[Q] Uninstalling stock applications - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi... Is there any problem if i uninstall stock applications like Maps, Gmail, Talk, etc....???? i never use those applications....
why talking tom cat doesnt work...??? it force closes.......

Yes. You cant uninstall by the way, you need to go to /system/app using root explorer and delete the corresponding apks. Eg. maps.apk. you need to be rooted too

You can uninstall the apps using titanium backup, it's the easyest way. You must be rooted..There is no risk unistall the apps you mention

Yes, backup is recomended
But remember, someone said we should not remove Talk, as Maps won't work. I cannot remember if it was about a specific ROM or every one...

no needless apps:

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).

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.

[Q] Weird problem with market link after restoring with my backup pro!

Guys see when I did a restore with my backup pro, all my apps got linked to the market! The apk ones also and when I broke the link they all come under not installed! And my whole app list in the market was erased! How can I get back my list of only market installed apps? Plus even when I factory reset it and install all apps manually, it does not come properly! And even if I install an app from the market the whole thing comes back like that! Please Please Help Me!
likely has to do with market cache, among other things. the good news is, selecting to install them again won't wipe the data
So what should I do to get only market installed app list back! Its very confusing! It linked all my apps to the market on its on!
were you restoring a previous backup from cwm using backup pro? I don't have the app and don't know how it works. if you were, then why not restore using cwm and using titanium to backup your market? this should help save the market data to reuse after using that backup pro app...
Its this simple
Download Titanum backup>open>menu>market doctor>market auto updates
This would attach the links of user app to the Market.
Guys no ur not getting the problem! All my 280 apps apk installed ones and also including market apps have been linked to the market! I want only my market(user) apps to be there! Should I try making a new account!
ok to remove the apps u needo follow the same steps but insteat in titanium backup>menu>market tool>destroy all market links.
then reattach them

I have only market auto updates and market doctor no market tools!
To remove all market link do this
Goto Titanium>"Menu button">Market tools> Select destroy all market links
To reattach
instead destroy all market links select market doctor.
See even when I break market links all apps including user and apk come under not installed! I guess I have to make a new account!

After destorying, try using market doctor the attach the links back. You can try force attaching an app to the market too, go to backup/restore and long press the app and select force attach to the market. It should work

How about this:
Delete all Market links
Remove the google account from the phone
Delete all app data of the market apk
Restart the phone
Open market app
Enter account
See if the my apps list is clean
If it is, restore only the links you want to have to.

I fianlly understand your problem. Here's what you can try. Backup the app using titanium backup, uninstall the app and install it again manually(without data). Then restore the data and check if its under the list. Btw, can you see all your apps? If you can't, try reinstalling.
Cheers

Try this (I really don't know if it works)
1) Settings=>Privacy Settings=>Back up my data and uncheck everything
2) Settings=>Applications=>Manage applications=>Market=>Clear data
If in 1) checkboxs are already unchecked... well, it won't work
edit:
If the apps appear as installed, try to break again the links with Titatiun Backup

No dude did not work! Guess its a problem with the account!
Did you try as I said? I had a similar issue time ago and I couldn't solve it, so I want to know if doing as I explained will solve the problem.
Quoting from here:
If you check this option, a wide variety of your personal data is backed up, including your Wi-Fi passwords, Browser bookmarks, a list of the applications you’ve installed from Market, the words you’ve...

What I think is: you restored the apps, then the market recognized them as market apps and added them to the "installed applications" list. Finally Android backed up that list. So now, when you break the links with Titanium Backup, Android Market shows them as "not installed" because they are in that list and considers them as not installed.
Its ok guys! I made a new account!

[Q] Titanium Backup Restore

I upgraded my MIUI rom to 2.2.17 and wanted to restore my apps using tb donate version. When I go to batch restore, a force close box pops up every time. I've already done a fresh wipe, fixed permissions, and installed busybox from the problems tab on tb, but none of them worked. Any solutions?
1. Is it a clean install of ROM?
2. Are you restoring only missing apps and data?

Is the root on for your MIUI...believe in the settings you have to turn it on, that would keep TB from working correctly.
I purchased the key via the market...best $$ spent, When ever I put a fresh ROM on, I install TB & key, and then reinstall my "apps only" not apps with data.
Titanium Backup
I plunked down the $$$ for the paid version. Never had any problems with the app.
I do know that when coming from a Froyo based Rom (or stock) to a GB based ROM you aren't supposed to restore apps and data. Just apps.
The one issue I've had with TB is that even though I restore all my apps, and they work fine, the apps are now disconnected from the Android market. Meaning the market no longer thinks I have them installed on my phone. Won't receive any updates when that is the case. I even tried the Market tools within the app. Those didn't resolve the issue.
I went from Stock Froyo to Infused 2.2.3 to Zeus v5. In both cases, I had to manually re-install my apps on the market. Not a huge deal, but an inconvenience.

There is an option is TiBu that allows you to attach the app to market. Try using it. It should solve your issue. It works for me for certain apps like dropbox and google voice that I don't want to upgrade. Turned it back on for google voice recently and it worked.
I could have swore that the op for miui said to never restore apps with tibu..could be wrong idk

Now that i think about it in qbking77 video tutorial he kinda made it out like you should should use other means of restoring...tibu last option and your right apps without data

One thing you can try - uninstall tibu (both paid & free) then reinstall in order - free, then key. I've had issues where app "keys" seem to get installed first and the app won't wort properly.

[Q] cannot operate

hey guys .. got my nexus 5 today and installed a sweet rom .. installed TB and deleted all the crap that comes with the GAPPS packages IE Google music ETC and when i did this the phone became un-reponsive and wouldnt load the home screen .. then when i ree-booted it got stuck on the bootloop ..
have google taken these powers away from us now so we have to keep google music ETC
if there is a way around this i would be much appreciated
Thanks
Steve
Hi,
It seems you have deleted an (some) essential system app(s) ?
Could you provide a list of what you have deleted? Maybe you have deleted something not related to the Gapps (since the phone boot or work "normally" without Gapps)?
No Nandroid backup or Titanium backup I presume?
Some system apps are safe to delete, others not... Dirty flash your rom should do the trick (wipe only Dalvik cache and cache partition), you won't lose anything and the apps you deleted will be installed again...

Did you delete Google Now, or Play Services? That will cripple the device with stock launcher.
Why would you delete then apps rather than just freezing them?
If you just freeze them, you wouldn't have to do it every time you update your rom, unlike deleting.

Are you sure it's only that? I've deleted them without issue, there is something else..., did you read my post?
You freeze them in settings/apps/all or with Titanium backup (or similar apps)... And always make a Nandroid backup or a backup with Titanium (recovery backup, I mean create "update.zip" ).
