Stock mms.apk needed

It seems I can't flash to 2.3.1 GRH78 because I get "assert failed apply_patch mms.apk" while applying zip through recovery.
I am using rootboot.img from koush.
The mms.apk is the custom app w/black background.i think the update is trying to patch the original mms.apk and failing.
Has anyone encountered this issue? Can someone post original mms.apk
Thanks

Sounds like the same issue I'm having.I'm now using dark gmail and I'm guessing u r not using the modified mms.apk

I ran into the same problem earlier today. I used the mms.apk from Cyanogenmod to try and fix my blurry MMS issues.
I think I'm just going to flash Paul's ROM tomorrow when he includes the OTA.

Here you are!

I had the same problem too with the black Mms.apk. So, I reverted back to the stock Mms from Supercurio's system dump, then, I just used adb to push it and solved my problem.
Well, looks like it's easier to find the Mms.apk ^^^^

I can't seem to install the stock mms.apk.
adb install attached Mms.apk
I get "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE]" I have more than enough storage.
I also tried doing adb install Mms.apk and I get
"Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]"
Any ideas?
I also tried to to push to /system/app and reboot but that didn't work. Does it have to do with me missing Mms.odex file?

Another way is to used Root Explorer or DDMS File Explorer in Eclipse. I've included a screen shot. If you don't already have Eclipse setup you can find How too - HERE to setup.

Wipe and flash Paul's gingerbread ROM and then push black mms and gmail again. You don't lose root, you get 2.3.1 and a few other goodies like ext4 performance tweak
.

I'll try that .
i ended up flashing the stock nandroid with 2.3.1 , rooting and keeping the regular mms and gmail.
Thanks

I just added paul's Rom. Wow, it flies!
I was a bit hesitant to add a custom mod with the nexus s because it's already fast n gingerbread is nice on top of the fact that I was tired of Rom a week.
But thanks it's awesome

[Q] Samsung Keyboard

I had DL30 and loved the Samsung Keyboard, actually preferred it above the android, swype and gingerbread keyboards.
So i went ahead and I pulled the AxT9IME.apk and libXt9core.so out of DL30 and put it onto EB01. rebooted my phone and the Samsung keyboard came up as an option. Selected it and it just force closes until I switch back to another keyboard.
Does anyone have any idea what I should do to get this to run correctly? Am i missing another lib.so file?
Any help would be great. Thanks
Thanks imnuts for posting the zip file.
***See post 11 to download!

there was talk about this in the irc today...the file you need that makes the keyboard work with eb01 is actually from a captivate rom. it is called libdhwr.so. its working on my phone, but i dont have a link to the file anymore. ill see if i can link it to you somehow.

heres a link to the file... http://db.tt/xoNjtyc. ..i take no credit for this...someone else figured it out (sorry i forgot your name)

So where do u apply this file
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

i used root explorer and put it in system/lib...make sure you also put the apk file in system/app.

Awesome thanks guys that worked perfectly.

Anyone have a link to the apk

Got it working. Thanks for the lib file. I finally figured out how to pull the file from dl30.

grab file from the link above (libdhwr.so) and then down load DL30 to extract the files in my original post.
Then using root explorer put AxT9IME.apk in system/app folder
Then put libXt9core.so and libdhwr.so in system/lib folder.
I just rebooted and then the keyboard was there.

CWM zip attached

Imnuts. Flashing that by itself would give me the keyboard?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

Man I love the design of the Samsung kb but I really don't like the auto correct or whatever. When I'm typing it feels like the keys are shifting or something even though they don't appear to be? I hope that makes sense. Lol

auto correct can be disable in setting under language & keyboard then choose Samsung keypad. look through there and you will find the options to disable auto correct.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

You can also use Rom manager to install zip or using Rom manager to install with sos3's build your own setup and just download the Samsung keypad.

Yes. It has the two libs and the apk file that were mentioned in an earlier post and will put them in the appropriate places.

Thanks a lot, imnuts.

Umm, srry if I sound noobish, but I pulled it and had two so files and a apk, the keyboard I working but without predictions on top (above top row) I'm wondering if I'm missing a so file

Saw the zip, everything is working now

[APP][2.3.4/2.3.5] Cyanogen Mms.apk working on Stock Rom

I managed to get the Mms.apk from Cyanogen working on my stock deodexed rom. Settings works perfectly. All I did was compile against the stock sources, and voila, it all works.
I have only tested it on my Rogers i9020a Nexus S, running 2.3.4. Let me know if you have any issues.
I have attached both an apk for package installers, and also a zip for cwm. I highly recommend making a backup of your existing Mms.apk before trying this one, just in case.

