[Updated]08-03-2012 Gapps-Old Market(Fixed Gtalk Screen Layout)

This is for those people who were asking for Old Market.
UPDATED:
-=Gapps=- Last Old Market Update 2.3.6 Fastest Market - Fixed Gtalk Screen Layout 08-03-2012
This would probably be the last update. Nothing left to do much in this thread. Ciao!
Changelog:
Code:
Reverted to GoogleSearchWidget from the last GB gapps from goo-inside me.
Updated Youtube.apk(2.4.4)
Removed Gmail.apk (Useless app from Google- Cant even download zip attachments. I suggest you use Email.apk from stock. Attached in thread. Works far better)
Signed all apps and removed some bloatware.
Fixed Gtalk Screen Layout
Removed Market Updater
Retained Maps framework files
Removed Maps.apk because it runs in background usually even after closing resulting in battery consumption. If you want Google maps, Just download from market.
Note: If you cannot see the market after flashing this, Just login to Gtalk and Market would appear within a second.
Updated - http://www.mediafire.com/?j5ifpfeuccg28ny
Flash in CWM.
Can be used for any Custom Rom with GingerBread Baseband.

Yeah. You can flash it. If your latest market doesnt downgrade after flashing this,
Uninstall Market from Titanium Backup and then flash this in Recovery.

i always find it disturbing though
when i flash the gapps
market is always missing in the menu
what would that be?
i found it in titanium backup and i defrost it,
its back in the menu, but when i restart the phone
i need to defrost it again,

I havent experienced this till now. :|

thanks for the update. flashing....

Updated- Not a major update, just reduced gapps size and removed unwanted cache.

I have the old market but wid other ways
I flash the lastest gapps
open Root Exploler system/app
- I deleted MarketUpdater.apk
- I deleted Vending.apk
- copy Vending.apk http://dl.dropbox.com/u/45927534/Vending.apk and paste on system/app change permissions rw-r--r--
- get market 2.3.6.apk http://dl.dropbox.com/u/45927534/Market 2.3.6.apk
and replace it
its will be any information that market is force close... dont worry just reboot your phone ..... done
about gtalk i use dark gtalk http://dl.dropbox.com/u/45927534/Talk.apk
copy Talk.apk and paste on system/app change permissions rw-r--r--
Reboot
same result but different ways
sorry my bad english, hope you've got my point

Thanks!

I used to do the same thing(except the dark thing your talking about). I change ROMs quite often,so doing this process was irritating me a lot. Thats when I decided to make a gapps zip with all of it already done.

I dont think it would work in ICS, Its only for Ginger Bread Baseband

i can't get this to work, every time i flash this on cm7.2 rc5.5 the search widget displays error and the market sometimes doesn't shows up or sometimes shows but doesn't do anything. It's really frustrating and some other dude from my place is having the same problem. (we have the same phone SGM)
EDIT: f*ck didn't see the note you put there, gonna try to log to google first and see if market will be visible. sorry
EDIT2: it works -.-" haha thanks

[Q] how to Replace .apk from system with our selection

I found nice memo, dialler, calendar at Android Market.
Under system/app, there is memo, dialler, calendar but cannot remove it. How can I remove and replace with my selection? Tq

no need to remove them just install new one normally and if you want to remove you need to have root

If u'RE already rooted..then install root explorer..navigate to system apps...delete apk...copy the napkins u want..fix permissions and u're done

never delete dialer app
cause all others work through it (like ex dialer)
and for other to u need to root your phone and then get system app remover
and delete them

Tq very much for all suggestion. I've root my Mini, using emanoN v5. I install my selected apps as usual but it not replace with existing apk such as dialler. Which mean, original dialler still at same places. No change with my selection apk

i use titanium backup to remove all unwanted system apps seems to work well

Can you explain in detail on your method? My device is rooted using emanoN v5

open es file explorer go to aetting check all the root options
go the root of your device by keeping your finger pressed on star button
then go to system, then go to app, copy the apk file in that folder you want to install

I had try exactly as your advice to install dialler but it install as a second dialler. Is there anything i would missed up something? I tried rename same as original dialler but when install, on portion where we can cancel or install, it still show its original name. I realized all .apk in system/apps have it twin file (.odex) which I believe to differentiate the system apk and normal apk. Does need do something on this?

Use systemapp remover to remove any app from the ROM. Of course, always be careful when removing system apps.

@ jayrome876
its a humble request to remove the link in next 3 hour
if it is not done I will report it to mod and you may be banned

done reported your post to mod may you get a ban

I found newer version but it disable system apps. only can play with regular apps

What about setting permissions, will they always bee the same.??
Out of curiosity when apk is pushed to system/app folder, does it get deleted in a factory reset.??

if your mobile is rooted download root explorer then go to data\app then delete it from there .... and you didnt find it there you will find it in system\app and delete it from there and make a restart and you may re-install it

Or search in play store for root uninstaller,those apps can uninstall system apps.
But rootexplorer is the best file manager.also for modifying flashable zips like roms or theme where u want to delete or add apps in the rom.just extract and zip it up when u are finished modifying the rom.
If u delete the apps directly from system/apps then use "SDmaid"(app from play store) to clean out crap, leftovers from apps u delete.

thanks for quick reply , after getting root explorer on and changing permissions for solid explorer i finally managed to delete it
but now it will not install from Play...it says "error - incompatible update ?
shall i just stick with root explorer ?

dont update it . it works great

i deleted it from system app like you advised
so went to play and had install option so i clicked install then that error came up
there was no update option to click
i wonder if reflashing the rom will fix it?

reflashing is not the solution . try oi file manager it is awesome

will do !
thx again for your time

Yeah, stick with rootexplorer, clearly the best, oi manager is also good, but in my opinion it lacks some of the features rootexplorer got.
If u want an innovative filemanager, then try androexplorer, there is a free version without root and zipping, but u get the idea what it's about with the free one and read on how to use it. I use it for moving files around.

haha guess wot..... elite 1.3 came out yesterday so i updated & flashed and OI is now the new file manager
sorted !!
thanks for your help guys, appreciated

System App Update

Hi
i'm using an AOKP ROM and i have a problem, but i had this problem also with many other (cyanogenmod, miui ...) ROMs...
I installed an update for an system app (playstore)... no problems... if i reboot the app is still updated, but if i shutdown the phone an turn on, the app is "downgraded" to old version!
I used Link2SD: integrate update in rom... this works and android update the system after reboot, but the problem persists
a wipe after convert app to system does not help -.-
now i have the followig questions:
1: how to fix this (without wipe the system)
2: how to modify an ROM.zip to integrate some updates?
thanks in advance

Try this..
1. download latest playstore (v 4.3.11) on your pc
2. transfer it into your phone
3. rename the file to Vending.apk
4. go to system/app and delete the old playstore file
5. now place the dowloaded file in system/app and set permissions rw-r--r--
6. reboot.
now it wont be downgraded..:good:

Firstly make sure the internet.apk is compatible to your os. I mean if you put the Internet.apk for ICS in Gingerbread it wouldn't work. Secondly you have to paste it in /system/app and not /system/apk. Thirdly the permission is rwx,r-x,--x. After this reboot you device. That ought to do it

its compatible with my os as i have taken backup before uninstalling,
and its was mistake, i pasted it in /system/app only not apk.

If you have already taken the backup before uninstalling, you just have to restore it. Its as simple as that. What kind of a back up did you take- Titanium Backup or CWM?
