[Q] Can I use 2.1 stock messaging app on MiniCm7 pro rom? - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

I just don't like the minicm7 pro messaging app .... It is a GREAT ROM though
I don't like it because when I tap "To", it doesn't let me to choose recipient from my contact book but instead I need to type the recipient number myself and it will give some suggestion.
Is there anyway I can do this? Or I just stuck to it forever? I don't want to use messaging app from market though....
And If I can use 2.1 stock messaging app please give me the link for it because I don't have it, Thanks.

yes you can
from the STOCK ROM extract the Mms.apk file
and then use app installer to install Mms.apk (from stock) on your custom ROM
and it should install
this is what i did on my mini cm7 pro messaging app, i took the Mms.apk from Sonystyle and installed it on my mini cm7 pro v21
the Mms.apk can be found in system/app/Mms.apk
I don't like it because when I tap "To", it doesn't let me to choose recipient from my contact book but instead I need to type the recipient number myself and it will give some suggestion.

ya i have this issue aswell, its quite annoying, it be nice if the contact list can be implemented on the mini cm7 ROMs

I tried using this guy messaging app - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9296291&postcount=4
But when I try to install it using root explorer after moving it into system/app and deleted the original minicm7 mms.apk, it gives error - "Application not installed".
Any ideas why?
Edit: Right now i can't even reinstall the original minicm7 pro mms.apk.... it keep saying "Application not installed".

you can.................

to to install it from sdcard instead of inside system files, have Read Write enabled
if that doesnt work then you may need to sign the .apk file (normally you sign it if you edited the .apk)

What do you mean by "sign the apk" ?
Edit: I tried installing it from sdcard, system/app is set to r/w, but still receive this message "Application not installed".
Can please upload the apk you took from Sonystyle? Let me try that one....

try this Mms.apk I have edited this Icon ok but should still work
1st Backup Mms.apk from /system/app/Mms.apk to sdcard
Then delete Mms.apk from /system/app (using file manager e.g root explorer
then from sdcard (using app installer or root explorer) Install mms_signed.apk

Emm... Thanks
But isn't that the original MiniCm7 pro mms apk? I want to use the 2.1 stock messaging app...
Is there any way you can make this one work on MiniCm7 pro? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9296291&postcount=4

Swype v3.0 won't install

I'm running Project V(6-11-11) w/ Bali 1.6.5uv. I just got an email to update my swype. So I download swype installer, delete my version of swype using titanium backup, download new version, go to install and everthing is going great. Then it says "application not installed".
I've tried a couple of times always with the same results.
Anybody else having this problem or know what I'm doing wrong?.....thanks
Use root explorer to search for all swype related files, delete them. Then run new updater
Beware of angry gingerbread man
Do you know where the files that i should delete are located?

You should only have to delete Swype.apk in /system/app and libSwypeCore.so in /system/lib. Reboot and it should install then.
That worked jneal9, thanks. It was the libSwypeCore that was holding it up. TB deleted the apk.
Good job, as always for updates, make sure you go to the Root, as this has happened before, swype is better if not Awesome. Good new update.

[Q] Swype Issues

Did anyone else's swype just stop working? I can still type, but I cannot swype??
On comm rom 2.0
mine did says trial ended
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
Mine still working. Use root explorer to remove it and install the newer one from the swype site
Same for me. Trial ended, can't swype. On comrom 2.0
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Glad I'm not the only one.......haven't seen the "trial ended" note but it just stopped working today and I thought maybe I had inadvertanly changed a setting.
I can't seem to install the new Swype. I rm'd Swype.apk from /system/app using ConnectBot. When the installer runs, it prompts me that it's a system app. When I select install, I get a green check mark and "Application not installed."
Are there any other files that I have to delete for it to install correctly?
ComRom 1.3

Yeah there is a file or two in system/lib you gotta delete. I remember one but cannot find the other one. So Im stuck where you are too.
*edit Nevermind, you gotta reboot after you uninstall those two files [the apk and the libswypescore or whatever its called.] Then after reboot the new apk will install. Im now on the latest 3.6.84.etc whatever the version number is

I had gotten to the same point. So I copy and pasted a Swype apk from an old Rom I still have (SC 2.9.2) to my system/app to see if that would work but it didn't take. Then without removing the apk, I tried running the installer again and it took. Not sure how or why but I've got swype back.

Stock calendar in MiniCM7 Pro

Hi everybody.
I use paul-xxx 's MiniCM7 Pro - V20-Final and was wondering if it is possible to use the stock 2.1 calendar.
I cannot use android calendar because of the need to sign in in a Google account, as i don't have one and don't want to create one.
I liked the stock apk cause it is simple and just wanna see the date without having to sync with internet.
SEMCCalendar and other calendar associated applications are not working with MiniCM7 Pro...
Thanx in advance

normally what i do is if i want a app from older ROMS i save the apk of that app on to my SDcard and use App installer to install it (normally it works)
if that doesnt work i try copying the .apk file to where the other app is stored
e.g if i want messaging app, i copy it and paste it in system/app/Mms.apk using file managers like root explorer, astro file manager etc...
because theres where the Mms.apk is stored
to see change reboot your phone

Yes i understood what you said m8 and have done all those things before but nothing happens.
It seems like it's more complicated, it's like the stock SE calendar apks are not compatible with the rom.
As far as i'm concerned for the stock calendar to work in stock 2.1 rom are required 3 apks placed in system/apps:
-CalendarProvider.apk
-SemcCalendar.apk
-SemcCalendarVanillaApi.apk
I put them in system's apps, i change the permissions to rw-r--r-- and then reboot. The only thing is the calendar's icon that appears but if you press it error appears, meaning the app cannot be run.

Only the launcher and some misc apps work. Apps that don't work now won't likely work ever.
ok, thanks for the info

[Q] Trouble installing APK

Hi! I am running OMJ's 1.7 ROM on my HTC One. The only thing missing from this ROM is the voice dialer from Cyanogenmod, which, for me, is the best voice dialer on Android. I've extracted the .APK from a CWM backup, but when I try to install it using a file manager I get the message "There was a problem parsing the package" Does anyone know of a way that I can get this to install? Thanks.

Did you check install from unknown sources in settings?
May be the file is just corrupted?

The file might not be corrupted its just not compatible with the present android version.
Please make a backup of your current ROM and try the following.
try pushing the apk to system/app via root explorer and then set permission rw-r--r-- and restart your phone. see if the icon appears in app drawer.

Hello Try placing the .apk directly in to the "System/apps/" file in the internal storage. You can do that by using "root" file managers such as Root Explorer. Thank you for consulting the forums, and please click the "Thanks" button if I helped
