Hi,
this might be a stupid question, but ...
ive successfully rooted my phone and now i want to remove those annoying stock apps. Can anyone tell me how to do this ?
Thank you!
Use apps like System App remover or titanium backup, etc which are available at play store. But make sure not to remove some important apps which may be important for the os. Remove only those you know very well and what it does and you're sure that removing it won't be a problem.
To be honest, they take up very little space and uninstalling some of them can lead to problems. Your best bet is to long press them in your app drawer, drag them to App Info and then disable them (or freeze them in Titanium Backup, same thing). Then they're hidden but you can re-enable them if there are any issues.
yeah worked - thank you!
i only removed the obvious once like drive, g+ etc

Just so you know, you won't be able to install the OTA when it comes with any system app removed. You'll have to replace those apps.

If you're rooted and the linked thread up there doesn't work...just download Titanium Backup. Use it to uninstall MP3 store.

You're an idiot. Read the threads and learn how to use ADB/Root Explorer.

Does anyone know how to remove the Inception movie completely? After uninstalled from Titanium Backup, I open doubleTwist and the movie is still there. Wonder anyone know where the real file is located.
You only uninstalled the launcher. You have to delete it from your SD card. It should be in /sdcard/movie

No I dumped it. I already have it on BD.
I have had this problem since the first time I used ODIN to go completely stock. I cannot use the stock messaging app. It will open but will not send or receive... I have tried multiple other roms and still no luck. It isn't a big deal since I use google voice anyway but it is still a pain... and it is bugging me. Anyone have any suggestions? I have looked at the message center numbers... +1 something... Tried both of those and that still doesn't help.
do u use TiBu to restore apps+data after each flash? if yes can u try messaging before u do that and after a fresh install of any ROM
No... I use titanium backup
Lol tibu=titanium backup

I was under the impression that you could simply "opt-out" or turn off Carrier IQ on the T-Mobile G2.

If you're on clean rom, I'd just freeze the system manager app altogether. Or You may no longer have the app loaded since you installed Clean Rom which could be why it keeps crashing altogether

I know, lol look at my first post.
Best thing is to uninstall the System Manager Applications, there are three of them. Who know by unchecking collect diagnostics it truly does anything.
Could someone upload the Motorola Contextual Services apk for me? I believe it's ContextEngineClient.apk in "system/priv-app". I just need the stock app again so I can let it update from the Play Store. Someone give me a hand and I'll slap the Thanks button ☺

Cheers! Never remove system apps, just freeze them.

Yeah I know. I never actually delete them. I just ran into a hiccup with integrating updates into the ROM to free up some space. Thanks!
EDIT: When i click the link, it says I need permission to access it...
I still need Contextual Services app (ContextEngineClient.apk) if someone could upload it for me. The file in post #2 said I didn't have access to download it.
