New Gmail app - Defy Themes and Apps

Thought I'd share the latest GMAIL4.2 app
Which I found on xda couple of new features
Pinch to zoom swipe to archive
To install remove/delete existing gmail from system/ apps
Replace with this one set permission 0644 reboot
Sorry guys due to some reasons with android police they have been asked by Google to remove
The gmail4.2 apk from there site so I have removed this .

Thanks for the heads-up. For anyone interested here's the original thread with all the details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1934081

I thought about it, but seeing this app is signed by Google with a different key it will be problematic for people wanting to update Gmail via Play Store...
BTW I WILL include the new Play Store in gExperience!

Perhaps you should ask in the movie2k forums since that type of site is excluded from discussion on XDA.

No, I'm glad you did.

That's interesting.
I've had Google+ installed on multiple ROM's and have never seen that app. And I didn't know that installing one app could automatically install other app(s).

I just flashed my phone i got the same icon on my Galaxy S2. I guess it's a new android thing.
Looks like this might explain it.

Don't you know one apk can add two or more icons for different things? Like camera.apk in sense ROMs adds both camera and camcorder , like just gallery.apk adds gallery+camera on few jellybean. It could have been similar thing with Google+ though its not.
EDIT : I see you edited it yourself.

PS I got that icon too and I don't have Google +

An icon is one thing, but it was referenced in one of the posts above as a Google+ settings app. It doesn't appear to be that but instead an icon that gives access to the settings in Google Play Services 3.0.
I just cleared data for the "Google Play services" app and now I have the icon in my app drawer.

You shouldn't be recommending anyone use Aptoide, it's a warez infested gimp haven!
ABP can be found on F-Droid tho: http://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdid=org.adblockplus.android :good:

Yes, that is true, but APKs that cannot be found on google play is usually uploaded on aptoide. Its morals, and anyone with morals would support the developer and purchase their app.. Not to say i have not downloaded any paid apps without paying for them, but i definitely have donated and purchased apps that have saved my ass such as speedview when my speedo was not working.
I uses ad away it uses less battery

Offline? You need to download app for phone and browse/install apps from it. Suppose its online! The same app as google play.
I dont see any offline .apk links for PC. The only offline .apk rep I know is f-droid.org

Atleast that'll solve the problem he is having :thumbup: he could choose to Download the apk provided or use aptoide, I helped him out by suggesting an option, how did you assist him on his problem again?

Adblock Plus is available from the Amazon Store, why not just download it from there?
https://adblockplus.org/en/android-install
So, this [Adblock Plus for Android] will block annoying adds inside apps?
Is it recommended to also use the Adblock verion specifically for Firefox if you have this version installed?
Any issues using this alongside Android Firewall (besides the obvious one of needing to add Adblock to the whitelist so that it can download it's block list)?
Two other apps I'd recommend to anybody reading this thread: greenify and wakelock detector.

Is it safe to download and install direct apk not through market? (WhatsApp website)

Hi,
I don't want register with Google market on my phone, I was wondering if it safe to reach the whatsapp.com site, press download and put the apk on my device?
I did this but then I got a security warning which made me rethink my actions and consult you guys. So is it unsafe?

Well yea, but that's the thing I'm not sure about if it is safe using this apk which Google hasn't inspected (normally I'd be quite warry of such things)...
But ok, I got you guys, in this case I'll ignore the warnings.
Thank you!

If you download from Whatsapp official website then it is safe.
However if you download some app from other place, it MAY be harmful. Apps from Google Play are checked, but other place downloads are not checked.
But it is safe to download from OFFICIAL website of app.
Press Thanks if helped.

[Help]translation breaks app functions

Hi.
I translated the cloud app from iunios from Chinese to English. Compiled OK
Added resources to original apk.
Added to zip and flashed.
When I load cloud to sign in, everything is english. I enter my login and the app crashes. But I am still login.
Something is broken but can't figure out what.
Modded
https://mega.co.nz/#!6FUVzJrJ!ddaFe9VgTLWARr9wycHtMexrSWmKK_rLdKuwitVnHS8
Original
https://mega.co.nz/#!7Z9SCTgY!Qmm45SF8yFZ_MIXwCrD2EZY7lFsW4i_8-VrOHn6OEO0
Also noticed that the original apk is bigger than the added translation modded version. Which shouldn't have due to the added 108kb strings.XML file
Any help would be great thanks

You need to sign the application either way.
If your app has a login screen, does it access a server of some sort?

Yeah it will connect to the iunios cloud server. It does actually login me in. I know this as in status bar there's a quick click that says logged in with my name.
But can't get into the app due to fc
Can't download contacts MMS etc that's stored on the cloud

To apply it you have to go to the themes app that came with the phone. Them click on the tab that says "me" on the bottom right, then click customize and click on text and your downloaded font should be in there.

I'm in the UK. But did you click on the tab that says Me on the bottom right of the themes home screen or click on customize whatever you downloaded with the other themes manager should show up. Maybe you could reboot or close the stock themes app and reopen it so it can refresh. I didn't have to reboot though.

Oh no thats unfortunate. What about sideloading the latest apk? For some reason I can't post any files with this xda app for a while now. Says I don't have persission and I've been a member for nearly 10 years with no problems. Else I'd post it here for you. Wonder If a moderator could check that out for me?
