Some cool apps for root

So here are a few cool apps I have found lately for root.
Adfree- disables all ads
Appbrain- not for root but recommends neat apps.
Elite bomb ultimate-text bomb app. With root can send tons at a time.
Music downloader pro-not for root. Just downloads music.
Shootme-for root. Takes screen shots.
Where's my droid- turns up phone volume and rings so you can find your lost phone.. Activated by keyword in a text from another device.
Cache mate-for root. Clears cache of most apps all at once.
If I find any other ones I'll let you bros know.

Where's my droid -wow cool! thx man, keep it comin'
Also
adbWireless - wifi ADB
Bump - exchange contacts/photos/apps with other phones (iphones, androids) no root
Dropbox - file hosting and sync-ing PC-Phone no root
PS: it needs to be posted in Themes and Apps though

Where's my droid has to be the best thing in the world... only down side is if someone knows my catch phrase they can get you some stares in class =D

Root explorer is a must! Deletes bloatware and let's you get into your phones system!

Why? No ones contributing any apps or themes, we just discussing them. That's why all these threads are getting moved around. It belongs here.

Those are some good apps!
Sent from my HTC Glacier

here are some of my suggestions:
metamorph - flashes themes like swype
vlingo - far better than genius button and the ui is flawless
apps2 sd - moves your apps from internal memory to your sd
boot animation changer - changes your boot screen on startup and its simple
barnacle wifi legacy - wifi tether your 4G network to any wifi enabled device
adb wireless - helpful when using adb push without having to use cables
setcpu - needed for adjusting overclock functions
poweramp - utilizes an EQ which makes the HTC speakers sound far better
quick boot - quickly boot into reboot, recovery or hboot with one click
titanium backup - if you flash roms often then you know what this is lol
these are just a few of mine

Found another good one..
No lock by bod
Disables lock so you can push track pad and presto.

A lot of people mention root explorer as a great app. Is there a free alternative that can accomplish the same thing? I was interested in remapping my genius button using the tutorial found on these boards, but I don't really know if I want it badly enough to pay 4 bucks to do it and never use the app again.

You can unfreeze it later if you prefer. Just uninstall it. Good riddance
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App

Completely removing the files/apks can prevent you from getting future OTA updates, where freezing them with Titanium Backup is like removing them, but if you thaw them out, they return and you can still get OTA updates.

Okay, gotcha. If I've installed Firefox, is it safe to freeze Browser?

Freezing backup assistant causes force closes for me since it keeps restarting itself. Everything else worked great tho, thanks.

Frozen but still showing up
So I froze a bunch of apps in tit back but it seems like a lot of the links to them are still visible... for instance i froze daily briefing but when i long press on a home screen to add a widget i can still see all four of the daily briefing apps. Same goes for icons when i long press to add applications to my home screen. Is this just a failure by tit back to clean up these items from everywhere?

The same thing happened to me, but a reboot fixed it.

Just picked up the Charge (for my daughter) and I've not used Titanium Backup at all, but presume its easy to figure out freezing apps. My question is why freeze vs delete? I've pretty much always used CM 6 or 7 so this is something I haven't had to deal with before.
Me: OG D1 CM7.0.3 w/ChevyNo1 ulv @ 1.1ghz
Wife: OG D1 CM 7.0.3 stock kernel

Not Flaming but this question was answered on the previous page. There is only two pages, you should read them.

When I freeze car cradle my dock no longer works. On my droid when I added a new car home app it gave me the option to make that default when docked, but I don't get a message for the Charge. Anyone know a way around this? I really want to use my car dock but car cradle is complete crap.

Sorry if I seem dense to you, but I don't really know what 'freezing' is. That's my question I suppose. Why one (freezing) vs the other (deleting)? Freezing leaves them on the phone but keeps them from being visible/loading? I certainly read the prior page, but someone saying 'I froze these files' and someone else saying, 'just delete them' doesn't really help me out much, hence my question. Just trying to understand something new. Is there a good reason to freeze something rather than just delete?
Edit: Nevermind. Still kinda wondering just what freezing does, but tibu is pretty self-explanatory in its operation.

Yeah, I was just re-reading the first page again (for the third time) and saw that. I do not understand how I missed it. My fault. Thanks.

