I've searched, and I can't figure out why when I put the tw calculator in the /system/app folder and fix permissions that the program wont show up in the app drawer or anywhere else. Can someone help me?
forgot to mention that I did have it mounted rw as well. Just as a side note, I deleted the stock ugly calc that came with Eugene's FrankinWiz and was trying to put the original TW Calc back in. No matter what I do I can't get it to show up in the app drawer, etc.
I know it's a noob question but can anyone help?

Are you putting both the stock tw calendar .apk AND the .odex file in system/app and rebooting?
I put a step by step for replacing the stock calendar in the general sticky thread, perhaps try there?
So I need to push the odex file too? Would this work for all share and the office app as well? I'm trying to get them back into frankenwiz.
I did read your sticky post about calendar, calculator seems different.

Ahh, just realized you said calculator, and not calendar. I know nothing of Eugene's rom, but if there is a .odex, and I asssume there is then yet, it too would need to be put in system/app
Or you could just pull deodexed apk's of the apps you want from the deodexed rom in the bible sticky in the dev section. Thats what I did for eugenes vibrant9 for allshare, works well. I haven't tried it with frankenwiz though.

How would deodexed make it easier? Does it push the same or?
Sent from my Vibrant. Most errors courtesy of Swype.
Because eugenes roms are deodexed. I personally dont know but im sure some dev could explain, but when I try copying a odexed apk and odex file to system/app it never shows up in the app drawer, but the deodexed apk alone will. Just try it.

Thanks for the help. I got everything into the FrankinTwiz except for allshare. I believe it's dlna.apk but pushing it doesn't put it in the app drawer.
Anyone have any luck getting allshare to work with FW?

So I have seen many people asking for the original stock .apk's that they have accidentally have deleted playing with Root Explorer or for whatever reason. I have pulled the whole "/system/app/" files off of my phone, but not sure if this is all of them or if they are going to work.
I am going to be posting of few up here so please let me know if they work.
Also, if you are in need of a stock .apk, please feel free to post what one/s you need.
Also, please feel free to add any stock .apk's anyone you have as well.

I have been trying to find the Vibrant's stock Alarms and Clocks apk. It doesn't seem to be included in the zip. Does anyone have any idea where I can find this?

Note: If you are trying to re-install these on the stock rom you need the .apk and the .odex file if it has one.
Here is the link to the entire system dump that has all the stock apps:

Thank you very much. I have something to do when I get home now
Ive been trying to install memo.apk on the Vibrant6 rom and the app never shows in drawer and when I copy over the odex file. When I reboot my phone loads up gets to the Samsung S and then everything goes black, but the bottom buttons will light up luckly I can pull the battery and reload my Nandroid backup.
/system/app/
I've been using Root Explorer and Su File manager with no luck.
I'm starting to feel a bit stupid here. I at first made sure the permissions of the files where the same as the files in /system/app with no luck.

Any luck on this? I'm trying to do the same thing but the memo and the calculator but no luck.
Is it possible to install the memo.apk on an evo? I really like that application and I haven't seen anything quite as nice as it.
Anyone have the mobitv apk? I can only find the captivate version.

I tried downloading from the first links to the apps and from yours. I have both the original Musicplayer.apk and .odex files in the /sdcard/ folder but the application does not install. I'm on ASOPish 1.1 Froyo.UVJK2.
What I'm trying to get from that app is the feature it has that it enables you to listen to the call from whatever is plugged into the 1/8 jack - in this case, earphones or my aux jack in the car, which was very handy for handsfree calling on the road.

Memo.apk on Bionix V
I'm trying to get the Memo.apk to install on my Vibrant with Bionix V. Can anyone help?
EDIT: NVM I got the correct memo.apk from the Bionix V thread!
I'll post the apk below.
Would anyone be able to deodex the official ji6 update and package it into a flashable zip?
I'm new to this, but I tried using xultimate. It doedexed the system/app and the system/framework
But I didnt know how to get them installed, so I copied them over one by one using root explorer after deleting the odex files.
For the most part everything worked, I even got the stock lockscreen to work by copying over the android.policy.jar from eugene373s thread, but 3 things bugged me. It constantly took 5 minutes to boot up. But thats not one of the bugs. The battery icon was completely gone. The market would load, but nothing could be downloaded, and the camera would fc without even opening.
I nandroided back in the meantime.
If anyone could do this or help me do it myself i'd appreciate it.

Good One
I also would like this. I prefer making my own changes to my phone. All I want is the deodexed, nothing else.
thanks!
Hi all - I've flashed the Super Clean ROM v0.4 by jt1134, but I'm finding that I much preferred the stock music player, and noticed a lack of "ThinkFree Office" in this release, which got me to thinking;
Is there a place to download optimized, deodexed, zipaligned, [insert optimization buzzword here] apks for every one of the stock apps that were included with the Fascinate? Something we can just adb push onto our customized ROMs after the fact?
Again, I'm thinking mostly of the music app and ThinkFree office (I know I can download a free version... was the stock app the for-pay version, or was it the free "lite" version?), but I know that some people also like the stock mms app, etc.
Thanks!

