Loading custom MMS.apk's - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Hello, this is my first post... I hope its in the right place.. haha OK so the issue I'm having is... well first is it even possible to install/use another UI's MMS.apk? For example if I want to use maybe Motorola's MMS.apk? So I have tried (through root explorer) and it wants me to install it... so I tried but it failed.. how can I get around that and make it work?
Thanks for any help!

I'm probably wrong... change permissions on old apk to 774 then install.
Make a backup! Obviously

Thanks for the quick reply! I tried that but it still failed! And I tried using the app wonder machine app on my computer and when I tried it said something like missing shared files or missing shared library or something like that...

You don't need to install it...if you push it to system/apps and make the permissions correct you need to reboot in order for it to work. But most likely it's part of motoblur so it probably won't work.

Thanks! And that probably is part of it! Is there any way to get around it?

Use titanium backup to backup and uninstall the default app. Then put the mms.apk in system>apps. Reboot. If that doesn't work the mms app you're trying to use isn't compatible. I'm currently using the inverted aosp ics mms apk on viper rom.

Thoughts on how soon we'll see this? Apparently it was announced today for Nexus S devices.

As soon as the nexus s gets it we should to. It should work on cyanogenmod. Since it uses proper api.

Hopefully the ffc camera quality isn't as crappy as the back one with CM. This sounds great though. Third party camera apps are hit or miss and the other user must have that app installed too. At least everyone has Google Talk on their phone

sweet. thanks for the link. gonna test it now. =)
In class but this should work.
Created a new folder called 'system' in c:\android-sdk\tools. Obtained the odexed framework folder and placed that in the system folder. Then created a folder called app in the system folder and placed the Google talk app and talk odex inside.
c:\android-sdk\tools\system\app
baksmali.jar -d ../framework -x talk2odex
This produced an out folder will all the decompiled .smali files etc. From there I was able to get to the Launcher.smali that i wanted, but to recompile to a classes.dex file you simply run the following command: smali.jar out
This produces an 'out.dex' that you can rename to 'classes.dex'
You would still have to push the correct libs as well. Let me know if it worked.

You can get the app to work. That's all this thread is about not installing the update.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
i thought it was a just a simple as installing the .apk. sounds like you need to manually push all files via adb?
EDIT: straight installing the .apk doesnt work. just gets application not installed. gonna try root explorer method.
Yes or root explorer most likely work

You got to get it to run with the Kernal and such I believe..
makes sense. tried both methods and it failed me. hurray for nandroid backup.
I am testing this out now.

FCing on my CM 7 (latest) release. Can see that people are online with video, and make a call - call rings at their end but Talk FCs on me.
Opens for me but then I get endless loop of it trying to connect....this was same for both deodexed app and .zip install through recovery
Try formatting the whole system installong from scratch should work.

Swype problem

So I know I have read how to fix this but noe I can't seem to be able to fix it. I am running the Weapon rom and I downloaded a black modded version of swype. I deleted the stock version and the .lib that went with it. I then installed the new version and it still asked me if I wanted to replace the other version...so I said yes. And it works...until I reboot and then I get process swype force close. Any ideas hoe to fix this? Thanks.

Use Titanium Backup to uninstall swype then install from apk.
Might fix it. Couldn't hurt to try a permission fix either.
Sent from my Nexus Prime using XDA Ultimate App
Thanks. I got it working. For some reason I thought by deleting the .apk that would uninstall it. So I used root installer and them reinstalled it. And poof...works...

Try T-Swipe Pro from the Market. It blows Swype away.

Might need Sense framework. Try pushing to system/app just in case. There is a price to using a non-Sense ROM, even for the Sense haters (and I am one). I'm stuck just to keep the Sense Camera app...
The problem is that it is a sense ROM lol

If you can't get it to work, Energy ROM has movie editor in it.
If anything pull the app from Energy ROM, put it in the place it in the trickdroid zip system/app and flash it again.
Push there, then click to install from root explorer sometimes works for me

Hi,

After pushing the apk in /system/app, you may try restarting your phone. That's what i'm always doing after i push an apk there. Works everytime.

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.

I don't remember which ones worked the best. Feel free to try them all. I remember using the zip one and it worked but I'm sure the other work also. Sorry it took so long to reply. The xda app isn't letting me access the posts I have so I have to remember which topics I've posted in.

this is the only thing missing from my new setup, any help?
this is what i am looking for.
all you have to do is drop the LatinIME.apk in your system\app folder....replace it, fix its permission then reboot...after you try to use the keyboard, it will pull up the voice keyboard...close it then do it again and you should see your blackbean keyboard....i use it with whatever ROM im running at any given time
I installed it through apps installer. It didn't work the first few times but did after. It doesn't stayb installed though. I reinstall on every reboot or so

Must be installed to system/app and permissions set to rw-r-r for it to stick on boot. Sounds like it is in data/app.

i installed and ti said this is a system app, do you want to overwrite or something like that. So i think its going to the right location.
i fixed permissions in CWM, ill have to search for a way to set permissions, that must be different.
edit: downloaded solid explorer went to fix permissions and it woudnt let me do the combo you provided.
i got rw-r--r
