See the original thread posted by britoso for details but thought you guys might like a fresh post here with details specific to our SGS2:
[APP][ROOT] Google Talk 1.3 with Video calling, Now wifi optional!
Initially installed talk1.3.nowifi.update-signed.zip via root explorer as per I2asta's post but the other party could not see my video in their chat. So, installed the suggested "GoogleServicesFramework.apk" to /system/app location (root explorer), rebooted and video is now working both ways!!
Update - A little guide as suggested by nasgilani!
Notes
- Root Explorer is a paid app, tried & tested! There are free alternatives out there but use at your own peril...
- I'll be using the updated gapps and the files therein for this guide. If you want to use an alternative version e.g. nowifi, download that one and use in the instructions instead.
- After performing this mod you will probably have to setup your Google Account again... and possibly reboot a second time to resolve any quirks.
Steps
1. Download the Full Google Apps from 20110503 which includes the updated GTalk
2. Extract the following files from the zip and place them somewhere easily accessible on your phone's SDcard:
/system/app/Talk.apk
/system/app/GoogleServicesFramework.apk
/system/lib/libtalk_jni.so
3. Open up Root Explorer and goto your extracted files
4. Long Click on Talk.apk and rename to Talk2.apk
5. Long Click on Talk2.apk and copy it, then navigate to /system/app
6. Press Mount R/W at the top right so it looks like:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Fig. 1 - Mount R/W to write files to this system folder
7. Click on the Paste button to paste it here
8. Long Click on Talk.apk and rename it to Talk.apk1
Fig. 2 - You should now have both talk2.apk and talk.apk1 as shown above
9. Long Click on Talk2.apk and select permissions
Fig. 3 - Permissions should be as above
10. Alter the permissions to the same as Fig. 3 above and OK it
11. Now navigate back to your extracted files and rename GoogleServicesFramework.apk to something like GoogleServicesFramework2.apk and then Copy it.
12. Navigate to system/app and then Paste it here
13. Rename the original GoogleServicesFramework.apk to GoogleServicesFramework.apk1
14. Now you can Rename the new GoogleServicesFramework2.apk to GoogleServicesFramework.apk
Fig. 4 - Now you should have 2 GoogleServicesFramework files
15. Long Click on the new GoogleServicesFramework.apk and alter the permissions to the same as shown in Fig. 3 above and then OK it
16. Navigate back to your extracted files again and Copy libtalk_jni.so
17. Then navigate to /system/lib and press Mount R/W
18. Paste libtalk_jni.so here
19. Again, set the Permissions of libtalk_jni.so as shown in Fig. 3
20. Reboot your phone...
21. Open up Talk, click on your own avatar and make sure Allow video and voice chats is enabled
22. Test out chat to make sure audio/video is working both ways...
23. Done!
A big thanks to britoso for posting this and I2asta for the root explorer intstructions!!
Thanks for posting it mate,
I would suggest if you can make a small guide on how and what you did to enable Gtalk video enabled on SGS2
Edit: Thanks mate you made this thread alive after the Guide..

Do I have to replace the original Talk.apk on system/app?
have you tested video chat with a pc client? How was the quality on 3g?

yep, I renamed it in the above instructions to Talk.apk1 and left it there just in case you wanted to revert back to the original Talk.
Just a note, lost my Google sync after installing the GoogleServicesFramework.apk, and had to re-add my account in Settings to get my contacts back etc...
No issue obviously just wanted to prevent any "OMGWTFBBQ!! where have all my contacts gone?!?!?!?!" posts... lol

yep, I've only tested with PC clients and if you installed the nowifi version then it works with 3G. The quick tests I've done over 3G shows it works rather well with only a slight lag, acceptable imo.

Sorry mate, i missed that part as i had already installed it and the only change i made was installing GoogleServicesFramework.apk as i found earlier today my mate could hear but not see me...
So that was my bad buddy, i'm sure anyone coming to this thread and reading properly will see what i missed, i just scanned it quick as i had already done most of the work...
One thing i've experienced, when switching to the Rear Camera, it cashes and I only get audio until I select Force Close... i tried this several times but on the 4th it fully crashed my phone, which took maybe 2mins to decide to reboot itself... no damage done tho...
Dickie
Thanks ma10 !! it works ! haha.. I just need to re-login my google account but no contact lost before login.
Edit: Try to change to rear cam and it work fine.

