Download a Samsung ICS ROM and extract the related apps you need. SkyICS is one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] JackTheMan18:
Works!!!

Just wanted to say that these zip files work on Litning Rom V3.6 (ICS)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vwyankee:
I'm wondering if the "ICS_Stock_Email.zip" could be used on an AOSP ROM given my desire to use the Samsung Exchange services/features on AOSP. I also find the zip file naming ironic given the thread title. I do realize we're in the Skyrocket forum so "stock" is the Samsung UI, but as the thread title states it is more accurate to Android with "stock" being the Google Exchange Email and ours being "Samsung Exchange Email."

I may have to just test an AOSP ROM with the Samsung (stock) zip file. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rpr69:
Yes, the naming is probably a bit confusing. I meant stock as it was before the flash. Glad people are still getting use out of it.

I have tried to install the google mail but am having some problems. When I start in recovery and select the zip file to install, it installs fine. But then another install runs, update.zip which wipes my entire phone and reinstalls the original email app.

Once I get everything setup again the Google mail is there but I haven't been able to get it to connect to my exchange server on godaddy. Once I run the original email app the Google version won't run at all.

Even when I try and revert back to the Samsung email the update.zip runs and wipes the phone.

I am using a Samsung Galaxy 2 I777 from ATT with stock ICS 4.03.

Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rpr69:
That's a new one on me. What ROM are you running? Oh, I see you are on stock 4.0.3 on a 777 (which phone is that?)

Honestly, I would recommend going to CM9 or one of the AOKP variants, as they don't have any of the Samsung bloat.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jderouse:
It's the one that samsung.att posted recenty. I show Build # IML74KCLES, Kernel version 3.0.15-i777UCLE5-CL652575.

I''ve looked at and read about replacing the ROM but always makes me nervous. Need my phone to work and don't like to experiment with my main machine. Had a backup for a coule of days until my wife lost her phone. Never got a chance to experiment.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rpr69:
Ah. Not sure how it would work on a stock ROM, sorry.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jdogg4000:
Would this work on the Samsung Galaxy S3?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rlanza1054:
Hi all,

Maybe this is the correct forum to post my question.

I have an Asus TF300T. I never liked the gmail app and the stock email app that came with the Asus TF300T is just too limited. Plus both of these apps only work with black text on a white background.

I want an email app that works with white text on a black background.

For now, I am using Kaiten Mail (pro version of K-9). But K-9 does not always get recognized as an email app for certain procedures.

I wanted to be able to use stock, but as I said the inability to change the theme or look makes it undesirable for me.

I tried to copy the new Samsung built-in app that comes with the newly upgraded ICS version on the Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch on Sprint, and I was unable to install it.

I understand that I'm trying to install a phone app on a tablet but thought it would work.

Does anyone know of a way to get it installed?

Thanks.

Rob
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zard:
Go to settings, force stop the stock email app. Use es file explorer (with root enabled) to move the apks out of /system/app. Copy the ics apks into this folder, change the permissions accordingly (check the other apk permission if you don't know what to set). Reboot.

Take a look at the following "article" by Pocketlint in the UK comparing the ipad with the prime.

Very funny read......

http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/45050/new-ipad-vs-transformer-prime
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] luckyjj:
1ST: NEW IPAD 3G, lighter weight, better video watching

2ND: PRIME no 3G, heavy, great but missing touch of class

LOL they compare the weight of the prime including the keyboard??

I also like the squeezing in of advertising for apple tv.

"The iPad does claim the win here in the video stakes, though. Its video application is just a lot slicker than Android."

Because android doesn't have choice, and they 4:3 screen is just amazing for widescreen movies.

thanks for the funny read.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] d1ez3:
This can't be real right?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GernBlanston:
Actually, I would agree with just about everything they said...from their point of view, that is. There are reasons people buy Ipads, just like there are reasons I prefer an android device like the Prime. I like being able to play any format, and to be able to stream over my network without intermediaries like Itunes and DLNA. They value the simplicity and integration of Itunes and being able to integrate with Apple TV, and they like the added display resolution. I like to have games that look good and run smoothly with a lot of graphical detail, they like a bigger selection and simpler games. I like something heavily customizable, they like simplicity and uniform behavior. I didn't find any of their assertions wrong, just not my point of view.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Comparing the weight of the Prime with the keyboard dock and using that as a negative for the Prime (when by itself it's lighter than the iPad) is a clear sign of bias (or maybe sloppy thinking). If the reviewer wanted to be impartial, he would have tossed in one of the various iPad keyboard dock options and an external battery pack, and included those in the iPad's weight.

