Does this require a de odexed rom? The stock galaxy nexus has odex files so im not sure if this will work?
Also you mention the exchangegoogle.apk this isnt provided here, do you mean you backed up the stock one and reinstated it along with the moded emailgoogle.apk after a reboot?
Cheers

I would say it requires de-odexed ROM.
I can't install this as normal application, it will return fail.
So I know I need to clear the email off the system (including the ExchangeGoogle).
Backed it up, delete and reboot.
Then I copy both of them back and reboot it.

guys you dont need to touch ExchangeGoogle at all.
EmailGoogle is all you need.

Are we sure this requires deodexed rom? I'm willing to root for this, but it's a-little early for me to start flashing. I usually don't do that until I'm bored with stock.
Thanks irtehun!

Pretty sure it has to be de-odexed, but u could let us know if it works on stock.

I accepted your challenge. Unfortunately when I launch email it just tells me that unfortunately exchange services has stopped.
Perhaps I'll be flashing sooner than I thought.

Must have to be de-odexed. Send me a pm and ill give u my email and will try to mod the stock one to work

Well, I thought I'd get it over with - so I flashed the Revolution HD rom for my Galaxy Nexus.
I tried both methods, copying and CWM for the modified apk but I still get the exchange error when opening the email app. I copied back the original apk and it launched OK.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I sent you a PM in case...
Thanks!

Which is why I deleted/backup EmailGoogle.apk and ExchangeGoogle.apk, reboot and copy paste back the modded EmailGoogle.apk and ExchangeGoogle.apk.
Else, I'll just get exchange services has stopped.

zaidaiman, can I ask what rom you're using?
I swear I did it right, but it's still a no go for me.
I copied the 2 APKs EmailGoogle and ExchangeGoogle to sdcard for backup.
I deleted the 2 files from system/app
rebooted
copied the modded EmailGoogle and then the ExchangeGoogle APKs back to system/app
changed file permissions to read/write, read, read.
rebooted.
Immediately on bootup I get the exchange error. I tried to go through email setup and got the exchange error several more times then it closed the email app.

I'm using kwiboo's ICS AOSP ROM with franco.kernel ICS on Nexus S.
How about you try to set it up, just ignore the bloody exchange service has stopped, reboot and uninstall it through titanium.
I think the issue is the some sort of "registry". Need to clear this one for sure.

Works
Works on I9000 ICS port Beta1. I just followed the steps in OP. Thanks

I use Exchange mail for work and I'm curious: why would you actually need this? Is this only for people who have specific security policies that prevent the stock Email app from connecting to the server?

No it bypasses the password lock so u don't have to enter password every time u unlock

PS: not sure if it is the apk you modded's fault or the exhange - but after a couple of reboots or 24hours, the email stops responding - and I get a "cannot connect due to security" message.
Need to re-enable pin lock, then re-synch, then change the unlock method again.

Contact photos question

Hi all! Asking for a little help from the xda crew. Yesterday I went through the process of rooting my sgs4g, doing a Titanium Backup, flashing from Froyo to the GB starter pack, and finally installing Valhalla Black edition. Everything went *super* smooth and I love it! The only issue I have is that my contacts will not populate with facebook photos, which I believe is because Valhalla does not use the "accountsandsync.apk"
I believe this to be true based on this thread in another forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102157
Now, that being said, I thought I could just reinstall from my TB file, but I think this is where I made a small mistake yesterday. I backed up "all apps+system data" and when I try to restore the accounts and sync file TB hangs up at the popup window. After doing some research it appears that this may be due to the fact that I saved it with the Froyo system data? *If* all I've said so far is true, could someone please share the "accountsandsync.apk" and anything else I might need to restore this feature in GB on Valhalla Black?
Some simple instructions on where to put the file and how to install would be welcomed with a smile as well!
If I'm incorrect in my assumptions, hopefully someone will get me pointed in another direction so that my phone will populate my contact list with facebook photos again.
To be complete in my attempts at a fix I have tried multiple scenarios between syncing with google, and in the facebook app sync menu with no results.
Thank you in advance for your help!
-Devlin.

