[Q] Is Quickoffice app free in ATT SGS2? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

I just flashed in CM7 rom to my SGS2. So I don't have the apps which were installed previously in the stock OS. I remembered that Quickoffice was there but I never opened it to see if it is freely installed for us or it is a trial version. I realized it is a paid app only when I searched for it in app market to install in my CM7! Can you guys please confirm whether the Quickoffice which came with stock OS was free or paid? Thanks in advance!

i didnt open quickoffice either but if I'm not mistaken, i believe the basic version was included for free but you cannot edit documents on it unless you paid for it. I'll let someone else confirm that, though.

good news/bad news
it appears to be the full version. just edited and saved a spreadsheet.
it's installed as a system app
i don't know if you can just go into system/app on your old rom (you did do a nandroid back up right?) and pull the apk and use that to install on the CM rom.

I did the same however the update that it says it has cost money.

Don't apply the update from market. It will make your free version into trial version. The included QuickOffic is full version already.

I had made a backup while on stock rom with titanium backup. I am on CM7 and used titanium backup to restore the app. I opened it and it asked if I wanted to update and I said no. I then went in and was able to create and save a word document. Then I went back in a was able to edit it.

can the same be done for allshare app when running CM7? my guess is it wont run on CM7? Does the HDMI out work after running CM7? If not, will it ever work?

I didn't make a backup of the app, can anyone post it up somewhere?

Titanium Pro version has a NANDROID restore APK (app+data) option. Just pull the app from the backup (com.qo.android.samsung) you should have made before flashing.
or
download "AppExtractor" from the market to restore from NANDROID also.

I tried to backup Allshare with Titanium and then restore onto GalnetMIUI 1.11.9. It would not restore, just says restoring app forever, never finishes.

I ended up downloading Skifta, I like it and works just as good as AllShare.

FYI: quickoffice pro is free on amazon today.

Noticed this, but does anyone know if Amazon version is newer or not? According to version number on Amazon it's an older version; or at least on my SG2 my version reads 4.1.20110711.67. Amazon reads 4.1.156. I bought it anyway, for free of course, but haven't installed it. Don't want to override the installed version if older.

^^ you can update it...

Can't seem to uninstall the included version. When I install the Pro version I got from Amazon there are now 2 icons. I cannot uninstall the included version.

are you rooted? You can't uninstall apps that come with the phone unless you have root access.

btw, Documents to Go is free today on amazon market

I still have the free version of Quickoffice. It tell me there is an update, but takes me to a blank page on Quickoffice.com.
Anyone else seen this? I am rooted and rum Unnamed.

Hey, best way to back up phone?

Hey everyone, latley i've been trying out different kernels and roms, however everytime i flash something new i have to re-install all my apps and what not. What is the best way to backup my phone so when i install new things i dont have to do so?
Titanium backup. Its batch backup and restore makes my life so much easier.

It has been quite a while since I used it, but as I recall, in the free version you have to manually approve each install, so it is a bit of a process. I prefer just to let Google restore all my apps and then use TiBu to selectively restore data to certain "critical" apps.
With the basic version TiBu will ask you to approve each app individually. The Pro version does it as one big batch, which is much easier. Download the free version and then pay for and download the Pro without uninstalling the free one.
the best way to back up a phone is to put it in the bed of a pick up truck. Get in. put the truck in reverse and step on the gas.

What's the best way to back up apps?

I've been using titanium backup when I flash a new rom. I usually do a full data wipe then, once the new rom is installed, i restore all of my apps and data.
The problem I'm having with titanium backup is that I have to individually install each app which is extremely time consuming.
Does anyone know of a more efficient method of backing up my apps?
BTW, I know you can make a .zip file using titanium but I wasn't able to flash it.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
I just spent a couple bucks for the Pro key, which allows for batch restoring/backups. Completely worth it when you're wiping and flashing on a daily basis.
I agree. I bought the Pro key. I think buying it through the Amazon App store will bypass any currency conversion issues, possibly. (It seems like when I bought Titanium Backup Pro, I got charged an extra dollar because of the currency conversion....I don't think I had that problem with another app in a non-local currency via Amazon.)
I am seconding what he said. The Pro key is well worth the couple of bucks or whatever it costs. You just hit the restore and let it do it's thing. No prompts.
At $5.99, this will be one of the most expensive apps I have purchased but I'll give it a try if you guys say it's worth it.

It was the second app (of two) I ever purchased (the other being The Sims for $1), and it was totally worth it. Titanium Backup is simply a great program. The batch functionality alone is worth the price- Dropbox integration is a very nice perk (along with a few other Pro features).
I astro for back ups
I bought the Pro version of Titanium Backup after my first slow and tedious backup without the batch function. Plus the automatic backups are great.
i use my backup pro
Gonna have to invest in this as well. Thanks.
Alrighty. Just purchased and backing up as I type. I'll let you guys know.
Why doesn't google market keep track of the free apps we download?
That way when we first sync with google again it would at least get all our apps installed again.

