Stock ICS Email App for S3

So I came from the HTC One X to the S3 and it's been a great phone so far. However, the email font size is too big for me and the app isn't so great. So I have been using the stock ICS Email app for a few days now and it's been 100% stable.
If you want an awesome app with Microsoft Exchange, this is for you! I personally have 5 Microsoft Exchange accounts setup with zero issues.
To install the Stock ICS Email app:
1. Root your phone! Clear/Remove ALL email accounts/settings!
2. Download attached EmailGoogle.apk and ExchangeGoogle.apk
3. Install ES File Explorer and under Root settings, enable Root Explorer and Mount File System.
4. Go to System/App and remove: Exchange.apk, Exchange.odex, SecEmail.apk, and SecEmail.odex then reboot!
5. Optional: Remove Gmail.apk
6. Drop EmailGoogle.apk and ExchangeGoogle.apk into the System/App folder and reboot!
7. Setup your Exchange accounts and enjoy!

I recommend not using the Gmail email app and just setup your Gmail via Microsoft Exchange and add it to the stock ICS Email app. But if your contacts are with Gmail, then maybe you shouldn't unless you know how to config it separately.

are you having any issues with exchange meeting invites not displaying the meeting times? I get a accept/decline option but it doesn't display the date/time which is annoying. you can accept the invite and then check the date/time on the calendar. I'm currently running aokp for the att s3 which appears to use the default ics email client. thought I would ask before trying the one you posted.
I searched and it looks like a lot of nexus ics users also had this issue. a co-workers nexus running jb displays everything correctly.

Got this done so thanks! I did have some errors but after clearing the application data and setting up the account again it seems to have fixed things other than I show I have one message on the shortcut but nothing is there. Any ideas?
I'm going to let it cycle once by itself to see if it clears up on its own but I'm doubtful.

You mean badges? Stock ICS apps don't have badges
Thanks for reminding me. I edited the post.
Before you move forward, you must clear/remove all of your emails!
Messages you do not, but it wouldn't hurt. I don't though.

Thanks....will try this later today

So does the s3 tw motion control work with stock ics email and messaging apps? Like double tap to top and direct call?

I'm not sure what's putting it there but the icon is definitely getting updated with a message count - even when no messages are there. I used Desktop Visualizer to create a shortcut using a different icon (internet) and it still got the post count added to it. See the attached image for what I'm talking about.
Maybe I'll move the versions from my Nexus over the the S3 and see what happens.
ETA: It must be TW that's adding it because if I fire up Nova and add it the message count isn't there.

Make sure you have Exchange.apk, Exchange.odex, SecEmail.apk, and SecEmail.odex removed. Maybe it's an Exchange badge?

I renamed them by adding a ".sav" to the filename so they shouldn't be impacting things. I'm thinking of updating my Nova launcher to the paid version to see if it behaves the same as TW since it supports badges too.
The only other issue, and I think I had this on my Nexus as well, is that sometimes when I open the app it shows "Loading" and stays there. A reload makes it work properly. Curious.

Hi,
the inverted gapps+extras you have made available here are great looking and very good for saving battery. Besides, the aroma installer is super user friendly. It's hard to believe how easy and painless your inverted apps can be flashed. BTW, 3.2.5 works perfectly on CM10.
Thanks!!!!!!

I like the large selection of inverted apps, but I also like the aroma installer so I can choose what I want to install without a lot of fuss. Probably the best part is how quickly apps are themed after updates.

Multiple reasons
1.) Because you make it convenient for the user, by working with mrRobinson to make the awesome aroma installer where we can select individual apps that fit our interest or by flashing everything all together. When I was on ICS i got my inverted apps from rootzwiki and I had to flash each one one by one and the themer didn't take user input into account, he just did what he wanted. You take feed back into consideration and thats a huge deal for a successful package.
2.) You strive to make this work on all the JB devises. Other themers just make sure it works on their current platform.
3.) You partnered with an awesome themer TUN_SD, his work is by far the best. And you guys always try to keep up to date with the latest releases.
Keep up the great work. Google needs to hire you guys so that inverted apps get released by default. :highfive:

Your inverted apps package was the first one I stumbled on when I got my new phone and decided to flash CM10, just glad I happened to randomly find the best. To echo prior sentiments: Everything works great, any minor issues are addressed quickly, updates happen rapidly, and the option to flash the entire package or use aroma is very nice. :good: Inverted exchange email client, gmail and reader are the specific killer apps for me.

