[App] Lollipop Gmail and Calendar - Sprint HTC One (M8)

Hello Everyone. I came across these on a different section of XDA, and figured I would repost! Huge thanks to Lukijs for posting these.
Gmail, Email, and Exchange Services (Unpack this zip and install... DON'T FLASH!!)
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95747613655048183
Google Calendar
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95747613655048182
These are all from Lollipop. I have them all running on Bad Boyz Rom.
Edit: I thought these were signed because they installed just fine on my device. It would seem I was wrong. You will have to uninstall the original and install this to get it up and running in some cases.

Any way to confirm these are safe? I'm getting an error about "conflicting signature".

As far as I know they were pulled from the Lollipop build, but other than that, no. I have them installed on my device and they are running great. I think they have a conflicting sig to keep unrooted peeps from installing. you will have to uninstall the old app and install this one to get it up and running. I believe you had to do the same w/ the keyboard app too.

I installed keyboard without uninstalling (with some added .lib files). I just want to be sure before I install them.

Makes sense. I can't really tell you much more then that. I edited the original post as to not mislead people.

for people that cant get this to work (like me), did you do anything with your Google Play Services apk? when I dont have play services installed it opens fine but then it tells me it cant run without it but when I install it, it crashed immediately every time i try to open it?

OK, sorry it took so long to respond. Not sure why it worked for me. I did install the email app as well. What version is your Google Services. I am on 6.1.83. Make sure you install the exchange services too. Since Gmail has exchange support you will need it! Hope that helps!
Edit: I would also mention I am on Bad Boyz ROM

Working Market fix (tested on TnT Lite, should work elsewhere)

First off, this is not my fix and I take no credit for it - I am just passing it on. Many thanks to xguntherc for posting the original fix, and KorbenD for pointing me in the right direction on Titanium Backup.
Their posts, as a reference:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9294190&postcount=2835
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9302719&postcount=2846
I will summarize the Titanium Backup solution, as that's the one I had gotten to work. The non-TB solution did not work for me, but still relevant as some people have gotten it to work in cm:
- Get a copy of Titanium Backup and sideload it (free version is fine). http://matrixrewriter.com/android/
- Make sure the Market is working with your Google ID, of course.
- Go into Settings -- Applications -- Manage Applications and Force Stop both the Market and Google Services Frameworks apps.
- In Titanium Backup, go into "Backup/Restore", look for "Google Services Framework 2.2", click on it and then choose "Wipe Data". Then go back to the home screen.
- Run the Market app. You should get an error (that's a good thing, as that's what we want. If you don't get an error, re-try the steps above until you do).
- Reboot, and wait at least a minute after the OS is up to let things stabilize.
- Run the Market again. You should see an immediate difference.
EDIT: You might have to do one more reboot to get apps to actually download and install. I had this issue, but it might have just been me.
I tested this on TnT 1.02, but keep in mind that my TnT is further modded so results may vary. Good luck!
It worked!!! Thanks a million my friend for posting this.
Works on Zpad 1106
Working very nicely on v1 build of the zpad clean V1.0 Thanks this is great!
Updated apps!!! rockplayer is now working he he.... I'm like a kid in a candy store Nice find man
Works perfect on 6.1 beta!!! Thanks!
This doesn't seem to work on a rooted stock g-tablet. I also tried the Titanium Backup method, but no luck. It does give me the Market terms of use on first run.
You guys are going to force me to use a modded firmware! I still want to wait and see what ViewSonic/Flextronics comes out with for an update.

Well, as soon as you add gapps, it's technically modded already. You might as well come to the dark side 100%!

Seems this device may steal a lot of the Archos 101's thunder for mid to higher end Android users, since easy to root and a LOT more powerful. Apparently both devices have the same display too. Need to see the Archos 101 in "person" to confirm this, but Youtube vids show the same weak angles.
Talk about irony. Archos talks smack and is a month and a half late (even later for 2.2), only to be beat to and in channels by a device with no smack talk. Ironic.

