If you want to remove it delete manually from /system/app with a root file explorer.

on a more serious note. here are some good apps people
goo-manager
foxfi (no root tether, not just ad-hoc either )
titanium backup
setcpu
i highly recommend "requesting" chainfire update soem things to add support for the blaze to mobile odin. its one of teh best apps ive ever used
Also ES File Explorer. Best file manager on the Market, and handles root duties. Has a useful app manager built in.
yea right, best free oen maybe.. root explorer is 100 times better

Why pay for what ES does for free? ES legitimately has more features.

question about foxfi, do you use bluetooth or wifi.
i would like to be able to use wifi (ad-hoc is fine) because my tab doesnt always recognize bluetooth connection. i tried wireless tether for root users but it gave me serious problems (i wouldnt recommend it unless you know a proper setup for it other than the default)

Root with custom recovery and have yet to install busybox.
From my understanding busybox helps root related apps run? But I have like 10 root apps and all have performed perfectly so far. So is Busybox still needed?
Busybox is not needed to run root apps that's why all your apps are working

If you read the busy box app description it's clear that it's required for proper functioning of many apps, especially apps that use kernel functions.
I know that FauxClock/FauxSound won't work properly without it.
I think terminal emulator also....
Maybe you are just lucky that your root apps don't need it? Given its a very unobtrusive app I would just install it.
Ok thanks guys just got a flashable zip so going to go throw it on.

If a root app requires busybox, I typically uninstall the root app and find something else to do the job.
Requiring busybox is sloppy IMO.

The app should include all utilities necessary to sustain itself. Titanium Backup is a great example of how this should be done.
Couldn't disagree more, but lets leave it at that

only messed with apks once, but I noticed not all the files in the apk I was messing with were compressed to the same level..
I had to add one separately with 0 compression to make the apk the similar size as the original. for some reason I was being anal about it at the time... just a thought

I always compare's the compression level with the original apk...
Almost all time the size of modified apk and original apk matches (maybe with a difference less than 1 mb)

That's up to you. Just bear in mind that as its experimental, not everything works so don't waste too much time trying to get something working that may simply be down to a problem with ART

ok, art depends on precompiling code emlements, which means, eg. if you edit the layout files, it can be possible that the precompiled data leads to the force closes - especially dynamically created views, can be a killing options :/

Where is this Precompiled data located in ?
I tried wiping data,cache,dalvik-cache Still the problem exist..
Does this issue somehow related with classes.dex ?

There's no reason to switch, since now you can get the same speed with this. I flashed the mods on my N5 and N7 and have noticed a considerable increase in speed on both devices.

dalvik and art are two independent runtimes, both implemented in android since 4.4.0. the dalvik machine uses .dex files, in a small kind of "precompiled". wiping the dalvik cache only deletes dalvik related files, like the .dex files.
for art, sorry i dont know where they are located or how they are made :/
maybe try to install the modified app in dalvik, and then switch to art, so the data of the app i new compiled.
can you post a logcat?
take a look here, it seems similar problem...
maybe invalid package error?
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=61916
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2027663
you can switch to dalvik, delete the apps data in /data/data ..., install the modded apk and switch to art again
I did search but I couldn't find anything, sorry if it causes any offence.
I am having trouble updating to 4.4.2 for some reason. The bootloader is unnlocked and the device is rooted withTWRP recovery installed.
How would I go about updating whilst preserving all data etc?
Many thanks
You can flash an ota update, or fastboot flash the factory boot and system images.
If you factory flash, you will probably have to format /data to avoid issues.

Might be worth telling the dev of the app rather than asking here...
Presume you cleared data on the app? Made any changes since it last worked?

Thanks for your response. Yes, I cleared the Speedtest app's data, uninstalled/re-installed, and cleared cache and Dalvik in recovery.
EDIT: The only thing I remember doing since it last worked is to test an app called Android Tuner. I ended up uninstalling it.
BTW, I also fixed permissions.
Have you frozen anything? Or changed any location things?
Mine still works so its not an update

I just defrosted everything and tried to run the app, but, apparently, that's not the problem.
I don't think I changed the location of any files, if that is, in fact, what you mean. If you mean location, as in geographic, no, I don't think that I have changed anything either in that regard.
BTW, Did I create and post the logcat correctly? I had never done it before. Thanks
