...

Thank you very much for providing these two scripts, avirk ! :good:

Would you, please, explain what is the difference between them ?

As far as I understand , the second does a deeper cleaning - from an XWMS1 NeatROM Lite v5.3.1 you would get an ExtraLite ?

Thanks again!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Chris you know the drill. :) And thanks man be with me here.

Thanks mate, if you mean by posts then i think 2 are enough atm and in case I'll need more then I'll link them in OP. But I don't think I gonna need that. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Yes mate second will clean more apps and libs. You can compare yourself from providing aop list. NP mate.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MyLifeRocks10:
Like reserving post for future use did u reserve threads too??:p:p I think one thread should be sufficient for the script.;):p

Anyway here's some files u might want to add to the script:

libChatOnAMSImageFilterLibs.so -> lib file for ChatOn

libchromeview.so -> lib file for Chrome Browser(may or not be present)

libsamsungtts.so -> lib file for Samsung TTS

libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so -> lib file for Google Now

libvideochat_jni.so -> lib file for Hangouts

2 videos in /system/media/video folder

/system/vendor/pittpatt -> Required for Face Lock
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Great to see you here mate, and thanks for more apps.

i did remove some apps myself ...does that conflict with the script?

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9100 mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Christian Nothing:
nope , you can still flash it , as in this script are typed the name of the apk+his location , and if he didn't find that apk he moves further to the next apks ;)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] luvmyXray:
works like a charm

thanks 4 the script avirk.., save me time to remove those apps
[Galaxy S II Android Development] -ix-:
Looks great!

Two questions.

1. What does it mean that an app is only removed from preload? Can I manually start it somehow?

2. If I want to keep a specific app, say S planner. Can I remove it from the script somehow?

Thanks a lot for your hard work!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
1: Yeah you can do it manually but time consuming as you have to select them manually from preload as well as from Syatem/app folder using any root explorer with root privilege.

2: Open the zip go to MetaInF folder under there open the "updater-script" using notepad++. Search for spalnner line it will appear two time delete them and save the script and you done.

[MENTION=4910390]avirk[/MENTION]

It's rude to ask over again but in order to help me decide which are the apps to exclude from the script (I prefer second one) do you have name list for those preload apk names...

NEVER bother to type it for me just in case you have it somewhere ready.... the apk preload names are sometimes hard to identify real app name from TB.

My bad if I am squeezing my friend :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
just tell me the apps you want to keep and which you want to remove I'll provide the script according to your need mate, If you ask me what apps you should have to keep I'll say none of them I have on my mobile as I'm a simple user not a businessman or superuser.

NP mate we are here to help each other in some way.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] insaf_mohd:
Hi Avirk,

Let me help myself a bit :p

Please see the attached and those marked I wanted to keep...so I used the Winrar and Notepad ++ steps to remove relevant lines for those.

BTW the ClipboardSaveService.apk is needed for copy pasting data from web etc to other apps right?? This is where actual app names would help :)

If I am losing anything needed other than this, i'll seek your comments :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Every single line will appear two time in script mate. One for prleoad and other one for sytem/app. Go ahead edit save and enjoy the script.

About clipboard.apk I don't think as I can copy paste from web very easily without any trouble. But if you want to keep it np in that.

Very good avirk, It deleted all those frozen bloats (junk) I had in the past .....plus I took a nandroid with preload in case I need later :fingers-crossed:

Great Job and very handy too, one that I want to keep :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] insaf_mohd:
Hope you are polishing the script further avirk :laugh: adding more bloats and junks to auto-purge.

This was truly helpful.

