Strange app - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I bought my daughter a straight talk s3 it was rooted and running slimi rom.. But when I got it I wiped it and flash all over.. But there is a system of Google like apps that hang around but are not the real thing. And I the extra SD card there is a folder of the slim rom I flashed and inside it is system app private camera2
Another one with pre-built something.. These folders created themselves and looking in the initd folder I see nothing strange. What is going on?

Wrong forum man, this belongs in Q&A

I, for the life of me can not figure this out! Anyone?

I see that they are Google Apps or possibly could be, have you used a root explorer type app to see them or even titanium backup?

Wanna share some screenshots or something?
I've seen camera2 before, I am not sure where. I feel like it was either cyanogenmods camera, or google camera when it first came out. Not sure though. The location seems odd though, I thought I found camera2 elsewhere.

camera
Actually it called camera 2 camera launcher. She takes screen shots and uses them to do something. I had to pick her up last night for shoplifting! I can't figure out the screen shot thing she has going on. I know she has xposedd installed.

cameraluancher
Whatever it is I can boot into recovery and wipe everything and its still there!

OK..
km can some one look at this log for me of her nexus 5?.

preinstalled apps

Anyone have a zip of the preinstalled apps from their Tabs.
By Carrier would be great (Im looking for Sprint's)
I went a little crazy when I rooted and wacked a few apps (I did save them but formatted the card without thinking) Factory restore doesn't get um back.
Hmm nobody has the apps at all?

What you're asking for is a fair bit of work. You may need to wait for more than about 5 hours.

you can do it yourself.
download a firmware (e.g. the one you use), extract the factoryfs.rfs and open it with MagicISO (simply go to file, open, select the factoryfs.rfs file and hit open), there you can select the apps from system/app
I have a UK tab which came pre-installed with NOVA HD. Since changing the firmware/updating the tab (following a few of the threads on here) I lost a few of the pre-installed apps. I got most of everything back worth anything (and a lot of the Samsung apps were just links to various websites) but I lost NOVA HD. I'm loathe to pay for it and wanted to know if there is any way to get it back? Was tempted to bluetooth the APK from a demo machine. Any suggestions or is it gonna cost me £3?
Thanks

Or you could just try being more patient and/or backup things beforehand as every set of instructions relating to flashing specify. I know perfectly well what I'm talking about, but I do my own research beforehand rather than relying on others to do it for me.

Great response, ill be doing this as soon as i get home any clue as to whether or not swype is recoverable this way? I deleted in a rush to try the beta my evo uses. I of course have no swype

Not 100% sure.
You will need swype.apk from system/app and libswype.so from system/lib
Try it
Thanks again, didn't need lib but I'm guessing that is because I didn't delete it before. I did have issues installing live wall papers though, I ann going to get the lib files and try again.

no for my install.
Really liking this one so far. The power management tools are really nice, and so are the themes, I just wish I could read Chinese - the theme manager is great, but the TapasHot app store or whatever seems to confuse me Also, whenever you update the OP, you might take out "wifi" under major bugs, since it's fixed already.
Thanks for another bad ass ROM!

Ok I followed the instructions for installing the rom and love it but, I lost all contacts on sim card. I'm guessing I might have made a mistake. Can anyone suggest a way of recovering them? By the way they were saved to sim.
You didn't save them to Google?
There's no recovery if they're wiped from you're sim .....try saving them to Google next time,you'll be glad you did.
just flashed a different rom and they are on the sim and show up but for some reason they wouldnt show up in tapasOS even when I tried to import them from sim it would say there wasnt any.Would like to use this rom.
Like I said....back them up on Google...and use this rom if that's what your hang up is...if your not gonna use this rom based solely cuz it wont read your contacts from your sim...then your comment about really wanna use this rom isn't true when there's several ways of backing up your contacts and making it happen.
That is such a BS statement if I ever heard one..."I would like to use this rom". But do nothing on your own to make it happen..
Come on people use some common sense and do something on your own without someone holding your hand.
I have been trying to remedy this on my own all day by reading and trial and error. I guess you can feel like a tough guy behind the internet.
Dyin' over here! I
To rephrase the advice given earlier (since sixstring will likely cut out all of those posts later) in whatever rom will read your contacts, back them up to your Gmail account. That way, you'll always have access to them on any rom.

I by no means was knocking the rom, I said that I probably made a mistake. All I was doing was asking a question and things got blown way out of proportion. I have read on here everyday. Again I like to experiment with things. I will never ask another simple question.
lets keep it civil here people. no name calling. no replying to name calling either. just makes matters get out of hand quickly.

Anyone know how to get Craigsnotifica

Anyone know how to get Craigsnotifica ? It was the best craigslist notification app on the market and it's gone. I just wiped my phone and flashed a new rom and on purpose didn't do a backup (wanted to start from scratch) but didn't expect this app to just not be on the market anymore.
Any ideas?

