Looking for LG stock calendar app - LG V20 Questions & Answers

Does anyone have the stock LG calendar app working on an LS997 variant? I can install the app fine, but it crashes upon start. It would be really nice to have since I like how it shows the actual date on the icon.

It's the last of the stock apps I'd *really* like to get working on the V20. Messages, email (not exchange tho, boo), gallery and music all work for me, so it would be nice...
Thanks!

It's part of the LS997 ROM released by Team DevDigitel. I should be able to get an APK for you but it's probably just as easy to extract it from the ROM. With LG stock apk's YMMV.
Sent from my LG-LS997 using XDA Labs

I know this apk works since I just pulled it from a ROM that has it included and it was working with the ROM. There must be some sort of dependency that is keeping it from running. I'm going to see if I can do some reverse engineering on it to find out what that dependency is. If anyone can save me a step, I'd be happy to hear what that dependency is!

Did you ever figure this out because I would like to do this myself. Also, you mentioned you had the stock messaging app working. Would you mind sharing the apk and any special instructions not covered by this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/themes/stock-music-app-to-att-version-t3552963
Also, please share the calendar apk as well even though it hasn't worked for you. Maybe I'll have better luck.

Just saw this--I posted links to all of the working LG apps for LS997 unrooted phones somewhere. Once I find them, I'll link to it here.
UPDATE: Messaging App https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8dcSlY-Ip1-NmZfVmRrOXczUWc
Calendar App https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8dcSlY-Ip1-RUViZzJsNkJUMVU
Let me know if you get Calendar working!
UPDATE 2: I couldn't get the Messaging app to work this time. Not sure if it has anything to do with updating from ZV5 to ZV6...or maybe just that I'm no longer rooted?

I was able to get them installed but unfortunately both crash on launch. Thanks anyway. Maybe somebody else will get it to work and share their process here.
<RANT>I just don't understand why a service provider would choose to remove these apps in the first place. If not for the Google Voice integration I would have ditched Sprint years ago.</RANT>

Installed Calendar and it's working fine for me.

You're not on Sprint (lucky you). For some dumb reason, hardly any of the STOCK LG APPS work on an LG PHONE. Makes perfect sense. I understand the desire for the carrier to make the phone "theirs" or to try to go with a more "vanilla Google" experience, but if I want to install LG apps on an LG phone, that should not be more difficult than rocket surgery.
My turn to rant >>> Unfortunately Sprint has the best coverage where I live and their prices are much better than Verizon's. Next time I'll just get an unlocked device. I would love to just root the phone in order to run stock apps, as I had before, but everytime I do there seems to be a malfunction and my phone ends up bricked (not from installing incompatible ROMs or kernels, I think I just flash the phone too many times?). Not to mention Sprint (and AT&T) has conveniently decided to not make the KDZ/TOT files available to the public. Let's not even mention the ridiculous static boot screen...

Someone in another thread suggested it might be a missing framework. I don't know enough about mobile development to be able to say that he was on the right path or not, but it seems logical to me. It's probably something buried deep in the system that would only be accessible by having root permissions.
I do wonder about the ability to achieve this through a terminal app and changing some permissions as the SystemUI Tuner app does in order to change status bar icons without root. Wish someone would work on that, or I wish I had enough knowledge to do so myself... oh well.

Yeah neither of the apps will work on non rooted phones... You can't add the other files to system without it.... And to be honest the Android messaging app sprint includes is better then the stock lg one...

Serious question: how does the method used by SystemUI Tuner work without root, and why wouldn't this method work for non-rooted phones and stock apps? If you're not familiar, the app requires non-rooted phones to use ADB to send a shell command 'pm grant com.xxx.xxx android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS' and 'android.permission.DUMP'. Perhaps there is code in the app itself to trick the system into thinking it has root using these commands?? You would know better than me...
I'm waving the white flag on this, however I am curious to know how that works. I might consider another carrier in the future however. Preferrably one that doesn't cripple stock apps.

Hulu on Vibrant (Froyo)

It's been a while since I've seen a definitive thread on Hulu and galaxy s.
Here's a good thread from the fascinate with clockworkmod zip and a .apk install. Works just fine on the Vibrant, sometimes you have to close the background process of the hulu app.
Hulu streams quite smoothly on the vibrant too!

What he means is data throttle. All the wonderful sim-lock carriers in the US is capped at 5gb of data. If you exceed 5gb, then you'll be throttled slower than dialup. Technically its unlimited, but throttled.

