Request please. - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Would someone be so kinda and send me their "contacts.apk" from their "/system/app" folder? I got delete happy tonight when doing a conversion from touchwiz launcher to GoEX and deleted contacts without realizing that besides showing contacts it also has system calls as well, LOL.
I can still use my phone, and using GoContacts I have a functional dialer / contact viewer, but there is a few little annoyances by not having the stock contact.apk file installed.
To get the file as long as your rooted, just browse to / system / app and you'll see the .apk
Thanks for the help

I don't think I can because I am not rooted, but I'll bump for you. Good luck

There are a few contacts.apk files in the Themes/Apps sub-forum. Damn XDA app keeps FCing on me every time I try to copy the URL so you have to look yourself, but they're there.

if you still need it have all the stock apks from my phone saved just incase this happened to me......
let me know

[Q] Problem pushing apps from root explorer

I've searched, and I can't figure out why when I put the tw calculator in the /system/app folder and fix permissions that the program wont show up in the app drawer or anywhere else. Can someone help me?
forgot to mention that I did have it mounted rw as well. Just as a side note, I deleted the stock ugly calc that came with Eugene's FrankinWiz and was trying to put the original TW Calc back in. No matter what I do I can't get it to show up in the app drawer, etc.
I know it's a noob question but can anyone help?

Are you putting both the stock tw calendar .apk AND the .odex file in system/app and rebooting?
I put a step by step for replacing the stock calendar in the general sticky thread, perhaps try there?
So I need to push the odex file too? Would this work for all share and the office app as well? I'm trying to get them back into frankenwiz.
I did read your sticky post about calendar, calculator seems different.
Sent from my Vibrant. Most errors courtesy of Swype.
Ahh, just realized you said calculator, and not calendar. I know nothing of Eugene's rom, but if there is a .odex, and I asssume there is then yet, it too would need to be put in system/app
Or you could just pull deodexed apk's of the apps you want from the deodexed rom in the bible sticky in the dev section. Thats what I did for eugenes vibrant9 for allshare, works well. I haven't tried it with frankenwiz though.

How would deodexed make it easier? Does it push the same or?
Sent from my Vibrant. Most errors courtesy of Swype.
Because eugenes roms are deodexed. I personally dont know but im sure some dev could explain, but when I try copying a odexed apk and odex file to system/app it never shows up in the app drawer, but the deodexed apk alone will. Just try it.

Thanks for the help. I got everything into the FrankinTwiz except for allshare. I believe it's dlna.apk but pushing it doesn't put it in the app drawer.
Anyone have any luck getting allshare to work with FW?

[Q] PLS HELP- Uninstalled sys app, & user added keyboards force close/useless!

Okay,, I uninstalled something called inputmethod.Latin-20(and a bunch of numbers or what not after) and it totally messed up my swype keyboard (continuously force closes). Can't for the life of me figure out how to restore it, can anyone please help? I know that titanium backup on sd has a zip of it and a properties (?) file of it, but can't find it in the list on the titanium app to restore it... Please help!!!
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
In your titanium folder, there is a long name apk file. You find the file that include your file name (removed). Rename it same as original and use root explorer copy back to /system/app.

search on forum and you`ll find a thread with ALL apk files from SE stock rom (sorry but can`t remember where but i think it`s under development section)
Thanks for such a quick response. I think you are.talking about this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=826849
Well problem is I was.only able to download two .bin files and one .php, otherwise I get taken to a site that asks me to register (without letting me know if this will get me the file or not) and one says the file was removed... Or am I just too much of.a noob, lol?!
thanks again

You can find the same in my thread,,,,follow my signeture......
Hope it will help you...
Unfortunately I did download that package but it seems its not helping at all! Thanks though... I guess it may have been worth mentioning that my gmail app does the same thing... Like the keyboard, I can open it and see my mail, but once I try opening an email, force close (?!)... I also remember I removed system apps that were spelled in the com.inputmethod.Latin-20(and a bunch of characters), because they looked like leftovers of system apps I no longer needed, now my dilemma is so huge that I just NEED to restore that functionality to my phone! Any suggestions??

which one you've downloaded?? xRecovery .zip file or System app .zip file?
you should download 2nd one....there you can find all the stock applications...just push the required missing application by ADB cmd or you can use mRush mode tool. which is very easier......
Am I gonna need my pc?? I have ADB, but was hoping I can fix it now. Im ready to reflash if necessary, but in doing this, am I safe if everything is backed up from before the problem with titanium? And if I have to do that, would it not make more sense to go for a 2.2 aosp like freex10 beta4 (or is there something better out yet)? Thanks!