I also could really use a copy of this, as I'm in the same boat.
Once I receive it, I will share it across 2 Dropbox Accounts, Google Drive, and a Minus account.
That's four mirrors for the price of NONE!
A PM or a reply, either or.
Thanks in advance.
I discovered a funny little trick, which is the reason I've been able to keep the app: I use the market app Appbak to create a text-file backup of all my installed apps. When I go to reinstall my apps, the app uses that list to go to each app in the market, and if Craigsnotifica is on the list, it WILL show up in the market!
Of course we should all keep a copy of the apk on our sdcards/computer.
Here is the apk: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18474790/com.mufumbo.craigslist.notification.android-1.apk
has anyone noticed that in the past week the app stops displaying the content of posts? it shows the title and the footer, but the main content is missing. I sure wish someone could pickup the dev of this app, as it is, as somoene else posted, the best CL app out there.
thanks.

Does anyone have an alternative to Craigsnotifica? The other applications I've tried don't have the RSS style and multiple item tracking that I have learned to love...
is anyone else having trouble getting the body of the Craigslist ad to appear on their device? This just started happening to me recently with this app.

Yeah, i noticed that too. Not sure why, maybe something changed on CL and the app hasn't been updated in so long.
I don't know if any of you will like this one, but i've been using cPRO craigslist client droid from the market. it does notifications, but they seem to use a lot of battery. But It works pretty well for me searching and browsing.

Thanks alot. I love this app...been using it for couple of years now. The latest version doesnt show the body of ad. I wish it worked though!
Its hard to understand why the developer took this app off the market...did he stop developing it?
If so, someone should carry on the button!!!

I changed the settings and got it to show the body/text along with the pictures etc to show on each ad. Prior to that I would have to click on the peace/craigslist symbol to see the whole add and not just the pics and location.
Once I opened the app and got into the menu I seleced Preferences/Storage/Cache Ads Data (checked the box) and all new post and searches now work like it used too showing the text etc and are also available off line to review later. I am using version 3.28
I am still using it on my G2x until it just flat out does not work anymore. All the other apps I've found just don't compare and all seem like carbon copies of each other.
Now I just need to figure out how to remove the ads since I can't purchase the full app.
Very sad. I tried this and the results came up empty for everything. Every other Craigslist app is crap in comparison to this apps simplicity.
Anyone try this other app in the market yet? It seems really simple, yet has all the features like notifications and posting even. I haven't put it thru it's paces yet tho...
Search for claspics in the market..

just rooted, need help with some things...

Hi,
I just rooted last night for the first time using one of the toolkits found on XDA. Flashed AOKP JB Rom on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus. Everything is working fine aside from 2 things.
1) my camera app is missing. I checked through some posts and it said that the gallery maybe isn't enabled. From what I can tell it is. A few albums have come up after I flashed. How would I go about getting the camera app back on there?
2) my google maps app asked for me to enable location source in system settings. from what I can tell, everything is enabled and still nothing works. A few posts I keep seeing refers to this problem being on the Nook Tablet.
If anyone can help me out, that'd be great. As you can tell, I'm incredibly noobish. These are the only 2 things that don't work (as far as I can tell) and figures, its the 2 apps that I need the most since I'm in sales and I need maps to work and camera for products.
Thanks in advance.

Posting this in your devices Q&A forum would probably get better device specific answers. Also, give this new user guide a read if you get a chance.
You could just get a camera app from the play store, or search for an apk online.

Infuse 4g touch?

Here is what I am wondering.....
When I had a captivate I saw this ROM :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1093696&highlight=captivate+touch
Basically it turns the captivate into an iPod touch in a way. The dev took out the phone basically. It will play videos, music, camera works, wifi etc.
The deal is I have an old Infuse sitting in my desk drawer, my 2 year old like to steal my phone (Note 2) and open the gallery and swipe the pictures back and forth,pinch zoom, knows which one is the video player, and the music player. Well she also knows how to delete stuff apparently LOL. What I would like to do is load the infuse up with pics and princess movies and let her play with it (it has an otterbox) that way if she deletes something I won't be scrambling trying to figure it out when I need it and it's gone
I am trying to avoid her making an emergency call which (if I remember right) a cell will do without a sim card in it.
Are there any Roms out there for the Infuse that are similar, or how hard would it be to port something like this?
Thanks

Probably easiest solution is put the phone into airplane mode. Your two year old would have to get it out of that mode and then know 911, enter,etc. There was another post in the forum for a similar request...do a search, there may be other options too.

You could try but you would probably need to open the ROM and remove the phone.apk and contact.apk from there. My current ROM allows contacts to be disabled and no such option on the phone.
Cool thanks! I may play with it and see what happens. In the meantime I am going to PM the Dev and see if he would mind if I ported (or attempt to anyway LOL)

You can turn WiFi back on after you go into Airplane mode and the cellular radio will still be disabled.
I also saw this thread over at Rootzwiki that might have a solution for you. I haven't used it so try it at your own risk.
