Thanks Keith. I'll give it a try when I get back.
No problem.....I also have a 'dark' version of the stock sms apk (got it somewhere here on xda) if you want to try it instead.......

I don't know how to explain it, but I want the MMS apk like the one shown here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/deviceForum/screenshots/1055/20130327T094824.jpg
Is the one you gave me the same one, but appears different on my phone because I'm running CM?
Ah....I don't think the stock mms apk will work on CM as the apk needs the touchwiz framework in order to function.....
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
not sure what touchwiz is, but I'm guessing there is no workaround or way to get the stock mms apk to install on CM roms?
Thanks for your help Keith. Appreciate it!
Touchwiz is the Samsung launcher. It is what gives Samsung phones their look and feel....the user framework of the device. Porting parts of that framework to non Samsung ROMs simply will not work.......
As an alternative, you could look for apps in the themes and apps section for an app which has been made to look like 'stock' but which functions on a non stock ROM......
Or....
You could go for a whole new ROM..... one of the 'hybrid' ones.....a stock based ROM but without the bloat and with aosp/aokp functionality. I've used two and am still using one of them....chamelion and aliance.....I'm not going to recommend either as that's against XDA rules, but both of them will let you download themes and tweaks that let you customize the look of the base ROM so that it can resemble (or not) the full stock package........

Ive been trying this for a while and i was wondering if somebody may be able to help i wanted to port the touch wiz mms.apk and phone.apk to ICS just for the fact that i like the layout and look of them. i tried to push them with root explorer and no luck and also just doing a straight up install and still a no go any help would be appreciated.
If I'm not mistaken, I believe you have to have touchwiz framework for them to work.
Most of the samsung specific apk only work with the touchwiz framework so your kinda out of luck for now util the sgs2's update gets ported in the future

Vibranturk has added some tw in his last release of docs. Might be able to push them on it.

Here is a modified stock AT&T Contacts.apk file without the permanent Yellow Pages contact at the top. The is for rooted users only.
Replace the Contacts.apk in /system/app using Root Explorer. Change it's permissions to RW-R--R--. Reboot!
WARNING: Do not use this for any custom ROMs, only for use on a stock AT&T ROM! Also, remember to make backups...
Funny, I never even noticed the YP thingy on the top of my contacts till now. How lame. When I clicked on it, I got a force close. I must have already frozen whatever that button links to...
Thanks, maybe that apk can be swapped out for the stock one in our custom rom(s)...

Awesome work!! This is verified working.
Niceeeee. Like to see dev work like this. Great work. This should maybe be in the themes and apps section though. Not a criticism.
How obnoxious of them to stick that YP in the contacts ?
Thanks, I tried posting in dev but it said not enough posts . I remove the yp app and mine force closed also when clicking the contact. It's crazy how much bloat ware came on this thing. I'd like to see a stock Samsung contacts.apk to see what else they hacked up
So just did this and now Contacts is missing from my app drawer and it wont launch from my launcher tray......... and I cant make calls the phone shortcut is gone.....
You need to restart the phone...

I've rebooted multiple times. I tried again same deal not sure what the issue is. I'm on TPC's v2 ROM not sure if that would cause any issue.
Same here and i didn't back up the stock app lol. Does anyone have the unmodded apk?

I have it, PM me you email addy I'll mail it over to you. I would upload it but I'm at work right now.
I haven't tested this on any of the custom ROMs, only the stock AT&T ROM. I'm not sure what they did with their Contacts.apk file. If you upload the one from your ROM, I can see if I can make the same mods that I did to the AT&T one.
Didn't work for me either, and also copied it over stock apk and don't have a backup. Using TPC V2 ROM. Any one have stock Contacts.apk for that rom?

Using Go Contacts EX from the market for now. It's a little much, but works for good as a replacement for stock.
Looked over in the dev section- will probably be flashing a new ROM soon anyway

Awesome, worked perfectly. Thanks.
Ok heres my issue I cannot seem to find a direct answer. I am running ICS Tmobile ROM (jedi 4)and everything seems to be kewl but for some reason I cannot get s pen to work. I was sent a copy of s memo but s pen has been nothing but a failure. I have tried flashing it, loading over the apk's and all sort of stuff and I cannot figure it out. The program would not load at all, any ideas?
Sent from my SGH-T879 using xda app-developers app
S Memo will not run on that ROM. It is not an ICS Touchwiz based ROM. Try third party apps.
I am sorry I provided the incorrect information. Jedi 4 is a touchwiz based ROM and the application that is in question is not smemo but snote s memo works correctly. The reason why I had chosen that specifically that ROM was for, please don't flame me, touchwiz yeah sure is kinda laggy and bloated but I like it. And in the end that is all that matters correct?

Did you install the driver files associated with S Note?
Clear app cache and app data?
Thank you for the response and yeah I did clear the cache and everything else with all the associated files but it doesn't seem to work .

if you tried to install it twice it would just replace the app with the newest apk or not let you if you done it through the Google play store. also what's app is locked to one phone number

you need to take original apk and mod name or something like that to make it appear as different app, the install...should be simple u just gotta get to know apks

you probably just need to mod the manifest and change the package name
I've been trying to push some AOSP style apps to system/app but I keep getting force closes on them.
Examples include calculator.apk and mms.ask. Any idea why these apps won't work?

The S4 is a TouchWiz phone, not AOSP. The AOSP framework isn't there, so many AOSP apps won't work. That's probably true for most of them, actually.
What you're doing is kind of close to taking an iPad application and trying to flash it, then asking why it doesn't work.

Also, Samsung apps are in system/priv-app, not system/app. Some may work, some may not. Generally fixing permissions and ensuring file name matches should help.
I tried that too. Oh well. Guess I'll just settle with freezing stock apps and installing AOSP versions the regular way. Thanks for the help.

good luck...but like it was said, tw doesn't have ASOP framework as part of it
I've found a few apks that have been repackaged that I can simply install. Just trying to create the illusion of AOSP.
