I don't know about removing T-Mobile backup (unless if you want to reinstall it again)! Black Ice 2 needs it for contacts to sync! Off-topic, but of relative importance!

you can use Titanium backup to backup and restore contacts. i'm not sure if you want that service running in the background the whole time!
I've removed Tmobile backup. I have all my contacts saved on my gmail account, which sync's to my phone, so there is no need for the T-mobile stuff.
You can use Bloat Freezer (Paid) in the market, and use TitaniumBackup (Free or Paid) in the market to back up contacts if you want to remove T-Mobile Contacts Backup.
I just save my contacts onto my sd card by selecting "export to sd" and after I flash the new rom I just select " import from sd" and bam, all my contacts are back in place.

Use root uninstaller to get rid of anything you dont want.
use titanium backup make a backup and uninstall just in case u wanna re install and wrong forum to post this in honestly.
root app remover
or
Fast uninstaller
both work well. google for list of tmobile you can uninstall!
FotaFix also removes extra fota software you don't need in your on-phone memory
Yep, jst root and remove bloatware with titanium backup. But as the other guys said, dealwith ur contacts first.

Titanium backup doesn't work right on our Captivate...If you want it back the only way I know of is to use the Odin3 stock ROM restore...Look at the stickies in the development section..

Thanks for the response. I have done the Odin 3 restore before, just thought there was an easier way.
Not that I don't believe you, but I would think that the "remove AT&T bloatware" thread would have mentioned that Titanium backup doesn't work. Why bother uninstalling as opposed to deleting if you can't put it back.
Thanks for the news, even if it is not what i wanted to hear.
Although it cannot help you now, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734163 is the way to go. In layman's, it will image your phone for you to restore it in case something like this happens.
You would have had to make an image with the program still installed in order to restore it back, hence why it won't help you now. For future reference though, the options are endless with Rom Manager.
There is a stock rom floating around the forum, maybe someone can extract the app from it and you can sideload it.
Out of curiosity, why do you want it back? I will start removing the junk I don't want from my phone soon and this was one of those apps. Is there a bad sideeffect from removing it or you just simply want that feature back?
I will probably reflash again sometime soon, so no worries. It is easy enough.
The only reason i wanted it back was to use it in the DeskDock app - it is not a great widget on the home screen, but if you want to set weather or calendar in the DeskDock app, you need the widget.
Just got my sensation from walmart earlier after selling my mytouch on here and I'm trying to find the best method to use to restore apps without root atm. I haven't factory reset my mytouch so I still have it. What method have my fellow xda'ers used?
You tried titanium backup?

If you reinstall from Market, you'll have to find all the free apps on your own to reinstall them.
Issues including this are why I'll wait till it's unlocked and rooted. Apps like Titanium Backup are too good to live without.

I'm thinking I'm just gonna download apps I use on a daily basis and once root is out I'll restore them all
i just dont get why google dont provide its own app to backup the stuff locally with encryption... every time getting a new phone means losing all data, it is craps like this makes me appreciate the *god forbids* iphone and itune. hopefully the new unlock bootloader allows root to come out fast enough so i can just titanium backup and restore it
Mybackup Pro did work for me, but only just. It restored all the apps but w/o the data.Just an example: It restored my Acrobits VoIP software, but w/o my 3 SIP accounts, which I had to re-define manualy.
I use MyPhoneExplorer, wich gives You ability to backup/restore not only contacts, calendar, notes etc... but also applications. But, as paulmor said, in this app also, You can't backup settings in apps, but only the *.apk files (install files).
See my other post
Hey guys, I'm back with another question.
Little info about the phone first.
I'm running MikShift v1.01
Kernal 2.6.32.21-gbd7abbd
I'm not getting Sprint's Visual Voicemail on my phone. It just text me and says I have a new voicemail. Is there a way to add this on? I've tried downloading MikShift v1.1, but everytime I do, it still says v1.01
Also, I've downloaded cyanogen mod7. The only problem is, when I flash to it, none of my messages or contacts come with it. Is there a way to load these on once I transfer over?
One last question. Is there Kernal I'm running current? Or is there another one I should be running at this time?
Thanks in advance for your help. Will "thanks" with any info given.
Thanks again!
Well for the voicemail u have to get the sprint voicemail apk. And install that ..and if u want ur contacts saved u can use an app called my backup from the market or just go to ur contacts and then hit menu and export them to ur SD card. That exporting method works on sense and cm7 and whenever u wanna put ur contacts back just go to the contacts app and then hit menu and import the contacts from ur SD card
Edit : oh and for ur messages u can also back them up with that my backup app from the market.or just look for SMS backup or something

Ok. I just went ahead and went with google voice after reading some reviews. I want to avoid the constant error messages from Sprint.
As far as the backup methods you suggested, I tried "my backup" and did a complete backup. Then when I loaded cyanogen mod7, I went into file manager and attempted to load it. It started to reboot and it stopped at a triangle with an exclamation point inside of it and the android guy. It just say there for 10 minutes. So, I assumed that means something was wrong.
Any insight on this? Thanks for your help on this too!

I think I may give up on these CM roms. Maybe I'll just stick with the Mik roms. I don't have any problems with them. Plus, they should have a sense with GB up and going, bug free here soon.
I appreciate your help though!
I must have froze the wrong application in Titanium Backup, and now I can not get into the phone applications; the home button does not respond to bring up anything. I did have a backup in Dropbox. Is it possible to unfreeze the apps via my backup in dropbox?
Thanks

Umm.. That's NOT bricking your phone. Go check out GTGS ultimate unbricker. Done.

Well, I've managed to get the phone up and running by going into download mode, and then choosing delete user data.
This kept my SuperUser intact, the problem is trying to download Titanium Backup back to the phone. When I go to my android account, and try to re-download it, it tells me it is already installed.
Thanks

Try a root explorer. See if you can uninstall that way.
If not, do the whole thing. ALL the way back to stock. Then root 3e community kernel.. Yadada.

OK...I'm a believer. Got my Titanium Backup, backup and running. Ran the backup for all apps + data, and TB brought everything back! All my apps, all my email accounts and messages, all my sync software and folders. TB even brought back my book reader to the exact page of the book I was reading!
So, everybody can LOL at me...I can take it. I promise to be more careful in the future when I freeze stuff!
Thanks TB!
I want to use the stock rooted version located in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1984436&page=18
I have a couple questions:
I want to use the "wipe" version, to try and get rid of some battery issues. I do not want to wipe the sd card. I use it strictly for storage of music & pic.....no apps. Can I remove the sd card and do the stock rooted, and then just put the sd card back in?
Secondly, will stock rooted allow me the ability to get rid of bloatware? Media hub, allshare, etc? My device is discharging at about 5% per hour which I find high. I've disabled a host of things to try and get this down, plus I'd just like to have more control on what's on my phone.
Brand new to rooting android ( used to root my blackberry and Motorazor back in the day) and I didn't see any specific answers to these questions.
Thanks in advance!
Yes to both questions. You may want to find a list of bloatware apps that are safe to remove/freeze before deleting apps.

Once you root, use Titanium Backup to uninstall bloatware, but only those on the safe list.

I highly recommended that you use Titanium to freeze the unwanted apps, but NOT uninstall them. You may need them back later for new software update. Freezing is very safe as you always can unfreeze them. Once you froze the app, it only take up a tiny little space on your storage but the benefit goes a long way.