Nice one m8. I'll like to have my VPN working and chrome bookmark sync with default browser, what are the associated files to keep?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
For vpn see the app named Vpndialogs.apk

And for internet bookmark see the app ChromeBookmarkSyncAdapter.apk something like that. However I didn't removed this apk by script cause I saw a lots of people use it so don't worry.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
No problem you can. However there is option to install the Extralite ROM in aroma provided by [MENTION=3690986]_Sale_[/MENTION]. There will be nothing wrong if you want to uninstall the apps I listed in OP.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
Nice one Sir [MENTION=4910390]avirk[/MENTION]...just flash this mod and works fine...no problem ATM...my question is how can I revert back those apps that I need like accuweather, fmradio etc?....aside from deleting those items in your script lines before running...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Go to this path Metainf/com/google/android.

And delete the things in updater-script as shown in the s.s

For e.g am taking accuweather
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
Yes I know Sir [MENTION=649767]cfi[/MENTION] about this upon reading the thread...what I mean is aside from deleting those 2lines for each apps from the script, is there other way to revert back those deleted apps? Coz right now all apps listed in the OP has been deleted...Maybe the only solution is to download those apks again or reflash the rom...:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Open the ROM zip and pull out the those apk's you want back and then download this flashable zip http://d-h.st/zCO from my dev host. Now delete the apk under preload/symlink/system/app and push the apk's you want back, close the zip flash in recovery and you would get your all apps which you want and had put in that zip.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
Thank you so much again Sir [MENTION=4910390]avirk[/MENTION] for sharing this method...I will try this later on my PC...

Another noob question here...

Based from the title of this thread, your script will have same result when I choose extralite upon installing NeatRom from its Aroma?...

But I guess there will be bugs if I choose extralite in NeatRom Aroma, that's why you made these scripts to avoid any bugs...

Also, your suggested solution above will have same result if I reflash NeatRom Aroma without wipe then I will just tick those apps that I need?...

Please correct me if am wrong Sir...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
I made these scripts to avoid the update my extralite rom thread mate, and there are very less chance of bugs with aroma installer.

Yes if you choose extralite and choose manually what apps you need they will be available but in that way you will loose any mod install on your device along with settings. In this way only those apps will install without changing anything.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
Oh yes, there you go that's the Big difference. I forgot that all mods will be gone after dirty flash of Rom without wipe...

Your script really help me a lot Sir [MENTION=4910390]avirk[/MENTION]...Big thanks to you Sir...:victory:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drananda:
Hi m8,

since you suggest me this script, I have 2 questions:

1. I want to keep some apps from the list, so will

- BluetoothAvrcp.apk, BluetoothMap.apk, BluetoothTest.apk if removed mess with the bluetooth transfer?

- if I remove Dropbox.apk from the list, should I also remove DropboxOOBE.apk?

- GMS_Maps.apk is Google Maps? Also, is GmsCore.apk associated with Google Maps?

- SecMemo.apk is Memo? I dont use widgets, so I wont need that app listed

- SPlannerAppWidget.apk is just a widget or an app with widget?

- Street.apk is Google Street View?

2. When new ROM version is installed, should I again do this (use the script) or does it stay active?

THX a lot, m8 :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
Read comment above or few pages back about apps you want no to be deleted.

Rest try to google or wait for the others to answer :cool:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Pm me the apps name you want to keep and I'll upload the edited script for you.

Yes your bluetooth transfer will work without any issue.

Yes that is also a bloatware we don't need just install the Dropbox from playstore.

yes that is Map apk and that is nothing to do with that apk and you can get maps from playstore as user apps.

Yes that is memo.

Yes, also available from playstore.

Yes when new rom version will be flash(if its lite) then you need to run the script again otherwise no need if you choose extralite.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
Sir [MENTION=4910390]avirk[/MENTION], just wanna share this post by Sir [MENTION=5022494]corruptionfreeindia[/MENTION].

Spreadsheet attachment shows little information about apps installed in Roms.

It also states there whether apps are safe to remove or not.

I've been comparing those listed apps that will be remove from your scripts and the spreadsheet.

And I found out some apks are not to safe to be removed.

If you have time, can you check it also?