@Dickie, I'm using talk1.3.nowifi.update-signed.zip and I guess that jonrwg is using the one inside gapps.zip if that is any help...
What is the different between talk1.3.nowifi.update-signed.zip and gapps.zip? Is it the same? Just curious.
Do we have this working with the front camera yet?
Does 'Talk2.apk' not need to be renamed to 'Talk.apk' between steps 9 and 10?

I've never started a thread here, as I rarely have a unique idea - but this time I've decided to bite the bullet and share my experience.
It has been discussed on these forums about editing the APKs for non-stock apps in order to make the icon match the theme throughout the OS (as opposed to using Bettercut or similar to just change the homescreen icon). It has also been discussed elsewhere, but I can't find the link.
My problem was very similar, yet different, so I figured I'd play around and see what I could come up with.
I use the unbelievably sexy GlossSuite theme by Moonsspoon which uses this cool little icon in the notification bar to alert you to having a new SMS (and maybe MMS, not sure...).
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I also use the app from the market called SMS Popup. If you dont know what it is, check it out - very handy. One of my favorite features of the app is that you can use it for your SMS notifications, and it allows you to set a custom vibe pattern and it will flash the LED the color of your choice - both very helpful to let you know that it's an SMS you're getting instead of a call or whatever...
You need to turn off the native SMS app's notifications when you use this feature of SMS Popup so that you dont get 2 alerts every time you get a message. The drawback to this, while using a theme like GlossSuite, is that the notification icon for messages that SMS Popup uses is the stock icon:
This is only a problem if you're OCD like myself.
I had already gotten the png icon extracted from the GlossSuite theme in hopes that I could just swap it out with the icon inside the SMS Popup apk (if I could find it, that is).
So I decided to crack open the APK for SMS Popup and see if I could find the icon used and what I could do to make it use the icon from the GlossSuite theme.
Inside the APK in the /res/drawable folder there are 2 images: The app's icon, and the icon used in the notification bar. And to make it even easier, the file name was exactly the same as the file used by the GlossSuite theme! Easy enough!
I used 7zip (WinRAR should work just fine too) to:
1. Open the APK
2. Navigate to the /res/drawable folder
3. Delete the stat_notify_sms.png
4. Drag and drop the png I extracted from the theme into it's spot
5. Delete the META-INF folder inside the SMS Popup APK
-- I got this info from the previously mentioned thread about swapping non-stock icons. It is so that when you resign the APK in the next step, the keys don't conflict with what the APK dev has used (or something like that - I admittedly don't know anything about keys and signing and all that jazz)
6. Close your archiving application.
I then used this auto-signing tool posted by "Dave Da illest 1" to resign the APK using the testkeys. It had to be edited slightly to sign APKs instead of ZIP files. If you want to download my edited version of the auto-signing tool, click here.
Uninstalled the previous version of the app, copied the APK over to my SDcard and then used AppManager to install the APK, and now:
(yes, I know there are typos...)
It works!
I'm sure most of your brainiacs here at XDA have figured this out on your own, but I couldnt find any solid information on it so I figured I'd share what little knowledge I had on the subject.
If you want to try this for yourself and want the icon from the GlossSuite theme, it is here.
And if you just happen to have GlossSuite installed and are using SMS Popup and would like my already edited version of the APK, click here.
[DISCLAIMER: If my sharing of this APK goes against any rules of the forum, please excuse my ignorance. If I find out this is the case, and a mod hasn't beat me to the punch, I'll gladly remove this link!]
So - with all that being said, I should clarify that I haven't done any theme creation (although I have edited a few pngs here and there, but nothing major), so obviously this bit of information is probably well below most of you... But if it can help anyone, then yay for my first real contribution to this community.
Awesome find. When I finally settle on a version I think I will sit down and do this for a few Apps. I havent heard anything on it before so as far as I'm concerned your the first!
|Spike|
i am trying to do something very similar- i am trying to install the file below as my status bar icon but when i use your autosign app (and the other auto sign app) i still get a "this cannot be installed on your device" or something similar....
did you have this issue ever?
After resigning with your tool did you then name it back to what is originally was or did you leave the name as to what the autosign converted it to?
fixed. apparently you need to uninstall the app first. wonder how this affects updates of it in the future?