I don't consider this an unbiased review by any stretch.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fasthair:
Wow! Lets face it the new iPad, all iPads' for that matter, are the 800lbs gorillas that all other tablets are and will judged buy. They set the standard, for better or worst, simply because they've sold millions of them and people love them. It's fact so don't flame me.

They are not for everyone , me included, and most likely everyone in this forum. But this review was so mismatched that I'm not even going to try and rebut all of it. I will say though if you going to compare products then compare like products.

First I'm pissed my Prime didn't come with the "included keyboard." I thought that cost extra? I'm pretty sure you can buy one for the iPad too. Which one would be easier to throw in the rucksack then? Next is cost. 500$ will buy both of these products and the last I checked you didn't 3G and 32GB of storage for that money on the iPad either. Last point is video. Now I don't know how Apple TV works but I'm pretty sure it's a wireless connection to the iPad to be able to view it on the TV since PL didn't have to "plug it in." Correct me if I'm wrong but could the Prime not do this too? My TV and Windows 7 PCs all have DNLA built in and to this day have of yet to plug any of my Android devices into a PC to get content on or off them or watch stuff on my TV. Samba Fileshare lets all of my Android devices be part of my home network wirelessly. But you know the best part for me? I don't have to install and use that God forshaken **** software iTunes!

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slef2003:
It was such a fair review that I had to put my two penny's worth in!!:rolleyes:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jordache16:
"The iPad’s extra display resolution does come into play during email. Text is far, far easier to read..."

This was one of the main things that stuck out to me.

Does text look sharper on the iPad? Sure, i'll give you that considering the higher resolution, but I definitely wouldn't say it is "far, far easier to read". I have used both devices and can attest that text and images do look slightly better on the iPad, but the article makes it sound like the iPad display is a gift from God and that the Prime's display doesn't even compare, which is totally inaccurate.

I also didn't agree with comparing the weight of the iPad to the weight of the Prime with the dock. They are so full of it anyways as they claim the weight of the keyboard dock could be the straw the breaks the camel's back when it comes to rucksack weight. If there really is that big of a problem with the weight (which is BS to begin with)... guess what? The keyboard dock comes off!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MK17:
That's a true display (pun intended) of how Apple can market something and people will consider it amazing in every way.

It's as if people sat around before the iPad3 squinting at the screen and considered reading email an unusable feature on any tablet. As if anyone who looked at their iPad2 said, "You know, if you doubled the pixel density it would make the experience of reading this email so much better!"

Keep in mind the Primes density is 150, the iPad2 is 136 and the 3rd gen iPad is 264.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GernBlanston:
Yes, we Prime owners are such brainwashed apple fanatics. Whenever I like a device, I run out and buy the competing product. Sorry I suggested that apple might have some attraction for some folks other than me, it must have really hurt your feelings and called for some sort of retaliation.

Seriously, all I did was suggest that Apple had some appealing features...features that I explained didn't win me over due to the Prime's advantages in several areas...and out come the pitchforks. Of course I'm the one who's brainwashed....:rolleyes:

Yeah, or when he talks about the ease of sync'ing music and doesn't mention Google Music (or whatever it's called this week) at all.

Nor does he mention how much widgets and 3rd party launchers can customize your user "experience" with the Prime. Methinks the author is an Apple user by preference and doesn't have a clue what advantages Android can bring.

How do you save apps to usb storage instead of system storage when i hit move to sd card it says no sd card?

no, your device has 16GB of internal memory, that's where data and apps will go for now,when you save up and get a SD card, you can transfer apps, music or photos or whatever you wish to the external SD card. expandable up to 32 gb,,,some say it will support a 64GB SD card but i cannot confirm this..hope this helps

Sorry if this has already been asked and answered (i did a search...didn't find anything), but is there anyway to shortcut directly to the items in the "ASUS customized setting" section of the device settings?

Basically, i want to turn off the ASUS Quick Setting menu and revert to the standard ICS notification panel. However, i don't want to lose the quick access to the performance mode and Super IPS+ toggles. so far, i've had no luck getting those toggles into something like Widgetsoid...anyone have any ideas? where does ASUS hide those?

Thanks!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] trmitche2:
Either I'm a horrible forum searcher, or the terms involved with this question are just too common to find what I'm looking for in previous posts.....

