Chrome - Samsung Captivate Glide

Just to let you know google chrome apk works on the glide and is an amazing browser
Its a modifyed version so it works
sent from my captivate glide

and where did you get this modified apk?
/edit:
The forum says there are several APKs with a Browser that has a theme/interface like Chrome, but the aren't actually chrome.
Ports seem impossible due to api restrictions.

Sure this is chrome that you have there?

Samsung Apps like Mini Diary, Memo...

It looks like these apps on other GSII devices aren't on our SGSIIE4GT? They seem like they maybe useful to me, is there a way to get them?

You could go to the GS2 development forums here on XDA, search for a stock rom, download it and extract the .apks.
.....
If u do get it post it up for me

Here you go, memo may need to be pushed to system/app or you can do it with file explorer.
Mini diary force closes. Anyone else have it working?

It worked fine for me with stock rooted ROM and zedomax/kernel, however, here is a version with the corresponding odex file.

[REQUEST] S4 stock apk to S3

Is there a way you can help port the secmms.apk & the other stock S4 apps to the Samsung S3 stock ROM???

My post at the bottom (at time of posting this reply) will give you a link to the new S-Voice from the S4 dump, as well as a better camera app ported from another device (not S4, but I'm not entirely sure which device)

I think it relies on some other files within the new touchwiz. I tried it last night, was able to open it. But it would crash right away. Might be 4.2.2 dependant.

I was able to get quite a few working, a lot of the main apps (secphone, secmms, gallary and camera) require additional work to get working. Shouldn't be too long until they are ported though.

Installation fails because it is missing libraries. This is on 4.2.2.

Comes with emoji support?
Edit: Just saw it does!!

Is this fully compatible with Toro? Just want to make sure, since support isn't explicitly mentioned.
Thanks a lot, i'm using the last one and it's great! stock 4.3 here

Thanks man, works great
possible to make a single .apk out of this?
So the problem is that I lost root after the 4.3 update and I'm waiting for the root to pop up on the forum. But in the mean time wouldn't it be better to just make a .apk so that we all can install it like a regular app. Kinda like an update apk of the mms. What I mean is that you know how Google maps are preinstalled in the system and when an update comes up on play store, it just disables the built in maps and uses the newer maps when we open maps. That new maps apk sits outside the ROM and can be removed or installed anytime without needing root and at the same time adds new features.
Is it possible to make a apk for MMS app this way?

Regular app (/data/app) requires its own signature and the way of the update as you say needs the congruence of the signatures.
Is there any way to change the LED color for notifications? I know it's not possible through the settings, but perhaps another way?

There are various apps you can use for that. I use Light Flow (also has a free version).
This is great! Nice work!
May I request an inverted CM10.2 zip as well?
Yeah it is, thanks nice one

[APP] Launcher3 w/ Working Landscape

This is a build of Launcher3 from AOSP corrected to properly display icons and folders in Landscape. "Properly" is a bit of a misnomer. I fixed it by reducing the size of icons for Flo. I think the correct fix is deeper than that, but haven't found that yet. Anyway, it doesn't cut icons off and works pretty well.
Things to know:
- This is the 4.4 Launcher, but it is not the GEL. There is no Google Now integration at all. (and the long-press Settings icon does nothing)
- The Quick Search Bar will not display after you switch to Landscape. Pressing Home while in Landscape makes it pop up.
UPDATE: The apk linked below is more current than the one attached. It's built with no minSdk restriction and should work on 4.2 or above. (It definitely needs 4.2)
http://www.mediafire.com/?4roil3438gbz6qk
Forgot to mention that this is built for minSdkVersion=19 (4.4) because that is what it's set to in AOSP. I don't actually know if that affects installing from an APK, but I can probably build it for 18 if anyone wants. That should work since it does for the GEL. (I know it needs 16 at least from things I noticed playing around in it)

There's a link to an APK with no version limitation in the OP. I've been told it doesn't install on CM 10.2, but I was able to install (but not run) it on my ICS phone. (I have no devices with JB installed currently.) And again, it does absolutely need 4.2.
I get there was a problem parsing the file with this.

Sorry. Not sure what was wrong with that apk. Updated the link with one which I'm 99% sure will work, and including it below. I tested this one on my Stock 4.3 N7 and it does work. (No transparency) There's no reason it shouldn't on 4.4. It's technically modded a bit, but that's all mostly broken and disabled in this build. I'll be releasing that soon.

Yes, But note this has None of the Google Now Integration.
I can also confirm that the medfiafire linked APK works fine on Stock 4.4.
Thank you very much dude!!! It was exactly what I was looking for after the 4.4 update on my nexus 7!
Nice one thanks
Installed on cm10.2
Google released the launcher earlier today. It has full Now integration and all the bugs seem to be gone. Works beautifully on my N7 and S3.

That happens to me on my S3. It usually fixes itself after a minute or so. On my N7 it's perfectly fine. Are you using the latest versions that I posted above?
Anyone else still prefer launcher2. I like trebuchet and Nova launcher much more.

Yeah but sometimes widgets and apps overlap the Google Search bar.

Any compatible browser.apk for Android 4.4?

As above. Chrome is terrible.
Android 4.4's WebView component is Chronium, which is almost the same as Chrome.
Browser.apk uses WebView.
You can try other WebView browsers in the Play Store such as Naked Browser and it will also have terrible rendering and scrolling speed.
Sorry, I actually mean the AOSP browser. Will the 4.3 apk work? Has anyone tried?
The 4.3 one won't work, tried it on the n5 port a while back

Just extract it from a CM11 rom.
Try this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2510676&page=2
Works like a charm for me. I must say that I truly hate Chrome. I mean sure, it has some cool features but It's the most laggy and choppy browser I've ever used! Pinch to zoom and scrolling is a pure nightmare. There was a time it looked like it was getting better, but then again 3 last updates just made it worse.

That one still has issues. I think we may have to wait for 4.4 to get an update and be pushed out to AOSP.
Yeah, I've just noticed that address field doesn't disappear as it's supposed to. Anyway, I am gonna have to stick with that until it gets updated. Cannot stand laggy browsers

there you go.. make sure to copy these over to system/priv-app
change the browser.apk permissions to -rw-r--r--
reboot and good to go
Thanks but it's still the same, all browsers become chrome. Aosp browser just doesn't work when signed in on xda.. Just jumps about.
It's a great step forward typing this in giant text in chrome that goes off the screen edge of the screen still. Gonna have to go back to 4.3 as 99%of my use on this phone is browsing the internet, and I can't handle this.
