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.

hopefully the countless posts will cease now as to where this package is at.

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

keep in mind though. you dont get all of these said goodies
i mean i dont know what all else is in 4.2 i havent done my homework...
BUT you do get :
camera, gallery ( not the video gallery ), calendar, calculator, and help.
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.

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
guys i need help, i have stock jelly bean 4.1.1 on my nexus s, and i wanted to have that black bean or inverted messaging, contacts and calendar for my phone, i tried using someone's help and i ended up restoring my phone twice, once i replaced the original one and then used twrp to flash it, but everytime it said messaging has stopped unfortunately need help regarding this please, if someone can help me get a few pointers how to replace my apps with inverted ones, hurts my eyes too since i have weak eyes
PS yes i'm rooted
Why don't you just flash blackbean or some other 4.2.2 rom that supports dark-toggled gapps and system apps? What's hindering you?

well because they're not probably as stable as the stock rom? is what i've read probably ... if it is then i'll give it a go, and i have twrp by the way, it's the easiest to work with in my opinion, can it be done using twrp? i've had bad experience with cwm
Just something I slapped together to see if I can get it working on the D800 and what features I want to incorporate into my multi-flavor CM base build I am working on. I did not take the time to compile these ROMs. Other users have compiled them and I just ported them to work on the D800. Just sharing these versions for now until official ROMs come.

Will gladly root and flash this right now, anything to help development for us forsaken T-Mobile users lol. Thanks for this.

Isn't that the gapps for 4.2.2? CM10.2 is 4.3 so you need gapps-jb-20130813 if I'm not mistaken. I'm about to flash the rom and gapps right now and report what I have.

Doing the same as this individual and will see what comes out of it.
So far so good. Was getting random FC on android.process.media while Play Store was downloading all my apps which caused Play Store to crash, but that seemed to have stopped once the Play Store itself updated to the latest version that came out recently (the one where the menu pulls out from the left side rather than via a button).
Now everything seems to be working just fine. No FCing, keyboard works. Gonna report back after a few hours once I take it through its paces for my personal use. Thank you soooo so much, I couldn't stand the stock LG ROM.
EDIT:
No default ringtones or notification sounds if that counts as a bug lol
Also just got a FC from android.process.media again on the home screen randomly.

ill wipe properly and such and try this once the stock roms downloaded on mine
i also have propper gapps so well have a detailed report
im also gonna take a look at the att source and see if i can hack up the device tree so we can start our own builds but i dont wanna be a supporting dev. no time :\ tmobile consumes my life enough as is
Working for me no fc so far but I have no gapps it would bit flash with twrp
Downloaded and flashed (using latest gapps) and the camera / gallery is having force closes. Every time that the camera is opened, I get "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped" however, when I open gallery, it works properly.
* Data connects properly
* Texts seem to come through just fine
* Google Now always says that there is a network error and to try again. EDIT: seems to have resolved itself.
* Gmail / Email seems to be working
* Browser is as fast as ever
* APN's seem to be set correctly on both epc.tmobile.com and fast.t-mobile.com (LTE)
So far, excellent start!
EDIT: I can't seem to download anything from the Play store. I can browse the play store just fine, but can't download?? Probably just my phone, but thought I'd mention it.

Thanks! I was going to buy a second device since I can not tie up my main phone flashing and what not. I am short a couple of hunderd so I will put it towards the new device fund. I use AT&T but can get a T-Mobile edition and just sim unlock it. I was going to get the T-Mobile version and unlock it but my friend had an upgrade he did not use and owed me a favor so I got the AT&T version instead.
Everything works in mine minus keyboard fc back key not mapped and random freezing that require a hard reset

THANK YOU!!!
Okay so I wanted to update to lollipop on my inspire 4g because i wanted to use hangouts dialer. Turns out, the CM 12.1 nightlies are highly unstable and sometimes take forever to boot. Most importantly, hangouts keep crashing on CM 12.1 on my inspire and I am not able to make phone calls to phone numbers or to other google users (audio/video) - no problems with using hangouts for chatting/gtalk.
So, I want to go back to 2.3.5 stock where i started. That does not support hangouts dialer, but this CM 12.1 neither - so i would like to roll back to a stable stock ROM.
The problem is, the stock ROM update (RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_Cingular_US_3.20.502.63_Radio_12.69c.60.29U_26.09.13.17_M_release_335423_signed) keeps crashing and fails to roll back.
So, I tried flashing the zip (PD98IMG_Inspire_S-ON_FactoryRestore_GB_1.07) from TWRP 2.8.6.1, but that fails too.
How do I get back to something stable and working? I already wasted at least 30 hours in past 10 days or so. :crying:
Look at our other thread
Thanks Markoll, locking the bootloader did the magic! Now I need a 4.0+ ROM to run Hangouts Dialer or need a Hangouts Dialer ZIP or APK that I can flash on 2.3.5. Any suggestions?

Sent from my ATRIX HD
i have a mixed feeling about it. 4.2.2 is cool, but it hogs more battery than 2.3.5. And the main purpose behind installing 4.0+ ROM was to enable hangouts dialer. Turns out, i am able to place a call through hangouts dialer, but the call freezes many a times and the app crashes. And I do not receive a call through hangouts at all. So, my purpose is not served. Thinking about going back to stock 2.3.5 now unless you have a better suggestion. thanks for following up!
I too went to original stock for old times sake...it is much more snappier..hehe.. But I then flashed to cm 11 as all the apps I love require 4.0+. Sigh,idk
