I am not entirely sure if this is an original request in here, or if it even belongs in here, so please dont kill me if I am wrong, just advise me whar to do next...
But, I am currently running DaGr8's ICS Aplha 2 rom, and noticed that the allshare app is missing, as well as a few others... Now I am also not entirely sure that these apps will work in this scenario, but if they will, or if they can be made to work, that would be awesome... i have also noticed that the photo editor appears to be missing, both of these apps are ones that I use pretty heavily, and would feel a bit more comeplete if I had them, but if they wont work on ICS, then they won't and I will just have to wait til the official OTA hits.
***Edit: if someone IS able to fullfill this request, would you be able to make a zip flashable in CWM for all apps, and then I can just peacemeal them myself through TiBu?

I'll second that request! if only for the photo editor that came stock with the i717.
I put a request in the NOOB forum and haven't heard anything yet...
I'm on stock deodexed 4.1.2.
I do have the Samsung apps on my phone, I don't know how to extract them for you, but the Photo Editor in particular is a crippled version without the features of the one that came with the phone on Android 2.3.6

Here is the Samsung PhotoEditor that works with I717 4.1.2. Just install like a normal app.

After doing a bit of searching I think we're looking for a file called "com.sec.android.mimage.photoretouching-1.apk" with a size of 10-12MB but I haven't confirmed this yet or tested it, downloading a version I found right now...
https://www.dropbox.com/s/auvwb5sjr3ee82b/com.sec.android.mimage.photoretouching-1.apk
The one I posted is 12mb, integrates with photo gallery and has Spen edit support. I think the photo retouching apk is what it was called on GB & ICS.

Thanks for the quick help, unfortunately both of the links are for similar versions of the same apk, and are not the one I was looking for.
I don't even know for sure if the editing I was doing was on the stock image editor, but the app allowed the use of a magic wand to select areas of a photo, transform the area to resize an object and fill any voids left by shrinking, etc...
I can't find anything on the market or Samsung market so I thought maybe it was left off of Samsungs updated image editor?

I was like you guys and tried searching for the app. I found a few, installed them but they only partially worked. Even on the stock 4.1.2 they weren't fully functional.

Hello folks
I want to create live wallpapers for sale on the android market. I found a custom creator script and a lwp creator software that does this but I don't think it signs them. Now I am not sure if those could be sold on the market or not. I am still very new to android.
At the moment I am trying to start small, something simple like a looped animation sequence and make that a live wallpaper...just plain, with no settings. So what would be a good way to approach this mission ?
You could try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739512. You could even try to make them on your phone with this: http://android.ownskin.com/livewallpaper.
Can I sell the apk that I get from custom creator or is there something I need to do before I upload it.

Make sure it's signed.
That's all ? Man thats simple. Here I was readying myself thinking I'm gonna need to brush up my old coding skills. Very nice. Thanks guy.
I would like to pack 2 live wallpapers in one apk. Is this possible ?
No, it's not unless you make an app which will allow selection of whichever one the user wants.
That sucks. I figured I'd provide 2 wallpapers as a pack for $0.99 because they are simple with no settings. There is no other way ?
I suppose I'll start with single ones and then eventually make an app.
Ok so I did some experiments, first apk was 80mb, second was 40mb and the newest one is like 400kb only. But it lags a lot. How do I optimize ?

Have you tried zipaligning them? See here: http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/zipalign.html.
I am just beginning installing eclipse and the steps that follow. I am still not sure how to open the apk to view what the code is. I was hoping I could see this code and then implement it in eclipse using a fresh project. Main thing I want to find out is how the image sequence loading is implemented. I guess I will post back here in a few days.
Should I code this in ICS or get the sdk files for 2.1 and do it on that ?

It depends on what you want. If you only want ICS (and later android versions to come) devices to support your wallpapers, then you can go ahead and code it in ICS. If you want a wider range of support (for now), then your 2nd option is best.
Well ideal case would be its backwards compatible. I've been reading and says ics has new api's...but I'm hoping the wallpaper and related services are backwards compatible. Its okay if its not, I get to learn at least.

