On Titanium Backup, I was getting rid of some system apps that I didn't want, and I came upon "AdService 1.0", if I delete this will it get rid of all the advertisements on my phone?

I don't know if removing this app will get rid of the ads, but downloading Ad Free from the market will.

Nothing will disable all ads.
But, to answer your question, i've tried freezing it, and i've had no adverse effects, but I don't really see any ads disappearing either.
So I understand the idea of switching roms, but there's a lot more to my phone that makes it useful. While a lot of data will be fine (all data that sync with google will automatically be pulled in), I'm worried about the rest of my data, such as apps and the way I have them configured. I'd imagine its annoying to have to reset them each time I install a new rom.
Is there any proper way of handling this so that one can flash a new rom, but automatically install one's apps as well as perhaps reset their configured state to the state one saved?
just wondering what's considered the best way to handle this?
Titanium backup gets most of it, adw has settings backups... Its tollerable and you get quick at it.

Some flashes allow you to do an advanced restore/data, too. And many apps allow you to save/export/import your settings.

Titanium, but it's not all smooth sailing. Many times, it won't relink 5-10 apps to the store, and the fixer wizard thing won't work. You have to reinstall the app... but the data is still okay.
Hey. I've asked this before, but never really got a clear answer.
I currently have a bunch of market apps installed on my phone and SD card. Last time I cleared my phone, I did a backup using Titanium. Upon restoring all of my apps, it didn't seem to restore them as much as it seemed to reinstall them, since I had to accept the security risks for each application individually and hit install, install, install, install, etc.
With the VERY SMALL possibility of an official 2.2 coming out soon, I know I will need to flash my phone back to 2.1. That said, is there a better/easier way to backup AND restore my apps?
The donate version of titanium backup automatically installs your apps
Well any time you try yo restore your apps it can cause problems with force closes so try to use titanium as least as possible. The.only other way is to.do a backup and.then you can restore data thru cwm. Its always just a better idea to just do a fresh install on it.

Wrong, I've never had titanium give me fc issues. Restore apps With data only in titanium, don't restore system data.

Mybackup pro. Its simple. It works every time. In my experience, It restores faster than titanium and more reliable. Restores the full apk+data+market link. I think titanium is the app of choice due to its geeky ui. Can anyone show me otherwise?... id be curious to see if there are any advantages.

The best way to do it is to reinstall the apps via the market and just use titanium to restore the app data

i love Mybackup Pro, works great. i like how it puts the apps back in the exact configuration that you had them on your homescreen. but, it did fail me once or twice, where i went to restore, and it said 'could not get backup set'..... maybe that was something funky i did? otherwise i love that app.

i like using the market, but how come it usually only lists a limited number of my apps that i got form the market? it doesn't seem to add them to my list as i download more...
I got no axe to grind as I have Titanium Backup Pro, MyBackup Pro, and a few other misc backup tools. I use them all. However, I never backup system data through anything other than cwm.

Any data that's not specific to a 3rd party application.
Longer way but will provide a fresh install of apps is just use AppBrain.

Any data that isn't specific to a third party application would be my Google mail, my Google Calendar, and my Google contacts. All of which is maintained by the Google cloud, and replicated down to me when I wipe my phone.
Not sure what other data there is that isn't related to a third party application that I would need to back up???
For example, your wifi networks and passwords, bluetooth pairings, your call log and text message history are all system data you can restore.

I don't know if these two work on an hd2, but I used to use titanium backup or root explorer to remove stubborn apps.

Hi,
I use SUPERBOX.
It's a great free app,which has loads of functions,one of which is an uninstaller.
It's worth a try.
thanks guys
i think titanium backup did the job
i also installed superbox which is an amazing app to have for any user
When I got my G2, I rooted with Visionary and disabled the packages for all of the preinstalled crap that I didn't want like Facebook and Twitter.
However, since the most recent firmware update, I noticed that Photobucket has managed to crawl out of the grave I dug for it and is now happily running in the background and prompting me to share my photos when all I want to do is share my fist with its face.
Is the only way to crush this thing to downgrade back to Froyo and re-root? I never took the steps to cascade my root into Gingerbread since disabling those packages was the only thing I ever did with root.
As a side note, **** T-Mobile for preloading un-uninstallable stuff on this phone.
I installed a rooted stock gb ROM and then used Titanium Backup to yank the unwanted stuff like Facebook and photobucket.

there is also a great app (requires root) called Root App Remover that will remove any stock app without all of the bloat of Ti Backup
you can uninstall most things with titanium backup, another handy feature is you can detach an app from the
market to stop it getting updates
