Has anyone installed the nexus one browser, contacts, calendar, and launcher on their tablet? Basically, I hate all of the Samsung Apps and want a plain froyo rom. I'm willing to install packages from my nexus one until I find the time to build one...

You should be able. I installed the calculator apk from my nexus one into my tab, cause the euro Rom didn't come with one installed, and it works without an issue.

I've been wondering the exact same thing (minus the launcher - I'm using adw since that's what comes in CM for my N1). Since it's barely been a week since purchase, I'm still a little afraid to start pulling apks over to try it out.
I tried, but I get a "replacing system package" warning, then the install fails. I tried this with my tab rooted and unroored

I think the nexus stock browser is a lot faster and more stable then the stock browser on the tab. I tried pushing over the browser.API from the nexus. But unfortunately everytime I start the browser it immediately closes. I just wanna try it out and see ignite any better.
Bump..

I am using ADW Launcher instead of Samsung Launcher and DialerOne for the dialer but I am missing the simple calculator that was on my CM 6 Nexus One.
Samsung apps are just ugly.
Not 100% sure, but some apps are dependent on the framework of the rom. You can't simply start swapping things out. Contacts and dialer are one of those things. A lot of applications rely on other things that's why they won't work. Once someone cooks up an AOSP rom for us then we can start tinkering in the world of Vanilla...
I'll gladly support someone porting over Cyanogen mod.
Youlu address book, miren browser, launcher pro, half way there already!
I have installed Calculator.apk from CyanogenMod 6.0, it works fine.
I tried to install Music.apk from CM 6.0 but it is blocked by crappy Samsung's MusicPlayer.apk. So I used TitaniumBackup to remove MusicPlayer. Then after reboot it still did not like it, because it seems Music.apk contains native code. So I tried Music.apk from beta CM 6.1 for Galaxy S and it installed just fine. Unfortunately it doesn't show music controls on the lockscreen so it must be a function of the lockscreen. So it is not better than Music Mod.
I would recommend everyone looking for vanilla music app to use Music Mod from the market.
Does anyone know where I can get the notes widget for sense my 4.0 rom. It comes with notes preinstalled but lacks the widget. I really really want it and I have looked everywhere and I can't find it. I have tried taking the apk from other roms but it says application not installed when I try to install it.

From what I saw, Sense 4.0A's Notes is a wrapper of Evernote (shown in the Account section as Evernote for HTC Sense,) but apparently incomplete as it lags behind the official Evernote app in terms of features, one of them is the lack of widget (Evernote has a dedicated widget app in Google Play, but it works with the official app only.) Different ROMs' apks probably based on different versions of Notes, thus they will not work in your ROM.
either stocks weight ,i think your ROM is sense4a port one V.if you really want notes weight,you can flash sense 3.6

Its beta and is available from several forums. The file name is "Samsung Internet-5.2.02-94.apk". I tried a previous beta before upgrading and factory resetting. It is wonderful and supports 5 adblocking extensions all at once to be activated. I want it again but do not want to install a apk from a forum(not trusted like this one is) and risk having my device compromised. How do you get beta updates to samsung apps? I only use their browser now(no more chrome or firefox) since the addition of lastpass that logs me in to everything just by my fingerprint.

I've never had trouble with apkmirror.
I took the plunge and downloaded it anyway. Soo much better being able to use unicorn and disconnect ad blocker at the same time not a massive difference, but at least I do not have to install firefox with ublock and give up my samsung pass.

How do you get that?
Name says it all. Need inputs from owners of this device if Asus apps meant for other ZenFones work on this ROM without any porting? May need to download using Yalp store, since the play store may not permit such download with the disclaimer "this app is incompatible with your device" (sheesh!).
Basically hate Google integration and want to develop a noGapps Stock ROM, without Google apps and, possibly with Asus app alternatives (dialer, calendar, camera, clock, weather, etc)
I think ZenApps can't be porting here.
But maybe yes.
I'm own this device, running pure Android 8.1 without ZenApps. So, if you want Zen UI + ZenApps get other Zenfone device's, if you want pure Android Apps (Google) get it. Greetings

Most of the Asus Zenfone ZenUI apps are available on Google Play Store and you can download it from there. And in case you desperately need any app that is not listed on GPS then you can extract that apk from any Asus Zenfone stock ROM.
Can anybody post the links of playstore apps of ZenUi?
I need the launcher, dialer, contacts and messaging?
Could not find them in playstore

Some ZenUI apps actually depend on proprietary blobs that might or might not be compatible with this phone, and probably don't ship with the stock ROM.

Seems true. I have downloaded the following apk form apk mirror and installed them.
Zen launcher .. this is mainly for custom sorting of apps and creating folders which are not available in stock launcher.
Dialer and contacts
Quick memo
Clock
Weather
Sound Recorder
Calendar
Calculator and FM radio are already preloaded in the phone.
Everything installed without any errors. The following are the results.
Calendar always crashed and never worked.
Dialer and contacts did not crash but just not working. Nothing happens if i dial a number from the dial pad or call a number from the contacts list. Except these two the other zenui apps installed are perfectly working fine including the launcher.
Can anybody help me get t work the dialer and contacts please? I do not like the stock dialer and contacts apps.

Asus Mobile manager app doesn't work, everything is blocked on the manager app, no function loads. Doesn't support this mobile series/model, it's not compatible.
How I know? Bcoz I tried
Is there any way to install these apps into stock android by extracting the required zenui apps from zenfone 5 rom ,
I am installing ZenUI Launcher, Gallery and PixelMaster camera and it's working fine.

I tested it and the camera did not work. I'm using the "open camera" app right now.
Would it be that if I take the stock room zenfone 5 it works?
I just wanted to zenUI on my max pro m1
Hello.
I have a Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) and I use the Google Now Launcher. I rely on having the google app to the left of the main home screen for notifications about traffic, weather and news. I like having it there a lot. Today I noticed that it was no longer accessible from there.
I looked this up and it sounds like Google plan to discontinue the Google Now Launcher and replace it with the "Pixel Launcher". But naturally, my device is not supported by this new app.
I downloaded and installed this, and it seems like the Pixel Launcher (or something similar to it, nearly identical) works on my device now. It was very convenient to have because I do not want to Root my phone.
At first the side-panel Google app worked with this (bootleg?) Pixel Launcher, but after I was done customizing my home screens it stopped working. I checked all the options like "Google app to the left of main screen" and such things, and they didn't change anything. It only started working again when I re-booted the phone.
My question is: what made it stop? Can I still get the Google side-panel to open on the original Now launcher (with which I am more used)? I like the Pixel launcher but I prefer to use officially-supported apps so I can get updates for them, and I don't believe the one I downloaded (from the link above) will get any updates.
Any help would be appreciated.
Just downgrade to the old Google Now Launcher
