Not near my PC at all, however I'll try what [MENTION=5390191]amandreamartino[/MENTION] mentioned, however I fully support his decision to not share the APK's, he's helped with getting some information on fixing Hub, which I at least appreciate, as he didn't post random posts to get people annoyed.

With regards to crashes people are experiencing, I won't be able to be much of a help, these apps are intended for the BlackBerry Priv, not every other Android phone. The apps are made to work with the Priv, nothing else.

Now, I won't quit getting these apps ported to actually work (and would not mind assistance from other people here), but I cannot guarantee anything.

Lastly this was typed with the BlackBerry Keyboard, it's so awesome! :D

Doesn't let me just click on the link.. All of the other mega links work, just not this one. No worries, I was going to give a stab at monkeying with it but I'll leave it to the pros.
[BlackBerry Priv] wolfgart:
:good: :D
[BlackBerry Priv] sieerra:
Well Hub is working.. just uninstall all patched services and resources and push fresh untouched apk's to system from this link. AND YES YOU NEED ROOT. https://mega.nz/#F!nV1VxaCQ!h4NK7tFMDasxyY9TSj61qA

edit: maybe this can fix other apps didn't tested it guys but it fixes hub and works flawlessly no more update popup
[BlackBerry Priv] wolfgart:
it seems no way to have 5x5 Month widget using stock BB Priv Calendar apk.

---------- Post added at 09:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 PM ----------

this can be done only for HUB apk or for all other apks too ?

Making this for keyboard too it works swipe function ?

/system/app ?
[BlackBerry Priv] sieerra:
you have to install hub, services and resources to system/app to make the hub working
[BlackBerry Priv] wolfgart:
BlackBerry Hub_com.blackberry.hub_1.1.0.4753_V139.apk

BlackBerry Resources_com.blackberry.resources_1.5.0.178_V6.apk

Services_com.blackberry.infrastructure_1.1.0.29142_V139.apk

these 3 apk, right ?
[BlackBerry Priv] sieerra:
Yup, just push to system.
[BlackBerry Priv] amandreamartino:
Thanks.

I've found that uploaded patched hub is different from mine.

I'm using this one

com.blackberry.hub_1.0.1.4059.apk from "Priv Apks.zip" found on this thread.

Name of uploaded patch is different.

Just done, installed three apks in system/app and rebooted device but Hub it ask me to always "update bb services" to run :(

I'm on 5.1.1
[BlackBerry Priv] sieerra:
I'm on 5.1.1 too. Did you uninstalled old apk's? Make sure you completely remove everything. Try clearing data of Hub and reinstall.
[BlackBerry Priv] wolfgart:
i've not uninstalled only bb keyboard

Off topic, but [MENTION=6925908]TowersVault[/MENTION], you're a legend now: the man who got BlackBerry APKs working on other Android devices. Nice work.
[BlackBerry Priv] sieerra:
That's why you get that popup message. Uninstall 3 apk's I gave you from system/app then reboot and reinstall it.

path to clear Hub data ?

---------- Post added at 09:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 PM ----------

No keyboard is not the part of this, only remove Hub, Services, Resources and reinstall it. (system/app)

[BlackBerry Priv] gheyghey:
im sorry im quite new to this. I have root access, titanium backup and other tools

how to I install something directly to system/apps and also what permissions do I need to set for this?
[BlackBerry Priv] hucar13:
I'm using Galaxy Nexus. and I cannot install the apps that you said above. Cause of my phone or doing something wrong?
[BlackBerry Priv] Bucika:
I've pushed the 3 apks in the system.. changed permissions to rw-r--r-- when i open HUB I get the message to install the service.. what am I doing wrong? I have N6 on 6.0
[BlackBerry Priv] TowersVault:
Bumping you to Android Authority, but here you go, this should help.
[BlackBerry Priv] sieerra:
I don't expect this to work with Marshmallow builds. Or maybe you installed incorrectly idk I'm running 5.1.1 on GS6
[BlackBerry Priv] Bucika:
I can confirm that only hub is installed correctly... I've installed the resources the normal way.. but I cant install services.. so damn! :/
[BlackBerry Priv] wolfgart:
me too.

LG V10 5.1.1
[BlackBerry Priv] sieerra:
Remove all blackberry related stuff and push all the apk to system/app m8 it's the cleanest way.
[BlackBerry Priv] gheyghey:
When you mean push all do you mean the entire folder of mega

I did the 3 you said to earlier and hub works great on lgg3 5.01 rooted

Only problem now when I try to add new email address it asks me to point to a certificate which I don't have installed. Going to have to do that now

Thank you so much
[BlackBerry Priv] Bucika:
I did that.. It's weird the apps don't install if I put them in system/app the HUB does, but that is the only thing..
[BlackBerry Priv] dug3001:
thank you, I read the tutorial.

to put the application in the system / app folder, we must install the aplication normally. but when I run the apk installation does not succeed ... how to have a successful installation? thank you in advance.

Envoyé de mon SM-N910F en utilisant Tapatalk
[BlackBerry Priv] sieerra:
Not the entire folder of course. Only hub,services,resources. this 3 apk.

