[Q] Sim Toolkit - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know that in several country Sim toolkit is not important thing,.. Since it is also have featues for mobile banking, I thing, it is become an important thing.
I have found Sim Toolkit (STK.apk) in several Rom, but sometimes, when updating the Rom, the apk is gone, with no way to install the apk.
I am aslo understood that it is because of changing base Rom etc.
Why dont The STK.apk developper just make universal apk, that can be used in any Rom?
Make it Simple for everybody will be a good investment
Sorry for bad English and Double post

You have to ask the developer that question .
But i think you mean the app that is supplied by the network provider .
jje

you can still use it in any rom, extract it from any rom that has it and paste it to system/app in your current rom

pardon me but whats so impt abt this apk? I uninstalled it since Day 1 and so far nv encounter any problem.

[Q] T-Mobile Vibrant Avatar And Sims 3

I recently switched roms and lost the Avatar launcher and the Sims 3.apk.
I know you can open Avatar through the gallery but that's not as good for showing off.
Can anyone send me a link to download them, or maybe rip them off your device?.
I really miss them.
There are many ways to solve this.
First, is search the forum.
Second, know something about his, download a stock rom and pull it for yourself.

I am having a similar problem trying to install Avatar. I am running Bionix Final - Sims 3 installs fine, Avatar is a no go. I tried to copy it into /system/app using Root Manager - rebooted and it still does not appear... any ideas?
I don't really know, I'm still a noobie to this android stuff. I just pushed it into system/app/ using ADB, and it worked for me. I'm using fusion 1.1.

Is that Bionix a Froyo build?
I've posted a modified Avatar.apk that looks for the movie in the proper location on Froyo ROMs. It's tested on Onyx ROM, but should work on any Froyo ROM. It's here if anyone still looking for a workaround about this and the apks posted above don't work for you.
On avatar it says application not installed...? Also when I download it where does it download the file?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I get a file not found when launching the avatar apk. I'm running macnut12. Hmmm, maybe I deleted the movie in the internal sd by mistake. Reverting back from a stock froyo (e.g. Eugene's unofficial froyo) through Odin should fix this issue. Am I correct?

Is that directed at me? Do you mean on your phone? Downloads from the web should end up in a folder called Downloads on the internal sdcard. From there copy with root explorer or adb to the proper location (/system/app)
Sims 3
When I had this issue I had lost the entire Sims 3 game and not just the launcher. The second post only includes the launcher apk, so I will attach both. I am only reattaching the launcher just in case the one posted somehow does not work with the launcher posted prior.
FYI - I pulled these from my stock dump I made before I loaded my first custom ROM, and from what I have heard they will work ONLY on the T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant SGH-T959 and nothing else.
It may not matter, but I think it is best to install them in order. Also since the max upload on apk (for me at least) is 8Mb and the game is 74Mb I am putting them into an archive first and doing an external link, so you will need 7zip or something similar.

Sims 3 parsing error on samsung vibrant
Can someone help me. I keep getting a parsing error everytime i open my sims 3 on my samsung vibrant.

These are standard APK files. Basically they are Android installer packages. What to do with them or how to install them are basic aspects of using Android. If you plan on using an Android device as anything beyond a basic consumer device you should take the time to understand these basics because putting them here is beyond the scope of this thread.
This should help.
ok so i got it. but now when i use app installer to install the application it says parse error

So do you have a T-mobile Vibrant SGH-T959? It absolutely will not work if you don't.
Did you install both APK files in the correct order for Sims 3?
Are you using a custom ROM? It may not work in all ROMs. If you are using a AOSPish ROM like Macnut I don't know if it will work, because AOSP is built from the (Android Open Source Project) and not from Samsung/T-mobile firmware.
I have only tested this to work on Bionix and Auxra ROMs myself.
I have a samsung vibrant... I am using android 2.2 i have no custom rom installed.. do i need to rename it are something. what is the order of the sims 3 apk. can u list a step by step instruction list on how to do this..

