How to backup themes and wallpapers that were downloaded from samsung theme store for Galaxy S8 ?
Backing up items purchased from SAMSUNG's Galaxy Store from an unrooted device
I would also be interested in knowing how to back up paid fonts and themes that were acquired from SAMSUNG's Galaxy Store, in order to later reinstall them on a rooted device, when SAMSUNG no longer permits logging into one's account. In other words, the purchased fonts, themes, etc., need to be retrieved from an unrooted device and later be put back after the phone (Note 9 SM-N9600) has been rooted.

Hi!i just made quite a deal with a galaxy tab here in Portugal. Its from the TMN operator and guess what, its filled with crappy apps that i cant remove. So i was wondering what would be the best option here regarding samsung "official" firmwares....I also havent flashed anything yet so i dont really know what all programs are necessary, but ive seen references to a ODIN app. and pit files. So i was wondering if i could get some help from the community. Also the tab suffers from sluggish web browsing and the notifications bar is also sluggish when calling up and down.
regards,
You actually don't need to install a custom firmware; All you have to do is root it (search z4root) and then use a file explorer or adb to remove the apps from the /system/app folder. Backup everything you intend to remove, because you may accidently remove something vital.

Hi guys, was just about to start a similar thread, I bought a tab online from bestbuy expecting delivery on Wednesday, just wanted to know what I ll do when the tab comes.
I have already got my case and screen protector ready.
Number 1 I believe will be root, what apps are recommended to keep and remove etc, I believe there are no custom roms for now...
Also is there Google market available for the tab?
Thanks in advance.
Hi everyone, thanks for this wonderful community.
I recently purchased Samsung's Galaxy Note 3 on Verizon in the USA. Because I used to use the original Galaxy Nexus and was pleased with the "pure google experience" and the Nexus 5 doesn't work on Verizon's network, I rooted my Note 3 and want to learn how to completely backup with Titanium Backup Pro ( I purchased it ) My goal is this, If I decide to gain "pure google experience" by deleting all of the non google apps and then decide to restore it to it's original state, how can I be sure it will be just like I bought it from Verizon? I have been researching this issue as I have successfully rooted my device. ( everything works like it suppose to, Samsung Hub, Verizon Cloud, ect, ect.) Just not sure what or how to back it up. Thanks.
The easiest way to be sure it is completely back to stock when you need it to be would be to use Odin to restore. There are threads about it on here that describe how to use Odin to restore the phone to a completely stock state.

Titanium backup let's you freeze the bloatware you don't want. Then in the future if you find yourself wanting that app you can just defrost the app. It's better than deleting apps because that could lead to other apps malfunctioning. As far as backups in Titanium it's very simple to do.
Also if you are going to install custom roms then install Safestrap 3.65 stable version and make a backup of your stock rom.
It also allows you to run roms on additional rom slots while maintaining your stock rom in a safe slot.
So..i have european F no brand galaxy s5.
I want to freeze with root and titanium backup ALL thr process that work in background and i don't use.both process and bloatware because i want a s5 much faster possible..like a stock android.without change rom and trip knox.so the only way is to freeze/deactive bloatware and process manually in stock rom samsung.
For example..if i don't use air gesture,s finder,easy one hand,ecc can i freeze them?the samsung will be more reactive freezing some features of samsung?
If the answer is yes,i really need to know exactly what i can freeze and what not..and...if i freeze,for exampe,easy one hand,and then activate easy one hand in menu setting ..what's happen?the phone crash?nothing?
I neri a List ok process and bloatware specifically forse s5 900F no brand

A simple search would have found many bloatware lists. Have a look at the list in the top search result. Since it sounds like you aren't willing to root or install a custom ROM you will only be able to freeze a limited number of apps. Refer to the bloat lists.. most non-system apps are safe to remove.
Also do some searches for system optimizing. Turning off system animation, gestures, etc will also make your phone more responsive.

Hello Everyone!
Someone made a gift from China to my girlfriend and it was an Original Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G9006W China Unicom
It dosent appear a way to install ANY GOOGLE Apps, not at all, only it has a Samsung Store that didnt even have Whatsapp, I had to install Whatsapp downloading an apk in the PC, transferring and installing. I did it with Youtube app and Google Play app but none of them work, they open and close instantly, Facebook dont install either
I already tried rooting it and still nothing works...is like this one dont like things by google or facebook :crying:
MY QUESTION: Is there a way to Install another original firmware over the one that it came with?
Please, it would be very apprecieated if you could lead the way
All,
Just received my wife's new Samsung Galaxy S5 today. The phone is on the Sprint network and is a model number SM-G900P. I have not yet activated the phone as I intend to first update it, root it (but stay with the stock ROM), and copy data.
There are lots of good guides for rooting the phone (I have done this previously with previous phones) and for copying apps/user settings.
My question is this: The phone is currently running KitKat 4.4.4. Ideally, the first thing I should do us update the phone to Lollipop 5.1.1, but I have not found a guide for doing this. Can you point me to one? If not, should I simply get the phone working and worry about updating the OS at a later date? Since I have Titanium backup pro, if I need to wipe the phone and reinstall everything, that wouldn't be too painful...
My new phone, a Galaxy S4 Note also arrived today and is also on the Sprint network. I have the exact same questions regarding it.
Thank you.