I had the same issue with exchange. I couldnt get it to work for me either. Maybe the wrong version? I was able to get my old "Exchange Services V 5.0" working again but it was a struggle.
A little something for you Justin for your help anyways.

No such luck. I froze and untinstalled in TiBu, and went into recovery and flashed. Same issue.

Hey justin,
Are you manually inverting each app's xml and drawables, or, have you automated most of the process to make turnaround faster when there's code updates from Google (well, updated gapps actually)?
(EDIT: I should've posted this in the other, bigger thread, but oh well - not going to double-post.)

I tried your exchange fix and it does not seem to change the issue. I am on cm10 7-25 and KT's job kernel. I see it changed exchange from version 5 to 4.1. Thanks for this package and the help.

I'm going to just remove it from the zip I really want to try and troubleshoot this but I cannot replicate because I do not have an exchange email but first please try setting permissions in the exchange app

I'm going to completely remove that application so all you have to do is wipe cache and dilvk and re install the rom then you can install my justinbean then all should be well.

Thank you sbrissen for developing for this awesome device and all of our donaters who made it possible! None of this would have happened without you guys
You will lose S Pen and other Touchwiz functionality if you flash this but here is how you can get some of that functionality back! Thanks weehooherod2 for his tips!
weehooherod2 said:
1. S Pen works (try out the app Papyrus as a replacement to S Note, Papyrus does utilize the S Pen button as well).
2. Air View works (Go to settings, Language & input, check "Show icon when using stylus".
3. The S Pen button works (Go to settings, Language & input, Stylus gestures, those all use the s pen button).
4. Pop up browser = OverSkreen from the Google Play Store.
5. I use the 4.2 Camera on Touchwiz anyway. There are plenty of good camera apps in the market if you want more features.
6. Multiwindow, I don't know of an alternative. Onskreen's Cornerstone could surely do it!

I'm going to try this fix for A2DP
Code:
Looks like sample rate is missing in the at a2dp line in the "audio_policy.conf"(/etc) line "sampling_rates 48000" and the 44100 needs to added before the 48000 with this "|" symbol and it should look like this "sampling_rates 44100|48000".
After changing the sampling rate reboot your device in order for it to take effect.
Edit file with root explorer text editor.
Before:
sampling_rates 48000
After:
sampling_rates 44100
Will report results

Initial notes...
- Keep getting FC on AOSP keyboard, leaving me unable to do anything requiring a keyboard (like signing into my Google account). Got around this by installing apk of 3rd party keyboard
- Can't get camera to connect at all. ("Couldn't connect to camera")
- MTP doesn't work, but I was able to mount my SD card as Mass Storage
- Added my Google account, but I got a FC for "Google Account Manager"... the account was added but it won't sync
- Since Google account is having sync issues, cannot connect to Play Store either ("Error retrieving information from server. [RH-01]")
- Data worked when downloading a language pack for SwiftKey, but doesn't seem to work with Google's servers
- Home button doesn't work
- Was able to get GMail to sync successfully... seems that the Play Store and Calendar are stuck
This is running very smoothly otherwise. Thanks for the quick turn-around!
Also.. I know this is in alpha and I'm not complaining about these bugs above in any way... just bringing them to attention to help with the bug catching process.

Good Looking out

Hmm, I restored from a backup and it seems to have wiped my sd card. I got an "SD Card damage notification" in the status bar and the only way to fix it was to format the card. Oh well, you pay to play. Might not happen to everyone but it might be a good idea to backup your internal and external memory going forward.

