[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skander1998:
Wut?

I thought build numbers: Build number ALPS.ICS.MP.V2.6

are for fake devices, how did you flash back to stock with that? and on what rom was it running?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dartzillakofi:
i need help i have d same issue how did u flash back to stock rom
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xSpeced:
Download the right stock rom from Sammobile, flash it as PDA in Odin with everything default. :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dartzillakofi:
i cant get into download mode
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xSpeced:
Hold Home + Vol UP + Power.

If it really doesn't work, it's probably a fake.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, I'm fully rooted and I'm using CWM, I'm Used to to all the flashing mods and so on, but I try and flash a ROM and I'm only getting to the ROMs boot logo, can someone shed some light on this for me
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heat361:
If your flashing from stock clear data/factory reset and clear cache that should work.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KonstantinKeller:
What exactly does this have to do with rooting?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrallen81:
Thanks buddy its working now, really should remember to do a full wipe lol
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heat361:
I think he made a mistake he meant flashing ROMs and stuff lol

He should of had a different title

Yep don't forget and if your going from one ROM to another you don't need to wipe data (most of the time) example from cm 10.1 to aokp unless the dev otherwise state you should
[HTC Droid DNA] theguitarhero94:
Did everything correctly from start to finish, flashed the SuperSU and Busybox package, but still no root access.

Couldn't install binary on SuperSU so I tried superuser... begins to download the update but fails at request for root access.

Please HELP! TWRP installed fine, i've installed the 4.2 camera keyboard and clock through twrp and they all work fine...

Titaniumbackup says it has root, but I guess that isn't right.. lol

fastboot says *TAMPERED* and *UNLOCKED*.

I also apologize if this isn't the right place for this, I can't post in the development thread due to the fact that i have <10 posts
[HTC Droid DNA] cmay227:
You sound rooted, if not you wouldn't have been able to install the 4.2 camera. download superuser and try that. if all is good. then try superSU.

Also reboot your phone and try to install superSU again. but you are rooted.
[HTC Droid DNA] theguitarhero94:
Sorry I meant to include that superuser failed to gain root access in the process of updating. SuperSU won't even update, just goes to installation failed.
[HTC Droid DNA] two_cents:
are you trying to flash the binaries from the SU app? if so you can't do that with S-on you need to Download the Zip from the SU website and flash in recovery... watch one of the videos on root/ custom recovery they explain it in detail

DNA help

i installed what seems to be the first custom rom for the DNA

i unlocked the bootloader w/ htc dev and gained root w/ CWM

im having trouble posting to this thread as im a new user

http://xdaforums.com/show...2014200&page=5

my device is hanging during boot animations at droid eye

how do i push the zip back to to SD card via command prompt if neccesay(if i wipe data)

also, im reluctant to perform factory reset from HTC bootloader menu w/ unlocked bootloader

BTW i did make a backup before rooting and before installing rom, but restore from it using CWM gives MD5 mismatch error

any advice?
[HTC Droid DNA] M@XLOL:
From what I understand if you are flashing the available custom ROM you must wipe system AND format data for it to install successfully. If you are able to get back into recovery just wipe those two and reflash the zip I believe you will be good to go after that.
[HTC Droid DNA] theguitarhero94:
Finally got it to work. Fix was around xda. Had to install superuser and I then disable superuser in SuperSU and now the superuser updates correctly. Super su still asks me to update and fails but I guess I'll just use superuser... Weird also it reboots when the update fails sometimes
[HTC Droid DNA] ilogik:
My problem is that I rooted the phone OK but randomly apps will say that they cannot get root. Like titanium backup will randomly do that, a reboot will usually fix it. Thoughts?
[HTC Droid DNA] geoff5093:
I found that manually launching Superuser, then launching TiBu worked when TiBu wouldn't get root.
[HTC Droid DNA] theguitarhero94:
md5 mismatch is because the backup is unrooted...
[HTC Droid DNA] Deuces:
no... md5 mismatch is because the backup probably failed and the device rebooted before it completed. this is a known issue with both twrp and cwm recoveries on HTC DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] theguitarhero94:
gotcha, he didn't say anything about it not finishing, and I had the same issue a while back on my incredible and the backups definitely were completed... so i'm not really sure

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laehtis:
Yeah, most likely same phone.

However, to be sure, go to settings->about device. There it will display the phone model.

