How to use Package Disabler pro with root ? - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi , I want to use package disabler but my phone is rooted , how can I use the app with root ?
I've tried using rootcloak xposed module but it didn't work.
thanks .

use titanium backup instead

I wonder why we are not able to use PDP with rooted device. but it is nicer than titanium backup in the sense that it identifies the bloatwares for us, so we can use their recommended settings.

Newbie Question?

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.

[Q] How to uninstall an original app on Milestone 2?

Need a help in uninstalling apps that I don't need on Moto Milestone 2 (Froyo 2.2)
I mean preinstalled crapware like News, Weather, Social networking etc
The App manager only allows "Force stop", but the "Uninstall" soft buton is not active e.g. it doesn't allow removing an app.
Any ideas? Can I download Titanium backup for this purpose
With titanium backup with root you can "freeze" app, which can help you.
Freeze only "hide" or "disable" selected app, but if you really want and need to delete it, you can also tap un-install in titanium and it will actually delete selected app. It should work on preinstalled bloatware apps also.
Thanks for the info, but what does it mean "Titanium backup with root" ?
It's normal titanium backup available in market, but you are supposed to have root for it
So if you have root, then just install titanium and it will be ok, if you don't have root, then DL SuperOneClick http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682 connect your M2 to computer and root it

New to TPT: Remove bloatware from rooted TPT

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.

Helium backup (available in Play) is very good imo and can be used for restoring apps and data for rooted and not-rooted devices.
Thanks, i found this app in my search but if i understand i can't remove apps, just backup.

You can long press an app so it will be hidden and not installed from backup.
My Backup Pro will do what you want too, you get My Toolbox free with it and you can UNINSTALL apps with the latter.

I used rom toolbox pro and it always failed to backup even the apps said "backup done" but nothing in the backup location also rom toolbox can't
backup the data. I've been avoid this apps since long time ago. Try to fix your titanium, it's the best. Also helium premium is worth to get. As a free one es file explorer has a features to backup but I haven't try it yet.
Hopefully it helps.

Best bloatware remover for a rooted SM-G935T?

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.
