[Q] How to install aosp apps on doc rom

I have searched everywhere but can't find anything,
I would love to use the stock calendar app on doc's rom or any other rom for that matter. But i'm not able to find anything that works.
Does anyone know if this is even possible?
I've read that if you use the aosp mail app, the camera fc's.
But nothing about the calendar app.
I would love to know a bit more, I can't imagine it's that difficult.
There is a thread for stock eclair apps and I remember using them once, they seemed to work I recall.
If anyone knows a way I would love to know, I'm getting pretty frustrated with samsungs aproach to the calendar
Regards,

Any idea how to install aosp calendar?

It's in the market.
You'll have to uninstall the Samsung one first, then reboot.

No. The AOSP calendar is NOT in the Market.
I have the same question: how to get a working AOSP calendar in Froyo???
But in this strange sgs community, everybody seems to love so much the TouchWizz Calendar!
Bllblb. It's ugly, not practical, and you cannot read the events titles directly from the week view.
I succeeded installing the Calendar from a CM6.1 Nexus1 Rom. But not the Calendar sync. So it works, but you cannot choose wich calendar to hide.
So. I'm not responsible for nothing, but you can try what I have done.
Download the rom here http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/files/file/187-update-cm-611-n1-signedzip/
Extract from system/app/calendar.apk
-> Or instead of 1. et 2. you can just download from here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18608283/Calendar.apk
On your sgs, use Root Explorer (or ADB if you know how). Delete (make backup first) TWcalendar.apk in system/app/ in your device.
Push the calendar.apk from the rom into system/app/ in your device.
Install it.
Reboot.
You're done. As I have said, the app works, but it Force Closes whenever you try to get in menu/more/calendars.
If somebody have an idea to get he whole thing working... It'd be great!

I don't think this is true either, where did you get this info from may I ask?
Thanks Judim but I have also tried that, had the same problem.
I'm using "Touch Calendar Free" at the moment, it's not as good as google's but still beats the living sh** out of samsungs...
Ah well if this thread bumps we'll just have to wait for CM7 to arrive or buy a Nexus S.
The first way is a bit cheaper though

Try also Business Calendar Beta from the Market. It could be a replacement waiting for a CM7.
I see you're also coming from the Hero... Small device but great CM roms
Cheers!

Here is an AOSP calendar app that I'm using on my Vibrant. It does have the fc issue when selecting more calendars, but does not have the dark bar at the top blocking week one of the month. It does have a skewed transparency up there, but its a mere annoyance and won't affect anything. Push to system/app. Oh the icon is ginger-green to match my rom, but thats all that I changed with the apk.

[Q] Previous apps don't appear

Hi Guys,
I updated my SGS 1 from Froyo to Gingerbread 2.3.2 with Odin. So far so good but when I look into my apps they don't reappear on my phone. If I go into my market account on the web they are still there, as they supposed to be (cloud)
But when I signed into my google account/market on my phone the apps don't appear and I understood they should !
Can anyone please give some advice?
Thanks.

I think odin automatically wipes all user data. If you have purchased the apps then you can easily reinstall them from 'my apps' in android market.

I know Odin wipes but my apps which I can see on the online Android Market under my account should turn up on my phone or not?

Only if you download them .
Gingerbread is Beta .

Ok so that can be the reason that the apps don't show up on my phone. The other strange thing is that my apps on the online Android Market are gone now as well. When I logged in yesterday the list was correct but now it looks corrupted, my apps are gone and I see apps I didn't downloaded. No idea how to solve that?

Apps Android market you logged in and registered phone with product code xxxx .
You have now changed the product code so the market has no apps for you as its an unknown phone not the one you registered with .Re download each item .
jje

I have the same problem, atleast I think.
When I download apps form the android marked and install them on my phone everything works perfect, but if I reboot my phone/ turn it off etc, I loose all my installed apps, then Im just left with the ones that came with the phone.
This happens everytime I turn it off, or if my phone runs out of battery and dies. Shouldnt be like this, enyone know why or what could be causing this problem?

[Q] Picture viewer problems

I have a Samsung galaxy S i9000 with gingerbread 2.3.4 installed and rooted and nothing else installed.
When i go in to gallery to view my pictures and i swype to go from one to the next one it does not move smooth like it did in froyo it`s not a fluid move its a interrupted movement. Did not have this problem on froyo. i re-installed the os powered off the phone stopped most apps and services but the problem did not go away. Any suggestions ? It did this before and after i rooted it. did it on fresh install of 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 on 2.2 froyo did not had this problem. Any suggestions ? except the one that says go back to froyo ?

Well, just a suggestion, use Picturen Lite or Quickpic.
I know this doesn't actually answers your question, but the stock gallery is not that great.

I use QuickPic. It's without doubt the fastest and least cluttered gallery app out there. It's free but would pay for it! Give it a try

[Q] Google Earth on Galaxy Note?

