Google Apps without the ROM addon ?


Recommended Posts

Hi there,

I have a smartbook surfer 360, which is basically the same as the Advent Vega, but with intefrated 3G.

As I don`t want to use the ROM Addon because of the chance that 3G wont work afterwards i am looking for another way to get the google apps on it.

I do already have the market, you tube and maps app, but i still need the contacts- and gmail apps. Also i do have a calendar app already on the unit, which seems to be the original Google one, but cannot enter a new appointment, every time i try the app tells me, that i don`t have any caöendar, i assume this is also because it doesn`t synch with Google.

Anyone any idea ?

Just download the R6 addon, unpack it if it's in rar format. Then look in files/system/app and all the apk's you require are there.

Hope this helps you

Can you 'access' the Market yet because I thought you had to have Gmail running first? If you can you can download from Gmail from the Market but your device needs to be rooted first. If no Market then it can be downloaded from here according to a Google blog I just visited.

Yes, Market can be used without problems, but gmail doesn`t appear on it.

I will try the solution with the extracted Addon, thanks for the help.

Will tell later if it had worked.

Just a short note to let you know that the aps from the extracted addon had worked, many thanks again !
