I have searched high, and low for this apk and I keep coming up empty handed. I know the widget is available via a custom Rom, but I rather not take that route just yet.
Is this apk out there?
I tried to take the notepad/task widget from Fresh RoM and install it on a couple roms with ES FIle and it wouldn't work so not sure if you even can do it that way.
Interested in finding out a way to get some of these widgets myself.
I was told if I can't get the apk in this forum, I can't be done lol. My fingers are crossed...
Still searching...
Just meant a few fellow Evo owner's that are also interested in the apk. I guess Im not alone

If you see it in a custom rom, then download the rom, rename it to a zip file, and just take the apk for the widget right out of there and install it to your phone.

Ah, that does make sense, and this is the 1st time I ever heard of the idea. I will try it out.
Thanks

I found the apk, and I transfered it to my SD card. I found it via Astro, but I get !Application not install message when I hit the install button.
Now Im lost...
Did you get the apk from the system/app or data/app folder? If it's the system/app folder, you're going to need to adb push it to the system/app/ folder using adb rather than package install it.

... what are you afraid of? You're phone's rooted, no?
If so, it's legit just typing three command strings to move the file, and you're set... literally seconds.

I'm not familiar with unrevoked, and what permissions it gives you, but, are you experienced with adb at all? Do you have SDK tools installed?
unrevoked3 is a partial root. I would have to go with simpleroot to do what you speak of.
I need to take some time and sit down for a full root. Right now I'm riding around, and time is not my friend.

Its a pretty cool widget that gives you one good deed for the day. It could be hug a friend, or hold a door open for someone.
The file name:
htc.rosiewidgets.daychallenge.apk

Well, I went a step further, and installed Fresh Evo 1.0.1 rooted via unrevoked3, and Rom manager.

I would like to, but I don't have more files.
Prada phone users don't have root permission yet, so don't know how to copy system files.

Well, just get an idea, let's repair the phone using LG repair app (I don't know what is it ) it will download file so if anyone can get system files in those files.
My screenshots today.
Hey guys,
I think I accidentally deleted the people system APK?! I can no longer save contacts. Wondering what the best way to fix this issue would be without flashing back to stock rom. I am currently rooted and running stock 4.4.2 KK, but I have made a lot of MODS and am running the Galaxy Gear Manager for my watch which is a huge process to get running that I don't want to have to repeat.
Any help is mucho appreciated!!!
If you can find the apk somewhere install that. Otherwise flash the system.img from the factory image.

No, it'll reinstall all the system files. If you modified any of them you'll lose that but I doubt you modified any. This will only work if your bootloader is unlocked. If it isn't then you'll lose everything unlocking it.

Have super su on your internal sd card so you can flash it in your recovery. You'll lose root.

Do you still need help with this? It's not that difficult to just pull the app and move it into the right system folder. Once you do that, change permissions to match the other apps, and reboot, you should be back to normal. I'll post the apk if you need it.

The APK would be amazing! I haven't been able to find it, I got the System.img that I was going to flash after work, but the APK would be a lot easier! Thanks!!
Hi,
It's Contact.apk you would need?

No problem. I'll have it uploaded in a bit. It's just the People / Contacts apk, right? And you're odexed or deodexed?

You can pretty much just download any ROM available, extract the Contacts.apk file (I think its in system/priv-app/) and put it on your device.

Yes, the People/contacts apk, and I am still stock, just rooted and have an unlocked bootloader, so odexed, I believe.

I tried that with one of the apk's I found, but I couldn't get it to work. I may have gotten a corrupt file though.
Here's a flashable zip in attachment (wipe Dalvik cache just in case) for Contacts.apk (with the .odex file)...
You still have ContactsProvider.apk?

