Disabeling apps. Feature from ICS - Galaxy S II General

Is this the best new feature in ICS:
https://plus.google.com/u/0/112413860260589530492/posts/DDTKFhiDS9U?hl=en
Disabling Apps
ICS adds the ability to disable an app outright. Don't like an app that came preinstalled? Disable it! Its resources never run and its launcher icon is gone until you re-enable it. (This doesn't free up any space -- it can't, since pre-installed apps are included in the read-only system storage. But it does put them "out of sight, out of mind.")
Wonders if this will work in TW too, or if Samsung somehow disables this feature as Android is open source?

If only there were some other ICS threads in the Samsung Galaxy II area of the forums where this kind of stuff might already be!
Instead of speculating about whether an as yet unreleased feature works for your phone, why not just root and freeze/uninstall apps you don't want?

You're free to skip reading the thread... ;-)
No, I won't root yet, therefore I hope this feature will survive to our phones. And, what are the chances for that?

Is this feature available in the betas out now?

It is not recommended to disable some of the apps as it might cause your phone to freeze and not updating on the fly.

Problems with every rom

I've tried many different roms such as jvo, jvh, jvp and jvq. I've tried darkys, juwes, gingerreal , f1, insanity and miui but they all have these problems after the phone has been 'up' for over a day. When I exit a game using home or back my launcher restarts.

You are using tw launcher ? If not, you should check your task killer program. Maybe you got the option "stAy in ram". If yes, choose it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1175514&highlight=launcher+restarts
I havent tried the stuff in this thread but it is interesting, and on the second page, there is a posted .apk that apparently solves it..
Like saphirrot said, if the launcher has a 'stay in mem' option, check it. I've done that with Launcher Pro and the launcher restart happens far far less.
It's just android freeing up ram for the game. It's a pain in the ass but better than not being able to run a game because of low memory.

I use super manager or astro manager. They have app managers and allow you to install .apk files. Super manager is great if you have root access as you can uninstall bloatware apps like aldiko, layar etc. Make sure to backup app just in case anything goes wrong.

I use AppInstaller. Very simple.
Thanks guys I installed the apk and my launcher no longer restarts but apps still close even when I go off them using the home button so I can return to them in a minute and be where I left it. Is there any apk for this as it is frustrating when you go off an app for a minute only to find it's closed when u go back on it.

Actually the apk hasn't worked. Launcher is still rebooting when I go back to the home screen.

Nothing is wrong. It's running out of memory. Android shall release background tasks if foreground tasks need the memory. Since Gingerbread, you can no longer force most things to stay in memory so those features are mostly useless these days. Should have kept to one ROM and asked your question in its thread. Too many things to suggest to tune it properly really. Uninstalling system apps you don't use and trying different kernels are your last options.

This is completely unacceptable then, you can't even multitask. And after the phone has been 'up' for over 12 hours you can't even keep the dialer in memory! There must be a way around this. A smartphone should not take over 3 seconds to open the dialer.

I have never seen this problem before, and since it so several I have to assume that if other people had it, they would have posted about it.
That means that it is either due to a problem with your hardware, or due to something you are installing/configuring. I would do a full factory default then add apps back very slowly, one by one, doing some basic testing in between. That way you may be able to isolate the problem.
If it still happens right after the factory reset, take the phone to a service center.

I have seen people talk about it but the answers are since gingerbread apps get closed because of memory meaning that the dialer doesn't even stay in memory after the phone has been booted.for a while.

It's a legitimate request I've seen before. I mean, why let your old devices just waste away when your children or family members could totally use them as dirt cheap replacements for iPods and such. You don't want them making accidental emergency calls or circumventing the settings you put in place.
Should be able to completely remove the radio somehow so that the cellular stuff just won't work.

Maybe this is a project for some of the budding devs on xda. In theory, it sounds like a simple change. Simply remove the phone aspects of a rom and repackage. I'm sure it's harder than it sounds in terms of stability and usability though (I'm not a dev) =/

Eh, some apps certainly wouldn't work, anything that needs to communicate through telephony and such. But really shouldn't be that difficult.
I'll come back when I'm not too terribly busy with some links about breaking down and customizing ROMs and such. I know that I've found a thread specifically for this kind of thing for another device, but there are a few of them I read up on so it may take a while to locate. Hell, you could just about remove the phone and contacts apps and edit your build.prop and leave an existing ROM intact. I'm no dev or anything though lol so I'll look around.

