Google contact sync still not working on JellyVanillaX 5.1. To fix it just copy the attached file to system/app and set permission to r-w-r-r (tested on my mini) :good:

Hi,
i am searching a Calendar APP that do not need a google account
that runs on CM11. I use the cm-11-20140418-UNOFFICIAL-p760.zip from artas182x http://artas182x.tk/?page_id=287
to replace the: Calendar.apk
And a note APP also local (without a google account)
I wanna use the phone without google account
Thanks
here is my solution:
Download the: cm-11-20140418-UNOFFICIAL-p760.zip copy it to: cm-11-20140418_mod-UNOFFICIAL-p760.zip
open cm-11-20140418_mod-UNOFFICIAL-p760.zip with a archiv manager add the 3 following APKs to /system/app
Calendar Manager.apk
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871053
Memorix Notes + Checklists.apk
http://www.appsapk.com/memorix-notes-checklists/
Super Backup SMS & Contacts.apk
http://www.appsapk.com/super-backup-sms-contacts/
Flash it with CWM and after install the: Fix190414.zip
Boot the Android, open the Calendar Manager APP
an set a new (local) calendar.
Backup of the notes is not possible with SuperBackup
but the APP: Memorix Notes + Checklists has a own backup integrated
Hey people,
I realized the Google Chrome browser demands lots of battery, so I wanted to change to another browser. There is nothing better than the AOSP one. But while installing it there seems to be a lil´ problem:
There is an app called com.android.browser.provider which comes preinstalled with stock ROM, probably to make Google Chrome work. So this app, has a ContentProvider declared with a specific authority name. The AOSP Browser app has another ContentProvider which its authority name IS THE SAME as the "com.android.browser.provider"´s one. This makes the Android package manager complain at AOSP Browser app install time.
So in order to be able to get AOSP Browser installed and running some steps must be previously executed. There are two ways:
A.-THE MANUAL WAY
1.- Settings -> Apps -> com.android.browser.provider -> Clear data
2.- File Manager -> Delete /system/app/com.android.browser.provider" folder
3.- File Manager -> Delete /data/data/com.android.browser.provider" folder
4.- Reboot
5.- Install attached Browser.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
B.-THE COMMANDO WAY
1.-Terminal Emulator -> Execute the following commands:
su
rm /system/app/com.android.browser.provider (Removes apk folder from /system/app/ location)
pm clear com.yourapp.packagename (Removes application data)2.- Reboot
3.- Install attached Browser.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then, AOSP Browser should be running :highfive::highfive::highfive:
Please comment if there are any problems :good:
If anyone gets an up-to-date APK post here and I will update the OP.
EXTRA: SYNC BOOKMARKS WITH YOUR GOOGLE ACCOUNT:
The following steps show how to make AOSP BROWSER have the bookmarks saved in your Google account:
1.- Install attached BookmarksSyncAdapter.apk
2.- Settings -> Accounts -> Google -> /** Wanted Google Account */ -> Switch on Sync Browser
3.- A notification (exclamation sign) should be shown. Click it. (In order to authorize the app to sync bookmarks with your account)
4.- Settings -> Apps -> Browser -> Force Close
5.- Done
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For up-to-date-is-a-must obsessed people:
-Browser.apk targetSdkVersion is 22. So its the last one (Official Stable Android 6.0 has not been released yet)
-BookmarksSyncAdapter.apk targets 16 SDK version. It seems to be discontinued as is not preinstalled in latest AOSP Roms

Really dont know. First, I should check the logcat to find the cause so, could you post thee logcat?
Also, you can try installing it as a system app:
1.-Create /system/app/BookmarksSyncAdapter/ folder
2.-Copy BookmarksSyncAdapter.apk into the previously created folder
3.-Set permissions -rw-r--r-- to the apk
4.-Reboot
5.-Goto Settings -> Accounts -> Google -> Your Google account and check if "Browser" item is listed

there was already a fully working solution in the forum.. just search "material design aosp browser". just need to delete BrowserProviderProxy if present in system/app first
isn't it dangerous to delete the existing file which may be more up to date with security?
is it not possible to simply rename internally the Browser.apk so it does not conflict?

Instructions:
after flashing give the permission in the apps , otherwise you will get fc
This is for those who does not really want all the fancy features that are present in Stock Touchwiz ROM and prefer to only have what is on Stock Android or Pixel-like experience.
All credits goes to the creator of each mod involved.
Requirements:
- Custom recovery like TWRP
- Rooted Phone (SuperSU / Magisk)
- File Manager with Root Access. I use Root Explorer
- OpenGApps (arm64,7.0) (package: stock/super/aroma) - This will enable some Nexus/Pixel exclusive features and install Google Apps that are preloaded on Nexus/Pixel Devices including apps that usually can't be installed as normal apk such as below:
- Google Phone
- Google Contacts
- Google Camera (Slow Motion isn't working)
- Google Now Card (swipe to right)
- Google Search Pill
- "OK Google" voice detection
Instructions:
* First thing to do is to flash OpenGApps via TWRP
Link: http://opengapps.org
* Install a navbar overlay from below thread to get Stock Android (AOSP) NavBar or Pixel NavBar. Install it as normal apk.
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/themes/substratum-inversion-ui-overlay-overlays-t3604341
* Replace the stock Pixel Launcher (located at '/root/system/priv-app/NexusLauncherPrebuilt/NexusLauncherPrebuilt.apk') with this modded Launcher (link below). This launcher is basically the same as the stock Pixel Launcher with enabled features like round icons for app that supports it. More information on the original thread.
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/launcher3-pixel-launcher-features-t3620972
* Below are some apps i'm using that are supported:
- Google Photos
- Google Play Music
- Google Drive
- Google Calendar
- Google Calculator
- Google Keep
- Google News&Weather
- Google Playstore
- Google Drive
- Google Calendar
- Youtube
- Gmail
- XDA Labs
- XDA Feed
- Twitter
And now that you got all that is required to have a Pixel-like UI / Experience, it's time to make your ROM lightweight.
* Create a folder in your Internal Storage or SD Card named "system" and inside it, create folders "app" and "priv-app". This is to make sure that you can always revert back the changes that you'll make.
* Open your File Manager with root access and navigate to "root/system/app" or "root/system/priv-app"
This is where you can find all the installed apps in your system. In my case, what i do is "cut and paste" the whole folder to Internal Storage and then reboot to remove the bloat that i don't need.
I am currently on Renovate Ice ROM - r98 build (AQF7 FIRMWARE) and below is the list of what i have removed.

I am not getting any Force Closes / Crashes / Errors. Just make sure to reboot your device after cutting and pasting system apps to your Internal Storage.
When you realized that you needed something back, just copy and paste the whole folder to where you got them and set the correct permission.
For the folder, set the permission to "rwxr-xr-x".
For the apk inside, set the permission to "rw-r-r".
then reboot your device.
If you want to have an updated google apps as soon as it becomes available, you may download latest apks at apkmirror website then replace existing apk in the system, set the correct permission, and reboot. I've done it to almost all google apps without any issue.
I will try to update this thread to include all apps that can be removed based on stock firmware that's freshly installed.
