Hey guys, just jumped from WB3.7 to 4.0, I also flashed the XLoud and Bravia patch. Unfortunately I've lost the stock messaging app. It's definitely not just the shortcut but while asp that's missing, as I get an FC when I attempt to text from phone book
Can someone point me to anywhere I can download the messaging app from, I'm hoping to flash through xrec, and download straight to phone. Cheers gents
maybe u can try to get WB 5, check it out! He just released
Search on your rom flashable zip, open it with winRar and find on system-app, search for nessaging.apk or conversation.apk, then extract it and move it to your sd card.
Then copy to system/app using root explorer (dont forget to change system permission to r/w) and change permission to rw- r-- r--.
Reboot.

I recently flashed nims11 infinity final and want to change the default music player to the one which is on cm7 by FAT
How should I go about doing that?

Well i think (yes i use i think because i do that one time and not really sure if it the best method ) you have to get root explorer then enter on it go to /system/app then here delete the stock music player you have then remplace it by the one you want. Ok i detail pick the music player apk you want put it on your sdcard then just paste it on /system/app (using root explorer of course) and install it (before you have delete the stock one so the music player by default will be the one you have choose). Maybe you have to set permission (by mont r/w something like that sorry if i'm imprecise but i do it one time and i really want to help you but normally it will work).maybe you have to reboot for the change take effect . hope i help you
*Sorry if my english is bad
paste that music player in
system/app
and change permission
Hi there everybody!
I did flash my sgs3 as this guide tells me too:

And after i replaced the "SamsungCamera.apk" with HyperX nice modded one
and i run "adb shell chmod 755 /system/app/SamsungCamera.apk"
and then reboot but i still can't get the new functions to work??
i got shuttersound on the camera still ?? :/
Wonder what i am doing wrong...
Nevermind this, i got it to work but the shutter audio is not disabled ??
The shutter sound is part of the rom, not the apk. You need to delete it yourself if you don't like it. It's in /system/media/audio/UI

Thankyou!!!
Yes i hate the shutter sound lol
Having trouble getting mine to work,
removed the samsung.apk and odex files and moved the modded samsung.apk to the app folder. set the permissions to rw- r-- r--
restarted the phone and nothing no camera app anymore?
Im rooted and on the stock rom.
I really want to replace S Planner with the ASOP calendar app. Tried Installing the ASOP calendar but no luck.
Also im not great with adb and such, would be awesome if there was a flashable zip. Im running the leaked LH7 JB (omega)
Any help would be very much appreciated!
hey guys, I'm having problems with my s-calendar to.
In fact the application does not open and is giving force close after I made the updade to Jellybean
Somebody have the app to provide us?
I'm using the same JB XXDLH7.
Thx!!
Check my sig. Install calendar from aosp folder. Push apk with adb and set the permissions. Or copy file to /system/app with es file.explorer and set rw- r-- r-- permission. reboot and done.

so to load a new launcher for root users:
1. Root Your Device!
2. Using a root explorer like es file explorer or root explorer mount system R/W
3. Grab the all for whatever you want from wherever you have it, and just copy it into you /system/app/ folder
4. Re-name the "Launcher.apk" application in the /system/app/ to "Launcher1.apk"
5. Voila you can now use any launcher in the system app folder-->note you may need to reboot

There is no need to rename the launcher.apk. After another launcher is installed you will be given the choice of which launcher you want to set as default, you can change back to stock launcher by clearing the defaults of the custom launcher. Better to not change system files if you dont have to. After you move the new launcher to system/app folder change the permissions to rw-r--r--.

Would you need to rename the new launcher to anything special, or is setting these permissions and/or placing into this directory enough?

Nope, I just got a special/stupid kfhd, that wouldn't work unless launcher was renamed.

Alright,
1st, device spoofer will cause BOOTLOOPS!!!! so don't buy!
(I learned this the hard way)
so this isn't really a mod but if you boot-looped your device by messing with build.prop than here is a quick fix:
1.Make sure you have adb set up nice for your fire by following the amazon developers @ https://developer.amazon.com/sdk/fire/getting-started.html AND that you have the orignal build.prop file
Make sure you read the entire page verbatim, especially if your a mac user, because all the answers are either on the page or in the links
2.You either will need to have temp root or have already been rooted.
3. Make sure the device is actually reaching adb, check this by waiting until the sparkly kindle fire logo comes up, and then doing adb devices
4. Down to Business: Turn on the fire and wait until you reach sparkly kindle fire logo.
5.Navigate to platform-tools folder and place your original build.prop file there
6.type
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv build.prop /system/build.prop
exit
exit
reboot
7. If you already kept a backup of the original build.prop file on the device, than change the mv line to
Code:
mv /system/build.prop.bak /system/build.prop
-->and there ya go, post if you have problems

Hi,
Will this replace this awful carousel thing ? And therefore, redirect the home button ?
Sorry, i'm not a native english speaker, i don't understand the "Grab the all for whatever you want from wherever you have it".
Does it mean that i copy the new launcher's apk file to /system/app/ ? And do i have to install the new launcher ?
Thanks

Download a launcher from the play store
With a file manager move the apk from /data/app/ folder (It will be named differently than you are used to, usually has the company or developers name instead) to /system/app/ folder then reboot.
No need to change permissions as they are the same coming from /data/app/ folder

Are there any alternates to the soft button bar like a stock jb one or something? Or can we not do that because of the odex? I know it's systemui.apk I tried installing a cm9 systemui.apk on my kf2 and system/app rwrr but on reboot all I got was black screen. I backed it up and restored it with adb so I know what i'm doing... for the most part. Sorry for an y random spaces or periods... swype doesn't like furious tapping on the kf2. Needless to say, I have swype as default keyboard and launcher pro as launcher.
Well, I tried the same wpthing with a similar result. My best guess is that it works off of framework res so...until there are custom ROMs we have to wait. But, I've been toying with an idea: if the favorite button on the saftbar was rewritten to display recent apps, e.g. that it always displays 8 apps from data list x, and data list x is a list constantly updated saying the most recent app. Then the app could be themed minorly to have the window over window PNG and voila: a little bit better stock ROM. My problem is that I'm not a coder of any kind, so its a slow process.

I could try to edit it for you. I don't have a Kindle Fire HD, so you'll have to upload me the framework-res.apk and test it for me. Make sure you backup before you test it though.

Has anyone figured out or tried to replace or disable stock search and get Google search to work. I've tried a few things with no luck. I would also like Google now.
For Google search, it's really tedious.
For it to work you have to rename the stock search to iforgothenameofit.apk.bak
Than you have to grab the Google search app from jelly bean gapps via goo.I'm, and push it to the system/app folder with permissions rw-r--r--
Than you have to push all the framework files, permission files, basically any other non-apk file to the folder of which it belongs.(you can get this from the whole zip file that you got from goo.I'm
MAKE SURE THAT EVERY FILE YOU PUT IN THE SYSTEM DIRECTORY HAD PERMISSION RW-R--R--
*This can actually be done with a root explorer fairly easily
