Hi guys
I was using the PureGingerbread gpc_hd2_gingerbread rom for a while. It has a great app for FMradio and Camera which looks like regular one, but has an autofocus.
Now I use NexusOne Rom and I want to add those to my system ... but how ?
I've tried to unpack PureGinger rom and place apps in my /system/app, but no results. Apps doesn't work, not even appear in installed applications.
Is there any way to help me install this apps ?
P.S. I attached those apps, which I wanna add to my system.
(sorry for my english if it's bad )
Anyone?

open the zip of your rom with 7zip(don't extract it) go to system apps and paste those ups there maybe they work good luck
Already tried and no success

If you want to add APN to the ROM so evry user doesnt have to do it by them self do like this:
danne_jo said:
to fix network settings do like this:
open framework-res.apk but dont extract, just open file and go to /res/xml/ and replace your apns.xml with for example with apns.xml from my rom.
just drag the /res/xml/apns.xml from "mine" framework-res.apk into your framework-res.apk that your are using.

Working smoothly so far. Have tried market, internet XDA app and OsmAnd. Launcherpro working great. Is there no way to get vanilla lock screen or are we stuck with HTC's effort? It really doesn't look so hot on the small screen.

It's a pay app but Goto is really nice if you go in and 'disable' the HTC lockscreen. The HTC lockscreen is lagging down the Goto lockscreen if it is still working , by disabling it Goto can work its magic, and it is much nicer.
I renamed the HTC lockscreen .apk to .bak, hence disabling it, if you know how to do this it shouldn't be a problem for you to do it , if you don't , i suggest you don't try it cause getting back could be troublesome.
@warriorvibhu:
Would it be possible to add (a free) lockscreen of your choice to a ROM btw? I tried just disablint the HTC one , and there is something there that works like a lockscreen , but it doesn't really work well. I think it's a standard Eclair lockscreen but with the settings all wrong , is this settingsfile available somewhere and if so could a vanilla android settingsfile make that work?

Yeah i am all for removing bloat. And now that i am reading it again , a better solution than adding a free one would be to get the standard android one to work as it is clearly there in some form.
Flashed v2, booted okay but not connecting to mobile network? happened with the other versions of your roms too, am i doing something wrong? always do a data and cache wipe before flashing.

My fault i misplaced that apns file.. i can fix that in next rom .. or u can try one thing not sure if it wil work.. but should be done before flashing..use Winrar for following steps..
open the Lite rom file u have downloaded with winrar:>> go to>>System>>framework>>framework-res.apk>>res>>xml>>delete apns.xml.
Now extract apns.xml from apns.zip attached here. drag and drop the file given here in this attachment into the window where u deleted apns.xml from. In winrar change the dropdown menu from normal to store. and accept to update archive.
Now ur ROM is ready to be flashed..without APN problem.
thanks for the help! i might try this or wait for the next release, other than this small issue the rom is great!
This version is really fast. Just regret that I can't remove sh*** like taskiller or the buggy lockscreen.
I think you should not ad anything in order to stay in the "lite version" mind.
Anyway, nice job. Thanks a lot.

I don't have any ROM cooking experience, but hopefully someone can work on an ideal ROM for JPK
It would be a rooted and optimized ROM with the following:
- LauncherPro Plus
- Music PlayerPro
- Fancy Widgets
- DroidX Multi-touch keyboard for Froyo (confirm working awesome on my i9000)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=764021
- Latest Swype
- APPS2NAND
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756157
Place the following to NAND:
- Default App List from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756157
- LauncherPro Plus
- Music PlayerPro com.tbig.playerpro
- DroixX keyboard (com.android.inputmethod.latin)
- Swype com.swype.android.inputmethod
- Fancy Widget com.fancywidget.android
Feel free to chip in ideas
LauncherPro Plus - u serious? ;d
Would be awesome for this with launcher pro though you can activate the plus afterwards. Also touchwiz should be removed.

