There are many roms which provides these but I just want to have stock rom (Fed up of issues with custom rom) with AOSP google apps on it. I tried to copy & paste them into system/app dir but they 'Force Close' on using them.
Basically, I atleast need a messaging app to work on wanam stock XWLP3 rom.
Is there a way to do this?
have u tried flashing gapps with cwm? always worked for me but i never used wanam so make a backup first
Umm I don't think there's any diffrence between those but I suggest to check out cm9 dev thread if there is diffrences

I'll try to flash gapps and report you back.

Any ideas how to install the AOSP ICS MMS.APK?
I'm running the LPB leak so i've got the ugly TW MMS.apk. I've tried MMS.APK from a CM9 download but it didn't work. Is there a flashable CWM file available? Currently using Handcent.
Thanks
I've been looking into this myself, as I much prefer the ICS look to the horrible iPhone-alike TW MMS app.
There's a thread that provided the stock ICS app, but the files were on multiupload, so it's not downloadable at the moment. The OP there indicated that there was a problem running the MMS app anyway.
I have tried grabbing the MMS.apk from the latest CM9 release for the SGSII, and that exhibits the described problem; the thread list appears, but the app FCs when trying to open a message thread.

There's also an ICS MMS app on the market, but it has been modified to include ads, so I'm not interested in that one.
Some guys looked at removing the ads, but the thread was shut down (for obvious reasons).

How did you try to install.As an apk. or using root explorer to pass to system/app folder?
Just wanted to bump this thread. I love the AOSP MMS app, and it FC's on me on Samsung LPH firmware. I tried pasting it to system/app, and it fc's when I try to send a message. Hopefully someone can port this apk
I believe you have to replace another apk as well.
If you want a rom that already has it, try Spike's Pure ICS special edition. It has aosp mms, calendar and contacts.

Westcrip's Resurrection Remix 9.4 is really good too. I've been using ever since 9.2 and it's been perfect so far - no FCs or bootloops or any problems at all, really. And apps are AOSP. He also has black versions of AOSP SMS and Market among others, which I love.
+1 for the AOSP mms.apk. Also tried replacing mms.apk with AOSP from different roms but it doesn't work.
I'm using Spike's Pure ICS 6.1, too bad the special edition is only in English. If Spike (or someone else) could give us a working AOSP mms.apk that would be great!
Now who wants AOSP MMS.apk for their S II?!
Download the following zip file and flash it:
http://www.mediafire.com/?8dejky1cqzc14lv
Note:
1. Make sure you flash it only after you have already synced up your contacts with google (do not flash it immediately after flashing a new rom)
2. This zip will replace your SMS app, CONTACTS app, CALENDAR app and your CALCULATOR app to AOSP versions.
3. Be sure you take a nandroid backup before flashing.
4. You must be in a Samsung ICS ROM (XXLPQ only) for this zip to work.
5. I did not create this zip. The credit goes to Spike_M who made this zip that can be flashed to his ROM Pure ICS. Do try out his ROM.
ENJOY!!
Thanks RobinRichard, though unfortunately this didn't work for me on XXLPQ (root with CF-Root). Phone and messaging services die horribly after flashing that zip with CWM -- "phone has stopped" and "messaging has stopped" dialogs constantly pop up
Will have a play when I have a bit more time, but I have restored the Samsung apps for now.

I updated my post. Plz download the new zip and try it. It works well for me.
Im on lpq (litening rom 2.1) and it works perfectly for me too!
I used AOSP mms.apk from Spike's Pure ICS V7.0. It worked well. Btw, I used root explorer to copy the apk in/system/app
Hi,
How did you paste the apk into system/apps? mine says read only ?!?
And also did you just paste 1 file or did you copied a few? like the files in the framework?
Someone have dialer app? =) btw, i'll make a custom rom with dsixda kitchen, so, i put the files in /system/app, right? also for the files in framework folder? right? =)

You can use a program such as Root Explorer to remount it. If you don't have that, there are other ways to do this using adb.
Does anyone happen to have a working mms.apk thaybis the same as the one in cm9? I think the aosp one is horridly ugly as is the Sammy one, but love the one used in cm9. But because it has a long way to go yet I don't wanna run cm9 as an every day driver.

