VVM/My Verizon/Flash 10.2 all for GB (Updated 7/20)

OK, so I'm putting these up all in one place. This way you can stop asking for them in various threads. I'll add others as I discover need to add them.
My Verizon only works on VZW based ROMs.
6/27 Only works with PlainJane v3 AFAIK 6/27. GB ROMs will need to wait for a new base leak most likely.
6/30 Update - Older version works again. Download MyVerizon.apk for the older version that works on most newer ROMs. the com.vzw.hss.myverizon-1.apk will only work on the MR2 based ROMs.
VVM (visual voicemail) - Works on all versions of everything as far as I know. It also fixes the notification issues that people are having with voicemails on bamf roms. (your account must have it enabled for it to work, $3 a month.) - Apparently doesn't work with the Thunderstick ROM or CM7 1.2. Not sure what got changed in this most current build, but it definitely broke VVM. Thunderstick has some conflicting files baked in that break it.
Flash 10.2 edited for use with hulu.com as well. If you don't use it for hulu you won't see any difference. CM7 users rejoice? Just make sure you don't accidentally update it via market or you'll lose in browser flash video again and need to re-install this.
If you're having issues with a particular file, please post what ROM you're running. I'm trying to narrow down possible culprit ROMs.
If these files help you, don't forget about the "Thanks" button
Enjoy.
6/25 - Re-uploaded VVM.apk since a couple people seem to be having issues with it. I even deleted it off my phone and re-downloaded it via this attachment to check to make sure it went through properly. Since there are only the 2 people commenting that it didn't work out of 100+ downloads of the file, I'm going to assume that something happened on your end not mine (make sure you have unknown sources checked in your application settings and/or re-download?), but re-uploaded and tested nonetheless.
6/26 - Had to pull My Verizon due to an update today that breaks it for us. No current working version known for Thunderbolt.
6/27 - Ok, so the structure is there in the MR2 froyo update (plainjane v3) so I'm putting the current apk up. I need to figure out what i need to strip out of MR2 to make it work for other ROMs.
6/29 - Added Skype
6/30 - Changed Skype File location to Fyels.com for more bandwidth.
6/30 - Re-Posted the older My Verizon APK. No idea what VZW is up to on their end, but it no longer prompts for update locking us out. We'll see how long that lasts.
7/5 - Fixed Broken link for skype. Added bold text to netflix description to make it more obvious that it doesn't work on unrooted/froyo phones...
7/8 - Added Flash 10.2 (is also edited for use with hulu.com) for CM7 users.
7/20 - Removed netflix. It is now natively supported.
7/20 - Updated VVM to newer build version.
8/5 - Removed skype. Natively supported.

Good post. Good idea.

My Verizon app not working on my stock T- bolt. Pop up says not supported on this device. Did you mean all *rooted* Verizon based ROMs?

This is great, and I'ma let you finish.... but where's the Hulu+? #kanyeshrug

You should be able to download it from the market if you're stock but the thread title says "for GB"

Hulu plus is not currently supported on the tbolt (hence i won't put it in the op til then). If you want to mess with it, here's the apk. You can manage queues etc but you cannot play video. You will get a "device not supported yet" type error. You may be able to edit the build.prop to get it running by tricking it into thinking you have a different (supported) device but the idea to this thread is to not hack/edit things to get them working.

Not on the market for T-Bolt, and sorry...I missed the GB in the thread title (linked here from another thread).
At the risk of being accused of threadjacking, somebody saw my post and sent me a link for a MyVerizon app that works on a stock T-Bolt. (Thanks Zinsko!) So in case somebody makes the same mistake as me and wants the same answer, It's here

I don't trust apps that I don't pull myself. Someone in that thread noted that that apk got flagged by Norton (mine doesnt). Just a heads up.

I had my concerns, but my Lookout Mobile gave it a thumbs-up, and it seems to work as it's supposed to. But thanks for the warning.

Tried installing vvm but no dice...tried installing as a apk tried dropping in system app tried renaming it. all I get is app not installed do I need to change permissions?

Anyone have luck with the VVM APK? Can't get it to install at all. Using BAMF 2.1. Tried a straight APK install and just dropping it into the sytem/app folder via root explorer.

And yes, I did change permissions. Would really love to get this working, as I have to use VZW VVM for work. Thanks.

All I do is install it like anything else. Looks like this.
Make sure you have unknown sources checked. I'll reupload it when I get home if people are still having issues. I've installed it on every version of bamf that didn't include integrated Vvm and cm7.

Won't install or won't run?

