[APPS][4.0.3+] Stock ICS Launcher, Calendar and Messaging (SMS/MMS) apps!

Timmmmmm · Apr 7, 2012

Due to the total lack of ICS apps in Samsung's release of ICS for the Galaxy S2 I decided to compile some of them myself.

This is a fair bit of work, because the stock Android apps won't compile as SDK apps (i.e. a standard APK that you can upload to the market) because they contain lots of references to private data and APIs. Removing/fixing these references takes a while, and in one case was not possible.

But anyway, I have now finished (more or less) three of these apps!

Calendar: Market, APK

Launcher: Market, APK

Messaging: Market, APK

All tested on Galaxy S2 and seem to work.

NB: As in the Apex launcher, the widget-adding experience is not totally correct. This is due to a stupid permissions thing. More details in the market links.

If you like these, consider donating to me! I may do more if anyone actually does... but I remain dubious!

Thank you for your work. It has long sought such a calendar. Built-in does not suit me. I will wait for its development.

So I deleted (backed up actually) the stock Galaxy one which is called TouchWizCalendar.apk. The put in this one and works fine.

One question. I have a 3rd party widget that shows the calender events on the home screen. When I click on it, it doesnt open the calendar anymore. Its set to open the default calendar.

Sort of have the same issue if you try to say "View Calendar" from an invite you got on an email, it tries to open what it thought was the original default calendar, but cant, so the phone just vibrates then basically the Email app itself just crashes.

How do I force this 4.0.3 AOSP calendar to be the default one?

GALAXY s2

el de mensajeria instalo bien pero noce lo que pasa cuando mando un mensaje el receptor recibe dos veces voy a configuracion pero no encuentro el problema que podria ser el problema? porfavor me pueden ayudar

So maybe I'm an idiot but I can't figure out how to run the messaging app. After install I still only have one 'Messaging' in my apps list and it's the stock Samsung one....
What am I missing?

Edit: I was an idiot

Figured it out.
Unfortunately the app both receives and sends duplicate messages, so it's not really useful right now.

Great!
Calendar seams to work as it should on S2 running LP4 (running it for 10 mins now). Greatly appreciated !!

MMS FCing when sending picture messages

FYI. The Mms.apk seems to FC when sending or recieving picture messages. Not sure if anyone else has experienced this?

I love these! I hope you will make the contact and phone app too. Highly anticipated!

original

I read that Samsung release its kernel for ICS
if so, will be possible to compile the source of the original of ICS
add google samsung kernel and thus have
a totally original ICS as is that of google?

I love these apps, but I get a force close when pressing the forward option in the messaging app.

Can you fix this please? I'm on a Samsung galaxy s2 with Android 4.0.3

Thanks

I too am getting a force close when forwarding. I'm trying to get into contact with the developer.

Finally! Now that I've got ICS on my Galaxy SII, I can have a more complete feel with your apks. Thanks so much, I can't stand TouchWiz. Any chance at getting the dialer, contacts, and perhaps even call screen available as well?

vmartinez39 · Jun 13, 2012

Yes!!!!

Can finally get rid of the MMS Stock App of GS2.

Will try it when I get home.

WunSick · Jun 13, 2012

I would love to see more of these such a Phone and Contacts, awesome work so far, super happy with a real launcher and real messaging haha.

webjunky · Jun 13, 2012

i agree that the apps/widgets on a samsung poor ,

comeing from a HTC device i must say there's a big differents.
i would love to see the HTC kind of wodgets on a SGS2 without the need of a nother launcher.
