Hi there!
Like a lot of you guys, I'm using MIUI on my Nexus S. Since I've seen so many people in the relevant forums trying to remove the Virus Scan icon form the homescreen, I decided to make a short tutorial on how to do it and how to remove other app icons.
Warning: If you want to use the apps listed below, DO NOT follow the tutorial, since the apps won't work anymore.
Warning #2: Do everything on your own risk. I'm not responsible for any data losses, damages, or bricked devices.
First of all, you're going to need ROM Toolbox Pro or Titanium Backup (or anything similar) then follow the instructions below:
Removing the VirusScan icon:
1. Open ROM Toolbox Pro and run the App Manager, then click on All apps at the top of the screen.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Long press on Settings and select Advanced freeze.
3. Go to the bottom of the list appeared then untick the followings:
Settings (.VirusScanActivity)
Settings (.VirusScanAppActivity)
Settings (.VirusScanService)
Removing the app startup icon:
The first step is the same as above.
2. Long press on Permission Manager and select Advanced Freeze.
3. Look for the following and untick it:
com.lbe.security.ui.AutoStartAppList
Restart your phone after finishing.
If you want to use the freezed apps again, just tick them and restart your phone.
With this method you will be able to remove the unused icons of Google Maps as well (of course those function won't work and Google Maps will FC if trying to use them - all the other functions will work though).

Record your Tegra2 screen from a PC.
Proof: Watch
Warning:
1: I've only tried this on CM10.1. I'm not sure about other ROM's or stock ROM's. You test and tell me. I'll include it under "tested configs".
2: This includes installing an app on your PC and its client app on your device.
3. This is not perfect. The recording is laggy, but you can record. Isn't that enough?
4. You'll need a pc with screen recorder like camtasia recorder.
How-To:
1. First go grab this software. MyPhoneExplorer.. This is a must have. Apart from screen recording it offers multiple other tools.
2. Install it on your PC.
3. On your phone enable "USB debugging" and connect the phone to the PC.
4. Open up the app on your PC.

}
5. Then goto extras on the menu bar and select "Control Phone/Load Screen shot"
6. That's it your beautiful tegra2 device will load up on the screen. You can do whatever you like on the phone like navigating the homescreens, playing a game, listening to music etc. All that gets replicated on the PC screen.
7. The last step is using a good PC screen recorder to record the screen area currently occupied by the "Control Phone" window of the MyPhoneExlorer app.
8. Enjoy! and you can also post some of your screen recordings here. I'm adding the first one below for you to see.

Are you trying to remove preinstalled apps from your device?? Here are some tips to do the same
So before starting, what is a blotware??
In another words, pre-installed apps that are useless most of the time. There are also other downfall of bloatware. It consumes system resources, taking up storage space and RAM, running in the background without you knowing and draining up your battery.
How to remove bloatware on Android devices?.
Unfortunately, your carriers and manufacturers do not make it any easier. Normally, bloatware is hidden in system folder, which you have no permission to access.
SO how to remove them?? Lets get started
Inorder to remove the blotwares you need to download an app from the playstore. Once downloaded it,install the app.
Download the app from here
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp
First decide the app you want to remove
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As you can see it cant be uninstalled..
Second open your System app remover
Third, find the app and tick the checkbox corresponding to it
Now Choose the option yes when a message is displayed like this
Wait for a few second . And after a few second a message will be displayed like this.Click OK:good::good:
Follow the same steps if you have to remove multiple items..
After removing the apps restart your device.
You will be able to find the app removed from your device
PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE SYSTEM APPS., OR ANY OTHER APP REQUIRED FOR THE PROPER WORKING OF THE DEVICE
You can also try Titanium Backup for this purpose. But in my opinion System app remover is more user friendly

Love it or hate it, YouTube has a new UI that's rolling out
It's not a server switch as most people think - the switch is local. If you don't like the UI, usually uninstalling and reinstalling will revert it, not always though.
Anyway, if you want it to be enabled by force, here's how to do that:
Option 1: Using a GUI preferences editor such as Preferences Manager
1.) Download and open Preferences Manager
2.) Select YouTube from the list. You may need to enable "Show system apps" from the overflow menu first
3.) Select "com.google.android.libraries.innertube.pref.inner_tube_config" from the list
4.) Enter the following value, replacing the current one:

Thanks to @- Swift - for donating his shared prefs for testing
For everyone having problems with notification specifically whatsapp and facebook make sure that (GCM service) not disabled and that service known as (google cloud messages ) this service is the one responsible for pushing notifications for apps like whatsapp,facebook,gmail ect..
IMPORTANT..... ((DONT restor apps from Titanium Backup this will solve the problem)) if it doesnt work try following these steps:
1- make sure the app u want to get notifications from is not disabled from autorun in smart manager
2- download this app from playstore DisableService: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.disableservice
to make sure the (GCM service) is working

}
3- open ur buildprop and find this line
sys.config.spcm_gcm_kill_enable=true
change it from true to false save and reboot
4- if the problem still exist change all the 4 lines from true to false save and reboot
5-if the 4 steps doesnt work repeat all steps and uninstall whats app and install it as a system app extract this folder and put it in system/app set the correct permissions and reboot

After that open settings/accounts and remove google account then go to application manager/all, and delete the data and updates for those 3 and reboot,open playstore add ur account ect..
Hope this works.