Something is wrong with your statement. Maybe I should have been more explicit in my questions. This only works for US T-mobile Vibrants. It is an exclusive item that was (non-exclusive version now available in the market for $4.99 http://www.appbrain.com/app/the-sims™-3/com.eamobile.sims3_na_qwf) only available on US T-mobile Vibrants. This package only restores Avatar and Sims 3 for those who lost it, it does not provide it to those that should not have it.
Here are the problems with your statement:
You can not be using a stock firmware and also be using 2.2. Sorry you have to pick one as T-mobile has not pushed a OTA 2.2 out yet. This is not for Bell customers or other non United States phones.
There is no reason for you to have lost these packages if you are not running a custom ROM as they are not uninstallable.
So as you can see, there is something very fishy with your story. If you are just confused and not lying about your situation then you are running a custom ROM or you would not have lost these. In this case try re-downloading the files, use the link in my first post (Post #13) and you would have to be really confused to not figure out the order to install because they are numbered. If it can not parse these then either your download is corrupt, you are missing one of the two installs, or phone is not a United States SGS-T959.

[Q] want to do my own rom... what do i need?

hello
i want to create my own rom for the xperia x10
what programs do i need for that?
and can i modify an existing rom? want to understand how making roms works first, so my question is if i download a custom rom, can i modify it for my personal purposes? for exampe by removing some apps...
thanks for ur help
Taking out apps is easy.. use titanium backup. Ifyou want to mix them use a kitchen. If you want to build one use linux and download google source and edit.

[Q] About Cynogenmod 7.1-cooper-KANG-BETA Android 2.3.5

Hi guys , i just installed cynogenmod & found that many google apps like market arent working correctly . In my case whenever i try to download any thing from market it says that therewas some problem in downloading & nothing seems to happen. I would really like if someone can help me out . Also , i seem to be missing the multiple delete option and themes in messaging app from Samsung. Any way i can use Samsungs messaging & contact list ?????
the sms theme is not "missing", its how the way its is in cm messaging app. no u cannot use messaging app from samsungs rom, it require its own framework, wont work with cm. use other third party messaging app like gosms, handcent or chompsms. those third party messaging app had theme customization till the very font color, not just bubble color like default samsungs messaging.
btw i cant understand why u guys had that many problem with gapps. for me its working flawlessly.
It's because they don't bother to read. Google apps are already in the rom. Market for example is frozen on first start but defrosted when you connect to the internet.
There is always problem with new market application. Better u switch back to older version. I advice version 2.3.4.
(Version 2.3.4 is for Andriod market version and not Gingerbread 2.3.4.)

I would say that happened because you flashed gapps. It's not necessary at all to do that. The market works fine from the original zip.

You have to convert kies backup contacts into .vcf format and import it to contacts from SD card.Follow this ...

He doesn't. And richorich, I recommend you going back to whatever ROM you had before and wait until the CyanogenMod port gets more stable. This kinda testing's a little bit tough on newbies, so don't stress yourself and trying reading around the forums so you can learn; I recommend you surfing on the Dev Forums. Cheers.

Hey first of all,do a fresh wipe of the dalvik cache through the recovery.If the problem still persists,then flash the STOCK ICS through SEUS or Flashtool(better).Do not debloat through any software.If you want to,then download the app called 'system app mover' on the playstore(requires root).This should help.
Thanks
Debloating won't cause it. That's for sure.

OK.Well in that case may I know the process which you have used for debloating?I suggest you debloat using the system/app mover app.I think there is some hardware problem then in your device(do the other custom roms cause the same problem?).Or there would be a problem in the simlock.ta.Please try reflashing the simlock.ta partition again through the flashtool.Otherwise follow the method which i told you:
1.Re-install the STOCK rom(obviously ROOTED,done by downgrading to GB and then using 'Xperia-ROOT' for rooting and then upgrading to ICS by flashing the rom with wipe data option disabled.....you may be knowing this.
2.Then use system/app mover and uninstall the system apps you don't want.
I think that should help.However,if you wish to find out as to 'WHY THIS IS HAPPENING IF DEBLOATING IS NOT THE PROBLEM BY YOUR METHOD' i don't have any answer.
I think I helped as much as I could.Please press THANKS if I helped.
