Moving to Q&A

Hello
It's better that you uninstal app with Root Uninstaller !
Search it on the market, I can set a link here, I am to new :/

Here you go.
This app won't allow you to delete important system apps like Android System/Calendar/Clock/Contacts and so on (marked with red), so you're safe with this app.

POST SPAM!

thanks all
thanks mod for moving to the right thread sorry about that
i actually got everything working and managed to remove useless apps via titanium backup i was just going about things the wrong way still learning how things work with the operating system but im having a blast at this point trying different ui through rom manager awesome program
im actually gonna scan the forum for some more options now!!

[Q] Samdung Galaxy S (and my options)

Hello, I am in need of a little help. I am a complete noob to android and have no idea really how the system works. I have a Samsung Galaxy S and have decided to root my phone for 2 reasons.. ap2sd and so I can install the lag fix. I have done a bit of reading and chosen the path I wish to take but would like some assurance and pointers. I am also unsure of: If I root my phone does this automatically mean that with a properly partitioned sd card that I can store apps 2 sd or do I still need to flash the handset with a new ROM and if so there I am stuck... I do not know where to begin with searching for the best ROM for me. Also I would like to know if after i've done this will the handset still be able to receive the official updates or will I just need to keep updating it myself!
Here is the rundown as far as i have got so far...
Samsung Galaxy S I9000/XXJF3 Updated!
All the programs for XP i need are downloaded (eg.net3.5/4, samsung drivers)
The root method I thought was best for me was that of TGA_Gunman
The lag fix I had chosen is by Chainfire
I have still to back up the original ROM with ClockWorkMod (Is this easy to do and if I need to use it will it bring me completely back to my original settings for warranty purposes, or is there other things I would need to do?)
Also could someone provide me with a link to the best noob proof SD partitioning method!!
Is there anything I'm missing here, or anything that could be done a better way!! Any and all pointers will be much appreciated....
P.s. I would be wanting to update to the official froyo update when it's available will this cause me problems and if so what must I do!
Thanks in advance

I don't know much about the galaxy s, but you might be better off asking this in the Galaxy S forum.

[Q] hi guys noob here!

I just got my g tablet.
I want to root the device and later install a rom I was thinking on robeet`s tntlite
My question is, do I have to install first the 4.2.0. and later the 4.2.5 supplement?
Do I have to root it to attempt rom trials or can be done without rooting? anyway i was thinking to use z4 root.
any advice?
Thanx in advance Im absolutely new to android but Im an ios developer.
Would post a link if I had my tab with me but if you look in the development section there is a thread telling you exact steps to do what you want to. It has all the links for downloads you will need.
Oh this method involves mounting and unmounting partitions instead of using a rooting tool. Its worth doing this way. I felt it taught me more about my device. Good luck and have fun!

Thank you for replying, I was following this article:
How to unleash the power of your g tablet from android police( I cant post links yet)
I will search for the thread you are mentioning but if you can later please post it here I would really appreciate your help.
I recommend this thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
HOWEVER... read about the available ROMS first. Check out the features and the caveats. See if Flash is already installed so you can skip a step in that instruction guide. Etc... Etc...
Most importantly... have fun and let us know how it goes ;-)
Edit: FYI... The current crop of custom ROM's come pre-rooted for your convenience. It's no longer a requirement to root the device first.
Thanx a lot bro, you helped me a lot with your reply, I will attempt all this at home since my office is 100% mac.
btw is this g tablet mac compatible? lol sorry for the noob questions
Quetions are good. They allow us to help and learn from each other.
Mac Compatible... Oh, yes. I'm typing this from my MacBook Pro which has a VirtualBox session running linux when necessary for nvflashing ;-) Your gTablet's internal memory can be mounted on your Mac desktop via USB or it can be shared via FTP or AFP using a few free apps from the market. Best of all worlds in my opinion.
Yep that's the thread I was thinking about. Glad someone found you the link.
Exactly what was said before, don't forget to have fun and let us know how it went for you and what rom you decided on.

As already referenced, this was the thread that I used, for my first upgrade.
I would recommend loading CWM as well, to redo your partitions to 2,0
Out of curiousity:
Did your new tablet boot up to a welcome screen with setup questions & an end user agreement or did it present you with a home screen ?
Thanx guys, Yap at the end I decided to went with tntlite 4.2.5
LGcubana
My gtab presented me with a home screen and since the beginning crash after crash! so dissapointing... inmediately picked up a new update and everything went smoothly after that, flash running, angry birds from factory presets and so on but I still wanted to moded the tab so that´s what I did.
Btw any of you guys know of a barscan app for the gtab so i can download apps faster from sites like appaware? I don´t know why but the android marketplace is not letting me install that app. Compatibility perhaps?

Anybody working on temporary Root access or HULU playback?

Hello all,
I am not advanced enough in hacking to do this myself, but really miss root access. Even if we only have temporary access, at least we could run Titanium backup. Is anybody working on this? I'm sure being a new version of Android, some new exploits to gain root exist...
Also anybody have a way to get HULU working? I have tryed installing the Hex edited Flash player 10.3 installation but it will not install...
Anybody here tryed that gingerbreak.apk? I read that it no longer works...

[Q] Help with samsung continuum

Hey all I am a noob to modding droids. I have a continuum which I thought was never going to be updated, so i removed all bloatware. Seems though the phone finally got an update but OTA updates fail (obviously for removing bloat). So i'm wondering is there a way to restore the original stock rom with all the bloatware, or can i just install the new update through the droids safemode menu. Phone is rooted and nothing else. ANy help would be appreciated
There is a forum for the Continuum here at XDA. Here's the information you are seeking, located in the Android Development section
Good luck!

[Q] Apps Safe to Freeze?

Hello all, I would have liked to search for an answer or post in the correct section, however being that I'm a newby here and this is my first post, I can't do either. Or maybe its just that the search is currently down, either way...
Just bought this device (GT-P3113) and I've already rooted successfully. My question now however is does anybody have a link to a list of apps that are safe to freeze via Titanium Backup? I've looked all over and used the best google-fu I had, no luck finding any such list for this specific device. Thanks for your help! Next up is choosing a quality ROM!
I was just reading this yesterday maybe it will help.?.?

Check out my debloat tool.
I would just do a backup and go through each app that you don't want and freeze it.
When going through I was able to delete/freeze almost every single Samsung Touchwiz apk on the device without any issues what so ever.