It sure does, but most of them are not backward compatible. Notice only a few (approximately 3) apps built for ICS worked on Gingerbread so the chance is very small that they will support backward compatibility. They may be the same services, etc., but many will still require the ICS+ framework.
Interesting...so that means its safer to start from 2.1 for more than just backwards compatibility reasons. I just tried to grab api7 in sdk manager and it gave me error for file not found. Should I do 2.3.3 ?
Fixed it, 2.1 ready to go. Thanks.

This thread has served its purpose. Request mod to lock it.
I am sorry if this is somewhere on the fourms but I wasnt able to find what I was looking for. I currently downloaded the eclipse rom 2.0.4 on my x2 and when I go to take a picture, I cannot do the upload or share function on it, it says there is no application to perform this action. Note I did run the v7 script too a few days ago, but I was having this issue before it. However found out that I can go to the gallery app and do it that way but I can as said share from the camera itself. I was wondering if this is something anyone came across? Also if this was on a forum somewhere that I missed please let me know and ill check it out. And if this is something that isnt a normal thing, id like to know if there is any fixes for it?
Thanx in advance.
that's because u are looking at the pic thru the hacked blur preview
go into the actual gallery and u can choose share from there
oops
sorry
didn't read entire post
yea its a normal thing
the.preview pic from inside camera opens up a hacked blue preview, and due to all the blue sharing components being removed it gives u that error

thanx ashclepdia for the information. I was able to get by that issue by just downloading the AOSP Camera from Eclipse roms site. It works just what I want and now better.
Hi all,
I have just installed lightning rom 2.5 and I have noticed that under both Phone and Contacts, there are missing tabs.
e.g.
Under Phone, the contacts tab is missing. I used to be able to slide to the right for more tabs.
How do I go about adding more tabs?
I tried searching but every time I add the word "tab" I get the Samsung Galaxy Tablet threads instead.
Also, under Security, the "SIM Change Alert" and "Remote controls" doesn't seem to be working, every time I tried checking the box, it freezes for awhile and then it says the setup has stopped working.
I wanted to post this in the lightning rom thread, but there's a 10 post restriction, and as such, I am posting here.
I hope someone can kindly help me.
Thanks in advance.

I don't know about remote control or sim change alert, but it is a well known change in ICS that those tabs are removed purposely, in their infinite wisdom. I don't agree with it, but it is what it is. One of the many reasons I'm staying on Gingerbread until find an overwhelming reason to go to ICS.
So if this ROM is ICS based, that's your answer.

That's cause Nexus S is running AOSP android, and Galaxy S series (including the GS2) runs TouchWiz, which Samsung, in their infinite wisdom, have modded to their liking.
Edit to add: Lite'ning ROM is based on Samsung stock, so it uses the same system apps. This will hold true for any ROM based on Samsung stock, unless the ROM chef changes out specific apps, like the phone in this case.

Thanks for the clarification. I am new to android and have been reading up on how to root/flash custom Rom on my TF201, SG2 and NS one by one. Took me several hours of reading and searching, but I have managed to get them all rooted/flashed without bricking any of them
This forum is loaded with heaps of info, but sometimes it's a bit hard to search for some specific stuff;the 10 post limitation on custom rom threads make it hard for me to ask for help from the author.
Just wondering... if S2's lite'ning ROM is based on Samsung stock (non AOSP), how do people change out specific apps?

You need to be rooted, and you replace certain apk files in the /system/app folder. But you need to be certain to use files compatible with your particular build of Android.

