Stock Camera/ Gallery ( Help Please) - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
With the help of various tutorials in the XDA forum I have successfully ported MIUI V5 with root access for my device :good:. But I want to retain the stock camera and gallery application. The stock camera is somehow embedded in the gallery apk(there is no separate apk for camera). When I try to install gallery.apk in the ported rom it doesn't get installed.
I tried flashing the stock gallery.apk directly too(by putting in the system/app folder and then flashing the rom) but it didn't work. I have also tried replacing libcam*.so files from system/lib, but it didn't help either.
Appreciate your help in this regard. My device is a Mediatek 6589T(Karbonn Titanium X)

[Q] Transferring stock apps

Summary: How can I transfer apps from the stock rom (that are stored as.apk and .odex pairs) to my current rom?
Full Story: The stock rom (Gingerbread) for the Samsung YP-G70 has a working fm radio app that I'd like to use with my current rom (CM 10.2). I saved the .apk and .odex files from a stock install to my sd card.
Is this even possible?
If anybody's managed to do it, what're the steps? (the default apps are stored as .apk with a .odex file and xultimate can't seem to handle the files (get "top level error" about missing files and such))

Already tried that. All the results I'm seeing involve a third party app backup tool (which I've already tried without success), or don't address the mixed apk & odex issue.

[Q] CM Messaging .apk? [SOLVED]

Does anyone have a standaole Cyanogenmod Messaging apk I can push to /system/app or install on another ROM? I looked in the latest nightly zip, and did not find an Mms.apk. I also flashed the ROM just to make sure it was there, and yes it was. I also looked inside the /system/app folder on my phone after it installed, and I did not see an Mms.apk. Where is it stored?
Found it!
It's located in system/priv-app. No idea when/why it moved there. Also, if you flash the Paranoid Android GAPPS package (first one with everything), it automatically removes the AOSP/CM Mms.apk included. Hope this helps! Going to write a small tutorial as to how to avoid this problem in the future.

Porting these to a new phone is hard so take the android version you have and look for other samsung roms of the same version with the memo apk then install that apk and restore the data. A more experienced dev could tell you exactly what to do.

Can only know if you try.
The depenencies on these apks are on the touchwiz framework and stuff like that.
As long as the rom you take it from is a touchwiz samsung rom of the same version of android and the rom you put it on has the touchwiz framework then your fine but try it first.
If all else fails then you could be hacker and decompress the titanium backup zip file for your memo data and use an sqlite editor from the play store to see if you can read the memos that you left.
Or after that you could load the original rom up again and restore it on that or restore it on another of the same rom.(Another phone maybe)

i hope that the different framework between two roms is the problem...
for now i extract the db from titanium backup and reimport to colornote (from google play).

[Q] Add Stock ServiceMenu.apk (*#*# 7378423#*#*) to CM?

Hi Guys,
I was wondering if anyone had figured how to bring Sony's stock ServiceMenu.apk to work in CM or other custom ROMs that don't have it?
ServiceMenu (*#*# 7378423#*#* from dialer on stock ROM) is very handy for battery test, GPS test, Compass test and calibration, all the Sony device-specific hardware tests.
I tried to make a recovery-flashable zip by extracting ServiceMenu.apk from stock ROM but it doesn't install. I did more searching to find it also depends on files in /system/etc/permissions and /system/framework so I also added those to the zip, but still fails to install.
Can anyone with better experience chime in? I think a flashable Sony ServiceMenu.apk zip would be useful for every custom ROM on Sony devices.
So far I'll attach my zip which puts all the files where they should be, but App does not install. Signing problem? Odex problem? Please any ideas

[Q] Dual SIM dialer problem

Hi friends,
I'm looking for a Dialer App that would allow me to assign a SIM Card to each contact.
I believe that it's present in the stock ROMs.
Am I missing a setting?
Currently on Bliss ROM.
i saw this on Stock, i am unaware of the Rom which you are using
I'm using Bliss ROM. But it's not only in Bliss, I've tried other ROMs and never found this option.
Is it possible to install or flash the stock Dialer from MM Stock ROM? If it is, how can I do it?
Well, I'm trying to put the stock MM dialer on Bliss ROM.
So far, I managed to:
1 - download stock MM.
2 - Extract system.img.
3 - Extract Dialer folder from priv-apps.
Inside de dialer folder I found a dialer apk and, in a sub-folder, i found an .odex file.
Tried to copy dialer folder to system of moto g and matched the permissions to original dialer, but didn't work.
Perhaps it's becaude the odex file, I believe that it must be deodexed.
Can anybody cast some light on this subject, I'm a little (or maybe a lot) lost here?
Thanks