Yeah thanks for pointing this out - I added the "remove old version" step to my information in the original post.
And since the process goes as such, as far as the Market is concerned, the app isn't even installed on the phone, so I would assume that you won't be notified of updates.
And, of course, if you manually notice an update in the Market and install the app from there, you won't have your changes in place... would have to go thru the process again I believe.
That's where aTrackDog comes into play.
Keep all your apps uptodate even if the market doesn't know.

2. Navigate to the /res/drawable folder
Am I supposed to open the APK on my phone or computer? I can't find this folder.

Its simply just replace the image with your own, resign, install and you're good to go. Heres an example of what you could do.
I made this months ago but didn't think it was anything special so i never said anything. Lighting bolt at the top is the triangle notification.
copy it from your phone to your pc using adb.

For non-stock apps, you can use a free app called AppManager to copy non-protected apps to your SD card.
Or, you can just use the terminal emulator
cd data/app
ls
[shows a list of all non-protected apps installed]
cp [filename.apk] /sdcard/[backup folder of your choice]
This same method can be used for protected apps if you can find the correct folder... But I won't provide that info, because I'm sure that's against the rules of these forums.

Congrats. Like I said, this isn't rocket science. But for a n00b like me (and apparently others) this was good information that I'm glad I posted.
so how do edit the files in update.zip without getting an error?

Can someone confrim that Galactic core and Aquarium wallpapers are working in this rom because in other clean roms they just starting but after screen goes out then you hit screen unlock button it changes to default wallpaper.

think they mean Darchstar's ROM. they've taken Darchstar's ROM and are working on it.
Anyway a little feedback for your ROM. I realised it has the same "insufficient storage space" bug as a few of the other Eclair ROMs. So I can't install any new apps from market or from my SD card.
The only way I know how to fix it is using the Terminal Emulator app but since your ROM doesn't come with it, I can't install it because of the bug even if I have the apk in my SD card. So it's sort of a Catch 22 situation, if you know what I mean.
Thing is, am I able to just manually copy the Terminal Emulator apk file into your "EzHero0.1_signed.zip" file in the "/system/app" folder so that the Terminal Emulator app is installed automatically during flashing? Or do I have to re-sign the whole package again?
Look`s great but i need functional BT with my CAR BT KIT. :-(

Download and install the latest android sdk .also Java jdk find and download autosign. Do this all by searching. I would download a custom rom as a template for your update.zip. extract the data folder and the Meta folder and put into a new folder, go into Meta folder keep clicking through the folders inside Meta one till you find update-script and open it in notepad.
Delete everything except the part saying something like copy package DIRATA and the show progress before it. Once that's all done put the Apps you want into the data folder zip up the data and Meta folders, when you open the zip folder you should only see those 2 no others! Resign it using autosign and flash

or us adb to change the permition

do you use a hex editor to edit the update-script? reason I'm asking is when i open it with Notepad, it appears as a whole continuous chunk of text. If I open it with Wordpad or MS Word, it's nicely formatted, but when I save it, what should I save it as? There are a few options like Text Document, RTF, Unicode and MS-Dos format. Whatever I choose, when I reopen the saved document with Notepad, it's not in a continuous chunk of text anymore and it's nicely formatted. And as I had expected, when trying to flash this, error msg appeared and the flashing stopped.
Maybe I'll just wait for Hanser to fix this in the next version instead or I'll try using ADB at my home PC.
http://hotfile.com/dl/131101226/7660669/GoogleTalk.zip.html
I got it from HTC Ruby test firmware. The apk has proper Google signature.
It's still versioned 1.3 but I think it is newer than the one from http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-newtalk-signed.zip, because this one has more complete Chinese localization.

