Inverted Apps

Just got this phone. I will be porting all of my evo inverted apps over. A lot of them work already just finishing up Google+ and the market.

Oh hell yes . I've been using your inverted apps for a while now, started on the OG Epic 4g, now with the ET4g. Congrats on your new device!

I assume you'd have to uninstall the app first and then install the inverted version?
And how do I uninstall gmail? Would I just delete the .apk in root explorer?

Really glad to hear you got this phone. Thanks again for your work

Deleting the apk and putting mine in it's place with root explorer should work. I always use adb to push it there. It will have to be installed this way for now, at least until I get an updated flash-able zip for this phone.

Damn. That didn't work for me and I can't get gmail to install at all.
A titanium restore of gmail didn't work either. Tried grabbing again from the market and when I try installing it, it says "application already exists".
Argh!!! How do I fix this?
EDIT: It came up with a reboot. Phew!

The newest version of Google+ has a different setup for the main stream, I am in the works of flipping that over then it should be good to go. I am hoping to get it done in the next day or two.

I assume the rom has to be deodexed to flash any app that downloads in the form of a zip? Such as the Google search bar? Or can it be install with root explorer?

Facebook app looks great. When you first install it, everything is great, and the news feed is inverted. But once you exit out of the news feed, and reenter it....the background goes white again.
Thanks for all the work.

I have never tried to install them on an odexed ROM so I am not sure if it will work or not.
Yeah the feed is pulled straight from m.facebook.com so unless facebook wants to invert there mobile page that is the way it has to be.

Is the inverted market app good to go?

Very nice, I'll test it out. Thanks.

Looks like Google+ and Docs are going to take a min. Don't know if it is a root/ROM/ or phone issue but neither docs nor Google+ will sync anything once they are installed. Just sits on connecting...
I have tried decompiling and then recompiling without changing anything and I still get this issue. If anyone knows a fix to this I would love to know what it is.

Has anyone gotten pushed the new market?

Has anyone actually gotten pushed the new market on an Ics build. I an not talking about the playstore update, I am talking about the update after that added tabs. I know the APK is out there, but I don't feel comfortable downloading random apks from media fire that have access to my credit card.

I have not but my wife did on her stock phone.

Easiest way:
Just delete the data from your Market app in Settings, and the next time you open your Market app normally, it'll update itself, straight from Google's servers.

It updates to the play market but not the tabbed play market. I suspect it is because I am on ics.

TB just issued an update to support it but they also left a note:
What's in this version:
• Supports Google Play Store 3.5.15. Please note: Play Store is capricious with Market links because it relies more on Google's servers. If you want more control we encourage you to ask Google. It's their app. Let them know the goal you want to achieve. Once they provide a way, we'll give you full control of it!
• Improved app backup code: supports APK files with non-standard names.
• [PRO] Added "Disable Market app Auto Updater".
• Speed optimization & minor GUI tweaks.
• Updated translations.

but your download link apk is installed and working fine! Stupid NBC
Thanks!

Thanks for the dropbox link worked like a charm on my SGS3, tested a video working great as stated can't test live until olympics start but don't see why live wouldn't work.

But the reviews aren't good. Seems as tho it doesn't 'just' work.

Thanks all! it works great

Guess that means people are reviewing without trying it or maybe they have an incompatible phone I can confirm the AT&T Galaxy S3 works.

On the app's page it states that "additional support for phones and tablets will be added". So I wouldn't be surprised if we see a fully compatable and optimized app before the Olympics.
EDIT: reinstalled from review horizon and now for some weird reason video works, oh well, as long as I can watch the Olympics

Play store just compatible the app with Nexus 7
uninstall the old one if you sideloaded, then re-download in Play store if you are on Nexus 7
and I dont know how to take the apk out,,,,,sorry

UPDATE: On my S2 (SGH-i777) running CM9 nightly (July 23) build (though I don't think it matters) I was able to get the Google Play Store to install the updated .apk:
Note: I had the previous version of Live Extra installed from the old .apk
1. Go into Google Play store and search for NBC Live Extra. It should take you to the app page that displays "Open" or "Uninstall".
2. Select "Uninstall". Message displays saying it wasn't installed from the Google Play Store, and asks if you want to uninstall anyway. Confirm that you want to uninstall.
3. After uninstall, the app page will show, displaying the blue Install button. Select Install, and it should d/l and install the updated (today) version. It's about 12.75 MB I think.
I'll try to post the updated apk later, if this site will let me post files that large.
One thing I didn't consider until now is that...maybe the app actually is compatible with the S2 i777 now, and I never knew until i uninstalled the old apk, in which case I really didn't figure out anything groundbreaking. I don't think that's the case though b/c Google Play wasn't offering to update my old Live Extra app when it was installed.

