[APP] Slightly themed Visual Voicemail 05/05/11 - Vibrant Themes and Apps

Hey guys. Its been a while since ive posted anything, so i figured id share this small thing i did.
I was absolutely sick and tired of the home screen of tmobile's visual voicemail app. I thought it was absolutely hideous, so i went ahead and changed it, along with a bit of the button framework. Also the launcher icon, so its not pink anymore.
nothing major here, just one of those little things that might make your voicemail experience just a weenie bit better. enjoy.

Installation
Download attached .apk to sdcard, and install using a file manager.
***If you have visual voicemail currently installed (either as a system OR third-party app) it needs to be uninstalled BEFORE installing this modded version.
MAKE SURE YOU INSTALL THIS AS A THIRD-PARTY APP, NOT A SYSTEM APP. IF IT REFUSES TO LET YOU INSTALL, YOU HAVE TO FIX PERMISSIONS, WIPE CACHE/DALVIK CACHE!

Im running trigger 3.1. I remember it gave me a little bit of an attitude when i first tried to install it as well.
Are you trying to install it as a system app? because that could be why. I remember I wasnt able to do that, which is why i noted to install as a third party app from your sdcard. but if thats what youre doing, then i have no idea why it wouldnt work.

Ive uninstalled older version and downloaded this on to the sd card than tried to install as a 3rd party app and all it tells me is not installed

OK. No one else has reported the issue expect for you two, and youre both running Trigger 3.0, so I guess we can assume that it doesnt like the ROM...which is VERY odd. In fact i almost refuse to believe that, because realistically, any app that i can run as a third-party app, you should be able to as well.
unfortunately i dont have a solid answer.
only things i can think of is use root explorer, go to /system/app and just double check to make sure vvm-signed.apk (or something like that) isnt there. also go into something like titanium backup or system app remover, and make sure it doesnt show up. theres a small possibility that there was some data left behind, which you could wipe with titanium.
these are the only things i could think of

I don't know if it has anything to do with it but there is an updated version in the market. I can't install it on Trigger 3.2 Final.

yah that wouldnt have anything to do with it. This modded version is based on the VVM apk that came with Trigger 3.1.
if its working on my phone, theres no reason why it wouldnt work on anyone else's, regardless of the ROM...this would indicate that the people who are having trouble may not be getting clean uninstalls. It is a very odd issue, but all i can advise is make sure there are absolutely no traces of Visual Voicemail anywhere on your phone.

Yes, I fixed permissions. On Trigger 3.2 Final, the Visual VM is vvm-signed.apk and is in the \system\app folder. I tried to rename it, then totally deleted it. Tried doing a normal install = fail, then a push to \system\app. Is there some other folder to try? Wi;; you be updating to the current APK? (assuming I can get it to work!)

how do I install as a third party app? Mine keeps saying it is a system app.

Thanks bro it helped. I was making a mistake lol Awsome tweaked APk

[Q] new swype beta?

I'm on the rooted stock MT4G rom, and joined the swype beta when I had the MT3G. Last week I got a notification that the new beta was ready. Is there a way to update my swype with the latest and greatest beta?
It won't work on this phone
i got it to work on mine, i had to un-install swype then i did a search for files with swype in them and deleted all of them, then the installer worked and the new swype also worked " version 2.15.56.14870". I got it to work on the release day, and it has been working well.

Interesting, swype themselves said that it would not due to the firmware..
Edit- confirmed working beta! I used root explorer to find all the swype files. I suggest you click r/w before you search.
You are the man sir...and quite frankly I'm annoyed I didn't try this myself lol.
Well damn. I need to try this. I was without swype for weeks because I deleted the default one and tried to install my beta. It was saying the english pack was missing or something
Thank you sir. One file I wasn't deleting was the problem. Works now! I have my mic back!

I used root explorer. go into system, menu, search, enter swype. delete the apk and the other file. reboot. you might wanna copy them to your card first just in case
so just deleting those files will allow the installer to work? do you happen to know what the filenames were?
I uninstalled with Titanium Backup, and then deleted everything with swype in the name with Root Explorer, and then installed the new Swype beta. It constantly FCs. This just won't work for me...

Are you able to re-install (restore the files) the original version?
i just did a restore with clockworkmod. didn't want to deal with any issues with trying to reinstall.
Hey, is it possible to download the new beta anywhere without a beta account and use it without proper licencing?
I would even pay swype inc. for their product, but they don't let us

The apk and another file. If you do it how I said, it will show the two
I deleted the app using system app app removal then using root explorer to search for anything with swype (2 files I don't remember the name) then I'm able to install another swype version.

[MOD]<<<< AppsBak-Auto Backup Apps + Data UPDATED: 9/25 >>>>

This mod will backup your apps and auto update the backup on your sdcard at every boot.
Backup apps and data
Flash zip
Open terminal and type su
Then type bak
Follow onscreen instructions
After you do a restore you must reboot or do a hot restart before the apps will show in the menu.
Before installing a new rom just reboot one time to update your backup or do it manually with the script, then after you install your new rom flash this again and restore.
This uses init.d
Now it syncs files instead of using 7zip using rsync. Thanks to dodava for the info and download of rsync it's a much more efficient way to do it.
It also syncs data and settings now but some settings cannot be restored so it excludes those. It keeps your system settings but not accounts like google you have to make those again if you change roms. It does keep app data for installed apps.
Backups are located at /sdcard/appsbak
Please post question/comments/problems here.
If you use this in your rom please leave the creds in the files, Thank You.
Very nice!
I want to know what the script does. I want specific details, I want to see the schematics, I want to know the....

