How exactly do I remove all of this bs from my phone? After I root it of course.
I want to buy a Galaxy Tab and root (I've rooted many other tabs) - how hard is it to remove carrier bloatware using Root Explorer or Titanium Backup.
Any advice that more experienced members can give will be helpful.
So, today I rooted my note using Zerg-rush exploit and got the My Backup app.
So, my question is, can someone provide me with a list of apps/services that I can safely freeze with no adverse effect on functionality?
( Maybe I'll compile a list of all such apps/services that you guys mention, so that other n00bs like me can benefit from it.)
Thanks in advance.
You can use Root App Remover. It can freeze and delete stock applications. The ones with red text (contacts, settings etc.) can't be removed, so it's pretty safe to use it if you know what you're doing. Do not delete random stuff just because you can. If you for example want to remove the stock keyboard remember to have another keyboard installed.
But it's totaly safe to freeze/delete the third party Samsung/carrier apps, but again be careful.
Or maybe it is easier to ask what can't I delete.
Obviously, a lot of the AT&T and Samsung bloatware is easily identifiable, but there are still a lot of programs listed in Titanium Backup that are hard to discern their specific function.
Who amoung us can identify those that can be frozen or deleted or in the alternative those that can't be frozen or deleted without causing a problem?
I don't wanna put a custom rom on my phone so I was wondering which system apps are safe to remove.
