[Q] how to disable apps on cm7.2 - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
i have downgraded from CM10 to CM7.2
in CM10 i had the option to disable apps, such as the apollo music player and default browser.
i wish to disable the default music player and default browser because i am using other programs and i don't want to have problems. (espescially on the music players section, had issues in the past).
but i can't seem to have the disabling option as it was on CM10
how can i disable these apps on CM7.2
thanks
alon

You can do that with app: RomToolBox: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox&hl=en

Try Titanium Backup - you can deinstall systemapps

New Music/Clock/Camera/Gallery Apps

Anyone know of they work on the Nexus One? I'm downloading them now.
Camera installed and works but missing the shutter button graphics. Meh
Music App works great.
Desk Clock fails to install. Could be a permission thing.
Gallery 3D FCs when trying to launch.
Cube Livewallpaper works but FC's when opening the settings
I just tried the new Music app this morning. It works. They have official signatures too so it works even on unrooted phones.
The music app seems nice, though it also seems a bit sluggish to me. It will take a few days to know if some of the Music apps annoying bugs have been fixed yet.
I haven't tried the other apps yet, maybe later today. I'm curious what has been changed.
camera nd music work fine (though you will replace the camera app entirely and the prog is a bit crippled regarding options)
gallery-app does not work for me (force closes)
Music works fine, but still has not implemented Gapless Playback and Album Artist classification.
It won't install for me. It just says "Application not installed".
????
is there a way to install these on an unrooted phone without overwriting the original system apps?
Just install as normal. You can't overwrite a system app.
Any remarkable improvement in the new camera app?
I can't find the “Recent” section with album previews and a scrolling wheel feel? Can you guys tell me how to get to it?
Thanks.
Are any of y'all running unrooted stock gingerbread 2.3.3 on your phones? I am and I can only get the gallery to install and it just force closes
This is unrelated but I tried the leaked skype w/ video app from droid-life.com and it wouldn't install either.

Im running stock gingerbread and the music player downloaded and is working just fine. Didn't try the other apps because reading the comments from other users they all had the same result as you.

Thanks for the feedback.
I tried re-installing the gingerbread update and installing the app again but I just got the same results. I had rooted my phone using SuperOneClick when it had Froyo because of internal space issues but when I updated it to Gingerbread there was really no need. It is my understanding the phone becomes unrooted after you install the update right?
I am unrooted 2.3.3, and as I said earlier, the music player won't install. I just get "Application not installed".
Is that what other people are getting?

I got the same error. My problem was that I had the updated music player (Gold Speaker Music App). I went ahead and reflashed the gapps, Giving me the old music app (Blue Speaker Music App), now the the music app installs just fine.
Note this will not replace the Blue Speaker Music App.
After the Leaked Music App was installed, I do not have the Music Sync option in the my Google sync settings that came with the Gold Speaker Music App. I have tried to update to the Gold Speaker Music App after I got the leaked music app working however the Gold Speaker Music App replaced both music apps.
Thought I would add: I was doing this in hopes that I would get the Jumper and the Sync option with the new Leaked Music App, just in case Syncing would start working. Maybe this is the key to get the Google Music Sync to work again and I hope someone smarter than me can figure this out.
Ah, a great thing about the new music player (just installed with no problem on my unrooted N1) is that it works with Voice Search's "Listen To..." option, where the old Froyo one doesn't. Very sweet. "Listen to Paranoid" brought the song right up, and it starts playing, no need to hit any keys. Will be great in the car.
Also seemed to grab an existing playlist I made on my phone using PowerAmp, which also makes me very very happy.

[Q] replacing music app

hi guys im using onecosmicsICS port rc3 at the moment, ive noticed there is a RC4 available, but it uses AOSP music instead of google music, (RC3 used google music), i was wondering if anyone could give me a detailed 'idiots guide' to completely removing AOSP music player and then replacing it with google music player, so that only google music player would appear in the app drawer.
thanks in advance
Hi
I have just installed rc4. I will check and report back

I had the same concern after flashing my phone ICSSGS RC4.2, I liked the Google Music Player more than the AOSP Music. Well this is what I did to get it back. First I cleared the cache of the AOSP Music in the RC4.2 then I clicked on Disable, You might get a warning pop-up you can ignore it. Then I Googled for ICS Music player and found a link then downloaded the apk file and installed it. I felt really happy to get the Google Music back but I had few issues with it. The player was too laggy and it took ages to load the Album Arts. So I uninstalled it and installed Market Enabler from the market and selected the country as USA AT&T. Then I opened the Market and Searched for Google Music, then I installed it from the Market. This version works flawlessly and it is the same as what was in the RC3.1. If you are in US or any other country which already has Google Music support then there is no need for you to install the Market Enabler. Just try searching for Google Music in Market first. Cheers...!!!
You should easily be able to replace the music player by doing the following:
Get Root Explorer from the Market.
When installed, open it and go there where the new music.apk is
(long press it and chose either copy or move)
Now scroll up to the top and chose "previous folder" until you're in the first possible.
Look for folder system and open it.
Look for folder app and open it.
First of all hit the button "Mount R/W" on top so that you can delete or add files in this folder.
Scroll down til you found the old music.apk, long press it and delete it.
Now just hit the "insert" button on the bottom and it'll put the new music.apk which you chose "copy or move" before into the app folder.
Restart your phone for the new apk to be shown in app drawer.
Just one more thing. In system/app don't delete or edit any other files than music.apk or else may your phone doesn't work right anymore

Replace stock launcher apps

I don't like and don't use the stock music, video and web apps on the KF. I would instead like to (let's say) replace the stock music shortcut with the android music player, the stock video shortcut with Youtube, and the web launcher with Dolphin.
Is this possible somehow? I have uninstalled the 3 mentioned apps using TB, but obviously when I go to the links in the launcher it says that the app is not found and doesn't let me choose an alternate app.
Anyway I can achieve this? I am running MoDaCo.

Default App Actions under ICS

I am running the lightspeed ics rom.
I have removed the standard browser and music player. I use Dolphin HD and PowerAmp.
Dolphin launches correctly for URLs, however I have BT keyboard that has shortcut keys. I can't get dolphin to launch for the browser button or poweramp for the music button.
I reinstall the base music player and browser, they launch from the buttons just fine.
Any ideas on where that relationship data is stored or how to change?
Neither the stock browser or music player show any default actions under Manage Apps.
This is just a shot in the dark (haven't actually tried this myself) but try putting the apk's in system/app as Music.apk and Browser.apk respectively. Remember to set the permissions, reboot to recovery and clear cache + dalvik, and try your hotkeys again. No guarantees though. Might be worth doing a nand backup first.
Tried creating a symbolic link with the name Browser.apk. No go.
Tried copying the dolphin apk into /system/app and renaming and fixing permissions. No go.
Any other ideas?
I opened up the launcher (I use Nova) apk and it looks like the the action for the various shortcut buttons are hard coded in the default_workspace.xml. I may play around and see if I can modify that to use different methods.
