/Installers/Mms (Themed B&W).apk
If you still have the issue there may be something else going on. If it works I'd pull a fresh MMS.apk from a stock ROM and try pushing it again?
Good luck!

I forgot to ask, did you remember to set permissions?

Thanks for the reply!
I did try another TW mms.apk, and that did work. Only the stock apk wouldn't work. I did check permissions too, and they were rw-r--r-- I believe. Don't have it in front of me. Either way, it matched the permissions of other system apps.
I think I may just try out another ICS rom. I've been playing a lot lately and loved AOKP but with build 40 had some strange volume issues, so maybe CM9 for a bit ha ha.
Thanks for the help again, I'll give it another go when I get a bit of time.

I'm not sure if the AOSP messaging app will work correctly on TW. A lot of vanilla apps don't work across like that. Doesn't it require you to build it with the TW framework or decompile and do some .smali edits before building?
Just speculation on my part. I remember not being able to use vanilla apps on my G2 with Sense roms so I'd figure it would be the same here for the most part.

Try ics messaging from play store, its free

[FIX] PhantomVoicemail - *86 - Sprint - AOSP/MIUI

Hey guys, I come from the EVO 4G (supersonic) forums and have experienced this unclearable, unfixable, *86 PhantomVoicemail issue enough, when running AOSP/MIUI/Sense 3.0+ ROMs to know how annoying it can be. A fix in the Phone.apk smali has been found for this and I'd be glad to fill requests.
Dj21o has brought it to my attention that not only the EVO, but the E4GT and probably many other Sprint phones can have this issue. Not everyone can go through the trouble of deactivating and reactivating the phone to fix it permanently, so here I am, ready to fill requests for flashable zips that fix the issue. This fix is ROM specific so as ROMs are being updated the fix will be updated as well, if devs want to implement the fix into their ROMs that would also be very helpful, so just post the link to the ROM you want fixed and I'd be more thank glad to help fix the issue. Post the DL link the the ROM or the ROM thread and sit tight.
NOTE: If using an ICS ROM/Recovery then you must wipe Dalvik-Cache, this ensures ROM stability. (I usually just mod the Phone.apk right after downloading the ROM, so I usually forget this step)
I will add fixes (all are flashable) the the OP as I fill requests. Check back to see if your request has been filled.​
Thanks a ton, many people will appreciate this.

Thanks! This would be great to keep alive everybody, so far I've fixed over 20+ ROM's.
Hello thanks for the fix. Would you be able to make an apk for CM9 alpha 3 that has the phantom voicemail fix but also works at 160 dpi? The one included with the rom crashes at 160 dpi. Thanks either way, if you can or you can't.

Oh, and you should also warn people about flashing your install zips on ics recoveries.
The fix you've shared are smali Java edits. Since they are, you'd need to wipe dalvik so the new classes.dex can be created. This wiping could potentially cause bricks when using any ics recoveries available right now.

I've used the apk with no problem. Change the permissions rw-r--r-- with root explorer and push to system/app.

I was referring to using the install zips posted in the OP. Caution should be used with these.
Manually moving the apk as you have indicated, you should also clear phone.apk data from the settings/app menu, delete the file with *phone.apk* in the name from cache/dalvik-cache, and then reboot.

Although I personally have only experienced this right after a brand new AOSP flash (it goes away after first reboot for me) I'm sure this will make many people very happy. Thanks for offering your services here!

Good looking out there...you're right about that. I'm very flash-a-phobic when it comes to doing anything while running a AOSP ICS rom.

The four times that I have had to do it, I literally changed permissions to the same in system/ app, copy and paste, reboot. And I have not had any problems. The OP knows what he is doing, since I have clearly done it four times. Make a backup if you feel more safe lol.

Dude, I've made this mod also for several e4gt aosp roms. So has teamERA, people over at epic og cm9, and the guy over at evo3d that probably was the originator of this mod.
If you edit the classes.dex file in phone.apk, then the dalvik cache needs to be rebuilt to update for this change. It's basic android operation for deodexed files. If it works for you not to do anything with dalvik, then cool. But it's not 100% permanent fix unless that dalvik is updated.
Look, I'm glad the OP wants to help out and offer modded phone.apk here. But it's irresponsible to post flashable zip files for ics roms, for the e4gt, and not provide a warning in the OP.

That's what a reboot is for, to rebuild the cache. And everyone knows that you don't just flash the zip by itself. You have to do the complete ROM, gapps (if needed), and then the vmail fix. OP doesn't even have our phone, so don't be a jerk about it. PM him about putting in in the first post.

