Hello,
I recently rooted my Samsung Charge using 0602_charge_novoodo.zip, CWM and Odin. I then applied GummyCharged1.8.1.zip.
The default calendar app is no longer in the list of "scrolling" apps. When I go to "settings --> manage applications", I do see it there (listed as 8kb), however, I just can't do anything with it.
Can I just restore a link somehow? Any advice is appreciated.
Hopefully this makes sense, I'm not too good w/ the lingo.
Thanks.

Use root explorer or the like to peek inside the ROM file zip on your sdcard. You should be able to install it or copy it over to /system/app folder.

I found "Calendar.apk" and moved it to the /system/apps folder. I know see CALENDAR in the list of applications but when I try to create an event it just loads and loads. I noticed the drop down where one selects what calendar to post to when creating an event is blank (I can't select a calendar). Any ideas?
Thx

I would download gummycharged 1.8.5 and flash the rom again. If you still have issues I would wipe and then install gummy.

Thanks. Will give it a try tonight.
I believe Gummy removes the stock calendar. Many other people are having the same issue and can not get the stock calendar back.
Look at this post:

Hi friends
I tried replacing my HTC One S's stock browser but failed, now I can't for the life of me get the original back to work. Anything I install that would fill the gap of the original browser force closes.
Anyone knows how I can get the original HTC One S stock browser back?
I'm rooted and with Titanium Backup.
To be honest, it doesn't even have to be the original HTC One browser, it could be any ICS stock browser that has Flash capabilities, tabs etc.

Try Dolphin from the Market.
Thanks, but it has to be a com.android.browser.apk browser, not just any browser from Google Play (as long as it works on a stock HTC One S of course).
personally, i use google chrome because it's as good if not better than the stock browser. plus, since you already sign in with your google account to access the play store, it will automatically sync your favorites and what not if you use chrome on your regular computer. but it does support flash and has tabs, etc
Did you actually delete the stock browser? Or did you change a setting that is causing the problem?

I wanted to replace it with the stock browser from a different device through Titanium Backup, so yeah, it's gone.
Because I'm always moving through tabs and putting tabs away, the fact that the HTC Sense browser needed an additional click to access tabs each and every time angered me beyond reason. My ICS browser on the Xperia neo was much more practical, so I figured I'd replace it and my problem would be gone. Now I have neither...
I do use Chrome now, which is good except that it doesn't do Flash, but if I can get the regular browser back I expect to be able to get the official OTA updates, which so far are impossible because the updater checks for the original browser.
Edit: from your signature, you have the same device I have, mine is a T-Mobile One S too.
Here you go. Taken from Viper ROM.

Thanks for the help brother. My system is odexed so I think this can't work. I tried placing it in the /system/app folder either way, but it didn't work, as expected.

Somehow my Titanium Backup doesn't recognize that file as a backup, though it does appear in the list of apps available within TB (see attached). Perhaps because a properties file is missing?
Anyway I'm told it's impossible to restore a deodexed browser into an odexed device, so I think this can't work... but thanks for trying.

Can't you just run it from file manager and install?

No, this definitely doesn't work with system apps in HTC One S. I did have this option in other devices though, after rooting (Motorola Milestone, Xperia neo).
If at all possible to get the HTC Sense browser it'll be better because then I can install their official update.
JB 4.2 Browser.apk installable without root
So Chrome.apk has been pissing me off lately. It annoys me how Google keeps releasing updates with major usability regressions, (like the fuzzy text), and how the scrolling performance is still terrible compared to stock WebViews.
Was going to sideload AOSP Browser.apk, but as you guys know this requires a rooted device, and I wasn't willing to root my Nexus 4.
Anyways, I finally decided to do something about it a few weeks ago and hacked a few things in AOSP Browser.apk from JellyBean 4.2.2 so that it can run without root. Basically, I accomplished this by changing the name and making private Browser.apk's bookmarks provider so as to avoid conflict with the system. As a side effect, Browser.apk has a different bookmark database than Chrome.apk.
I've been running this for a few weeks and everything seems to work pretty well. Let me know if this works.
For your pleasure the source is available here on GitHub (h**ps://github.com/profiterole/browser.apk sorry too new to post links). For your convenience, a .APK is also available for download from GitHub (linked from readme)
Please note: this APK requires Android Jelly Bean MR1 (4.2), and has only been tested on a Nexus 4. I would also encourage you NOT to sign with your google account as this hasn't been tested and may overwrite any bookmarks you have synced.

