[REQ] The New Home and Car Dock Apps - Vibrant Themes and Apps

It looks like that Samsung has released a new version of the Samsung Car Home and Dock Home Apps that would not work after the 2.2 Upgrade. The problem, for me, is that the Google Market reads my carrier at AT&T and thus won't let me install because it is "Not Available for my Carrier."

I will not start begin a tirade into why this single requirement is a determinate for what apps I can and cannot download on my device. Anyone who uses XDA has, more or less, decided that freedom > control. If anyone can post up the APK's I would really appreciate it -- I don't know any other way to get these apps. Thanks all!

Car Home 2
Desk Home 2
Both free on the market for me, so I just uploaded them. Enjoy!

Rock. Thanks man!

@ferhanmm
Thank you sooo much - wasn't getting anywhere with finding these or the Google Car Home app (AppBrain has Google Car Home listed in it's market, but if you try to download it re-directs to the Google Market & gives a not found message).
Now off to mod a USB lead to trigger the Car Dock automatically...

I managed to download these from Samsung Apps, but the Desk Home keeps force closing when i try to select the city. Is this happening for anyone else?

I have the same problem

Yeah force close here too

To anyone who can actually get this to work: What were the changes/upgrades added from the originals?

Both work for me!
Thanks
On cm7

Any idea what makes these ones different than the originals?

None at all but these aren't on cm7 do I installed em lol.
They look same and on the car dock there's more than just 3-4 apps now its like 6

Oh ok thanks... I'll attempt to install later.

Force closes add city for me too on darkys 10.1 jvh - firmware 2.2.3

Wow, Google's Car Home is much better. This one you can't add any custom icons to the launcher AT ALL. Unfortunately neither this one nor the Google one shows up in the market for me, and I have no idea why (on T-Mobile, and they don't even show up when using an official ROM)...
Attached to this post is the Google CarHome app version 2.2.1.4. Both files need to be pushed to /system/apk to work.
If anyone, of course, has a NEWER version, that would be awesome.

FC on SGS (ICS 4.0.4 AOKP) ;(

I searched the market with my g1 and it didn't come up.
Is it possible that it will only show up in search if searched with a US varient of the Galaxy S?
hmm, not sure but it's called Desk Home and the other one is called Car Home.
I was wondering whee that was. Thanks.

Anyone notice the Car Home doesn't have the music player in the default screen? Quite a big omission I think to leave out music player for car use.

same on droid and all the others... the car home app seems to just be a skinned version of the same app on droid from when i had it. on the droid people eventually made custom car apps with music player on them.
Same with me I re-flashed my Vibrant to original following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728698
Everything seems normal except I can't play my backed up Avatar movie and cannot find some market apps such as the Samsung apps.
I see it 4th and 5th down when searching for "Samsung" on the market.
Rooted Vibrant as well.

ditto. I even asked the question in the car dock accessories thread, because i assume that these apps were on the phone but "hidden" and only activated when they were put into the samsung dock/cradle. Silly me
P.S. the Home one hurts my eyes...but i love it! this screen is sooooooo bright!
Ive recently bought the Desk Mount from a store i U.S but I can´t find the desk home app on Market.
I have tried to download the .apk from a different source but get fc when I start the app.
I´m on a International Galaxy S.
Anyone know how I´m, supposed to get the desk home app to work?
Cheers,

Music player does show up on my home screen for the car app. Also the layout is vertical not the way that is down on the picture. Maybe its different for the states and canada

I'm looking for a reason to call Wells Fargo so try me lol. Jk.
And I downloaded it. Thanks.
Working great.
I just backed up my old market with titanium backup in case this one is not working good.
But working good so far.
Thanks for update.
Really needed this PIN code security before purchases.
This new update kills my 3g data again
But works great on wifi

Anyone receiving "!" when downloading anything with the new market?
Didn't know the source of the .apk (no offense OP). So I got it from androidpolice. MD5 match on both files. I've had 2 FC using new market already tho. I like the idea of PIN code for purchase.
It's working great for me! Thanks!
Nice. Works a lot better than my other version.
Thanks.
Working great for me, love the PIN feature. Uninstalled n reinstalled a few apps to make sure everything worked. Very quick.
Sent from the Darkside of the Atrix.
Why are a handful of my apps that are clearly installed, listed under not installed... then when you click on them, they only say open; so even the market knows they're installed, just not under MY APPS???
Already tried clearing data/chace for Market... no dice. Any Thoughts??
Try Titanium Backup's market fix
Several times now I've opened up the market and it shows only 2 apps in the My Apps section...I then have to clear data for the market app and then reopen and all is fine. Anyone else having this happen? It's not a huge issue, just slightly annoying. I'm running Alien #4.
i'm getting force close on this.
Is this an official release from Google or a modified app. by a developer?
I have version 3.0.27 installed but it does not updated automatically to the new version! why?

Since Skype not on my tablet I have been forced to find other means such as ooVoo mobile which actually works, go figure. Give it try and see if it works for you.

this looks nice.. however I don't think I'll be able to convince my family to switch to this just casue only myself has a problem with Skype Video chat not working
thanks for the post!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been using this on my PC and phones for quiet long time, but its tablet version hasn't been available on market is a different story! Despite the fact that in its description (on the Market) where states that it's compatible with "Samsung Galaxy Tab series" BUT being shown "incompatible with your device" by Market!
Now, going to try this on my GT-7500 and see if it really work!
P.S.: It's working just fine on my Tab, thanks again for this one ;-)
Yeah no problem.

the only way to fully exit the app is quitting it out completely.
Well something is still running..its in my notification panel. I see its signed out but can you tell me the steps to remove it from the notification?

Would really appreciate that
Thanks in advance

I actually have the latest apk but it doesn't show up. I think it's slowly rolled out across all users independent of the apks and (as usual) I'm probably the last getting it
Do you have a possibility to scrape the GET-Request of the Google App when calling for the weather?
Edit: Nevermind, I also got it today! For anyone who wants the links - they are like that http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons.../2x/wintry_mix_rain_snow_light_color_96dp.png
I had it but I did a clean install of a new rom... and it went away :'( it was so much nicer @infiniteWays did you come up with some clever way to force enable it?
