[Q] ClockworkMod + Titanium Force Remove App doesn't work - G2 and Desire Z General

I have my Desire Z with S-OFF using ClockworkMod and I tried to use the Titanium at to remove the Bell bloatware. Uninstalling doesn't work because it's part of the system image. So I tried the force remove app with removes it from the system and says will restart the phone twice.
It goes and restarts but it stops at the ClockworkMod bootloader screen. Is there a way around this or a different way to remove the apps? Anyone else run into this problem? I don't really want to go through the whole unbranding thing...

Click menu and go into batch mode and scroll to bottom where u fibd user and system apps...thats how i removed mine

Didn't work, it just removes them from the Titanium list and they are still in my app drawer and functionable... when I restart they come back to the titanium list...

I just retried doing the regular uninstall instead of the force remove again and it seems to have worked. I haven't restarted my phone yet (with fastboot off) but the apps are gone from the app drawer and they didn't do that last time I tried it.

I have the same issue, it appears that the ClockworkMod interferes with the rebooting of Titanium Backup to delete the items. I would bet that if you do a restart the apps will be back on the phone.

How to move the already installed apps from phone to SD card ?

Can anyone tell me in details ?

Depends on what ROM your running.

It's running CM 6.0.0-DS
The easiest way is to buy the donate version of titanium backup. It has a batch process to move all user installed apps to SD card, and back if you want. Have to be rooted I'm pretty sure. Otherwise go to settings, applications, manage applications, and you can move them one by one.

My suggestion is to go to settings, applications, manage applications and you can select some that are not used very frequently so that will not have an impact on the performance of your phone.
CM6 is an awesome ROM!
Yup CM6 have that good feature in option.change app install into SD. Have not try it myself. Ran into it accidentally. Kekeke

One thing to remember is that not all apps can be movedro the SD card.

Google sync downloads them all. I use adw launcher that allows you to back up app placement on you home screens. Makes it real easy to resetup everything when I flash to a new rom.

stock messaging in cm7

does anyone know how i can remove the stock messaging in cm7 and replace it with the one in wildpuzzle or can i remove it and replace with go sms
You can't install sense apps, and yeah you can install go SMS, I don't see the problem..., if you wanna completely remove the stock app, use adb to remove it or titanium backup.

Replace Sys Apps

I searched on google with no answers so I want to make sure I am right.
I have backed up several htc apps from sense 3.0 like camera, keyboard, etc. I want to replace the RoyalGinger keyboard, camera, etc.
I tried root explorer mount and permissions set right. But once I try instsll it says Application Not Installed
How do I do so, with Root Explorer? ADB?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
by "backed up" do you mean you saved the .apk somewhere? if not, do that first.
Then, with root explorer, navigate to /system/app, mount as r/w and just place those
.apks that you backed up, into /system/app. then reboot

Ok so wifi hotspot showed upin the list but force closes. Inside wireless settings hotspot showsup and works though is that stock to royalginger?
How do I replace apps now? I can add but they wont work, incompatible?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
Is it just that app that force closes? have you tried any others?
I believe wifi hotspot is a feature included in royalginger, but i havent used that rom in a long time. You shouldnt need a separate app for it if its inside of Wireless Settings though.
I don't think you can use sense system apps with royal ginger. Specially sense 3.0 system apps

Yeah well I have all dependencies frm 3.0 backed up as apk. The entire sense ui. Id like to use sense lockscreen
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
lol i guarantee you do not know each and every dependency required by each Sense app. and they are not in the form of an apk. look through the hundreds of files in the /system/bin and /system/lib folders, then try to tell me you know which files are needed.

You deleted an apk that runs in the background unfortunetly u will have to re flash

That happened to me when i was on stock, usually rebooting would fix it...
Reflash, install custom recovery, make a nand backup, then go to town deleting/freezing. Always backup first.