[Q] Accidentally uninstalled stock clock application

So.
Being a new android user, I messed around with my phone without a full understanding of what would happen if i uninstalled a core application. I assumed incorrectly that Titanium Backup would allow me to reinstall applications, and then uninstalled the stock clock application thinking that it was one of the many clock widgets.
Could someone upload their stock Clock application apk here, or advise me as to how I can restore the stock clock (preferably without having to flash the original ROM)?

Here. I backup all of the apk that I want to remove. Hope this is what you want.
Is this the stock clock application, like the one used for alarms and such?
EDIT: I attempted to install ClockPackage.apk anyway by using Root explorer, and then moving the apk to /system/app and installing it from there, but it says 'Application not installed.' Am I doing something wrong?

This is for clock, alarm, stopwatch etc. Put the apk on the root of your sd card and install from there. Don have to move it to system/app.

LOL YOU DID THE SAME THING AS ME. (except no one bothered to reply to my cries for help and I had to figure out everything myself)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1070083
1)keep your clockpackage.apk in system/apps
2)download this .odex file
3)put the file in system/apps, remember to mount r/w in rootexplorer to enable pasting it in there, then mount r/o when finished
4)turn phone off.
5)turn phone on.
Mmmm, same here but I lost the weather widget due to samsung app update. Any one!

Did you add the odex file as explained above?
Yes i followed the guide as described. I have the odex and apk in system/apps folder. Funny, another clock widget im using is showing my next alarm.. but no alarmclock..
Followed the guide above, apk and odex showing in app system/app but still not available anywhere on the phone.
Anyone recommend a third party clockpackage from the market?
Used sgstools to kill my clock so used it to reinstall it to.
added a extra script,
echo "this will reverse the klok hack"
busybox cp -f /sdcard/sgstools/ClockPackage.apk /system/app/
(you might have to remove it fist if you have been messing around to get it working again)
I did the what the above guide said and could not find the app in the application menu. Help!
will reloading the stock firmware fix this issue?

I did the same thing, but when i restart my phone, the clock in not in the app drawer, when i go to TB, it is there, but with a line through it and it won't restore, all attempts to install the apk is failing too... what can i do?
The link for the odex file is down. Also, I'm trying to get this app working on CM7. Is that doable? I love CM, but a couple of the samsung apps are miles beyond what comes with Cyanogenmod - namely the clock, and the camera. I understand I can't swap the camera app, having looked into it, and I'm ok with that. The clock, however... I gotta have my samsung clock back!
Parse Error
I managed to get the ClockPackage.apk and the ClockPackage.odex from another device (running on 2.3.5 instead of 2.3.6) and now I get the following error while trying to install the apk:
"Parse Error: There is a problem parsing the package"
Does anybody know what to do?
Contacts app backup please help
hi, I recently updated my sgs2 i9100p (NFS) to ics via kies. Its orange but I unlocked now 4.0.3 with baseband ver i9100PBVLP6. an orange bloatware called 'contact backup' irritated me so I decided to uninstall it with Titanium backup. but in a hurry I uninstalled stock contact app. now there is no contact and in every 5-10 second phone freezes and error msg comes-' unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped'. Please help.
AnalogClock.apk + ClockPackage.apk seem to work together.
I used SystemApp Remover to disable ClockPackage.apk, (thought it was a bunch of unnecessary Clock widgets), but stock Clocks package stopped working. I tried enabling it, copying ClockPackage.apk, and still could not. SuperSU logs indicated that all operations succeded normally, but it simply would not work.
I thought, maybe it messed up with program data, permissions, etc., so I removed/deleted both, restarted, then simply copied .apk file for both back. Only then it worked.

There are applications that access data, and there are applications that provide that data. For example, for contacts, you could have many applications that use it (Email, Messenger, Call Logs, etc), and one application that provides it. In case if you accidentally delete data provider (in your case contacts), and if that data provider is essential to running your phone, you will ruin your phone. You might be able to restore it, but I would recommend using Odin to flash correct official firmware. Search in forum "i9100 Android Development".

U are right. I think I uninstalled contact provider, the main contact app. I tried to find solution for all day but coudn't. Tried to flash original stock rom which I have downloaded (i9001PBVLP6) but odin didn't detect my phone in downloading mode. I had to make my phone work anyhow so I flashed Wanamlite 11 with cwm which is ok but not fully functioned on my nfc version sgs2 (now I know the importance of back-up). Now I want my original stock rom back. tried with cwm but didnt work, Odin doesnt detect my phone. any help regarding flashing this stock rom, please?

[Q] dialer/contacts screwed up in ICS?

