uninstall stock version - reboot then install modded version and all should work ( sometimes maybe you will need to clean google store cache)

or if you have 3.4 version previously go to phone - applications -> play store uninstall updates ,, rebot then install modded version - just like in any other vendor.apk updates

[NO ROOT]Stock Gingerbread apps installed

I have recently installed the Android SDK and found that i could pull system apps form emulators! i used this to get all android apps that i thought would be cool to have and these are the ones i could get to work with no root.
Calculator
DevTools (Development)
Spare Parts
DeskClock
Email
Custom Locale
Music
Terminal Emulator(Can be found in DevTools)
The apps that I tried that DON'T work are:
Launcher
Browser
I don't know if Gallery works or not... i haven't had the chance to try.
EDIT: sorry for cutting off... accidentally hit submit then internet went out :/
EDIT: added more apps that work and linked Gallery for you guys to try out.

If your using the XDA app, click dpwnload then use a file manager and go to mnt/sdcard/xda-downloads then click the one you want to install.
If not, click the link then use a file manager to go to mnt/sdcard/downloads and click the one you want to install.

Playstore update . 3.9.16

Hi all heres the latest google playstore
3.9.16
Download: http://beta.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390135922294521859
Google just started rolling out an updated Google Play Store version 3.9.16 that follows the previous version 3.8.17 from August. Good news, everyone - we've already got our hands on the APK for you to install manually thanks to our loyal tipsters.
What's New
The most notable and immediately apparent new feature is the long overdue ability to remove apps you've previously downloaded from the All Apps list. If you like to try a lot of apps, that list is likely very cluttered. With the new Google Play, you can trim it to your heart's content.
Update #1: You can multi-select by long-pressing any app in the list and then tapping more apps, then delete them all in one go (added 2 new screenshots demonstrating it).
Update #2: The new Play Store now keeps track of your location in lists, including My Apps and All Apps, so when you click into an app and back, it drops you into the same spot. I had variable luck with this, and it didn't seem to work in All Apps at first, but I just reproduced it on both the EVO LTE and the Nexus 7. Brilliant.
Update #3: The notification icon that shows up when you have app updates has changed, and notifications are now expandable. I've added more screenshots showing the differences.
The size of the Play Store APK actually went down, so Google must have trimmed some extra fat. We're still digging through everything
Thanks androidpolice

Finally! I wonder though.. will it decrease app download amounts? Obviously if people remove it, it wasn't something they liked..

Saw this on AP and downloaded the apk. Installed it on both my Sensation and N7 and works fine. I can trim down my old files! Yay!

What happens if you have the same Google account on 2 devices and have an app on 1 but not the other and you remove the app from the device that doesn't have the app installed?
What happens if you delete a purchased app? Do you have to pay for it again if you want to re-install it later?

working perfect..

Can't answer the first one, but I just uninstalled a paid app to test for you. When I searched afterwards, it shows up as a purchased app, so I think you'll be good on that front.

I'm on paranoid android 2.2 rom on my Nexus 7, I have gapps ending in "26" installed, which I believe are the gapps from August, and installing this gives me an error message "conflicting signatures".....I don't even have the play store under "downloaded" apps like you would normally find it, but it is under the "all" tab. It was suggested that I rename the apk to "phonesky" and copy it to system/apps, I don't even see "phonesky" anywhere in the files, it's not on my Nexus 7. Can someone please help me out of the know what I can do to get this installed? It's so baffling that a simple apk won't install.
I would appreciate any help at all. Thank You.

[MOD] ALL APPS in multiwindow

HI, here is the mod to have all apps in multiwindow bar!
Based on N9005 with Omega v.1 and working good. Need testing for other versions...
Just replace Service.jar in /system/framework and FlashbarService.apk in /system/app. Save the original ones just in case!
Reboot and enjoy!
Note: there is a little bug when adding some apps it's another that be added in bar but not a big problem.

I can't make it work. On my stock firmware. I try to replace both of the files. But the multi window option not appear. And also it make my pen-window broken. I can't create any pen window anymore.
Thanks

Yes you need to be deodexed...

I'm currently using this app from the play store with success:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bjbinc.mwmphone
It'll walk you through installing the xposed framework when you first open it, then you can use the app to modify available applications (reboot needed after).

Works perfect. And it also allows you to use xposed settings so you can change the dpi of apps and ui. Great find. Stock rooted no deodex and enjoying all the perks.

Are you using the file on the link provided or using it from the sys dump? You need to change your keyboard in settings.
Sent from my XT1058 using XDA Free mobile app

You can't install the keyboard if your not rooted. The reason you are getting the message that you have an app with the same signature is the google keyboard installed in the system. Since your not rooted you can't delete any system app. Yes you can delete it but not really once you reboot it will be back because write protection is enabled.

I love it! Looks a little cleaner, imo. After my wife's GS3 got the KitKat update, her vibrate on touch feature was broken on the default keyboard. Installed this on her phone and that "fixed" it.

This is the Play Store link for the app referenced in the article in the OP: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.shenye.android.inputmethod.latin
Remember that you have to go into keyboard settings and select this keyboard for the input, and you have to go in to advanced settings to change it to Material Design. I'm assuming you just tried side-loading the .apk, which will not work for non-rooted phones. I know the linked keyboard works because I installed it on my wife's Moto X.
Good luck.

Sad news for the people who weren't able to get he android L keyboard because google pulled it from the playstore.
