May be Try YourSelf

How? Explain pls.
I allready tried it the copy/paste way with setting permissions, it ended up by having NO SMS App.
Explain how to port it, and ill do it on my own.

You could try installing the app like any other app so it replaces the one in the system
Bear in mind that a lot of stock apps and functions aren't available on custom roms

I installed 4.1.1. Messaging App on the play store and it's for free, works like a charm and is now my main messaging app.

I think downloading it from playstore doesn't work, complains about compatibility. You can download it from www.whatsapp.com/download
Thanks guys, downloading JB now
The given link did not work for me when I tried today from my mobile. (but works with desktop pc). The link i used to install is to use the word android after the whatsapp domain to get this app installed.
Also make sure to turn on the setting to install apps from other souces to get it installed sucessfully
could any jelly bean users confirm if PlayStore actually allows whatspp already? or is it will under "incompatible", lazy to flash my rom to check it out.
hope you guys dont mind
Yeah pal, WhatsApp works fine on JB. I have CM10 and all apps work. If you use SwiftKey then install titanium backup, make a back up, uninstall and then re install. This is because you lose it when rebooting.

You have to do a manual install (www.whatsapp.com/download), it wont install from the play store.
And then you can use something like Easy Installer to install the .apk
Well I already tried some jb Roms and all were compatible with whatsapp, but I never installed it from play store, I always restored it with titanium...

Stock ICS/JB People.apk on SGNII, Is it possible?

hi,
as it's stated in the title, Is there any way to replace Samsung's contacts app with stock ICS/JB People app on our SGNII?
Thank you.
Similar question: Is it possible to get the stock ICS/JB messaging app on the SGNII?
I tried installing an mms.apk from an old CM10 rom I had for my sgs2 but it kept saying that it was replacing a system app and would fail, but when I looked in system/app I couldn't find another mms.apk
still waiting for an answer ...

For me ICS apps work well on JB. Must not be a problem.

[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.

I cant find this...
BUT, try TextSecure. It has a few extra features that you can ignore, its about as close as you can get to stock that im aware of.

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!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1966869
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.

Focal app for one v

Hi All,
I tried to find a way to install cm app for camera called focal. Unfortunately this is not as simple as I thought. Installing an app file in ordinary way gives force close while opening it.
Has anyone tried/test it? Would this work on other roms, like shpongle, android v 4.2.2? Or is it only for cm 4.3?
Wont work on shpongle for sure.... Rest u have to check.... Might work on 4.1.2....

Focal is still in Alpha and needs a lot of work still.
I was hoping that at least I could run it to check what CM guys have developed :/

[Q] Missing default messaging app

HI guys ,
I rooted my note 2 to get some tweaks going but instead i ended up losing my default messaging app. What happened was that i tried to install cyanogen-mod messaging app which didn't work so i decided to uninstall it , when i did that it somehow took my default messaging app with it which i do not understand at all. My question is if there is a way i could get it back ? Google didn't help much.

Try my copy. I overwrite all my ROM's stock messaging app with this one, always works for me.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/87523367/SecMms.apk
As you probably know, put in system/app with correct permissoins, install by clicking it through your root-enabled file manager.

The part where you said as you probably know is not quite true coz I installed the cyanogen mod messaging app through cyanogen mod install manager which is available at play store.The whole thing was a misunderstanding coz the messaging app doesnt really work on stock roms which I found out after the mess up. If you could write me the step by step to follow that'd be wonderful. Thnx for the reply pal
Regards
Appreciate the help but when i was trying to paste the other messaging apk file into the system/app folder it found the original messaging app there which i never thought to check , i know silly me.
Thnx tweeny and the rest
