So everyone (particularly other Aussies) knows, rooting and uninstalling the buggy apps below from the Optus rom seems to have significantly improved my battery life, as well as caused the phone to stop slowing down significantly after a few days:
DirectoryAssist
GOTO_Altitude <- I think this one or the last one is the mobile tv app that kept crashing all the time, particularly on APN changes...a lot of the rest are just shortcuts...
Optus App Store
Optus Games
Optus Mobile TV
Optus Zoo
Optus Music
Revolver
TrueCountry
TV 1.0
To uninstall them you need to root with z4root. I then used the free version of Uninstaller for Root from the market to back up the APKs and remove them.
Highly recommend this for all Optus users...phone is working much, much better now.
Once I work out how to restore 2.2s default tethering (or discover it's impossible and find a good app store app) I will remove the buggy wifi app too...

As an optional alternative to the above, I flashed the GB Retail SBF, removed all of the motobloat apps (social networking, weather, news, widgets, messaging, etc keeping the google versions), installed a new launcher (in my case ADW) and then removed the motoblur home 2.2.
Flashing the GB SBF also got rid of that stupid Optus boot animation
Any and all lag is completely gone, battery lasts more than 24 hours with moderate usage (browsing, calls, gtalk, email, etc).
Runs pretty damn nice, stable 1.25ghz @ 62VSEL using milestone overclock.
EDIT: added battery comment.
Shellite, did you get back the standard android 2.2 tethering by doing that?
Sent from my MotoA953 using XDA App
Unfortunately, no. It did not restore the standard 2.2 tethering.
To be honest, while it would be nice, I wouldn't really use tethering much anyway.
Can some one point me to the australian sbf? Love to get rid of this vodaphone [email protected]
Any detailed instructions on how to do it as well? Or will the Brazilian instructions in this forum do the trick? Yes i'm totally new to this but that been said I am very computer-literate so it's more cautiousness than not knowing what i'm actually doing...
Sent from my MotoA953 using XDA App
The only Australian SBF is the Optus one which I requested in another forum whom uploads them to and-developers..
I will PM you some information as you should request they upload your Vodafone SBF before you start flashing others to your phone
The GB Retail rom is the best if you want unbranded goodness. I will PM you the link to this also, but as I said, hold off flashing it.
Thanks! Much appreciated.
My M2 came with GB firmware and I flashed the Optus firmware just for a look, it was ok except for Yes Optus boot animation plus a horrible Optus wallpaper and the Optus apps of course.
I now have the French sbf as it is MILS2_U6_2.3.4
Optus is MILS2_U6_2.2.19
and UK is MILS2_U6_2.2.16

foreman31, I just flashed the GB sbf and seems clean (phone portal works as well over wifi). Have you noticed any differences between the FR vs GB?

not really, it has AZERTY keyboard is all, when you press Q it types A and vice versa.
Does the GB firmware have data and battery manager in settings?
@shellite: could you please elaborate on how you got rid of the motoblur apps and the motoblur homescreen? Also, is that permanent (does factory reset bring it back?)
@foreman: yes both data and battery manager options are shown in settings.

You cant get rid of Motoblur until Angrdroid finished FissionROM since there are too many links between the BLUR Apps.. an alternative would be.. to use a Launcher such as LauncherPro and ADW.Launcher or the Android2.3 Launcher PORT to 2.2 .. those 3 are the best ive seen.. (GDE is kinda funny aswell but seems Cheap (looks crappy sometimes .)) but i recommend ADW &LauncherPro this will replace MotoBlurHomescreen and Appdrawer has some cool 3D Effects etc.. wich runs WAY better than Blur.. But its impossible to remove Blur yet, i tryed it believe me... its because blur has own system apps.. and also i couldnt find the StockAndroid ones.. so i couldnt replace them .. im not that skilled.. all i did yet is Porting DarkEdge theme to Milestone2 Deodexed but thats all =)

Can I ask how long it took for Optus to deliver your Milestone 2 after you put in the order?
I re-contracted online, but there is some "problem" with the Milestone 2's that is delaying them being sent out (they have stock mind you)...did you encounter this or a delay by any chance?
Cheers

Initially, after rooting the phone (using z4root) I used Titanium Backup to delete the motoblur applications I did not want... eg;
com.motorola.photowidget 2.2
ContactsUnconnected 2.2
Date and Time 2.2
ES Musica
Help Centre 2.2
HipHop Official 2.0whatever
Home screen tips 2.2

Quick Contacts 2.2
Revolver TV
Rock On Altitude
Social Messaging 2.2
Social Messaging Service 2.2
Social Networking 2.2
Social Sharing 2.2
Social Status 2.2
Toggle Widgets 2.2
TrueCountry
Weather 2.2
World Clock 1.0
... I'm sure you get the idea, since testing out Titanium Backup I decided to buy the full version, after flashing the UK SBF to my phone, I used it to 'freeze' the packages rather than delete them (leaving me the option to enable them at a whim if desired).
There are more that belong on the above list which I have frozen... eg; I installed ADW Launcher and then 'froze' Home 2.2
My battery easily lasts more than a days use now, with calls, games, google reader, etc.. its also overclocked to 1.25ghz @ 62VSEL stable, I am now happy with my phone (I actually nursed it along for 2 days last week!)
I could give you my full list via PM if this helps.
Thanks shellite!
Im kinda new to android so i still have to learn much about roots and roms, but your post helped a lot!

I ordered it on the first day they became available, before they'd even turned up on the personal website (the guys on the phone were happy to sell me one). I think that was a Tuesday...it was delivered on a Thursday. They'd essentially promised me it would arrive in 48 hours (I didn't believe them at the time) and it pretty much did. I was quite impressed with the turnaround...
I wasn't recontracting though...transferred from TPG...

Nice...wonder why/how they have developed some "problem" now :-(
Oh well, hopefully will get it soon :/
Just watch the box when you get it. It doesn't have an obvious front, and if you open it upside down the phone will fall out (onto the hard tile floor in my case). It was totally fine, but I wasp pretty ****ty about it at the time...
This may sound silly but seen as it's my first time doing this I need to make sure the process is correct.
Is this the correct way to load the GB SBF onto my M2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914071
Obviously that thread talks about the Brazilian firmware, but I'm assuming the process is the same regardless of firmware region?
I have the Vodafone SBF now so I'm good to go...
I hope these don't come off too n00b-ish, I'm not new to Android nor to rooting phones. I had an Evo and was on Sprint when I realized that...hey, Sprint's service sucks, so I came back to Ma Bell since they finally got an Android device worth buying (no offense to others, but the Aria is way too small)
Anyway, my first question is do any of these ROMs up right now have sideloading capabilities yet?
Second, coming off of the Evo I had Sense 1.0 and it automatically linked my contact card to my Facebook through Facebook for Sense, but Sense 2.0 doesn't do that, is there a way to link my picture/contact card to Facebook?
Third, speaking of which, anyone else have problems with the Facebook App? It doesn't show my picture on my profile and half of the time doesn't load a lot of user pictures.
And last, HTC released Swype for the Evo, is there any plans of the I4G/DHD getting the keyboard too? I mainly use Better Keyboard but liked having Swype at times.
No one can answer these?
To my knowledge, every Rom here has sideloading enabled.
I only ran Sense for a few hours so I can't answer that. Sorry lol.
Facebook works fine for me.
Once you have sideloading enabled, search Google for the swype beta and install it. Bam.

You people and your damn AOSP. lol. Thanks for response, not sure what is wrong with my Facebook, it did come pre-installed, once I get rooted I may just need to reinstall it from the marketplace and it should work.
The facebook app that came preinstalled on my I4G wouldn't show my or some other pics either so I gotta say that it has to do with something that the stock rom had. I'm on CM7 right now but I remember that I was able to automatically see my pic anywhere that the stock sense apps had an entry for the owner's pic, like the messages app, contacts, etc.
I'm running stock 2.3.3 and I'm still on the old market software (2.3.4). Will my handset update to the new market automatically? Are there any benefits to the new market besides the improve GUI? (I'm desperately hoping the search is improved!)
As much I'd like the fancy new look of the new market, I'm wary of updating due to the new auto-update feature in case my phone has a dodgy eMMC. Is there anyway to disable the auto-update feature before it gets chance to start?
Please note, the new market is very very slow...
Not much of an upgrade apart from the visual changes

The earlier versions of the new market were slow, eg 3.1.5, but the new one is much better, i.e. 3.3.11
Plus, the new version prevents simultaneous installs and crashes, with apps being installed sequentially. I've been flashing new ROMs with the new market, and my apps all reinstall automatically, i've never faced a hangup yet!
Plus, the new market gives you a one-click abort to stop installation of all apps in one go... unlike the old one where you had to cancel each app one by one... Also, there is the option to only update when on wifi. Saves mobile data package and if you have that option checked, and you're not on wifi, your apps wont update at all!!
I would definitely recommend the new market.
The good news is that the new version had a setting to disable auto updates.
The bad news is that Oli is right. For the sake of a fancy UI, it's slower, laggy, and will frequently tell you updates are available for apps when in fact they are not. The latest version 3.3.11 is slightly better than previous efforts, but i still have to abort updates, clear data, and get false update notifications.
If you are on stock and not rooted, google will be pushing this polished turd onto your phone soon.

