I am looking for someone that can mod the stock or Samsung email app in order to use the new card UI that Google is now using. Similar to what Gmail is using now, as well as many others.
What I am looking for is for each email line to be a card, then when opening the email the header would be a card and the body would be a card.
PM me if you would like to work together on this. I can easily pass ideas or test the apk, but know nothing about programming so wouldn't be helpful with that part. If this can be done by just theming let me know, as I can do a little of that and would love to help there too.
I personally think this is how the email app should look in the future...and seeing as how Google is beta testing a new email app, maybe it will be. But until then I would like to get started.
Thanks in advance.

Ok so I modified the the none bubble Mms.apk for froyo to allow 5mb and high quality (1920x2560) transfers. I'm able to send them fine and I know this cause my friend with an iphone can get them as I sent them.
however if she sends me a pic, my epic will download the high quality pic (700kb), but when I save it to the memory card its only (93kb) and 640x480...
Anyone know why this is?
Is it just a save issue or is the phone not really downloading the full 700kb it says it is?
Thanks...
EDIT:
never mind, I figured it out

It might be nice to say what you did in case someone else has this issue and comes upon your post in search.
Hey would you mind posting the working version.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Ok basically it was a settings issue within the app itself...
you need to go into the Mms settings and under "Custom User-Agent" select "Custom" then enter any name you want for the custom user agent... You might need to restart the messaging app, but I tested it and was able to save at full 2560x1920 ...
I'm going to post the modded Mms as an update.zip in case anyone wants to use it...
It's only been tested on froyo.
you might need to clear the messaging data...
settings>applications>manage applications>All>messaging>clear data
Would u be able to do something lik thi with the bubble version ms.apk of froyo?? If so would it be too much to trouble you for that?

I know there is a bubble one with a 5MB limit somewhere on these forums, but I haven't tested it... ill see what I can do
I have rooted my GF's Nook Color with the last stable CM7 root, it is an internal (emmc) root.
I downloaded a few apps I know she'll want, one of which being a document editor for her book, and other documents. Most of which are in .doc and .docx format. The main app I found to be most user friendly, and most like Microsoft Word, was Kingsoft Office app. Well about halfway into reading a document, maybe 2-5 mins after opening the app, it will say the application needs to force close. I have run Fix Permissions in Rom Manager, but to no avail.
I am also having an issue setting wallpapers. I have followed several guides, and I believe my images are sized correctly. But when I long press the screen and go to set a wallpaper, I go to my gallery and select my picture and it brings me to a crop screen. No matter how I crop it, which I cant do a full crop where I can see the full image, I cant get the image to show up correctly. I've read multiple guides on how to change the wallpaper, but so far nothing is working. I do not know which launcher I am using, I guess I'm on whatever comes with the latest CM7. Id like to stick with whatever i'm using because so far It seems to have the best shortcut position and grid on the screen.
Any help and advice for these issues would be greatly appreciated. I have yet to receive help from some other posts on other sites, so I'm hoping to get some here.
Thank you in advance for your time.
I love that I have posted two threads here and not a single person has helped, yet I've been told this is the best and most active forum to get help on for these issues. What a load of crock. Searching through multiple threads with similar issues yet no solutions does not help me. I could really use some guidance here people.
Can't help with Kingsoft since I don't use it. Recommend QuickPic for setting correct wallpaper size on NC.

Thankyou for helping with what you could! I appreciate it. I will check out QuickPic.
Hopefully someone can help with the Kingsoft force closing, or recommend another app. thanks again!
If you're willing to look at other word processing applications, either QuickOffice or DocumentsToGo are good but pricy.

Hello everyone,
I have had the Nexus 4 for a few months and am for the most part happy with it. I am not a power user by any means,but the pure android experience has been very helpful to me. I just started a new career which required a lot of traveling to different locations and scheduling and the calendar and navigation have been like a godsend for me. The notetaking apps like keep are great too. Like having your own personal assistant.
There are few things I still struggle with, particually on the phone end. I tranferred my contacts over from a blackberry, I think google did this automatically. It takes me a while to scroll down to a contact(voice recog does not work great for names) - is there a "better" way to set-up your contacts for easier acess or to enhance voice dialing? I feel it takes me much longer to find a contact than to set the navigation system to a new location. Anyone find a good solution for this?
Thanks,
Rick
Hello... I'm new here too... After using a blackberry I missed the name search here on Nexus.. The stock dialer in my opinion is ****.. Try exdialer..
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
Start dialing the contact name on the dial pad, this might only be a feature on custom ROMs though. If you drag the list on the right, it should scroll faster, going by letter instead of one contact at a time. This should work on stock.
You can search for a contact. Also you can add favorites for faster access to them