I definitely wouldn't mind grabbing the basic browser.apk, moreso if possible to install without rooting. I don't know the ins and outs of github though. Am I supposed to download the BrowserActivity.apk file at the end of the page you linked?

It's because HTC has modified the one for the One X more than likely. And as it is, it probably won't work on the Iconia in stock form.
You can try porting the app to the Iconia.

i would do so if i would know how to extract it from the oneX... im not very firm with modding

There are multiple ways to do this:
1. This would require root on your htc one x.
Go to /data/app and search for the gallery. Copy and paste it on your sd card or internal memory (/data/sdcard) and transfer it to your tablet.
Then try installing the apk and see if it works.
2. This would require root on both your htc one x and your acer iconia tab a700.
Install the app Titanium Backup root. Open up the app and search in Back-up/Restore for the Gallery app. Then tap it and choose for Back-up!. Then go to your internal memory (or sd card if Titanium Backup installed on the sd card) (data/sdcard) and transfer the folder TitaniumBackup to your tablet. Now install Titanium Backup root on your tablet and go to Back-up/Restore. Search for the gallery (probably grayed out with a line through it. If you can't find it, search for the already installed gallery, tap it and press restore.
3. Try making an .apk file from the gallery on your htc one x. I think I've seen an app doing that with root permissions, but can't find/remember. So I found a way which would NOT require root on your htc one x.
Install the app Save Master. I don't know how it works, 'cause I've never been using it before, but you probably can find that out yourself
4. This is not actual porting, but you can search for the internal name of the app (with Link2SD and search for it on Google.
To find the internal app name, launch the app and search for the gallery. You'll see the location of the app, probably something like this:
/system/app/com.htc.gallery.apk. Then take the part after the / and search for it on Google. If you can't find it, try adding htc one x to your search.
So, I wanted to do a factory reset on My old Sensation so I could give it to my dad. I did it, but I forgot that I removed default home application from it. And since I removed my account from it, there is no GoLauncher Ex on it theat I used either, so I can't see any screen, menus, nothing. All I can do is I am able to use notification bar and view settings. I have no backup anywhere. Why did I ever even root you ask if I am not computer or phoney savy, well, because I wanted to remove some apps, so here I am now. Any ideas?
you can flash the rom again

Could I simply install GoLauncher on it somehow?
IF you have a another android phone or a computer you could enable bluetooth and send the apk file wich is go launcher. You can search Google "go launcher apk download".

Press thanks if it helped
You can install it by using sdk using a computer but my guess is that you dont know how to do that so just download the official ruu if you are bootloader lock or there are many stock rooted roms if u have s-off and have a custom recovery...
I mean no disrespect by assuming u cant flash an apk through sdk on a pc...
Forgot to mention there is a third and easier way which is to find a launcher zip that can be flashed on recovery like touchwiz from the galaxy s3 then you can flash then you can install any other app out of the play store and remove or keep the flashed launcher just in case you reset the phone again...

Best thing to do is. Download golauncher apk file to your computer then either you send it via Bluetooth,or you can create or have account in any file sharing site eg. Box or dropbox. Uploaded to that then make file as for sharing to friends, you will get specific wab address to access that file then download from ur phone. You will see download in dropdown notification menu install file from there.

Thanks guys, you are right, I don't know how to flash, no offence taken, I just wanted to share an easy solution, perhaps someone messes up like I did some day, in settings I went to TTS and pretended to want to download English files. That lauched Market for me and I just downloaded Go Launcher from there. I was just veeeeery lucky.
I just flashed a firmware that came stock with Holo Launcher HD launcher, and I have used this ROM before and successfully killed it and replaced with Trebuchet or TouchWiz. Well, now I killed it in Titanium Backup, and it still shows up when I press home, completely intact. However, It is no longer in the Titanium or Settings menu Apps list, and when I try to install a different launcher it does not ask me which I would like to set as default when I press home. I would just clear the defaults but like I said it doesn't show up in any Apps list on the system or Titanium. So now I am stuck on junk Holo Launcher HD launcher with seemingly no possible alternatives. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Re-flash and try again.
Install file manager with root access (I use root explorer)
Reboot
Navigate to /system/app
Delete launcher apk
Reboot

The APK is missing. And I only have about 40 APKs so I wouldnt miss it if it was there. Looks like Im going to have to reflash.