What I don't get is it is in Hulu's best interests to have Huly playing (their free version) on any and every mobile device out there. Its the market foot print for their advertising. Their marketing dept needs to go back to school!

Oh yeah I forgot about that... that is pretty dumb. 5GB in one month is a lot of usage though. I've never even come close to that, but that's not to say I wouldn't with Hulu. Giving it a try though.

It's the networks (crying about DRM) who are holding it up, not Hulu.
Hulu did announce last month official support for Android is coming soon.
Hulu's marketing team understands that just fine. The people who don't are the old school content companies that own it(Comcast/NBC, Disney/ABC, News Corp, etc.). They still think that by locking down their content, it will force people to keep paying out the arse for it, rather than just pushing more people away.
Wait so is hulu free for vibrant?

Thier up-coming free android app will be (i assume) for their Hulu+ line up. Which is their paid $7.99/mo service. I will also assume that Hule has no desire to reslease their free website for the Android browser to watch shows, because they see Google TV as a competitor not a platform. Yet, I built my windows box hooked to my hi-def TV and can watch streaming Hulu content all day long through my windows box (i cut my cable about a year ago). Microsoft is not pay Hulu one nickle, but Google TV (android) is seen as a competitor!
To answer you question, NO - Hulu is not free on your android device, unless you can find a hack to watch it.

[News] Google will remotly install new code

are you confortable with that?
When 21 rogue apps started siphoning off identifying information from Android phones and installing security holes, Google yanked the lot from Android Market, and called the authorities to boot. But what of the 50,000 copies already downloaded by unwitting users? That's what Google's dealing with this week, by utilizing Android's remote kill switch to delete them over the air.
But that's not all, because this time the company isn't just removing offending packages, but also installing new code. The "Android Market Security Tool March 2011" will be remotely added to affected handsets to undo the exploit and keep it from sending your data out, as well as make you wonder just how much remote control Google has over our phones. Yes, we welcome our new Search Engine overlords and all that, so long as they've got our best interests at heart, but there's a certain irony in Google removing a backdoor exploit by using a backdoor exploit of its own -- even one that (in this case) will email you to report what it's done.

Im sure if you were on the receiving end with a malware infested phone you'd be thanking google for remotely fixing your phone, i guess only when they start abusing that power will people get annoyed and demand change.
I guess that the end justifies the means in this case...
Yeh I'm fine with that. I doubt Google will abuse this feature- look at the negative backlash that Amazon had for remotely deleting from customers Kindles.

I'm not quite sure about that!, but well i'm probably too much old school, maybe a bit paranoid or conservative =).
The "For your own good", never sound well to my hears, anyway don't be surprise if Microsoft start doing that, one day, on your personal desktop/laptop.
Starting slow by removing trojan apps and one day, choosing what you have to use or not without your consentment?...not really GNU/GPL.
Google already know, who you are, which face you have (ty the front camera ^^), who are your friend, where you live, who you call, your habits etc... a way to much in one hand.
"Don't be Evil" they said (i'm still laughing on that)
I don't see anything wrong with this, and I think if Google ever decides to use this function for 'evil' it will get so much bad rep, that it's just not worth it.
How do you know they see all those things? Android is open source, and I doubt the Android-versions that is sent to the OEM's has these spy-code inside. Don't think they would agree with that, because of potential lawsuits and problems, e.g. EU-related problems.
I don't mind at all.. They have the power on Chrome too, and they never abuse it. I trust Google, I just woudn't trust Apple.
OP, Google already have your gmail, contacts, coordinates, search history, credit card number, and God only knows what else. This tiny little thingie won't change anything. However, they'd better remotely install Gingerbread on my phone, lol.

I'm afraid by what i see here (but i don't blame anyone), everyone agree...well, maybe a different generation or perhaps my job force me to be more sensitive to that kind of things...who now
Unrealwolf, most of my data are fake: google account, no contact, neither sync, and no way i'll give my credit card number/real name or more.
But hey let's see how it'll go (the result in a couple of years will not be a surprise for me)
Microsoft did install a 'Malicious Software Removel Tool'. And have updates that are installed silently (but that happens very rarely).
And through the normal update process they can install everything they want.
personal info already leak out to everywhere since you born, do you have a mobile, in a school, bank account, visa,diving license, etc... just live with it.

