Stock Android Email App on touchwiz ? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to have the stock android email app on my S3. I know it works much better than the touchwiz email app.
I have the app itself but dont know how to install it. When I install it, it says its already installed but cant find it anywhere. Not even in the systems apps with rootexplorer.
Any idea how to get it to work ?

Any idea anyone ?

Don't have people app?

Hi,
For some reason, I can't find the people app, instead, it is just the normal Contacts app.
I'm using the international version of SIII, standard ICS, bought from Samsung Vietnam directly.
Can't seem to find the app on google store.
Please help?
PLease help?
The "people app" is also just contacts. The touchwiz version just doesn't look much like the original ICS contacts app. But if you really want this "people app" to appear then you'd have to either port it to touchwiz or go ahead and install an AOSP/AOKP custom rom.

AoA,
I too am having the same problem. The only ROM in which I can sign google account into is a stock ROM. Download a stock rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610 and install it using ODIN... Once installed, allow Samsung to update files i.e. let Samsung Software Updater run... You will be able to sign into google etc... However if you try going back to a custom ROM, it will be the same problem... Beyond this I too am stuck!!!
So what you are saying is you unable to use your google account on both the S2 and S3? I think there might a problem with your account. Check your account settings.
Did you just enable the 2 step verification for your account?

All people living in pakistan have this issue and here is the only solution. Download "hotspot shield vpn" , install it and then start protection. It will solve all your google related issues, even you can access youtube by [sohebq]

[Q] Stock Jelly Bean SMS app instead of Samsung's ?

Hello,
I was wondering if I could replace Samsung's messaging app with Google's SMS/MMS app or just install Google's. I really prefere Google's one but for some reason I want to keep a Samsung-based ROM (not for Touchwiz launcher, but some apps like the Camera with no shutter lag, S-Memo which I use with my C-Pen,...)
Yes you can, but you need first remove the stock messaging app

How can I replace it with Google's SMS/MMS app ? Where can I download it and will it work with my Touchwiz-based ROM ?
You can pull the apk out of CM10 build.. Push it in system/app after renaming.. But keep in mind your smses will not be threaded..

Try this.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/....com.android.mms&feature=search_result#?t=W10.
I was going to use it myself but decided to stick with handcent which i've been using since GBread.
I expect you can do with this app what i done with handcent, - go into stock app - setting disable notifications, go to app manager the disable the stock message app - setup notifications on new message app and you should be good to go.
The dev also got the google calender etc too.
Hope this helps and works - let us know :good:

I extracted my MMS apk from my cm10 ROM, download it: http://db.tt/kCXioNLo
then use root explorer to copy it to system/app folder.
Then you set the right permissions (all of the first row checked and first of second row only, if in doubt check on the other apps permissions and set the same)
And the look for Semms.apk (or something like this), backup and delete it

I made a flashable cwm package for you .
It does every thing itself.
enjoy,
Thanks all ! But i've no thread in sms/mms, you have an idea ?
You will not get threaded messages in aosp messaging app.. Use the app someone posted from the market.. It is modded to be used in Stock roms

Is there really no way to have threads with the original file ? I remember when I got the Galaxy Nexus for a week, I had threads on my SMS/MMS app. With the app on Android Market I'm having issues with LightFlow and the unread count from Apex Launcher doesn't work

I'm currently on the Sprint S3, and I flashed your package. All went well, but when I tried to send a picture message, it force closed the app. When I tried to re-open the thread, it just force closes.
Btw, is there any way to get the little message icon in the lockscreen for this replacement? I miss being able to slide outward on that message icon to be presented with the latest thread.

I can't see the big differences from the old app.
Can you send photos and videos out files with it like whatsapp? I haven't found a way to do it.
Furthermore I can't add a photo to my chat profile without having to add it to Google +.
And my contacts that I have pictures of in my contact book are shown without pictures in the chat since they haven't got a picture on Google+.
So far I am a little bit disappointed with these issues and whatsapp will unfortunately still be a more preferable way for me to send messages for a while longer.

Use Titanium Backup or similar software to remove Talk-app (remember to backup) and then install Hangouts from Google Play. Worked for me!
1)Delete talk with titanium backup
2) Restart device
3) Install hangouts from google play
This only worked for me I hope it help you:good:
well
This app is incompatible with your Cellcom Samsung GT-N7100. (from pc)
from device i get: the item you were attempting to purchase could not be found
Hey Can any one tell me how to know if someone is online ? and where are the status buttons ? i mean the invisible, busy, and available buttons ??

Google Hangouts not saving settings!

Hello guys
I'm having an issue with the HTC messaging app. It keeps forgetting the contact images on the threads.
It appears there's no fix so I decided to use Hangouts. Hangouts doesn't seem to be working right either.
When ever I want to send a photo message. It prompts me with what app do I wanna use to find a media. I choose "always" on Photo or Gallery and proceed to send the photo. Then when I wanna do it again it forgot what I had set as default before and prompts me with it again.
Any way to fix that?

1. Is hangouts fully updated?
2. Are you using a custom ROM?

Yes and no. I'm using stock ROM and the app is running the latest version that's available to me via the Play Store.

Try disabling auto updates in Google Play and then downgrade to hangouts v2.4.78234730 . It seems that the new upgrade is losing settings. See productforums.google.com/d/msg/hangouts/OVWO3hrglNo/n5EB8R4s78kJ for instructions on how to downgrade Hangouts. You can ignore the stuff on dialer, probably.
I'm not sure if you are having the same issue since they are different settings but it could be related. Perhaps the new app is losing everything.
Oh hey we can actually close this. It no longer relevant.
