I would assume you would use something like root explorer to remove the touchwiz calendar apk from the system apps folder and install the APK for the stock calendar. Unfortunately, I'm kind of a n00b at this type of stuff so I wouldn't know where to find either calendar apk, nor whether it would have any additional consequences. Hope you find an answer better than mine.

Does anyone have or know where to get a set of the above for Cupcake that will actually install and run on the Hero?
I found a 1.1 Calendar.apk that will install as long as HTC's abomination is installed along side it, but they fight with each other for control of the calendar. And I haven't been able to find *any* CalendarProvider apk's that will install.
HTC's calendar app is a look-and-feel disaster, the stock application is much better.
Thanks.

I have. That's where I got the 1.1 apk that sort of works.
I'm perfectly willing to take apart some ROM image if I need to, it's not like that's hard.
is it possible to push STOCK Contact and Gallery APPS to the desire ROM? i have the KingXKxNexus Desire ROM but i would like the stock contacts app as well as the gallery as they run much quicker and are really smooth
so would it be possible for me to replace them with the stock ones?
also, can someone create a launcher for desire roms that would replace the "add widget" button by either contacts or web browser?
lastly, i've searched all over this forum, but i havent found any transparent notification bars for desire roms, are there any? or can some be made?
i know that you can push the 3dgallery apk , just find it here on the forums... also i know that with modaco's you can bake your desire rom with the default contacts... i was using alpha 10 with the default messaging and contacts and it was sweet.
how do you do that?
What's the advanced command to do so?
Also, where can i find the gallery messaging and contact apk?
Will I also be able to uninstall the HTC apparently like contacts etc? Customer I don't want to have 2 contacts app
does anyone know how i can push stock android apps like contacts and messaging to Desire ROMS so they'll get replaced?

you can just adb push and push the .apk files no need to replace they can coexist.
i know its possible for them to coexist, but i'd prefer to only have 1. (the stock)
do you think it would be possible?

Goal: Change the color of "my calendar" from pink to Blue.
I've tried putting an android stock Calendar.apk and deleted the others, but I couldn't get it to work. Is there another way to do this?
Thanks

Is there another Calendar APK that will change this? Or can I somehow remove the Pink color in the file-system? or remove the "my calendar" all-together, and keep the google one?
Just want to change the pink!

Have you looked at your google calender settings online... I am sure you can edit your colors there.

Change Calendar to new APK
I tried to change this myself, finally gave up, however I did find a good calendar app that I really like in it's place Gemini, very nice indeed.
What agenda widget are you using there, OP? And what widget theme if one of the popular agenda widgets?
I would really like a calanxder icon/widget with the actual date... tcalander doesn't update daily.... id almost settle for a no date calander short cut icon....ideas thanks

Unfortunately it seems the "My Calendar" is part of the Samsung calendar app that can't be removed. The best you can do is hide it, but any events you create will still be assigned to the pink My Calendar by default. So whenever you create an event, you have to choose the calendar you want.
The obvious workaround would be to replace the TouchWiz calendar with the stock Android calendar, but I just tried that a little while ago and it didn't work. There may be a way to get it working in the future. Until then I'm just ignoring the My Calendar thing.
I was able to replace the TouchWiz calendar with the normal Android calendar roughly according to the directions in this thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735035
(Sorry for the crappy link, but I can't do proper links yet.)
I've edited mcb00f's directions slightly and repeated and repeated them here:
1.) You must have root to replace the TouchWiz calendar! Use root explorer or ADB to move TouchWizCalendar.apk, TouchWizCalendar.odex, TouchWizCalendarProvider.apk and TouchWizCalendarProvider.odex to somewhere on your SD Card as backups. Reboot.
2.) Go into manage applications. Filter to all. Uninstall com.android.calendar.apk and com.android.provider.calendar.apk. Reboot again.
3.) Download Calendar.apk and CalendarProvider.apk from the thread referenced above and copy them to your SD card. Install both.
4.) If you want, use root explorer to move them from /data/app to /system/app but it's really not necessary. Reboot again, should sync by default but re-enable if you need to.
If you get an error or it doesn't work, it's probably because you didn't reboot one of the three times you need to do so!

Hope that helps!
Edit: Just in case it wasn't clear, the My Calendar calendar and events in it will be deleted along with the TouchWiz calendar app, so if you have anything you want to keep from that calendar, you should back it up accordingly!
Hey, after searching XDA and google I have been unable to find a way to install the plain, old, stock Gmail Widget on a custom rom. The one that lets you pick a folder and display it in a customizable size window.
To avoid certain comments, I am *NOT* looking for a 3rd party widget which can do what I am asking. I *WANT* the plain, old, stock gmail widget that doesn't require me to install a hacked version of the gmail app to work.
Any help will get a *THANKS* click and my appreciation. I'm either looking for an APK, or a method to extract the widget from another source.
Hmmm... actually, is the stock gmail widget only available in *real* ICS builds? I'm looking at my GFs phone, but somehow I remember it being on the stock ATT rom as well. Lmk.

You can try but I couldn't get them to work although I didn't look into it that much, you'll have to decompile some of them as the smali code inside seems to expect a different DPI to what we have so you may need to alter the res folders. As far as libs I have never seen any documentation so you'll have to guess. Also note AOlink is the miracast software. AFAIK the TF700 doesn't support it hardware wise but good luck
I have not been able to get browser or email working. Task Manager and Supernote show up in system/app but does not show in the launcher or in setttings, how can I fix this. Also where is the location of the defualt contacts app in android? So far I have gotten calculator, calendar, my dictionary, photo story, weather, tasks,clock, and gallery to install.

Have you decompiled them and looked in the android.manifest.XML file? You can't just stick APKs in system/app and expect them to work. They will be reliant on framework files your ROM doesn't have. You'll have to use apktool to decompile them first and then try to make them compatible with your framework as well as signing them. Look up and do lots of reading about apktool
Where is the contacts apk located?
