I have searched the forums to no avail and was wondering if someone could either point me in the right direction or offer some assistance? I was wanting to install the vanilla mms on my phone as it is much better imho than the sense mms. How can I get it / install it?

Provided you have root, the file attached below should work. Use adb to push it;
Code:
adb remount
adb push Mms.apk /system/app
adb reboot
You could also use Astro or Root Expolorer; Put it on your sdcard, load up Astro or Root Explorer, locate the file, edit->cut, find /system/app and edit->paste/place, then reboot.
Do a nandroid backup first in case it doesn't work and remember, you do this at your own risk - I'm not responsible if your phone grows legs and leaves you or explodes.

I do like your rom and flashed it to my phone after a NAND backup and a wipe of my data / dalvik. It didn't work for me though, as I still had the sense dialer and some weird lockscreen that wasn't similar to the ss's you have in your post. Maybe I should try it again.

the only way to change the htc dialer, is by installing dialer one, that will replace it

I can get mms messages but if I try to send an mms it just sits there for hours and hours with the little envelope next to the message but it never sends. I have tried using the mms you posted here too and still can't send mms.

Tainted Vanilla is no longer being worked on. Try switching to one of Framework's ROMS.
1. CyanogenEris gives you the full AOSP that you may have looking for in TV. A bit buggy for me.
2. Evil Eris v(whatever you want. I'm using 3 but 2.0.1 is also great while 3 is being developed).
I think both have working MMS, but I can confirm that it is with EE v3.
sorry for the total n00b questions but what is AOSP? I keep seeing it everywhere

So I have seen many people asking for the original stock .apk's that they have accidentally have deleted playing with Root Explorer or for whatever reason. I have pulled the whole "/system/app/" files off of my phone, but not sure if this is all of them or if they are going to work.
I am going to be posting of few up here so please let me know if they work.
Also, if you are in need of a stock .apk, please feel free to post what one/s you need.
Also, please feel free to add any stock .apk's anyone you have as well.

Note: If you are trying to re-install these on the stock rom you need the .apk and the .odex file if it has one.

Ive been trying to install memo.apk on the Vibrant6 rom and the app never shows in drawer and when I copy over the odex file. When I reboot my phone loads up gets to the Samsung S and then everything goes black, but the bottom buttons will light up luckly I can pull the battery and reload my Nandroid backup.

I've been using Root Explorer and Su File manager with no luck.
I'm starting to feel a bit stupid here. I at first made sure the permissions of the files where the same as the files in /system/app with no luck.

I tried downloading from the first links to the apps and from yours. I have both the original Musicplayer.apk and .odex files in the /sdcard/ folder but the application does not install. I'm on ASOPish 1.1 Froyo.UVJK2.
What I'm trying to get from that app is the feature it has that it enables you to listen to the call from whatever is plugged into the 1/8 jack - in this case, earphones or my aux jack in the car, which was very handy for handsfree calling on the road.

I tried restoring my backed up MMS.APK in the sd/am folder but it doesn't install. its says "application not installed" could they be corrupt?
Any help will be appreciated. thank you.
Why would you delete the MMS.apk instead of just making ChompSMS the default messaging app and hiding the messaging icon?
Do you use Titanium Backup? If not you should start. Let me see if I can find the MMS.apk around. You probably can find it too if you searched around.
Otherwise I would just ODIN back to JFD. You know what ODIN is right?
Edit: Actually, search is disabled right now.. So I'll try later. Seriously, why did you delete MMS.apk LOL.

You can follow this guide:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...r-vibrant-and-return-to-stock-phone-pc-error/
It is very thorough. It seems like a lot but it is actually quite simple. Just read it and soak it all in. I use ODIN a lot and once you are use to it, it is as simple as a couple mouse clicks.
edit: Posted new apk from cm6.1 for the G2. Works flawlessly now.
Works on iced glacier deodexed rom. Not sure about stock rom, but I dont see why it wouldn't. Just delete the odex file as well when deleting Mms.apk

You're right. I got it working now. OP updated.
would this method work with the vanilla contacts.apk as well? I absolutely hate the sense version of contacts/dialer and I cannot wait for CM6 to be ported to the MT4G. If i could have the vanilla mms and contacts/dialer the wait would be much more bearable.

What would happen if I were to flash the gapps that Kmobs posted for CM6 over a rooted, s-off, stock ROM? I have a feeling best case nothing would work, worst case I'd get a bunch of force closes if the device were to boot at all. I've got a nandroid backup but I'm still hesitant.

You will get the Google apps. And the only way you can get the android marketplace iz if you flash the gapps because it is not on the stock cm6. I flashed it and nothing went wrong and was very happy it installed android market automatically after you set up your Google account

Gotten 3 force closes so far while typing texts to people (within the past 1.5 hour ... :/) and some buttons in settings cause force closes. doh.
Anyone know how to get back the sense mms or whatever? I forgot to make a back up (though I have one from a few weeks ago, I've just done other stuff since then). Doh!
edit: It seems that it force closes for me whenever I send a message, but the message goes through to the other person, so not too big of a deal I suppose.
Hey guys, can anyone post their Mms.apk that is stock from the sense ui? This vanilla Mms.apk is seriously screwed up. I keep getting texts from people saying that I am sending the same text like 10 times when I only sent it once. It force closes whenever I send a text and claims that it never went through. It also force closes when trying to go to settings. I forgot to make a nandroid right before doing this
Can anyone please help me out and post their stock Mms.apk? Or if I just backup my phone with Titanium and then wipe/restore it, would that fix it? I'm not quite sure what the command "rm" did from the instructions. Ah.. this is what I get for playing with fire, doh!
Am I the only one with these issues? Stock rom btw :/
EDIT: Ok I guess you can ignore the above. I uninstalled and reinstalled with the Mms.apk found in this thread (I guess I did the other thread for some reason) and it seems to work OK now. Thanks all for putting up with me!