[ROM][4.1.2][Kernel]GWIZ

WELCOME
To
GWIZ
TouchWiz...Hacked and Googlized
​
GWIZ uses the T-989 4.1.2 T-Mobile Jelly Bean final update as a base. The project's purpose is to offer extra functions and better looks over stock while maintaining maximum stability, while increasing speed and battery life.
Also Aesthetics have been considered and vastly improved over stock.
Summary: Going for it all here, aesthetics, speed, battery, extra functions, updated kernel and ROM provide an improved look and 'feel'. For this project I have used the GoogleGallery and camera as well as the GoogleLauncher and adding back the `clear` button on Notification panel return to the extra toggles features, flashlight, reboot menu etc etc. ​Features:
Google launcher
NO ADDS
VOL WAKE
FOURWAY REBOOT
23 TOGGLES
CUSTOMIZABLE BOOTANIMATION
NEXUS KITKAT UI SOUNDS
DEBLOATED
CSC TWEAKS
Theme work returned the clear button, =] that was fun and a ton of digging for days. now the blue bars are gone and full function returned...
Much more that I didn't forget.
Xtra Functions
BLN a.k.a. back lighting notification.
ScreenShot on statusbar
PowerButton on status bar. uses = tap to lock the device or hold it down to pull up the reboot menu
overclockable kernel to 2.3ghz... is that an extra function? close enough
Long-Press Menu2Kill app

WIPE the following partitions in TWRP recovery ====> /system /data/ /cache/ dalvik cache/ /preload/ everything but internal and external sdcards... unless you want to wipe those as well then go right ahead.. also wiping everything is a good way to start over if coming from builds of another source.
2. Install ROM from /sdcard/ aka internal /sdcard/
3. After flashing completes, reboot
4. LET IT SIT A FEW MINUTES
5. Sign in to WI-Fi if available, then sign into your Google account
6. Choose Google launcher when prompted pick "Always" then "OK"
7. open play store and allow Google search and keep to update...
8. reboot.. if Google store seems stuck it is updating... just hold tight or press menu and hold to kill PlayStore then enter it again a few moments later. Remember to Reboot.

BUGS:
1. FC While using GoogleCamera in video mode and tap screen.. Instead of taking a still shot it force closes. This is not my bug so to speak its well documented on the XDA threads
2. While its not a bug really, but mentionable, before the Google launcher is properly integrated with Google Search, a few apps need to update through the playstore...

I assume this is deodexed?
Rushing, were you able to fix the flashlight toggle delay with this ROM?

Click to expand...

nope I tried again just like I always do and nothing I can compute.
Its deodexed.. for this ROM you can just delete the odex files and theme away... I noticed that the md5 sums stayed the same for the .apk part after odexing.. meaning the original app didnt change a bit so just delete the odex part and theme.
just rebuilt the app triple checked it referenced with wanam's guide for Toggles and same result everything worked but after using the flashlight it lagged about 10 secs before becoming responsive.
I have taken logcats of the occurances and have presented them to wanam 's thread or guide to see if anyone can help. its beyond my knowledge at this point and no book to read that I have found,
anyone that wants to help the Flashlight project chime in and or give it a try.

I've noticed the flashlight toggle lag issue with other ROMs as well. The only one which did not have the issue was your JellyBean Odexed 3 ROM. What a mystery haha.

Oh really! I didnt realize that thanks ill look into why maybe that one works better.
I dont beleive I put toggles in that one at all.
Maybe I was thinking of the wrong one. I dl*d. Jellybeast odexed 3.zip
And no toggles but a flashlight app in that rom by tesla
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I think the only difference with that Jelly Odexed 3 ROM was that the toggles weren't customizable. Can't change the order, can't remove or add certain toggles. They were all there. So maybe it was from a different source?

I use the toggled flashlight daily.
anyway all is well I guess no complaints or bugs yet.. Bueno

Calender is not working and I'm getting sync errors. Any ideas

use google calendar delete stock ..thanks for the feedback I will delete calendar and rebuild

So far the ROM seems great, fast and stable. I really like the customizations you've done to it. I know this has already been mentioned but my only gripe is the flashlight toggle lag, especially turning it off. That said, the original stock ROM didn't even have a flashlight toggle (thanks Samsung).

downloading now... is the calendar sync fixed? I like the stock calendar better than google... specially the monthly view... in google calendar it does not show the details. I will be flashing Gwiz shortly, I have been running shadow xtr3me until now and it is starting to slow down... thanks!!

