Hello,
I was trying to replace the touchwiz mms application with an AOSP mms. Something went wrong and of course I forgot to back up my original mms.apk. I have tried to install AOSP mms.apk's off the forum but I can not get any of them to work. I am putting them in the correct directory and the permission are rw-r-r but still whenever I click the messaging icon the phone just vibrates once and then force closes. Could someone please post preferably the AOSP mms.apk that will work on the GS4G or if not that one just the stock mms.apk that came with the GS4G. Also, any tips on how to get it to work would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks as always!
What firmware version are you running? And are you running the Odexed or DeOdexed version?
Here's stock samsung KC1 deodexed version if thats what you need.
I am running stock, rooted kd1. I should just be able to drop the.apk in the app directory, right?

I just dropped this one in and it works, thanks a ton! Now that I have mms back, does anyone know of an AOSP mms.apk that works with this build?

Have you tried to install the apks? If so what happens?

You can try pushing them to system/apps but I dont think they will run. If you want the stock apps stick with a stock ROM.
As i understand it...Stock apps are usually Odexed. Custom ROMs are De-odexed. Difference? Odex is the part loaded to the dalvik cache to help make the phone boot quicker. So the phone maker separates the APK into two files. The apk and odex. You cannot just run the file with the APK alone...you NEED the odex. A custom ROM would de-odex the files and they are combined into one. It WILL NOT run odex files. I have tried on a few ROMs on the bionic to get it to run stock apps in a custom rom if i included the odex. Still wouldn't work. If you can find someone to compile the APK and ODEX for you it may work.

Edit: plus many apps on this device like the weather clock are tied to touch wiz. You cannot use them outside of it. Even on another launcher with the stock ROM (nova [my fave], apex, go, etc)
If you want stock bloated apps use a touchwiz rom.
Good luck

I've seen this burried in several posts, but I felt it deserved its own spotlight. I flashed this with CM10 and have so far not had any errors, glitches, or crashes.

this is amazing, i have the camera/gallery and keyboard, now time to play with the rest of the new stuff.......:thumbsup:
edit: i noticed that the issue that was prevalent in the earlier versions of the camera on custom roms where you had to tap the screen first to zoom and then take a pic to prevent hanging up has been fixed, at least on TW roms

So does this work on verizon tw jelly bean leak?
also do I flash this on CWM?
Does the camera work flawlessly on.aosp jelly bean roms? By that I mean no more touching the screen first to take pictures and that nonsense

on ALL ROM's it should work. i recommend making a NAND just in case ya know... and yes flash this via CWM
camera is flawless..just takes a little getting used too
new video player included with animated thumbnails of your videos
and the rest i mentioned earlier.
If I'm using synergy tw jb should I flash this for the new gapps? Or does that rom come with it already... Sorry. Forever a noob in this world.

And also if I'm running nova prime can I un-install the Touchwiz launcher so free up space? Or would that be a bad idea.....

clear ur cache's and then flash the zip.
shouldnt hurt anything..BUT make a nand for ****s and giggles.
I'm running CleanROM 3.1 (ICS) deodexed. I cleared my cache and flashed this zip. Now I'm having issues with Chrome (error message about some critical component missing and crashes), Clock (crashes immediately), and Gallery (crashes when I try to edit a picture). I rebooted into Recovery, wiped cache, wiped Dalvik cache, and fixed permissions. Same problems persist. I'm about to do a clean reflash of my ROM and forget about those 4.2 apps.
Anyone else having the same issues?

I may be completely off-base here, but it was my impression that the 4.2 apps were for JB roms. Can anyone verify/debunk?

Aosp is flawless?
i'm on Synergy R106 release, and the new 4.2 camera and gallery work great! love the sphere and all, and came with the rom.
HOWEVER: i have tried to install on AOKP and am missing something, as i can't get more than one picture before all hell breaks loose. well, not really all hell, but the camera FC's and locks up, and then get message that i can't access the camera. dirty flashing rom over it, or restoring nand fixes everything, but would really like to get it working on AOKP or CM10.
Can someone please confirm if this works on CleanRom ULE 3.1 or CleanRom 4.0? Greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Well guys, everything works perfectly. The gallery was a little flickery at first but things have since settled in. FYI it installs the normal AOSP "Launcher" so you will have two to choose from but you can always default to the TouchWiz launcher and create shortcuts to the 4.2 apps (Camera, Gallery, Clock, Etc).
My install procedure:
1. Reboot to recovery
3. Clear Cache (not sure if this matters)
2. Nandroid Backup
3. Install Zip from link http://d-h.st/wBX
4. Fix Permissions
5. Reboot
I assume this does not work on stock non rooted 4.0.4? The reason I ask is that I read in another thread that if you put the 4.2 camera .apk in the system/apps folder than you can get it to work. I can access system/app through file expert. Is that different than system/apps on rooted devices?

Updated Mega Thread
There's a newer thread right here on XDA:
[GAPPS] [ANDROID] [4.2] + [NEXUS 4] Mega Thread!! [NOV8]
It even has themed versions of some of the 4.2 apps.
Also it was updated today (NOV8), but I dunno if that makes a difference.
I wonder if I could make an aroma installer with choices for which apps you want to install, and fixes for keeping or removing duplicate apps?
I'll give it a shot.

That is correct. The Android 4.2 apps will not work on any rom based on android version 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). You must have a JellyBean (Android 4.1 and up) based rom to use the 4.2 apps.
Another note, in oder to get the camera to work on any rom you need to copy over the appropriate libraries to /systen/lib, the two that I have found usefull are as follows:
libjni_mosaic.so
liblightcycle.so
I haven't flashed any 4.2 app zip beacue I prefer to control what is going where on my device, so I only know that this works with a manual installation.

They work on TouchWiz VRBLI5 (android version 4.1.1). Even the camera.
I'm running my own cooked version of VRBLI5 with only root, bash, nano, busybox added. And the camera works fine.

This is my personal SystemUI.apk I use on CleanROM. Figured I would share it here, Anyone is welcome to use it or icons etc in it at will.
Most of the icons came from the UOT Kitchen with the exception of the 4G icon, it came from another mod here on XDA, I combined those with some from my wifes Galaxy note and created this cool themed SystemUI apk. Updater zip provided by team nocturnal.
Works with:
CleanROM latest version
Check out the photos below.
Disclaimer: as usual im not responsible for any damage you or your phone may suffer from this flash. Tested and working on CleanROM latest version. If your use another ROM and flash this and it works fine please tell me so I can add that rom/version to the works with list.
Installation:
1. Download modifiedsystemui.zip to sdcard
2. Backup current SystemUI.apk located in system/app to sdcard in a place you can find it and on your pc
3. Reboot to TWRP recovery
4. Flash zip
5. Wipe dalvik/cache
6. Reboot enjoy
If you want to return to your previous systemui.apk simply replace your backed up systemui.apk with 7zip in the zip file deleting the modified one and flash it.

This particular one is meant for cleanrom only.
this does not work with the current clean rom. I have the current scott clean rom and this crashes the ui
Okay I know what is wrong. Not all clean roms are on jelly bean. If this is ice cream sandwich then this won't work for anyone with jelly bean. Visa versa I'll work on it tonight and help some people out if they need it. It's what I used to do anyways

Correct this is for cleanrom ICS only. If you can whip one up that will work with the jellybean base thanks!
I have almost the same icons, but I also have modified GPS, Bluetooth and headphone/headset icons. And my signals bars have been modified to show 5 bars and turn red when 2 bars or less. If anyone is interested I can post it. FYI, I have working on cr6 but can make work on pretty much any Rom.
