Any ideas how to install the AOSP ICS MMS.APK?
I'm running the LPB leak so i've got the ugly TW MMS.apk. I've tried MMS.APK from a CM9 download but it didn't work. Is there a flashable CWM file available? Currently using Handcent.
Thanks
I've been looking into this myself, as I much prefer the ICS look to the horrible iPhone-alike TW MMS app.
There's a thread that provided the stock ICS app, but the files were on multiupload, so it's not downloadable at the moment. The OP there indicated that there was a problem running the MMS app anyway.
I have tried grabbing the MMS.apk from the latest CM9 release for the SGSII, and that exhibits the described problem; the thread list appears, but the app FCs when trying to open a message thread.

There's also an ICS MMS app on the market, but it has been modified to include ads, so I'm not interested in that one.
Some guys looked at removing the ads, but the thread was shut down (for obvious reasons).

How did you try to install.As an apk. or using root explorer to pass to system/app folder?
Just wanted to bump this thread. I love the AOSP MMS app, and it FC's on me on Samsung LPH firmware. I tried pasting it to system/app, and it fc's when I try to send a message. Hopefully someone can port this apk
I believe you have to replace another apk as well.
If you want a rom that already has it, try Spike's Pure ICS special edition. It has aosp mms, calendar and contacts.

Westcrip's Resurrection Remix 9.4 is really good too. I've been using ever since 9.2 and it's been perfect so far - no FCs or bootloops or any problems at all, really. And apps are AOSP. He also has black versions of AOSP SMS and Market among others, which I love.
+1 for the AOSP mms.apk. Also tried replacing mms.apk with AOSP from different roms but it doesn't work.
I'm using Spike's Pure ICS 6.1, too bad the special edition is only in English. If Spike (or someone else) could give us a working AOSP mms.apk that would be great!
Now who wants AOSP MMS.apk for their S II?!
Download the following zip file and flash it:

Note:
1. Make sure you flash it only after you have already synced up your contacts with google (do not flash it immediately after flashing a new rom)
2. This zip will replace your SMS app, CONTACTS app, CALENDAR app and your CALCULATOR app to AOSP versions.
3. Be sure you take a nandroid backup before flashing.
4. You must be in a Samsung ICS ROM (XXLPQ only) for this zip to work.
5. I did not create this zip. The credit goes to Spike_M who made this zip that can be flashed to his ROM Pure ICS. Do try out his ROM.
ENJOY!!
Thanks RobinRichard, though unfortunately this didn't work for me on XXLPQ (root with CF-Root). Phone and messaging services die horribly after flashing that zip with CWM -- "phone has stopped" and "messaging has stopped" dialogs constantly pop up
Will have a play when I have a bit more time, but I have restored the Samsung apps for now.

I updated my post. Plz download the new zip and try it. It works well for me.
Im on lpq (litening rom 2.1) and it works perfectly for me too!
I used AOSP mms.apk from Spike's Pure ICS V7.0. It worked well. Btw, I used root explorer to copy the apk in/system/app
Hi,
How did you paste the apk into system/apps? mine says read only ?!?
And also did you just paste 1 file or did you copied a few? like the files in the framework?
Someone have dialer app? =) btw, i'll make a custom rom with dsixda kitchen, so, i put the files in /system/app, right? also for the files in framework folder? right? =)

You can use a program such as Root Explorer to remount it. If you don't have that, there are other ways to do this using adb.
Does anyone happen to have a working mms.apk thaybis the same as the one in cm9? I think the aosp one is horridly ugly as is the Sammy one, but love the one used in cm9. But because it has a long way to go yet I don't wanna run cm9 as an every day driver.
Basicaly i want to swap the apks from AOSP rom to KA15 (framework, messaging, phone, calender, system ui etc)
then i get Really good working rom with AOSP apks not SEMC apks.
Will it work? or will i get brick, or worse.......ANDROID TROLLED
I plan to do it via winrar btw but i could do on phone with root browser?

I want to port the AOKP messaging app to a stock based ROM. AOKP has MMS.apk and for stock based, we use Conversations.apk.
Can someone pls help me out?
MMS.apk has more features like the SMS popup which is in-built and also the ability to insert emojis. It is also much faster. Which is why I want this app.
Hi,
i searched forums to see if someone had already ask this question but don't find anything so here is my question :
Is it possible to change the stock clock.apk of my AOKP hydra ROM to the clock.apk wich has stopwatch, better alarm settings and everything ? I had this stock clock apk in CheckROM V6 with android 2.3.6 but since i update my phone to ICS, all stock clock apk were missing this useful fonctions !!
I try to extract apk from roms that have this kind of stock clock apk, and install it, but i don't manage to have it installed !
If it's possible, can i also change my camera.apk to a stock camera.apk that can uses volume buttons as shutter ?
Thanks for your answers !

as far as I know you cant perform that cause every rom has its own features

I've just seen that hydra rom has the option to use power button as a shutter for camera. Cool !

I am also curious if this can be done, I also prefer the Xperia UI over this. Have you found anything yet?
By the way, if you happen to use skype, does your camera work on video call? I can't make mine work on video call.