You most likely have to drop them in the /system/app folder if they aren't signed you cant just install them like a normal app they must be put into that folder. Put them there and reboot and they should work, if you want to get rid of them open root explorer and delete/rename the file extension to .bak(or whatever you want)
Yea I know that that, thanks :beer:

I'm using these on AOKP, which is built on top of jokers cm9. Some of the them install, some have to be manually placed in system/app, others will not install either way... Hope this helps!

Hey guys. I am using the Padawan ROM and it does not come with S Memo and S Note. I want to learn how to install these apps on custom ROM's that do not include the S-Apps. I tried flashing someone's ZIP and changing the permissions using Root Explorer and it didn't work. I also tried adding the apk's to the system app folder manually and changing the permissions. This was also a no go. Has anyone been able to successfully do this on custom ROM's that do not have the S-apps? If so, can you guys shoot me a bit of help?
If you were unable to successfully install the apks manually, I would recommend that you could:
A) restore your backup of your stock ROM (I'm assuming that you would be clever enough to create a CWM or TWRP backup before flashing a custom ROM),
B) use Titanium Backup to backup the S-Apps (really you should backup all your apps just to be safe),
C) flash the custom ROM of your choice and restore your apps using Titanium Backup. However please note that you can only restore the S-Apps to Touchwiz based ROMs.
I hope this is helpful for you!

I've seen many developers write that the s-pen apps require TouchWiz framework ( i.e., s-pen will not work on any CM or other non-TW based ROMs).
Here's hoping someone find a work around.
Da g has successfully ported hovering point in a couple of his custom ROMs that are mixed of different bases loaded
I'm also very interested in seeing the touchwiz/pen based features (snote, smemo and related features) in JB. I'm running the paranoidandroid hybrid cm10 ROM (love it so far!) and these capabilities would really round it out for me.
S-apps are TW dependent, and require the Touchwiz framework to function....
We may see JB TW based roms in the future that contain these APK's, but until an official JB update is sent to the note 1...(if ever) we are forced to use a TW rom (UCLF6)....or a play store variant of the S-apps,....g
Papyrus
I installed Papyrus to get some of that capability back. I read about it somewhere here. It has just been ported to GNote in the last little while I believe. projectpapyrus dot com

The Padawan ROM is ICS based but the author pulled out those apps (along with many other apps). But he saved off all the extracted apps which can be found on a link he provided in the OP (the server has been down lately though).
So go to that link, download the 2 apps u want then reboot into recovery and install the zips. That's it.

Hello, I am having some issues with the HTC apps for calendar and contacts and was thinking I could try installing the Google AOSP apps for the respective ones to see if things improve.
I was thinking to take them from the most recent CM10 build from Sept 18th.
When I look under system/app folder I see both the app (calender and contacts.apk), however for each there is also a file with ... provider.apk for each.
Do I need to copy both?
Do I need to "install" both and set persmissions for both?
If someone could walk me through specifically what to do and in what order that would be great.
Thanks very much for any assistance that can be provided.

Visit goo.im. and search for goo.app & download the newest one for your particular ROM.

thanks but how do I know which one will work with my phone and ROM?
Is it just based on the android OS version and not specific phone and ROM version?
For example I am on an ICS Energy ROM for an HTC Amaze.
Would I just take the CM 9 version (201204029)?
I presume I can flash it from my 4ext recovery?
Will it just install all GAPPS and leave my current calender and contacts app there as well?
Can or should I remove them or just leave them?
Thanks for your help and suggestion.

Download the apps u want , make sure u have a nandroid backup extracthe apps u want to use. Use root explorer and copy the app over to system apps then paste & reboot. Note some aosp apps won't work with sense .

Not sure how AOSP apps will work with a SENSE rom, only have xp installing on a CM rom. So, make backup in 4ext (of existing rom) just in case installing 'em screws things up.

How can I replace a default CyanogenMod 10 ROM apps by those which are included in JeallyBean ROM ?
There is a pic attached to this post, i want replace highlighted apps on the left by those on the right, is it even possible without reinstalling the whole rom from zero ?
Thanks
I believe you require the touchwiz apps on your CM10 rom. If this is the case I suggest you look in the themes and apps thread. One of the reasons for CM10 rom is to have the a pure Google experience with improvement tweaks and features without touchwiz.
All the best in your search