Not the OG article I had read, but after a bit of Googling I came up with a script that you should be able to set to run at boot which will disable your radio.
You may also be able to dial *#*#INFO#*#* and choose turn off radio, but that will not be persistent across reboots. I would use the script and a third-party launcher that can hide apps so that you'll keep the phone and contacts apps and such for stability, but not have them readily available.
*EDIT:
And a flashable zip! Thank you jellybellys!
**EDIT:
Just to elaborate about that flashable zip, it will actually "permanently" (until you wipe and install another ROM) disable the radio and clean out the apps that you don't want. Also installs some kind of binaries if they're currently absent from the ROM. Great find, I'm glad you asked about this!
exactly, my first thought would be just to use titanium backup and disable/freeze but not remove apps such as dialer or what you dont want/need. not sure if this will work but its worth a try. probably a few treads across xda on this (especially on older model phones) id search in those and see if there is a quick answer short of developing a whole new rom

So you used the zip, and once booted those processes were force closing?

So that's the MIUI.us "Pure English?" I've just downloaded the last available build and will soon flash and then install jellybellys's zip. I'm hoping that will get me the same FC's as you are.
Once you've gotten home after the weekend, try rebooting it a time or two and see if it consistently gives you the FC's.
Also, just curious, but are you using MIUI just because it's the most similar Android overlay to iOS? To make it a bit easier for your friend? Because you could hook him up with some ICS goodness otherwise
*EDIT:
Ok, looking through his updater-script vs. my /system/app/ directory, it looks like MIUI names a couple of apk's differently. I'm currently installing a fresh MIUI so that I can see the directory before moddified by the OG jellybellys zip, then I'll update his zip to reflect those different names and try to run it again. If successful, I'll post the modified file and hopefully we can get your friend a fun little multi-tasking media player
Ok sweet umm can u send me the edit zip
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using Tapatalk 2
Had a good look at the flashable zip, very simple. I need to learn to code, I guess this is a good small place to start lol
All I did was unzip his file, change a few things and added a couple extra lines to remove one more app he hadn't worried with. As said above this will disable your radio, install the radiooptions binary if absent, and remove a number of apk's from the /system/app/ directory.
Removed apps:
TelephonyProvider.apk - cellular service
TelocationProvider.apk - emergency location service (I just don't see the need if you're not connecting to cellular networks)
Phone.apk - your phone app - should also get rid of dialer, I'm trying to find out why it doesn't.
Mms.apk - messaging app
All credit to jellybellys @ rootzwiki.com of course, I couldn't have written this myself or anything.
jellybellys-mod-wifionly-MIUI
Again, the phone app will still be on the homescreen and you actually can't remove it. It won't dial anything, and will just cause the acore process to FC if you try. It's looking like the only way to get it really removed is to modify the ROM's zip so that it never installs the app to begin with.
I'm going to restore the apps again, see if Titanium Backup can't do a better job than outright removing the app does.

Reduce battery fast drain by disabling some stock processes.

This practice doesn't cause any problems on my GNote with stock ICS ROM 4.0.3.
However, it helps saving more juice or not? still curious but I think it's perceptible!

Faster TouchWiz?

So is there any improvement in the latest touchwiz? Any opinion from S5 users? And maybe for those who had the chance to see a Note 4 from close ?
Im in S3 and I dont like the touchwiz laggy and problematic as hell. I have a fear to buy samsung device again. I am thinking of the note 4 just because of the feature to capture images and transform them in editable text.
But im worried about the touchwiz..

Have you considered trying a different launcher? Touchwiz is very resource-intensive, but many of the third-party launchers are very quick. I'm using Google Now launcher on my Note 2, and it still flies. It will make your S3 much faster, anyway.
You could do the same thing with the Note 4, but you'd likely lose some of the S-Pen functionality.

Fighting with myself over TouchWiz
I've been using alternate launchers for a long time. Was on Go Launcher for most time, but relatively recently I've moved to Noval Launcher, as it has caught up with Go Launcher features, and it seems that Go was a bit buggy in more recent releases.
All that being said, I am presuming at this point that I may want to actually utilize some of the features that TW offers, and won't be ther on other launchers. On the other hand, I too fear lag/performance issues, and loss of features in Nova that I am so accustomed to.
Of course, I suppose I need to get the phone in my hands first before worrying about TW.
You can replace the dialer by simply installing another one from the store. But when someone calls you, you will be faced with a lag followed by a black screen with status bar at top and then BOOM! The laggy samsung phone app (Don't worry your phone didn't blow up
---------- Post added at 01:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 PM ----------
About the improved TW on S5, I have a S3 phone rooted with QS ROM installed and Boeffla 6.1 beta4 linaro installed and a S5 transformation pack supported by QS.
I think finally Samsh*t thought about locking the launcher, phone app in memory. That makes TW a bit faster. Opening the phone app now is faster and the lag is gone. Also switching to contacts from the phone app is lagless. But there are still some micro lags in launching an app.
Hope that I helped you with that.

Well what's wrong in having choice not everyone have to like the same thing and set up. For people who use very less number of apps I can see this being simple. Even with iPhone or without app drawer you can use one finger swipe down gesture and bring up app search control. I don't see a big deal without app drawer but I would prefer to leave it up to the user to decide if they want or not as a setting.