Have any of you been able to successfully install the Google Earth app on the Galaxy Note? I put the APK in and installed it, it opens but freezes on the opening screen...
Works fine on my Nexus though. If I go to the Android Market it shows that it is not available in my country so I cant download it. Strange that it works on my Nexus, though Google Earth was pre-installed in it.

Works fine for me.... I'm in the U.S. just downloaded it and played around to make sure.... I think I'm keeping it on here!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

I'm not in the U.S.A. and I'm thinking it's more of an Android Market geographic restriction, and not hardware related. I have a Nexus that has it pre-installed and works perfectly.
I'm going to give the apk install another try and post back with results.
EDIT- update. installed it, but again, same results. laggy, and my phone was getting insanely hot after about 10 minutes of trying to use it. uninstalled.

Works fine here (Norway).

Works fine here in UK

Hoi, and also works fine here in Germany. Install, Start, and the blue (here are you point) shows my home place.

Wow, seems like I'm the only one with the issues.
Did you guys get Google Earth straight from the market, or was it installed manually?

Google earth working fine here ln Australia, I got mine from market

I could never get it to obtain a GPS lock. German imported version in the US. Every other GPS app works fine. Strange.. I'll try again - deleted after frustration weeks ago.

Works fine here in India installed with the market enabler there's probably just something wrong with you're apk

i don't want to root my phone, so i can't use market enabler.
i tried installing the apk file again (google earth 6.1) and same thing. it installs fine, i am able to open the app itself.
however, it will stay on the opening screen (earth in space with stars) with the rotating circle for minutes, then finally run but very laggy.
i'll try another apk and see if there's any improvement.
EDIT / UPDATE: tried another apk and now everything is smooth as butter. thanks!

[Q] Gingerbread stock apps on ICS

I was wondering if anyone has successfully ported Gingerbread Stock Applications onto their ICS Phone? I want to bring the stock Clock, Calendar, and Calculator apps from Gingerbread onto my ICS Phone. I love ICS and all, but I think google took a huge step backwards in those specific apps compared to Gingerbread. The clock no longer has a stop watch or timer, the calculator layout from GB was much easier and the history of calculations was quick and simple. And the calendar from GB was just much simpler and easier to use.
If anyone has done this please let me know
Thanks

Are you referring to AOSP gingerbread or Samsung gingerbread? There are ICS ROMs that have some Samsung apps ported. Try Doc's Master ICS
Sent from my ICS Samsung Captivate

Im talking about just regular stock gingerbread apps, so I guess that would be samsung gingerbread apps. Up until the last few months Ive used stock gingerbread that came with the phone. Couple months ago I rooted my phone and flashed ICS on there and have loved it since, but these apps are the only thing I miss from Gingerbread. If I downloaded Tibu onto my moms Samsung Fascinate (stock, brand new) and backed up those apps as .apk files and copied them over to my phone, would I be able to install them on my phone even though Im using a samsung captivate with aokp milestone 5 flashed? Or would that give me issues?

That makes sense, since stock ICS isn't going to have those apps. As I said, Doc's Master ICS has a lot of those. I'm pretty sure you will have trouble installing them manually. There may be a way that I don't know of though.
Sent from my ICS Samsung Captivate

Thanks. I might give it a try, I really dont like the ICS versions of those apps.

Hey Bdithug, I was wondering if you found a solution to this issue? I just hate the stock calculator from ICS also, but the one from Gingerbread was great. I have golaucher and APW widgets installed so I'm using their clock and calendar which are pretty good...
Let me know if it worked out for you installing the stock gingerbreag calculator apk onto your ICS phone...
Tx

I tried it. It didnt work. I downloaded apk extractor to send the .apk file from a stock fascinate on gb. when i tried installing the .apk file on my ics cappy it wouldnt let me because of the apps with the same name. so i uninstalled the ics calculator and calendar with tibu, and tried again, and still wouldnt let me. i just i have to resort to a 3rd party app from the market. still dont know why google would have removed features from the calculator app in the first place, thats not usually how updates to apps work. the calendar app for ics is a complete joke. still have not found a quick easy, simple yet attractive calendar app for android.

i have tried Doc's Master ICS, i didnt like it 'cuz i felt it a little unstable, now i'm using Slim ICS, happy whith it, but i was wondering how can i do to install the Samsung Stock Camera APK?? or another one like that???

I run Nostalgia 6.2 and happy with most of the apps. It's based on Slim ICS, but has all the things that I was missing in Slim
I like most of the apps that came with Nostalgia. I did install RealCacl to replace the stock one. RealCal is more of a scientific calculator.
Still getting used to the blue on dark theme. Especially in some html Gmail messages it really gets me

I stuck with aokp and installed acalendar app, easy calculator, and stop watch & timer.
Much better apps than ics stock calendar, calculator and clock
