Myself and apparently many others like the AOSP apps better than the sense apps. I find the interface for the AOSP messaging, calendar, browser, calculator, and dialer/contacts applications to be more attractive and in some cases more usable. I really liked Bugless Beast 0.4 since it featured these applications, but I have had a hard time with the bug that keeps disk drive from working, and there are various reports of some syncing and battery issues. The EVO-NonSense series has been great too, but I use HDMI out sometimes and like having some of the sense stuff installed. Big thanks to both BuglessPete and tjohnsonjr for their AOSP work.
(7/18/2010) I have attached some of the files I have been using, see descriptions at the bottom of the post.
So since it took a little digging for me to figure out how to do this (even though to advanced users this is easy) I thought it might come in handy for other new users. Additionally I'm hoping by posting this someone can help me figure out how to get the dialer/contacts stuff working, I have the others working fine.
I've done the below on DamageControl, and I think another (baked snack maybe, can't remember). I'll probably throw together an update.zip that can patch these in place later, but I'd rather get the dialer/contacts part figure out first.
Setup:
1. You will need a fully rooted (toast root part 2, NAND unlocked) phone, and adb up and running. There are several explanations for both parts, but the ones listed in the "useful threads" sticky are joeykrim's for adb and toast's part 1 and part 2 for root.
2. I have been using the apk's from BuglessPete's bugless beast 0.4 ROM. The thread for it is available here.
Once you unzip the file, you will find the needed apks in the /system/app folder.
Note: Please donate to pete, he doesn't even have an EVO yet and is doing some great work. Hopefully if he has a phone to work on he can get some of these small bugs squashed and keep the development for BB going.
3. Backup your phone. If you don't know how to reboot into recovery and restore from a nandroid backup, you do not want to do this yet, especially if you want to try help me figure out how to get the dialer running. The idea with the dialer is to try different things until something works. In all likelihood you will hit a point where things are FCing so much you can't do anything. You will almost certainly need to restore from a Nandroid backup at some point.
Important: More than likely anything I list here can't break a phone in a way that a nandroid restore won't fix, but I can not and will not be accountable for any problems with your phone.
Which files:
One nice thing about adding files this way is you can pick and choose what to use. If you like the stock messaging but want the AOSP calendar, you can do just that.
Calculator: Calculator.apk
Calendar: CalendarProvider.apk and Calendar.apk
Default "Navigator" application: CarDock.apk <- you can keep both
Internet: Browser.apk and HTMLViewer.apk <- doesn't show previews of each tab, but allows up to 8 instead of 4. There may be other functionality gained or lost, I dunno.
Clock: DeskClock.apk (can exist beside HTC clock, and can be installed without this procedure)
Messaging (SMS, Text): Mms.apk <- Many people have trouble with this one.
####### Not Working! See post #2 ########
# Phone: Phone.apk, ContactsProvider.apk, Contacts.apk
###################################
To install:
I think you can use adb to do this install with the files still on the computer, but I go ahead and throw all the needed apks onto my sdcard, typically in a folder. Also, if you need to be in the Android SDK's /tools directory to use adb (this depends on your configuration) do that. Connect your phone, and make sure it is in "Charge Only" so the sdcard stays mounted. To make sure adb sees the phone properly issue:
Code:
adb devices
and you should get a return listing the device ID. If so we will mount the /system partition as read-write:
Code:
adb remount
Log into the phones local shell:
Code:
adb shell
you are now on the phones command line and file system, not on your local machine. Now we can start installing files. I'll use Calculator in this example, and I have the apk in a folder on the sdcard called AOSP_apks:
Code:
install /sdcard/AOSP_apks/Calculator.apk /system/app
You can do a couple at a time, and you must do more than one at a time when installing a provider like CalendarProvider.apk and Calendar.apk.
Once you are done, exit the phone's shell, and reboot the phone:
Code:
exit
adb reboot
The change may show up immediately, but the phone and applications aren't designed to change these core functions on the fly, so make sure to reboot the phone. Once it reboots you will probably notice the AOSP icon has replaced the former, and you have the AOSP skin and/or functionality.
Post #2 will deal with progress so far on the dialer/contacts.
(added 7/17) Notes on different apks: The BB Launcher2.apk has his skin on the google search widget, or grab the apk from something else like DC for stock. Launcher.apk from BB is the one with the wide drawer and (I think) 9 screens.
Music.apk from DC is the modded music app from Cyanogen. It has some very nice UI tweaks.
Attached:
- Music.apk used in Cyanogenmod from DC
- Calendar, CalendarProvider, Browser and HTMLViewer from BB 0.4
- CarDock, Calculator, and MMS from AOSP EVO-NonSense
Contacts/Dialer Progress: I'm sure some of the more advanced developers know the answer to this, so ideally someone can fill me in. In the meantime I'll report my findings here, and if others can add feedback to the thread on what they have done, I'll update this post. Hopefully in the long run there will be a straightforward explanation for this I can add to the above post.
I have installed the three files listed above (ContactsProvider.apk, Contacts.apk, and Phone.apk) which seems to install the right bits, but I get FCs.
Later on I added Telephony.apk and FutureDialService.apk, which didn't improve anything. Finally I noticed that Bugless Beast didn't have HTCDialer.apk, so I removed that as well. I think this was the point things went from the dialer and contacts applications FCing to non-stop FCs that kept me from doing anything on the phone.
Attached are the three apps I'm sure are involved for the Contacts/Dialer, pulled from tjohnsonjr's AOSP EVO. More files may be needed, but I'm still trying to figure out which.
The Dialer/Contacts apk used to work, I believe on ROMs that are not based off the newest OTA. Since it worked for me, but stopped once I started using ROMs based of the newest OTA. Anyways great post.
I installed the files and I cant see them. They're in the folders but its like they're hidden from the OS.
I tried to do this before since I love BB but the wake bug in v4 was killing me. I always got install errors. Did you delete the Mms.apk first.. THEN install Mms.apk and reboot? Or did you just install over it? I got errors either way. Also it totally disabled texting on my phone even after reinstalling the HTC Mms.apk.
I had to clean cache/reset then reflash my Nand backup and even then my texting was still broken until I sent one to my wife and then magically I got the 10-15 test "texts" I had sent.