He might not be in a situation where he can download a large file like a complete rom. He did mention being at work. Anyway, these should work:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9903887/Apps/Contacts.apk
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9903887/Apps/Contacts.odex
If you are deodexed, let me know, and don't use just the apk ^ there or it will force close constantly.
Just use a file manager that has root access (ES File Manager is a good, free choice, if you don't have another) and move the app and odex file to:
/system/priv-app
Make sure to change the permissions. The 3 Read options should be checked and the first Write option. If you aren't sure, just read the permissions of another app in that folder and match it. Then just reboot and should be back to normal.

Awesome!, thanks. The only thing I see in my app/system directory that pertains to contacts is the "GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk" I will be attempting to get this fixed when I get home in a couple hours.

Since we now have root for the verizon s6, is it possible to get the stock browser and smart manager?
In theory. I was wondering the same thing but I've been working all day so I haven't had time to try

Just tried this, the app is in the drawer but when I open it just closes.

And you correctly changed the permissions in the /system/app folder?
Yes
Check your permissions. I did it and it worked for me. Remember that the folders have different permissions than the files.
Did u move it to the priv app folder or the app folder?
Confirmed that when ALL permissions are set properly it works great! The app and the folders have different permissions like the other guy said

Just the /System/App folder. Use Root Explorer to do the permission settings. Just match what other random folders/apps permissions look like in the /System/App folder.
Thanks I got it working!!!
**edit**
Got it!
I've created a tutorial here.
I copied to /system/app, changed the permissions of the SBrowser folder, the apk, the lib folder, and each of the files inside the lib folder, but then I get this when I try to install the apk. What am I doing wrong?
Edit: I must have missed the previous post. Got it working now. Thanks!
Anyone have step by step instructions on how to get smart manager working? I followed the s4 thread, but it is not working for me.
I got the FingerPrint AutoComplete working, check out my thread over at XDA Thread Link.
-not very hopeful for this-
any chance, now that people have the stock browser with root, to get it working without root?
I really don't want to root my phone just yet...

Thought i'd put this on it's own thread so it doesn't get lost in the sea of comments where i put it originally. Mods, if this belongs somewhere else please move.
For anyone wanting to change their emoji and not sure if you want to use that switcher app, its very simple. Install ES file explorer (i can't imagine most of you don't already have it) and go to system/fonts and locate "NoToColorEmojii.ttf" and rename it to your liking (i just renamed it with NoToColorEmojii_OLD.ttf). Then download a replacement TTF emoji file, i used this one :
http://www.mediafire.com/file/oe85f3h5mj0731k/NotoColorEmoji.ttf
NEW WORKING LINK POSTED
download it and put it in the same folder the old one is in, reboot your phone, and viola, you're good to go.
Hope this helps!

Im rooted and still cant edit system files. I re-ran the recowvery script, and when i got to TWRP, I swiped to allow changes to the system partition. Then flashed no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip then flashed SuperSu.
I am certain about root priviliges. SuperSU prompts me when root is required, and I am using a custom rom.
I used a script in the app RomManager to mount system RW to no avail.
I am using ES File Manager. I dont understand this, so any help is appreciated. Thanks

I'm not a noob by any stretch but I'm feeling like one again with this LG stuff so just to clarify this is basically just a guess, but if you're positive you have root access then it sounds like the problem could be with the file explorer you're using. I don't use es file explorer myself so if it is the problem I couldn't tell you why, but I use solid explorer and I haven't had any issues with modifying system files. Anyway just thought I'd throw it out there in case you haven't already tried with a different file explorer. Hope it helps

That's good advice. My first thought exactly. I think the real problem was i had assumed the rom came with Busybox already installed. I installed Busybox when scripts for read/write access wouldnt run in apps that required it. Now things work perfectly.

It's funny because I had a similar problem when I first installed Adaway because it would download the updated host but it kept failing to install, and then it finally dawned on me when I was doing something else that required busybox that it wasn't already installed because for some reason I also had just assumed it was. Anyway I'm glad to hear you got it figured out ?

Okay. I can change the file of the original .tff to *_OLD.tff but cant copy and paste the new one to the /system/fonts directory because its a "read only directory". Yet ES File Explorer says Readable and Writable.
Any ideas i can try?
