Gmail with froyo not the newest version?

Before the froyo update I had the option to "preview" or "download" for media files, but now it only shows "preview". Tried opening and hitting menu to see if its just buried now.
My question is....if I can find the .apk for the newest version of gmail (from before froyo) and install it on froyo, are there any issues that could possibly arise?

Yes you can. Go into a message, hit menu button, select "more" or whatever its called, and there's an option to select text.
I prefer the way dolphin HD browser does it...

Downloaded and installed, didn't fix the issue outlined in my original post.
Any other ideas? How do I save files (not pictures) that are emailed?

Don't think you can (unfortunately). I tried to download a .txt and .zip file and wasn't able to d/l either. I tried everything I could.
The most I could do was preview the .txt.
Not sure why they wouldn't allow this (perhaps security?), but they should definitely allow the option to d/l stuff.

Cheers for the download. The market I'm running looks identical as far as I can tell.. do you know if there's anyway to check the version of what market you have?

Yes indeed you can download atrackdog from the market and it should say version number you have and wether there is an update or not
Sent from Inc via premuim app

Menu/apps/all or running/market.... it will say what version you have at the top... I don't think all of the roms are setup to work with any market

Yeah my thoughts but like I said if you know what you are doing or at least make a back up of the old market apk just in case it forcloses or even a nadroid, it won't hurt lol

Sorry but not seeing backup old market or nand in your instructions...
Usually if it doesn't work you can just uninstall update in menu

Just checked my version, looks like I've been running this version for 3-4+ months now

Usually when someone says " like I said" that means they already stated it. Sorry I thought you'd of understood what I was saying. Carry on

yeah looks like this is old news lol. CM7 has had 2.3.6 for a while now.
For those wanting to check your Market version, no need to download an app to do it. Just go Settings > Applications > All Apps > Market.

thx

I am running Cyanogen 6.1.0. It has the old market. I downloaded the apk you provided, then used APK Manager to install it. It reported the application was not installed and sure enough I still have the old Market.
Any ideas how I can upgrade?

Umm weird, it should overwrite the old market
Try deleting old market using root explorer the ln reinstall new market
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App

I did try delete the old Market using Titanium Backup, and it did delete it. Then I installed the new Market using several installers, but the installers all say "Application not installed".

Did you try to move the apk to system/app ? Then reboot?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App

I did and it just would not show up in my apps. Eventually I came across a file someone put up which I flashed and it did install the new market. So, I am OK now.

alrighty good for you

Google Talk Video Chat on 3G or 4G Mod

this mod was posted by Shep all credit to him for helping out!
for those that don't like ADB here's a easier way i had to buy SQlight edit from the market for 3$ but it was worth it because it worked!
Without adb:
1. Download SQLight editor from the market
2. If you don't have a good file manager also get Root Explorer from the market.
3. After both are installed - use Root Explorer to browse to /data/data/com.google.android.gsf/databases/gservices.db and click on it
4. Now click on "main"
5. Scroll down to gtalk_vc_wifi_only - highlight and hold
6. Press "Edit Record" and change the "value" to false instead of true
I hope this helps:

You have to make sure to install the latest Google apps 05/03/2011 and on the screen name list if your friend has a camera on his or her computer you'll find a camera icon next to their name if you click it on it then it will video call that person

will this work with out 2.3.3 roms?

Me and my girl have this..were both available and only have a video icon by our own name not each other.any ideas? Can't get to video no matter what I've tryed!

Works with CM7 Nightly 2.3.4 nightly 60 and up just install the latest Google apps I posted in the apps and theme forum. Listen carefully it does not work as good on 2.3.3 so use a 2.3.4 Rom.

Thanks for providing the information. It works.

No options when selecting gtalk vc wifi only
Once I scroll down to gtalk_vc_wifi_only and highlight and hold Nothing happens
I have no options from there.... If I hit settings again no options what am I doing wrong.. Ive triedd this in Root Explorer, Sqlite, and also ES explorer....

scroll to the far right instead and change the value of true to false.

This is awsome. i got a att atrix runnin on cherryblur 1.4d and i did this and the gtalk 100% worked on 3g AWESOME! i tested out the gtalk before and it would only on wifi but this worked so thank u!

App available for this
I wrote a free, open source app to do this.
It is on the market: http://market.android.com/developer?pub=Innodroid
The source code is here: http://code.innodroid.com/gtalkenabler
Give it a try and let me know how it goes. The app requires root, of course...

Guys, you don't need Root explorer (it's not free). SQLite has a feature for search database, not very fast but it works.
Anyway the trick works for a while, but somehow the gtalk_vc_wifi_only is changed back to true! Maybe after a reboot, not sure.
Any idea?

Black Facebook Apk

this is the inverted facebook apk thats been floating around for awhile now i currently use it and think its great
I did not make this or have anything to do with it i am simply putting it out there for people to get and try out
You must have Root and use a program like system app remover or some other program that allows you to delete pre installed apps or system apps open it up and delete the stock facebook apk then simply place the black facebook apk on your sd card navigate to it using my files or any file manager program and install the apk just like you would if it was from the market

S Voice from the SIII working on the Infuse

Working great on my AOKP rom.
Pre-reqs: Google Play Store account, Android phone with a mic, apps from unknown sources checked. Also, you will likely need an ICS rom. YMMV if you are on a different Android OS.
1) Download the .rar file from the link.
2) Download ES File Explorer from the Play Store.
3) Open ES File Explorer.
4) Using ES File Explorer, navigate to wherever you downloaded the .rar.
5) Click on the downloaded .rar file.
6) Will open in ES File Explorers in-app ES Zip Explorer.
7) Click on the .apk file.
8) When it asks if you want to install, select install.
9) Voila, there will be the icon in the app drawer, or you can long hold the search button.
Article on the S Voice on the Galaxy Nexus: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/05/20/full-hands-on-with-samsungs-s-voice-for-the-galaxy-s-iii/
For those having trouble with the voiceback, here's something from the article:
Every left-pointing speech bubble you see in the pictures (except for "Say 'Hi Galaxy'" and the initial "What would you like to do") are read aloud with a Text To Speech engine. There's no TTS built in, it uses whatever you have on your phone, which in my case is the dreary default Google TTS. Maybe the GSIII comes with something nicer.

I havent personally looked at it but I'm assuming its an apk in a rar file. Download the rar on computer, open it, plug in your phone, open your system/app folder, put it in there, disconnect your phone, use a root explorer to go to that same app folder, click the apk and install it

For those having trouble, its in a rar file. Use es file explorer and you can open the rar and install the apk directly from inside the app. You don't need to use the computer to extract it.

That weird for you guys.... i did the one the op provided and i am on nun's aokp and i hear voices fine. If i open certain apps and such it force closes, but for me mostly it runs great.

Works pretty well on my Infuse running CM9. I don't hear it talk as others have reported but it's cool. Not sure how useful it will be but I like the direction we're heading.
2992

Sometimes it'll talk and sometimes it won't. I think it needs more files from the S3. I know it works for sure if you ask for the weather. That's when it'll sound like a depressed Siri. Might be because I live in a rainy city, so the weather is always depressing.
I have only tried using it to open a few apps but it looks like we need the specific S3 app for it to work properly. Taking a picture does not work, opening the camera does not work. But you can get it to check facebook, open facebook, and open the calculator.

Here is a modded version of S Voice.
