You install this like all other apk's.
Download or copy file to sdcard and start install and that's it

If you can't install like apk, rename and copy the phonesky.apk to system/app and restart. You must have root phone.

We say that now.. but soon everyone will just get used to it and not really care for the name imo. (btw I agree with you, don't really like this "play" thing they're trying to incorporate) but soon enough! We'll like it and get used to it!

its not that they changed the name its the fact that they changed it to something that doesn't make sense. Android market told u everything u needed to know in the title, a place to buy Android things, Google play just doesn't sound good, what is it? a play place?

My guess was it had to do with some settlement or patent thing with apple etc. smh

Under the My Apps Section you get to see the apps currently installed and the apps that you installed before..
Another difference i can see is that the comments by people on the app screens seems to have a UI tweak

Just install it as a normal apk file.
If its not possible then remove the old market apk from system/apps and reinstall this again.

news and weather app

I really like the google news and weather app that is on my phone. Is there any way to get it working on the Fire? I tried placing the apk in my /system/app folder and changing permission but upon reboot it was not showing up in my app drawer. There must be more involved.
Anyone know?
Thanks

Beautiful Widgets has some nice weather apps but they are not from Google.

I know what you mean. I pulled the APK from my HTC Inspire 4G and sideloaded it on KF. It even works with-out rooting. You have to give it a zip code to make it work, but thats no big deal.

If you don't want to type a zip code in and want to use geolocation you could install a modaco custom rom. The rom has built in network location and play store. You should only do this if you have already rooted and installed twrp. What you have now is probably fine.

So it sounds like you got it working then. Would you mind uploading the apk you used? Are you using a stock ROM by chance or something else on the Fire?

If you have play store you could download it and get the version for the kindle fire

Thanks, I will grab it and try it out when I flash back to a stock type rom. I am trying out CM7 right now and it has the app installed. Hopefully this one will work with a stock rom.
Thanks

Well I got it installed on the stock rooted rom I am running but it will not show up in the app drawer I can open it through titanium backup though. Seems weird it will not show in the app drawer. Unfortunately I have no way that I know of to get it to my favorites and not have to go through titanium backup to open it. Wiping dalvik and cache didn't work, nor did clearing the launcher data.

[MOD] Windy Weather Live Wallpaper w/ No Watermark

I liked the Windy Weather live wallpaper that came with the GSIII, but I didn't like the ever so noticeable watermark that is on it. I've also seen requests for versions without the watermark so, I took it out back and beat it senseless until it was gone. See the screenshots below for a preview. (I will add more screenshots later)
READ BEFORE INSTALLING
- I recommend making a back-up of the original WeatherWall.apk at /system/app BEFORE installing this.
- This only removes the AccuWeather watermark. The name of your current city will still be visible.
- This live wallpaper was pulled from a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III. Although it should, I have not tested if this will work on other versions of the Galaxy S III. I don't think it will work on other phones (because of screen size issues), but it may!
- You must have root in order to install this.
- Install at YOUR OWN risk. While highly unlikely, I take no responsibility if this damages your phone in any way.
Installation:
Manually:
1. Download the WeatherWall.apk provided and put it on your SD card
2. Open up your favorite file manager application on your phone that has system read and write capability. I prefer Root Explorer
3. Navigate to wherever you placed the downloaded .apk and move it to "system/app" overwriting the unmodified "WeatherWall.apk"
4. Restart your phone and enjoy!
NEW! Flashable: (Easier!)
1. Download the WindyWeather-NoWM.zip provided and put it on your SD card
2. Re/boot to recovery and flash the .zip file
3. Restart your phone and enjoy!
:good:

nice!

Thanks for this! Just waiting for the flashable version.

Hmmm... Also make sure when you're overwriting the old one that it sticks. You can do this by looking at the date last modified in your file manager. If it says anything but the current date and time then it did not overwrite it. If that's the case make sure your file manager has SU and root privileges and it is mounted in read and write mode. Once I get a flash working this should be much easier, but it does nothing but fail in TWRP when I try to flash the one I have put together.

ok thanks for working on it....but see thats the prob...there wasn't one there originally. maybe the rom i am on had it removed...but either way it should show up after moving it to that folder under live wallpapers right?

The key is to make sure that WeatherWall.apk is your /system/app directory. Normally you should be overwriting an old .apk. Like you said though maybe you're rom doesn't use it so may not work. As far as I know it 100% works with Touchwiz on ICS. Someone said it did work with an AOSP based rom, but I'm not sure if this was ICS or JB.

Unfortunately, I believe that the city name watermark is coded into the live wallpaper, so unless I had the non compiled version I can't do anything to remove it.

I am a lil apprehensive having to ask someone this bc it is a lil embarrassing but I went to system/app and was going to backup the windy weather app but it isn't in there....?? Help? Thank u

This is sick. It worked flawlessly on my Tmobile S3.
Would removing the city watermark also be possible?

Nice. I'd completed this mod myself when I got my s4 shortly after release, but never got around to testing it (did the same thing for my s2 back in the day). Got distracted trying to turn it into a vrtheme to make it compatible with 'all' version of camera (this way it replaces the resource files in apk and keeps that current version of camera installed). It's still just sitting in a couple of folders somewhere on my server....
(However, I think apk version means you should be able to push with adb without requiring root??)

I'm on a bell i9505 and it crashes on me after 3 seconds of use
Unfortunately I screwed up and my backup of my stock aPk was unsuccessful
Can someone please give me the stock aPk for the camera or tell me how I'd go about fixing my camera app

Couple of options...flash your rom again (extreme!) or just replace the modded apk with original apk. Some roms include updated camera software (not sure if there has been an update, but you never know) so best to get apk from the same rom version you are currently running
Also, need to make sure rom is deodexed (you could try deleting the associated odex file and see if crash stops)

I use Tasker to set the phone to vibrate or silent mode when the camera app is active. Works like a charm, and I don't have to mess with custom software. I wouldn't even have to be rooted, if I weren't already.

(this works in my head...) You use a vrtheme (flashable zip) that replaces the ogg files (resources) in the apk with silent ogg files (vrtheme usually replaces the image resources so that you can change the look of apps such as what you see HERE)

oh... i did it manually by decompiling.. well... i cant see why it would make it compatible with other roms..
an example.
i hate the clock and alarm app in samsung.. but love the sony one... i cant install it on my samsung... so i need to port it.. but the thing you said there.. would not do the trick... there must be something else, an identifier of the phone or something.

[Q] Where is Smart Manager App on At&t Galaxy S6?

I've tried following the guides from all the reviews and tip and tricks articles online. I even hard rest my phone thinking I had deleted the app by mistake while clearing the bloat. I've used S-Search, Google Play store, Samsung App Store and I can't find it. This app is featured in the At&t product help video but it seems to not be accessible. I'm looking for help finding it.
Thank you in advance.

They removed it. Same as Verizon

Why would they do that? Is there a good app to clear out the ram and close unneeded running apps? I use to use Active apps widget on my S4 everyday. Is the best option just to restart it everyday now? Thanks for any help. Oh, I meant to also ask if there's a way to get this from Samsung and reinstall it? I couldn't find it on Samsungs website.

I found it in the settings, app management. It shows it using data and/or memory. But I can't get it to turn on or create a shortcut.
This is my first Android phone, came from Windows Phone ecosystem.

I can extract apk if needed don't know of it will work for u though
