I've grown attached to these proprietary LG apps, so I de-odexed, resigned with CM platform keys, etc. so I can continue using them on CyanogenMod.
Hope it's useful for someone else.
Do this first
Copy this to /system/etc/permissions/com.lge.app.floating.xml
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<permissions>
<library name="com.lge.app.floating"
file="/system/framework/com.lge.app.floating.res.apk"/>
</permissions>
Put com.lge.app.floating.res.apk in /system/framework/
Reboot.
For Memo
You can just install Memobin.apk like a normal apk.
For QuickMemo
You need to copy QMemobin.apk to /system/app/
You need to overwrite /system/framework/android.policy.jar with the one attached.
Old Information Below. DISREGARD
In order for QuickMemo to work properly, you need another app to launch QuickMemo like this:
Code:
sendBroadcast(new Intent("com.lge.QuickClip.action.START_QUICKCLIP"));
If you just add the QuickMemo activity to Apex or Nova launcher, it will look like it works, but it will only show your scribbling with a black background instead of the screenshot.
Same if you use startActivity() instead of sendBroadcast().
I spent a whole afternoon figuring this out.
I am going to look at hooking that up to the usual Vol+ + Vol- hotkeys somehow. Hopefully will only take a couple of days.

If you are on CM and if you get parse error, move apk to data/media and install from there. It works for me, I think is the problem in permissions.

Do what LGaljo said, or see the Official CyanogenMod thread for a fix for permissions or use adb install.
Thanx arararagi,
I will test this app.
And if you have the time and opportunety can you please also make a CM version of the dual view LG calendar?

I already set the xml and pushed QMemobin apk to system/app. I tried installing the apk memobin through device but I get a failed install and when I tried installing via adb I get 'device offline' error. I can't install apks from other places either because of the CM bug.

Device offline is because of new adb security features in 4.2.
You need the new version of adb from the Android SDK Tools: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
You only need to select and install the platform tools from the SDK Manager to get the latest adb.

Can you port the Optimus G Lockscreen? Which also has been ported to O4X's stock.

Ok so I am trying to get friend stream to work in the new fresh rom. I got the apk from damages rom along with the widget. In cmd I successfully push the apps /system/app/ after typing in adb remount. However after I reboot the app is not there. How do I get this to work? Also was wondering how to port a system app from a darchlegend rom to work on any other rom. Any advice is welcome.

Wont work, period. It needs an .odex for both the widget and the normal .apk for it to work in the latest release.

Some apps just won't install. Tried multiple sources, releases etc. Rooted, not rooted. Always the same message: "application not installed"
My only guess is permission conflicts may be blocking complete installation?
Anyone found a work around for this?

What apps are you trying to install?
I've found a few that wouldn't install & it was because of missing .jar files & libs that the Kindle doesn't ship with, after finding out what an app needed I added them required files & it installed OK but many still have compatibility issues & just stop working, mainly those that rely on Google Maps & location services, not much can be done I don't think.

Hi all
I think that in few days the official Jelly Bean will come to our phones.
I would like to upgrade it using the LG OTA Update App installed in our phones.
But there's one problem: I deleted the app. I don't want to reinstall the system.
So If someone would post me the apk of this app, i would be very grateful .
Thanks in advance

And the LGFOTA.apk.

3.Set the permission (look the other file and set the same).
4.Reboot.

I copied the apk files and odex in /system/app (also tried /system). Set the permissions to 644 - as other files in the folder (using Total Commander). Reboot and nothing happened. I still don't have the app in my menu. I don;t know how to make it work...

Just re-flash the phone with the same version using "UpTestEX_mod2_marwin", choose the option "DIAG".
Takes 7 minutes and if the app is missing or the files corrupted will re-install them. All other apps/files and settings will remain.

So, I can be sure, that other apps, contacts and settings will remain after flashing it? Of course, I made a backup, but if I wanted to reinstall whole system I would have done it. But I just want to make this app work, because when the official update will come, I will update system using this app .

I guess you are flashing a 4.2.2 MMS.apk on a 4.1.1 rom so it's not going to work.
Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1637121
It's for 4.0.4 but should work on 4.1.1, if it not work then restore the original MMS.apk you can get it from one of the 4.1.1 roms on the forum.
Every time i try to recompile or decompile i get this error it looks like a java error but i have tried reinstalling in and on other computers so i dont know what it is if anybody could help that would be great.
You need to install the framework-res.apk and tw-framework.apk both of them in the framework folder. Google how to install framework for apktool.

It's because your using an old version of apktool. Don't use the automated programs they suck. Do it manually with aptool.jar just Google how to use it properly. Should have no issues. And make sure java is installed properly.

Yep. You have to install both frameworks. Framework-res.apk AND tw-framework.apk. They also have to be installed. See this website
