[Q] How to uninstall apps installed from recovery? - General Questions and Answers

Hi I'm still new so i don't really know much i hope you don't mind me asking this! If i installed something via the clockworkmod recovery can i uninstall it back? If yes,how?

Thats why u need backup. If u can find the exact files that you flashed u can delete them ... And its not easy for mods.

You cant uninstall apps from recovery but you can clear data on what application you want , Clear data means the app has restart like a new apps installed on your devices.
By using aroma file manager (aromafm) By Amarullz from XDA Developers you can do it.
But you need a root.
In cwm/twrp you need to mount all in mount and storage section.
Then go back choose install zip and select aromafm.zip
After that go to system/data/app and find the that you want to clear data and just delete that file. And you're done.

Hi Team,

Titanium Backup will do it...you have to be rooted.
Thanks Mate
Downloaded gona try it
Uninstalled .. Didnt help or may be i dont know how to use it ....
Just open the rom zip on your PC, and browse to the system/apps and delete what you don't want, then flash it.

In TB (after giving it SU via busybox) select Backup/Restore, find/select your app, & then select Un-Install.

Deleting the stock applications

I have a galaxy fit which I just rooted and nothing more. No roms and stuff. Now i want to remove the stock applications and I tried it on titanium app. It does something, restarts and that app is still there. I don't want to freeze the app. I want to completely remove it so that I can have some more space in my internal memory.

Once you have rooted your phone , install the program Root Explorer.
Select Read Write Permissions
Go to system -> Apps and mark the ones you want to get rid off.
There can be nothing simpler than this.
File attached for your reference
But will it completely deleted them giving be space in my phone memory??

Use the sd maid app from the market.This app freed up 40 MB from the internal storage without deleting any app.
You can also force app2sd to save space.
Delete system apps only when you're extremely desperate and the above methods fail..i think there is a rom for us which will restore all the factory apps, just in case you want to go back..

Stock application removing
YOU MUST BE ROOTED FOR REMOVING STOCK APPLICATION.
I THINK" RootAppDelete" ( AVAILABLE IN MARKET ) IS THE BEST.
BECAUSE WE CAN MOVE THE APPLICATION INTO RECYCLE AND WE CAN RECOVER IT FROM RECYCLE WHENEVER WE NEED IT BACK.
IF WE PERMANENTLY DELETE THE APPLICATION AND IN CASE WE NEED THE APPLICATION BACK WE HAVE TO FLASH THE ROM AGAIN.
You can even try "system app remover"....I don't think its available on the market but you can just google it...it removes and moves system as well as apps on sd card....hope I helped

You can use root explorer app to remove stock rom app and don't forget to wipe the cache from the recovery menu, just wipe cache not wipe data...

ICS installation for HTC Wildfire S

Cud anybody help me with the istallation procedure for the following link..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683874
Really confused here and wanna install ICS 4.0.4 for my phone :/
0. Make sure you're rooted
1. I think you also need s-off
1.5. Download the ROM file, and the Gapps file
2. Flash a custom recovery, such as ClockWorkMod. The easiest way is to download ROM Manager
3. Boot into that recovery. This can be done by using ROM Manager, or some device specific method (search it)
4. Make a backup (use the volume keys to navigate, select and back buttons are different for each phone, but should be easy to figure out)
5. Clear data/factory reset. OPTIONAL: under advanced clear dalvik cache
6. Install zip from SD card, navigate to the downloaded ROM, and select
7. Let it install, then install zip from SD card again, but this time select the google apps file
8. Reboot and enjoy! First bootup will always take longer than normal.
NOTE: since you do a factory reset, its a good idea to backup your apps with titanium backup, and various other things (like sms and mms) with mybackup root
This is the procedure for flashing any non-Sense (lol) ROM as well
Hope this helps!

I really doubt the Wildfire S to be powerful enough to manage running ICS smoothly.
Anyway, good luck!
Rooting the phone is such a pain in the ass wid the bootloader requiring as many as 14-15 software's installed b4 it can work properly and also crashes everytime!!

You don't need recovery for link2sd. But for other things like flashing roms you will need recovery. Twrp is nice option.

ok downloading jaggy 4.0
u can also partition sd card using cwm
to use link2sd
as i do in my case :
go to cwm recovery
go to advanced in cwm
partition sd card choose required partition (i recommend 1/4th of your sd total )
takes time ( bigger the partition more time)
select swap = 0
choose ext type as .ext2
download link2d it will automatically detect the second partition
ur good to go
also dont uninstall system apps it may make ur rom and other system apps unstable (i tried it using titanium backup pro)
hit thanks if helped i need it

[Q] Install ZIP from SD Card missing?

I'm sure this has been resolved in some other thread but I just can't find the right one. So please spare 10 seconds for a reply and help me.
I have a HTC HD2, with Gingerbread HD2 v2.1, Android 2.3.2 installed. I was looking for a way to uninstall the Facebook system app (somebody thought it was a good idea to add Facebook as a system app )
I had the Jellybean 4.2 installed before I downgraded because it would just take too much space. And now apparently my phone is not rooted anymore (hence not being able to uninstall system apps).
I'm a noob when it comes to Android so please bear with me. I found a script (customizable), archived on a ZIP file, that will delete any system app even if the phone is not rooted.
But when I go into recovery mode, the option "Install ZIP from SD Card" seems to be missing. How can I install the ZIP file if the option is not there?
P.S. If you know a better way to uninstall system apps from an unrooted phone, please share it.

I suppose you tried to install that zip to root your device, right.?
Try a different, new and safe recovery. Root the device. Install titanium backup app. using it you can uninstall the system app.

No actually, that ZIP file contained a script that would uninstall some system apps. I can't uninstall them otherwise because it says my phone is not rooted anymore.