Sweet! Thanks for this.
So you decompiled and recompiled? Can u explain more?

i grabbed the latest code for Mms from the cyanogen project on github, and i just replaced the stock Mms source with the one from cyanogen in the android source. i then compiled it, tested it on my phone, and it worked!

Oh ok. Nice job! Works great on Oxygen 2.2.1

Works on bugless and installed fine for me normally, thanx!

Noobish question, what exactly is the difference between this Cyanogen MMS.apk and the stock MMS.apk?

The Cyanogen MMS is more configurable. You can toggle between the standard white background and black background, you can change the font size, SMS split options, change the attachment save folder, custom user agent and other things.

After updating to latest bugless release installing isn't working anymore, it keeps going back to stock after a reboot. I used root explorer to delete stock and stuck the apk in system/apps and matched permissions and that worked.
Quoting myself is odd but I wanted others to see both of my posts together.

i'm pretty sure you have to be rooted to use this, as i don't think you can get at the Mms.apk when your phone isn't rooted. i could be wrong on that. anyone else know for sure?

The OP has a zip for clockwork recovery so using it without root should be OK but you would have to unlock the bootloader and fastboot flash clockwork first which is hallway to root so just take the plunge lol

Imho the stock white-theme just doesn't fit in with the rest of the UI.

ok im confused...I flashed it in CWM and it didnt change anything
so... I renamed my MMS.apk to MMS1.apk then installed the new one and again, nothing. Am I missing something? lol

it looks essentially the same as the stock MMS.apk, but when you go to Settings, you have the option of changing the background to black, and changing the font size, etc.

[REQ] Darky Keyboard

I am looking for the darky keyboard but cant seem to find it anywhere. Any help is appreciated.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium

I know where it is but I'm not telling its a secret only a handful know , I might get in trouble for just acknowledging it exists. But if one were to look into the UNL3ASH3D ROM said person might stumble across it in hiding.

How difficult would it be to extract it from the zip of the Unl3ash3d ROM? Not even sure what it's called. I love this keyboard, but not ready to flash this ROM.

Unzip it and look in the data folder extract latinim3vo or something close to that, I can't remember the exact name and it should install.
Or you can try this though I haven't tested it yet (removed for space)

[APP] ICS Launcher With 3/7 Home Screens

I find it very annoying that the stock launcher comes with 5 screens and you are completely unable to add or remove any of them. I have never needed or used more than 3 screens so it is quite inconvenient to have a launcher with 5 screens that I cannot edit. So, I decompiled the stock ICS launcher and edited the layout to contain 3 screens. I would add an option to edit the screen count in the app itself but I have not compiled ICS on my computer and I do not plan to do so (at least until I upgrade my RAM).
I have also uploaded a version with 7 screens. I tried to allow screen rotation as well but ran into some issues when editing the AndroidManifest.xml. I'll see if I can get it working though.
Download 3 screens: http://www.multiupload.com/ZE4AY4IUM2
Download 7 screens: http://www.multiupload.com/ECCSUYTKI8
To install (rename to Launcher2.apk)
via adb:
Code:
adb push /path/to/downloaded/Launcher2.apk /system/app/
via root file manager:
- copy modified Launcher2.apk to sdcard. Copy from sdcard to /system/app/ and overwrite existing Launcher2.apk

downloading now, will report back. what did you use to decompile? i was using apk manager 4.9 when i was on the Epic but that was failing to decompile (i wanted to mess around myself). i updated apktool.jar and smali/baksmali and still no go.

Thanks. I would like a 7 home screen launcher if u don't mind. . That would be great.

I had some trouble too but realized you need a modified apktool.jar. I got it from the issues page on apktool. Here's the link: http://www.multiupload.com/YWJHOSZ7GJ
Just replace your current apktool.jar (I am assuming you use apktool) with this one.

Awesome, thank you much!

You also need to update your SDK package and pull the newest aapt.exe from the platform-tools folder and place that in APK Manager along with the updated APK Tool.
The new apktool gets you decompiling but you need the aapt.exe to complete the package so you can re compile....

ordinarily, you would fix permissions to rw-r--r-- and reboot
or if adb:
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/Launcher2.apk
adb reboot
.. or reboot into recovery -- advanced, fix permissions. But I was having trouble with FCing after. Anyone else? I'm gonna give it another go. Realllly need 2 more screens