I was just going to start looking for the deodexed system dump. I, too, miss the stock music player. Anyone got a link, and will it work with JT's rom? And how should we install it? Using a file manager, pushing it with adb, or putting it somewhere with root explorer?
I need this ro try and push the stock market app. The froyo update won't download apps.

Or you can DeOdex your system manually I have used this method and it works, Only exception is at step "5. IMPORTANT: After you have run option 3, you MUST navigate to the xUltimate folder and find "origi_frame" folder, and delete "vzwlbs.odex" (instead of this file that does not exist on a Fascinate - "guava.odex".) It's a bad file, and interferes with deodexing process."
I was actually going to request the stock calender apk. The samsung one looks better but takes away too much functionality. I guess they really do like apple haha. I need to know what's next on my schedule without remembering to look for it.
Jt has been slowly adding some of the stock apps as well as some of the AOSP apps to the "extra" folder in ROM manager. I'm guessing if there is enough interest in adding an app he would be willing to provide it. I'm fairly certain that donations to his "beer fund" would help prompt interest.
Jt hangs out in #Samsung-fascinate on freenode a lot, you could *politely* request that he add an app there.
i copied ClockPackage.apk and Mms.apk from frost's rom to /system/app and it all worked. I got back stock versions of both, I believe if you rename DeskClock.apk to DeskClock.apk.bck or delete it you can remove altogether JT's clock.
I wonder where the Verizon stuff is, like the info app that shows you minutes/texts/data used.

I'd like this app as well, if you're able to get it working. I'd try it myself, but I'm at work ATM.
I think its this "I500_MyVerizon_05202010.apk" I saw it in the full system dump. However that dump is not deodexed and from original release. don't know if it would work and don't wanna screw up my system.
You should be able to grab them from a system dump.
The fascinate stock apps that are not included in frosty's zip were never odexed in the first place.
The way frosty's zip to deodex works is by removing the odex files, and replacing the corresponding apk with the deodexed versions.
Can you just take the apk from the dump and install it? I need thinkfree back as well. Does this work or do you have to get the apk and odex file from the dump and paste into the system/app folder?
I remember having a deodexed rom on my D1 and installing apps from the market with no problems. Can I just add the apk to my sdcard and install?
Thanks
I would just copy them to system/app
I do not know if any of them are actually installable if you just run, them on your phone.
If it doesn't have an odex in the system dump, it probably doesn't need one.
I like the file manager "my files" that comes with the stock rom. I might get heat for this, but its nice to have that already installed and or a zip to install via clockwork for other roms.

Would someone be so kinda and send me their "contacts.apk" from their "/system/app" folder? I got delete happy tonight when doing a conversion from touchwiz launcher to GoEX and deleted contacts without realizing that besides showing contacts it also has system calls as well, LOL.
I can still use my phone, and using GoContacts I have a functional dialer / contact viewer, but there is a few little annoyances by not having the stock contact.apk file installed.
To get the file as long as your rooted, just browse to / system / app and you'll see the .apk
Thanks for the help
I don't think I can because I am not rooted, but I'll bump for you. Good luck
There are a few contacts.apk files in the Themes/Apps sub-forum. Damn XDA app keeps FCing on me every time I try to copy the URL so you have to look yourself, but they're there.
if you still need it have all the stock apks from my phone saved just incase this happened to me......
let me know
I don`t like at all the all black background and UI fo the TW email app so I would like to replace the email app from ICS/ JB stock ROM with the stock Google one.
How can I do it and do you have the stock apps to share?

I agree and have been looking for the mail.apk that comes with JB, im assuming you replace the original crappy Sammy one with the apk using a root explorer type app.
The black and white of the Samsung app is just not readable in my opinion; the stock JB is great
yes you can change it through root explorer or es explorer, you can find the apk of the email for ics or jb, then you have to replace also the exchange.apk as if it supports the stock android apps. make sure you fix the permissions too. I'm using stock as I hate the sammy mail
Ok i've uploaded them for you,
Make sure to backup the exchange.apk and mail.apk
use a root file explorer,
/system/app/
Place them their and make sure you fix the permissions.
thanks. are they ICS or JB?
I zipped the original ones with root explorer then deleted and pasted the new ones. but before I could set permissions my phone froze completely and I cannot do anything more now.
any advice?
They are ICS, but they are almost exactly the same as the JB,
you need to replace them after backing up, make sure that you set the permissions the same as every other apk in the system/app/ folder, after you finish everything restart your phone and it should work perfectly, if anything doesnt work perfectly, then go to recovery and go to fix permissions, it should sort everything out.
