I recently installed a custom ROM, without thinking I would need some kind of note app. Prior to this I did try several apps from the store, none to my liking. I did however think the stock app that came with the phone worked just perfectly. Problem is I do not know the name of it, thus can not see if it is available at the store.
I don't think that Memo app you are talking about is in Google Play, since it is samsung stock app.
I liked that app too, so I extracted it from stock GB rom and copied into system app folder in custom rom.
Not sure It is gonna work on ICS or JB roms, but It works perfectly fine on custom GB roms.

Hi,
I just installed Vortex's Custom Rom but there are a couple of other apps that were on the stock version that I'd like to have, including swype. I got a copy of all the stock apps for .602 and swype is in there along with some other apps like DLNA, it has both and APK and the ODYK files. I've tried to install swype through the phone but it constantly crashes.
Can someone tell me how to install these apps back onto the custom rom?
Thanks.
You can get swype using the swype beta install... Google it

Hi guys, i just have recently downgraded my ics to gb rom rooted. I missed some of the cool built-in apps that it has on ics compare to gb. Such as Gallery, Music, sms, dialer and browser. Is it possible to extract it from ics rom and replace it with my current ones? if not, could you recommend me some apps that i could get it over with? i mean i want to save some space(ram) thats all and make it look cool.

You could always put ICS back on the device and extract the APK using ADB (install QtADB, it's easier to use). The thing is : it probably won't work. Most apps "built for ICS" depends on libraries that are simply not there in previous version of the os. I know the Music app can be installed (google it) but I'm pretty sure the dialer and sms cannot.
thank you! thats all i needed to hear
Hey guys
Current custom ROMs that are built on pure android firmware lack some important applications that are originally supported in i9003. So, I preferred to open this topic to discuss all features of i9003 that come pre installed in stock ROMs by Samsung.
So, I think these custom ROMs shall have:
1- FM Radio app.
2- SamsungApps.
3- Swype keyboard.
4- MyFiles.
5- "Write and go" and "Memo" apps.
Please mention other needed apps.
Thank you
They are removed for a reason . Most of the users dont like samsung bloatware (as its call it) . And ive personally have never used those mentioned by you. But you can use Root explorer anytime to push the apk's to system/app and use them.
Cheers !!
Yeah I know that fact
But do apps of the gingerbread version work fine on ICS? I did already extract them, but unfortunately, no ICS to test them

BTW, I do really extensively use them, especially swype, but maybe one can install swype from extracted apk.
Thanks.

Swype
I am all for Swype to be pre-installed in custom apps.
Swype is removed from most of the custom roms because of its large size that is 12 mb and it covers unnecessary space and most of the users did not want samsung apps thats why they are removed and if you want all these then use stock rom instead of custom rom and fm radio is present in most of the custom roms
12 MB is large size?? Anyways, although one can install swype beta from swype[dot]com, it is still preferred to integrate the one came with original i9003, as I think it is optimized, and is well localized, especially right to left languages. I love the "Go Keyboard" app, but still, current version has problems in T9.
Well, thank you for your assistance anyway

Hey All,
I have a Sprint SGS3, rooted. I installed the Touchwiz Jelly Bean Leak 4.1.1 per qbKing77's instructions found on Youtube.
I used his links for all files. The install went incredibly smoothly and I am loving the improvements, but there was one problem that is really starting to bug me. I lost the stock SGS3 Touchwiz email app. It was no longer installed on the phone after initial reboot with Jelly Bean. I am actually quite fond of that app, and quite unhappy with K-9 and alternatives. I want the stock app back!!
I have found a .zip with all the stock apps, including the Email app, but I receive errors trying to install it. I have seen no other users experience the same loss of this app, so I am at a loss. And don't really know what I am doing, evidently.
Can someone help me get the stock Email app back on my SGS3? And/or help me figure out why I lost it in the first place?
Thanks!
(Note: I cannot post links and cannot post in appropriate forum as I have zero posts!)

Is there any chance of getting this moved to a developer forum?

This post doesn't need to be in a Dev forum as it has absolutely nothing to do with Development. It could be better in your device's Q&A forum though. It may be that the Dev actually excluded the Stock email app from his ROM - are the rest of the Touchwiz apps in there, or is it stripped of all TouchWiz?
Hi, I would download a stock ROM for your phone. Then extract it on your computer. Inside the app folder, there should be an email.apk or something similar somewhere. From there put the .apk file in your new ROM's app folder without unzipping it, I would use winrar.
I have found the email.apk from the .zip of SGS3 stock apps I found. I get an error when trying to install it though. Any idea?

Did you move it to the system/app folder using a root browser?
The reason it won't work is because you need the Touchwiz framework in order for the app to function, which isn't going to happen because Touchwiz is owned by Samsung and not open source. Basically, if you want to use Touchwiz apps you need to be on a Touchwiz rom

As per the question I asked the OP two days ago which he didn't bother to answer :banghead:
Hi, cause I didn't want to wait for an official JB update, I recently installed "SuperXE" AOSP Rom, JB 4.2.1. It's very nice, but i really need an app that can handle office document formats, especially those of MSO. As my phone originally came with "Polaris Office", I'd like to continue using this app -- is this possible?
Just putting the apk from stock HTC ICS in /system/app doesn't do anything. It's possible to install it normally, but then it crashes when I try to launch it. Didn't have the time to check logcat for that so far, but maybe someone can tell me if this ist just impossible to do OR what I'm missing, thanks!

probably it is compatible for sense based roms if i am not wrong
Didn't expect it to require Sense, because it's a "standard" app also available for other phones. But never mind that, just read somewhere else that it isn't compatible with JB at all.
The originally included game "Teeter" won't work on JB AOSP either, but as I don't find this version in the store, I guess missing Sense could be the problem in THIS case, right? It won't even install normally (e.g. clicking on the APK in file explorer). It's a game, so, not important at all -- but it was nice
