(Q)Verizon bloatware - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know which of the Verizon built in bloatware can be removed with Titanium without messing up how the phone runs? I thought I read somewhere that removing certain ones can mess up your phone.
I know I could flash a ROM but nothing is really sticking out at the moment.Currently just rooted on stock. Thanks!

You should try either CleanROM or Digital Dream. Both ROMs are basically stock, but with the bloat ware removed.

New evo owner.

Ok. I am coming from the epic 4g. I ended up getting a evo to replace it. It's already running 2.2. What do I need to root it?
Sorry I failed to see the q and a section. Epic fail.

Ok thank you for the info. I am used to the epic and there is really only
One way to root.
On the evo I am seeing alot of different ways.
Seems I need to figure out which hardware version I have. Right now I don't have a pc and from what I am seeing is that since im already running 2.2 I can't root without a pc.

It was flimsy. I don't need the keyboard. The battery life sucked. The radio always was spotty. It was a decent phone but I feel the evo is better.

Don't use clockwork use amon_ra for recovery. Clockwork does not back up the 4g keys and it has some issues with wiping.

I think you should be fine. That's what 4g does if you're not in the coverage area. I've used and flashed with both Amon and Clockwork, never had issues with either. There was a version of Unrevoked early in the Evo's lifetime that borked people's 4g radios, but I don't recall any other instances that caused problems

I'm relatively sure it fixes the ShiftySonOfA exploit. I can no longer root my device with that method.
So no point installing it? I can live with that.

id just avoid it like the plague, the odds of a developer bothering to work on an exploit if it does close the hole is slim to none nowadays since most of the devs have moved on to better phones by now

I think if anyone would fix the exploit it would just be to test there skills. and say that they did.
Avoid Sprint Official Updates like the plague . Never take an Update form Sprint till your sure what it is. It's one sure fire way to get yourself into ISH.

I didnt do anything to the ota other than cook it up Stock odex. I could deodex it and post that too so its easier for people to get in there and do mods though. Its all what you all want. But a debloated bone stock optimized rom dont sound halfway bad. Even though you guys have ICS and all that good stuff, some users do like Stock optimized ( no tweaks and minor changes ) so.....................

While this app is really good, I actually do think flashable themes are the most fun. If I could ever figure out how the heck to make themes, I would pump a bunch out. Lol. I usually get as far as decompile apk and then I say "well now what?"

I can confirm that this is working on a clean install using ForceRom for Sprint. No need to port.

Nice! That's great to hear. The only think I'd be cautious about is when the dev makes more updates to framework, which could cause some compatibility issues down the road on future versions.
No FC's so far but I will let you all know if I hit any issues since I am just now starting to mess with all the settings. So far changing up colors for battery, clock, and toggles have been working just fine.
Yeah, shouldn't have to port it. It's just: SystemUI.apk & threeminitsettings.apk.
Funny thing is framework-res.apk isn't included in an app called "3 Minute Framework". Lol

Do you have any other mods installed? For example, if you have any of the transparent or ICS status bar mods, flast the "back to stock" zip before flashing 3minit.

Search in the development section. There is a flashable zip for LG split window and it works great on the stock or stock based rom. I can't seem to get it to work on CM11.

[Q] Suggestions?

Okay, considering the G3 rom is causing my G2 problems i need help choosing a new rom! It needs to be reliable, fast and battery friendly. not too fussed about customizing, just something smooth. Thanks!
-edit- Had enough of stock android, Looking for an LG based rom. Thanks.

i was on cloudyG3 for a day or two and i noticed it being quite slow, and facebook messenger kept crashing on calls. OptimusG3 has been really good just i charge the phone twice a day, sometimes even 3 times and it gets really hot

Yeah, I really hope LG considers us G2 users, and push out the update for us to get the G3 UI and the features(minus the laser auto focus, because the G2 doesn't have that hardware) that came with the G3.[emoji4]
It would be wrong on their part if they don't push out this update to us, The LG G2 hasn't even been out for a year yet.

lets hope its this year, the next update on the G2 will be Android L so maybe LG changes the UI yet again slightly due to the notification centre being different on L :laugh:
