[REQ] new apk/odex faq - Epic 4G General

the link that the faq points to that explains what all the apk's in the system file do is WAY out of date.. i guess it was for eclair. there seems to be a lot of new stuff
on a related note i can't seem to get rid of amazon mp3 in froyo. i've deleted it but its still there. sprint nav also seems to be there too although there's no icon for it. was also trying to figure out how to remove the tutorial widgets for android
anyway that's my req.

Installing Desire apps on Nexus.

Which ones can be installed exactly. I want to at least get the music app. Anyone know how? Kinda new to this.
U gone get roasted 4 posting this without searching. LOL. U can't use HTC apps or wigets without using a Desire ROM. It's been asked 100 times already
Well, you can use the odd thing. I have Teeter and the HTC IME keyboard rom the Desire ROM on my Nexus One. I'm sure there'll be a couple of other things too.
I hope you get banned too. Try a search!

really dude? really?
From what i understand most of the apps/widgets rely on the desire's framework, and since the nexus one's is different they will not work.
Learn to search. This thread should be locked now

Install the desire rom, use launcher2.apk and enjoy all worlds.
Most desire apps depend on the rosie framework so yanking them out won't work...
ps - where is the banning stick!?
Damn! You N1 owners are vicious. Come to the HD2 forums breezy, we'll just lock your thread after vaguely answering your question

[think tank] Youtube HD standard over 3G

I like watching youtube a ton, and lately I've grown tired while at work after every video switching back to HD.. does anyone know where to find the coding for the youtube apk and get it to do HD by default? Sorry if this has been covered.
-Charlie
I used the app that removes the clock from the status bar.
xUltimate-v1.2.4.zip
One of the options is a patch to make YouTube HD the default.

Well that depends on where you are, and they are rolling out more 3G coverage as we speak.
And if you see some of my posts, I'm pretty darned critical of AT&T, so no fanboyism here.

[Q] Is there any way to change the tray icons for the Epic 4G?

I found YouTube videos of a guy showing how to change the tray icons on the other Galaxy S phones, but it doesn't work for the Epic 4G.
I'd post the link, but since I'm a new user I can't post the link. Just search for 'change tray icons samsung' in YouTube to see it.
Is there any way to do this on the Epic? Thanks!
Disable touchwiz launcher. I can't post links either. Google "disable touchwiz launcher" and you will find it.

No problem. I haven't even gotten my epic yet but I've been reading up on stuff and its just something I picked up.
I remember reading somewhere that Skype will only work on galaxy s with 2.2. and that the "fix" for the epic and other galaxy s as far as skype and other apps like yahoo with video (the official yahoo w/video, not the mytouch4g rip... well thats official too but you know what i mean...) is froyo.
bla wrong forum *FAIL* and it won't let me delete

Gingerbread screen off animation

Has anyone been able to get the screen of animation from gingerbread yet?
I maintain that this was a hoax from somone pretending to have Gingerbread... Of course everybody shoots me down because they want that silly animation for some reason... Good luck finding it.
What was a hoax?

Dude in the vid strikes me as slightly odd.
This is the coolest update in Gingerbread imho Waiting for it...
The title op the OP should have a "?" or [q]
its no hoax. i played with the ns today and it really has it.

yeah plus the android central hands on today shows it several times too, so no it's no hoax. not sure how someone could have thought it was after all this time, and many videos of it
Hrm, well I stand corrected... What a stupid garish 'feature.'
For those wanting the screen off animation:
Get the system dump from the Nexus S section.
Open it in WinRAR.
Go to system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/anim
Copy the 74 xmls somewhere on your Desktop.
Go to the same location on whatever ROM/Theme you're using and replace the files.
Flash it in recovery.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for your help. But that didnt make any difference for me...
Pretty sure there on the boot.img and after flashed they are in /sys/power lol
I'm only able to see framework-res.apk in the system dump. Going to try and replace it and install on recovery. Made a backup of the other file, so we will see...
Couldn't find any XMLs because I can't open the APK as a folder in "view" on work laptop
just search for "xml transitions" the screen off is animation is in there just like gingerbread use metamorph, i have been using this on miui for weeks now..

Thanks buddy. You always seem to find these types of things for us.
I'm guessing installation is just like with any other .apk.

Yep.
Note: Some things will not work, since our phones do not have Touchwiz, you can't for example say "memo hi" and expect it to do anything but force close. It does however display information very nice and organized. ex: Whats the weather like today?
Also updated OP with a new thread with more apps.
I wasn't able to get any of the other apps from that link to work. Did you have any luck?
Hey X might want to put something in OP about these being for ICS. I've been testing Moped's 2.2 and they aren't working. I went to the 2nd link you posted and he says these are for ICS only. Just to save you some trouble when people start asking/telling that these aren't working.
any idea on how to install the apps. do we put the odex files in the system/apps folder or data/apps with the apps? also S voice is tough to get cause I only have 14 mbs left in system memory and the apk is close to 30.
Awesome. I'm in love with it lol
