Even after restarting, resetting to factory settings on the entire device, it still will not let me type with swype.
Here's the video to show it: dailyapper.com /?p=292 (remove the space before the / )
I have an issue that might be related. I rooted, used titanium backup to remove bloatware. Everythings fine but the option to change languages in swype is greyed out and no languages in my list when i hold 'q.'
Help? Reinstalled the apk from system dump too.

Just got my first Android phone yesterday (the Captivate) so I'm probably not much of an authority here as other people are but I'll try to help as much as I can.
You might have to uninstall and reinstall Swype on your phone...as far as instructions on how to do it as well as the .apk for it, you can find them somewhere here in the forums. If you need help trying to find it, I'll help as much as I can.
Maybe changing the UI from TouchWiz to something else as I did may help with lag in general. I switched to LauncherPro and it helped with "lag" when moving between home screens.
If all else fails, head back to the store and try to get it exchanged. Could be a glitch with your phone.
As I said, I'm no expert at all but just want to help as much as I can.
What have you installed on your phone? I installed Dolphin Browser HD and it caused all sorts of slow downs on my phone even when it wasn't running! Swype is perfectly fast for me. Do you still have the samsung touch wiz UI running?
Dolphin Browser HD slows mine down as well. As well as the TouchWiz UI.
I have it rooted but have not done anything to it. Have a handful of market Apps installed. I reset to factory settings already and still had the same issue. Going to do a complete system dump back to factory when I get home later today. But it was doing this before I rooted it.

any idea on what might have caused it? what apps have you install? I may be having same issue.
did a complete whipe and erased all data.
it's back to normal now.
Didn't get normal the first whipe, though, weird.
and after a days use and only installing about 5 apps - it's freezing the same way again. I am going to go return it.
Long story short: I messed up with flashing a custom rom. But gladly, I got my phone fixed. Now, I wanna root again but I'm scared of rom flashing. I just wanna do the basic benefits of rooting like deleting stock aps and other things.
So what other 'rooting benefits' can I obtain without rom flashing? Or without having the risk of bricking my phone? The rooting process is kinda simple for me since I can use the z4root app.
Help? Anyone?

You can obtain lot of goodies, like install applications not coming from the market, i guess, edit system files, remove non needed system applications, do a lot of things, be sure when you flash a rom to have a fully charged battery, its really hard to brick it.
mmmmm ????
depending what phone you have?? Rooting is safe enough, you can "unroot" just as easy! I definitely recommend z4root If you flash another ROM be sure to do lots of research next time!!! If you experience any problems, dont forget google can be your best friend! You can count on the fact you wont be the only one having the same problem
I have LG p500. Basically, I'm now scared of anything that involves CMD. I can install non market apps like the ones from here. So yeah, after Z4root. what now?
These phones are great for bricking, because a lot of times they're easy to fix. Try out themes, custom roms, custom kernels, it's all available to you now.
Can you guide me a bit? Please

Oh! I read this thread in the news section. If i understand it correctly it will allow me to uninstall preset apps without cmd?

I recently bought a Droid 2 Global and decided to get my feet wet with android development. To familiarize myself with the platform I wrote a simple utility for managing the bloat that came pre-installed on my phone. I thought there might be other people who would get some use out of this so I am posting it here. You will need to be rooted and have busybox installed to use this application. If you used z4root to root your phone then you should have everything you need.
The application is pretty simple. When you start it you are presented with a list of the Bloat that the application recognizes. Each item in the list has a checkbox that indicates whether it is enabled or not. To disable bloat you just uncheck the boxes next to what you don't want and then press the Apply button that appears at the bottom of the screen. You can save what you have disabled as a profile by pressing the options button and then choosing Save Profile. This is convenient because you are going to need to turn all of this bloat back on if you want to receive updates. If you have saved a profile and a new update becomes available you can launch Bloat Manager, press the options button, choose Enable All and then click Apply to get your phone ready for the update. After the update installs you can launch Bloat Manager, press the options button, choose Load Profile and then click Apply to turn the bloat back off.
The following applications can be toggled on or off using Bloat Manager:
Amazon MP3 /system/app/amazonmp3_1_8_14_signed_zipaligned_Signed_2010-09-09_15-23-51.apk
Blockbuster /system/app/Blockbuster.apk
City ID /system/app/CityID.apk
Friend Feed /system/app/FriendFeed.apk
Kindle /system/app/Kindle-1_0_2-OEM-SingleSign_Signed_2010-09-20_17-31-57.apk
My Net /system/app/Mynet.apk
My Verizon /system/app/MyVerizon.apk
News Widget /system/app/NewsWidget.apk
Performance Manager /system/app/PerformanceManager.apk
Skype /system/app/Skype_mobile.live.apk
Social Messaging /system/app/SocialMessaging.apk
Social Share /system/app/SocialShare.apk
VZNavigator /system/app/vnav_6.1.0.160_Droid2Global_rel_PROD_signed.apk
Visual Voice Mail /system/app/Vvm.apk
Weather Widget /system/app/WeatherWidget.apk
World Clock Widget /system/app/WorldClockWidget.apk
When you disable an application using Bloat Manager it simply renames it to .bak. When you re-enable an application it is renamed back to .apk.
Bloat Manager remounts your /system partition as writable in order to make changes to applications. I came up with this list based on what other people have had success with removing, but I have not personally turned off everything on the list. Changing things in your system partition is always dangerous so please be careful.

