AOSP Browser - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have gotten tired of the Chrome browser and it's lag. I am trying to install the stock AOSP browser and Flash, but none of the all files I downloaded will work. They all say there was a problem parsing the package or application not installed. Can anyone post a working KFHD aosp browser?
Thanks

[Q] Vanilla MMS?

So my biggest gripe with my phone from day one is the moto messaging app. Now that we have root I am trying to install the vanilla asop app.
I have tried pulling the app from my og and installing in /system/app and setting permissions right. Upon reboot the app is installed however when you try to run it it just FCs
I also came across this link http://www.droid-life.com/2010/04/15/download-new-mms-apk-with-custom-settings/ which I believe is the same mms.apk used in cm7 right now. I tried both sets of instructions, using root explorer and adb. Both give me the same result as before with FC.
Thoughts? Ideas?
I have tried with and without the moto messaging app installed as well.
bump? Anyone have any idea?

No install . apk option in Cwm?

I just installed Cm 7 alpha 3 and I am trying to install the latest Skype but it fails when I just run the . apk and when I go into cwm I do not have the install. Apk?
Anyone know how I can install this..?

you dont install apks in cwm, you do it in android.
go to settings-> applications, and check the unknown sources box
then go to the file manager built into android, navigate to the apk, and then click on it. you will be prompted to install the app.
hit install and it will be installed.
Cheers, I will try that tomorrow.

"File Manager" is not built in to the version Sony Ericsson uses. Glad to see it on the TouchPad though. Let me ask: Is there a "notepad" or "notes" app that is supposed to be built in? SE didn't include one of those either.

I've actually used it before and I do agree: It's good. I was just curious about the "built in" statement because, to my knowledge, there is no standard one "built in" to Android and it can be a problem.
CM7 has one built it but a pure AOSP build like the SDK doesn't IIRC.

Download one from Play Store. ES should get you started.
I use file manager hd, from rhythm software, available free in the play store. Use the version for tablets, it works great.

Well what Rom have you Flashed? The more information you provide the easier it is to provide an answer, as the gapps will vary depending on your Rom.

Aptoide stuck on google package installer

I can download and search for the apps fine but once it's actually installing, the package installer is stuck.
Download and install a previous version of Aptoide. The same problem you describe, appeared on me with the latest version of Aptoide.
Your phone doesn't have to be rooted for it to work right?

For Aptoide, not. You must however, enable the "unknown packages" option in the Settings\Security panel.
i have the same problem
this problem is caused by aptoide , in the new versione the file downloaded havent .apk extension and the installer doesn't work
if rename the file EXAMPLE in EXAMPLE.apk the installer works correctly but u have to do this with all the application downloaded :/
i want to try to modify to rename the file with extension
Is there an app that's similar or better than aptoide?

Aptoide is the best cydia-like app we have in Android. That's the end of it. If anyone else is experiencing installation problems with the latest versions of Aptoide, all he has to do is simply install an older version of Aptoide. It may be simpler in looks, but, most importantly, it WORKS!

Do the apps update themselves when you use aptoide?
Had the same problem on aptoide 4... revert to 2.7.1 and it'll be fine

Do the apps update themselves on aptoide or do you have to install the latest one whenever it comes out?
Does anyone know where to install an old version of aptoide? Whenever I try, it always gives me 4.0
Works fine fir me, after upgrading to 4.0 just delete the .aptoide folder then stop the app and clear data in app settings.
Relaunch let it add the default repo and any updating onstalls fine...

Where can I find an older version of Aptoide? If you root 4X HD, will you still have the same problem with installation for Aptoide? It is very important for those who love applications....

Root or not doesn't matter in this case.

How to get standard Samsung video app installed?

Hi, I wondered if there was any way for me to get the standard Samsung video player app installed on my 3110 running [ROM][Hybrid][JB:CM10] Paranoid Android 2.51+ - Legacy?
I extracted SecTabletVideoPlayer.APK from a Samsung 4.1.1 rom and tried to install but it stopped part way through with a generic not installed message?
Thanks
Dom
You could try to copy that APK to /system/app/ and set its permission to rw_,r__,r__. Then reboot your tab. I haven't tried to install that myself, but it might work.

It won't work... It needs the TouchWiz framework and other files, that don't exist in non-TouchWiz roms. I've also wanted that and tried, but no go. Not the video player, the music player, the calendar, the S-Planner, nothing done by Samsung works.

permission problem
I'm using a GS4 i9505 v4.3 and 4.2.2(both of them) rooted with CF-auto, every time when this app want to work i ask for root permission and I grant but at the end I get this error:
su-mksh: <stdin>[14]:cat:/system/bin/debuggerd.res:no such file or directorymount:device or resource busy
I also update the security policy to pass the app.
What is the problem?

im gonna edit the thread.
I tried to install the apk file attached in first post but that didnt install , i guess CWM is the only way to get this launcher.
I have a modded tre.. launcher with different name so wanted to install the original CM11 version but i guess the simple apk install wont work.

It's not working for me, but it's probably because I have Android 4.1.2...
It seems like cm11 Trebuchet stopped working on my AOSP 4.2.1 rom in mid June (around the 15th). Before, it was working very good.
Anyone knows why or how to make it work again?
edit: The problem is that it installs propperly but fails to open when i use the home button.
Here is CM11 trebuchet, as built on the 5th July 2014. I MODIFIED AndroidManifest.xml and now it works again on my 4.2.1 Jellybean rom.
Not working list:
Wallpapers (you ve gotta set it manually from Gallery)
Themes
Protected Apps (You can still hide apps with xposed GEL settings app, through xposed framework, if it's a matter)
Exactly like before. I played around in order to make these menus open but I failed. It seems like they interact with other processes/apps (like Settings.apk) which are exclusively found on CM11.
Does this change the notification and status bar to the same style as Trebuchet?
perfect launcher!
This launcher is better than google's launcher because we can remove that persistent search bar.
I installed it on my "spice mi 498".
Thanks for the launcher.

Try searching for cmapps in play store, although that app is broken but in description you can find direct web link.
Also my phone has android 4.4.4 and my phone is from android one series.
I think previous android version might be the problem.

try installing then moving to system as Launcher3.apk
Thanks for the APK dude, it works like a charm on my X-BO V5. Had to use the flashable ZIP version as the companion app to the default launcher, if not the launcher itself, is tainted.