It might help/add info to you to revise your script (if needed only).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Buddy I have read that spreadsheet a long time ago, I know they have stated some apps not to remove, I did them personally on my phone first and tested if they cause anything to worst or bug but nothing has lead me in wrong direction yet mate. So believe me they are safe too, but if you need some more function to work like wifi direct then you need three apk's which will let you do it and from that everything needs different way, a lots of download of script and since then only one request to use the wifi direct yet. So i don't think I need to update the script but sure I'll provide it on user basis if he wish to keep some apps out of the script. :)

And please don't use that Sir word before my name I don't deserve it, I'm a noob and newbie than you buddy just treat me like other fellas. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hilmesh:
Hello [MENTION=3985156]avrik[/MENTION],

I just tried editing the updater script to my specific need and tried to flash from recovery. It gave me errros status 6 and did not flash. something i did wrong???

i just took the updater script and edited using wordpad and then pushed it into the zip back. is it correct??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Status 6 error is due to some syntax error.

Make sure " " is there or you might have forget to put ".

Check your updater script.

Edit: hilmesh..

I remember u..hope you r fine:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Buddy it seems you changed the encoding of the script using wordpad, I'll recommend to download the zip again open the updater script in notepad++ and edit it and then save it. Use it and report back, or pm me the apps you want to keep and I'll upload the new script for you asap.

Remember you have to delete two lines for an apk because they symlink from the preload folder to system/app folder.

And buddy correct the spelling of my username ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hilmesh:
Hmm. I thought so. I checked again but all looks ok. All i am doing in the script is as follow,

1) opened it with Wordpad & word. Should i use something else???

2) removed 3+3 entries for all share

3) added 1+1 entry for Seclauncher2.apk

Also i am doing a copy and paste of the lines and just editing the apk name. Still i will continue to check now.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Use notepad+++ ..it will be very comfortable.

And double check the line u have added.

Compare it with the above line.

Am sure its syntax error.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hilmesh:
Yes [MENTION=649767]cfi[/MENTION] i am fine. Although i am trying and following the threads could not post much as had lots of issues in the last 3 months (medical emergency, etc). now finally things seem to have settled down so trying to come back.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Oh fine fine .

Take care buddy.:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
I recommend to use Notepad++, if still you have problem just upload your script here and I'll check it for you have very limited time. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hilmesh:
Sorry about the misspelling of the username. :).

Am downloading notepad++ and will try again. incase i face an issue will send you the file. Thanks for guiding me. :)

@corruptionfreeindia & [MENTION=4910390]avirk[/MENTION], Thanks. It worked out perfect with Notepad++.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Your welcome. Glad buddy we could help you. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
Good to hear that you read the spreadsheet, I thought you haven't that's why I shared it with you Sir :angel:

I doubted the script upon reading the spreadsheet, so quickly I compare those apps that will be removed.:mad:

But upon hearing your side, now I can now safely breathe here :victory:

And also to think, no one has ever reported any issue about your script even me. :o

About the wifi-direct, am addicted on that also. I share files via wifi-direct (much way faster than bluetooth other than OTG cable) :victory:

Maybe that's the reason why sometimes I can't use wifi-direct because of the script (coz I keep on flashing new Rom everytime there's an update).

So count me in, aside from the one who requested you the wifi-direct. :angel:

Can you name those 3 apks for wifi-direct to work? is it listed on OP also? :)

If listed in the OP. I'll be the one to delete on the script so I will not disturb you just to modifying the script. (if only editing in notepad I can do it, but decompiling/recompiling apks/.jar I have zero knowledge here about that), I wish I have studied programming during school days

Just wondering here, why you guys don't want to put the word Sir before your name?...any reason?...maybe due to culture differences :eek:

As I have said before, I like to use the word Sir before your name guys coz I think you deserve it, so please just let me use it Sir [MENTION=4910390]avirk[/MENTION]? please...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Sure buddy here is the name of those three apk's

AllshareService.apk

SecFileShareClient.apk

SecFileShareServer.apk

Just open the zip and open the updaterscript in Notepad++(recommended) under Meta-inf folder and delete the lines with those apk name, I'll recommend to use the search option in N++ because each app have been appear two time in the script due to symlink system. After deleting them just save the script and in zip it will ask you to update if you opened form it or if you pulled out then push it back and overwrite the old one and you done.

