I have a nexus one, running CM7.1. My question is that is there a way of removing the stock native apps like the messaging app, the browser, galary, music player or camera? Because i use PowerAMP, GoSMS, Dolphin DH Browser and i don't need the native apps, is that possible?
I don't think third party apps can working properly without those system app. But you can give it a try by freezing those system app by using titanium backup.

Hi, is there a way to replace system apps with my own app, like replace semchome with launcher pro, music with zimly, that doesnt cause any problems like missing apps notification error ?
You have to download the replacements and delete the system apps, however I'd search the forums on how to do that since not all of the system apps can be replaced without seriously breaking the OS.
Did anyone tried replacing system apps with own app ?

What for? just uninstall the system apps you dont want and use whatever you want as default. I removed semchome, music, semcalarm, and all the semc **** i could eliminate, which was quite a lot.

All he mention above I could delete without rupercussion, one thing however is a bit annoying. I delete the stock messaging apps and the notification for the go SMS stop working. Need to actually reinstall the messaging apk
Lol FYI I have my phone rooted ages ago

I know but the thing is I've disabled the stock notification and enabled the go sms notification and when I delete it, this happen.
So I am rooted and used tibu to freeze the stock email app but when I just tried to defrost and use it it doesn't show up in the app drawer, and when I try to run app from tibu it just force closes. How can I get this app running again?

Something must have went wrong with the defrosting process. The same thing happened to Christopher Reeves when they tried to defrost him.
Try clearing app data. If not, you can check in the Apps/Themes section, I think there's a stock apk thread from which you can push the original email.apk
If I install go messenger and enhanced email can I freeze the stock messenger and email apps in titanium or will that screw up my phone? Thx!

GO Messenger, and other similar 3rd party apps, still require the core app to function. GO is just an interface. So you don't want to do anything to the stock app.
Enhanced Email though is its own stand alone app. So you should be fine to freeze the stock one.

You can just turn off notifications if they are bothering you.

Hello,
I was wondering if I could replace Samsung's messaging app with Google's SMS/MMS app or just install Google's. I really prefere Google's one but for some reason I want to keep a Samsung-based ROM (not for Touchwiz launcher, but some apps like the Camera with no shutter lag, S-Memo which I use with my C-Pen,...)
Yes you can, but you need first remove the stock messaging app

How can I replace it with Google's SMS/MMS app ? Where can I download it and will it work with my Touchwiz-based ROM ?
You can pull the apk out of CM10 build.. Push it in system/app after renaming.. But keep in mind your smses will not be threaded..

Try this.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/....com.android.mms&feature=search_result#?t=W10.
I was going to use it myself but decided to stick with handcent which i've been using since GBread.
I expect you can do with this app what i done with handcent, - go into stock app - setting disable notifications, go to app manager the disable the stock message app - setup notifications on new message app and you should be good to go.
The dev also got the google calender etc too.
Hope this helps and works - let us know :good:

I extracted my MMS apk from my cm10 ROM, download it: http://db.tt/kCXioNLo
then use root explorer to copy it to system/app folder.
Then you set the right permissions (all of the first row checked and first of second row only, if in doubt check on the other apps permissions and set the same)
And the look for Semms.apk (or something like this), backup and delete it

I made a flashable cwm package for you .
It does every thing itself.
enjoy,
Thanks all ! But i've no thread in sms/mms, you have an idea ?
You will not get threaded messages in aosp messaging app.. Use the app someone posted from the market.. It is modded to be used in Stock roms

Is there really no way to have threads with the original file ? I remember when I got the Galaxy Nexus for a week, I had threads on my SMS/MMS app. With the app on Android Market I'm having issues with LightFlow and the unread count from Apex Launcher doesn't work

I'm currently on the Sprint S3, and I flashed your package. All went well, but when I tried to send a picture message, it force closed the app. When I tried to re-open the thread, it just force closes.
Btw, is there any way to get the little message icon in the lockscreen for this replacement? I miss being able to slide outward on that message icon to be presented with the latest thread.
