[Q] install stock memo apk on custom rom - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all
I have a GS2 had stock operator ROM (Cellcom Israel 4.0.3)
backed up free titanium
installed pilotx JB rom and dual boot thin touchwiz JB
wanted to restore the stock memo app onto PilotX
titanium freezes when doing so
when I find the apk file, and click it tells me not installed
have tried to put the apk (including a deodexed version i found somewhere on XDA) into system/app (and data/app)
and reboot - all to no avail.
note that on my dual boot to thin touchwiz JB i CAN restore the memo app from titanium.
is this because this rom includes TW 5 - I think I read somewhere stock samsung apps require TW (??)
So is there a way to get the stock memo app onto pilot X?
is there a way to find a TW5 apk to put onto pilotX in hopes that after that I could restore the memo app?
(yes I have tried numerous memo apps from market, don't know why but I like stock samsung one best!)
thanks in advance for advice!

you can only use those original samsung softwares on touchwiz based ROMs (meaning in fact custom roms based on stocks = "sammy roms")
so it's not possible to use them on aosp or aokp based roms if the touchwiz framework is not incorporated...and normally it's not because exactly the usage of easy theming and independence from samsung is the source of those roms.
So i don't know what pilotX rom is based on, but if not based on sammy it will probably not work

[Q] Install Stock ICS gapps on Samsung ROM (XXLPJ))

Hi,
I have put the latest ICS leak on my SGS2 which funny enough I find better and more stable than the official XXLPQ.
The only things I miss are the stock ICS apps such as the ICS calendar, stock Email for Exchange, stock dialer/people apps etc ... but I also kind of like Touchwizz launcher and would like to keep it.
I have downloaded the latest gapps but is it safe to flash these over a Samsung ROM and would it bring the stock ICS apps that I am after?
I have searched on the forum and found few threads about stock apps but not really what I am after.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Anyone can help for this?
I am trying to get the Email app from the CM9 ROM installed onto my LP3 stock Samsung ICS.
I have tried to copy Email.apk and Exchange.apk to /system/app but that doesn't work, the app is not visible under settings/applications...
I would love to get the stock ICS apps (sms, contacts, email, agenda) on the Samsung ROM (LP3) which I find very stable

TwLauncher 4 (ICS Stock for SGS2)

I've recently installed ICS 4.0.3 on my galaxy s2 (The official rom) and after rooting and deleting some stock apps the original Touch Wiz stopped working so i looked everywhere for the stock TW apk (unmodified-the one that comes with the original rom) and i had no luck finding it.
If anyone could give me a link to the apk i would truly appreciate it
Cheers
better flash again i don think ppl will keep tw4 apk wiv them...i don think it alone will work too...

Need Samsung Stock Apps (S Voice, S Suggest and so on)

Hello guys,
I got Omega v4.0 flashed on my S3 but i realized that they excluded all the stock samsung apps. Is there a mirror to download and flash them afterwards?
Thx!
Omega v4 is based on AOKP so you will not be able to make samsung apps work on this rom
Thx! sry i am new to android, used an iphone before slowly things come clear to me though

Correct me if I am wrong @Mopral, but isn't Omega V4 Sammy based? This is for the fact that many are saying MHL adaptors work on that ROM(MHL adaptors only work on Sammy based ROMS). As for @StoneOven, IF you decide to jump on a Sammy based ROM(e.g Romow N4), you may try these at your own expense.....http://www.mobilegeek.it/2012/11/rom...lly-bean-dlib/
******** Please do more research on this as I am unsure what ROM you will be using/whether it will work at all. Go to the link given and scroll down to "DOWNLOAD" section, there you will see Samsung APP Part1 and Samsung APP Part2. I am unsure of which apps/widgets is in which parts so I guess you have to try it yourself. I take reference from my current ROM (ROMOW N4 Jelly Bean 4.1.1) which is my current daily driver.******
Here are the instructions to install the Samsung Apps as found on the same page in the link given :
If you want to install some AppSamsung and all you have to do it this way:
-Download the zip file of the app Samsung
-Installed on your PC WinRAR or 7-zip
-Open the zip file with one of these programs (Warning, do not unpack, ONLY OPEN)
-Once you open the zip yourself in the folder "app" (system / app)
-Delete applications you do not want to install
-Once done close the zip (Just click on the X of the window)
-Upload the zip on your GS3
-Flash it via recovery
-Enjoy!
Nice, didn't know about Sammy based ROM's
Awesome

There is 2 Omega rom:
-v4 based on AOKP
-v31 based on Sammy JB
S Voice and S Suggest,etc are all crap to be honest, it's all about Google Now right now, that awful S Voice was so bad whereas the Google now voice assist is far better, most questions ive asked have been answered pretty good, Google just need to realise that not everyone speaks English in a plain American or English accent and tweak it to understand Englisah spoken in other accents

[SOLVED] Installing the stock camera on a custom ROM - Help

Hi all. I honestly can't find an answer or any solution that has worked for me for this. I am trying to install the Samsung stock camera application onto my CyanogenMod ROM (4.2.2) but so far attempts to install manually or restore via Titanium Backup have not worked. I tried the modded Camera apks however they do not install and moving the apks manually to the system app folder still doesn't work. Has anyone got a solution to this? I really don't like the Cyanogen/AOSP camera app as it's quality is worse than the stock one.
Samsung "stock" apps require the touchwiz framework in order to function......this is something that is NOT and NEVER WILL BE included in CM ROMs.......
What you're asking just ain't ever gonna happen/work.......
Sent from my Markox powered KitKatted S2
Ah okay that explains it. Looks like I'm going back to Chameleon ROM then.
I think that's your only option....that or one of the other hybrid ROMs.....
The only downside to that being that as they are Sammy based, you're never going to get a KitKat hybrid.......
Sent from my Markox powered KitKatted S2
Yeah, but it's a downside I'm willing to put up with - just so my camera is the stock one (I like it since the images come out better). If I could find another hybrid ROM like Chameleon, except on Android 4.2.2 (like the last stock ROM) that would be great.
4.1.2 was the last stock update that the S2 had.....

Searching for a lightweight Custom ROM

Hi,
I have currently a rooted Android 7.0 Samsung Galxy S6 Edge and I would like to get rid of bloatware, but I'm not an experienced user regarding Android and installed apks (i.e. what apk has what function). I know how to delete the system apks but there are so much apks I might or might not delete so a lightweight ROM would be nice.
Unfortunately all famous ROMs don't support S6...I'm not sure if it's deciding.
Can someone suggest a lightweight rom, preferably for Android 7. Don't have to be an official ROM...a stock rom with rid of blotware would be ok too
Thanks in advance
i use all custom rom but the perfect rom is