You can also just rename the file extension that you want to remove/delete. What I do is just rename the file from .apk to .bak. Then I move them all to a folder named system apps on my sd card. That way if I need them in the future I can just move them back to the system folder on the device and just rename it back to .apk. I don't like depending on a program to do it for me, because there have been instances where Titanium has screwed me when restoring a file. Just my opinion and to each their own but it is another alternative. I use Root Explorer to do this. You don't have to move the file either, you can just rename the .apk extension to .bak and just restart your phone and the app will not load.
Regardless be sure to restart your phone so that the apps do not load after making changes.

did i freeze something important?
after i froze everything on the list (on page 1), i rebooted my phone. Now it's stuck on the boot-up animation screen.
Edit: I froze TWLauncher 2.2.1 without using an alternate launcher. Am I screwed?

If you want to get out of the boot screen, I would suggest you start all over. Either reflash the through ODIN, or go into the Samsung factory recovery and wipe user data and wipe cache. For instruction on how to go into recovery on Droid Charge, there's a instruction in Droid Charge Forum in Android Central under the sticky in Charge Rooting, Room and Hacks by DroidXcon.

Phone after-use questions

Well i got some questions after having King Rom 1.4 installed, based ont he latest version with instead of the LG launching, having go launcher installed.
1- How can i get rid of the transition effect between switching options ect? I am tired of it?
2- Why cant the stock weather widget app not auto-update? it always says updating failed unless i manually let it update? I have juice defender wich only allowes data in standby on the 15 minutes, but other apps update fine in that window.
3.is there a nice looking weather widget with clock wich actually makes you go to the alarm/clock section if you click the clock and makes you go to the weather when you click the clouds, sun ect?
4.i tried a few flashlight apps, but none seem to work...is there one?
5. I cant use the LED flash when making 3d photo's?
6. Any power wanting games that utilise everything this phone's got?
7. Why's everyone waiting for cynogenmod? it doesnt look something that can offer us more? only a bit more themable? why would you want it over the stock rom or roms already available?
8. How can i lock an application so it wont get closed automaticly, and if it does, it gets restarted?
Thanks!

1. Download the app spare parts. You'll see settings for transition animations, you can turn it off there.
2. Not sure, but it auto updates fine for me. But my data is always on.
3. Never checked
4. Don't use
5. Nope, possible reason is... bug. another reason is that taking 3D pics would require a lot of light and the flash at night might ruin the 3D effect =/
6. Not a clue about games, but I've got 172 apps in the app drawer and its still fast =/ so most likely no games yet
7. They want it because most roms for other phones are based off of cynogenmod. If its released, they'll be more developers who can develop roms... and they like the support that CM would bring. Updates much more often than official stock rom.
8. Can't. Not that I know of. Its better if it doesn't. The apps are closed for a reason.

3. Beutiful widgets
4. Tiny Flashlight (must wait 3-5 seconds)
8. ES Task Manager

[ROM][PORT]Lezo OS & Mr.Ding-P999

Lezo OS
Hello everyone.
This is a port of the P990 Lezo OS a CM based rom. I am not a developer, just someone who was lucky enough to have this work It's just another piece of a so called "Crack Flashing Series". There are plenty of roms provided to our community, and this also brings people with different likes and dislikes. I aim only to share some of the other roms out there with the community. Maybe you want to try something out inbetween updates from your favorite rom, well, try this.
None of this would out be possible without the help of guides from dubntz and blindndumb. If you like any of the ports thank them as well.
I try to test each rom to ensure stability and luckily they've been great.

Cant wait to try this one out. Our phone needs more stable roms where everything is working. ICS is nice but till we get our drivers, it's a backburner rom for me. I say lets get more and more roms besides ICS.

Help please. I lost my display by freezing an app.

Android noobie and first time poster. I have an LG P990 unlocked phone with 2.3.4 stock rom. I have rooted it and have become somewhat familiar with the android system. However, I have just messed up big time. I was using "Root Uninstaller Pro" to freeze unwanted apps and being very careful, but whatever it was that I froze last, made my display disappear completely. My screen is black!!! The only display that I get is boot animation, unlock screen and status bar pull down. I would love to undo that last step, but am helpless without access to the Icons. Is there anything I can try? I stupidly have NOT made a backup with CWM. Please help.

Go to Google play on your computer, search for any launcher (go launcher, launcher pro, holo launcher, adw launcher, etc.).
Install from your computer, and select the phone you want it to install on. Watch as it downloads and installs on your phone. When the status bar status says its been installed, tap the home button.
