[Q] Carrier IQ Removal? - Samsung Infuse 4G

Hey folks,
Long time lurker, first time poster. I've been using the Infuse since July, and I am running "stockish" (Root+3e+UCKK1 Modem".
I was reading the Carrier IQ article on the home page, and also the thread here.
I don't like this. In the above thread, and from my reading K0nane and gtg465x have worked with this problem already.
So,
How do I remove the libiq_client.so file?
I have yet to flash a ROM from stock. Do any of the popular ROMs have this file and any aditional Carrier IQ "crap" already removed?
Thanks for any feedback guys.
Regards,
Cheesy Ravoli

Info overload.. but which ROM do I use?

Sorry.. truly sorry for asking such a dumb question. I have found and will use the NEWB flashing guide, but even there it doesn't suggest which ROM to use.
Jade? Maybe?
I have a ATT branded Tilt, latest crappy ATT 6.1 build and am ready for all of the improvements.
Since there are so many different ROMs of different flavors, it honestly is hard to tell which one to use in general.
Can someone make a good suggestion? I even saw off one of the linked site for the ROM images, one for the new touch HD?
Hoping for ease of use, speed, and better radio reception.
Thanks.. and again sorry for the newbie question

I've tried searching - is the official Froyo update out yet?

Sorry for what is likely a redundant thread, I don't own a Captivate. I tried searching but couldn't find anything beyond Samsung apparently putting the update out and then immediately pulling it last month. My friend has a Captivate and got a text sometime last week that an update (presumably Froyo) was available, and then when he tried to follow it he got an error. He's running the leaked Froyo so I'm not sure if that is impacting it - so can someone just let me know if the official update is available yet?
Really??????? If you would have searched this forum for 5 seconds, you would have seen it has been released. Seriously? What is with people asking dumb questions? Use the search!

Yes, it is.

Really???????? If you would have read my thread title and post for 5 seconds, you would have seen that I searched and saw conflicting info. Seriously? What is with people adding dumbass responses? Use your brain!
(Translation: And I'm reiterating here - I searched here and Google, it was vague on whether it was actually out yet or not. Like I said. I wanted to be 100% sure before I try to help my friend figure out why his update failed.)
Reinbeau - thanks.
It is out but they are slowly releasing it. My friend is running stock rom and he still haven't got the text yet.
Been out since late Jan/Early Feb for Rogers users. Not sure elsewhere.

You obviously didn't search very hard. I'm positive there are multiple threads here about it. What's with people being retarded?
Sent from my Captivate running Continuum 3.5 with SuckerPunch #58.
The update failed because he's on leaked Froyo. You can't update to Official Froyo from leaked Froyo. He should Odin to stock then update.
Its been out since Feb. 24th for U.S. ATT users. I can't figure out why, if he can install the leaked version he can't find the official on his own? He obviously searched to find the leaked version?
f#cking google
" at&t captivate froyo release date "
FIRST RESULT http://www.product-reviews.net/2011/02/24/samsung-captivate-att-froyo-update-release-date-reminder/
or hell just
"at&t captivate froyo "
how can you flash a phone and not be able to google some thing that easy~?
this hurts my head!
This thread is retarded. If you are this lame at getting info, you have no business flashing ROMs.
Hey did march madness start anf what teams r in it? Lol

[Q] Apps to Safely Remove

Hello,
I just got my Skyrocket yesterday and promptly rooted it. I uninstalled some of the more obvious AT&T applications but there were some I wasn't completely sure about; so I decided to wait, patience being a virtue and all.
So, has anyone (or will anyone) come up with a list of the apps we can safely remove from this device without it affecting the performance/capability of the phone?
Thanks in advance.

Good place to start on the subject.

it would be a good idea for one the OP's to just add your threads Info in the OP of this thread. instead redirecting them to one NOT in our forum.

[Q] Accessing Android Market after installing ARHD3.6.5

Hi guys
first time posting but have been lurking for a couple of years now since getting my Hero 2 years ago (always found the answers to any questions hence not had the need to post and be a pain ). Anyhow got a nice shiny new Sensation yesterday and have put the above mentioned ROM onto it without any issues.
However since updating to this nice ROM I've lost the ability to download apps from the market place through the web as opposed to on the phone (which works fine). I tend to find this way a hell of a lot easier than doing it through the phone.
Anyhow I've reinstalled the ROM after finding a post similar to this but to no avail. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on what I've missed or done wrong.
Many thanks for you help
ps I would have posted at the end on the ARHD3.6.5 thread in the developers section rather than start a new thread, but i don't have the necessary credentials to do that yet.

Hi,
Try going to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market>clear data.
thank you very much, seems to have done the trick

question about t959v

yes, i'll admit it, i'm not reading every single word of these damn forums because the navigation sucks and i just don't have time.
i have done my searching and come up with nothing that outright answered my question that i could find
now, ....that should cover all of you people that will "this has been answered a million times" like *******s.
i have a t959v galaxy s 4g. Tmo finally caught up that i tether while i'm at work.
my question is...do any of the custom roms for this phone have working tethering where tmo could see that i'm using data, but not know i'm tethering?
i've got no problem rooting my phone, i only havent done it because i didn't have a reason to. i know i'll need to root, but what rom supports it?
also, would it be the rom or the kernel that handles that?
thanks in advance to anyone that doesn't post an "i'm aggrivated cause you don't know" comment answer.
http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/misc/how-to-bypass-t-mobiles-anti-tethering-policy/
sweet. thank you. i wonder how long this'll last.
most of the time i'm tethering, i'm playing team fortress 2 on STEAM.
I really like that game too
well, you should have posted this in the Q&A forum instead of development, but other than that you have a valid question.
try "FoxFi" from the market, it should do what you need.
Never had a problem with barnacle on the play store. Tmo has never noticed as far as I can tell. Does require root.

Huh, I haven't had any bad luck yet with using a normal browser, but I should probably do it.