Tried to download the Google calendar.. It won't find my calender just spins. Anyone else get the sync errors under the Google account in settings?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

One other problem I've found, the built in email client does not work with Hotmail. The stock Samsung one does automatically. Seems to be the stock client in this ROM but I can't get Hotmail working automatically or by manually configuring.

Just flashed and really love it so far! Thanks for your work! Couple questions/issues:
I chose google launcher and removed most of the autogenerated shortcuts on the home screens and now have just 2 screens. Id like to add another home screen for media, how do I do that? Forgive me if this is a silly question.
Also, I seem to be going back and forth from 3g to H+ waaayy more than before. Any idea why this is? Seems to actually prefer 3g but im in Chicago and have always used H+ without trouble.
I don't have a stock calendar so I downloaded Google calendar and it wont sync with my google account. When I click "calenders to sync" it says loading, but nothing happens. Ideas?
The stock email app doesn't work for my corporate account, it force closes. Should I remove it and try to add it again???
Every time I restart, its says "android is upgrading...." ideas??
What do all of the icons represent in the toggle section of notification pane.
Thanks so much for your time.....

To add another home screen simply drag an icon or widget to the right side, it will create another screen.
I seem to have the same problem switching way too much between 3G and H+, killing the battery quicker.
The stock e-mail app doesn't work properly for me either, hopefully this gets fixed.
I also get the "Android is upgrading" every time I reboot, any ideas dev?

I tried dragging the icon over and it just wouldn't work. I can add a widget to the other page but then when I take it away the page leaves as well.
I think I may have gotten a bad flash. It was the first time that I flashed a ROM on this phone. I suppose I will try again tomorrow. Thank you for your reply and keep in touch. I will update on any results that I have.
ETA:
some of the posts are really old for this device, what is the best way to wipe the device clean and start fresh with a new install? I'm using twrp 2.4..... thanks in advance.
ETA2:
So i triple wiped everything and restore my backup through twrp. Triple wiped again and re-flashed gwiz... let it sit for 10 minutes. I have been auto signed in since ive been flashing so....Updated relevant apps through store and let it sit for 10 minutes. Rebooted. Let sit 10 minutes. Things i noticed:
1:
Still cant drag icon over to set up another homescreen.
2:
Corporate email now works!!???
3:
Data connectivity is still an issue. I can see it bouncing between 3g and H+. it takes longer to send sms. Also, i havent mentioned it yet but when i try to place a call, i get a recorded message from tmobile... something about cant be completed. Tried all the options in settings, no joy.....

Yeah I noticed the same the actions.. Google is smart.

What is it that you did to try and fix it??
Look fellas this is old alphabet soup, the same letters are floating around in the bowl. just pull from the bottom and give to the top... Meaning fix it with some new stuffs. I know its hard to figure out what it is that works and doesn't.. that is what i am doing right now so try some new stuff like getting root explorer and dropping some apps in to fill in the blanks... what I gotta spell it out? you gotta read between the lines. expect perfect a little ways down the way this was just the alpha build with no number. -=]
here is a fix for now well its a possible fix I think you all will like it.