When I send a text that is over 160 characters, the recipient always sees (1 of 2) and (2 of 2) at the beginning of each message. Accordingly, I notice that when I send a longer text, the character-counter above the send button on the stock messaging app shows that there are only ~147 characters available in each piece of the message, that is, *IF* the

entire

text is longer than 160. So I'm wasting characters on useless notations. Any way to turn that off, so people just see the characters I'm actually sending? If possible, I'd like to stay with the stock messaging app rather than using GoSMS or other alternative options.

FYI if it helps, I'm on stock rooted EK02 (waiting for official ICS from Sprint, and in the mean-time I don't feel like having to re-root, etc, just to update the EL29 (which still nags me every day BTW))

Oh, and I've also often wondered if there is an app out there that will automatically combine texts I receive from other people that are over 160.

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sniper:
I'm on stock el29 and it doesn't do that. It really isn't a hassle to update to el29 from your situation. Just use the no data one click Odin for rooted el29. You won't lose anything and you'll quickly be on the latest ota update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neuroval:
To get rid of the update notification search for the fotakill.zip posted somewhere in these forums.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tenazrael:
Or... any easier way to get rid of the notification without installing the fotakill.zip is this: When you get the notification, click more info. It will pull up a screen that will tell you about the el29 update. While that screen is open, pull your battery to force your phone to do a hard shutdown. Startup your phone and the notification will never come back. However, if you select to check for firmware updates (or is it android updates), the notification will come back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
You can use SFHUB's EL29 One Click the no data version to jump straight to EL29 rooted without erasing programs settings or data.

You can't root EL29 like you did EK02. You have to ODIN or use ClockWorkMod to push a rooted rom on an already rooted phone. You can use one click odin to do it with or without loss of whats on the phone. Going from EK02 to EL29 is fine for keeping data. So not only is it easy to move foward, theres pretty much no hassle or reason not to. Stock rooted EK02 to stock rooted EL29 in one click.

OH and you will have to goto ICS either the same way or through the official OTA method once again loosing root. You cant root your ICS install using the old zerg exploit either. If you lose root you will be using ODIN or SFHUB's One Click ODIN to get root... just letting you know. They way you did things before, currently do not apply and may not ever in the future.

I can't say anyone who knows all this has the same reason for being on EK02. You've spent more time clicking those notifications than it would have to do this - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1433101 Remember the No Data version to not lose anything.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DannyB513:
1. Download the following APK and place on the root of your internal or external sd card.

2. Using Root Explorer: Navigate to "sdcard" folder (this is your internal sd).

If you placed file on root of your external sd then once inside the sdcard folder navigate to "external_sd" folder

3. Go to file labeled "Gallery2.apk" and long press on file. Choose "Move" from the options that pop up.

4. Use the back key on your phone until at the top of the screen you see the Root Explorer icon and a "/" with nothing after the "/"

5. Click on folder marked "system". inside that folder click on "app" folder.

6.After you open the "app" folder click "Paste" button at bottom of screen. Scroll down and you should now see 2 gallery apk's. One labeled "Gallery2" and the other labeled "Gallery3D". Hit the Home button on your phone to exit.

Now for how to get widescreen wallpapers to work

1. From system settings for display choose Homescreen wallpaper. you will get a popup of the different options you have to choose wallpapers from. You must choose the Gallery that is labeled as "com.android.gallery3d". It will have the pink icon.

2. Once inside this gallery choose which image you would like to use as your wallpaper. Once you choose a popup box will appear. Your 2 options will be Crop picture from both the galleries. It does not matter which of the options you choose!!!

3. If you choose the Crop option labeled "com.cooliris.media" you will see the familiar orange rectangle to choose how to crop the image. If you choose the one labeled "com.android.gallery3d" the box for cropping will look different than you are accustomed to but will function just the same.

4. Resize how you like and hit the "CROP" button or "SAVE" button depending on which crop option you chose and your wallpaper is set for your homescreen.

For lockscreen choose select wallpaper from "Gallery" Choose complete action using the gallery marked "com.android.gallery3d". Pick your image and choose which gallery method you would like to crop with, crop image, and you are now good to go.

Thank you to RaverX3X for the AOSP ICS ROM that this apk is pulled from!!!!!

Thanks most of all to RaverX3X and Racing 19969 for giving us our first tastes of ICS!!!!!!
