Port Calendar from Galaxy ROM Please!

I have tried all i know (which isn't a ton but im fairly well acquainted with android) to get it to work on other roms but it just wont, i mentioned something to thor about it and he mentioned api changes or something, but vache was able to port over the photo editor, i just really love the calendar on this rom because it also syncs with facebook which i have been unable to do with any other rom/calendar, please can someone help, please and thanks in advance

friendly advice
Asking for apps to be posted in forums is considered warez.
and nope im not trying to police the forum.
Good luck

By that logic, isn't every rom with a Samsung, Asus, or Motorola app warez too?

yes
Im just saying asking is what breaks the rules of xda.
anyway I was trying to be nice not criticize you.sorry

Electrodeath is correct.
If asking for the same app that is readily available via a rom is warez, then the entire ported rom is warez.
Period.

Dont think the OP asking any one to post APP. I think he/she simply asking if there is a way to do what he is trying to do. Or if someone can point in the direction that can lead to some answers.

Hi,
I've had a HTC Incredible S and just got a Google Nexus 4. This phone looks awesome already. I was wondering, what's the difference between 'Android Dev' and 'Original Android Dev'?
Thanks.

Welcome to the Nexus 4 section, @Incredible2011.
I have a little request in the beginning. Kindly, take your future questions to Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting.
Coming over to your query, here is the answer.
Android Development is a sub-section which comprises of ROMs/Kernels/Mods and tweaks which are not self-compiled or developed, or are usage of some other developer's work. It mostly contains Stock modified/tweaked ROM, Kernels and enormous minimal tweaks.
While, Original Development is a sub-section area where all the actual ROM/Kernel/Mod development goes. Everything that is worked out by the developer himself shall be posted there. You will find all the source compiled ROM/Kernels like CyanogenMod, ParanoidAndroid, AOKP, Franco's Kernel etc in this section.

Hi, I'm Memento and I am delighted to participate in this great community recognized internationally
Greetings from Spain :laugh:

Nexus 4 community is getting bigger each day

Its good there are so many new members, just wished people would read and search more themselves instead of asking/posting even the most basic things. Read the stickies and the OP`s of the kernel/rom you want to flash. None the less welcome you all

Thanks all for clearing that up and for the warm welcome. I hope to be helpful in any way I can and hope to learn from you all!

Spread the word!

Can some of our Asian friends like @GTARaja spread the kernel in Indian and Chinese forums? There is way more people and skilled developers with this phone there than anywhere in the world, wich I think do not have the kernel yet.
Maybe you @burakgon can post it on Donanim forum as well? Or anyone else that can write in Turkish.
This would be a great help to every GiONEE E7 owner. Thanks in advance!

Hello friend ive contacted few devs from nexus 5 forums and other to build a custom rom for us...just waiting for their reply..

Thanks GTARaja. Hope now there is no stopping for our device development! I hope once burakgon posts flash tools, it would be as easy as pie to flash custom ROMs without fearing of how to bring device back to life or stock if the need arises.
I really wonder why mobile tech sites like GSMArena or others not posting much about Gionee phones? They doing that with other new vendors like Oppo, OnePlus etc. but not Gionee in particular. Hope they can post this news for maximum exposure to most readers and devs.

yeah gionee seems a newbie in mobile market and few ppl are interested in this brand..as gsmarena focuses on post which most ppl like..they only post about other devices...may be some day they will realize about gionee devices

I don't have this variant but, your best bet is to post this question within that thread for developer or member guidance with your issue.
Typically support is offered by developers via the development thread or, in some cases, a separate Q&A thread that's specific for that development.
If a Q&A thread existed, most of the time, it's announced on the OP or the following post #2 of said development thread.
Good Luck!

Fingerprint doesn't work on S8/ Note 8 ROMs. This includes all ROMs based on the new Samsung Experience firmware. You can however download the "hi locker" app to replace the lock screen and then fp will work (at least on some of the ROMs). I haven't tried it though as i like my stock lock screen. Guess that's the price we pay for having edge panels and a newer software on the S5.

Verizon Galaxy S5 strip for GPS/Wifi only

Any advise/ideas on a stripped down rom (and root/bootloader instruction link), would be greatly appreciated.
Looking for as stripped down as possible, so the phone/messaging functionality is gone (and doesn't interfere/complain). Looking to use it as a stand alone GPS unit, and maybe a few wifi apps, and that's it.

Regarding a "Debloat" way for removing the Phone, SMS, MMS, etc... functions...
This is not possible because of the dependencies associated with them and the various other functions.
This question would probably be best asked on the following thread.