Hi & Thanks for the look. My phone is in my signature. Basically a virgin Galaxy Nexus unlocked and rooted.
Any .zip I try to install, even as you suggested above gives me the error. Sigh! I want that inverted stuff.
I love you guys and a newb of sorts I am frustrated in all the wonderful stuff that gets posted without install details.
I cannot help but think if I am trying to install a inverted MMS, Gmail, or People .zip should I not disable or rename the current apps that I am replacing?
I experimented flashing the su.zip and it went ok. So it is not my phone.......I think?
Thanks.

If your talking about the mms.apk,
I use root explorer to navigate to the system/app folder and find the OE mms.apk and rename it to mms.apk.bak to disable it. The icon will disappear from the home screen start bar and app drawer.
I then place the new mms.apk in system/app folder and make sure its permissions are all checked off.
Then go to my app drawer and see if its there and will run. If it does I drage the icon back onto my home bar.
Some devices are finicky. Some require a reboot after a renaming then move it in there. Some require a reboot after every move. Its according to the apk and the device.

Any clean instructions on how to install this?
Does this have blurry MMS?
I remember the dialer before i upgraded to ICS had a tab at the top for contacts, i could click that and find the contact i wanted, hell i could even send a SMS from there by swyping the contact name to the side...
The new dialer for ICS has contacts listed under the menu button, meaning its one more keypress to get there. It just doesnt "flow" as well, if that makes sense.
Im wondering, has anyone else noticed this? how can i get back the old dialer? Are there any good tweaked ICS roms that have this (and other) improvements? Im sorry but search didnt come up with anything and this place is crazy (two android development sections!?!) i couldnt find anything when i searched that met what im looking for.
Im currently running XXLPQ stock
hey there, i am using resurrection remix 1.4 w/ siyahkernel3.1rc6, and the dialler app for ics has contacts at the top of the dialler if thats what your looking for? its got 3 tabs, dialler, recent calls, contacts
That's exactly what inn looking for, any chance you can post the dialer apk for me?
i will do a titanium backup and see if i can get hold of my apk
EDIT: the two files i attached, put it in sd card, titanium backup... i THINK this will work, i would to a nandroid backup just to be sure, then try restoring the apps (search for phone in titanium)
pm me if i dnt reply to this thread
No go on the titanium backup, didn't wanna show up in my list, i cleared my titanium folder so there was nothing else, put the files in, restarted, start TB, no backups found for the dialer.
Try using root explorer and finding your dialer apk and post that? I can manually replace the file
thats the thing its not called dialler lol, its called phone, and seems to be fragmented into two parts =S lol let me see if i can find someting else
EDIT: try un g zipping the file so it shows an APK file and try pushing it to the system maybe? or installing it
EDIT 2: i managed to extract these apk's from the resurrection remix rom:
contacts, contactsprovider, phone, phonesky
hope it helps
Perhaps both Phone.apk (and .odex if applicable) and Contacts.apk (and .odex if applicable)?
my bad let me find .odex
EDIT: cant find .odex but try push the above found in system (on the rom.zip)

You don't have Phone.odex and Contacts.odex? That means YOU'RE on a deodexed ROM... But IF the other guy who is requesting the files is on an odexed ROM, he will have an extra step of removing the applicable .odex files. But he may already know that. (and it's always recommended to back anything up that you may end up needing again if you remove it)

Im wondering, has anyone else noticed this? how can i get back the old dialer? Are there any good tweaked ICS roms that have this (and other) improvements? Im sorry but search didnt come up with anything and this place is crazy (two android development sections!?!) i couldnt find anything when i searched that met what im looking for.

I had that problem with "Resurrection rom 1.1" and believe me you better re-flash the ROM than s***ing with .apk-s... Didn't work for me so if you don't want to flash again you may use exDialer from the market, it's a good app, has the "swipe" functions and ICS themes, I used it for a week before switching to RR 1.4.
Ya def need one with an odex file...

No... you don't.
Back up the .apk file you intend to replace, along with their corresponding .odex file. Then REMOVE the .odex file and replace the .apk.
For example, if he gives you Phone.apk, and you have Phone.apk and Phone.odex, then COPY your original copies of Phone.apk and Phone.odex to a safe place, then delete Phone.odex, and replace your existing Phone.apk.
I've done this before, and used a deodexed Phone app on my odexed firmware.
Tried that but it didn't seem to work, after restart i lost service and couldn't dual out and had several other services complain on me, perhaps it's not comparable with my system?

If his version of Android is different than yours, then his apps probably wouldn't work for you.
Going back to read the thread, he said he is on Resurrection Remix 1.4. Looking at the thread for that ROM, it is AOKP based, with elements from CM9. What firmware are you on? You said you're on ICS, but you never mention specifically what ROM. Are you on stock? Then yeah, his apps probably won't work for you.
damn a shame it wouldnt work, try out go dialler tho if you want quick contacts access, from the dialler you just have to swipe to change to contacts... i used to use it but the themes arent as good as the ones we have lol
That would explain it I'm running LPQ stock...

I've not seen any mods for stock ICS to have this. A quick google search also turns up nothing for stock ICS.
So if you absolutely want this in ICS, you will need to flash a custom ROM.
EDIT to add: I should rephrase; you also have the option of using a third party dialer that has contacts integrated. But if you want to have the dialer that is included in the ICS ROM to have the contacts tab, you'll need to flash a custom ROM.

I would be fine with a custom rom based off one of the samsung sources but i dont frequent this side very often (usually on the asus transformer forum) to know which are good and which to avoid. Any suggestions?
