[Q] Reinstalling Sock APK - Motorola Droid 3

Hiii
I have a Droid XT883 flashed with chinese ROM, already most of bloat & chinese are removed but having below issues :
1. In email it shows all chinese email providers like netease, shina etc, I want to remove them & put verizon default
2. Calander doesn't work
3. In my contact list 3 contacts are there in chinese can't remove them
4. In social nework there is no Icons to create any account
5. Don't want moto chinese input option, need english version. Anyway this also works same if i draw alphabets but will prefer english version
6. some other app issues
I have my phone rooted, & all original stock APK & ODEX files extracted from verizon original droid 3 ROM which I downloaded from internet.
Please someone guide me how i can reinstall them,
I tried copying apk & odex file to memory & installing but installation failed. SWYPE installed but if I go to swype setting it crashes & ask for force close.
Please guide me.

Just use a GB ROM based off of stock.

If you have the apks you want to install you jusy drop them in /system/app, might have to remount it rw first. Otherwise take the easy way an install a verizon rom on it like MrObvious suggested.

Flash Liberty or Maverick or a similar ROM.

Thanx Mr. Obivious & Willis
Hii
First I would say sorry for my delayed response, actually i didn't get any notification of your responses on my mail. Now only i was going through my post & saw ur comment.
As you know it's XT 883 so haven't been able to backup it yet with safestrap.
so won't dare to flash another ROM rightnow as some radio issue may come. I am on a CDMA network & in india most of these imported handsets won't work easily with CDMA. This one i got from ebay with CDMA activated.
I have been able to solve my chinese email problem, removed them, removed chinese contacts as well, removed moto chinese input & instead of swype installed touchpal. Got calendar working too. But now I got some other issues, I will be grateful if u could suggest some solution.
In my social networking account setting there is no icon to add any account it's just a blank page where is says tap on icon to add social account.
No sticky note, In my calendar if i check to show solar holiday or lunar calendar then below date it shows some unreadable font box which I don't like.
But i am loving this phone since the first day, and thank u all for this support forum.

no calendar widget in the rom lg fear

I find it unfortunate that in the rom fear edition there have not lg calendar widget I found well do you know another or a way to add and sorry for English but I use google translate
You can download the LG widget and install from SD via CWM. The weather widget works fine but the calender, it force close when i tap on it. Still trying to figure out this but unfortunately i was not able to post at the DEV forum.

having this problem in blazingdragon rom too, not sure if this occur on original mdc rom
ok what i installed was the widget only, we need to calendar.apk to work. Anyone have idea where to get it? google gave me nothing.
ok i have figured it out.
1) first download the calendar apk from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13428866&postcount=15
2)paste the calendar.apk to .../system/app/ using root explorer after enabled r/w.
3)install the calendar widget apk.
4)enjoy your calendar widget which wont stuck anymore
Thanks dude. For my case, I update to fear v8.0 FR15 a moment ago. Reapply the LG widget zipfile and the battery mod zip. The Calender widget workis perfectly now.
I guess is the V8 use back LG Calender. Infact I use back the LG gallery which is better.
Try it. Its so much smoother now on the UI. Calling apps is instant.

[Q] System Apps Issues

I recently rooted my Galaxy S for the first time, and in the process also installed a custom ROM.
I tried several differnt ROMs, but ended up choosing the Hawkish Premium3 [JVP]Special ROM|GALAXY SII.
Although this ROM is great, there are some issues, but being new to all this, I am not allowed to post a comment or question on that thread.
Here are my issues:
1. The touch tones for the dialer don't work, so in order to use the dialer I have to disable touch tones. I have downloaded different phone.apk files, but after installing, the problem persists. Is there a dialer app I can download to flash onto my device to fix this problem?
2. The Messenging app also seems to have a bug. The messaging itself works, but when I receive a new SMS/MMS, then the Messager app FCs. I have installed different MMS.apk updates, and flashed 2 others, but non fix the notification problem. Is the problem the message app or something to do with notifications? Please share link if possible.
Both these apps are, I assume, ported from Galaxy S 2 ROM, hence the issues when porting. Any links to similar apps for Gingerbread would be appreciated.
Thanks guys

OmniMod (Rom/Theme)