What he said. You can search for a contact in the Phone app by name.
Hello friends, as you know facebook is rolling a new Layout for they'r official APP.
I hear it is server side, so as long you have Android 4.x, you can roll back older instalation, uninstall and download the older FB APP APK, you can do all that and the new Layout still will be present.
The Layout is fine exept for one small but big issue.
At the buttons on top (Feed, Notifications, Friends Request) it dont display the Messages button.
I dont use FB chat, it is aways off and now exept for the push notifications i cant see if i have new messages on the APP, i need to check then via the options menu.
That is very anoyng for my use and a very deal breaker.
I tryed 3rd party APPs but none seens nice too.
Is there a way (as it seen to be server side) to roll back for the older layout, or add the stupid messages button??
Thanks for all, here what i mean:
It is not an issue for this device... We are not developers, so maybe you could ask for an explanation in the comments of the Facebook app in Google play..

Thanks Pall as i seen a picture with the message icon i thot it was the device due to lower resolution.
Thanks for the reply.
We all know that HTC launched the Dot View Case along with the HTC One M8 which impressed a quiet a lot of us. But one of the drawbacks it had was the lack of support for apps other than the system apps.
Also recently Shen posted a tweet showing some progress in the right direction which definitely brought light to our hopes.
So I came across this idea which will help speed this up and could be ready in a few weeks.
My idea is to make use of an app called Dynamic Notifications which is available in the Play Store. For those who don't know, it like the Active Notification found on the Moto X.
So what we can do is replace the icons in the app with the ones similar to the Dot View icons. I have already ripped apart the Dot View App to get my hands on the font used which I have attached below. So using this font we can simple create icons like the one I have attached.
I know it would be inappropriate to modify someone else's work but we could take the permission of the developer and if possible the developer of the app could himself take this project up.
I already tried this but I am kind of novice in app modding and keep getting installation errors.
The icon which I make has white font with transparent background so you might not see the thumbnail but click on it to view it.

did you sign the app? that could explain the installation errors
Hi, Of interest if you install NOLed notifications app from market - which should show flashing squares on screen in stead of LED - designed for phones with no LED, but cool with this case as you should see different colours for each app - only odd side effect - it flashes time and weather when you have notifications - not its own squares - would be good if someone could code something without this side affect.

I used APK Manager to decompile and then recompile the .apk file. Do you know of a better way to do the same ?

Hey,
I've been trying to do the same thing. I also got stuck at resigning the app.
I'm trying to replace HTC voice assist with Google now.
The logcats implied that I needes to be signed with HTCs certificates. Does that make sense?
Any suggestions?
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk
Finally I was able to over come the signing problem and could get the app to install. The default size of the images used in the app was 216 X 216 which according to me was very small and the icon displayed is as shown in attachment 1.
After which i increased the size to 400 X 400 but sadly the image is now being chopped off from the sides.
This according to me is because of the image size set in the app which I don't know how to edit.
If it would be very kind if someone could help / guide me with this one.
I have also attached the .apk file if anyone is interested in looking into it

You used this - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmail.heagoo.apkeditor ?
It seems that you can only replace the resources with this but now edit the actual code. Is that true or did I miss something?

Yes, its the same app.
Initially I thought the process will be as easy as replacing the images but now when I see, I need to edit the code to resize the images for which I will have to use the traditional methods like APK Manager.
But editing the code is beyond the scope of my knowledge and so will be looking forward to others.
I'm comfortable editing the code, I'm just lost as to how I repackage and replace the old apk.
Maybe if you find anything on that you can post it here and we can get to work on it together...
Thx

When I make a apk into a signed zip I use this:

Don't know if it is any relevance to this thread but it's worth a try.

Awesome work my friend !
Also thank you for creating the 3 Finger Screen Lock Mod :laugh:
But wouldn't it be possible to achieve this without the need to root ? For example by modifying the Dot View App ?