Thanks and thanks. This is interesting. Of course BB is based on the older ROM, so maybe that is why BB works but this doesn't. I'll have to grab an older ROM and try that. It may be an issue of grabbing a newer build of the dialer or something.

Did it overwrite the existing files? Or do you totally not have whatever you installed, AOSP or sense? Which ROM and version?

Were you able to successfully do the adb remount first? The way I did it just overwrote the existing Mms.apk.

BBv3 and yes the remount worked.. I am currently in my 84th hour of a long battery duration test so I can't plug it in and try it right now since it will wipe my stats. However it would give some "parse" error and then fail to install. If I forced it by just cp'ing the apk and chmod'ing the exec permissions it would fail horribly.
84th hour of a battery duration test? details please?

Was it something like

If so, I had the same error when I didn't have the /system partition fully mounted as read-write. Did you get any errors from the "adb remount" command?

Hmmm maybe I did and didn't notice it.. I am down to 8% right now so by mid day my battery will probably die. I am hoping to make the 100Hr on one charge mark, after that I will try again and note any errors.

ok so I just redid your steps and I didn't get the error code this time (maybe my remount didn't work the last time I tried it). But now I get FC everytime I try and launch the text app. I installed over the Htc mms.apk =(
Anyone got an HTC Mms.apk handy they can post so I don't have to restore nand?
If you have the AOSP apps available, could you please post them all in .zip folder in the OP?

NVM I extracted it from an old nand backup. So, for me at least the Mms.apk from AOSP causes FCs and won't run at all . Put the HTC Mms.apk back and it works fine. =( Urgh any hints?
edited to add the HTC Mms.apk incase someone does what I did and kills it, so they dont' have to go through the process of trying to extract it.