Also, when starting the phone, it should display the model name.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lavoslav:
GT-i9000 and SGH-i9000 are the same, but name in use is GT-i9000 or just i9000. SGH was used previously in older models which mostly didnt support android. But it can vary in other countries. But both names are applies to exactly same phone, so they are same

Thank you... Hopefully this can get a sticky and serve as the main reference. :thumbup:
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SturmenE36:
This list is great, thank you!

One pretty glaring caveat though...the "entitlement" process is needed for turning on the hotspot. When you don't have this process, the phone can't dial back to verizon to get auth to use the hotspot service and nothing happens when you try to check the "Mobile Hotspot" box in settings.

I'm running the OTA 4.1.1 that just came out ( 9.1.41.XT926.Verizon.en.US if you're coming to this thread from THE FUTURE).

I figured this out by doing a binary search of your list (freeze half, check the hotspot, then search the subset, etc.) however, when I originally followed your list I didnt take *all* the processes, so there is the slight possibility that there is another process that one would need in order to get the hotspot running.

I also did a reboot and tried a bunch of other functionality as a bit of a smoke-test, but I think this thread is a fantastic start to a really solid list. Would you mind editing the above list with a caveat, such as:

Thanks again!

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djousma:
Another little nit-pick. Maybe change your subject to change from "remove" to hide? If some root newbies find this post and use TB to actually delete these apps, they will be stuck at the next upgrade.

As for the list, in my opinion only many of what you have listed is possibly "overkill". I'm all for getting rid of the blatant stuff like:

- amazon suite

- imdb

- mc3

- NFL mobile

- real racing

- zappos, etc

But many of the things in your list are service provider apps supporting other fuctions, and are not even actively running if not using those fuctions. Its not like we are hurting for memory, and none of those show up in the top 10 battery users or data users. Many of those wont even cleanup your app drawer.

Again, only my opinion.

Updated to reflect the Entitlement issue. I don't have a VZW phone, so I didn't know about this.

I am trying for a stock experience, so I was kind of comparing my Nexus vs. Razr HD -- if you don't like it you don't have to remove it! :)

Oops! I didn't realise I had "Text messaging" listed, since I use CyanogenMod's messaging app. I've since updated the list to reflect this.

Anyone know what the Verizon App store (Apps 3.08.12 (com.gravitymobile.app.hornbill)) is titled in root explorer? It's not under either of those names. I freeze all bloatware using root explorer, but this is the only app I can't seem to find and, of course, it can't be disabled through the system app management.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Binkster75:
I'm really a noob to this stuff. Can I accomplish this but disabling if I am stock or do I need to be rooted?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumomuscle:
You can disable a lot of apps while stock, just use the built in app manager (settings>apps>swipe to the right for all apps) and click on the app you want to disable. Some apps may not allow you to disable this way and in that case, you need to be rooted.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwanamarko:
I can't uninstall com.zappos.android with Titanium or adb

Thanks for the list. I am having trouble removing some bloatware. I have root permissions via the windows razr hd utility 1.10 by @mattlgroff using motofail2go exploit by @djrbliss. I've checked for root permissions in adb (e.g. su and I get # prompt) and using root checker. Everything went stellar. But there is something weird going on with some of the bloatware; I was only able to remove some of the bloatware using Titanium (or pm uninstall in adb shell).

I was able to remove these apps using Titanium:

Audible 1.3.9 Market (com.audible.application)

NFL Mobile 5.9 (com.mobitv.client.nfl2010)

Real Racing 2 000485 (com.ea.game.realracing2_smartdemo)

actually, real racing left something (perhaps an update) and I was able to uninstall it using Apps in Settings

But I can't uninstall (but I can Disable from Apps in Settings) these apps either using Titanium or `adb shell`, `su`, `pm uninstall com.app.name`:

Zappos 2.5.1 (com.zappos.android)

MC3 1.0.4 (com.gameloft.android.VZW.GloftM3TB.launcher)

Titanium says they are uninstalled but they always reappear. They are listed in `/data/data`, and in `/vendor/apps` as

Amazon_zappos.apk

ModernCombat.apk

when I try package manager from adb shell I always get "Failure"

Should I just delete their apk's and their /data/data folders?

Also is it okay to remote SlackerRadio.apk from `/system/app` - it's 3MB. I'm not too worried about OTA updates (to 4.1.2 or 4.2) - do you really think that removing some games would block that? Couldn't I go all the way back to ICS and back up (same as I did to root)?

