hey,
i am on 4.1.2 & rooted. unfortunately i deleted the stock sms app (messaging.apk ? ) and also the .odex file. other messaging apps don't work. now i can't receive or send any messages. i also tried to re-install the 4.1.2 rom but it didn't help, the sms app is still not there.
can anyone upload the apk (and the odex?) from 4.1.2. so that i could copy it to /system/app by using root explorer?
or is it possible to flash the 4.0 sbf now ?
help !

Why can't you just extract it from the ROM .zip??

How did you uninstall it?
Sent from my GT-S5570L using xda premium
Using rom toolbox. Accidetally hit uninstall instead of advanced freeze
maybe you just disabled it. go to settings > applications > all > video player > enable

Use root explorer to move the apk to system/app folder and that'll do the trick.

Hmm still a no go. I have a sprint gs3. I wonder if thats the issue?
You meed root to move it to system/app folder, is it rooted?
If its rooted then in root explorer mount as r/w using the button at the top and then paste it in to the system/app folder.
If it successfully pastes in there you should be fine.
You don't need to install and anyway it won't let you, it'll keep saying not installed but since it is in system/app folder that doesn't matter.
Just reboot after you move it to the folder.

The issue is that you also need the .odex file, i had the same thing with sms (secmms. apk + odex)
I made a zip with the maps system\app\ and the 2 files. You can install it using recovery mode.

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?
Sent from my XT912
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.
I'm wanting to try the new jellybean keyboard from the Note 2 on my S3 and would appreciate if someone would upload the apk for me. After trying the demo out and seeing the number keys locked @ the top, I wanted to try it on my phone but didn't want to download the entire ROM, just to try it. If someone would upload it, I would appreciate it.

Thanks, I have the tar downloaded but don't know how to extract it either. Root explorer wont do it. I believe its just the samsungIME.apk, but I'm unsure if there's another that goes with it or not. If you can pull that from your phone, I would appreciate it. Thanks for the help.

here is the apk but not sure if any other files are needed ether. let me know if it works.

Thanks for the help. I downloaded it but it will not install, there may be a lib file that goes with it, to allow it to install or just be incompatible. I'll have to do some research. Thank you for the help.

I figured that out, after opening the apk. I did download the deodexed version from one of the ROM developers and it installs, but force closes instantly. The files are different, in a few aspects but I'm working on some lib files now. Hopefully that will work...........

I would love to try this keyboard on my tmobile note 2. i can type easier on the stock keyboard but can swipe better with swiftkey flow.
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!

if your phone is rooted, try placing the native apk in system/app

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.
I am having an issue with the e-mail application in JB (v4.1.2) and would like to try the ICS (v4.0.4) one to see if the problem exists there, too. I can't figure out how to get the .apk out of the ROM download. If someone that's running ICS would be willing to PM me a download link for "lgemail.apk", that would very much appreciated.
If you have the ice kdz, you can extract it yourself.

Wow, thanks. I never saw that thread. I was able to extract the lgemail.apk no problem. Now, I guess because it's a system app, I can't install it and overwrite the existing one. It starts to install and then just says that it was not installed. This is my wife's phone and it's not rooted. I'm gathering that there is no way to do it without rooting...?
Yeah sorry my friend, but you need root. Sometimes a simple swap with root will work (for replacing the app) but sometimes it won't (need to fix it first)
