[Q] Can I have stock apps on custom ROM? - XPERIA X8 General

Hi. I just started playing with my X8 a couple of weeks ago. It's now rooted with xrecovery. I just tried several ROMs and I found out that all of them use the same messaging, dialer, contacts etc. apps.
My question: is there a way to use a custom ROM while having the stock 2.1 messaging, dialer, contacts etc. apps?
p.s. please don't suggest alternative apps on the market.
p.p.s. if this is not possible, please let me know so we can end this thread.
Thank you so much. Kudos to all the devs.

Stock ROM customizability

I recently got my Touch Pro 2, and love the device. However I'm still on T-Mobile 6.1 ROM, and waiting for their 6.5 update.
There are many custom tabs/screens for Manila on this forum. Is it possible to use them on this stock ROM? Or I must switch to a cooked one?
U going to have to swith to a custom rom. its best if you get your roms from thewingster.com
I guess flashing custom roms invalidates my warranty.
Thanks anyways, I might try it when I have a little more courage.
Don't listen to him, you don't need a custom ROM to customize TF3D. I use the stock ROM and I have switched wallpapers, clocks, taskbar icons, slider icons, lock screen and more. Tons of stuff you can do with stock ROM!
Here's an example:

EDIT: Just search a bit here and places like PPCGeeks etc, you can find tons of stuff. Most of the CABs from this forum (Rhodium > Rhodium themes, applications and software) work with the stock ROM. Just be sure to check which Manila / WM version they are made for. There are also many to be found in other categories here at XDA, and also you can google them.

Thanks a lot. That link looks very promising, I'll try it as soon as possible.
Ditto, I was going to say the same thing. It's not like your manila files are locked in stock ROMs. So you can manipulate them as you see fit.
You don't need to resort to flashing your ROM unless you want a complete different version of Manila.

(Q) Cynogenmod

Hi, i installed cynogenmod onto my phone the rom has everything i need.
Only thing which is really a letdown is the camera/Video recorder. (It seems to be very buggy)
Just wanted to know is thier any way i can edit the rom, so i can install the original htc Camer/Video recorder software?
thanks, any suggestions are much appreciated.
No, you cannot use htc apps on an aosp rom. can you just search before you post, they've been so many questions on this ==.
There are many alternatives, like camera 360.

[Q] What is this?

Hi People, i came with maybe a stupid question but i need to do it.
I currently running Racht's Floyo 0.10 and the rom is so stable and smooth but how everybody know there are some bugs in that rom some of them like 3.5mm Jack and video are useful to me so i decide to go back to a stock SE but there is a thing that is kind of boring in the SE stock Eclair and is the Contact, Dialer and other stuff related interface and with the Floyo 0.10 this part is so nice but i dont know how to call it if is an APK, and module ported to the rom or what.
So i like so much if you can tell me what it is and if i can install or use it in the Stock Eclair ROM
I leave some screenshots of what i'm talking about that i like so much in Floyo 0.10.
Thanks in advance
I believe that is just the stock Android dialer/contacts/etc. App. It may be possible to find them online and put them on your phone.
You should try this...X10 dialer for X8.
Thanks to you 2 for your answers I already found what is the name of the "app" is wycontacts froyo. But anyway i flash my phone with recent version of Racht's works.

SE apps

there are some apps that i quite like, i want to integrate them into the cm7 custom rom or racht's roms, how do i go about that??
Here you are... ALL the system apps from my X8 stock rom (i was just going to install a custom rom, nice idea to back up them).
Download: X8 All System Apps.zip (24.34MB from Mediafire)
So willthis give us the default X10 2.1 apps? I just flashed it via xRecovery and nothings changed
Thank you very!!! much you SAVED my Market and GTalk, you are GOD, man!!!!
