[Q] Updating built in apps in JellyThunder "Blackout" RC3 [1/1/2013 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hello, I've been using the JellyThunder "Blackout" RC3 [1/1/2013 which comes with several built in apps such as google voice, youtube, etc. The problem is I cannot update them through the play store, it is giving me an error message asking me to uninstall the old ones first. I would appreciate any guidance.

It was a pain to deal with for me as well.
I used ES File Explorer to delete all the apps with updates (that Wouldn't update) from /System/Apps, then reboot, then it would let me install the updated version.

Is this a big issue with this rom? I'm on the fence on whether I should try this rom, it does look nice but would appreciate some input from experienced users.

[Q] Where can I download stock apps for custom roms?

Hello,
I have noticed some of the custom roms don't have all the stock apps. Is there a way or a link to download certain stock apps such as Calculator, Calendar, Voice Recorder, etc.
Thanks

This list was sent to me the other day to help me weed out apps and apks that I don't want. But it also has a link where you can download the apk files as well. Hope it helps.

Drop them in /system/app. In Root Explorer, make sure the OWNER is set to root for both dropdowns, and also change the permissions on them to the same as one of your APKs already in /system/app. I can't remember if you have to install them the normal way or not - I think a reboot is all you need.
That list needs to be updated for our S2. There are things like
DMSForwarding
DMSLawmo
GBA Service
Would love to know what those are for.

Google Navigation

Hi,
Is there a way to unlock google navigation outside the US?
thanks
There isn't an official way. Google for some reason doesn't let navigation work in many countries (including Greece that I live in).
With every update there is a modded apk around that enables worldwide navigation. Don't have it atm.The only drawback is that you have to find the apk with every new version in play store so that you have the latest changes.

First you need to root your Hox so you can delete the old maps from system /app. Then download the hack version her http://htcfanboys.com/download/rawdealer/?action=view&file=12523

I really don't think so . If you read the op in my thread
Quote : "After a lawyer representing google contacted me on G+ and then later call me and we had a little talk ,we came to the conclusion that I'm not going to spread anymore modified maps . I'm not going get on the wrong side off Google .. And I'm considering closing the thread"
So sorry but I don't wanna get fryed by Google.

Google play- how to stop it from updating

Firstly, how do you have 4.1.2!? Is that the leak you have?
And if you mean how do you stop the applications installed from the Play Store updating. You go into the Play Store > Menu > Settings > Auto-update apps > Uncheck.
If you mean the actual market its self, I have no idea.. But, they hardly ever release play store updates.
I flashed omega 7.1 I mean the actual market its self

Ah, then I'm clueless. The market rarely ever gets given an update, anyway. So it shouldn't make much of a difference?

You can try using lucky patcher. go to lucky patcher>google play store>custom patch>disable self updating>reboot.

Play Store V4

Google updated the Play Store to the latest version 4.0.25.
Attached is the apk that you can install and upgrade to the latest. :good: The update will run for any phone or tablet running Android 2.2 or better.
Enjoy :laugh:

New Play v4
old Play
So i think the new Play looks more like the old market than the old play.
I haven't used the new play so much, but the old one wasn't that fast, too. everytime i downloaded some updates lets say 4 the complete Desire stucks.
Install failed
I been trying to install the new google play for over an hour and every time it fails any ideas i removed the old version.

Copy the apk in /system/app, set its permissions to match the other apps in that folder, then reboot.
Play Store 4.0.26
md5: 0991490d2d600504ccd771dff60cc886
use an app like systemcleanup to move play store back to system/app, or do it manually with root filer explorer as above.
tested and seems to work fine (still nothing under categories here in UK as expected, yet to fully roll out, but otherwise everything works fine). clear app data and cache if it throws up errors.

Agreed and I'm nog very fond of it. Ever since they changed it to play in stead of market...

Here is an updated version. 4.0.27. Works much better for me. :good:
thanks will we get the update automaticaly?? because i have now 4.0.25 and that was updated by it selfe

mh the play store updated it selfe to 27 but now it allways crashes someone an idea?? i'm using RSK v8.0 with Sense 5 Theme pack
Play Store 4.1.6 if anyone wants it
md5: 9d6e7a4691c335e476211afe33a8cc8e
as above, use an app like systemcleanup to move play store back to system/app, or do it manually with root file explorer and change permissions
thx.

the changes aren't that major, mainly cosmetic as far as i can tell and from initial 'reviews'
very easy to install the apk just to have a look though. if you're still having it crashing, try clearing data and cache of play store in manage apps.

OnePlus Launcher with google feeds enabled

Hey, guys, I just wanted to share my launcher apk mod which I made yesterday by referring to this post. I have used the latest available apk for this https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/onepl...launcher-2-4-1-0-191024180113-6e0804c-release.
Steps :
-> Download the attached zip and flash it with magisk.
You have made me a happy person thank you [emoji1787] for building this.. Fails to install on my device any prerequisites before installing?

Added the magisk module for this. Try flashing that.
You built this with the same package name as the original OPLauncher, so it won't install over the existing one due to signature mismatch.

yup updated the thread with a magisk module.
Is it possible to get this working without need for magisk just by changing the signature so that it is installed as a second launcher?
Sorry, I can't find how to change the shelf screen... I haven't been able to use Google feed. Thanks in advance
Make sure to uninstall any updates for one plus launcher from play store and turn off the auto updates. Then long press one homescreen and go to settings.....left most screen.
delete
This might be a dumb question but is it possible to get the search bar into the dock like pixel launcher? Asking for a friend...
Using a dark theme causes this abnormal look on hold down menus and the settings screen. Other than that it's working awesome thanks again.