Doesn't look like it'll get app settings, but it'll definitely save a bunch of time after doing a wipe/rom install. Excellent work.

Yep. There's not really a way to pick and choose that I know of. You'd have to write (basically) a backup/recovery app. I think this is slick enough as it is. Restoring the programs is what takes the most times, and decent backup software will let you restore JUST the app data, so if settings are that critical you can do it in no time after you restore from a wipe.
Cool thanks...great idea
This is the best script ever for flashers.
Hey smoke you think this would work on my old evo? I test out stuff on it for dev's. .
Thank you again.
My 3D Shooter not yours!!
Yea it should work all the dirs are the same. Just have to add an updater-script for the old evo to the zip. Or push the files.
Grab the attachment now and flash the auto backup wasn't working properly. So if you got it before this post was made get the new one.
Is there a way to get this to tie into market also...or how exactly does that work? I thought anything you installed from sdcard, that was not from the market, market would never update the app again. Am I wrong in that thinking? If I am right, is there a possibility to backup the apps and also tie them to the market so we can be sure they are updated?
nice downloading now!!

I like combination of neon green and blue a lot so i made this Morphs lockscreens for CM7, I have an Evo 3D so the lockscreens are made for the phones resolution, I personally use ZipThemer to make a flahable zip, plus it also makes an undo zip in case you want to go back. Enjoy
Instructions:
1: Install ZipThemer link to the app https://market.android.com/details?id=kellinwood.zipthemer&hl=en
2: Make a folder in you SD card and name it ZipThemer and put the zip inside the folder
3: Press the button +Theme, choose neonelite.zip and then press Build it, when it asks you if you want to create a flashable undo press yes, the app will do its thing and tell you when its done, now flash the neoneliteupdate zip and youre done

Try the app ZipThemer.
Gave this a try on ZipThemer, it said that the update was built fine. Went to flash in recovery, everything goes fine up until it says "Installing Zip" it quickly stops after that not giving anything saying it was complete etc.
Any suggestions here guys?

Android spyware?

Does this happen and how?
After I installed the official grupon app from the market I have been getting notifications every time the phone is powered up from being completely shut off for ads. It's weird as hell. Uninstalled the app but the ads keep coming. It's not a huge deal but it is annoying. I'm sure a full wipe would fix it. but I would like to avoid that if possible.
anyone else expedience anything similar, and if so how do you fix this?

This has happened to me as well. I did a full wipe and it went away. These is probably some file that has been kept inside the phone to allow ads. If so, then its probably stored in a "residue" folder as I call them. Which is kind of like traces of an app. If there is none then a wipe will be necessary. Have you tried rebooting the phone? Or clearing the cache?

I'll clear cache now and see if its persists.
EDIT:
Ok just cleared my cache, wiped dalvik, battery stats and am repairing permissions in the recovery now. I'll let you all know what happens.
I have never had one of these notifications until tonight as well. I received it right after I had installed go launcher. First time using the launcher so that was my "calculated" guess. I rebooted after seeing it and it has not happened since.
Edit: are the three other posters in this topic using go launcher?
There are apps on the market that will tell you what it is....just search for Push notification something will come up..... illegal downloader apps are usually the culprit ...and its definitely not GO launcher they are on of the best group of Devs without question.....I have been using Go for 2 years pretty much exclusively and NEVER had a problem.

Have you uninstalled any apps you suspected? If so reinstall and launch it, and then run the Airpush app or whatever one you have. After it scans try uninstalling the app through the system settings....manage applications>clear cache then clear data and then uninstall. Thats how I cured my wife's phone when she was downloading music from MP3 Music downloader.
If that don't work you have a real good reason to reflash

Wow. Surprised no educated member decided to help. These are push-ads. They're generally caused by shadier developers of apps on the market. If you install an ad blocker from the market, and one for push-ads you wouldn't get these.
A better solution is to read what you download first, so you KNOW if the dev uses push-ads so you can avoid those apps to begin with.

Thanks a lot, bro. One question, is there much difference between this one and the one Mikeyxda put out, the M7_offline.zip? Just curious...
Edit: This works well, thanks again!

i didnt see that one so i dont know. I just needed google now so i posted what i made for my self. lol
When you say disable security do you mean allow unknown sources?
I am on the base .5, rooted and unlocked with FreeGee .5. Installed the zip(painlessly), but no Google Now. It tries to start, then crashes with "android.process.acore" has stopped. Also, Google Voice no longer will start. Restoring backup, and will try again...
BTW, very nice to see another developer in the mix. I am never afraid to try something new.

What does it mean to have security disabled?
The security thing is for those of you that only rooted and did not use the bootloader unlock exploit. Just make sure you have a CMW backup that works before using.
Speaking of backups, I found out (the hard way) that backups taken with the original non-touch freegree CWM do not restore! My problem with the Google Now and android.process.acore was cleared up with a simple clear data per adfurgerson's suggestion, so no harm no foul for me. But if you still have the non-touch version of CWM, install the touch version THEN take a backup.

If you are doing it from your phone and it is bringing you to our "mobile" site, you will need to click the "full" site link. From there you shouldn't have any issues with downloading the attachment.

You could also try a different browser. Dolphin or naked browser are good.

Nice, seems to be working well, but I can't get it to launch apps. For example, if I say "open app Pandora" or "launch Pandora" it does a google search for the phrase instead of launching the app. Any ideas?

Hmm not sure this is related to this tweak in particular but I get a error when I first use the Google search icon and it force closes
"could not opt you in to lattitude please check your map settings "
Thing is that every thing in location settings in maps is enabled
Any ideas?