Sir word is due to different culture buddy but yeah its due to not have enough knowledge I have. :) So just treat me as a friend man. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drananda:
THX for everything, m8. I don't wont to bother with updating the script just for me. I'll do it myself, I downloaded Notepad ++. I'll just remove Memo app, anything else from the list can be cleaned via script ;)

Cheers

---------- Post added at 11:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:08 AM ----------

Hey avirk, I found out that in your script SecFileShareClient.apk is named like this "SecFileShreClient.apk" - one letter is missing. Just to let you know ;)

The Script is flashed, everything looks good so far :D

Testing will be done ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
It's ok, read OP of list of apks that will be removed. :silly:

Apks is really named as "SecFileShreClient.apk" (I saw it also before and I double even triple check) :cyclops:

I think Sir [MENTION=4910390]avirk[/MENTION] is aware of that. :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JaimeZX:
All - I searched and didn't find a thread like this. Happy to be redirected.

My wife have a pair of Samsung Galaxy S 4G that are starting to show their age a bit. Considering the HTC One as an upgrade.

This is one of the phones T-Mobile has listed when I filter by Android/4G/Wifi calling.

Curious if some of you can chime in with what you like and don't like about the phone.

Thanks much in advance!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HKSpeed:
I loved my Galaxy S 4G (aka Galaxy S1). If you like Touchwiz, then you'll like the S4. People say the HTC One is great for it's one-piece metal design, but I think that's a moot point if you're going to put a case on the phone. Plus metal exteriors scratch and dent easier than plastic. You can't swap batteries or use external microSD cards on the HTC One. The microSD isn't a big deal for me, but the phone's battery will start to degrade after 12-18 months. I also think the S4 has more support from the developer community and accessories manufacturers than the HTC One.

The one positive of the HTC is it will get 4.4 KitKat in 3 months, whereas the S4 probably won't see it until 2015 (LOL). I also like the HTC's front facing speakers.

http://www.engadget.com/2013/10/31/htc-one-android-kitkat/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackknightavalon:
The only thing I don't like about the S4 is the inability to take a screenshot through the phone itself. Other than that, I'd put my CM 10.2-powered S4 against a HTC One X any day of the week.

Oh, and the lack of a physical keyboard. Having been with Android since the days of the G1, that and the trackball/trackpad were the selling points of that old iPhone-killer.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flying_pigs:
You can take a screenshot through the phone itself on the S4...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackknightavalon:
I get a black picture every time I try to do that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flying_pigs:
Using a custom rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackknightavalon:
According to the first post of mine you quoted, yes. :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Then you have set up something wrong. That's a standard CM feature for all versions on all phones.

The only thing I don't like about this phone is the weak vibration. That's the only real drawback to it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackknightavalon:
Okay, I got it working. I was trying it through a screenshot app, but the native CM screenshot works. Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] icewolf293:
I'm torn on the button placements.

The power button

On one hand it's easier to press with the button on the side and not on the top (coming from an LG g2x) but it's too easy to press when i'm gripping the phone or adjusting the volume

Home button.

Still getting used to the non touch home button, I find myself touching it more than pressing it. also with my gloves on i find myself touching the bottom of the screen when i push the button.

But still vs the HTC one (which is a great phone) i still prefer the s4, mainly due to the removable battery and SD card slot. I also found the htc one got a little hotter in my hand then the S4 but i'm pretty sure thats up for lots of debate. The only upside of the HTC is the speakers
