Is there a list of bloatware/apps safe to disable? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I searched the forums but I can't find any thread which compiles some sort of list for the Note 4 so far. Can someone point me to the right thread?

Here you have an "automatic" debloater:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/themes-apps/cwm-bloatware-removal-script-t3067501

The forum is full of those ..
Though freezing/stopping apps first .. then if so you wish uninstall them is the safest way .. I don't recommend auto debloaters at all for the simple facts that devices/Roms differ and devs can't possibly test all of them ..
Key is : stop what you don't use "now" delete what you are sure that you'll never use ..
For privacy reasons all pre installed apps that can be downloaded "should be deleted and installed freshly " especially after rooting and using privacy apps that cloak such as xprivacy ..
Apps that are pre-installed would know everything about your device even if you block their access & permissions later on ..

Hrck mods v1 (Color and stock roms only)

I spent my earlier part of this evening making this with a tool.It's an aroma installer package and for those who don't know what that is it's a mod which gives u an extra GUI in recovery and allows you to pick what mods you want to install.It's limited right now and read all here before messing up your device and coming back to report an error you made.
Disclaimer:I'm not responsible if your phone explodes,shocks you or melts or whatever.Do this at your own risk if there really are any.
The first version of this mod has 3 sections.
-You'll find root apps.Framaroot,root tools and xposed installer.Choose if you want them.
-You'll find nodo camera mod(don't use if you aren't on stock),and the xperia gallery app and more in the app section.Don't install oppogallery2 if your not on the stock rom except you want to try and you know how to revert.
-The clock widget section is a choose one only option to choose between the Oppo green,red,yellow clock widget respectively.Don't choose the 3 or you'll end up with the yellow.I included the order in the title so you don't have to remember.(due to renaming issues I had with the aroma compiler you need to go into /sytem/app and rename any oppodigitalclockwidgetG or r to "OppoDigitalClockWidget.apk")
This is the beginning and I'll add more and keep the package apps updated.
Hit thanks to say thanks and happy flashing.This are all compiled by me so if you share give me credit.Included apps[4.3camera,framaroot,Oppoclock widgets(R,G,Y),nodo-gt camera mod,recoverytools,G.E.sunbeam live wallpaper,xperia walkman,xperia gallery,xperia z ultra launcher,xposed framework]

Trying to enable FULL Multiple User Support on G2 (not to be confused with GuestMode)

Hello everyone, I bring you this topic knowing that our G2s have some sort of crippled multi-user functionality.
But I was used to use the full multi-user support on my Galaxy Note since 4.2.2 (or any other Android with 4.2.2) which differs from LGs by a mile.
LGs implementation is limited to show only the apps you allow without means of changing wallpaper, pulling down the notification shade, etc. Android 4.2.2 can handle more than what LG gave us, like having a totally new and independent full session, including Sync accounts and apps which I found very convenient.
However when I tried the procedure described here it errors out for some reason with a "couldn't create user" error.
But when you get into the System Settings you get to see the new option "Users and Restrictions"
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If you go there you'll see:
If you click Add User:
If you click OK:
Obviously that's because of the error I got inside Terminal. I also disabled LG's Guest Mode in case it had something to do with it but it was a no go.
I'll try some other methods and keep you posted. Any ideas are welcome.
Cheers!
this is neat, @Rayan are you already has the fix?
Nope, unfortunately I have not found a solution yet.
I have tried all methods available but no solution yet.

It looks like you tried to flash a phone.apk or a dialer app that isn't stock. You didn't say what phone version you have (your signature mentions GT-I9505?) This forum is for the I337 variants. My suggestion would be to try and find the same version of firmware / ROM that you are currently using and see if you can get the correct phone.apk or dialer apk out of it and try to restore that way. Depending on you phone model and firmware, you might be able to restore with a nandroid (if you have one). If your bootloader is locked you might need to restore via ODIN and the proper firmware. Most thing you do will run the risk of wiping your data and contacts so back everything up first before you try anything to be on the safe side. If you don't understand the things I mentioned or if you don't know where to find something I suggest you use the forum's search function to find the information and tools you need. Good luck.

see two symbols of battery, you were trying or tried to do for that to happen, and if you can tell the model of your phone, greetings

[Q] Rooting Lenovo A328 | Andriod Version 4.4.2

Hi,
I'm using Lenovo A328 and andriod version 4.4.2.
I've installed app Titanum Backup perhaps to move my apps on internal storage to SD card. The problem was,i can't found the button / function to move process.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I think button/ function to move apps would be somewhere at this area.
When i'm launced the Titanum Backup several prompt that i don't understand.
And if i want to use app Weak Control for example the prompt said like picture below.
I'm using DingDong ROOT ( Ding_Ding_Root_v1.3.5_rus_by_maksnogin ) .. I thought after i "scan my device" those apps like Titanum Backup and Weak Control solved. Unfortunately it won't.
1) I launced DingDont ROOT
2) Rooting process i think
3) Er... what this apps says?
Any ideas how to solve this problem

have you tried superSU as this program advised?
i managed to translate some of the russian text from your pics using google translate, one of them is saying you have to manual reboot for version newer than 4.3
just try translate.google.com as it has a software russian keyboard so you can input exact words
how did you rooted your phone? if not ding-ding method?

[Q] Dr.Ketan Kitkat Rom Display setting crash ?

Anybody can help me here ?

Actually it's been a while im not on Kitkat but have you followed typical procedures? Unfreezing apps, restarting phone, checking your mods, etc. The answer is probably "what you did before you start to get the error". Can you give detailed information about these things? Then Doc may help you if it's a rom based fault.
New flashing rom everything from wipe cache and data other thing not work I used celesiko rom there was no problem
I googled your problem, do you have a chance to back up with titaniumbackup and make a factory reset?
Might be late to the party but I had crash issues after a fresh install.
Seemed to be an issue with how rom is flashed using twrp.
Did you use cwm or twrp?