Did you start Market after each reboot? Or did you just reboot three times.
OTA: Using the vanilla post over the air update to... 2638(?) I think?
Tried Market everytime. And each time it came with error screen.
Last one came populated
Hope it helps
I don't seem to be able to get the desired results, no matter how many times I reboot.
If the ViewSonic update doesn't give a decent market, I will reset the device and start over. I'm still not convinced that I need to install a custom ROM.

The Viewsonic update is going to be a device reset, for all intents and purposes - that's why I'm not making any mods until that comes out.

Is my Titanium Backup not installed properly? (first time ever trying to use it, I'm a total n00b on all of this) I get to Backup/Restore, but don't see any sort of Google Framework entry. Is there something I need to run first?

It should be in there - it's "Google Services Framework 2.2", it's alphabetical.
You have gapps installed, I assume? Market is there?

I sideloaded Market, didn't use the TNT/gapps loader. So perhaps that's my problem. (Though I don't see any apps listed in Titanium Backup/Restore. Maybe it has something to do with the error I get about "BusyBox works but the 'su' command does not elevate to root" when I open it.)
(Can't do the YouTube Market fix, either, because I have no option in the TnT Settings / Applications to Clear Data--only Clear Cache is there)
I imagine I'll be going to TNTlite pretty soon, but I was waiting for the OTA for.... no particular reason, really.
Thanks.
This worked great for me using tntlite 2.0, but this step "- Go into Settings -- Applications -- Manage Applications and Force Stop both the Market and Google Services Frameworks apps." the manage applications buttton was missing.. the actual button I used was System Applications.. otherwise the instructions worked. also be patient when you are wiping data in titanium backup, after hitting the button it does take a while before it will show a popup saying "data wipe complete"

How to create account for Android Market?

Ok so I just got my Milestone rooted yesterday and installed iceandfire custom rom on it.
After doing so, I found out that there's no Android Market app installed on it. After a quick Google search, it seems there is no official download link for the app, and that it only comes pre-installed on certain devices, not all of them.
Anyway, I did some search and found that I can easily install it by just downloading the .apk file and use Astro (which comes pre-installed with iceandfire) to install it. I found the link here:
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/downloadinstall-new-android-market-apk-application-v-3-0-26/
So I downloaded it and it installed fine. I then launch it and it pops up a message saying I don't have an account and then I need to sign in or create one. I click on OK to create one but nothing pops up. I rebooted my phone and did it again, still the same thing. I'm not sure what the problem is, but I've tried many suggestions, mostly from here:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android Market/thread?tid=2c6343eb1c5c4e2e&hl=en
and none of it works. Can someone give me some help?

You need to first flash Google Apps (gapps) and you will get the Market and other Google services. You can create a gmail account on your computer and use that to sync with your phone.

Ya I already have a Gmail account, just couldn't figure out how to get it to work with Android Market.
Hmm I also did find some info on gapps, I downloaded it but couldn't install it using Astro. Do I put that in the updates folder, the same as where I put the custom rom, and then apply the update? Would I have to remove the custom rom first to prevent it from flashing my phone again?
YOU HAVE TO FLASH GAPPS !!!
Do it like you flashed Ice and Fire and any other MOD in OR !!
Some times it's very important to READ a Thread and don't only search for Downloadlinks.
Sent from my Milestone using Tapatalk
yup, got it flashed and installed successfully. Now I have another problem, I can't seem to get it to sign in? I get this message:
"cannot establish a reliable data connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your sim card may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues call customer care"
At first I thought it's probably my connection, so I tried using 3G instead of WIFI, but still the same thing. I then tried to create an account but it gave me the same error, so I can't create or sign in at all.
I did a quick search and people have said it could be that the SIM card or your service provider doesn't support it or something. Which doesn't make sense as why would setting up an account like this be relevant to your service provider? It's just the same as setting up an exchange or email account on any device.......also, while I was still using Windows Mobile on my Xperia X1 or HTC Touch Pro, I was able to install Android on it and went through the same setup process and got it working properly. So I don't think it's gotta do with the SIM card....