Iinstead of asking and waiting for responses, search on the forum or read a sticky or something to expand your knowledge if you aren't comfortable with cmd you probably shouldn't be messing with root privileges.

Wow. Since you put it that way.
But there's just too much. You cant blame me for being like this. I bricked my phone and they replaced the mother board (for free) and I am worried to do this again. I tried learning, I failed. And I don't like to be a wannabe developer of some sort, I just want to maximize my phone to it's potential and do what most people do.
You can say that I haven't exerted too much effort. In that case, maybe you're not the person I should me asking help from. Sorry, I was hurt.

CMD (command shell in windows,mac or linux) is only used when you change ROMs or unlock the bootloader (the program that loads the ROM) apps and themes have nothing to do with it, you will read ADB a lot which is basically a way to access the whole device remotely, most of this you do on the handset itself. Root is a term the same as apples jailbreak, which gives you complete access to everything (most is protected bloatware (apps) that network providers don't want you to delete, there is also a percentage of protection stopping you messing up bits that bricking your phone! Bricking doesn't mean screen wont work, force closes or not booting...it means DEAD! If see something cool that you fancy doing, research a little first and if you don't know what it is or means...DONT DO IT! Its that simple root is what you make it, it opens a lot of options but there's no rush to get to the end, the you learn doing little bits, the quicker you'll be confident flashing ROMs and maybe even developing your own customisations

If you want to maximize your phone's full potential you have to deal with thoses things, e.g.: joy 845 comes with the stock rom, which is slow and contains many things not needed, thus you have to flash another rom, better, faster etc...so yeah you have to be a wannabe in the end if you want to do what you want.
Check out Youtube how-to vids on rooting. Some are invaluable, especially the longer ones. Most of these guys take you step by step in detail.

[Q] I have used ADB on a coupe different ROM's since rooted, and also stock, mainly to take screen shots. Now, after I have downloaded a theme to my handset, my device will not conntect to ADB. I can't exactly tell what is going on, but the log says an app is terminating the connection in an unusual way. I can't really tell much more than that, and actually the DOS like cmd window that is open simultaneously with the console doesn't even expand the whole way horizontally so I can read the whole log entry....can a THEME do this? I am a noob but somewhat of a proficient one...still digging....but throwing the question out there in hopes that someone can help me can help me a little. One of my next tasks with this Android saga was to dig more deeply into adb...but I need to connect first :-o... someone can help me more quickly than me just pounding this out from scratch. Device and ROM in the sig. Thanks in advance....I suppose I can nandroid back to my ROM before this theme,,,but dang I kind of like it and want to know if the theme could possibly do this before I do....the other significant apps I've downloaded since last know good ADB connect is Root Explorer just tonight and the free app from Amazon today Executive Assistant,,,,both paid apps with high ratings.....and this theme I just yanked off the thread for this rom....
After installing the N8000XXALGA_N8000OXXALG5_PHE_RootGalaxyNote.com via Odin, the message "Unfortunately, S Note has stopped working" pops up every 5-9 seconds.
How do I resolve this situation?
Losing S-Note is not to be considered a preferable option.
The tablet is currently not really usable, as S-Note appears to be relaunching and crashing, so I can get one click, touch, or gesture between notices.
I wanted root access to avail myself of the market enabler, so I downloaded the pre-rooted ROM that's supposed to be reliable and stable, and it's supposed to keeps things stock, except for the fact that the tablet would then be rooted.
But now, I get an error message every 5 seconds telling me that S Note stopped working.
I can now get one click in, in between notices. What's worse, I can't temporarily stop S Note, to at least disable the warning, and let me try to do something.
I can't use my tablet, at all. And I haven't any other ROMs handy (except for the Jelly Bean leak).
But all I wanted was STOCK rooted... Not headache.
All I want is to use market enabler so I can download geometriq. Is that too much to ask for?!?!?
In my despair, I went into recovery mode and hit the factory reset button. I restarted my tablet as if brand new, all my files gone, my settings rearranged to default, everything... I would have backed up, but without root, I couldn't get Titanium Backup installed, previously. Now, even the demo stuff that comes with SNote is missing. Although, everything seems to be working, now.