Sorry I didn't mean to be a douche, either. You do have a point about flashing, and a lot of people will probably screw up if they are new to Android. But yeah let's keep it positive in here lol.

Hey OP, can I make one more request for when you have time. I like running my phone at very low dpi and the lowest the e4gt can go without system ui crashing is 129 dpi. Could you make a phone.apk with ghost voicemail fix that works at that low density [for cm9 alpha 3 rom]? Thank you very much. And to the other guys, you can just extract the package and then move the phone.apk using a file explorer and set permissions.

its the widget not the S planner D:
Any luck on finding the S-Planner App? I am on the LiquidSmooth ROM, and the only thing i miss about the stock ROM was the S-Planner. Can someone post the Apk file? Thanks!
This is the calender from LH9.
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/62284246/Calendar_4.0.4-I747UCALH9.apk
From my understanding of samsung and their wisdom, the S-apps are very intertwined with the Touchwiz interfaces. Roms like AOKP wont run them. If I am wrong, please correct me.
the Stock Email and Calender apps on my SG3 are the ONLY reasons I have not gone to a custom rom on this one. they are much nicer and more robust than the AOSP versions. If I had teh time to learn more about porting them, I would do so myself.
I also have a galaxy tablet. the stock ICS on it is mediocre at best. I tried going to AOKP, but again, the Calender and Email apps are far superior on the stock roms.
It's being a long time, but just in case you guys still looking for it here they are.
Just copy and paste it to /system/app and change permissions.
YOU NEED ROOT PERMISSIONS
Hallo,
I use the original Samsung ROM, but want the original calendar widget in inverted style. If I install the inverted google calendar I loose the S Planner functions for setting new calendar entries etc. Has anybody the original calendar widget that can run with the S-Planner?
Best regards,
Marc

nice love it thanks
downloaded all files provided in this thread and s-planer still crashing on my s3 i9300..
Im rooted and on custom rom from PARDUS ( v13beta4) rom is samsung based so everything should work.
got error touchwiz stopped responding ... when putting widget on screen.. sometimes its fine for few seconds.
I had to flash a custom rom on my fathers s3 because he need a higher version for bank app...
Now he miss his ~calendar app (S-Planner) for his phone, any chance to get a ported version ? Running some slim rom 4.4 on his phone.
S-Planner is a Samsung app and will require a stock Samsung kernel and framework to work. As far as I know, it will not work on a custom ROM that is not based on a stock ROM.

Can someone pull email.apk from their AOKP based ROM?

My email seems to be borked, but I LOVE the ROM I am on. Every time I try to change email accounts it force closes, I've tried it tall, fixed permissions, reflashed ROM, etc...
Figure I can try this and see what happens, would really appreciate it
Really just need anyone to copy the apk from system/app and upload it.
I guess I can just flash another ROM and do it myself, but would be easier for someone who already has basically any JellyBean ROM flashed to do it
Here you go. It's from AOKP JB Build 1.

[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.

Yes I too am having fc's while sending mms. Went back to other attached mms.zip and works perfect.
sent using gNote II.
Confirmed I also have force close when sending an mms.Bummer.
This one works flawlessly so far. SMS, MMS, Emoji's, etc. Enjoy!

Unbelievable, I must have tried ten different versions.This one works flawlessly - thank you so much!
Edit: nevermind I just realized it's stock and not the CM10 version with popups. I think I'll roll stock with the SMS Popup program though and call it a day. Thanks again.

REQUEST: AOSP messaging app (mms.apk)

I'm anxiously awaiting pure AOSP or CM based ROMS - I'm sure they're coming soon.
I'm not a dev, but I am fairly savvy. I'm trying to get a working mms.apk ported to the stock OG ROM. I get terribly frustrated with the stock mms app bug I've discussed in another thread and know it is related to the mms app and not the keyboard. I'd like to revert to the AOSP messaging app if possible (and avoid GO SMS or Handcent).
So far I've tried the following:
1. Install Android 4.1 JB Messaging SMS by Tim Hutt from the Play Store -- everything works beautifully except no MMS
2. Copy stock mms.apk to /system/app, rename LGUSmms.apk, change file permissions, reboot -- again, everything works fine, except MMS won't send a pic, it'll attach it, but when you hit send the pic just disappears
***I'm wondering if I need to rename the new mms.apk to LGUSmms.apk???
If anyone has any advice/tips/ideas I'd be very grateful.