Play Store V3.7.13

Any one in here having issues with this version? This one is making me nuts!
It downloads but does not install apps, it stays stuck at downloading, I have done all possible way to fix but no success. i have cleared chache, uninstall update blah, even went to the extreme of wiping my whole phone starting from scratch thinking it was my damn phone still it does not work.
Anyone having same issues? or know a work around?
When I install old version it updates automatically to the new one....
Yeah i'm having the exact same problem.
Using the official XXKPU firmware btw.
try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1744264
anyway, i have the same problem
I started having the same problem today.
Go to Applications and choose Google Play Store. Clear the App data and uninstall updates (since it's a system app)
Then start the app, let it update and it's working again! (at least that's what did it for me)
I have ics and i have no problems, maybe we must to install ics

Freezing market updater with TB works up to now.
Hmmm...looks like freezing and even uninstalling market updater still doesn't stop it from updating.
When't back to market 2.2.7.

Seriously thinking of going back to 4.2.2
This hangouts app is terrible compared to gTalk. Is there any way I can install it on 4.3 without having to get root?
I am interested in this as well. My wife hates hangouts and her GNex is not rooted.

Google Talk from 4.2.2 can not be installed any more
First thing that I tried after updating my Nexus to JB 4.3 was to remove Hangouts and install back Google Talk from JB 4.2.2 but with no success. Application can not be installed any more. If anyone find solution for reverting back to Google Talk on JB 4.3 please let us to know. Hangouts are really terrible

Same issue. Any way to get google talk on 4.3?
I'm in the same boat. Don't wanna root the device, but don't want to stick with this ugly Hangouts either.
Anyone got a link to working Talk.apk for 4.3?
I uninstalled Hangouts.apk using Root Explorer (EStrongs), then I copied Talk.apk to /system/app
Set the permission to rw-r--r--
Reboot
It works, I got Talk notification ...
But, the Talk app is not shown in the app gallery
UPDATE:
Wiped Dalvik cache and Cache, doesn't help
Did all of that here too. Same results. It seems that Google is actively disallowing Talk.apk somehow.

Talk working
Guys im on stock 4.3 and rooted.
I was also playing around to get talk back... and i got it running "version 4.1.2-485486" even video call and sound is working just tested it.
what i did was download de gapps "gapps-jb-20121011-signed" deleted everything inside i dont want so just system\app and the lib files are in there.
Flashed it with twrp and it worked.
Got the zip here you can flash it but make a backup just in case.
Code:
http://speedy.sh/bcNdM/gapps-jb-20121011-signed-Talk-working.zip
And with titanium backup you can detach talk from the market so you wont get the update notification for hangouts.
please more details for newbies dear sir

Yep, that worked for me however i got the latest version of gapps for 4.2.2 instead of 4.1.2, slightly updated version of gtalk...dont know what the difference was.
Before i flashed gapps though i uninstalled hangouts with titanium...don't know if that was neccessary...also can't detach talk from the market without the paid version of titanium...maybe i should get that, i still have credit left from when i got my nexus 7 last year

If you've installed twrp, when the tablet is on put the zip file on the sd card, reboot into recovery (twrp), select install, navigate to the sdcard folder and select the gapps zip file. it should install.
i also go to advanced and fix permissions after, don't know if it's needed or not.
I also used titanium to uninstall hangouts first, again i dont know if i needed to do this.

[Q] HTC One Automatically Reboots "Process com.htc.htcdialer isn't responding"

[Q] HTC One Automatically Reboots "Process com.htc.htcdialer isn't responding"
I managed to "successfully" flash the ViperOne 6.1.0 ROM onto my Sprint HTC One (S-On.) However, I get a message saying "Process com.htc.htcdialer isn't responding. Do you want to close it?" This causes my phone to automatically reboot every couple of minutes, making it useless. I also noticed some thins don't work such as the Play Store and the search bar on the home screen. It is apparent that something is wrong with the flash (even though I tried to flash it twice after I saw this behaviour the first time and I did wipe both times.)
What is going on? How can I fix it? What causes it (what I really want to know is if I were to fix it and then attempt to install the ROM again, would it cause the issue again?)
Maybe flash the latest radio/baseband

