I'm looking for the mobile banking app that comes preloaded on the Captivate. I lost it when flashing to another rom. Does someone have the apk file?
Thanks!
I have a nandroid backup of stock everything so if no one has it, I can pull it off that

Thanks! I'm trying to extract it from the one-click stock rom. It shows up in appbrain, but I get the "requested item not found" error message when I click on it. I'll try changing my carrier code with MarketAccess. Maybe that will make a difference.
I am looking for this too! Anyone?
May want to think twice before asking a forum for a copy of a mobile banking app. Just my 2c.
Here is the apk.

Didn't most banks pull their mobile banking apps for security reasons?

I've never heard that. I think most of Canada's banks have them. TD's is still up. I use it all the time. I know Scotiabank has one. Not sure about the rest.

Ok, I rooted the phone, now I want to get rid of all of the T-Mobile bloatware and cant figure out how to do this. Is there a guide anywhere that a kind soul could direct me to?
I also do not use T-Mobile. I use Simple Mobile. I would like to take out the Access Point for T-Mobile under mobile network settings. Does anyone know how to do this? Any assistance with either will be very much appreciated.
And if it matters, I did flash the ROM to the "leaked gingerbread". If I need to go back to factory can I do that?
Thanks! Mahgninnuc

Use titanium backup from the market, it lets u remove system apps. I think there's a thread of safe apps to remove.
Apn backup/restore app lets u delete apns I think.
Yes, stock nandroid restore will bring u back. Use your own or download it from dev subforum.

Didnt buy the premium version But got the WiFi calling off with another app. Root Uninstaller. WiFi calling was ALWAYS on and I couldn't turn it off. I suspect this was a major reason my battery was draining so fast.
Now to get rid of some of the other bloatware. Thanks again!
You can use any root file explorer to access the /system/app directory and just delete the appropriate apk files.
As always, have a stable nandroid backup handy on your sdcard. You never know when you'll need it.
Got APN off
I found Chee Wee's APN controller in the market and was able to remove the T-Mo APN fully from my phone. Now I don't have my APN switching from Simple Mobile to T-Mo whenever it wants.
Now to find an effective root program to get rid of the rest of the T-Mo junk.
Thanks for all of your assistance folks. I"ll get this mastered yet

ok so you know when you block ads and you get that annoying green android guy and all that text crap? while i was looking around i found a framework-res.apk that removes the text and only shows the green guy. it works in apps too. but im afraid to flash it because idk what it will do to my phone. because it was for a whole different phone. if somebody could look at the framework-res.apk and tell me the code used that would be great. could help me and others. thankyou.

i am intrigued on this. using a Android phone with out using a google account.... hmmm
ha, is this for real... hilarious. you could just make a random gmail account that you never access, so that you can use the android market.
but really, you don't even need the market to install adfree. just google it.
or do you not use google either... in that case, yahoo! it.

Since buying an android, Google decided to reinvent itself as an Identity Service, and some people might not be too keen on the bait-and-switch. Android != Google.

Tired of having to type in a password or PIN into your phone just because your Corporate Email account requires it? I know I am.
This modified Email.apk is for the Galaxy S2 Skyrocket, and will allow you to bypass the password, and possibly other exchange security policies, simply because, when it evaluates the policy to see if it is active, it always returns that it is. And so, when it checks to see if your PIN is active, it simply thinks it is, and continues to go about it's business as normal.
To install do the following:
Code:
adb shell mount -o remount rw /system
adb push Email.apk /system/app/Email.apk
adb shell rm /system/app/Email.odex
adb reboot
YMMV, I am not responsible if you get fired for circumventing your company's Exchange Policies.

You can also do this with Enhanced Email available in the market. I think it works on rooted and unrooted.

I put in my phone number to purchase that free app and stupid Amazon simply sent me a link to download their Amazon App instead of the Enhanced Email.
Cool, but just an FYI.
If your company is using Good Mobile, you're best not to run this. Good looks for rooted/jailbroken devices and flags them/remote wipes/shuts them down.
If they're not running Good Mobile, then you're fine
just reboot your phone after the delete and re-install. It works great for me.
That sucks. Its so nice nit having to enter the code. However, I do agree with the earlier post that Stock app is better. Its nice to trigger out of office reply from my phone.