You don't need root for that. Isn't market enabler an app for devices which don't have install unknown sources in settings? I had that app on my old phone. Note has the option built in. Note 10.1 settings, in security, has option to check unknown sources. Which allows you to install apps from other sources and not just marketplace. Works well for me as ive installed tons of apps that way and wasn't from marketplace.
If that's not what you mean then my bust

What you're referring to I think is the allowing of unknown sources. That's a little different from what I'm trying to do.
On a slightly different but still relevant note -no pun intended... Can I re-install S Note; if so, how?
Re-install your stock rom using ODIN... This will give back all stock apps...
Then go here - http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-no...t-galaxy-note-10-1-easiest-methodcwmmethod-2/ and follow the instructions... This will give root access to your stock rom (n8000) and you don't have another countries CSC...

Thanks for the reply.
But, that's exactly what I had done.
However, you know that initial collection of notes that are included, in a stock ROM?
My S Note is still missing that.
When I launch my S Note, it's barren
-not a single solitary note.
That's why I wasn't sure if reinstalling the ROM installed a brand new S Note, or what.
And that's why I was asking about reinstalling S Note itself.
As soon as you start a new note (+ key) it will give you the option of what note template you want to use...
And if you have installed an OTA to the latest you will now have a landscape template...

Thanks again for the reply. And thanks for bringing the landscape template to my attention; my S Note includes this template...But I'm not referring to the templates... I'm referring to the initial four Books, I think it was, that are included.
I'm not really sure what all I'm missing out on,
due to the absence of these included readings, that are missing from my Note 10.1
(I think one of these notes or a couple of the notes, are manuals).
But, beyond that, I really really want the ability to have a note/memo [like S Memo's widget allows].
On my S3 I have a whole pane dedicated to an instance of the widget.
I keep a list of things I need to do, on it; and it's always staring at me, without me having to do anything at all -I don't need to launch an application, I don't need to click any shortcuts, or go to any folder -it's just there..
And when I need to edit it or add something to it, I just simply double tap the screen, without having to launch any apps or go to application folders, or anything.
S Note has the mini app -but the mini app is REALLY always there, as in you can't get away from it, unless you close it.
And more importantly, for as long as it's there, it's editable, so it's prone to accidental smears.
S Note is an alright piece but it's just shy of gimmicky.
This S Memo feature, which enables users to take the S Pen and write a note -and keep it indefinitely handy is slightly harder to find. I've found other memo apps and note taking apps that are close -but never quite right. Some don't allow you to hand write (you have to keyboard your info in); and others don't offer this ever so wonderful widget...
This has become a tangential rant, hasn't it?
Sorry...
I just want S Memo for my note 10.1
I think I also had this issue after installing the pre-rooted European ROM on a US N8103.
I managed to find a solution - too late for you now though
1) Installing Titanium Backup Root + Pro Key via the Play Market in Windows
2) In TB Freezing S-Note and then wiping the cache (Swipe Left on the Apps Backup Properties to get to the Special Properties) I also tried wiping the Apps Data but that didn't make any difference.
You could do the same thing in Application Manager but I think it would take about 20 minutes scrolling down to maybe get to S Note whilst the message popped up. Alternately you could add a short cut to the home screen and try long pressing and dropping on to App Info - which you could maybe just about do between pop-ups.
I guess you could stick a recovery on it and just wipe the cache full stop?
[EDIT]
BTW how did you get on with the OTA didn't work out so well for me

I had the same issue after flashing the root injected stock ICS through ODIN. I was going from a rooted JB Rom (that did not work, and was not JB.. AA not the best site.)
Anyways the only way I was able to fix it was to painfully go through the Settings>Applications>All>S-Note Clear Cache/Data, and Force Stop.
It's tedious as hell, but it works. Your lucky yours is popping up every 5 minutes mine was about every 30 seconds took awhile to get through those menus! Hope this solves your issue!
Dear Mangers,
I have Android 6.0.1 ROM source code for a Tablet.
I have to remove all the apps e.g., browser, playstore, video player, camera app etc.
I have to add my app in it.
Means there should be only my app and few settings in the device.
Please guide me how to do it.
Regards,
Tanveer
Not sure if its the right answer but I will try to answer it so that you can get a starting point.
It all depends on what you want to do. Your question is very vague...
1. If you just want to run your app and nothing else then you can run your tablet in kiosk mode. Seach "android in kiosk mode" and you shall see results. I am using my phone right now so cant write too much or post links. This would be an easy and quick fix method.
2. If you have source code and want to make own rom then you will have to learn it yourself. The starting point I assume would be finding the chipset of the tablet and then searching for tools that support customizatiin for that chipset. Then you can add or remove apps and oyher things like boot logo and boot animation ans build a rom of yourself. This is not a one day or two day job. Its time consuming. Have 1 or 2 tablets to mess up on the side.