I am very happy that this is thread came out cuz I've been tryin to leave Froyo but those 3 major apps were an issue w/GB and it looks like no more issues. Am on the latest Gingeritis and all those apps work anyway so I'll cnfirm the truth about this thread once I decide to test the other GB roms again. Great thread though OP. Much props to you. If you can somehow make the HTC messaging widget bug leave GB as well, You'd be even more of a hero

When I try to launch the My Verizon app on Bamf 3.0 RC3 it says there is an updated version of the My Verizon app in the market. If I select upgrade, it launches the market, but can not find the app. If I select cancel, it closes the My Verizon app. Is anyone else having this problem?

Thanks! a lot

This should work with any hdpi resolution device including the nexus one. I know it works on cm7 that is what I use.
The full all apps flashable needs to be updated though. Should be able to do that today sometime.

Just installed the Google+ and Google Reader apps and they look really great, thanks!
Do you have a twitter or something where you push notifications of updates? Or should we just keep regularly checking the website?

I will be getting something for that here soon. But right now just checking my site or the original post from the top link (I always post when new versions are available).

Ok I got a twitter and rss going now that will tell you about updates
Twitter

The RSS will always update first it is what is feeding the twitter.
When I make any changes to apps or my site I will be posting updates here.

Terrific, subscribed

I flashed the latest all apps zip and it appears that the only app that flashed correctly was the music app. I tried to download the Google + app off your website, but it came up as a map file. I also tried extracting the zip and installing the apk and changing permissions. And through all this all I could get was the music app to take. All of this is on CM7 Nexus S 4G.
Edit: nevermind I went back to the original thread and saw that the original apps need to be removed first.

I have no clue what you did because there is no music app in this. The files will download as apk now. you can also just rename the .man files to .apk.

Yeah that is odd. Don't know why the music widget changed. I just ended up extracting the zip with root explorer and installed them one by one. These look great. Following you on twitter to see what you do next. Keep up the great work.

Looks nice! Downloading them all

i cant get any of the flashables to take. every .zip (talk, market and the whole set) says it installed, but nothing changes. not sure why. NexusS4g. i can install the ones that you've got there as apk only but the two system apps dont work.

For the system ones you will need an app like root explorer and copy them into the system/app folder and change the permissions then reboot. Make sure you delete the old ones first. If you are not familiar with the permissions it should look like this.

Thank you for the effort. The inverted translate has a small issue. In the top left corner there appears to be some writing that sits on top of itself. It says translate twice and you can barely read it. Has this been reported?

FYI, Google market is based on a carriers, phones and countries that you were residing at. So, some of the google apps is not available for certain countries.
As a solution, we need to download the 'missing' apps manually rather than through our phone/tablet.
There's a lot of site offering these kind of apk.
This site here offer complete list of google apps with periodically update..
or just flash this gapps-gb-full-20110815-signed.zip

Hi there, this gapps include market?? don't know why but after flashing CM7 i don't have the market app :S

[q] How to remove Google and Google+

Hi, I have one question about Google and Google+. How to remove the files in our custom rom before flashing the rom? Ya, we can delete it using root explorer but I love to know which apk/files contain the twos apks. Thank's.

Google+ isn't necessarily an apk in the gapps package so google+ won't be there in the custom ROMs and I'm not sure if Google Now is a thing that can be removed as it is an exclusive feature of Android 4.1+ . Not sure though. :|

afair Google Now gets active only after you log in to your Google account from Google Search, logging get out brings the Search back

He wants to disable google search, i don't see any way to do that except not flashing gapps at all which isn't desirable. I'd be glad if you can help him disable google search if possible.

If it is a TW ROM then just pull the apk's out of system/preload...

I guess it all depends on the ROM - I have two different devices, on one the Search is a system app (system/app/Velvet.apk), on other it was installed via Play market (data/app/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.apk).
Generally if the apk resides in zip file, it can be removed before flashing (I usually clean ROMs from all apps I don't need on my PC using WinRar), the only problem could be finding name of the apk file to remove.

Yes you're right, the name of the app is where the problem resides as I did check the frameworks folder of the ROM. It's ROM specific isn't it, and tampering with an app like google search can surely cause some unforeseen errors too. I don't see any reason why google search has become such an undesirable app for the poster!

Not sure how it works for stock-based ROMs, on my N7000 I have Slimbean, which comes without Search - it can be installed from the Market separately if someone needs it
Sent from my GT-N5100 using xda premium

Slimbean has gapps of its own, customised for the ROM which are available on their site. The gapps on goo.im which are prescribed by some other ROMs come with the feature of google-search.

in this case it should be enough to remove "QuickSearchBox.apk" from the zip file before flashing

This removes Google search altogether or just the search box on the home screens which cannot be gotten away from the settings options in certain ROMs?

Not sure, the search box may be a separate widget, you could check with Root App Delete (enables/disables system apps)
