[Q] SGH-M919 stock apps .apks to use on CyanogenMod - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hey does anyone have the stock apks for the galaxy s4?. I recently got CyanogenMod but I hate its gallery, video player, and its phone dialer. Everything else is great but if anyone can give me the original samasumg apps for these apks and how to install Them. Please help

Here is a forum discussing this:
http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...anufacturers-apps-on-vanilla-roms-on-galaxy-s
The short answer is some apks will install and others won't.
You can get the apks easily by typing (for example s voice apk) into Google.

None of which you listed will work on CM or AOSP based roms. Theres very few that will work at all. Watch on I believe will work, and a very few select others. Apps like Phone, contacts, camera, gallery, etc etc that are actual part of the system, unlike watchon which is more of a 3rd party add on, will not work outside of touchwiz

[Q] samsung apks?

i just flashed the latest CM7 and it doesnt come with the samsung apps and i want them like the dialer and the camera app and and the contacts app and the task manager.
does anyone have a flashable zip of them?
They depend on touchwiz. They won't work on cm7.

I'm not sure what samsung apps were on the device other than their custom versions of the PIM apps like calendar. I like the calendar that is loaded with CM7 much better. I had thought about trying to restore the samsung apps app that was like a catalog of apps since I never really checked it out. But if everything in it needs touchwiz then it won't be of any use to me. Assuming it otherwise would be of any use to me.

[Q] Integrating Touchwiz and AOSP

I am trying to create a ROM for the SGH-T989D and I would like to use a combination of Touchwiz apps (dialer, contacts) and AOSP apps (mms, calendar). I was wondering if the apks can simply be put into the system/app folder or if special tweaking of the framework is required to get them to play nice with each other. I am starting from the Telus stock ICS ROM.
I would appreciate any help in this matter.

Some might play nicely. But you will most likely have to edit each apk to make them work. And if you're cooking a cm10 ROM, good luck. Since touch wiz is ics, and cm10 is jelly bean. You will have many issues with force closes and even the app installing

[Q] No apps after updating to jellybam, suggestions?

I recently upgraded to jellybam and noticed it was missing almost everything that I
needed to function with on a day to day basis and this is okay, except for some things.
I already looked allover XDA about this and noticed there really is not much on the topic
so I feel help is needed at this point.
What I am wondering the most is where is the video player...?
Also, the camera layout on jellybean sucks, is there anyway to change this?
Any help is appreciated!! Thank you
Well i guess the rom comes with lesser apps than a rom would from the factory. As for a video player i have super video and i'm sure theres a few other good ones. About the camera layout, i don't think you can change that.
Edit: And i am also running jellybam.
Did you update to a custom rom, or did you update through kies. Either way, when you updated you could have restored your phone through google and all your apps shoudl have re-downloaded onto your phone. if thats not the case, open up your play store, hit the menu button, and tap on my apps. after that you'll see a list of all the apps you've downloaded and you can re-download them.
as far as the camera on jellybean not being great, you could always flash a different camera onto your phone if you are rooted. 4.2 camera is super nice.
and i just started using MX player and its pretty nice. Free and has a lot of codecs.
In a lot of Roms you have to reflash "gapps" search XDA for latest version. It is all the Google apps.

The jellybam rom comes with gapps i think he's talking about some samsung native apps.
If you updated to a stock firmware you should get the GAPPS automatically now if you install a 3rd party ROM like AOKP or CyanogenMod you have to install GAPPS manually just Google it you can find lots of information on it online

Make the original AOSP keyboard work in Sense?

I don't want the "Jellybean Keyboards" from the market.
I want to pull an original Latin_IME keyboard (Clean AOSP keyboard) from an AOSP ROM and make it work on Sense.
But how do I do this?
I've tried it multiple times now and it's always "*Keyboard* has stopped working*.
Anyone have any ideas regarding this?
Thanks!
what's wrong with the one from play store?
It should work by normally installing the .apk file. If not, get it from Play Store.
The one from the Store doesn't have the same feel to it, it's sitting there in my app drawer, it's usually slow and sluggish, I just want the original.

[Q] Newly rooted S4, how to get built apps again

I just recently used the CyanogenMod to root my T-Mobile S4 and I just realized that I lost the navigation and S Voice features that were originally on it. Is there any good alternatives or a way to restore these features? Or even create a new ROM to switch between? I'm fairly new at this.

Can you not download Google Maps from Play Store? As for S-Voice I think it's a Touchwiz thing that also need other dependencies files to make it work. You could just try Google Now from Play Store to see if it work.

No there's no S-Voice but I think there's a voice search features. I haven't used CM ROM but I do believed S-Voice work only on TWz base ROM.
I could be wrong on that. Hopefully someone can verify.
If you're looking for a lot of the cooked-in "bloat" from samsung, you need a touchwiz based ROM as other users have suggested. You'll find a lot of those in the Android Development section of the forum. If they are touchwiz based, it'll say so in the original post. Be aware that AOSP and google play editions of kit kat are not going to have the Samsung apps like S Voice. Some developers strip out all of the TW apps for a cleaner experience and have a separate zip for all of those removed apps to flash if you want to add them back in. As to whether or not you can flash those apps and have them work appropriately in CM, you'll have to ask someone else. If you're really wanting those apps and aren't dedicated to CM, consider just switching ROMs - you may be happier with a different one. Don't be afraid to flash different ROMs to try out. Just make a backup with Titanium backup or a nandroid so that you'll still have all of your data.
You can download s voice if you look for s voice apk on Google.