Does that mean flash the firmware? If so, that won't be possible. My phone is S-On, and from what I've read it needs to be S-Off. I tried to make it S-Off a few minutes ago using Rumrunner but it failed (because my phone automatically rebooted during the process I assume.)
Plus, I can't access my phone's storage via my computer; it doesn't seem to mount properly. Wouldn't matter if it did anyways, as it disconnects after a minutes anyways. I was hoping I could just install the stock ROM and leave this stuff alone for now.
I should mention that this is the first time I've ever tried to flash a custom ROM or really do anything "advanced" with an Android phone. I didn't expect to run into so many bloody problems. What a nightmare.

Does that mean flash the firmware? If so, that won't be possible. My phone is S-On, and from what I've read it needs to be S-Off. I tried to make it S-Off a few minutes ago using Rumrunner but it failed (because my phone automatically rebooted during the process I assume.)

You can flash the radio from recovery.
Since you can't connect to PC while booted to rom boot to recovery and type
Code:
adb push filename.zip /sdcard/
When it's on your phone just choose it and flash once it's done flashing wipe cache and dalvik cache and you should be good

Okay, I flashed the latest radio. So far it hasn't said anything about the dialer crashing and when I open it, it actually works. However, the play store and search bar (and probably other things) still don't work. Something is still wrong.
For now I just want to make my phone work and I will try to go back to the stock ROM, though I still want to get the custom ROM working.

I flashed it doesn't seem like it's helping. The only problem that I am experiencing right now is that the play store doesn't work. It just shows a blank, white screen and seems to re-open over itself. I get a notification saying "An application requires installation of Google Play Services. Requested by com.google.android.gsf.login" When I click on the notification, it takes me to the play store and nothing happens (though one time the phone rebooted after I pressed it.) I found that I do have Google Play Services installed and that the notification is supposed to take me to the store page for the app, but it doesn't work.

Managed to remove to account but can't add it. When I try to sign in, it says "There was a problem communicating with Google servers. Try again later." I am sure I have an internet connection because I checked by opening the browser and doing a random Google search.

Connected via Wi-Fi. My phone says I am also connected to the network, but I believe that this is false because I have not activated my phone (unless activating it on the stock ROM transfers over to this one?) and in the rare occasion that I get ANY service in this part of my home, it'd be only one bar, not four.

if your not activated that's why the market nots working or google services.

No, it's not that. I tried to activate and it told me it was already activated.
By the way, I tried turning off 2-step verification and it still returns the same error.

I pushed the apk successfully. I tried to install it normally, and as stated, it didn't work. I did find the Sprint Zone app in my apps list afterwards though. When I try to go to System Updates in Settings, I get a message saying "Settings has stopped working." or something along those lines.

yeah, it's a known bug, that's why you have to use the sprint zone app, under my device to update the profile. how i got it was to go to titanium backup and found the sprint zone apk and restored app and data. but it may not work for you, it worked for me though.

Ah, okay. I thought I had to have the app installed. Didn't know I had to do it through the app rather than settings. Unfortunately, it didn't solve the Google log-in issue. I also noticed that now if I try to access YouTube, it will tell me that it needs Google Play Services and that I don't have it installed.

I posted earlier stating that I saw Google Play Services listed under my apps, and it was up-to-date as far as I know. It does ask me if I want to install it but then takes me to the Google account sign-in (which I can't sign into.) Clearing the data on every Google app I saw and rebooting did not resolve the sign-in issue.
I'm going to try to re-flash the ROM, fix, and radio because I managed to sign in during the set-up. I'll see if that clears up all of my problems.
EDIT: WORKED! Few minutes in and not a single problem so far. Signed into Google and the Play Store works. I may be speaking too soon though.
Thanks for the help!
Side question: How can I remove some apps such as HTC Apps and HTC Backup? I click on them and it says the apps are not installed but they still show up in the list of apps.
