You want to disable the incognito more from the stock browser? Not possible as it's a part of the application. Best bet would be to uninstall the stock app and install one that doesn't have incognito mode - although I'm not sure of any that don't.

If you don't know how to delete a system app then you really need to learn how to search, first rule of XDA.

How do you create apk of built-in apps? I have AppInstaller which allows me to make backup .apk of apps that I install, but it does not show any of the built-in apps. I would definitely like to have .apk's of all built-in apps before flashing a custom ROM (when they become available), because I use QuickOffice a lot and it is included free - don't want to have to pay for it to add it back in to any other ROM.

I recently flashed cyanogenmod 10 (android 4.1.1) on my gtab 2 7.0, it's flawless but I have some questions..
-Is there a way I can edit the arragement of the icons in my apps drawer?
-Does it have a task manager (built in)? I searched for it everywhere.
-Does it have a "my files" app, like the one in the stock ROM, to explore the storage and so?
Thanks. (sorry if in wrong section, no one answered me in the CM10 post)
(I do know this is an experimental version, but I tried CM9 and found the same things, so I'm just asking)

does anyone know of ANY apps or mods that enable multiple user login on the Note 10.1 similar to the nexus 10 where you have your own profiles on the lock screen for multiple users?
so far, I have only found ONE app that does this but havent tried it yet: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEwMiwiZmFocmJvdC5hcHBzLnN3aXRjaG1lLmtleSJd
any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated!
Multi user login in Android 4.2 is embedded into the system at a very low level. Such a thing is very hard, almost impossible to port, especially without the source code of the ROM you want to port it to.

Yes in the app itself it can unroot, and you can download also your stock rom for your country from samfirmware as a backup

I've tested both ways now and in principle both go, but there are advantages and disadvantages of each. I would like to tell about the most important:
1. SwitchMe App:
i rooted the device with the above method.
then installed the switchme app and granted superuser access.
advantage:
Every user has a completely separate account on the tablet.
disadvantage:
with every switch between the users the tablet has to reboot.
2. terminal app:
also rooting with the above method.
create a new user with pm create-user Katja (my wife)...
advantage:
switching between the users is possible in the on / off menu and dont require a reboot
disadvantage:
same apps and save games in the apps
notification does not reset after switching the user. (this is very annoying)
After all i decided to not switching right now. and if i will do, i will use the SwitchME app.
maybe there will be a update to version 4.2 in near future. This will be genius with this fabulous tablet.
I hope i can help some of the users here.

thanks! ur right the app works fine but the reboot thing is annoying. I can't seem to figure out how to put the profiles on the lock screen so I can switch accounts without going into the app...anyone know how?
I installed a custom Rom on my att s6 but it has the stock browser removed and I want to reinstall it. Can anyone give me some instructions on how to do it?
Best to just install 3rd party browsers lile Opera, Firefox, etc... from the Playstore.

depending on the custom rom you have installed there could be a addon package for all additional Google and Samsung apps. What also works: grab the stock browser app (anywherre on the internet or from any addon package for other stripped down custom roms (like XtreStoLite) and place th apk in /system/app.

Because you do not install it. You just move it there, set permissions and reboot.

Delete the apks in the system/app & system/priv-app folders and replace with aosp apps. Set permissions of courses. That's where I would start. An Aosp app installer should do that for you. Maybe compile a ROM from AOSP source?

I actually it's the opposite. Google makes AOSP and their phones will certainly run AOSP. Google create a custom pixel experience on the phone so I would ditch the stock ROM and build AOSP. Please correct me if I'm wrong I actually have never done it myself, but I have flashed many of ROM built from AOSP using the default AOSP system apps. But I found pure AOSP to be pretty bare-bones so I don't know overall if I would like that over what I'm getting from pixel ROM
Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
Extract an AOSP ROM and grab all the apk's from it and copy to the same locations in your phone.
Then use Titanium Backup to remove the previous system apps.
Do a backup first though of course because you're sure to run into at least a couple speed bumps.
does this require root?

You need root to access the system level apps and titanium backup is a root app as well.
You can remove the system apps via adb without root.

Deleting some system apps does not change to AOSP.
I think it would not be a good idea to delete all google apps !
If you want AOSP you need to build it by yourself.
Or wait until someone else does.
You have to be careful what you delete.
As a word of warning, uninstalling system applications can be very dangerous so please know what you’re getting rid of before you complete these steps. Failing to do so could result in your phone becoming unusable until you perform a factory reset. Of course, by removing any given system application, another system application that may depend on it may also break so be careful what you remove. But if something does go wrong, you can always perform a factory reset to bring things back to the way they were. Which is something else you should know – these uninstalled system applications can/will come back after a factory reset.

I think if you want a pure AOSP experience, the best path is to install an AOSP project treble GSI.

no you cant remove them, they just become 'invisible' to your user profile on the phone
they are still there however.
something like
pm uninstall --user 0 com.google.android.apkname
this doesnt uninstall the app, create another user on the phone and the same system app will be there.

Everything I removed via adb no longer has system folders, data folders and isn't showing up in Titanium Backup. Chrome, CellBroadcasts, Project Fi and a couple others I can remember is what I uninstalled via ADB and now that I'm rooted I've been able to look for remnants of the apps and I don't see anything.