Get the Download All Files app from Market.
The stock android browser doesnt allow you to download unsupported files. This includes files like .zip, .rar etc. Instead you get download failed. As claimui said get the download all files app from the market.
Gtalk video working perfect on Samsung Galaxy S2 XXKI4 Android 2.3.5
Help plz? I am still unable to make this google talk version stick after reboot. I tried some of the methods here (I don't understand the changed permissions to rw-r-r method) and nothing makes it stick after reboot. My SGS2 reverts back to the old Google Talk.
Hi,
First thing first Make Sure You Have Root access. i believe you have already rooted your phone.
to check root access use Root Check Basic (get it from android market)
This is Manual installation of gtalk
You Need Root Explorer (File Manager) for changing the permissions of \system\lib folder from R/O to R/W to copy libtalk_jni.so the file in \system\lib. Backup Your existing Gtalk files with Titanium Backup or Astro file Manager.
Download the GoogleTalk2.zip from page 1 unzip
1. Take Backup for existing Gtlak.
2. Delete the old Talk.odex and talk.apk from \system\app
3. Download both files, install gtalk2.apk
4. copy libtalk_jni.so run root explorer go to \system\lib change folder permissions from (Mouned R/O) readonly to (Mount R/W) ReadWrite rename the existing libtalk_jni.so to oldlibtalk_jni.so now Paste the copied libtalk_jni.so earlier to \system\lib Reboot Your Phone and Cross Your Fingers
I have tested on Samsung Galaxy S2 XXKI4 Android 2.3.5, and front camera video with voice working fine .
Hope this will Help.
Try This
Hi there,
I am just a noob, but tried Criskelo's latest rom and gtalk video works out of the box. Also this rom is much more better than the sgs2 stock rom.

Your method works! Thanks a lot! It now sticks after reboot!
The stock camera on this phone blows as we all know. But fear not... the AOSP camera is completely compatible with our Moto G!:laugh::good: I'll give a quick tutorial on how to replace your camera for people that are new to this. But for those of you that have been around the block, basically youre just going into system/priv-app and renaming the moto cam & gallery apk's to apk.bak, then copy/pasting the attached camera and gallery apks to the system folder, setting R/W permissions, and rebooting.
Now for the step by step... (i'll be using Solid Explorer for this example, because its free from the play store, but you can use any file exploring app you like as long as it has root access)
1. Download the zip file in the link https://www.dropbox.com/s/crpilccds52lmaw/AOSPcam&gallery.zip and extract it. Inside should be two files, GalleryGoogle.apk and GoogleCamera.apk. Copy them to the internal storage of your phone.
2. Download Solid Explorer from the play store. Open it up and hit the jump button at the bottom, then device, then system root.
3. Now scroll down to the system folder, tap it and go into the priv-app folder. Scroll down till you see four files - MotCamera.apk, MotCamera.Odex, MotGallery.apk, & MotGallery.odex. For each one, hold down on it until the option to Rename it pops up, then add ".bak" to the end of each one. (example, MotCamera.odex = MotCamera.odex.bak) SuperSU should pop up asking for root access, grant it of course.

}
4. When youre done renaming, hit the jump button again, then device> Internal Memory. Inside should be your two files you downloaded earlier. Hit the actions button at the bottom, then select, and highlight the 2 files and hit the copy button at the bottom (the 4th one that looks like two little papers). Now hit Jump> Device> System Root and go into the system folder, then the app folder. Hit actions again and Paste.
5.Stay in the system/app folder, now find you two files you just pasted, and hold down on one of them, then tap Properties, and where it says Attributes hit change. You should only have 4 checkmarks here: Read for Owner, Group, and Other... and Write for Owner. Anything else thats checked, uncheck it. Hit ok and do the same for the other one.
6. Follow the directions in this post to fix fc's in gallery editor (thanks tazlooney89 :thumbup: ) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49263859
7. Now reboot and youre all done! Now you have a less crappy camera and a smoother gallery app! :highfive:

Sounds like an issue with root access,make sure you enabled root explorer in es settings and/or make sure your su binary is up to date

Does this camera have Google Sphere photos?

Moto G doesn't have a gyro sensor, so this is the reason why Photosphere won't ever work.