Google Stock Dialer/Contacts apks

Here's the stock google dialer and contacts app I pulled from my nexus 6 when i had it. It's not the motorola framework dialer and contacts, but pure google stock. They are in separate folders. I've also have a few that I've pulled from the web as well. I hate the ugly skin that lg uses, and miss the true material look from Google.
You HAVE to be rooted for these to even remotely work. Use root explorer or whatever app you use, mount rw and install as system apk (go to system>priv-app). Folder will need rwxr-xr-x permissions. Give app r-r-rw permissions. So far, contacts are working and I've gotten the google in-call ui to work by placing the apk in the lg in-call ui after renaming the original lg-ui. Can't get the dialer to install. LG skin is deeply rooted in thier framework, so it's kind of a pain. I'll keep digging into this to make some progress. In the mean time, if anyone else wants to chip in and help out, please do so.
In the link to my drive folder there will be 4 files. One of them is a flashable zip named GoogleContactsDialer (credits to whoever put this zip together. Wasn't me). Another should be the dialer in non flashable zip, and the other files are the respective standalone apks. I would suggest flashing the flashable zip, as it has the libs folder included.
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0Byd-3B8ICYfpY1hqODhhMzd4S3M&usp=sharing
**UPDATE**
Ok everyone, I have a quick second to give an update (getting up at 0430 is killing me right now lol) on things in reference to the dialer. Make sure you are using the flashable zip. The separate apks are ok, but the zip makes things easier.
Basically most hassle free method I have used to get it to be the primary dialer and contacts app is by using TB to freeze these 2 LG Dialer and Contact applications that are listed below.
*Call 4.60.79.10
*Contacts 4.56.18
I'm using KLWP and Nova for most of my homescreens. I'm linking the Google dialer apk to whatever phone KLWP icon using Nova Activities>Google Dialer>Phone(com.android.dialer.DialtactsActivity; make sure you select this one). For those that use Zooper, the same method would apply.
In reference to getting the dialer icon to show up in the app drawer on its own, I'm still working on that.

Glad it worked for you. I used the flashable zip, but can't get the dialer to install. What did you to get it running? The contacts app works for me, but like you said the LG UI takes control sometimes. I may remove the LG call/contacts apks and see if google will run by default. Of course, I'll back everything up before I do.

What launcher are you using? I'm using the Google launcher with xposed. I also downloaded nova to use the activities widget to set the Google dialer.

Sorry guys that I've been MIA. Work and personal life have been really busy. I didn't remove the LG apk but just froze them with TB. So far the LG Contacts app doesn't override which is good, and I've set Google Contacts as my default. I'm trying True Caller but honestly don't like it. The Google dialer kicks in but it's random, and it doesn't show in my Nova app drawer. I'll get back to working on this when things slow down for me.

I am, for now, stuck at the dialer. Not enough time to play with it and, as you mentioned, it is not showing up as an installed app in the launcher. What did you do to get a launcher icon for it? I am running the latest Nova beta for now.

I wonder if one you that's had success with this might be able to offer some assistance...I flashed the Google contacts and dialer zip and froze the two LG files recommended by the OP and all call functionality was disabled. I could launch the Google dialer but could not receive calls. Did I miss a step?

Like you said, it is working - mostly. I no longer see the dreaded LG dialer (yippee!) but a couple of minor anomalies remain.
On an incoming call I do not get a full scree caller id and swipe to answer as I did on the N4 device;
Like you, I had to use Nova to create the desktop icon (which is no big deal I suppose);
When I bring up the dialer I see a "Speed Dial" tab but I don't see all my favorites (starred contacts). I tried clearing cache and data for the dialer but is not showing me the same starred contacts as the Contacts app;
Other than the above it seems to work quite well.
[ EDIT ] It seems that there is a difference between the contacts storage that LG maintains and what Google Contacts/Dialer maintains. I cleared data and cache for both, the LG Dialer and the LG Contacts app - note that in my case they were both frozen so I had to use ROM Toolbox to do this - and had the system re-sync contacts with Google. All of the sudden ALL my favorites show up as expected and, incoming caller Id is now displaying as it did on the old Nexus 4. Yippee! Apparently some minor issues can be corrected by reinitializing the contacts database on the phone.

Did you start out with a clean, well working system or could it have remnants of previous attempts to install a dialer? Most of my troubles came from the fact that I missed to clean somethng up from a previous attempt.
Essentially, I did not do much different from the OP. Starting with a clean system (I backup frequently with TWRP when I experiment with new things!) I flashed the zip file, rebooted, created the desktop icon for phone, froze the 2 LG modules with TiBu. I also copied the Google Dialer apk to the LGInCallUI folder in priv-app and renamed (but not deleted) the LG version which did not seem to make any difference to usage (I was hoping for a full screen caller Id).
As noted above, it seems to be working quite nicely with the 3 1 caveats I listed.
