ok, hopefully someone can help me. I recently flashed sbf and installed Kenneth's GreyBlur. Love it and it works great, except somewhere in the middle of that process i lost my "alarms and timer" app that was built in. Not sure if it was taken out because there is an alarm built into the "clock" but i do not really like that alarm because it wont let me select a different alarm thats not built into the phone. it almost gave me a heart attack this morning.
anyway, if there is a way to get this back or a zip or apk i can install that would be great.
(I would post this in the greyblur thread but i cant because i do not have enough posts)
thanks

thanks i appreciate the files. i downloaded them and extracted it to my sd card. tried to install the apk for the bluralarmclock and it goes through the installation and says "application not installed"
ive never really had anything fail like that before. am i installing it wrong?
I pulled this .apk off my Atrix just now. Try it. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8262767/BlurAlarmClock.apk
ok i tried installing that one and get the same message. just to make sure it wasnt happening for everything, i had some apk's on my sd card that i just installed fine, went back to the alarm and still wont install. went through the bloatware folder and tried to install random files and it wont do it either...
im new to android so of course im stumped on what to do next
thanks for your help btw. im wondering if its the greyblur?
Well if your only complaint is that your missing the alarm clock maybe you will like one from the market just as much or more.? I use http://goo.gl/LTd3z, you can configure it to ask you math questions on alarm. The link is to the free version and there is a premium version in the market, as well as a bunch of other free/paid alarm clocks.
if you put an mp3 into the media folder you can use that as your alarm tone

I thought you had to use CWM with that zip, you couldn't install stuff manually.

Put the apk in /system/app and set correct permission, using root explorer. the permissions should match the other files in the app directory.
then reboot.

ok took your suggestion. downloaded root explorer and i cant select r/w in system folder and of course cant copy any files over because its "read only."
ive researched similar issues online and see people have had this issue but the threads i found no one ever seems to say if they got it resolved or not. some people are saying its not rooted but my other rooted apps work fine.
Related
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.

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.

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.

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.

Sounds like you broke your settings, just pull the settings apk from the original rom zip and push it to your phone then reboot.

Forgive me if I may sound a little dumb here but how do you pull it from the original rom then push to phone?......
I am sure one of the fonts did that. it has happened to me before. To pull somethiong out of rom just unzip it. Settings.apk is in system/app folder.
Awesome fonts. Thanks!!

YES PLEASE I redid everything on my phone and its great again but i would love to use a different font but i do not want to use this zip until someone can pin point the problem
the ajax font crashed my settings, i repeat do not install the ajax font, it will crash your phone and constant FC of your display settings, i extracted the original settings .apk from my rom and pushed over and rebooted, that does not work...still FC... not cool...
I pinpointed the one that's causing the force closes. can't remember the exact name because I deleted it right when I discovered which one it was. I do believe it had something like "7con in it. Or something to that extent. Hope this helps everyone that's having this issue.

Uninstall it using Titanium or super manager or whatever you use and it ll be back to normal.
I unistalled them all using Titanium and was able to open up my display settings again.
Edit: post before me beat me to it.
yeah, that doesn't work, i uninstalled all of them hours ago...tried to push the settings apk over using root explorer but root explorer wont allow me to mount the system folder to rw just stays ro, i pushed settings.apk over to the data folder where app is and that did nothing after i replaced settings.apk...should i unistall settings.apk from titanium then reinstall settings.apk from my rom zip? i try to reinstall the settings.apk and it will not allow me to do so..now my launcher is freezing up and force closing on reboots...
Woops same problem. Is it the ajax apk?

Hi & Thanks for the look. My phone is in my signature. Basically a virgin Galaxy Nexus unlocked and rooted.
Any .zip I try to install, even as you suggested above gives me the error. Sigh! I want that inverted stuff.
I love you guys and a newb of sorts I am frustrated in all the wonderful stuff that gets posted without install details.
I cannot help but think if I am trying to install a inverted MMS, Gmail, or People .zip should I not disable or rename the current apps that I am replacing?
I experimented flashing the su.zip and it went ok. So it is not my phone.......I think?
Thanks.

If your talking about the mms.apk,
I use root explorer to navigate to the system/app folder and find the OE mms.apk and rename it to mms.apk.bak to disable it. The icon will disappear from the home screen start bar and app drawer.
I then place the new mms.apk in system/app folder and make sure its permissions are all checked off.
Then go to my app drawer and see if its there and will run. If it does I drage the icon back onto my home bar.
Some devices are finicky. Some require a reboot after a renaming then move it in there. Some require a reboot after every move. Its according to the apk and the device.

Yeh. Just don't have two enabled ones in there.
Having major issue here. I tried to install the .zip when it was posted through cwm and it kept fibbing me an error. So then I downloaded the .APK file and tried to install it, another error. Then I moved it to system/app and when I rebooted I hand no messaging at all. I restored my stock messaging from my titanium backup file, but I can't figure out what's wrong. I really want this messaging system, I love the look. Can anyone give me some ideas?

Any clean instructions on how to install this?
Does this have blurry MMS?
So, I've been unable to find any threads on this so I don't know if this is a common problem or not. My phone is rooted but I'm not quite sure if I'm using a mod, if I am it's a clockwork mod or something, I honestly don't remember what I used to mod it cause it was months ago. Anyways, I'm having problems downloading certain applications from the Google Store. It downloads it then when it's about to install it gives me an Error saying, "Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card" and it only does this with certain apps, I'm able to download and install or update a lot of applications but it only does this to certain apps, I've tried turning my phone on and off, that does nothing, I would turn off my phone and take everything out but I'm not quite sure if that would work either.
I was wondering if there's a solution to this because I'm trying to download a new theme for my GO Launcher EX and it keeps telling me I cannot download it, it's done it to games that I've had before too, it's really weird.
Glad to know that none of you can help me.

I had v10e stock. Worked good.
Then rooted to 10a and updated with a cwm backup 10h.
And gps didnt work.... not that i use it alot but yeah sucks.... something i need it.
So cwm backups arent that great. Is cool but yeah. Costum roms are better. Still waiting for one.
Re: why gps doesnr work? just keep on searching..
Maybe the app you are using is the problem. Remove it, reboot then reinstall.
If this didn't solve it, do a reset. This will solve all your problems but before doubt this, user the stock backup app to backup your settings,sms and calls, home screen widgets, pre installed apps to sd card. but don't backup your downloaded apps.

Hope i get the ota update soon i live in france. (To lazy to use kdz thing)

So you are still using ics. Can you please extract the power control widget .apk from your rom? And send it to me? I lost it. Together with the .odex file.
If your can of course.

Thanks a lot friend, but it's not working, i don't know why.
/system/apps/bootup changed permissions and reboot = not working

it must be some compatibility issue, after all, it's from ics to jb.
