I have obviously a custom ROM and don't like the look of the market and SWYPE keyboard. I want the stock SWYPE (2.2) and Market look back. Can someone help me out?
Grab a stock vending.apk and a stock swype.apk and push them to your phone... Or use root explorer and delete the apks from system/app and replace them with the stock apks and reboot.
Where can I grab these two apk?

I did exactly as you said, remove old swype.apk and vending.apk, replace with stock - reboot. That didn't work at all. Market is missing, swype is missing still. I deleted/pasted in root mode in file expert app too.
I'm using community rom as well
Really need help here guys...please
ah..i forgot com rom uses a newer version of swype thats only available through the rom so far (frankly stock swype theme is so awful i couldnt use it, thus i made it gb themed)
so youd have to delete swype (from system/app) and swypelibcore (whatever it is) from system/lib as well then push the swype lib from the ed01 stock rom and swype.apk
market...idk why it wouldnt take
I'll try that. Anyone else know about market?

You need to give us a logcat of what is happening when you install these APK's. If you can't do that or do not know how to do that then you do not need to be customizing your phone. Don't ask for help if you can't help us help you. Not trying to be an ass, but that log is the kind of thing that will help us get you on track to a working Swype and Market of your choice.
I didn't like nitsuj17's swype theme either so i made this one:http://www.mediafire.com/?d6lk4w0aipll4bs
Its kinda like the stock theme.
as for market, I thought these looked kinda sexy:

My boss wanted me to upgrade his phone, so i did... he doesn't like the stock app that's being used in this build (xipher). Is there anything i can do to get him back to the stock one with the bubbles? Thanks in advance!
Yikes hopefully he or she doesn't fire you. Just kidding I believe you need to push the samsung messaging .apk with adb.
P. S. Be prepared to get attacked for posting in the wrong section
Opps... realized this is in the wrong spot. Can a mod please move it?
can you help me figure out how to do this? i downloaded all the stock apk files... is it mms.apk? how would i go about installing it? the phone has root, root explorer and astro.

With Root explorer you'd move the Samsung .apk into /system/app

Is anyone using a ROM that has their MMS fully working without compressing images?
I tried a few with the same result.
If you do, can you post what other issues the ROM has.
I am running on 4.1 now and it seems to work pretty well but with the MMS issue.
There is a fix already posted for this issues in the threads.

I tried using this and if I use the apk only it will not install. I tried through clockwork but it flashed my old ROM and that's when I installed this.
I know I am missing something somewhere.
Remove the old APK from the system/app using rom manager and paste the new file in the same folder.

Actually Im trying to change it to become like the theme in the link I posted in the OP. That theme wasnt made for my rom (stock) so I'm trying to accomodate myself. Ive used apk manager and ninjamorph too but this one is weird. Everytime I push to system/app it either disappears or the stock green one shows up. I finally got it changed a little but its the older version (idk how it became the older version considering I used the newer version and changed png) and its still mostly green. Is there another apk I must change? Thanks for the help!
Did you try going under settings, manage applications, market...and uninstalling updates...that fixed my vending.apk problems

the newest Market is 2.3.3 make sure thats the one your working with...
From reading a few other themed ROM sections, lots of people with themed ROMS are seeing their themed market apk revert back you the green market.
One suggestion was deleting the market updater apk, clearing ur updates and cache in the themed market apk, and then re-pushing the themed market apk back to system/app.
This worked for me when I was using gingerRED.
Goodluck.

The version I have is 2.21 & how do I uninstall updates?
Here, this is 2.3.2 CWM flashable, neon blue market. It will not update and change back to green unless you want it to. I already skipped two updates and very happy since it didn't change. You might have to reboot a couple of times before it changes and if it doesn't wipe data for market and reboot.

Oh your not off the hook that easy, tell me how you did the market thing? I tried pushing every possible way and got stuck with an older version even though that version was never even used, extracted or saved anywhere phone or pc. You have to tell me!!!
Also that application/program doesnt contain the market app so....

Ok I'm seriously doing something wrong because now Im trying to change my framework-res.apk and keep getting force closes. All I'm changing is .png not even .9.png. What am I doing wrong? Here are my stepsall using apk manager)
extract apk
change images as needed
optimize images
zip apk (using system option)
take apk and push to system/framework using various methods
the end
ps. all images exchanged are from roms or themes not supported by the stock rom. I get the images to go after Im done but also get hit by a million force closes.

I used Titanium pro donate version and froze the market updater. After that I used Root Explorer and copied the themed vendor apk and pasted it to system/app. Worked perfectly. I did have to reboot initially and it worked. Hope this helps.

Actually Im trying to change the framework-res.apk now I need to edit the thread title. I keep getting force closes when I edit framework-res.
Ps I pretty much never have had success editing any apk in the system folder. Can someone post a dumbed down tutorial on how to edit apk's in the system folder?
I got tired of seeing the white and grey keyboard and didnt wanna use the Gingerbread keyboard cause of the small buttons. So I themed the stock one a little bit. Thought I would share it with the community.
Using root explorer, copy to /system/app. Change permissions to rw-r-r, reboot to xrecovery, clear cache and dalvik cache, Reboot, Enjoy

added odexed version - not a flashable zip. Use same method from above
oh nice! saves me doing it i was just about to start doing my own one lol!
Something i didn't know how much i need it! thank you man
I followed your instructions but it keeps force-closing every second.
I'm on MiniCM, anyone experiencing this?
Change the name of it to the name of your keyboard before you move it and it will over write.
(NOTE)
Not all roms have the same name for the keyboard

Well most phones already have the stock Eclair keyboard or GIngerbread keyboard. My rom is Gingerbread 2.3.7. So I know this will work if anyone already has either keyboard in their ROM. Ive swapped around to all three keyboards. All worked. and I know the icons are hdpi. They look a lot better on my phone then mdpi. And they get resized by android anyways. I left the characters bigger so they can be seen better. Only notice two characters that hang over a litte bit. Neither causes any issues though. BUT, I guess I could change the icons to mdpi and resize the characters if anyone wants it done.
Thanks for the feedback
No it haven't dude..