Yeah, I forgot to mention that wnp
It is slightly better with the new 3.3.11 compared to 3.x.x but could still do with a speed boost!
Market 3.2.0 was just released a few days ago! Wonder what changes it brings!
@enigmaamit wow never knew that! So are you saying that it could be safe to hit auto update on all apps, as it does it one by one? No more chance of a fried Emmc chip?

Yup, i've updated around 15 apps at one go, and the install occurs sequentially instead of simultaneously.
No issues so far (four different ROM flashes with the new market)
The biggest issue for me with the 3.x markets is that "compatibility check" of the application with the device registered. Since there are not too many of you complaining, I presume you are not using a non-standard screen density. If you do it, market will show for many application the "application is not compatible..." message and you're not allowed to download it. 240 screen density (standard for HDPI devices) is too big for my taste, I prefer something like 200-210. In this case alot of applications designed for HDPI cannot be installed (Skype for ex is one of them, but there are many).
Adding this on top of the slowness of the new market, makes me using the "old" 2.3.6 version which is perfect. Unfortunately this version was giving FCs with the ICS ROM I've tested (the alpha from superkid) so I am wondering if it will work at all on ICS or I should be forced to upgrade to the latest market (which is something I don't want).
If somebody finds out a way to bypass this compatibility check, please share, it is very annoying
Thanks for your input guys. I think I'm going to wait until the new market is pushed to my phone. Hopefully by then some more of the bugs might have been worked out. I'm in no rush.
Does the T-Mobile G2x come with the Carrier IQ rootkit installed? If so, I'd like to block it. I'm running a rooted Android 2.2.2 (I like the camera) and don't want to do anything that would prevent me from possibly upgrading to ICS should it become available. So where do the stock rom users stand?
-roadtrip72-
I would also like some more information on this. I'm running CM7, but what of the other stockish ROMs? Is this something that is removed by the devs?
Well they did have LogMeIn apps installed in the stock roms, but didn't have actual launcher icons for them... kinda scary.
CM7 based roms won't have anything like this installed as they are built from the ground up. Stock-based roms, which I don't think so, still could. Would be nice to get a real answer.
Ok so I have been researching this for the G2x and not really found much positive test results. I'm currently running 2.3.3 stock everything and I downloaded the apk from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17612559&postcount=110
From my results the main apk for ciq was not found and nothing ran nor was logged. So I guess no, the g2x stock doesnt have ciq installed. Anyone else confirm this?
Well you can always check and or get rid of the Carrier IQ thing that tracks your information.
You need a rooted phone to do so and then go here to download the app because it is not on the android market.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=110
*Note: do a backup of your phone before you do this just incase. I haven't checked if its on our phones just yet but more than likely it probably is
**Update: Having trouble with the app on my g2x with stock rom/faux froyo kernel.05. It keeps giving an "Error copying Busybox" so the App won't update to the pro version that you need. Waiting for Dev response
Does not look to me like CiQ is on the 2.3.4 Rom, but it is possible it may be on the 2.3.3 Rom... Most concerned about LMIRescue.apk and LMIRescueSecurity.apk ... both of those are troubleshooting apps for T-Mobile which in the past has been suggested stands for "LogMeIn"... sounds a lot like ciq or similar. These files were not included in the 2.3.4 Tracfone leak. I have not, however, actually checked a running 2.3.3 with the tools TrevE offered. I did check my copy of the 2.3.4 and it did not find the CiQ service or binary. That is not to say it may not be obfuscated in such a way that TrevE's tool isn't aware of yet though.
However, one thing to note is that a couple of the app usage logs it pulls up I am pretty sure are NOT related to CiQ, and have been around in almost every build of Android since the beginning - specifically the log that tells how much time you've spent in each app. What is IMPORTANT is, is there an app on the phone that's sending the data. That, I can't say for sure.
I saw that article on CNN and was like effing great. After I rooted my phone and saw that logmein crap I froze that right away, lol. Somehow didn't sit with me. Android is great, but let me tell you do NOT trust Google and what they do. I am convinced there's something underlying and sinister about them.
Google=Android
Cell phone=giving up your privacy
I'm going to freeze that lmi crap thing now as well.
I garuantee the g2x has the ciq but its probably hidden or it IS somehow related to logmein. 1984 wasnt a story it was a prophecy. Scary indeed.
And I'm on stock froyo and rooted.
meh...
No CIQ in 2.3.4 but it collects usage stats and periodically sends them to Google. Not sure how to stop that behavior. Also, many of the apps in the Android market use Google's SDK to collect their own usage stats and the apps send them to the devs. They say it is to improve their apps. That is why most apps have permission for network data, even though the app doesn't require network data to work.