You don't have to choose certificate you can normally login. (also if you have phone verificafion turned on when logging to email, turn it off.)
[BlackBerry Priv] Bucika:
I did push only those 3.. but only the Hub is installed.. I don't know why the resources and services don't install that way.. but I was able to install the resources normal way (just clicked on the .apk and installed.) but services are no go. So basically all I need is a way to install services, to get the hub working on 6.0.
[BlackBerry Priv] gheyghey:
You don't want to install any of those files the normal way. The only way it's been able to work so far is if you make them a system app. To do that first make sure you uninstall everything. Also ensure you have root. Now copy and paste those three files to the /system/apps folder. Now individually change the permissions of each file to

rw

r

r

I used es file explorer. Reboot and you should be good to go

Btwi also installed calendar this way and it seems to work. I tried BlackBerry launcher as well but it seemed to crash services

I think that creating a email address with hub for a exchange account doesnt work. I havent gotten my work emails to sync with this.
[BlackBerry Priv] wolfgart:
do you have correctly installed Hub ? Ho did ?
[BlackBerry Priv] Likalnik:
Correct, it doesnt work on exchange...I just create my primary gmail and work ok, also sms and calls...but FB and exchange email doesnt work...I can create/log in account but sync doesnt work...any idea why? this is great app but if I cant use all my accounts than it makes no sense to use it:(

How to install keyboard? the same like BB Hub...copy/paste under system/app and change permission? because I got FC when chose BB keyboard under settings
[BlackBerry Priv] minhas729:
I moved hub services and resources apks to system/app set permissions.. Reboot.. Hub was installed.. When i open that and click the login..

Services force stop error appears..

What wrong am i doing?

Permissions were fine .. Have done that before many times

[BlackBerry Priv] wolfgart:
the same for me here.

LG V10 TMobile 5.1.1.
[BlackBerry Priv] Metalshadowx2:
Yes I do have it installed. Yes it does force close but you just have to swipe over and skip that

Yeah I got this mainly for my work emails. It works somewhat but I guess in the end gotta by the priv for the complete experience. My only problem my carrier doesn't have jt and in Canada it's 1,000 bucks. Oh well gotta wait and get one used

Download this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...edphx.deviceid

And tell us the device id and codename. Then we should be able to grab the apk's off the Play Store.

Or after grabbing the device id and codename, in chrome browser on laptop/pc install this add on, fill up the above details which u got from apk :

Guys i just want to confirm something. I have Hub installed already and im using it just fine. My question is.. how can i make it appear by swiping up then right? coz when i swipe up it only shows the google button only.. no Hub going to the right.
[BlackBerry Priv] FirefighterDown:
If anyone (maybe @TowersVault) is using a different apk recompile or decompiler than APK studio and wants to see if Contacts can recompile then here's the untouched apk: https://mega.nz/#!LYFgSQxR!Red-YMexStRmtaXoEokK8YgIAFTlfQuQstIJ7IRC6U8

The error in APK studio:

Error: Resource is not public. (at 'enabled' with value '@android:bool/config_enable_puk_unlock_screen'

That means the resources it's trying to use to recompile is not public. It appears BlackBerry hasn't saved a copy within the APK which is what is recommended by Google. Either that or APK studio cannot access it, maybe other apk compiling systems can?
[BlackBerry Priv] TowersVault:
Odd, I'll see if I can get it to work. I use ApkTool and SignApk to repackage the APK'S.
[BlackBerry Priv] wolfgart:
why in your opinion on my LG 5.1.1 device if i can to push 3 apks (services, resources,hub) into system/app and give them right rw r r permissions, and after rebooted device i've "Blackberry resources has Stopped" message looped ?

i've just uninstalled everything BB related before push them files to System...
[BlackBerry Priv] raimondomartire:
Make a logcat to see this. Without this info is hard reply
[BlackBerry Priv] wolfgart:
i'll do this
[BlackBerry Priv] FirefighterDown:
Just checked more applications and the following untouched apks work if pushed to system/apps. You need root access + to chmod permissions.

BlackBerry Hub

BlackBerry Notes

BlackBerry Tasks

BlackBerry Contacts
[BlackBerry Priv] wolfgart:
It needs resources and services too to working properly i suppose

Inviato dal mio LG-H901 utilizzando Tapatalk
[BlackBerry Priv] FirefighterDown:
yes

So pretty much every application APK works other than:

BlackBerry Camera

DTEK

Privacy Dashboard

All three likely requires libraries.
[BlackBerry Priv] xtremez:
So just to confirm this will only work on devices that are running 5.1.1. 6.0 wouldn't work?

can you confirm to me using stock BB Calendar widget you are unable to use Month view widget ? I only see 3x3 day widget
[BlackBerry Priv] FirefighterDown:

Permission for camera like this:

Right? :D

Outlook and Facebook accounts don't show up.

All this is fine because I never intended to use these applications on a day to day basis. I just wanted to use the apps before committing close to $1000 for a BlackBerry Priv. I'm happy with what I've seen so far, will be buying.