What we have here is my first rom that i made for myself,but i want to share.
I just started to learn programing and the android platform is a tool for me to learn
so what i did here was just made for me but i think there is room for one more dish from the kitchen, so here we have it
This is built on v20g official (new baseband!!!!!!)
Rom fetures: Almost everything what the kitchen has to offer(deoxed,busybox,a2sd.....)
- Power menu (recovery and reeboot added)
- Latest Franco_kernel 2.6.35.14
- wifi fix
- Enabled jit an heapsize to 48mb and some build.prop hacks ;-)
- And some other things i can not remember
- Theme made by me and UOT Kitchen(a very big tanks to those guys)
- lg buttons from Lg 2x by: bioan. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1040012
Apps -Adao file manager
-Battery Calibration (you can uninstall after calibration)
-Browser
-Calendar
-Camera (themed camera that i found somewhere.I don't know who themed it but big thanks to him/her)
-Clock
-Miui Compass
-Fm radio
-3D Gallery
-Gmail
-Go Contacts (removed lg stock contacts)
-Go SMS (removed lg stock sms app)
-Google search
-Market
-Miui Music
-MultiPicture Live Wallpaper
-News and weather
-QQlauncher
-Voice Search
-Youtube
-Wireless Tether for root users (i am having problems built in tether)
Bugs: - The only bug i know of is the built in wifi tether
edit: Sorry there is one more bug. In Go sms when you try to push the + button it loads and loads.
So when adding just type the first letter or number and the xt9 will do the rest (this will be my next problem to understand and solve!)
- For transparent statusbar use MultiPicture Live Wallpaper or a launcher that suports it
Big thanks! to the xda comunity
to Franco for his perfect kernel
to ciox for good tips and howto
to untermensch for his power menu howto. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811532
to everyone i forgot
p.s I changed some icons in some apps(go contacts and go sms and others just for fun).
They will go back to default if/when you uppdate via market.
So basicly this is just another official GB kitchen cooking with some tweeks and hacks. just with another flavor
Download link with GO: http://www.multiupload.com/4N5IM4FX5A
Original contacts and sms apk for those who want (install with root explorer or something and change permission and restart)http://www.multiupload.com/NL2VFCCUSD
Due to popular demand here you go but no go (removed Go Contacts and sms and added Stock apk´s) http://www.multiupload.com/APVVIMU4AC
Nice work bro
Theming is brilliant
You can try and compile a flashable ZIP to enable other stock lg GINGERBREAD users to patch this theme
Thumbs Up..!!

no problems here! no fc no freze
tested and tested over and over,just try it
every time i tried a new version of this rom(wich has only had the go contacts all the time) i did a full wipe (formatt system ect.) to be shure that i don´t have something still under there that makes it run. So IT WORKS!

Wow...i will see your rom later to see how can you remove stock dialer but still can get gsm signal and out/in call

The stock contacts do not have the phone.apk built in
the stock dialer is a part of the original stock contacts.
So when you dial from GO contacts you go straight to phone.apk(wich i dit not remove) and whola! a phone is calling a friend
Does app2sd work properly? Is it app2ext or app2sd?? Do u need an ext partition/? Or like cm7 it directly goes to SD??
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
it has app2ext. but it works like normal if you don´t have ext
edit : it should say a2sd not ext sorry

[Q] Q: screenwake on new message

Hello everyone.
Right now I am running a Stock ROM based software and that is nice, it is the Flair GB based on O2x 20L, smoot rom after tweaks like SR2 Kernel an PP9 and Journal fix for EXT4.
Now my question is that I never found a solution to disable wake on new message, can that be done in the build.prop or du I need to delete something on the phone or go to hidden menu to disable something? same thing goes for the buttom flash, those need to be disabled too
Must tell, that I am using the stock Email and SMS application here, manny says switch to another SMS client, but it must be possible to change those settings in a LG stock message application.
Otherwise, please advice how to change from stock LG SMS application to ASOP SMS application (does MMS work here?) like to flash
Pls. advice
/Otto
Did you try GoSMS? It's quite customizable. Been a while since I've used it though. I'm just guessing here
MIUI rom's sms has it.

About other sofftware on the phone
Sure I have tried the GO sms and Hansend, but for me it is not the right solution, so today I am going to find a way to install the ASOP SMS client, somrthing to remember for MMS? or??
/Otto
Now I got the email working
Downloaded the files from MoDaCo GR5 (Vanilla and Core) and installed the email client by using the Root explorer, no problem here.
BUT now I can't get my SMS to work, copyed the Mms.apk to /system/app
What am I missing here?

[Q] OS Low level modifications

Hello everybuddy
Happy to be among you XDA members
I am new to android, I know how to work with Odin and what a custom ROM, rooted OS,... mean and need some answers to figure out some concepts:
1. I guess Google has made android a modular and structured platform, is it possible to extract some base applications from one ROM and install it on another one currently running on the phone (i9000 in this case), for example is it possible to extract ICS sms app and install it on a 2.3.3 ROM on the phone? or for example extract excellent Samsung keyboard from stock 2.3.3 ROM and install it in a custom ICS ROM?
2. How android manages input languages? for example I see one ROM providing 6 european languages and another with middle-eastern ones... does android provide a regular method to install and uninstall input languages from standard keyboard? (for example you may tell take X files from some ROM and add them to Y folder in another ROM) if so I may add some languages to an ICS custom ROM.
3. How it manages fonts? is there a regular method to add other fonts to the phone? and how to set the default one?
4. A strange problem I saw in a custom ICS rom was that it kept phone numbers in dash-based format (i.e. 090-233-23-23) and if the numbers already in address book was simple and dash-free, wile receiving incoming calls the phone app can't match the contact name in the address book and only shows the number! How you may change this? I like numbers stay simple and dash-free!
5. How to analysis all low-level OS files currently on the phone? for example is there some PC software similar to Odin that connects to phone and shows file system tree ?
Thanks in advanced for any help and reply
as far as keyboard goes if you are talking about swype you can get the swype beta which is free and works on Ics.
I have this on my phone running team icsgs.
Just do a quick google search for swype beta.

thanks for the reply,
I don't mean Swipe, all the features it provides, the way it changes language and...
I need to figure out how android provides modules
Hi, did you find out how input languages work? I just installed the ICS333 ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) and would like to add Greek, which is not currently listed (in the Android keyboard settings > input languages).
low level?
