I'm running rooted stocked 2.1...5 with this mod installed. I tried to put it in the system/app folder because there is some room in there, since I removed some apps, but it did not like it. It just kept foreclosing it.
Any idea how to put it in there or even replace the original HTC_IME?
could have something to do with it being made for the nexus one

i've made one from there, and installed it. I didn't push it to /system/app.
try doing that.
also make sure you are using the low res option.

First make sure you downloaded the "lo" version, since Hero is low-res. And unpack the ZIP. It's not flashable, it's just zipped for convenience.
And then you can just install HTC_IME_lo.apk from your file manager by clicking it. There's no need to manually push it into /system/app. (It's registered differently from the default HTC_IME, so it can be installed like any normal application.) If you removed Clicker.apk while you were removing junk from /system/app, you'll need to reinstall that as well.
If you really want to replace the original HTC_IME, just rename HTC_IME_lo.apk to HTC_IME.apk and push it to /system/app. I think that's what you were trying to do before.
Hope this helps!
Oh, sorry I guess I forgot to mention that it is running fine in the user folder after installing it. It's just that I wanted to put in the system/app folder to save some space. I'll try renaming it and replacing with the stocked file. BTW, I'm typing on it now and its way better than the stocked because of how much customization you can do.
I finally tied this and it's a no go. Still get FC messages. However, all seems fine when I install it as an app. I think it's because the HTC_IME.odex file which is tied to the original. Even after rebooting it didn't work.
Anyone know how to get that odex file from the new HTC_IME I'm trying to install in the system/app folder?
So does anybody know how to edit this one? I tried changing a few things in colors.xml but it will not reinstall. Figured I did something wrong so I decompiled and compiled without doing any changes but it will not install.
Specs
APK Manager 4.8
default calendar.apk
tried with dependencies using com.htc.resources and without
tried signing and not signing.
tried the calendar.apk that came with the rom I am using.
All of these decompile/recompile without errors.
Tried with an update.zip and pushing it using adb
I have been able to edit the pictures in this apk without decompiling but it seems like apk manager is messing it up somehow.
New port. It's the LiveWallpapers.apk from Nexus S, the ORIGINAL. Very smooth and zero problems. Had to decompile and fix some lines.
Back up and Delete your original LiveWallpapers.apk Then Push to /system/app with the usual permissions. Enjoy.

Thanks for the upload! I know this is random, but where's that Music icon from? Is that the gingerbread one? If not, do you mind sharing it?

1 Problem
I did the backup
Then using root explorer copied that apk from my sdcard folder to my system/app and rebooted but it doesn't work!
I have a rooted N1 with the latest froyo build.
Update 1: I also tried to install that apk package directly from the system file and it says "Parse error" There is a problem parsing the package"??
Update 2: Also tried push via ADB but still no dice

I didn't get it to install too, I think he forgot to edit the manifest for froyo like with the microbes wallpaper.
Try this normal apk, created from the OP's port.
Oh yes, my build.prop has the sdk set to 9, thats why i didnt notice it. Adding to OP when i get to the comp. Its not intended to install like a normal apk.
New version with a lot of fixes:
manifest edited to sdk 8(2.2), cleaned a bunch of lines related to the other LWPs
deleted unnecesary files from raw and xml folders
optiPNG applied to reduce size
classes.dex cleaned
package name changed to com.android.nexuss
signed and installable. Thats all.
Can I install this without having root access?

Last version works with unrooted phones(supporting LWPs) without problems.
Thanks alot works perfect on desire.
Here's the deal...I downloaded youtube v2.4.4 from here. I opened it in 7zip and extracted the res folder so I could re-theme it. I made my changes then put the res folder back into the original apk. Now this is where the problem occurs. I can't for the life of me figure out how to re-sign the .apk! I have tried every single apk-signer out there to no avail. I have put it in apkManager then decompiled it optimized PNGs recompiled then signed then zipaligned but EVERY time I install it on my phone I get either "Application not installed." or "There is a problem parsing the package." I have uninstalled all versions already on my phone through Titanium Backup prior to installing my themed one. I have manually put it in /System/app and changed permissions and rebooted. NOTHING I do works. I have adb and java installed and in the PATH. I have tried every possible solution I have found on the internet and none work. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You!
P.S. I have an HTC Thunderbolt running the latest build (3/17/12) of ThunderStick Full Blown Sense 3.0 (Thread for this ROM here)
Here is the edited res folder - Maybe someone can look at or use it for troubleshooting.
Thanks again for any input on this problem.
go to market and search and download zipsigner2. open it and navigate to the app and then chose and output and save it as an .apk file and it should install like normal
Does any one know of an inverted Mms.apk or Gmail.apk that is not white for 4.4?
I have seen a few on here that are only flashable in recovery.
I am on Verizon with a locked BL.
Thanks!!