Interesting that you say that, since I had some MMS texts in my cache. Wondering if when the AOSP version couldn't deal with them so it just FC'ed instead.
So I tried that, deleting ALL my texts so it wouldn't have some MMS collision or something. But that didn't work either, HTC Mms.apk works fine.. the AOSP.apk FC's. Could the OP or something with a working AOSP Mms.apk post it maybe it's my copy. Mine has an MD5 of : 441e3b8863bc3ab88ce6ad9bc1671f22
I have mms messages in my cache too. The AOSP apk shows them fine, just can't send new mms messages. Maybe your file is corrupt?

Here's a working kb that I know works for eclair roms (more specifically, it works for me on Darchdroid 2.7 (an AOSP ROM). If anyone is able to get this to work okay using sense roms, that's great, otherwise, sorry.
Just put the file into u'r c:\ folder and push it via adb
Code:
adb push c:\DroidXIME.apk /system/app/
I just added the 'q-ime.apk' file as well. This file is similar to the DroidXIME.apk file, but, in my opinion, it seems to have better response than the droidxime.apk file. It also fixes a problem with displaying a correct symbol in the characters section of the kb.
Enjoy
I installed it via Astro manager, but even though it shows it's installed, I cannot find any settings to assign it as the default keyboard. Would it have anything to do with it being the latin keyboard? I do see the settings for "multitouch keyboard" but that's it. Also is there any visual difference between this one and the stock keyboard?
It'll look the same or similar to the stock KB. The multitouch is this KB

Use it like a normal computer keyboard ie: hold down the 'shift' key while you push another key to make it a capital, then release and keep typing - works great!

use RootExplorer (find an apk) and use that..its better/easier than using a terminal emulator, plus, u dont need to remember/copy all those commands
does this keyboard have the spacebar bug where it only responds to the top of the button
in your build.prop replace the current text with this: you can get things like tv.com back
Code:
ro.build.description=passion-user 2.2.1 FRG83 60505 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=google/passion/passion/mahimahi:2.2.1/FRG83/60505:user/release-keys
i would upload one for people to flash but as some many people are on diff roms/kernels it would just cause more issues then its worth best way to go about fixing it is pulling the file from your phone (or the zip from teh rom your on). swapping out the text and pushing it back to /system
all credit goes to Decad3nce for the fix

Installed this the other day. Never had the bug where market would disconnect data but when I upgraded to this market I was getting constant disconnects.

still has it
mine upgraded itself (idk how) but now the 30mb limit is there again
The 30mb download limit is the way android is partitioned on the phone. Samsung basically halfed the partition /cache to give you more app room. Sadly the new market uses that as the download location for the app thus resulting in the limit. I forgot the thread i found this in but if youve rooted and have terminal emulator simply open it up and run these lines of code:
su
cd /
umount /cache
mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs /
rmdir /cache
mkdir /data/cache
ln -s /data/cache /cache
It moves the /cache into /data so as long as you have some free room where your phone stores apps your good. Only side effect is that you have to do it upon every reboot -.- a drag when you keep flashing things or it just crashes. Srry for the long reply, i just couldnt find the thread this was originally at. Post this around anywhere you see people in dismay about the download limit.

After every reboot would be kind of annoying, i tend to reboot my phone a few times a day. Is there any long term cure?

Put that into a script and load it with a script manager on boot, or use Entropy's kernel which fixes the market bug.
I finally had it pushed to me today through regulars updates. It's nice. New app logo as well.

What's different with this new market update? Looks exactly like my market 3.1

After my market auto upgraded itself, it always force closed. I narrowed down the problem to me editing the builprop to have density set at 200. When I set it to 240, it works, but non 240 value it failed and force closed. I replaced the market on my phone with the one distributed with ROM and all is well with density at 200.
