Got this thing almost sorted need some help - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so I got the lenovo s880i googlefied. All is syncing and I have cleaned all the crap from lenovo on it. Now, I have some more questions : How can I find the system APK for system languages? I wang to add some european languages. It is android 4.0.4 ICS. I installed GO desktop too, wich is a way better launcher/desktop than the crap lebovo default. How can I make it the default system launcher ? Will it work if I just place the apk in to system/app and erase the original desktop? Or should I link it to the system somehow? Then finally I would like to replace the stock phone dial module for the original ICS one. Is that possible or it's a compiled part instead of an apk?
Many thanks!!

why uninstall the market fully?
if market starts to malfunction just go to settings--->applications to delete the market updates (that'll bring you to the oldest version of market installed in your rom)
It doesn't even show the uninstall option and its a custom market i think its named BlackMarketApp.

[REQUEST] Stock Motoblur Contacts.apk

Hello guys,
I've just bought a Razr XT910 and I'm really in love with this cellphone, but my carrier (Claro - Brasil) have customized icons that are really annoying me, especially the Contacts.apk (see 1st screenshot). All I want is the stock Motoblur Contacts.apk (see 2nd screenshot). I've already flashed de Retail ICS Rom and the icons remain there. But the Messages, Camera and Gallery (that I've installed from the Razr M thread) are with the stock Motoblur icons. Can someone please upload the stock app or tell me how can I fix this?
Thank you guys!
here you go I copied my system contact stock apk I hope it works for you

Thanks man, but it seems to be more complicated than I thought. When I try to install over the other apk, the system tells me that is already an app with the same signature and etc., and when I uninstall the old apk, the Phone.apk disappears and I can't install the new Contacts..
Any help?
damn sux...have you tried installing with root explorer? and setting the permissions?

Change the original. Bak (example contacts.apk.bak) change permission rw-r-r- and install. Reboot.

Another option
I don't know if you are dead set on getting the stock favorite contacts apk but if you are not, there is one that I have been using for a while. I highly recommend it and it was just recently updated. I can't post the link to it as I don't have 10 posts but PM me and I will be happy to send you the link.

[Q] Porting apps from ICS to JB?

The title pretty much explains my question. I would like to port apps from the Sony-ified stock ICS to Cm10. Any ideas?
Try placing the ICS apps in the /system/apps folder and then install it and reboot!

No sorry, when I reboot they don't appear anywhere. I wouldn't open a thread if it was that simple. Oh and btw, a flaw with your advice, I'd have to also set the permissions to rw--r--.
Firstly you have to be sure that the Sony apps don't utilise any proprietary Sony framework to run. Usually manufacturer apps only run on stock ROMs with proprietary framework like Samsung Touchwiz and HTC Sense. If you're sure they don't, then after copying them to /system/app and setting the right permissions, reboot into recovery and wipe cache+dalvik. Then reboot and see if they show up.

Problem with stock SMS app after updating to jelly bean in the razr HD

Hi, guys !
Yesterday I updated my razr Hd to jelly bean by OTA. Everything gone fine, but this morning, when I tried to use SMS, I saw that the stock app were gone!
I tried to reinstall it by the native apk (my phone is rooted) but it doesn't install saying that it was not possible.
Then I installed the Go SMS Pro app to see what would hapen: it worked like a charm! All my old SMS were there and was fully operating.
I tried once more to install the stock apk, but had the same error...
Anyone knows what may be happening? What can I do?
This go SMS pro is very heavy, I don't like and want my stock app back!

Have you made a backup before flashing?

Try flashing Cm10.1 MMS apk
Try flashing the Cm10.1 MMS Apk. Just search it in the forums. Download the zip. Reboot into recovery. And install zip from sd. Its very similar to the stock messaging but with a couple extra features. If that doesn't work and you really, really need to have your stock MMS back, do a titanium backup of all apps and data then factory reset. Or just flash a custom ROM.