I am a GFE user with a rooted device and have not experienced this.
Perhaps it's a policy set by your GFE admin.
It would suck to not be able to root your phone.
I loaded the .apk onto my SD card and tried installing it via Astro file manager, but it keeps telling me 'application not installed'. Am I going about this the right way? Do I have to delete the original email.apk in order to install this one?

Its one of the very basic functions of Good. I DO work for the gov't though so I'm sure they're a bit more active than a private company.

Correct, it's a policy that needs to be enabled on the server side. My company uses GFE and does not currently have a policy against jailbroken/rooted devices. I'm pretty sure it does make note of those "offending" devices though.

This is not true. If your company has a policy in place to do this through Good then sure, in your case it might be true. But certainly not in all cases.

Quick question:
If I root my SR and flash a custom ROM that has all the apps deodexed can I rename Email-GIIs-Skyrocket.apk to email.apk and just overwrite the original?
Added flashable zip to first post.
Might be more of a google market question, but thought I would start here.
I have 1 MT4GS with 90 or so apps, getting a second MT4GS. Most apps are market, but some from other spots. Is there a way to massively update/download the apps I have on current phone to new phone. In the past, I have just downloaded them one at a time from market.
Thanks in advance...
Possibly
Just an idea, you could make a backup of your current mt4gs and then restore it on the new one? Ive never tried it but I dont see why it wouldnt work
Your google account should keep record of your downloaded apps and redownload on the next device you sign in on... Usually...

I know with previous phones this didn't work. I would connect to my same account with the new phone, but it wouldn't show that I had apps loaded. Example, the eBay app would not show installed, I would have to load like it was a new app install. It would be great if that would do that, or it would show 90 updates to be applied. But I haven't done this in a while, maybe newand improved market will allow. I guess I will find out when I get receive the 2nd phone.
Thanks..
Well if your rooted and your next phone is rooted then you can use titanium backup to backup all your apps. If you CWM installed on both then you can make a nandroid backup and either restore it on the new one or use appextractor to restore the apps. But if your not then your best bet is let Google restore the apps that it does and manually resinstall the ones that it doesn't.
all of your payed for apps will certainly appear in the market under my apps and you can just go thru clicking on them one after another after another. the ones that were free though, i dont know any quick/easy way. i'm sure theres an app that will track all your downloaded apps regardless of if they were free or not.
The market website actually keeps a log of every app you downloaded. You can then send them right to your phone from there.

This is what I'm seeing, it show my paid for apps, but not the freebees. FYI - first phone is not rooted, second one is..
I also logged into google and google market on the pc hoping to see 'my apps', but no luck there..
So looks like a download at a time..
Thanks all for your inputs...
That is odd. I still have stuff on the Web Based Market list that I haven't used since my old craptastic Behold II 2 years ago.

I've done this before with my old MT4G. I would just flash a backup of my previous phone onto my warranty replacements... So I can say it does work....
roms make a difference
I have been trying out different roms and they act different with Market.
These 2 work like I mentioend before, only show bought apps:
Bulletproof
Doubleshot Lite 1.2.4
But this one does an auto download of all my past downloaded apps, very cool.
RootzWiki and install Undeadk9's ICS-splashed ROM: RubiX_ICS_v5.3_release-keys_signed
I used this tool to debloat the apps that i could not disable. I think caution should be used. Maybe we can list the ones that we've blocked...
I've got 69 apps blocked for now
It took me a while to find the export on the tool (Right click on the "Read Device Packages" to get to it) Thanks Misterxtc
Here is my list. It's all Verizon except wifi hotspot and setup wizzard, knox, amazon, loggers, OTA update and a few other misc bloat files. 52 apps in all. Load it with the debloat tool.

It won't hurt. It doesn't affect the battery on or off because it's idle and not running in the background until you use it or trip it.

You mentioned in another thread that we need to debloat to block OTA's, could you be more specific please? Which apps in particular should do the trick if de-bloated? I'm not sure I'm ready to just blanket debloat, but I sure as hell don't want to lose FoxFi Wi-Fi tethering capability while we're w/o root.

EDIT: Is hiding SDM.apk and SDMViewer going to block the OTA updates?

While this is true root could be possible in one of the fixes. I usually wait a little while to install updates for one to see if they cause more harm than good and two in hopes of root being found in a exploit. I've had more than one phone screwed over from updates so I choose to block it until it's at least confirmed working properly from other users. It saves the hassle of returning the phone to Verizon for a replacement at the very least.

That would be SPDClient.apk but those updates are harmless because a factory reset wipes them out. They are also uninstallable.
