Hi.
I just got my TPT. Its a 32gb device with 3G, for my dad.
As its for my dad it should be rock stable so I think I don't need a custom Rom.
But Root. I already rooted the ICS device.
I would like to remove some of the preinstalled apps (bloatware).
Could you tell me which one to remove?
Lenovo App store (its closed) for example.
If I remove something from /system/app how can I get it back?
Is it reinstalled when the TPT is being resetted?
Thanks in Advance
you can just disable the apps, or you can make a CWM backup and then you can try to remove them using titanium backup, or some other app from the playstore.
Also there si a thread arround here about how to stop the TPT form installing all that bloat.

I have had my hero for a few weeks now and have added a few apps I now want have a go at rooting and looking at other roms. Firstly will i lose the apps i have installed when i root it and secondly is there a way to back it up before rooting.
Thanks
You can back up your apps using an app called Titanium Backup (You find it in market - it's a free app). Then just download this app again from your new ROM and recover your apps. Easy peasy!
Don't you need ROOT to use 'Titanium backup' in the first place?
Therefore, this won't work for someone who want to backup apps before they 'root' their device.
I don't know if this works as I haven't tried this myself, but you could try 'Astro File Manager' this has an option to backup apps, doesn't require root and is free in the market.
I was thinking to install your rom and i was on STOCK FROYA 2.2(DDJP2) so can i install it directly and if i do so will i loose the installed apps that i have now cuz i had some nice apps which i din't want to be gone so asking....................like GoChat as if this app goes off then i'll loose all my stored settings that can't be recovered.............
Thank you And all the help appreciated

Which Rom do you want to flash ..?
Regarding apps, root your phone using superoneclick and make a backup using titanium backup from market.. Once you flash the new Rom you can have all your apps and data as they were by restoring the backup..

You can restore all the apps with a single click...

thx to Sboulema!
I have completed my root and the market works. I have been reading posts about twrp and the kindle utility. I was wondering if someone could explain what these are for and also the purpose of titanium back. Should i be installing any of these utilities if everything is working right now?
TWRP is used for flashing custom roms onto your kindle, which would turn it into a full-fledged android tablet.
Titanium Backup backs up your apps, settings, etc incase you ever need to reinstall a rom or the kindle OS so you don't have to redownload everything.
DEFINITELY use Titanium backup. I can't stress that enough.
While we're on this, any other root related apps recommended?

Hello mates, I am new to XDA and first and foremost I want thank to thank all contributors and developers for providing amazing tricks, tutorials, and features for all device users.
I own an S7 Edge under T-Mobile carrier (SM-G935T) and last time I tried to remove bloatware/system apps using Titanium Backup I believe I deleted necessary system apps that I shouldn't have deleted.
So my question for you guys is:
What app should I use or which app is the BEST out there that will help me disable ALL UNNECESSARY BLOATWARE without messing up the phone? I've heard of System App Remover Pro, Titanium Backup... but I don't know if Titanium itself would do the work. (I believe I could if I could get a list of Bloatware that can be removed with no problem)
Thank you guys, any help will be appreciated.
Just Google what each package does and then use titanium to freeze/uninstall them
If it sounds important then it most likely is

Honestly, I'd stay away from something as invasive as Titanium backup these days. If you do use it use the freeze feature (Only paid version).
They way I did it, I simply went into App Manager and disable natively anything that I could. For system Apps that won't allow me to disable that I know I can safely disable without screwing things up (not very many anymore) I use Package Disabler Pro from the Play Store. You can safely enable and disable system Apps.
Best way to get rid of bloat is install the u firmware.

Thread cleaned.

Don't bother uninstalling system app bloats, just freeze with titanium backup. if you screwed up and froze the wrong file you can always unfreeze. Uninstalling won't get you any extra storage since you can't install user apps in the system partition anyways.

Titanium backup is a nice way to go, but you need root.
I have seen Remove ALL Bloatware from any Android Smartphone without Root
ADB for Windows is a nice way to start.
You can google that as well.
I want to remove the bloat myself, but I am wait for 7 to drop then start cleaning house.
Good luck to ya! :good:

Well yes of course, the OP requested best remover for rooted S7E. If not rooted, the recommendation would have been for EZ Package Disabler or equivalent.