Is it really the first time that Google installed things remotely? At least they updated apps without interaction on my mobile. And these updates can contain any code they want. So who saves you from Trojans that come inside, say, Maps? Also, some devs showed that apps can install other apps without the user even notices that (I think there was a malicious angry birds app)

Not too comfortable with this because if google can do it even a hacker can do it.
Also I noticed that after I did a search for CMS in google, the next day I got email from a CMS vendor, so think about it, very weird to the say the least. This has happened many times.

And Elvis is still alive...
Google has already an app with root and net access on the phone: the Market (or the services behind). Otherwise they could not install or uninstall anything on the phone. And yes, market is able to install without notifying the user. But if they're doing this well and encrypt the communication, no hacker should be able to use this feature to break into your phone.

nexus 7 with ics and no apps

Okay so I've tried searching all over the place for this but can't find anyone with the same trouble I'm having.
The problem is my nexus 7 has basically everything missing, every google app isn't there, play store, gmail, you tube etc. all missing.
There was no sign up process when i booted up, and it's running ics version 4.0.3. Instead of jelly bean.
The only thing i can do is browse Web pages.
There also a tab in settings called developer options.
Any ideas? I'm wondering if i got a developer version by mistake?
i'm basically missing everything and can't do much at all with it.
Thanks, Matt
Strange maybe they sent you a test device on accident. I'd just flash the stock software that Google released.

They might have shipped a pre-production model by mistake, or something similar.
If you're used to rooting Android, you can grab the stock images here: http://goo.gl/p0W2s. Otherwise, just bring it to wherever you bought it and get a replacement.
There are factory images for the device available from Google that can return you to a shipping Jelly Bean build. See here:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
It's a fairly simple process, but it does require some basic setup on your desktop computer. You'll need the ability to use fastboot. If you're not up for that the easiest thing to do would be to just exchange the unit.
Edit - identical advice as above. Great minds think alike
Thanks for the replies, I'll have to try and flash the firmware when I get home tomorrow.
I'll let you know if I bork it up
Wonder if there's any hardware difference between this and the retail versions, could be worth something.

Really just return it. That's the strangest screw-up I've seen in a while. Unless time is a factor, exchange it. There may be issues with the hardware in a test device, so I would just play it safe (even though fastboot is super easy and fast). And, I'm guessing this is your first Android device, so please don't let this ruin your experience.
ICS runs in full tablet mode on the nexus 7? And somehow doesn't cut off words in the settings menu like the tablet mode hacks for JB?
That's either interesting or fishy

Are all Nexus 7s model number "me370t"? If not, then you have the MeMO 370T firmware, which was the base for Nexus 7.
Sell it and buy a new one lol
The developer options is nothing special... Thats been there since ICS. It's supposed to be there.
But I've seen a few other reports around here that also have that Asus firmware loaded on them. Not sure if they were able to get the stock loaded onto it, or if they swapped out for another one.
Let me guess, you had a pretty tree set as your background image on first boot up?
This kinda sucks for you but I think its really cool at the same time haha. Its cool how it says me370t for the model since the n7 is basically the same device minus a stylus built in

before you take that back let the devs get a dump of that image it could potentially have something interesting in the software of firmware.

Yeah I am thinking that I'm going to have too, and it's my third Android device, I've got an SGS that's rooted with a custom rom, a Galaxy Note and now this tablet. I've never had problems with messing with software on a device before, but for some reason fastboot just wont play ball on this device

ICS runs in full tablet mode on the nexus 7? And somehow doesn't cut off words in the settings menu like the tablet mode hacks for JB?
That's either interesting or fishy

I don't know what you're talking about as this is the first tablet I've ever owned but I think fishy or interesting isn't the word I would use, annoying as hell more like lol

Are all Nexus 7s model number "me370t"? If not, then you have the MeMO 370T firmware, which was the base for Nexus 7.

The developer options is nothing special... Thats been there since ICS. It's supposed to be there.
But I've seen a few other reports around here that also have that Asus firmware loaded on them. Not sure if they were able to get the stock loaded onto it, or if they swapped out for another one.
Let me guess, you had a pretty tree set as your background image on first boot up?

This kinda sucks for you but I think its really cool at the same time haha. Its cool how it says me370t for the model since the n7 is basically the same device minus a stylus built in

before you take that back let the devs get a dump of that image it could potentially have something interesting in the software of firmware.

Yeah I will give it a go one day this week, I've had enough of messing with it trying to make it work for now, it's doing my head in haha
I agree, you should (must) dump the ROM and put it up for devs to look at. It's a shame you had your nexus experience marred by thus, but our devs can surely find some interesting things in the ICS build(ironically, this us how the touchpad got android, someone got one that shipped with GB, and the community was lucky enough to get to him before he wiped it).

[Q] New Hangouts app

I was wondering if anyone had tried yet. Mine still shows up as talk, but when I go to the play store it says I have hangouts installed and when i open it from the play store it just opens talk. Since talk came as a system app on the phone does it not get swapped out for hangouts?
Yeah, same here. I wouldn't worry about it though, I'm sure it'll be fixed quite soon.

They updated it today. But I just went in and in uninstalled talk from system (im rooted) and installed hangouts from Play store. So far I like it. Can't wait untill it has sms integration which they said is coming soon

Talk got replaced by Hangouts for me. I did push it from the Play Store from my desktop though. You can try to backup Talk, uninstall it, then install Hangouts. That worked for me also. You're not missing much though. The big news is that it's available for iOS.

I ended up downloading it from aptoide. It upgraded itself after that.

So maybe no SMS for Hangouts.

Check out the permissions for Hangouts, it already includes sending and receiving SMS and MMS. In addition there was a post by a Google employee (don't recall where, but I read it earlier today) saying that it will be coming soon as it's one of the most requested features.

You can invite friends through SMS. I quoted that Google employee's follow up saying that it was a mistake.

it is still not working, it says "your device already has this item installed"
I got the update this morning....I have JB 4.1 on my phone.....it replaced the talk app but the messenger+ from google plus still persists.......
I didnt really like the hangouts app btw....talk was pretty cool...
Key there is to open the link via browser. Even if you have Google Talk, you can install Google Hangouts over it.

[APP] ATT Visual Voicemail (Newest Version and previous)

I pulled the most recent AT&T Visual Voicemail APK and wanted to put it in a thread for other members to find easily. I've uploaded the newest apk file (3.1.3.53) as well as previous versions that I had. I'll try to always post the latest version when I see it's been updated. If someone notices it's been updated let me know and I can pull the apk.
Update Feb 06, 2015 - Added newest apk build 3.1.3.53

Thanks for posting these! I hate how AT&T has made VVM so difficult to get for the Nexus 5, which it works with perfectly fine. I used to use an apk downloader java app but for some reason, it won't download the latest 2.9.3.14 version, so I went searching xda knowing someone else must have figured out how to get it. So cheers, my friend! :good:

Glad I could help! My wife has a Moto X so I'm able to pull the apk from her phone whenever I see an update. Thanks for the comment! :thumbup:
Thank you so much.

Does this only work on a specific type of plan? If I try this on my N5 that I'm not sure has a visual voicemail plan, will I automatically get charged?

According to the agreement after configuring the app, this is a free service with no recurring fees app. You can confirm that by installing the app yourself.

I've used the AT&T Visual Voicemail app with plans including the traditional post-paid plans, as well as the pre-paid GoPhone plans, and I've never had any additional charges occur because of using it. :good:

I'll check and pull it if it's there. Will see if I can get this up tonight.
Play Store says the app was updated on Oct 29 but the version still shows 2.9.3.14. I'll keep my eye out this week and see if the version number changes.
Thank you!

Finally saw the latest update come across the play store. New build number is 2.10.1.27. APK is pulled, I'll update OP with it.
Thanks for keeping up with this! Hopefully one day at&t will wake up and make it available to all of us.

Worked perfectly on my nexus 6. Thanks so much for keeping this updated. I can't believe the play store vv is incompatible with the nexus 6 I bought from Motorola since they are selling it in their stores. Anyway, I'll bookmark this thread. Thanks again bro!

With the 2.10.1.27 build, speech-to-text is working again! Just tick the box in VVM settings, and reboot. Works better than it used to, from my limited use so far today!
Yep, much better than in the past. I'm still getting some FCs when initially opening the app but overall it works.

I can not get any version of this to work on my Nexus 6. I tried every single one of them from the original post. Tried both on and off wireless.
Called AT&T and verified that VVM had not been shut off on my account when I transferred from my Sammy Galaxy S3 to my Nexus 6 too.
This is all I get. Thoughts?

I just got the AT&T Nexus 6, I side-loaded your newest apk 2.10.1.27 and It works fine! Thank You!
You people are making me want to cry. Still a no go on my N6.
That's it I'm going to wipe the whole phone and start over.
