Credits go to Android Police for getting this.

To install, I uninstalled the old app with titanium backup.. Then reboot and install the apk (Gmail_v4.2.apk)

There you go - pinch to zoom in Gmail!

Works perfectly for me on XXDLIB

UPDATE: Tylwith added a CWN flashable zip - attached (gmail4.2.zip)
UPDATE 2: travp624 made an inverted colours apk - attached (Gmail4.2-signed-aligned.apk)


Android Police have an article about the new features here http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...amped-attachments-better-navigation-and-more/

<Bump> Would also like to see this in the Android General topic. The APK should work on any ROOTED 4.04 and above system Possibly even 4.0.0

Here is how I installed this on wanam 3.7 (deodexed rom) You may have to find and delete .odex files on stock roms
(you may want to do a full backup in cwm first)

plug phone into usb cable from pc
Drag file from pc desktop to phone.
Run root explorer on phone (or a file manager with root access)
go to system/app
mount r/w
long press gmail2.apk
rename as gmail2.bak
mount r/o
now still in root explorer go to sdcard
press androidpolice_gmail2.apk and choose install from the package installer.
(Installs in data/app)
reboot phone

Enjoy pinch to zoom

If you want it in system/app find another guide :)

We took an hour or two to eat, type up instructions, make sure they work, and upload the mirrors. XDA, so quick to *****, judge, and feel entitled to everything. You don't know the full story. In fact, you don't know any of the story - all your theories are completely baseless.

"Keep mashing. They are milking the hell of out their previous stories. They don't care about users, they just want hits."

"That's how you can clearly see what kind off people they are."

Like little children. You make me sick.

Lulz that's a douchey thing to say considering at the very least 30% of your content originates from people on this board that hardly profit from their love of android. I never ever see the word exclusive coming out of here. You turned your "leak" into a three article circle jerk.