Mms (and Google black Dialer) could be find as described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2606281. I managed to push the attached inverted gmail to the system/app too (original renamed to Gmail2.apk.bak, renamed the inverted to Gmail2.apk, changed permissions to rw-r-r) and it worked without problems. Soon I got back to the stock app after I experienced notification "Unfortunatelly,Google services has stopped" after every reboot. Later I found out that services crashes because of ART and inverted Gmail has nothing with the issue.
Try 8sms app

I have MMS but it is color option happy. It is my own work on the stock 4.4.1_r1 MMS app. If your into doing a butt load of colors pm me. Not enough post to post a link.
I made an inverted version of the cm mms app that I use. It works perfectly with stock rom including picture and video messaging. Allows you to send messages out to the groups in your stock contact app as well.

You can install them. Just extract apk from zip file, change original apk to apk.bak, push the new one to the same folder, give it original name, change permissions to rw-r-r and reboot. I've already installed inverted mms, gmail, play and music.

Tried to follow your receipt with Keep but it does not worked. SMS works fine but it was not extracted from zip

That's true. SMS wasn't extracted from zip. But everything else were. Did you follow the instruction precisely? You must either rename the original apk files (to apk.bak) or move them to the sd card (you always have chance to get them back from there). Then you must rename the new apps as original ones were named. And copy them to the respective folders from where the original apps were taken. With explorer which could operate with system applications. Then change permissions for every new app to rw-r-r. And reboot the phone. You might be asked after to confirm your gmail login credentials and that's pretty all. You should have all black applications totally worked.
I'm attaching all inverted apps which I have actually installed. And they are the last versions available.

Are we to only rename the original apk or do we also need to rename the odex file as well? I tried this on my N7 (2012) with the Gmail app and I am getting "Unfortunately, Gmail has stopped."
IT'S WORKING. I don't know why. Since it didn't work initially I renamed the original back from apk.bak to apk and renamed the inverted one blackGmail.apk and just left it in the system/app folder. It is now working but technically it shouldn't be working. Am I correct in my thinking that it shouldn't be working?
Thank You

Gmail has probably stopped because the odex file is missing. The files I attached are deodexed and the original ones were as well. But, hey, you've got better solution - why shouldn't you give this toolkit a shot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766475. It looks like an easy way and you'll gain everything: unlock, root, custom recovery, restore option... And with custom recovery you can flash every black zip you wish from here: http://www.designrifts.com/teamblackedoutapp/recently-updated-2/, no need to seek for alternative solutions..:fingers-crossed:.

You have nothing to loose. As long as you keep original files somewhere you can always get back with just deleting modified and pushing into the system original ones.

I understand, I also managed to install mms, google music, hangouts, but failed with keep (that is most inetresting for me as I hate white stripe in widget) and google now.
By the way I found this topic with themed mms for 4.4.x - works fine for me (bubbles 2 version ). Have not tested contacts and dialer yet: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2519733
I can't seem to find Google Now Search or Play Store in the system to rename or copy the Blacked Out one to. What folder would they be in. I looked everywhere that I could think of.

Via RE you will also need to possibly wipe the dalvik file or the whole dalvik if you don't want to locate it. I did not post a link so I don't know which one you have. One had one with the odex and one didn't. If you have the single apk then you should also try to remove the odex file and reboot. Don't just click on the file in RE to install but copy it over. The flash should work via recovery. droidjunk.com/junk/Dev_MotoX_4.4_MMS.zip