Good luck getting someone to help you, I'm flat out getting an answer to my updater-script problem!
You can try to download a custom rom like the froyo remix and mod it according to your needs.
Open files with winrar, delete or add and try it... also i found a script to create update.zip but cant remind, try to search for it.
edit:
If you want to create a full custom rom you need to use a "kitchen" (can be found at samdroid or modaco).
It could be possible to create rom using tools like nandroid and clockwork recovery (flash, install app/mod without sim or sd, then backup).
If you just want to mod a rom already flashed, you can use an updater script like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769374 but if you change fils inside you will probably need to edit the "updater-script" and validate the apks using this: http://www.londatiga.net/it/how-to-sign-apk-zip-files/
It would be good to create some kind of "how to create your own custom rom" whitout using kitchens or harcode, some kind of gui tool where we could put an official rom, and remove/add apk/odex then choose to build the full rom or just the update.zip ...
Good luck
Why would you want APPS2NAND? It is slower than any lagfix available.
Apps2NAND is needed because Oneclicklagfix 2.0 becomes slower than going without any lagfix after a day or so.
The only good solution for JPK roms at the moment is apps2nand. Try putting your keyboard on NAND, you'll be able to type really fast like I am doing right now without any lag *I even have word suggestion on*

Google found thread with this name ([REQ]amazonmp3.apk from HTC 1.32.405.6 WWE Stock ROM) on this forum, but link is dead, so I would like to share this app. It is usefull for OTA Desire HD update, becouse update checking system data.
I pasted this back into /system/app/ and rebooted but it doesn't seem to be back on the menu? Are there any other steps required? (Desire HD, stock rom)
Hi,do you install the apk application ?
Maybe it goes in /data/app/

Yes actually, it was the only thing I could of. Changed them to match the other apks in the directory, rw_r_r.
Thanks for the suggestion though.
Hi, I just put the file to /system/app and nothing more. After reboot the app is back in apps list. I use recovery mode and "adb push" command to put file to device.
hi man please can you guide me threw it i am a new user and i dunno know so much about this stuff and i need the amazon to be in my stock rom again can you help me and explain how can i do it
thank you so much
when i used ship rom, i saw amazone bar in htc music app. it shows hot albums and songs
I have been thinking about this for some time now ... How does the htc sense skin changer work? From my experience with android ... A change to framework-res.apk needs a reboot to take full effect ... Like the metamorph app ... It works similarly ... It takes the files from ur sdcard and patches the framework ...
This is where im confused ... To make changes like this ... U need to be rooted and also need to reboot ... And even if it worked the same way wouldnt nand lock just restore it? How is it this skin changer works? If it does work this way ... How the heck does it stay the same ... Or is it like framework-res.apk is an empty shell that has links to the external files?
Could some1 with root please give their framework-res.apk before and after changing the skin? Like from htc to slate or wood ... I want to see what is really happening here ...
Ps if this belongs in the general please could the mod move there? Im extremly sorry if it does ... It is related to root and nand lock so i thought id post here ...
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App
hmm, when u got temp root check for the rights that are set on the file, on this way you probably get you answer
what i think is that specific files are excluded, so they are editable
btw isnt the skinchanger for the launcher only? than its mostlikely just an xml thats been loaded...
it changes the notification bar too
It's a good question, one I am surprised I didn't wonder... I will pull a part the apk to see if I find anything
It doesn't replace the framework-res, because the battery mod sticks when changing theme, so I presume it overlays it in some way
Please test this app.
http://www.androidblip.com/android-apps/quick-reboot-96948.html
Teoretical this reboot ONLY all android processes and Android Interface but NOT physically phone.
Maybe modified files on partition / and partition /system (eg flamework) will not disappear ...
Sent from my GT-I5700 using XDA Premium App
Ok guys i ripped up the frameworks before and after changing skins ... And they were the exact same thing ... It seems that the skin changer overlays the existing looks with the theme ... So no changes to the frameworks ... It just overlaps the.framework images with external ones ...
Wow
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App
But where is it mirrored? Could sum1 with some app experice please check the code out? There are two possibilties here ... Either it is mirror from somewhere in the system partition ... So it can bypass nandlock ... Or it is mirrored from the sdcard ... So we can make our own themes even for s-on devices

The Desire HD until it wasn't S-OFF: First temp root then paste modified "framework-res.apk ' to /system/framework, then hot-reboot (eg this app https://market.android.com/details?id=com.grrmode.quickreboot&feature=search_result), and this worked, maybe it's same with Incredible S?
No i mean like ... The app dosent even touch the feameworks ... It works from files from somewhere else ... Is that /system or the sdcard? Like if u download an extra skin from the HTC Hub... Where is it stored?
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App
Skins taken from HTC HUB, are simply installing APK to "/data/app".
Flamework-res.apk is in /system/framework to be applied need to reboot the phone. In DHD, when there was no S-OFF helped hot-reboot, it restart android interface but modified files stayed.
APK files modify with eg Winrar
So its in /data/app ... Damn ... Hoping it was on the sdcard ... Too bad

Skins HTC Sense: these are the files APK that install like any other program in the (/data/app.) It does not require permanent root, and do not delete at reboot
But you can move through the application manager to the memory card ...

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