Thanks for your feedback! I'm so happy to be tweaking my phone - kind of can't wait for cm10 to come our way.

City ID

Email (I use Gmail app)

Google+ (I haven't drunk the Kool Aid yet)

How-to Videos

Slacker Radio

ZumoCast

I'm using Android Tuner, so I have the option to Crystallize some apps - keep them from running in the background (not sure if other managers do this, but I would assume so). Going to see how this works:

Amazon Kindle

Facebook

Google Play Music (don't actually use, but in case I do...)

Media Storage - This process routinely kills my battery after taking some photos / whenever it wants to re-catalog. Seen lots of 'solutions', none of which have worked, so maybe this will do it without killing functionality if I need it.

com.motorola.android.motovzwlocationservice

I froze com.motorola.android.motovzwlocationservice and messed around without having it for a day or so and decided I didn't want it so I removed it. Of course the next day I realized that my maps didn't have my precise location anymore. I have the Droid Razr Maxx XT912 with Android JB 4.1.2. I've removed almost everything else with great success.

Great List, pretty helpful

Awesome list, thank you for putting this together. I have a VZW Droid4, and it is so close to the RAZR software-wize basically everything applies. Some of these services I actualy use, like the desktop/alarm clock UI and dock, but quite a few of these I was unsure about but have been iching to freeze (like entitlement/ hotspot, and Motocare)! Thank you for taking the time to do this.

Old post, sorry for any revival (zombie undead thread?), new info.

Here is the list of stuff that I've finally frozen/disabled (either in the stock rooted OTA JB, or by TiBu), note that this is for an XT912 (so this stock version is 98.72.165.xt912) but I didn't see a list like that in its section here:

- AcousticWarning

- Amazon Kindle

- com.andoird.providers.partnerbookmarks

- Email

- Facebook

- Google+

- Help Center

- How-To Videos

- ils

- Moto Chinese Input

- Moto &% (Japanese or Korean or ...)

- MotoCare

- MotoCareInt

- Motorola Dock Helper Service

- Motorole Dock Service

- Rescue Security

- Setup Wizard

- Slacker Radio

- Talk

- TalkBack

- Vehicle Mode

- Video Calling

- VZ Navigator

Note that Kindle, Google+, and Slacker Radio have been disabled for years on this device, and I deleted the NFL-Madden, Let's Golf game, etc a long time ago too. I just went and ransacked the rest on the above list just now due to recent sluggish performance and hang-ups/freezes. Between that and deleting a few thousand text messages, it seems to be running like new.

[Nokia Lumia 920] juanfpo96:
We thought that Nokia Lumia 920 was the best phone to record in the night, or Nokia told us that it was that. But they haven't done the best work they could. Their flagship, Nokia 808 Pureview, is recording better during the night. It's a pitty that Nokia starts to cheat since the very first Nokia 920 video. The super reflex camera to capture the supose Lumia 920 videos + this is amazing. Although is the best WP8 to buy, if you think it as a camera phone is better the iPhone 5 in daylight, equal in afternoon and inside and slightly better during the night.

[Nokia Lumia 920] PierreHenriK:
The Nokia video you are talking about was misunderstood and the blown out of proportion. The goal of the video was to demonstrate the benefit of the Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) technology, not the phone itself. If anything, Nokia can be chastised for not putting a disclaimer making that unambiguous.

It is indeed tricky to compare the 920 with the 808 esp since they are both called "Pureview". But, the key difference between the two is that the 920 has OIS (which the 808 doesn't) and the 808 have a much higher MP.
[Nokia Lumia 920] stylinred:
I dont think anyone ever claimed that the 920 was a better camera than the 808... you'd have to be crazy to think so

it does take low light pics easier than the 808 but if you had rock solid steady hands or a mini tripod you could mitigate the advantage

as for the "fiasco" i agree i was a bit appalled that nokia stooped to competitor strategies but they did come out with actual footage from the 920 which showcased the OIS just as well and so have users (check out some nokia blogs)
[Nokia Lumia 920] juanfpo96:
I think you are mistaken. Nokia did show us the Lumia 920 as the best camera in low light conditions on a phone. That is not true and I think this reviews are good because maybe you know 808 is better camera in all ways, but some people are interested and doesn't know it.
