Anyone know how to delete the Serve.me app that came reinstalled on the phone? I used Titainium Backup to uninstall it but it doesn't work.
Never heard of it. Is your phone rooted?
It's rooted. The Serve.Me app is in French. I found a Youtube video testing the app but I can't post external link. Just search for "Serve.Me John Paul" if you're interested.

I have never heard of this, however it could suggest that the phone is branded, perhaps debrand to get rid. I had an app called traffic tv that i just couldnt get rid of, once i debranded it disappeared no problem. It also means that the delayed 2.1 update will be available before your operator adds their "features"

With RootExplorer have a look in data/app-private and if there is an apk in there of it delete that too, and from data/app also.

I believe that app is installed in the generic french firmware.
I got rid of it by replacing the generic french firmware with uk generic.
How do I find out if my phone is branded and for what market? Sorry for the newbie question. I'm new to this forum.

Where did you get it from.
At a local store here in the US. I was told it's an oversea phone but didn't mention where.

with the lock screen visible.. press the following key combo..
Menu back back menu Back Menu menu back
This will give you a service menu... select "service info" then "Model info"
That will tell you the phone model, country, and brand.
Thanks. It states country is France and brand customized FR.
So i guess that mean its branded?
Is there a customized firmware for north america? I saw the debrand thread but there are too many files.
Not sure which to get.

Hi,
I've got problem after updating my X10 into R2B020. I found my simtoolkit was disappeared. Oh yes, my playnow was disappeared too. Does anyone know how to get them back? Especially the sim toolkit.
Thanks.

few issues
Are u using a home replacement app? i know a couple like Panda that can hide certain apps?
if your rooted, it may just be a accidental change of one true/false value
but all i can say for sure is to REINSTALL the OS, back everything up and start again
are u using your origional rom?
Yes, I use original rom. Previously I updated the firmwire through SEUS but suddenly my sim toolkit disappeared.
I didn't use any home replacement. I had shortcut to sim toolkit in home screen but now the shortcut is not working anymore.
Any suggestion how to bring it back?

I thought you can't remove STK unless your phone is rooted. Have you tried to update into R2BA020? Mine is gone.. but I want it back since it has phone banking service.
Mine is rooted but I didnt have courage to remove it since Ive had major issues when I have removed GTalk...
Just make backup first than remove it. You may use andro to make backup. If your phone is not working Perfectly, than you can restore.
Still curious how to get sim tool kit back.

i managed to get the play now back. but the STK, sorry cant do as of now.
here is how:
1. download OI Manager apps from market
2. once install, open the apps and look for the folder called "system" then "app"
3. look for the file name called "playnowarena.apk" and "playnowarena_updater.apk" and install them.
4. Your play now should now back to your file list.
note: the STK.apk is in the folder too, but it give an error message "cannot install in this phone." so i guess there is a program or bug that SE wrote this build number and caused the STK and play now app from installing when doing the update.
Thanks for advice. But somehow it didn't work for me.
I installed IO file manager then I went to /system/apps but can't find playnowarena.stk and playnowarena_updater.stk. If I used astro, then those 2 stk are there.
I've contacted sony ericsson support regarding this issue but no respond yet.

Well i had some probs as well. Changed the /system/csc/sales_code.dat==> to VDF.
Build.prop:
ro.product.locale.language=nl
ro.product.locale.region=NL
That gave me full acces to Samsung Apps en Media-Hub widget
I asked samsungapps directly about this problem and was told that samsungapps was not supported on the Galaxy Tab. Strange that it downloads the Tabs 4 main apps from samsungapps when you first start using the Tab but then nothing. I put the same SIM in my phone and samsungapps went fine. It is just blocked on the Tab. Kies told me the same thing.
That is it in Thailand anyway, it may be a different story in other countries but I know samsungapps doesn't work in Laos which is a short swim away over the Mekong.
It is a bit like google market, technically only available in certain countries.

i really could not tell you what the differences are but all i can tell you is that i got the build.prop from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909058
it sates to use this build.prop to work with the Media Hub.
well actually what i can remember is that my original build.prop has the devise name as GT-P100 (from Euro firmware)
and the region as GB
and the build.prop i used from the thread had the devise name as SGH-I987 (from At&T)
and region as US
now on the back of my tab it reads as devise being SGH-T849 (from T-Mobile)
i couldnt tell you any other differences between the two that would make my Samsung Apps app stop from working.
sorry cant really get a screen capture.......
Hello everyone.
I have a DHD unrooted.
Im trying to install Navionics Mediterannean on it but i cant find it
on the market.
I sent e-mail to navionics and they told me that the app is available
for my phone but i still cant find it.
Even if i go from my pc to the market, find the app on the dropdown
meny where you select your phone, it sais its not possible
to install this app on your phone next to the model of my phone.
Any ideas?
Its not in my market either. I'm guessing its not compatible with it. I'm rooted and unbranded.
It depends on your region. There is countries where all apps is available and countries where list is limited. For example I'm from/in Latvia and there is no one non-free app in market but whose are available in USA or UK and dozen else countries.

I dont want to root for no reason

No luck with US networks.
Not sure if it helps ,but I can see it and when I select "My DHD" in the drop down menu it shows as available.I'm in Canada on Telus ,so it may not be relevant.

I'm hoping to receive my SGS2 from Vodafone UK tomorrow.
I know they will have added their own bloatware on it so want to flash an original firmware or custom ROM straight away.
How can I get an image of the Voda firmware so that I can flash it back should I need to return the phone?

Look over in the dev forum for the complete guide to de-branding and re-branding. You'll have to wait until a Vodafone ROM shows up online but that'll be a matter of days I'm sure.
As far as I know vodafone don't put any bloatware on their handsets.

No bloatware the original sgs was full of vodafone crap
Excepting similar tweaks as per o2, startup logo and settings limited to vodafone. Hopefully it's in the post today so should be able to see the results tonight.
As for being able to restore to Vodafone FW, nothing at the moment, but once an update is out it will be fine, or wait for someone to try and extract it.