My contact pictures always worked fine, even with Valhalla Black. After using TB to restore apps, make sure you log out of Facebook app then log back in and select sync all. After that my contact pictures always populate afterwards. Even the newest Rom by Raver works fine.

Hi, thanks for your reply. For s&g I tried to log out and log back into the FB app but this didn't update my list. This is certainly not a ROM issue. It has to do with not being able to restore my 'accounts and sync' apk. I imagine my contact photos would work if I could restore the accounts and sync apk from TB, but as I stated TB hangs when I try this. I believe this is because of the way I backed it up while still on Froyo. I believe that I need the actual apk from someone currently on GB in order to make this work again...so, original request still stands. Thanks again.

Yes.. rather than use TB to restore I would push the .apk. Anytime you can do fresh installs in better than using TB because it can sometimes cause issues. For future reference you can get most .apks from other ROMs like the stock GB rom.
I use 'Super Manager' from the app market. Open 'Super Manager' then go into file manager. Check your settings in Super Manager by going into setup/root and make sure 'enable ROOT function' is checked. Find your AccountAndSync.apk on your SD Card and copy. Press 'Back up level folder' twice. Go into 'system/app' and make sure 'system is set to (r/w). Paste the AccountsAndSync.apk in the folder.

Thanks a bunch. The app shows up in my app drawer, but force closes when I click on it. I tried to navigate to the file in the system/app folder and set permissions but Super Manager has a blank screen for permissions. Tried install and that process failed as well. Now I'm at a loss for ideas. Might you have any yourself? :/ Also did a reboot, tried to resync with FB app, no success.

I flashed Raver's latest ROM. It had Accounts and Sync in it.
If you have not done it yet try fixing permissions. Uninstall facebook reinstall. Clear cache, fix permissions, uninstall, reinstall fresh... these are all the things I would try.
If all else fails flash the most current release and see what happens. I don't use facebook.
EDIT: Look at the attached files in my previous post. I added one. You may be needing that apk as well.

I saw the "accounts" menu item in settings in my release but it force closed when I tried to use it. Next weekend I should have some more time to do a fresh install and update to the new release. I am on the Beta Rc2 release and I LOVE IT!! As soon as I get my tax return Raver's gonna get a donation!!

Glad you have it working!

Empty CWM file
The 2 apk files that you want to take from "EP4D Deodexed System Apps" are "BackupAssistant.apk" and "LiveWallpapersPicker.apk" and put them into this "Empty CWM file" in the /system/app, then flash this "Empty CWM zip file" using CWM. This process will take the apk app from the "Empty CWM file" and place them into your phone's /system/app. Read the instruction from OP for more details.

Thanks.. But I just ended up reflashing a bloated version & removing the crud myself.
She's having another dilemma.. In the Samsung email app, the icon next to the account name "[email protected]", is always spinning, even when there's no new mail or isn't refreshing.. I have it set on automatic (push) delivery, before it was on this she never had this problem.
The emails are making it through in 3-5 minutes, she just hates it because she always thinks it's still loading.. Does anyone know of something I can try to fix this?

yahoo mail take a while to authenticate and download, if you set to push, for one email it's going to take 5 min, so basically, it's running all the time. I suggest you set to longer time (recommend 3hrs or more) for checking. Myself to save battery I set to manual, and hit refresh when I want to download new email.

[App]GMail from Android 4.2

This is a leaked version from Android 4.2
There are new features and seems to be working on Android 4.0+
Enjoy! Not my work, I take no credit, just passing it along

Hows everyone liking it? Swipe to delete is great! Any bugs out there?