Inverted Google Now 2.0.5.443668

Here is the new Google Now Inverted with my touch of blue (really just blue text and some images LOL). Make a nandroid back up and then flash in CWM. If you have any problems delete your old quicksearchbox.apk from data/app or system/app and then flash my mod, enjoy!

Works, had to uninstall old app before flashing.

LOL I have been trying to theme this thing for days and it always force closed when trying the voice commands. I noticed when compiling before it was noticeably smaller by a few megs and when I did it this new way it seemed to work? I have made multiple edits this way and so far it works.

I was having trouble trying to install the apk files everyone has listed for ICS. This worked np after I uninstalled my previous version. Matches my inverted G+ now. Thanks a lot, looks great.

My previous worked flawless but I had to pull the tray down to see the card notifications, they never show up top for some reason.

I might be able to help here but the reason it force closes when trying to do a voice commands while app is in the system directory is because there's a lib file inside the apk that needs to be moved to system/lib then it should be all kosher

I've been using it over a month. I gives me weather and traffic info before leaving work and home. It also gives me game alerts for the Reds and previews for upcoming games. When I pull down my notification tray it will show I have a Gnow notification, and say 2 or 3 cards in the text in bottom right of the main notification if multiple. It's just that when the notifications appear there is nothing at the top of my phone. Currently I have a weather GNow card in my tray, but my notifications at top show only a G+ and Foursquare check in.

If the above doesn't work, you could try pushing all the files manually, then fixing the permissions. That's how I installed it, twice. Open up the .zip to see where all the files are to be placed. If there are any duplicates, replace them with the new, but save the old ones first to a labeled folder, of course. That's in case you want to go back.

I tried your link. I already had that Google now zip but I re downloaded and tried again. Flashed but still nothing happened... This is really annoying Idk why it's not working. I'm just on stock rooted rom from mobile Odin. I mean flashing other things work. I flashed a theme mod and it worked fine. Why is this not working!
I'm not sure how to push manually but ill try opening like you said and try to figure it out.

The meta INF folder isn't supposed to be pushed, that is a list of instuctions that places all the other files in their proper places when the zip is flashed in recovery. The velvet.apk is the most important part. I'm not sure what you mean by "couldn't install" it. If you tried using the Android installer, that would probably make sense as it doesn't always work with modded apk's. You would have to copy/past it into /system/app manually, first either copying the existing one to another location on your sd card or just leaving it where it is and renaming it "velvet.apk.bak". Then all of the files that you pushed have to have their permissions set correctly. Just follow what you already see for the various .apk's, files, and folders. Then you should reboot. Now before doing any of this (any changes at all) make a nandroid so if something goes really wrong you can restore back to where you were.
EDIT: I see you solved your problem. Good show!

In the new update the name of the google search apk change so most of the zips floating around for Google now havent updated to the new name so yes just deleting it will work untill the updater-script changes in the zips

So I have it installed but it says a new version is available in the play store. Obviously can't get it from the store but is there an updated version that works on our phone?

No, we on ICS just have to ignore that for now. Someone (a new dev) in the original thread claimed he could mod the updated version for us, but many are skeptical.
EDIT: What you can do is get the present GN to display your sports teams. Before the devs stopped working on this, an Aussie developer came real close to getting it working. What you can do is temporarily replace the velvet.apk and use the updated lib file. This will allow you to set teams. The problem with this version for me is that is was mute. I would not talk back no matter what plus it would force close every time I tapped "show more cards". So the thing to do is restore the original valve.apk after you've go your teams set (set every single team you are interested in before you restore the original velvet.apk) and that's it. They will always show up after that through a Titanium restore when you flash another ROM and you won't have to repeat this process again. The other way guys were doing this was to flash a Jelly Bean ROM, set their teams in GN, then flash back to ICS. This is a shortcut to that process. Unfortunately, the movie listings and emergency notifications available in the JB version of Google Now won't stick once you go back. I'll link you to the post. Incidentally, I pushed these manually too then fixed permissions. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31991861&postcount=5824

I wonder if I missed a version that allows that. I've followed the GN thread for quite some time and only the JB versions could allow adding sports teams. In our version the settings are there, but they don't work AFAIK. I'm keeping my eye on the new JB port by DocHoliday. As soon as he adds in WifiCalling Im going to flash it and enjoy all of GN. Or, flash the real thing if the rumor that T-Mob is releasing JB or Wednesday is true, lol.
