Thanks, I'm an idiot. Delete thread now, lol.
Need facebook for sense apk! thanks
Other than Friendstream, I wasn't aware that there was one other than the standard market FaceBook app which is currently 1.2. You can get the latter from Market and the Friesndtream apk and widget from any of the ROM zips. Make sure to get ODEX or DeODEXed ones depending on what rom you are running.

well my facebook links for contacts wernt working so in titanium backup i uninstalled both the facebook sense and the facebook 1.2 and now in friendstream i dont see facebook at all even after installing facebook 1.2 from the market
I looked in my ROM zip and it is under /system/app and is called HtcFacebook.apk. Since I don't know what ROM you used, just download the appropriate zip and get the apk from it (and .odex if applicable).

Just tried to install this but it asked if I wanted to uninstall the stock one? Don't really want to do that as I may never get it back.

cruznec linked you to a good page but it makes no difference weather you do it as a zip of mount it urself. the zip will do the same it will replace ur stock with the transparent dialer
@tehpriest....
before installing mine.......get a backup of the original one using root explorer.....copy it from system/app into ur sdcard........
u got it backed up......
now if u wish to go back then just replace the apk frm my zip file with the backup apk and flash it
Hi people,
we all know that since ICS the Facebook app can't sync anymore with Android because Google disabled that feature, and wants Facebook to alter it's app in order to get the sync working again.
Facebook doesn't seem to be working very hard on that, and i really like my FB contacts being synced. So i read a few things on the web, and i saw this: http://android.modaco.com/topic/350037-enabling-facebook-sync-in-ice-cream-sandwich/. That seemed very interesting, but it still worked with some ugly init.d scripts, and his scripts can't be downloaded as Filesonic keeps deleting those files (and he didn't post the source).
But the first step he explained seemed helpful, and a poster who commented on his post gave a solution to get the sync working with only editing the ContactsProvider.apk: http://android.modaco.com/topic/350...-cream-sandwich/page__p__1873845#entry1873845.
So i tried it out. Took my contactsprovider.apk from OneCosmic's ICS (RC 2.11), and decompiled it with the latest apktool. I altered the files as explained in the posts, and tried to recompile.
But that's where i got stuck. It didn't recompile. I can't get it working. Tried different versions of apktool, loaded framework-res.apk, but it keeps giving errors. It really is a bummer, i wanted to try it out and see if i could get the sync working again.
Does anybody have a clue how i can recompile my files again, or does anybody have another solution? Thanks in advance!
I did manage to add arrays.xml file into resources, and patch that smali file (but the spot was @ line 9319!?).
Here's the apk:
http://www.multiupload.com/EJXMTI2G3W
I haven't signed it, cause I don't know if it's needed for system APKs.
Try it, and sign it yourself if needed.
I used apktool to add arrays.xml into resources and baksmali/smali for smali.
And as always I picked the new files (resources.arsc and classes.dex) and replaced them manually into a copy of the original apk.
Hope it helps.
edit: Ahh, forgot to mention.
I took ContactsProvider.apk from Onecosmics 2.1 build but I guess they're the same!
Not running ICS, not using FB sync, so not tested at all.

Errr, no!?
First, you should try the APK I uploaded before, *UNTOUCHED*.
If that doesn't work, try this one which is signed.
Do not modify/touch/change any of them!

A while ago I tried to find a fix for using dark themes (saves battery life) but MMS text always turned out black on black. Making it unreadable.
So after a some investigations I am happy to say I have a fix that works with sending images
The CM10.1 version works with Shpongle for me fine so far.

i use the one from black jelly 2.2
Curious,
just installed this and the icon on the homescreen is still that green default native app one.
I really dig that ics colored icon, is there a way to change it within the app as opposed to using something like desktop visualizer? I'm looking for it to install that icon by default.
I know i can decompile the apk and change it that way. But I'm prepping to do a reinstall on my pc and don't want to install an apk tool till after.
If not that's cool, just figured I'd ask

i dont think u can change the Icon of the Messages app ... the icons come from Framework-res.apk .. you have to change it there or use a theme :good::fingers-crossed:
Here's another hmm for y'all. And I'll mention that I pulled the native mms apk from the phone first.
Does anybody have the app going back to the light colors after a reboot? I still have the native apk but it's on my sd card. So I can't see where it could be influencing the dark apk. But sure as the sun rises in the east, when I have to reboot for some reason it reverts. If I reinstall the dark apk it all goes back to what is supposed to be, and I retain all my messages. Just curious if it's just me. Or something I did
Oh, figured out how to get the ics icon to show on your homescreen.
Before you flash your Rom, go into system/app and pull the green mms.apk, and replace it with the dark version. When the phone boots it'll use that apk and viola. Ics icon and dark mms.
Hope this helps somebody. Personally I think the dark version actually sends the msgs faster. Maybe it's in my head, but it sure felt that way,
Update: for clarification, this needs to be done on your pc. Don't have to unzip the file or anything, just open it as you would a normal file/folder. I is definitely say to do this before transferring the Rom file to you device. It seems to take forever otherwise. Plus one on the phone, it seems you can't change the name of the file. Which I'd definitely recommend. Just name it "mms.apk" the device seems to take care of the permission stuff itself.

Using root explorer you can just paste it into the system/app folder, also if you use Titanium backup then once its installed you can incorporate the update into the rom. This means it will always boot with your new .apk
I have just installed the BlackOut clear theme with mms.apk and all the rest. You can install all the zips etc for GAPs as well

That's interesting.I was using smanager to do the same thing. But whenever I'd rebootthe phone it would revert to the native style. The only way I've gotten it to stick permanently is with the method I mentioned before

You need to rename and redo the permissions as well, but all that can be done on phone with root explorer.

Just replacing the one in the Rom with the dark one and flashing the Rom did it for me. No permission stuff, just renamed it. And flashed the Rom. aside from pulling the native app from the Rom zip. That is

http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads is where I got mine from, there is a little variation from rom to rom but generally pretty mint. Plenty of dark gapps in there as well, I used most of the 4.4 ones in the SlimRom except for the camera which I got from a normal google apk.
I'm working on a apktool guide so you could always read and use that :angel: .
Do you want direct links for apk only to save bandwidth? or are the rom files fine?
Thanx for sharing!!!... But i cant find mms.apk anywhere... Is it in rom zip??? If yes, plz if u have, can u share the direct links for apk...

Hi Rohov, its in the rom.zip all the mms.apk s are in the /system/app folder. You can use any zip program to open them and pull the apks out. Once they are on your phone you may need to change the permissions to -r -rw -rw itll make sense in the root browser if not post me.
Here as requested is my current fav mms.apk tho.
