Hi i just wanted to know if anyone knows the name of the samsung keyboard in system/apps.
I wanted to replace it with the older keyboard that the SGN first came with.
I would really appreciate it if someone could give me the keyboard apk from the older samsung rom. The one with no numbers on top and bigger buttons.
Thanks.
Also does anyone know how to open a tar file on windows to add and remove apk's ???
AxT9IME.apk is the name of the stock keyboard.
I do not have the stock keyboard as i run a custom ICS ROM on it, You can have the stock ICS keyboard if you wish ? But i dont think its what you're looking for, However you could download a stock SGN ROM (GB ?) and extract it, I think its named LatinIME.apk in older Samsung GB ROMs
Also, Its not possible to open the contents of a .tar file on windows, Inside that .tar is files only recognised by ODIN and Linux machines (or emulators)
You can just remove apps with titanium backup, or freeze them (which is ideal if they are system apps) until you know they are safe to remove, A list of safe to remove apps can be found here, https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...1gdDJRekl4QmkyNmIzUmRvX2h3UDVkQXc&output=html

Thanks for your help, much appreciated.
Do you know how can you add apps to a stock ROM downloaded from the internet??
if you have the rom and its a cwm flashable version you can just use 7zip to add remove parts of the rom and then flash it.
its called being a 7zip jockey there's a lot of them on xda lol

For if the ROM is zipped, and explore it in system / app -> and select and extract it.
If it is a nandroid in system.extx.tar / apps and now you extract,

There is no way to extract it to a flashable zip, directly but maybe take app backup and restore, it will save it somewhere ob your sd card. Then download zeus flashable keyboard, open it with 7zip, delete the keyboard app in there and add the one you backed up. After close the 7zip and sign the zip file with any signer. Flash the file and be happy or just copy it into the running system (system/app), look at the permissions of the other files (of course you need a root explorer) and set it to your new keyboard as well. Reboot and then just choose it and everything should be fine hope it helps

download titanium backup(needs root)on v20c and backup the keyboard,thn restore the keyboard when you are on another rom.the keyboard should be HIME.apk
Hy everyone i've searched for this on google and XDA but i didn't find anything i want, so the point is i wanna remove some of stock files of system and add someones new and i wanna make a zip file for recovery so then i can simply install the OS from my recovery mod... and when i wanna make some upgrades i cam simply edit with a normaly archiver program like 7-zip, winrar, or powerarchiver or another program.. i wanna specify that i'm new in development on android

I loaded Meso ROM this week. I'm very happy with the performance and appearance thus far. It is very clean with all the bloatware removed.
Within the Meso ROM thread, there is a post stating all of the bloatware is available for download. Unfortunately there is no link to a download.
==Removed bloatware (removed samsung related apps)==
this is a flashable zip contains the removed bloatware. if u want to choose the apks u want to flash, then open the zip and in /system/app delete the files u don't want to install.
Does anyone have this zip file? How about stock apps that will work with this ROM?
I tried loading up JVU and extracting the Email.apk and Email.odex, but that didn't work.
Please help!
I don't want to switch. I really like the battery life with GB, and like the way this ROM works.
Contact alkhafaf developer of Mesorom...did you try that first or post on that page?
Try this email.apk : HERE
Copy it to system/app with Root Explorer then reboot phone
Hi All,
I am using Bare Bean 2 Rom by XxPixX ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2181871 )
i dont want to move to any other rom coz this is the best rom for me.
but i want to use themes from ROM Note 3.1 fmw-xxlta by danivancouver ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2520075 )
Can someone provide me a guide how i can make these themes compatible with Bare Bean 2
The way I've always done it. Copied framework-res.apk to my pc. Then I've opened it with winrar, replaced all the images I needed and just put it back to my phone (also check for good permissions).
But first of all, always do a backup, so keep your original framework file in case You would break Your phone (make sure You have usb debugging enabled).
Important notice: don't rename anything in the archive, if You want to rename anything do it in some folder and then copy it to archive.
