I love Gingerbread on the Pro, and love having it rooted (kudos to P3), but have noticed that its a little trickier to freeze unwanted apps (via Titanium Backup) without stumbling upon system conflicts.
Note - I use Launcher Pro Plus for my launcher app. I also use Handcent for SMS and K9 for all my email (4 gmail/google apps accounts); no MS Exchange
Thus far, the things I have successfully frozen:

CityID
Email
Email Authenticator

Home screen tips
LastFM
Messaging
My Verizon Mobile
Myspace
New & Weather

Skyrock Authenticator
Social Messaging

Yes - rooted GB via Team Black Hat
in my experience, freezing the authenticators seems to cause my motorola contacts to force close; e.g. I can't open any contacts. Not sure if skyrock messes anything up but probably check just in case

Agree. I have gone through several iterations arriving at the list that results with no force closes. So far, so good.
I've frozen DLNA as well, but it still seems to show up on my watchdog so I had to rename the apk to get rid of it.

As far as I know, there are 2 apps for DLNA. The first has the obvious name of DLNA but there is a second one where it has a different name but has "dlna" in the service name. Found using SystemApkManager
great list!
I followed this list and everything went great (but I did not freeze anything, I just cut & paste all apps on my SD card), except I lost my Messaging application (duh!) So I put the messaging APK back in the system/app folder and restarted, but the Messaging app still doesn't show in the app drawer. Any ideas? Am I supposed to "ADB Push" it?
Help Anyone?
Update: So I was trying to flash the TBH Gingerbread files via recovery & the flashing was aborted! But when I rebooted I found that my Messaging app has been restored Talk about lucky.

Help！How to ROOT the droid pro
Kudos for the list, and GB on Pro
I too am an avid Gingerbread Boy on Droid Pro. I had a Pro for almost 3 years, running v 2.3.4 (OTA updates from Froyo to GB 2.3.3, then OTW to 2.3.4), but never realized I couldn't root on 2.3.4 so I found a blog by Sarat Marudhuri, "Rooting For Dummies," and was all set to begin following his steps, including flashing back to 2.3.3.
This past Saturday, after a week of thinking my battery was becoming toasted as I couldn't maintain a good 3G signal and the battery kept wearing out in no time because when 3G returned and the Bloatwares all got happy and started up again, I was still avidly pursuing root. Sunday Page Plus had a major server shutdown, both web and phones, and my broker, Prepaid Online, told me all about it, and asked that I keep trying. At 20 minutes before 9 (central), I managed to score on the call in, and hit the "hold circle" with muzak for about 39 minutes, then got a recording stating the office hours, and the office was closed, so try tomorrow. A buddy of mine is manager of a corporate store, and had a Pro that someone had traded in, so he gave it to me. To my surprise, it was pristine in condition, and was still on 2.3.3! Now this evening, I've spent the past 5 hours working through Sarat's blog and yes, I am now officially "ROOTED" although I'm going to stick with the current version and avoid 2.3.4. I used his list to freeze at that Verizon Bloatware, and confirmed his list with your's!
Hats off to XDA-developers for giving us such a great resource to streamline our Android phones!
anybody knows what's this?
everytime when updating or installing an app from playstore after finsh installing or updating an half bottom screen window appears with some apps adverts and at bottom 2 buttons for close or cancel.
is this some kind of virus or this is latest advertisment mode from google play?
i'm on note 3 9005 kk rooted stock
You're using Go SMS Pro, aren't you? It's a common complaint by Go SMS Pro users since its latest update, its Google Play reviews are full of it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jb.gosms&hl=en
Uninstalling Go SMS Pro will remove this ad-ware.
@ShadowLea thx man you're right that i have go sms pro, i've used this app by very long time and now they give me nasty adverts....i think to uninstall...
anyway thanked to you for quick response :good:
after many complaints, go sms dev team announced today that they removed intrusive adverts and send many apollogies to fans, so i've updated today to last version and everything is good
Hello all,
Totally new to Android, got the GS7 Edge 2 mo ago. In the past few weeks, I've had some crashes and resets. I think they've occurred when I've hit the Recents capacitive key. (Not rooted, just updated to the most recent 7/27/16 AT&T s/w update; only apps from the Google Store)
What's bugging me is that I can't seem to find a crash log app that I could use to see what was running when the resets occurred. I know I had an app on the iphone that would allow it: can anyone suggest similar for Android? (please note I'm slightly savvy, but I'm not a programmer or developer)
Thank you!
anyone?
anyone with any suggestions?
So I restarted my rooted S7 Edge earlier (no big deal right) and upon unlocking the device after restart I started getting spammy popups alerting me that Health Services have stopped, and an option to Close app or send feedback. Neither option really did anything. So I finally managed to disable Samsung Health with these spammy popups appearing like 5/sec. Now I don't get quite as many spammy popups but now one appears for chrome and Bluetooth, which means chrome and Bluetooth are unusable. Anyone have any idea what is going on? I can't find anything on the interwebs about this problem. I didn't install anything new or change anything recently so I'm really confused.
Edit: It seems as time goes on more stuff is starting to stop. Now I'm getting Nearby Services and other apps that are closing.

Hi, I've been using POCO M3 for about a month now, and lately, I've been dealing with pop-up ads and invisible ads that throw me into a browser or play store. They're not in-app ads, it's frustrating since it pops out of nowhere, whether I use the phone (typing message in whatsapp) or in an idle state (screen on).
Please help!

You might need to reset the phone to factory settings.
But firstly go into the browser settings and see what you can delete like cookies, browsing records, anything you can delete.
I only use Samsung Internet Browser with Adblock Plus and I believe it's the best solution after many years of trying anything.
