You don't technically delete the apps...

But so far I've disabled Earth and Photos and haven't experienced any issues
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Salviikiddd:
But you can delete apps using a root explorer
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
That's true. I haven't rooted or unlocked a phone since my GNex before the 4.1 update so I can't say in this case.

I wouldn't go deleting any pre-installed Google apps though. If that little bit of space is really gonna help you, you should reconsider the amount of stuff you store on your phone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnricoD:
On a STOCK ROM I delete:

- Books

- Calculator ( i use Cyanogenmod calc: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.android2.calculator3&hl=it)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Lee:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnricoD:
better battery life for sure... most of. the apps I deleted starts on boot and remain in cache at boot...

Google Chrome use 25:30% battery...

free ram increased.. I have 1.5gb on boot... boot is faster

but you won't notice any differences in terms of speed with a phone like this :)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wantabe:
I don't delete anything myself. If you stay with the stock rom you will not be able to flash OTA zip files in recovery if you delete apps in the system unless you first flash the system image with fastboot. Another option would be to put the number 1 at the end of any file name which would in effect make the system not see it. An example would be Chrome.apk1. Then to flash an OTA you could rename it back to the original. Another option would be to use Xposed Framework with the paid version of Greenify which would give you the ability to hibernate system apps. I usually see 1.4+ GB ram available right after boot.

i saw a root method that says to use a stock recovery, and i also saw the i shouldn't wipe the cache using twrp... can anyone give me a proper procedure to get to where i need? i have two little kids that are keeping me from doing the proper research myself, otherwise i would.

I haven't done this yet as I am kinda hoping there'll be a non-warranty killing approach available soon. I am in much the same boat as you, kids and all, too.

But I think the way to do it is:

1. Root the device with cf auto root: http://honai-android.blogspot.com.au/2013/12/how-to-root-galaxy-note-101-2014.html / http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2490805

2. Install TWRP via Odin

3. Install cleanROM via TWRP: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2577389

I hope this at least gets you started. Let us know how you go as I will probably be following in your footsteps as soon as I can't stand this unrooted tablet any more... which will probably be very darn soon, warranty killing or not.

Or maybe someone else will chime in with better instructions.

Good luck!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] WeedyEyes:
TWRP is custom recovery so yes you have to flash it using Odin.

After that you can download .zip file to storage and then install it using TWRP recovery.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] a.demarco:
Yeah, I know that... My question was do I have to flash the stock recovery after rooting if I am gonna flash TWRP? Or can I just use the autoroot and then flash TWRP.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinte007:
Hello peeps,

Is there anyway I can push a custom rom files to the phone without recovery or download mode? I currently have CM 10.1 on my captivate. I want to update it to CyanFox KK4.4 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2472657). But the problem is that I can't get into recovery or download mode, somehow its broken.

I already have root so I was wondering if i could push the files in Cyanfox rom to my phone using ADB or maybe something like root explorer? :confused:

Thank you!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
I wouldn't touch anything in your case. If something goes wrong, there will be no way to restore the phone.

Btw, after trying some KK releases I'm back to CM10.1 mainly because of the dialer lag, present in all KK ROMs.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinte007:
You are also right about that. If anything goes wrong, that is it for my cappy. I still couldn't figure out the reason behind my recovery and download mode not working. :S I tried everything possible but nothing worked. Nothing.

I was wondering is there any way I can even try to fix the recovery part? I am using CM 10.1 for Cappy.

Thank you :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
First, make sure all buttons + USB port work fine. Get/make a jig and try to force Download Mode. If successful, flash one-click stock KK4 ROM. Test the device for a while, than update to JB and test again. Someone mentioned before this "no recovery/download" issue and going back to stock ROM fixed it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pputanga:
Picked up the 8125 yesterday. I've got Internet working via wi-fi, but it will not connect via GPRS or CSD. I'm in Miami, FL, USA; I don't think there is EDGE coverage here.

I've called tech support and was told that they are out until Monday AM. Can't wait.

Internet connection configuration on the 8125 is set up exactly as my wife's Razor. She's using Cingular's MediaNet package.

I purchased the PDA data package for my 8125. I didn't get Medianet. I would think that the PDA data package would use different connection configuration.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] mcziggz:
I'm not sure if the connections need to be different (i'd guess not). But FYI you are wasting $20 bux on the pda package. I talked to a very nice & honest salesman at the cingular store and he put me on the medianet package because he said honestly there is no difference. They just invented the PDA package for their TREO users... basically because they can charget them extra.

I'd downgrade if i were you. I looked at the two and see no difference. Unlimited internet is unlimited internet.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcklss1:
Hey guys I'm on an AT&T D800... since Monday afternoon my phone had been unusable... it got extremely hot both front and back near the mid to top of the phone... and was just chewing through battery 31% in 15 minutes... so I powered down and left it numerous times on different stock based rooms and still no luck it would just overheat till it shutdown or battery died if I didn't turn it off... I managed to get it charged enough to restore my stock backup, unroot, and put the stock recovery back on and then did 2 factory resets with still no change... so I called at&t and they sent out a warranty replacement which will be here tomorrow.. so my question is do any of these return to stock methods actually clear rootchecker? That's my only worry that they'll see that and nail me the retail price of the phone... I didn't use a custom kernel just the roms...

I see conflicting stories from people saying yes it does it clear rootchecker and others saying no.. I would just try but I don't have WiFi so I don't burn up my months data just to find out it didn't work.

The phone seems to be working fine since I powered it up 2 hours ago but I'm worried about any residual/repeat issues or decreased lifespan of phone from the overheating issues

Thanks in advance!

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vepaot:
Did you check to see why the battery was being depleted so fast? I am willing to bet the phone itself was fine, but some app was utilizing the entire CPU, which would heat the phone up and kill the battery quickly.

Which means it's entirely possible you'll have that issue with the new one as well.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilmcgee:
Yes they do, I'm trying to say that on my moto bravo, when sending a MMS message, I attach the picture to text and then hit send. After hitting send the mobile data icon appears in the status bar and the message w/ pic is sent. When someone sends me a pic, my mobile data icon appears automatically and the pic is ready when I view the message. On the atrix 4g, this doesn't happen. If I want to send a pic I have to turn on mobile data before making the MMS so that when I hit send, it is sent out. Also, if someone sends me a pic, when opening the message there is a button labeled download that I must hit after making sure my mobile data is turned on for pic to be downloaded. I like the way the bravo ROM handles the MMS better.

I hope this is clear enough now.

I have one also, it's in my second floor transmitting down to the receiver on the first floor. It works okay. I don't get 4 bars, but I also don't get dropped calls anymore and usually have 2 to 3 bars depending on where in the house I am.

Mine was free also because I complained about my coverage. I wouldn't pay too much for one though, unless you get a really good signal from the second floor that you can use.

Mark
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobolinko:
Got one free from T-Mobile.

I was having almost no reception and this stopped the dropped calls but the gain is not like getting full bars while without gets none, if you know what I mean. It just makes the phone usable without having to use your wifi for calling. My wifi calling wasn't good for many contacts. They kept saying my voice was breaking up using the wifi so I asked t-mo to help improve the service for me and they sent the booster. No extension on the contract, no charge for the unit, and not even a charge for shipping.

Sometimes they surprise me with their customer service, and sometimes they just stink!

I guess it depends on who is "helping" you.

Bottom line, the booster works. You cannot amplify a ZERO SIGNAL so remember, you at least have to have something like 1 or two bars and it will work. They even replaced the unit after 7 months cause the signal was getting weak in the house so they said the booster was failing. Again, Free-99 for the replacement. Can't grumble about service like that.......
