I just installed Paranoid Android ROM and I'm really happy with it but I'm missing the stock email as it's the only one which seems to play nicely with my work exchange server.
I've tried Air Droid and K-9 but they just won't connect, and I don't want to have to shell out on Touchdown.
Has anyone got the stock email apk they could upload for me? Thanks
I am on Stock 4.1 Jelly Bean. By mistake i uninstalled the email.apk using titanium backup. Now not able to install using email.apk from different source nor through titanium backup. Also the email.apk from this link also not installing for me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28000240
tried to put the email.apk to system/app. reboot. but still no success.
can somebody help me.

You may have to fix permissions.

using a file manager like Root Explorer or EStrongs, browse to the file in system/app, open the properties, and change the permissions as rw- r-- r-- (see screenshot)

Hello,
I installed a custom ROM and I flashed gapps, but I am missing the exchange e-mail app. How do I get it back. I tried installing the apk from the system image and that didn't work and I tried pushing it to /system/app/ and that didn't work either.

Change the permissions of the email app so it matches the other files permissions in the /system/app dir.
And ya i noticed the same thing, wonder why they left it out.
I tried that and it doesn't work.

It should work, try again with these deodexed files and set the permissions to rw-r--r--
So I'm trying to replace some original system apps that i deleted from de-bloating. I basically just copy paste it via ES file explorer to system/app and change permissions to rw- r-- r-- and restart. I've gotten apps working using this method before, but some apps don't seem to want to re-install when I do this. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Have you tried installing them instead of just moving them ?

Which apps are you trying to reinstall?
Do they maybe have dependent libs? If I were u, I'd just do a nandroid backup, reflash the ROM, and maybe restore your data only from the nandroid.

The one's i'm trying to get back are VPN client and the stock music player. They both come with odex files and I'm pulling them straight out of an image so I doubt they're corrupt. I was thinking about starting over, but it's a lot of work redoing my theming. I guess I'll live without the apps for now.
I'm running 4.1.1 with the 4.2 camera and can't successfully upgrade to 4.2 without a bunch of hassle so I'd like to just turn off the "system update available" notification and the annoying popup that's associated with it. I'm rooted and have all the typical apps (Ti backup, root browser, busybox, voodoo, etc.).
I've searched all over and can't find how to get these notifications to go away. Deleting the OTA files works for a short time but it's not a long term solution. Thanks.

Copy this apk to system/app and you should be good. Don't forget to fix permissions

Either push this to system/app and change permissions to rw/r/r or push to system/app and immediately reboot into recovery and choose to fix permissions

in Titanium back-up you can find the system update and freeze it so it won't try to update anymore

Well, I put it in the app folder and changed the permissions and then rebooted. First thing that popped up on the screen once it had rebooted was the OTA notification. Am I supposed to be able to open this app to set it up or something? I can't find it in the app tray and it appears so far it's done nothing to help the situation. Thanks.
Hey guys,
I was hoping to be able to install the JB clock app/widget on an ICS ROM, but I haven’t been able to locate the right thing to download/install. Is what I want even possible, and if so, can anyone provide a link?
TIA
Heres the DeskClock apk i just pulled from my rom: http://www.mediafire.com/download/p8waf6k78vmnflv/DeskClock.apk
Try putting it into system/app and changing the permissions to rw-r-r using a file explorer with root access. Then reboot and see if it appears in your app drawer.

Did you dump it in /system/app, change permissions to rw-r-r, then reboot?

It's not something you install. It is an apk, but you don't need to install anything in /system/app. You would drop it in, change permissions, and reboot. Try wiping dalvik/cache too.
Is there another MMS apk that is more customizable? And can do quick reply? Im finding they either have one or the other. Either the boring stock bubbles with 4 styles/colors or no quick reply. And I want to stay with the stock messaging app.
