[Q] System/App APK's - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I'm looking for the Samsugn Galaxy S system/app APK files.
I recently changed the ROM and Firmeware on my phone but I cannot restore a few stock apps that were on the phone previously.
Also, does anyone have the original Samsung Galaxy S /system/media/bootsamsung.qmg and /system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg files?

Take a look in the perka's file repository or in the Doc rom kitchen (generate a updade.zip with the missing apk)

Thanks. I found them in the Doc Rom kitchen.
I've recently installed a base rom from the bas rom tab the other day.
What do I use to install the zip obtained from the app tab?
Will I have to install and setup everything again?

Just had a great chat with the guys at Doc Rom Kitchen in their IRC channel http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=romkitchen#
That online app is the best and they are a great bunch of guys
I'm totally hooked now.

Reinstalling system apps to a custom rom?

Hi all currently running webstars ultimate rom 3.0 after switching from Doc's BUJP8 v9.0.1.
Loving the new rom for speed and appearance.
However really missing the samsun mobile tracker. It is the only samsung app that I miss but it has come in handy in the past and I would love to have it again if I ever need it.
Can someone please explain how to reinstall this system app. Have tried extracting the mobiletrackerenginetwo.apk and the mobiletrackerUI.apk from /system/apps from docs rom and tried to copy these to the /system/apps and change permissions using root explorer but nothing. Probably doing something stupis wrong or am I missing any additional apks?
Any help much appreciated!!
Anyone have any ideas?

RtL languages (Arabic) for 2.1-2.2-2.3 cm7

Hi everybody ..
Arabic users always want to use wonderful Roms like CM7 and other Roms but they stop with no Arabic support ..
her the solution
thanks to madmack
http://blog.devasque.com/?page_id=11
I try it .. and it was perfect i use it with cm7 and iceandfire ..
it was work perfect.. just apply patch to framework.jar .. and use libwebcore.so all will found in zip file there
for those can't open link .. steps of arabic shaping
framework.jar takes care of shaping texts in android on all texts except Gmail and the browser.
Note: Please perform a nandroid backup of your system before attempting to use this patch.
Requirements:
Your device needs to be rooted.
Your Android version is 2.1 or newer
Your ROM needs to be deodexed. To find out if your installed ROM is deodexed, navigate to /system/framework on your phone. If you see a file called framework.odex then this patch will NOT work for you.
Steps to apply the patch:
1. Download the patch below and extract it to a folder on your computer.
2. Pull /system/framework/framework.jar from your phone and place it in the subfolder framework that you extracted in step 1
3. Double click on commands.exe. Do not close the black cmd screens that will pop up. Once the patch is done, you should get a patched framework.jar in the subfolder generated
Verify that the generated framework.jar is bigger than the original framework.jar that you pulled from your device. It should be about 1MB larger.
4. In subfolder generated: Place the generated framework.jar in your phone in /system/framework and reboot
I’ve also included the Aljazeera fonts in fonts. You can place these in /system/fonts and reboot
Sometimes permissions and xml data doesn’t get updated correctly resulting in corrupted data entries. If you receive a bunch of Force Closes after a reboot, you’ll need to Factory Reset.
Note: This will not shape the letters in Gmail and the Browser correctly. If you want this, you’ll need to get the appropriate libwebcore.so for your system. Each Android device and ROM will need a separate one, therefore I’m not including one in this post to avoid confusion.

CM7 is GB AOSP with Moto Froyo kernel.
IF you want to upgrade to CM7 procedure would be as follows.
Flash GOT 2.2.1 sbf
Apply CM7
Apply your Arabic patch.
thnx alot sileshn ,,
do u recommend the CM7? or an earlier Rom? the CM6?
Can't we just copy-paste your Framework.jar file using root explorer, like with libwebcore.so?
Thank u very much

Yes there is, it's installed in every stock rom and if you don't have it because you used a custom rom you can get it installed by installing touchwiz 3.0 from madteam.
http://www.madteam.co/forum/development/(port)-touchwiz-3-0-for-'cyanogenmod7'-port/
It contains a lot more than just AllShare so if you don't want the rest, just delete the apk's in app within the zip before you install it.
Just read the thread in that forum and you'll understand how that works.
thanks for answer

You can just choose the launcher on first reboot.
BTW, the launcher and other things in the zip are removable, just open it with your favourite archive program and remove what you don't want.
Glad i could help though.

[Q] Help me - Replace Calendar apk

I installed the new CM7 rom + Gapps.
Everything worked fine but the CM's calculator & calendar are far from what i was used on my stock 2.3.5 GB rom.
I've asked this same question on CM forum but no one replied so i'll try to ask here.
How can i replace my calculator with my old one?
I've successfully extracted the calculator apk from my old rom and have it on my sdcard ready to be installed.
But for some reason i cant get it to install and i even tried to put it on system/apps dir replacing the old one without success.
i know this is possible because i saw someone porting the same calculator to a nexus phone
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1522009)
with the apk from that post i could run and install the calculator but the resolution would not fit my screen
any help?
thank you very much, mornaistar

the calendar.apk that you got from old rom, put it in /system/app, now change its permissions using root explorer as follows
Read permission to all i.e. owner, group and others
Write permission to owner
rest unchecked..
after this reboot your phone.. this should work.. if it doesn't that means the apk is not compatible with CM7 firmware and you can search for some other calendar app that suits your needs
i've tested this and it wont work.
can someone port the apps for CM firmware? i know it's possible since xda users made it for other phones
i was able to run one of those ported apps in my galaxy s but the resolution was all wrong

An important thing is that what rom you're using. Stock rom is odexed rom, you cannot use system apps without .odex file. This mean you need Gallery3d.apk and Gallery3d.odex to run Gallery app. Also, this Gallery app cannot run in almost de-odexed ROMs (almost custom ROMs are de-odexed, even ROMs which is based on stock)
