helloo all ,
can anyone attach me the phone.apk and contact.apk and the gallery of the stock Android ICS 4.0.3
can't you do it yourself? you know the names of the files right? why did you started a new thread?
Oddly enough I've had the same question -- some hints on where to loop, keywords to search would be helpful.
I see a lot of roms here with a variety of tweaks be it battery mods (which I've found the thread for), theming & the addition of the ICS base apps.
I'd quite like to know what I'm changing from the stock ROM -- and in fact keep both old and new (subject to space) -- so was planning to also install the contacts app...

Seems like one option is to download a rom which includes it, and then extract
here's a thread where someone has posted phone & contacts:

So are they modified in any way from what one would find on the Nexus S -- just thinking my son has one rnuning 4.0.3 so I could grab any apks from his device potentially

The actual download there was to http://www.4shared.com/rar/IdsXca6V/app.html

Looking on my SGS2 I already have Contacts.apk and ContactsProvider.apk (as well as the compiled odex files).
I wonder if it's safe to rename the ICS ones? Is the provider the same maybe? What is the best way of being able to run both contacts concurrently?
If you are unable to source these two apks then I suggest you have a lot more reading to do before posting in the development section.
This is not a place for questions.
Hey guys!
How do I create a stock-based rom? The only thing I found was this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1533740 But I don't know if it applies to Ace too.
Someone can confirm if this works? Also, If I just take a install-script from another ROM it will work? Or I'll need to write my own?
And, last but not least, for themeing, what files I need to change? Framework or tw-framework?
Okay that most things in that tut works some things are not 4 tha ace
scripts u can just add other scripts from roms no need 2 write own (ask permisions ofcorce)
Theme edit systemui.apk in system/app
edit framework-res.apk system/framework
edit twlauncher.apk system/app
and u can edit tw-framework if u wanna (not much 2 theme there)
HOPE I HELPED!!!
GOOD LUCK

I've made my first ROM using your tutorial as basis I need to know if there is something much different between building a CM7 rom and a stock ROM. Since stock roms always came with those other files (modem, phone, csc...), I need to know if I can just extract the system.rfs file, edit what I wand or what I need and made a flashable zip.
A bit off-topic question: where are the resources used on the lockscreen? framework-res.apk?
Quick Question: if I pick the apps that I have installed libs and put them on /system/lib, they will work?
For the lockscreen and other graphic (theme) edits check this tut, gives you a feel of where to screw with the framework-res.apk
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543059
The easiest thing to do is to replace .9.png files with those of other ROMS to personalize it. Editing the xml files takes some trial and error, but its easier than it seems.
Thank you! One more thing: The power menu, it is hard-coded or I can add options to it via xml editing?

If you want to add options to power menu,you need to edit android.policy.jar,framework.jar and framework-res.apk.Here is a guide on that. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811532 You might need to make a few changes to make it adapt,like change the string ids,and its GlobalActions$3 you should copy for ace,its GlobalActions$4.smali.

Just download a package from Odin.You will get a .tar.md5 file which you wont be able to extract,so rename the file to .tar Now,you will be extract it,after extraction,you will get many .img files like system.img,boot.img. Extract system.img,replace stock boot.img with Cf-root and thats about it.You could take the updater script from BlackHawk as it does the job most of the times.

I extracted the stock rom (system.rfs within the system files) and used the cf-root boot.img but my rom didn't start after flashing. I only saw the samsung galaxy ace logo and a blue triangle on the upper left corner of screen.
From the stocklite rom I used the updater-script. Maybe there is the fault?
Here the rom: Link
Please help me
Best regards

Hi,

I didn't copy the csc files into the system directory.
But i tried it with csc but without any success..
Please have a look over my rom..
Im very confused
PS: took the updater script from blackhawk and one other. Both are the same.

Thanks for the tip on the menu and all. Now I'll start to work on the ROM, but I'll still wait for the confirmation if the update script works!

Lol,updater script will work.Where do you think everyone takes updater scripts from? Its too big/dangerous to write up on your own,so what do you do,you take an existing one and modify it to work with your rom.Oh,and give credits to the original dev who wrote the updater script.
Hi,
I'm uploading the rom to mediafire now.
I give you the link when the rom is up in few minutes.
Thank you

How make playable Dchoc Cafe Sudoku (java) on android. How to convert this jar to apk game?
I try netmite getapk but after uploading files server, they send file to me with speed 10 bytes/s is crazy slow.

can u convert any app jar to apk ??
Porting.
Sadly, there isn't a magical button that converta a java .jar file into an Android application. However, .jar files can easily be ported over to Android because Android uses Java. Maybe you can contact the developer and request a port. I doubt he/she would respond. Simply put, no.
not as easy....
unless you can try your luck and give porting a go yourself, it won't be possible.........
If you're on gingerbread and rooted, jbed is the emulator app here on xda for jar to apk playing... however if you don't have hard keys.. your choice is either game keyboard or any free arrow keyboard..

Hi, I have struggled for several hours now and really could use some help please.
I have a Viewpad 10e which is not an officially supported device with Google. I have installed the only custom rom out there from Sidenk - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1320592&page=41
There is no contact/people icon on there. I used to have this working with the market apk on the stock ICS rom last year but due to a recent upgrade from Viewsonic that stuffed my system so I had to reinstall. I cannot for the life of me think how I did it but I've downloaded loads of different packages relating to googlecontactssyncadapter.apk, contacts.apk and contactsprovider.apk. Some of them install but do nothing, some of them say the package cannot be parsed, some say there's a conflicting signature.
At this stage I have no idea what to do, I've downloaded loads of files, spent hours searching on google, read lots of different forums too. This device is not well supported and I have no idea where I'm going wrong so any help is very much appreciated.
I take it by no replies I've asked an awkward question
Can anyone point me in the right direction of where I should be looking if people cannot help here please?
No takers at all?
probably no oone knows the answer because the device isnt officially supported
---------- Post added at 01:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ----------
first of all tell me the device model because due to all the extra text around it i cant tell what it is and ill try to find the stock rom for you to flash

Thanks but that's not the issue I'm having. The stock rom doesn't have Google contacts/people on it and never has. The custom rom never has. When I had the original gingerbread rom I managed to put on Google marketplace and contacts app on it. Later when ICS came out I managed to do it again.
Viewpad then released an auto update that kept nagging until I hit install. Then that wouldn't let me root so I went back to the custom rom Sidenk developed (he states set device as Asus Eeepad in his post to get more compatible apps on play). I thought all I had to do was update this with contacts.apk and googlecontactssyncadapter.apk but every version I have tried to install has come up 'application not installed' or unable to parse.
I know this device is capable of having contacts as I've done it before but I'm blown if I know how to now?
This has been driving my noodle potty for days now and I'd love some advice on what's likely to be going wrong :laugh:
Well I'm stumped. Been reading up on this area for days now and cannot get anywhere. Can no-one help at all?
Hi
In cm11 zip file (i.e. the installation file .zip eg:cm-11-20150107-NIGHTLY-falcon.zip), you can find the apk files from the zip in system/app folder or system/priv-app folder
But in cm12.zip, I can't find the app or priv-app folder in system/
I can only find build.prop file
Can you people help me to find the folder where all the installation apks are kept?

Part of the answer is I can see the system as large dat files in the root of the zip package. What I followed this link for was because I was hoping to find the answer, too. I'm going to try extracting the dat file(s), changing file extension to zip or some other common archive type and seeing if some common Android archive extracting apps will be able to open it. I'll report back if I have luck.