Its A work around. But I install Lbe and droidwall or prdroid. With pdroid and Droidwall you can lock down pretty much all services (need root). Lbe is OK but not nearly as good as pdroid. This of course would be ideal for your random Apps that abuse internet use or private data
Was wondering if anyone has made a comprehensive list of bloatware that is safe to uninstall for the I727R yet? I've used a couple of roms, and they're great, just not as stable as the stock.
Would love to remove *all* the bloat from my device, just don't know which ones are 100% safe to trash yet....
Also, from what I've read, I can just change the kernel if I want to oc, right? What's a good kernel for that? Da_og?

Two that come to mind off the top of my head
Da_G oc kernal
or
faux123 oc kernal
I've had no problems with either one, but only have limited experience with them.
And those are pretty stable on the Rogers offering? Sorry for the 20 questions, but I'm a novice at best with Android... and this device in particular doesn't seem to have a lot of material that lends itself to inspire absolute confidence in someone of my level of understanding, lol

I have not tried these kernals with stock rogers gingerbread, but from what I have read around these forums it sounds fairly stable.
if it were me I would just try it; and see if you can get it nice and stable thats the fun of flashing around.

If you think it might be bload but you aren't sure just go into titanium backup and freeze it. It is the exact same but if you run into problems later just unfreeze it and its right back on your phone. If it turns out you really dont need it then just unistall it
I'm running the ATT bln mod kernel on ATT hardware but a rogers rom and I have no issues.

After flashing the TPC v3 rom, here are my list of frozen apps. I've also got a lot of third party apps to replace stock launcher/dialer/keyboard/etc.... so I've frozen the stock ver of those.
I'll repeat the advise stated earlier in the thread, use Titanium Backup to freeze the apps instead of removing them completely until you're sure you don't need those.

Nice list
One suggestion: TwLauncher, I'm pretty sure if you were to do a factory reset phone would crash after the inital setup(language blah blah).
Second thing, I've frozen secphone.apk for some time with no ill effects(not sure what it does). Could be screenshot service?
big thanks tom! Now if I can only figure out why this bleeding device keeps frying SD cards... 3rd one onside of a month! WTF?!?

Groovy, thanks xda, tom. I was holding off flahing any new roms... but with the card issues, as well as reading the rave reviews of TPC's rom, I'm going to give it a run tonight.
Also, I'll name my first partition after you~
Great
Great list - just rooted, purchased TB, and froze almost all of the above mentioned (except TwLauncher and related).
Seemed to free up a lot of available ram on my SGS2 LTE.
Next step would be trying out 'roms', which I have next to none knowledge of.
Or just wait for the official OTA update coming up in a month or two...
honestly rogers doesnt put as much bloatware on the phone as att does to their version. I removed more Samsung bloatware then rogers bloatware when I was running stock. I'm now running CocaColaClassic and it works flawlessly on my Rogers GS2LTE i727r plus when he updates his rom he includes a update zip. I've tried every single rom and thats the best, cyanogenmod 7 is the second best rom available. Though this is my opinion. Also I use LauncherPro instead of twlauncher (find it much more efficient and faster)
Whats better on Coke than TPCs? Just curious

Freezing apps with TB doesn't free up any memory:
here is a relevant excerpt from TB Technical Guidline
17. Does “freezing” apps free space from phone memory ?
No, it doesn’t. The “frozen” app remains on the phone with its data, it’s just that the app gets completely disabled until you “defrost” it.
