If you root your phone you can remove bloatware like Sprint nav, Sprint tv, Sprint zone, some of the HTC things like news stocks I mean you can do a whole lot once rooted

There are apps to control start up apps too once you root.

Alright well I just rooted my phone, do you suggest any apps to control the start ups?

Startup cleaner 2.0 looks well..but there aren't many apps that delay starting..so if you want to look into it go ahead but the difference wouldn't be enormous

Screen Timeout

Has anyone figured out a way to keep the screen on when maps is on? I know Sprint Nav will stay on, but I would like to keep maps on without the screen timing out. You would think Google would have a feature that when plugged in would allow certain apps to keep the screen on.
I know it sounds like I'm plugging the hell out of it lately (it has so many features), but widgetsoid had a toggle to keep screen on

Give SmartTaskbar Pro a try. Not sure if it's exactly what you're looking for, but worth a peek. I've been using it for about a month now and it's pretty slick.
Ehh not really looking for a launcher of that sort, but thanks anyways. =] the search must go on..

[Q] Titanium pro

may seem like a dumb question but when Titanium Pro backs up system data and apps does it also back up movies in my download folder and stuff like that?
No. Only apps and app setttings.

1 month slow down

It's been a month and I have tons of apps and now the phones all of a sudden lagging. Anyone else notice this?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Like everything lags or just particular apps/functions (sms, recent apps, etc)? Have you tried wiping cache in recovery?
R u rooted and do u have a recovery?
How about using the built in memory cleaner that frees up ram.add a swap along with your ram.I guess more info is needed to help u
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
Use holo launcher hd as ur default launcher....im convinced touchwiz has leaks
I havr advanfed task killer installed and let it run idling. ...normally I never use it but on the rare super lag I kill everything in memory (I.e. no auto kill as normally android does better memory management on its own)

Had mine for exactly one month today and nope, no lags at all.
Are you using Greenify (if rooted)?

i mean yeah it works and all but it doesnt mean it stops the lag lol...
Have a ton of crap on your phone will slow it down, and I'm assuming you already knew this. I'm going to assume that you mean your phone took a massive lag attack all of a sudden.
I'm going to say it's something in your memory that keeps launching itself. What's the last app you installed? How many apps run in the background on your phone?

Good luck
