If your not rooted just flash the rom you are using again and all will be stock normal again If your rooted use root explorer and get the file you deleted from a custom rom and paste it back
I would go for the first option as its easier

Forgive the noobiness as well here. I somehow managed to remove one of the clock WIDGETS that displayed time battery life and weather (the ONLY one that has the battery life bar go figure) thinking it was the accuweather widget. Now I can't get it back ... ?

Magic smoke lwp

Does anyone have the magic smoke lwp apk? I've spent the better part of a hour looking for it and cannot find it. I don't want to change roms or replace the stock lwp's. Just want to add that one. Any help?

With other LW's, I did not install them, I just put them in system/app and went to change the WP and they were there....

Right on, glad it worked man.
So are you gonna share or what?
^ just download the rom and extract it, put the .apk file in system/app (no need to install it) and then go to your LW's, it should be there now.
Moving with root explorer did the trick, wicked wallpaper

Since someone obviously already pulled the .apk, can you please post it up?

I need the stock vibrant text msg app

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

Omega rom question...Please help!!

Hi,
I'm posting this question here in the hopes that someone will be kind enough to help me since I don't have the post count to post in the development section.
I installed the omega ROM and really like it but I need the Email.apk that is not included in this ROM. When I copy the Email.apk from other 2.3.6 stock based ROMs the app constantly FCs. Does anybody have an Email.apk and/or Email.odex that will work with this ROM.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers!!
Should i suggest a thing?
First backup your system.then go flash any rom which has that that email.apk.
Then open titanihm backup and backup the email app. Then go to cwm recovery and restore omega rom and then restore the app again via titanium backup. This shud work
. If it doesnt work then tell me. I will upload the email apk.

PRESS THNX IF I HELPED

Thanks for your response. I tried your suggestion but it still FCs as soon as the phone powers up.
I think it's because the omega rom is odexed and all the 2.3.6 based roms that I have are deodexed.
When I look at the /system/app directory all system apps have an .apk and a corresponding .odex file of each application.
If you have a 2.3.6 odex version of Email.apk I would really appreciate it if you could upload it.
Thanks for your help!!
Here you go
This should work just flash via CMW5

Did you extract the files on your computer first and then add them to system/app?
Did you reboot your phone after putting the files there?

It might be deleted by updater-script. Better solution is to copy your .apk to /data/app.

Are you sure it is safe?
Can there be malicious code or spyware in it?
It comes from someone in China?
PS I am asking because it does not come from someone we know. Sounds like you found this on a Chinese website.
PPS I actually am a bit excited that a solution has been found.

Just use 3 days only, No problem
Works good. Removes annoying sim card message but it messes up lock screen shortcuts. It puts default shortcuts back in and it won't allow you to change them. I'm on 4.03.605.2. You could ask the guy in China to fix it, maybe?

OK thanks. So are you fixing the "Idlescreen_Base.odex" he uploaded because I only found "Idlescreen_Base.apk in system/app.
I'm running Nils' Business ICS 4.0.3 Sense 3.6 if that makes a difference.

Nils' Rom is deodexed, so there will not be any odex files in it.
Deodexing combines the apk with the associated odex file.
