Well as title says, I'm wondering why the Samsung contacts app is never ported? We have tw framework and many other apps so could someone explain why we can't have the contacts app?
(I likes it in case you didn't guess)

I read somewhere that ICS added the ability to assign a tone to am individual contact. Is this the case with SG3 or not? I couldn't figure it out and googling didn't seem to help (which means someone will post an easily found link).
I know there are apps like Go SMS and others that do this, but I wanted to know if I could do this within the ICS system. Thanks!

No one else interested in this? Is Ringo a good app to use if said feature is gone?
I'd like to know who to do this as well
Its not possible to use this feature as is not available stock, only by using a 3rd party mms app. Not even pure aosp ICS has this feature.
I don't think this is an ICS feature, but Handcent SMS can do this easily.

Hello,
I was wondering if I could replace Samsung's messaging app with Google's SMS/MMS app or just install Google's. I really prefere Google's one but for some reason I want to keep a Samsung-based ROM (not for Touchwiz launcher, but some apps like the Camera with no shutter lag, S-Memo which I use with my C-Pen,...)
Yes you can, but you need first remove the stock messaging app

How can I replace it with Google's SMS/MMS app ? Where can I download it and will it work with my Touchwiz-based ROM ?
You can pull the apk out of CM10 build.. Push it in system/app after renaming.. But keep in mind your smses will not be threaded..

Try this.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/....com.android.mms&feature=search_result#?t=W10.
I was going to use it myself but decided to stick with handcent which i've been using since GBread.
I expect you can do with this app what i done with handcent, - go into stock app - setting disable notifications, go to app manager the disable the stock message app - setup notifications on new message app and you should be good to go.
The dev also got the google calender etc too.
Hope this helps and works - let us know :good:

I extracted my MMS apk from my cm10 ROM, download it: http://db.tt/kCXioNLo
then use root explorer to copy it to system/app folder.
Then you set the right permissions (all of the first row checked and first of second row only, if in doubt check on the other apps permissions and set the same)
And the look for Semms.apk (or something like this), backup and delete it

I made a flashable cwm package for you .
It does every thing itself.
enjoy,
Thanks all ! But i've no thread in sms/mms, you have an idea ?
You will not get threaded messages in aosp messaging app.. Use the app someone posted from the market.. It is modded to be used in Stock roms

Is there really no way to have threads with the original file ? I remember when I got the Galaxy Nexus for a week, I had threads on my SMS/MMS app. With the app on Android Market I'm having issues with LightFlow and the unread count from Apex Launcher doesn't work

I'm currently on the Sprint S3, and I flashed your package. All went well, but when I tried to send a picture message, it force closed the app. When I tried to re-open the thread, it just force closes.
Btw, is there any way to get the little message icon in the lockscreen for this replacement? I miss being able to slide outward on that message icon to be presented with the latest thread.
I have been searching for the past week or so, to no avail, for the AOSP contact app, and possibly phone app also, that is modified to read phone only contacts instead of your Google contacts.
Is there one out there already for 4.2 or is there a way to enable this on my current contact app? I'm going to look with SQLite Editor in a bit to see if there is a modification I can make that will allow it, but if you know how to enable it, know how to edit it in somehow (I don't mind doing it myself), or anything that would be of help please please please post it.
I know I can use a third party so to do this but I would rather not if I can avoid it.
P.S. I'm running VRB 6-12 in case that info helps.

So I'm pretty much an idiot, I tried finding out how to make the contacts app just sync my VCF card...... Anyway my issue was that even though I told Google not to sync ANYTHING it was still syncing contacts, I wiped the, all out and turned everything to do with sync off and imported ,y contacts and everything works!
Sorry for being a schmuck, I'm having a off week.

I've searched and searched but can't seem to find an apk for s planner. I'm running paranoid 4.3 and I'm used to the look of my old stock Samsung calendar. Anyone mind sending me a link? Hopefully it'll show my agenda as Google isn't showing everything for some reason. Thanks in advance...

You van get from the E4GT one stop shop.
X'd out the game
You can choose which calender to display in Google Calendar. The Samsung calendar can only be used on stock touchwiz based Roms and the widget will only show up with the touchwiz launcher.
