I'm wondering if it's OK to replace the internal messenger app with the T-Mobile Hercules messaging APK without problems. The stock messenger app is really trash and I can't stand it.
For anyone wondering, it did work.
Here's the APK if anyone wants it: http://www.mediafire.com/?ro656toauw8akv4

I tried using the stock android MMS.apk from Nocturnal_Xi40_One_X_r107 ROM but it force closes every time I try to send an SMS.
I backed up then uninstalled the HTC Messages app using TitaniumBackup, then pushed the stock android MMS.apk to /system/apps/ and restarted the phone. I tried it both with HtcMessageProvider installed and uninstalled as I don't know what it does. I didn't try it with HtcMessageUploader uninstalled.
Any input would be appreciated.
I was able to install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.concentriclivers.mms.com.android.mms but ended up going back to the HTC Messages app because I liked the functionality better. This whole thing started for me because I removed HtcLinkifyDispatcher so that my youtube (and other) web links would work like stock ICS (not the bastardized HTC/AT&T approach) - but when I removed that I couldn't open links from inside the Messages app. Really need to find a way to avoid the AT&T-specific link handling while still using HTC Messages...
I'm looking for a way to replace my Samsung GS3's contacts app with an ASOP style app (CM would be best for me). I used to run CM but through a long story my phone was returned to stock and had the 4.3 OTA installed on it. I'm stuck now.
I managed to replace the Samsung Email app with the CM 10.2 version of same and thanks to Google releasing their Calendar app on the Play Store I just disabled S Planner (hate it) and use that. The only one left is the god-awful contacts app. I tried using the same process I did for the email app, which was to wipe data and remove the Samsung email apps accounts and then use Titanium Backup to uninstall it. I then went and put the Email.apk file from CyanogenMod 10.2 in its place. Worked like a charm for email but the contacts app keeps telling me there is an error with the package when I do this.
I also tried using both Contacts.apk and ContactsProvider.apk but that didn't work either. Anyone have an ideas? The problem is no matter what I do the system won't recognize Contacts.apk as an app and list it.
Any help would be appreciated.
I'm pretty sure the contacts app relies on the phone app as well to work properly. You might be better off trying to find a contacts app from the store that is similar to CM
Has anyone figured out how to install GTalk on a newer android device (e.g. Nexus 7 2013). I've tried uninstalling Hangouts and then installing GTalk, but it won't install.
I absolutely hate Hangouts with a passion; so if anyone has a way to get GTalk on a newer android please let me know (and include links to things like GTalk app or whatever please). Thanks.
Does anyone have the stock HTC Mail apk that came with the phone? I removed it with TB but now I want it back. Thanks
Hi everybody,
I have a slight issue with my HTC one S. I tried to get rid of some of the built-in apps (like Facebook and such) by rooting my phone and using titanium backup. Well, I made a backup before I rooted my phone and in this backup I also included my email settings (which also includes the exchange server of my work). Now, I was trying to recover the mail settings, and all of a sudden the stock HTC mail programme was deleted from my phone. Titanium actually says it has been deleted but I cannot seem to find the original apk back anywhere.
I tried installing the original Google Email apk including the exchange server framework, but it seems to be stuck somewhere (no idea why). So...my question to you guys is; is there anyone who could help me with the APK for the mail client on the HTC One S (Android 4.1.1)?
You guys are the best!