I remember the dialer before i upgraded to ICS had a tab at the top for contacts, i could click that and find the contact i wanted, hell i could even send a SMS from there by swyping the contact name to the side...
The new dialer for ICS has contacts listed under the menu button, meaning its one more keypress to get there. It just doesnt "flow" as well, if that makes sense.
Im wondering, has anyone else noticed this? how can i get back the old dialer? Are there any good tweaked ICS roms that have this (and other) improvements? Im sorry but search didnt come up with anything and this place is crazy (two android development sections!?!) i couldnt find anything when i searched that met what im looking for.
Im currently running XXLPQ stock
hey there, i am using resurrection remix 1.4 w/ siyahkernel3.1rc6, and the dialler app for ics has contacts at the top of the dialler if thats what your looking for? its got 3 tabs, dialler, recent calls, contacts
That's exactly what inn looking for, any chance you can post the dialer apk for me?
i will do a titanium backup and see if i can get hold of my apk
EDIT: the two files i attached, put it in sd card, titanium backup... i THINK this will work, i would to a nandroid backup just to be sure, then try restoring the apps (search for phone in titanium)
pm me if i dnt reply to this thread
No go on the titanium backup, didn't wanna show up in my list, i cleared my titanium folder so there was nothing else, put the files in, restarted, start TB, no backups found for the dialer.
Try using root explorer and finding your dialer apk and post that? I can manually replace the file
thats the thing its not called dialler lol, its called phone, and seems to be fragmented into two parts =S lol let me see if i can find someting else
EDIT: try un g zipping the file so it shows an APK file and try pushing it to the system maybe? or installing it
EDIT 2: i managed to extract these apk's from the resurrection remix rom:
contacts, contactsprovider, phone, phonesky
hope it helps
Perhaps both Phone.apk (and .odex if applicable) and Contacts.apk (and .odex if applicable)?
my bad let me find .odex
EDIT: cant find .odex but try push the above found in system (on the rom.zip)

You don't have Phone.odex and Contacts.odex? That means YOU'RE on a deodexed ROM... But IF the other guy who is requesting the files is on an odexed ROM, he will have an extra step of removing the applicable .odex files. But he may already know that. (and it's always recommended to back anything up that you may end up needing again if you remove it)

I had that problem with "Resurrection rom 1.1" and believe me you better re-flash the ROM than s***ing with .apk-s... Didn't work for me so if you don't want to flash again you may use exDialer from the market, it's a good app, has the "swipe" functions and ICS themes, I used it for a week before switching to RR 1.4.
Ya def need one with an odex file...

No... you don't.
Back up the .apk file you intend to replace, along with their corresponding .odex file. Then REMOVE the .odex file and replace the .apk.
For example, if he gives you Phone.apk, and you have Phone.apk and Phone.odex, then COPY your original copies of Phone.apk and Phone.odex to a safe place, then delete Phone.odex, and replace your existing Phone.apk.
I've done this before, and used a deodexed Phone app on my odexed firmware.
Tried that but it didn't seem to work, after restart i lost service and couldn't dual out and had several other services complain on me, perhaps it's not comparable with my system?

If his version of Android is different than yours, then his apps probably wouldn't work for you.
Going back to read the thread, he said he is on Resurrection Remix 1.4. Looking at the thread for that ROM, it is AOKP based, with elements from CM9. What firmware are you on? You said you're on ICS, but you never mention specifically what ROM. Are you on stock? Then yeah, his apps probably won't work for you.
damn a shame it wouldnt work, try out go dialler tho if you want quick contacts access, from the dialler you just have to swipe to change to contacts... i used to use it but the themes arent as good as the ones we have lol
That would explain it I'm running LPQ stock...

I've not seen any mods for stock ICS to have this. A quick google search also turns up nothing for stock ICS.
So if you absolutely want this in ICS, you will need to flash a custom ROM.
EDIT to add: I should rephrase; you also have the option of using a third party dialer that has contacts integrated. But if you want to have the dialer that is included in the ICS ROM to have the contacts tab, you'll need to flash a custom ROM.

[Q] [REQ] Stock Messages App

I recently flashed stock rom on my phone. Everything's working fine except Messages. Whenever I try to open it, it says "App isn't installed". Can anyone please give me the Messages.apk from systems directory. please i'm not able to send or receive texts
Have you checked data/app to see if the apk is there? If it is both there and in system/app that's probably the cause of the problem. I attached mine anyway, it may or may not work though seeing as mine is the Mms.apk from a custom ROM.. Try it though, as long as you delete the current Mms.apk in system/app it should still work.

I figured what the problem was. Its because I was using nova launcher and I had restored a backup of the nova settings from what i had on a custom rom. So the shortcut on my home screen kept saying 'App isn't installed'. But thanks a lot! nonetheless for attaching the files! It might come to use of others facing similar problems in the future!
PS: Thanks to Bala_Gamer for telling me about the Nova Settings