Nope, no photosphere. It does have a lot more options, like selecting MP size, scenes, and ISO.
*as a side note, part of the reason the stock Moto camera takes such crappy pics is that by default it takes pics at 3.5 MP. Uncheck the 16:9 option to get the full 5 MP :thumbup:

Same here. ES has root access according to SU app, but when I try to rename it, I get task failed.
Running on 4.4.2 US retail.
Oops... Sorry guys, I didn't realize ES was having problems. I personally did it with Root Explorer app, but since it's a paid app I didn't want to recommend it...
But I suggest using Solid Explorer, it has a free trial version and I've tested it just now so I know it works, just follow the use basic instructions as before. I'll update the op a little later:banghead:

ES File explorer, Astro File manager and Root file Manager don't work. At least not in 4.4.2.
But root browser does, and its free on google play.
Thanks for this mod.

Does it seem to you pictures are any better? I can't decide.
I think so. Try taking a pic of something with writing on it with both cams.
Is slow motion recording enabled?
Enviado desde mi XT1032
To me, the focus seems to work better and also the pics look more natural, with a little less processing / saturation that the stock moto cam. Low light shots still look crappy, but I think that's more of a hardware limitation.
Sent from my XT1034 using Tapatalk
I've done it with ES File Explorer, no problems at all. Thanks for the apps
For those who are having issues with ES File Explorer you must MOUNT R/W to make changes in "/system"
Enviado desde mi XT1032 mediante Tapatalk
If any of you have problems with the editor of pictures inside the gallery and problems with the panoramic photos, specifically FCs.
Download the zip file containing the libraries necessary to avoid these problems.
Download fix-galleryeditor.zip
Remove the lib folder and copy it to SDcard
Copy the files to / system / lib with RootExplorer or EsExplorer
* If you are instructed to replace some files will accept the option.
Finally give permissions RW - R - R
Restart their Moto entering G Galeria, edit photography and editor will be working properly.

@lowrider262 & @tazlooney89
Thank you both.
I made flashable zip for this (apps & lib files) for easy installation.
If you have problem with this, i delete them...
To all
Chose your zip.
AOSP_Cam_and_gallery_delete_Moto_Cam.zip -> original Moto Camera & Gallery app will be deleted
or
AOSP_Cam_and_gallery_leave_Moto_Cam.zip -> original Moto Camera & Gallery app will NOT be deleted, and you will have two Camera and two Gallery apps
Copy zip dile to your device, flash it via CMW, TWRP or flashify
If someone used AOSP_Cam_and_gallery_delete_Moto_Cam.zip and want to have back MOTO Camera and Gallery, then flash this MOTO_Cam_and_gallery_delete_AOSP.zip. This will add back Moto Cam & Gallery apk with odex files, and will delete AOSP apk's.

Thanks for this, the iOS10 emojis work great. Can we only have one set installed at a time or is it possible to install multiple emoji packs?

Looking at the script and files, it looks to be the same font name, so no. It would take some trickery to have multiple emoji sets available on the same system.

I tried running your script and it did not work. Well, it appeared to have worked, rebooted, but all the emoji's are the same (not iOS 10).
I'm contemplating on manually doing it, as I've replaced system files in the past.
Edit: Just moved the file manually and changed the permissions to RW-R-R and it worked like a charm. I don't think your script is moving the file correctly ?
Anyways, thanks for the font packs!

You didn't follow the steps is all. You probably didn't use the app stated in op, or you didn't have the zip in your Download folder

I did both of these things, but okay.
I re-read your instructions and it appears that you're assuming there will be a folder with the name of the zip file under Downloads with the scripts in it. I extracted the zip contents into downloads and it put the scripts in downloads, and the sys folder in there as well. Perhaps this is where the confusion is? I see your script has the following path: /sdcard/Download/WETA_Pixel_emoji/sys/ios10/fonts/, where the bolded folder is the difference. When I extract your zip to the Downloads folder, it doesn't create this folder automatically (perhaps your version of Root Browser is set to do this).
I'm sure this will help anyone in a similar situation.

Root browser is not root explorer. Root browser extracts to a folder of the same name as the zip. This is why I link the app also. All I'm trying to do is make it as simple as possible for people who don't even know what a script is. If root browser is not extracting to that named folder then I'm sorry I got it wrong. I don't want people misled by any of this. Please confirm what root app you are using
Use root browser peoples just like the OP stated.
