I like the performance of the stock JB ROM, but Samsungs apps well and truly suck. Is there a way to flash the vanilla versions? Thanks.

If you don't want to root, then most are on Google Play Store. Eg search for Android 4.1 Jellybean Calendar (by Tim Hutt).

Thanks, just what I have been looking for. The Samsung calendar is so ugly. I took it hard switching from a GNX in this department. Love my S3, but will never be a fan of TW.

I'm already rooted, so if there's better solutions I'm all ears. Thanks!
What i was doing was downloading a CM10 nightly, and copy/renaming the apps over...
Could only do this for email, Exchange, MMS and Calender. Email causes FC so need to wipe cache on app etc.
Works 100%. Easier still, drop them into the ROM before flashing.
Or bite the bullet with the latest CM10 in all its JB glory now source was released.

It should be possible to swap most apks, but Im also interested if there is a good faq that works with TouchWiz phones.
Sent from a gadget...
Rename the original system app and replace and install with the new app but remaned the same as what the original was.
Works with email, calender, sms/mms, etc.
Remove Calendar, mail etc and flash "gapps" from CM. Or select the ones you want from the zip and transfer those apk's to system/apps manually (not forgetting permissions).
There are many ways.
Search and investigate

Ive tried out many roms both aokp and aosp as well as stock, but is there a rom out there that is just pure ics? Eg stock minus touchwiz and Samsung apps and nothing else changed?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
Try the likes of SlimICS in the Original Android Development section. It, however, has quite a few apps removed, or you could use a stock ICS ROM, install Apex Launcher, and Root Explorer, delete Samsung Apps and the Touchwiz Launcher and keep all your favourites. Simple!

There is actually a rom called "pure ics", Did you even bother searching?
Why would you even want pure ICS when you can have CM9?
Clearer definitions needed.
By "pure ICS" and "stock" do you mean AOSP-like or the stock firmware that came on the handset in the first place?

AOSP like would be ultimate. Just a stock 4.0.3 rom that has had all samsung addons removed. Basically what a Galaxy Nexus has. All of the custom roms I have seen (even the so called Pure ICS rom) have been modified to perform better or adjust battery life, themed etc.
I would just like to try a pure ics as released by Google, I'd that's possible. Thank you.

Hey Guys,
I found these over in the Galaxy Nexus forum but it works with my PA 2.53 Nov.4 build. Its the Full google apps for 4.2 Jelly Bean including: the Launcher, Gmail, calendar, clock, ringtones, wall papers, camera, gallery, keyboard, and playstore 3.9.17. I found only one issue so far and its that the launcher doesn't show a tab in my settings so i can modify homescreen settings and whatnot. You can still use the original that comes with the ROM though. Its pretty cool so check em out and let me know if you see the same issue i did or any others and try to post what ROM your using and your kernal) if its different than the one that came with the ROM (ex//im using PA 2.53 Nov.4th with the KKX. 12 kernal) so others can help as best as possible.

Its not the video player that is broken its the recorder, it doesnt seem to be supported or something for some reason. I just download camera ICS for video recording and it works fine. The camera and gallery would be worth it to me but along with that you just get an updated version of Gmail and other google apps. It's cool if you're into staying up to date with the newest and greatest.

This one? The one that has the gapps listed in the first post? 4.2 gapps will just cause you problems with the camera, and it's a downgrade from the 4.1 camera.
Some one already posted this. No need for another thread.
A little search will take you very far

yes, cause i use official 4.1 apps and this are some 4.2 apps like new gmail with pitch and zoom, i take a look at the apps and maybe i merge some in my gapps pack.
Just installed the new Clock app. Nice, works great, looks great. Just be sure to delete (backup before) the old clock. It's enough to go to /system/apps an rename the old DeskClock.apk to .xyz as well. If you keep both apps alarm settings will FC. Oh, and reboot after install.
There are more great apps from 4.2, that work great on our Defy.
4.1 and 4.2 don't have big framework changes, that's why most of them had to work.
maybe we need a thread which apps works and which not.

I know its a lot of work, but for your next update can you just make an Aroma, so in 1 zip we have options to flash extras like offline voice recognition files, 4.2 launcher, etc and the option to not flash/uninstall apps we don't want like Google Music, Sound Search, etc?

Galaxy S guys say it works... they don't gave a gyroscope too. It's really slow, but Photosphere does work on Galaxy S... so maybe you should try it out, and maybe it'll work for you too.

Cyanogenmod issue need help !!!
i recently installed the Cyanogenmod 10.1 on my GT-I9305 but after the i realized that the old storage is gone "internal storage" so it says that i am using more than 50% from it even it's a clean install meaning the old data are still there and i am not able to see them , so i went to the recovery mode and the old files and date were there and a new folder with name (0) has the new apps and data , so the question here is how can i view the old data storage so i can move them to the new one , or to view them on my computer , i am new in XDA so i couldn't post it on the Cyanogenmod forum . thanks in advance
This is not I9305 forum .

Personally , I am very happy with SlimBean (AOSP) as it delivers speed and gives me all features I want. The only thing I miss is the AllShare app for my AllShare Cast Dongle. Regarding camera, the AOSP 2.6 app gives most of the Samsung TW features, for Samsung S Planner, I use the stock Google Calendar App and for Music I use Poweramp, maybe try them, Poweramp got a free version as well.
To enable Bookmarks sync in CM 11 4.4.2 AOSP Browser, install the attached apk as a normal app, then go to accounts- Google and check "Browser". That's it, now your bookmarks will sync with the browser.
Work well on LX CM11 20140121 nightly! Thanks a lot!
EDIT:
Work on my nexus 7 2012 too. I think it's compatible with every 4.4.2 aosp browser
Works on my AT&T S4, but those are some shady-ass permissions. Are they all necessary?
Works great on my Galaxy Nexus on CM11
Just amazing! :victory:
Works on Note 3. Was very shocked to see this missing.

Hi georgeiulian89. Thanks for this.
If you have a TI backup from CM10 you can restore the app from there instead. Look for the app "Google Bookmarks Sync" (com.google.android.syncadapters.bookmarks) and restore. I've checked mine and the amount of permissions it has is crazy.
thanks man

Chrome for mobile needs some serious work. Whenever I have it installed, it screws up my phone's ability to save my choice for default app. Everytime I open a link, youtube video, etc., it asks me what to use, 'Internet' 'Chrome' or 'Youtube' yes I cleared cache and data for all 3 apps. It's either a TouchWiz glitch or a chrome glitch, either way stock browser + this apk = awesome. No clue why 'Internet' sync is missing in KitKat, very odd.
This apk worked perfectly for me on Verizon Note 2, i605 running KitKat 4.4.2. Thanks OP :good:
