May be you havent noticed that the Op mentions that it has the Desktop as deffault,it is exactly that function is that we want and dont care if it is Chrome or not.
Now lets see, does the Chrome you mentioned has also Fullscreen in the settings?
well its available from here
but i cant get it working on my note
pushed it into system>app and change permission to rw-r-r still no go.
need some tricks maybe.
It will simply not replace the stock browser in the system even if it does will not run properly,we need an apk.

The browser from the international galaxy s on jpu firmware has gpu acceleration to cope with the lag on the 2.2 browser. Does anyone have a .apk or .zip for this broswer?
EDIT:Wrong forum, please move to general. Got to keep the mods busy.

heres the browser apk from JPX build. No clue if it will work for you and of course you are on your own if it causes world famine or tidalwaves that engulf the Earth or just breaks your phone.

I assumed that would rely on some of the new graphics API features introduced in Gingerbread, but I could be wrong.

I tried, first backing up the old Browser, but after I copied and tried to run Browser, it said "package not found"
Running Eugene Ginger Clone R2.

Tested Does not work, it is probably missing some API calls as mentioned above. Upon launching the browser, it returns a force close.
Current Version:3.1.3
Requires Android:1.5 and up
size:3.2MB
V3.1.3 update:
New Android Market / Adds +1 For Apps And Games, Pin Number For Purchases, And More…
(for all devices – does not require root, but you do need to enable ‘Unknown Sources‘ in Settings-> Applications.)
There’s a brand-new settings menu, as well as click-to-read explanations of app permissions (not developer customizable, unfortunately). There’s also a brand-new Market icon to spruce things up.
Oh, and did we mention you can now use a custom PIN for purchases on your phone, instead of leaving your Google Checkout wide open for anyone that picks up your device? If you have kids, or your phone is stolen, this is one awesome feature to have – and really, it makes a lot of sense.
THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP MIKE.

No! I Thought You Meant On The Computer. The Only Way In The Market Is To Put The Exact Name And The Drop Menu Will Have It. Just Install It Like Any Other Apk File.

Hahaha..I know it seems like im doing all this from a computer but hell this phone is almost a computer. Can't imagine what bionic will be like lol.
And what do u mean by put the exact name? For google chrome? Sry I am confused by your wording just a little bit.
Should I remove the old.market apk from system/app first then? Or should it stay there.
Just don't wanna do anything that will have to make me sbf since I wont be able to do that until after 7pm tomorrow
I cannot wait until my computer is able to be turned on at my house I wont have to worry about that crap anymore.
This is just an app. You can install normally or push it into the system folder to protect it. Its your choice.

Install Normally Right Over The Old Market. As For The Exact Name, When You're In The Market And Let's Say You Want Google Maps. Type In Google Maps Hit Enter. Exit Out Of It Go Back In When You Touch The Search Area It's Gonna Pop Up Right Away As Your Last Search Or You Hit The Letter G And It Will Have Google Maps First.
Does anyone know of a tutorial on how to build custom roms. Im not really trying to do anything fancy like eclipse or some of the other experts but i would like to take the "naked" version and add a few things in that i like from other roms.
Im just trying to make a buisness like rom that has blur corprate email, calendar, desk clock, camera, camcorder, gallery and really thats about all. I can get the rest of the stuff from the market.
Sorry if this has been asked over and over again.
I think most likely u could just use root explorer and sift through the rom zips for the apks and lib files needed for the features/apps you want and push them to the necessary spots. I'm sure there is also more complicated and in depth things you could do but for the most part this should work. Just might take a lot of experiments to figure out what is needed for anything that is interdependent on other features/apps to work.
Thanks
I will play around with the root explorer and see what i can tear up.
Best rom making software
Is root explorer the better option or can the premium version of the rom manager be used also. I hate to buy an app if its not the best one.
I think that feature in rom manager will work.
I have never used that app tho as the x2 isn't "officially " supported on that app.
Root explorer is the best (2-4$)(can't remember how.much exactly cost)
I have spent for an app. (Wave launcher is close 2nd)
It makes editing system and other files simple and easy. Also a majority of people use that app which makes it easier when explaining how to change things and etc.. when everyone uses the same app lol.
It even makes mounting system from r/o to r/w and back again as simple as touching a single.button once at top of the screen. Just an all around simple smooth easy to use and explain app /end rave lol
would you happen to know of any reason why i cant install the blur email and calendar? I have the apk's but i just errors out when i try to run them.
I think u will need to push them into system /app and fix permissions and maybe owners..permission needs to.be like all other system app. Rw-r--r--
Then they should show up after reboot. If they don't work u might need to add in email authentication apk or something ...

What this guy said is what you need to do.
This is actually something my boss and I have discussed. Taking some open source apps and changing them so they are specific for our company and also trying out a basic rom. Once the reality of the fact that only a handful of the people have the same type of Android phone put a quick halt on the rom idea. Would be a fun project though.
Hey all.
Some of us using custom roms have been looking for and asking about the HC google calendar, as it has a better appeal to some of us. I extracted the .apk from a xoom rom and all works great. So i figured I'd post it here for anyone else who wanted it.
All you need to do is place the .apk in system/app/ folder. (I used root explorer to paste it there.) Dont click install since it wont work, just reboot and it will show up in your app drawer. I renamed the old calendar to calendar.bak so its still there if i ever want it back. Hope you all enjoy.

I renamed it Calendar.apk
worked fine for me on task 5.2
Saw the app after reboot, opens and edit calendar entries. Although the Cal widget FCs.
Did change the name to only Calendar.apk, but did not even touch the permissions.
Thanks for sharing - hope we can get the widget to work.
works for me. i didnt rename it. i thought i needed too but apparently it works fine just as it is. but i did change the permission to rw- r-- r to match the original permission.
personally i prefer the monthly view from the TW version. but the weekly and daily view from the HC version.
works great for me... thanks
does anyone know the way to let my tasks show up on the calendar. it just show up the events

I didnt rename it or change permissions. All i did was in Root Explorer i made sure i was in r/w mode.
Not sure about tasks dont have the tab near me so can check. I use a task program called Tasks N Todos it syncs with google and works like a charm. I can even do recurring tasks and create folders.
The widget from the TW calendar stays but doesnt work. I wish i knew how to remove it, bugs me having in my list. There are widget apps for calendars, but i dont must have a widget anyways.
I considered a screen shot but realized i have too many private stuff in my calendar. If someone would care to make on and ill add it to the OP.
Glad its working for everyone didnt think it would be this much in demand.
Hey medic97 - which rom did you rip this file from? I think calendarprovider.apk needs to be replaced as well to fix the fc's.
This seems to be lacking the List (agenda) view my prior Calender.apk had that I found very handy. I have been running Task ROMs.
Edit: Calender.apk with List view option shows About: 3.2-UEKMM. I restored back to it and will keep it as I like that 'List' list.
I put chrome in system/app in my rom and I got problem to start chrome.
it says missing critical functionality.
I get FC with go keyboard when putting it in system/app.
Everything goes find after I put them in data/app.
what is the problem? anyone could help me to explain it? Thanks.
A little more info would be nice, what phone are you using and what version of Android. Also be aware that Google frowns upon distributing any Gapps in ROMs or any Google apps not included in AOSP such as Chrome. They went after the CM team for this and thats why Gapps are now separate from ROMs.

I believe there are lib files (& possibly other assets) that are needed to push Chrome as a system app.
No. I put the google chrome in the system/app then it doesn't work.
But if I put in the data/app as user application, it works fine.
I am using htc sensation revolution HD ROM. I push the chrome to the system/app.
Probably as spunker88 pointed out, google added some check to see
whether chrome becomes a system/app or not. If it is, it give warning
and quit.
If this is the case, what could be the reason of go keyboard FC?
