Wii Controller on Stock Rom ? - G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know it works on Vegan (and apparently not TnT), but what about stock? Everything works except enabling WiiController IME.

Yes, I believe I remember it working when I first got the device.
So you mention that TnT Lite doesn't support the Wiimote? That's a burn. Where did u read it? I've been trying to make it work for the past 3 days... argh

Not sure if it makes a difference, but I'm using TnT Lite 4.4.0 and I had trouble installing the WiiController IME as well.
The solution that worked for me was posted somewhere around the boards, maybe in the WiimoteController thread [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=672884 ]. It was to use an app like RootExplorer to change the permission and then copy the .apk into the /system/apps folder.
*edit* To be more specific, copy the .apk from the /data/apps folder to the /system/apps folder. And remember to reboot the device for it to show up.

Maybe it's because I'm using TNT-Enhanced (instead of TNT-Lite) but WiimoteController still crashes running from the system/app folder.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
you don't rename it.
on computer you extract it, go into system and you see the apk
it won't let you install on phone by just clicking
put on sd card
go to astro, or root manager
move the memo.apk to system/app
done.
you need to extract the folder with winrar winzip whatever then there is a folder with the apk in it. copy it over to your phone under downloads or where ever you want to put it. then install.
edit: just did all that i said and when i tried to install the apk it says "application not installed"
just did what u said, even rebooted, and still don't see it

read the post above.
you have to move the .apk to system/apps
because memo isn't a regular app.
got the same thing. used astro, place the apk in system/apps. nothing happened. rebooted, still nothing. then even tried using the app manager in astro to install it and it says "there is a problem parsing the package"

I've tried this with MIUI (1.7.22) on a SGS Captivate with no success. I have flashed many roms and installed/sideloaded many apps over the past 10 months. I know I'm doing it right, as I have 'installed' other system apps by moving the apk to /system/apps and fixing permissions and ownership. Has this worked for anyone on a MIUI ROM?
Another related question would be - is there a way to export the notes from the stock memo.apk?

[Q] installed app. app disapeared. cant reinstall

ok.... I have Samsung Fascinate.
PWGB2.0 beta3 ROM
I found the zip containing on here(XDA) somewhere containing the BuddiesNow app for my phone and installed it. I then found the BuddiesNow for Vibrant tweaked for the Fascinate. I went to /system/app and located my BuddiesNow I had placed in there 1st and renamed it .bak
I then placed the Vibrant BuddiesNow app in the /system/app folder.
It worked great. I discovered I liked the Vibrant BuddiesNow app much better.
*************
ok... now my issue. I picked my phone up ealier this week and went to use my Vibrant BuddiesNow app and it was gone. I then long pressed the blank screen and pressed Widgets from the list that popped up. I scroll thru the list and BuddiesNow does not show up in the list.
I then open my file manager and navigate to /system/app folder and BuddiesNow is not in there. Not even the .bak file version.
I then go to my SDcard and find the copy of the Vibrant BuddiesNow app I had originally stored in a folder there and tried to copy it to the /system/app folder. The error message pops up saying that the file already exist and cant paste the file here.
I then booted into recovery, tried wiping partition cache and dalvik cache.
That did not help any. Got same result when I tried to move the file to /system/app folder again.
I then thought I would be cleaver and rename the Vibrant BuddiesNow in my SDcard folder to [BuddiesNow.apk.grid] and then move it to the /system/app folder. AND THEN AFTER PLACING IN THE /system/app FOLDER, RENAME IT TO .APK
That did not work either! It also diappeared.... now I have BuddiesNow.apk,
BuddiesNow.apk.bak, BuddiesNow.apk.grid, all in the /system/app folder and all invisible.
I had the file manager settings to SHOW HIDDEN FILES from the beginning.
I also have tried the SEARCH function in the file manager but it shows no results. I have tried installing many file manager apps and attempting to see if a different file manager would show the files but none did.....
I tried to write this episode as short as possible.. this is the best I could do to cover al the bases...
what could be a fix????????? PLEASE ADVISE! I LOVE MY BUDDIESNOW!
Come one...anyone? I love my buddiesnow app. Please help me out here
hard to belive
hard to believe someone has not seen this before and has an idea how to fix it...
I love this forum anyways

OVERWRITE FILE is not an option to choose... in this particular problem with this
particular apk disappearance, the option to overwrite is not there.
I have had the overwrite option at other times but not now with this issue fo who know what reason.
I am going to factory reset I guess and start over.
hasn't anyone else had the same issue?
Not sure if this would be helpful but when I had a similar issue I just used titanium backup and found the file that "already existed" and removed it. Also, you can use any file manager that allows you to sort by date modified and look for any buddynow files that may be in a folder that you didn't think about looking in
did you maybe moved the app to your sdcard ? sometimes app's widgets wont show if you move them to sdcard.If you did so move it back to the phone's memory

I used the search function in the various file managers I have tried & even searched the entire phone (and also the /system/app )for he disappeared files and got no results...when I get some time next week I am going to sit down and factory reset my phone and start all over.
if it works I will not try the vibrant version of buddiesnow on my phone again,
I will just use the fascinate version of buddiesnow. (the vibrant version sure was nicer tho)....