I also had this problem. Found the fix on the Litening rom forum under Problems and questions.
I would link the page to you but since i am a new user, i am unable to lol.
Basically there is a zip file that u can flash which lets u add a samsung account and enables the remote settings features. ive tried it on litening rom 2.5 and it worked for me

Ah, cool, thanks for the link.
Going to flash to 2.7 first. I hope I don't have to do clear it to factor settings again.
Found this application which was once only on i-application(iphone) working fine on our touchpad and yes it also plays good on my LG optimus one too. It is like google currents but a little different in work around. Enjoy the port.
Here is the app
Press thanks if I helped.........
no offense but I'm pretty sure i've seen this posted somewhere else..u might wanna give credit to the original poster who yanked this from the sg III launch event..

yes you are right but most of the posts and topics look nice, neat and clean.
and I think something is still better than nothing....
what do you say?
compared to the browser....you'd have to argue the need for this, it was designed for the phone (GS3) and all that's been done is ported from there. If they developer made a bespoke tablet version then it'd be nice. but hey, thats my beef with ICS at the moment, many apps are stretched and look wrong
I like it alot.... Thanks for sharing,I hadn't seen the other thread so glad to have the app on my og evo and touchpad

Someone was working on a version where they adjusted the fonts to make them look better on a tablet but I never saw the actual package posted.

I was working on it.... Never got it right, as it appears I was only able to change the UI fonts. The article fonts themselves appear to be set remotely and just displayed locally. So it didn't even fix the biggest issue with the fonts which is in the articles themselves. It only fixed the UI and header fonts. I was going to post the APK anyway, but I found a force close error when trying to add new feeds, so that made things not so nice. Add to that the fact that for some reason, the APK wasn't installable unless I re-signed it, that makes it difficult to switch between versions without uninstalling/reinstalling, I decided not to post the modified APK.
If a developer type wants, I can send the modified APK directly. I'm not going to post it here because it's A) not stable and B) didn't achieve the intended purpose anyway, and C) I don't want to have to support something that's broken/unfinished.
Anyone that knows how to decompile/recompile an APK can do the same thing I did. All I did was reduce the font sizes in the XML layout and values files. As I said though, that didn't have any effect on the actual article content, which appeared to be defined remotely.
Can thiIS this app be installed over AOKP? if yes, does anyone have the APK? it was included in the task rom...can i just pull it out from there?
This is no warez forum...
the OP simply might not realize that it's warez, though. After all, it came free with the stock ROM and it's also included in Galaxy Task since that is based off of the stock ROM.
but yeah, to OP: this is considered warez and is a no go on these forums. Think of it as part of Samsungs touchwiz package. Since you decided to go pure android, you decided not to use Samsungs horrible UI but you have to live with Quickoffice not being free. Use whatever means you like to obtain it, but don't tell us ;-)

didn't realize its warez, on the samsung based rom it was included, but not fully registered.
anyway consider this thread closed, i'll just purchase the app...thanks for informing me
*cough, can't as taiwan blocked play store apps.....wish they can consider pay pal
I have quick office, docs2go, but have recently been using "cloud on". I definitely recommend that as I'm finding it as functional as the other two. It's also free!
but cloud on also requires another registration and username. I installed it, was asked to register an account and instantly uninstalled it. I'd even assume that it therefore requires an online connection to be usable, but that was just an assumption as I didn't even want to bother with another account that I'll probably never use anyways, given that I have a pretty nice sollution already pre-installed on my tab.

Well, download tasks ROM, use a root explorer to extract the apk from system/apps, then sideload that apk on your new(er) rom.
OR
When on tasks ROM do a titanium backup of ALL apps, save the backup folder, flash a new ROM, install from the backup
If your original stock ROM came with the same gimped version, I do not think retrieving it this way is unethical. My tab came with polaris office though, didn't know other countries came with something different.

Task14 is based off Honeycomb, while AOKP is working with ICS. It's a crap shoot if QuickOffice will work on it. Good Luck!
I purchased quickoffice and have it running on my Desire (gingerbread), stock tab 10.1 (honeycomb 3.2), AND I purchased it for my Son who is running it just fine on his transformer prime (ics).
In short, buy it and you will not be dissapointed, it will work on ics, and unlike the gimped freemium / bloatware version that shipped with your tab a purchased version will see regular updates.
The main point, the purchased version runs great on gb, hc, and ics.