The link in that thread was removed but here it is
Installation Option 1:
]
Uninstalled old apk with Titanium -> Reboot -> Installed new Gmail apk with explorer -> Reboot - Done
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Installation Option 2:
The Gmail 4.2 APK is signed by Google, but with a different key than the one in the Play Store (we checked the signatures - they differ). One is probably the test key and the other the production key. For this reason, you can't simply install it as an update and therefore need to be rooted with the ability to mount the /system directory for writing in order to remove the existing Gmail APK.
OK, let's get down to it. You'll probably need ADB installed on your computer (here's an easy way that doesn't require downloading the Android SDK). There is a chance that this might work without ADB by just removing the APKs mentioned below and installing the new one, but it didn't seem to work reliably for everyone. This should, though:
1. Download Gmail 4.2 from one of the mirrors above.
2. Rename it to Gmail2.apk.
3. Make a Nandroid backup in case something goes wrong (this is always a good thing to do before messing with your device).
4. Delete (or move if you want to save the APKs) all other versions of Gmail. Usually there are 2 or 3 copies. One will be in /system/app (that's the original Gmail that was pre-installed on the device) and there may be a few in /data/app (these are the updates installed from the Play Store). They'll be called "Gmail.apk," or "com.google.android.gm-[number].apk," An easy way to tell is to look for the Gmail icon.
5. You may need to delete the .odex files matching the APKs in step 4 too, if you have them. Neither I nor Artem had to do this, but there are many different ROMs out there, and we're trying to cover all bases. Ignore this step and only come back to it if something doesn't work later.
6. Reboot. Once you do, you should have no Gmail as far as Android is concerned.
7. You can try to install the Gmail 4.2 APK you downloaded at this point by tapping it in your favorite file explorer (move the APK to your device first, of course). If that doesn't work, or if you prefer ADB, fire up a command line and type adb install Gmail2.apk.
If you get an error message, you probably didn't delete all copies of Gmail. If you don't feel like playing with ADB for Step 7, I've also gotten it to work by just copying the APK to /data/app, but that's not as fool proof as "ADB install".

I personally used root explorer and changed the original gmail apk to Gmail2.bak (yours may either be in system/app or data/app) mine was in data/app because im using AOSP, for stock touchwiz it might be in system/app. For AOSP its probably going to be named com.gmail.apk or something along the lines of that. Anyways after you delete/rename your original one move the 4.2 Gmail2.apk to system/app, set the permissions and reboot. It MUST be in system/app and you have to set the permissions and reboot for it to work

I can't try that on my machine right now, well at least not my laptop and wont have access to my desktop until Saturday. I did however try this originally on my Nexus 7 with 4.3 and it failed, so I am not sure it would even work on 4.4 especially since the mail app has apparently been updated.

I am also very interested in this...

I haven't been able to test these yet, but If someone wants to check report back. If not I will check tomorrow. Stock email and exchange apks with the pin bypassed.
Backup your current email and exchange apks including their odexed files and push these to system/app, set permissions, and reboot.
Exchange2Google.apk - 1.12 MB
EmailGoogle.apk - 4.81 MB

Trying now, will respond with an update in 15min.
Update: Here is what I did, and please tell me if I did this wrong or need to replace my odex files. I changed the 2 apk files and their odex files to .bak after their names. Moved the 2 files you linked into system and changed permissions. Rebooted the device. Setup my email. Added my account and it asked for permission, hit activate and it did not make me set a passcode. Email is syncing now.
Only question is, should I make a copy of the 2 odex files and just put them back in there, or leave it without and .odex files? I have no idea what the .odex files actually do which is why I am asking.

I followed the steps in the other thread, made a flashable zip then flashed it. Working fine here :victory:

Quick question...
Does this patch fix the syncing issue? I have to set up my work email using IMAP, instead of exchange, as the Email app stops syncing after a couple of hours, when I set it up using exchange. Just wondering. Thanks.

I tried this patch and it stops syncing after a while too. I could not get it to work after trying multiple times. I just switched to the 4.3 version and it's working perfectly.

I patched mine with the first method of copying the files over myself and 16 hours later it is still syncing my mail just fine. Setup as Exchange account with active sync.

I followed the steps in the other thread, made a flashable zip then flashed it. Working fine here :victory:

Zip worked. Thanks

Flashable zip worked fine for me.
I did try switching to the ART runtime and I then got constant FC's on the email app/exchange app. I reflashed and it still had the issue.
After switching back to Dalvik, all is working and it didn't need another flash. So stay on Dalvik.

Having the same issue. Hopefully someone can make an ART runtime version that will not FC.

I used to use the modded apk's too, until I snagged "Enhanced Email" created by the developer himself from the amazon market for free.

I used to use it too, but sadly now the look is too out of date. It also doesn't look like the developer has any plans to update it anytime soon.

That is true, I tried using the stock app, but the 8 digit policy from my employer made me go back