ICS calendar app isn't showing all appoints...

I'm using my evo and my calendar app is from the kings shooter 3d and it's a great calendar app. When I sync'd the calendar app on my ics photon it only shows some of the things. Pretty much anything I manually put on my calendar isn't coming up. I have the basketball schedule, holidays, and other repeating events showing up, but nothing else. I would like to install the other calendar app so I pulled it off the rom and tried to install, but it wouldn't let it. Does anyone know how I can use the calendar app from my evo rom? Or correct the problem from my current ics calendar app? Thank you
Did you just trying installing the apk? Or did you move it into /system/app folder? If you move to that folder with Root Explorer set permissions and reboot it should work. Dont forget to rename the normal calendar to .apk.bak so if it doesn't work you can just rename it back to .apk and reboot and be back to normal.

I pulled the apk file from the rom and emailed it to myself so it downloaded and I tried to install but it wouldn't let me. Oh ok, I'll try your method. I'll have to read how to set permissions. I have a copy of root explorer and that wouldn't work either, but I have Astro and I was able to edit files with it too, but I would like to get my root explorer working also. Thanks wolf

I tried using a few file explorers even root explorer and none will let me change the name. Root explorer actually says cannot be changed because it is read only. I'm using CM7.2 now. How can I make the files read and writable?

[Q] Need S3 Stock email client apk ...

I rooted with the stripped down ROM. But i need the stock email app in order to sync my Exchange contacts Where can i get just this apk? Thanks !!
Right. Download my ROM for example and extract Email.apk from zip file. Then copy it using RootExplorer or adb into /system/app on your phone. Change permissions to rw-r-r. Reboot.

Excuse my ignorance, but i can't seem to extract from any of the ROM's ive downloaded (can't find the link to yours if i click the ics one in your signature it just takes me to a long thread with no obvious links). I know how to use adb to get the file onto the phone, but cant figure out how to get it out of the .tar.ext4 file ?
download blazer rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746184
then use 7zip (http://www.7-zip.org/) to open the zip.
navigate to system/app and find email.apk
extract it from there (drag and drop it out of the 7zip window to your desktop)
then copy that to your phone ... either use adb to push it to system/app or use root explorer on your phone.
hope that helps
Hi, I realize that your rom says that it's just for Sprint, if I were to download it and take the contacts.apk from it, would that not work on my AT&T galaxy SIII?
I accidentally disabled it and am currently trying to find a way to get it back onto my phone. :'( *I already looked at my settings>applications>all and it's not there. [contact storage is there, but I can't find the application that I use to actually read that, after the disabling.//I raged on it for continually popping up on my advanced task manager.]

I rooted (using this method: http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s3-sch-i535-root-101633/) and ended up using the non-bloatware version and apparently the regular email app was considered bloatware for some reason because it disappeared.
So I tried following your instructions, but there was no "email.apk" in the download, so I figured you probably meant "exchange.apk." Followed the instructions, moved it to system\app, changed the permissions, and rebooted but it's still not showing. So I went back to try to install it manually, and it just tells me it wasn't installed successfully (and yes, I have "unknown sources" selected).
I am also not sure if this is the stock GSIII email app, based on the icon. Looks like the old yellow email icon to me.

NookColor Tools KFHD

There are some interesting settings that you can use in this application. Many of which are hidden, it worked on the origianl Kindle Fire, and I tryed to just use it to get keyboards fixed, and then I was messing with it. Just install apk, doesnt need to be in system/app
Not really sure if its any use besides a couple hidden settings. I ended up getting into the actual ICS settings menu, its interesting to mess around with this.

Lets you add keyboards
I was able to change keyboards with this app.
1.Download nookcolor tools (I found it in the xda forum, not in the market)
2.Download whatever keyboard you want
3. Open up root browser or whatever file explorer you have
4. Click on the apk file for the keyboard you want
5. Select the view option
6. Open the lib folder
The keyboard I downloaded (hacker keyboard) has 4 folders in lib folder
7.I selected the armeabi-v7a folder. Inside you'll find a something.so file (mine was libjni_pckeyboard.so)
8. Click on the .so file and select extract. Mine extracted it to /sdcard/extracted
9.I then copied the .so file from the /extracted folder, opened up the /system/lib folder, and pasted it
10. Move the keyboard apk file to the /system/app folder
11.Reboot the kindle fire and open up the nookcolor tools app
12. Click choose keyboard. Your downloaded keyboard should now be available as an option.
WALAA
I did this just to get a keyboard with a ctrl button. It should work with any keyboard app.
HOWEVER... in landscape mode you can only see like 95% of the keyboard. It works perfect in portrait mode though. Sorry for the long step list. All of these steps may not be necessary but this works. Keyboard will not be available until reboot. Will say updating or upgrading on startup.
Hah..12 steps!!
After every reboot , Swiftkey crashed and i must reinstall from the /system/app/ directory and must click Ok to overwrite an existed Systemapp. Then Swiftkey works perfectly. After a reboot Swiftkey crashed again.

It works on mine. Did u install from market? My launcher did this until I installed it from a non-market source. Try googling swiftkey apk and then follow the steps above. Also make sure you move the .so file.
