it is indeed however if i was to remove it from my files which would it actually affect? system apps/apps included in the rom or sprints firmware,profile,prl and android updates?

Its called sprint app updater so what do you think it will effect? If your rooted you don't have to worrie about the rest of the **** you mentioned anyways just the prl but its a app updater and nothing more.. I do know sprint visual voicemail will not work after you uninstall.

[Q] How to disable Hands Free Activation?

Hands free activation is timing out and not working. I programmed my # and msid manually, so there's no need for this **** to keep popping up and running in the background.. is there something specific I need to do to kill this?
Well, ****, it worked when I turned on Wi-Fi!
let the activation go through it should ask you to reboot or just stop
you can always root and remove it...idk what apk it uses
what about flashing your phone with stock?
I am having this problem too. Sorry if this is thread resurrection.
It would seem that unlike the Hero, it is not omadm.apk (not present).

People on XDA make absolutely no god damn sense. If a user ressurects an old thread you give him **** for it. If he posts a new thread you give him **** for posting a thread that already exists. Aka people on XDA seem to find ways to act like dicks no matter what people do.

This has been answered time and time again, nonetheless someone else is going to ask in the future, I just hope they google this and end up reading the solution on this thread.
To "disable" hands-free activation (handy for those on alternate carriers) UNINSTALL systemupdates.apk
Yes, you need to be rooted. Yes you need a root uninstall app to remove it. Yes, you can use a rooted file manager and manually remove it.

Find root uninstaller in the android market, look under the system apps, it'll be in red. It'll look like a green circular icon with a white check in the middle.
Also, I believe it's in system/app

No prob, and yeah, I had another thread stating that newer builds had it renamed. Even the original epic has the apk renamed from leaked FB15 and onwards to devicemanagement.apk as you said.

Did you get any notification or anything that would let you know this was happening?
This pertains to my interests. Please upload files so that I may have sexy time with them.
i suddenly noticed it today
Just as I posted, I noticed my screen came on. So I went to unlock my phone to see wtf was up and a notification box came up. I was dragging the unlock button simultaneously as this happened, and it disappeared. I really, really want to know what it said. I feel lucky for an update of some sort.
So what exactly does this look/do? I wanna see if mine updated or not lol

I guess the best part is an 'update all' button. though I didn't think that the froyo market worked on 2.1 but maybe i'm wrong..
If you think about it, none of the froyo market features really required the jit compiler or c2dm that froyo has so it should work on 2.1 easily

Just don't get confused by the filename. remove the '.zip' from the end, then install like a normal apk.

[Q] Best Rom for Froyo 2.2.1. & rooted Samsung Epic

I have a samsung epic rooted currently on Froyo 2.2.1 with clockwork mod
Im looking for a rom thats fast, has no issues & has the homescreen that look like the evo, even if a rom makes my Epic run like its a Evo is cool too? please let me know
Htc sense isn't available for Samsung Epic. But...you can install Beautiful Widgets app to look like the Htc Sense clock for your home screen.

+1 I couldn't stop laughing
my phone is rooted, & from what i read, when your fones rooted, it puts a program called super user on your phone which allows you access to apps regular phones cant & that those apps are free. & after reading the reviews on beautiful wigets ppl are saying that the programs weather is often wrong like it says sunny @ 2a.m. lol n that it sucks battery dry n slow fone down
have yu had problems out if it.
Guy, don't believe everything you read. I know this might come as a complete surprise but not everyone knows what they are doing with their phones and misinformation is spread constantly. Try it for yourself, if you don't like it, refund it in less than 24hrs.
Just because you rooted doesn't mean pay apps are free. Yes there are apps that need root to function properly that are free, as there are also ones that are not free.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
I use beautiful widgets for my clock and weather and have seen no problems with it being correct. I also use LauncherPro, both of these together basically mimics EVO's Sense UI perfectly.
ok thanks for the information, are you familiar with superuser?

Superuser refers to the user's ability to access system functions. With android it essentially grants admin access allowing you to modify things usually 'off-limits' to standard users.
oh ok cool. what do you have in your superuser?
This can't be real
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
what do yu have in your superuser? all i have is the wireless tether
C'mon people don't be so harsh.
Basically the idea is just to let you access functions that are generally blocked by sprint or samsung. How you want to use it is up to you.

It is something they added that is basically like a theme changer.
who said anythign about sprint ID in EC05?
It's not really a theme changer what T-Mobile made for 2.3 is a theme changer, it basically is a application pack that gives you certain apps/advertisements varying on what pack you download. It's a crappy idea because all it does is change your wallpaper and give you random applications. Doesn't benefit the user.

Not quiet true. Basically it allows you to choose what Sprint apps you want on your phone and other customizations. It adds widgets ect. It's one single apk and will be easily removable...... Now if Sprint really wanted to make life easier they would make Samsung scrap TW
Sprint said they were including Sprint ID on all their phones when they first announced it. In a Q&A they said it was coming to the Epic. I was surprised it wasn't in EB13.

You seem like the person to ask with as much knowledge as you know about phones and all the work you've created; good grief. I am stuck with Sprint and cant leave until next year without paying ETF; long story short; get terrible service and have airave (only works half the time and have 3 replacements-sprint does not want to address to issue; and me being on a SERO account probably doesn't help either) but someone in a different thread mentioned about a sprint diagnostic tool that you can use to force your phone to Roam verizon towers and get the boot rather quickly from sprint; unfortunately he said it was only for samsung devices; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774503

Sprint will boot you and terminate the contract with no etf if you do it enough. Not that I would condone such a thing.
I didn't know if there was such a tool that could work for the evo shift that you knew of since you work with other devs and know A LOT about A LOT of stuff. I searched google a bit then headed over here of the forums, but couldnt find much in regards to it for my phone. thanks in advance

I came across this for the HTC EVO, not shift; but maaaybe http://themikmik.com/showthread.php?16026-On-The-Fly-PRL-Change-PRL-Changes-With-and-Without-a-PC
Why don't you just put your phone into roam only mode. Eventually Sprint won't want you any more...

I thought the PRL would need to be changed to something different; I will give Roam Control a go and keep in Roaming...thanks
No you don't need to change your prl. Also, Several Shift ROMs like newSENSE Supreme Sense and StockMod have roam only as an option built in so you don't have to buy roam control if you don't want too.
