Install 4.2 Clock and Keyboard? - RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So Droid-Life posted the flashable zips a few days ago for the JB4.2 clock and keyboard apps. Is there any way to extract the .apk from these zips and install on the RAZR HD XT926? Obviously can't flash them since we don't have custom recovery. Just wondering if there is another way to install them. I actually already have the keyboard from last week but I really want the clock apps.
Thanks,
caseym

Sorry...can moderator please move this to Q&A?

unzip and copy over apk and lib to appropriate locations, and set permissions for each. working well for me.

You can just copy them over to the correct locations, look at the updater-script for locations and permissions.
These are included in the Vitreous Rom as well, which can be installed without unlocking your bootloader.

Not working for me...I'm wondering the same thing as jojo. I copied the apk for the clock over to /system/app and set perms correctly. When I try to install it just says App Not Installed.

Can you please post up the .apk file it would be much apreciated. I have a desire hd and this app has been removed since updting to gingerbread. Im on sense 2.1 so fingers crossed it should install.
Here's a signed flashable zip containing SearchAnywhere.apk and SearchAnywhereWidget.apk.
But it's not working!
First I tried to just install the apk. They won't install.
Then I created this zip file and flashed it. But the apk files did not transfer to \system\app
Probably somebody else has an idea how to go forward.
Well, here's another try. This time it really flashes the apk files to /system/app.
It also appears in the app drawer. But it does not run propperly. Always force closed.
still not working.
Has anyone had any luck with this. It won't install for me.

AOSP MMS + Cleanrom 4.5

Anyway to get the AOSP MMS (aka messaging) app to work on Cleanrom 4.5? I've tried replacing the files, but to no avail.

Push the aosp mms file to /system/app. Rename Message+MR_1.apk to Message+MR_1.bak then rename the aosp mms to Message+MR_1.apk. Reboot and you should be fine. You may have to change the permissions.
And also, I'm not sure, but you may have to delete Message+MR_1.odex. Actually I'm pretty sure you have to delete that too or just change it to Message+MR_1.bak1 or something like that.

thanks, I'll give it a shot and reply back
Well I've made some progress. I found a standard ICS MMS app (Mms.apk), renamed the other 2 files Messaging files to .bak and .bak1, left the Mms.apk alone, and was able to install it after a reboot. So far it works, but its a themed version.

If you're on GB then you can simply extract the AllShare.apk from a ROM that has it or go in one of lumins thing and look for the APK. IF it fails to install try pushing it and fixing permissions. It will most likely fail because it has Samsung proprietary stuff so just follow Lumins guide if nothing goes into plan.
If it doesn't work at all then I'm sorry, it might need other proprietary stuff like Swype.

Today is your lucky day...
I had to flash back to stock, and I remembered this thread, lucky you.
so... here is the apk, not sure it will work because is may have dependencies, but try it out.
apk does not say AllShare, but the icon matches the app in the drawer.
if it won't install, push it to the system\apps folder with a root file explorer.

Just curious, did it install or did you have to push it?
I was afraid that would be the case. It most likely has touchwiz and other proprietary Samsung files it depends on. Possibly even the kernel like wifi calling.

You can see in logcat when an apk won't install because it is missing something -- and it will usually say what. I've seen clear logcat indications that TW libraries are what is missing on Memo.apk, for example.

I might be completely missing a setting here but are you referring to turning off Conversation View in General Settings? If so, I already have that off in my Gmail and it still shows up as threaded in my Gmail App.
There's no need to do any pushing or renaming. Just install the apk as you would with any other and it will ask if you want to update it over the current one.
Thanks for the share. Love the new swipe action (ala webOS) and finally pinch to zoom.

[APP][CYANOGEN MOD] File Manager!!! :D

The CyanogenMod team has been making good progress towards the latest, stable version of its ROM - CyanogenMod 10 - but there's still time for more features to be added before its eventual release.
One of those features is a root-enabled file manager, which was announced on the Cyanogen Google+ page a few hours ago. Judging from the screenshots, it looks to blend in seamlessly with other CyanogenMod features and the rest of the Android OS, with a really nice looking interface. (Screenshots Below)
When you're browsing through your files, you will be able to choose between three access modes: Safe mode, Prompt User mode and Root Access mode. As you'd expect, it will allow you to view files on your internal storage device as well
you can get the apk here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?do5c710wiwcxwps
Simply copy to system/app and set permissions to rw-r--r--
Enjoy
Edit: Reread your post.never mind.

Opens up fine but everytime i open the app it searches for the sdcard for quite some time..
Also when i try to switch from Safe Mode to Root Access Mode, after granting the SU permission it goes back to safe mode instead of Root access
This is happening maybe cause its specifically modded for CM9
Edit: tried the modded apk on Numa btw, and the apk posted by the OP worked fine for me on cm10
On OTA ICS I get safe mode only. My phone is rooted. How do I switch to normal mode?
will try tq