That would be cool but it would still give a prompt for every single app which takes forever and is super annoying. I bought the Pro key and installed the new Nameless rom but now I have to reroot. I'll let you guys know how it worked out
Pro key for titanium. Best app purchase ever, hands down
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Pro key was my first purchase from the market. I don't regret it in the slightest. I always do a batch backup before flashing a rom and then batch restore after. I consider it essential if you are rooted.

It does, actually, in stock Froyo and above, but for some reason the ROMs we have on the Fascinate right now don't.
Normally, when you activate your Google account on a newly flashed phone, all your apps, paid and free, will automatically download as part of your first sync. It doesn't prompt you and it's totally automatic.
I do prefer using TB, though, as Google doesn't backup app data and it can take a really long time to download every app if you have a lot of them. Also, Google's sync occasionally misses apps or downloads ones that you had uninstalled.

I wonder if I have always done something wrong then, I may be new to the fascinate rom scene but I flashed multiple roms on my og droid and they never seemed to give me more than the paid apps
in the market.
admittedly these were aosp roms not stock verizon roms maybe that had something to do with it?
I have the paid version off TB as well but when flashing from say a TW rom to an AOSP rom I prefer to download the apps from the market everything seems to run smother when I do it this way.

Agreed...titanium b/u is worth every penny...on a side note, for me going into settings-> applications-> manage applications-> running applications and going to market (or in my case since I'm on ukb...its tsm market) and hitting clear data...then when I go to the market and hit my apps it will show all of my apps both free and purchased, assuming I don't have any of them frozen because frozen apps won't get recognized by the market...it doesn't start downloading on its own but at least I have a list of complete app download history should I need an update.

never bought the key for titanium, use the free version i like it because of the prompts. Sometimes i have apps that i dont use so i dont install.

Gemini App Manager

I just found this app through Amazon called Gemini App Manager and I love it. It's like a titanium backup in a way because it can backup apps and even block them for rooted users. It has a cache cleaner, tells you all the permissions an app user uses by using symbols by each app and more. It's great so far and best of all it's free. I have no affiliation with it, I just thought I would share because I like it so much. Give it a try.
Its in the market too.

Actually, I downloaded it from the market because it wasn't working from Amazon. I probably should have put that in the OP. But thanks for pointing that out.

I can't download it. using CM7 market 3.1.3
Not available in turkiye, i tried different market enablers, clearing the market data none of them worked. But i will find a way to get the app.
It is too bad, we can't reach all apps in the market without tricks.
That's a major bummer. I will try to post the apk if I get the chance.
For some reason I can't get adb working on my laptop so I won't be able to get the apk off my phone. Maybe if someone else had they could post it. Sorry.

Apps not showing in market with CM7 that do with stock ROM.

I would like to use CM7 however when I try to download Hulu Plus from the market it's not available. It is available in the stock and UnNamed roms. I haven't tried any other device specific apps, I assume the same goes for them. Is there something I can change in the build.prop to get this to work? I would like to get regular updates for the apps as well. So I'm not looking to just use an apk off of the internet.

If you ha e a nandroid backup of your stock rom and IF you didn't use titanium backup to save all your apps and data THEN go back to your nandroid backup and restore to unamed rom, make sure you have backed up the hulu+ app with titanium. Then go back to your nandroid of CM7, open tibu, restore the hulu+ app. I don't use it but I saw someone else post that when they restored their app from tibu it worked fine. Once it is installed you SHOULD still get/have available any updates as normal.
Disregard this IF you already backed it up with tibu and just restore it.
On another note yes you can change your build prop so you can get unseen apps. I am not sure what changes you would need to make though. I used to do that on CM7 with my captivate when Netflix wouldn't show up with CM7. But that was corrected a long time ago.

I am pretty sure it will work for you. Like I said I was using the hacked Netflix app well before it was available on our captivates a d when it got updates I was able to see it and download it. Then it wouldn't work saying it wasn't supported in my device. Then I would change my build prop again and it worked fine. I have also had apps that I have sideloaded from xda and once they were available on the market or bad updates I would get the updates and use the apps with no issues. I would bet you will be fine once you have it working.

Carbon App sync and Backup

has anyone tried this on the Rezound? I have and it errors out while trying to backup either locally or online via dropbox, box, etc.
Trying to figure out if its all rezounds or maybe my custom ROM that is the culprit.

yeah, sent him logs as well but can't get it working. First beta didn't work either for me and didn't try the updates. Asked him through google+ to remove rezound from list of compatible devices since this doesn't seem to be getting fixed. Don't mind supporting devs, but its completely broken for our device, and so far no support or answers why.
Does this REALLY WORK TO NOT ROOTED MOBILES???????????
Can REALLY backup all the apps WITH THEIR SETTINGS??????
Does it try it anyone to tell us if it is work?

if phone is rooted, it can be backed up to sd card. You have to have the paid app to restore apps though. Its in the play store.
