Are you joking? If you don't know what those apps/services do, you shouldn't be messing with

anything

on your phone.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kradkovich:
I know half of the apps/services that are on this list but some of them i don't know. Thats why i would like some info on what apps/services i can remove!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
None.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsuttie99:
Hahahaha.....
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
I understand what you mean, you can see a lot of apps that you potentially don't use and you'd like some advice on identifying them so you can remove them if not needed.

The vast majority of what i can see are needed, very few can be removed without breaking functionality.

Also if this is for the sake of battery life, there are other ways to get gains and not have to be this drastic, your active applications will have more of an implication on battery life than most of these.

Sorry that you were flamed for asking a question. :)

Personally i wouldn't bother, but then i don't know what half of these do, this is mainly what i think i'd do, you can break parts of the phone by doing this too, not totally worth it in my opinion.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nope1:
Flamers are the enemy trying to trick you into believing that what is provided for the cattle is good for the cattle. Moo on flamers.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borat38:
This is the most XDA of replies: Helpful, informative, concise, and not patronizing. :good::good: Realize that not everyone on XDA knows everything there is to know about Android.

It's sad and ironic that the flaming done here was from someone who had 18,500+ on his Thank-meter. SMFH.

Just in case someone stumbles across this thread again, not advisable to delete the ff:

Google Partner Services Setup

Google One Time Init

Google Backup Transport

SIM Toolkit

Deleting these would either cause unexplained crashes, or annoying and

persistent popup warnings that interfere with some apps like Google Maps.

General rule of thumb if you're rooted is, freeze them using an app

like Titanium Backup, then observe for a while if they're causing any

unexplainable crashes/freezes/slowdowns. If not, then go delete.

Remember to make a Nandroid Backup in case everything goes to sh*t.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5.1:
Hi... :)

Not sure where you see someone flaming here?

Also not sure what follows is the appropriate link but it describes the term:

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=flaming

So... Looking at your comment and not seeing a lot of people with so much thanks here, I presume that you were referring to [MENTION=4153349]Heisenberg[/MENTION] with his 18.5k thanks?

I don't see any flaming here... :eek:

Nice... digging a 1 and half year old thread. SMFH...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
Thank you sir ;)

I've thought about removing these a while back myself, didn't ask and ended up with no rom :)

Even when i did remove things and ended up with a working but broken Rom the battery gains were negative I'm guessing because the broken parts were in turn using more battery? No idea, but also not worth it anyway :)

Not sure what we've all learnt here but it's been fun :D

Thanks! :good:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberpodS2:
On many other devices I have owned and flashed there was some thread that listed all the safe, maybe safe and not safe system apps to delete. As phones get bigger and bigger this seems to be less of a thing to do. I personally use TBU also to freeze and observe behavior before deleting.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxys:
LOL ? A blast from the past!

Borat38 what are you smoking? :eek:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
hahaha sorry mate, it just came up on my notifications :D

Was anyone that busy with their nexus' anyway ? ;) Sure it's a year old, not sure when that became taboo :D
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lovatastic:
So Basically leave them alone! They're their for a reason.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borat38:
Derisive and insulting, even when done subtly or in a passive-aggressive manner, fits the definition of flaming well. Maybe you have to dig deeper into a dictionary.

And no, I didn't dig into a 1.5 yo thread just to stir up some sh*t. Even on a rooted Nougat now, I have to reference which apps are safe to delete, and came across this thread.

So while you're debating semantics and letting loose on logical fallacies (appeal to authority with Heisenberg's woooh-so-impressive 18-****ing-thousand thanks vs my own few thanks), my point still stands:

When someone asks for help, the most efficient and economical way to address it is by answering it as quickly as possible. Else, what's the purpose of a forum? Similar questions will pop up from time to time. People don't come across the same damn issues simultaneously, and the length of digging through XDA is impractical. Many question-askers are driven directly to the threads via search engines.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michael.johns03:
Behold, Necromancy!

Just because a package is named a thing doesn't mean it's related to that thing or you'd lose that thing. The ability to download files and have a data partition aren't installed packages. If you're rooted, back up and you'll be fine. If you're not rooted you can to a factory rest. You're not risking anything other than learning. Remove everything, but space it out so when things start going sideways you have an idea what did it.

DM stands for Device management. Here in the future the ability to root is dying very quickly, and most phones not have several DM packages. These packages are there to keep us from accessing screens and functions that the device owners don't want us messing with. They can modify whaty we see by removing apps from the play store results so to us it looks like they're not there, even though they are. They can keep us from opening things, or force push them to the background, they can replace our dialer with one that can't use any sort of service codes. They can see anything we do at any time to make sure we're not up to anything we shouldn't be, and have all necessary permissions to access, copy, and modify all of our personal information, activities, locations, contacts, and communications. We're not allowed to lock any of those things in a way they can't control or have the full access that would let us deny them that full access. Oh, and we lock things with fingerprint and iris scans that they have the electronic dats to easily apply for themselves instead of some word of phrase that might not already be in the list we're having them store for it.

Im looking for a good quality Glass protector for my G3.

I see a lot of cheap ones on and can't decide between all of them.

Can someone point me to a good quality one, even if it's a little more expensive?

Ebay and Ali express are preferable.

Thanks!

[G3 Accessories] Ev_da_bacon:
I've used this one from Amazon multiple times and loved it. It's super easy to put on, practically invisible, and feels great. Even when it does crack I never get a huge spider web, always more of a small hairline fracture. That means that I can barely see the cracks and I often wait to crack it multiple times before getting a new one. I drop my phone at least once a day and yet this one still lasts me multiple months even without a case

Any word on cases for the Pixel C yet? If you find one please post.

Thanks!

I've just seen a sleeve that will be out later this month:

http://www.amazon.com/Tablet-Sleeve...=UTF8&qid=1449678769&sr=1-11&keywords=pixel+c

I wouldn't mind a faux leather flip cover for times I know I will not be using the keyboard for a while.
[Pixel C Accessories] Sam-X-:
I am looking for a leather case with kickstand function. Anyone seen anything?
[Pixel C Accessories] KejPi:
I am looking for something like this http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Slim-Fit-Multi-angle-Android-Samsung/dp/B00A9G985S/

With automatic sleep/wake-up function. I use very simillar case with Nexus 10 and I am very satisfied with that.

Anyone seen anything?
[Pixel C Accessories] Geese1:
I think case manufacturers are going to be running into problems since the Pixel C uses a lot of magnets in the tablet chassis to attach it to the optional keyboard. Putting on a standard cover is going to negate this benefit I would imagine.

I'd like to get a sleeve, sort of like the one posted earlier, that will allow me to protect my Pixel C and keyboard when I throw in in a bag or backpack since I'm not sure how resistant the aluminum body will be towards scuffs and scratches.
[Pixel C Accessories] ZiggSVO:
I need a simple book cover type samsung like case :p

They could use all the magnets to benefit the folio type case set up like samsung uses the clips in the back of the tab s 8.4
[Pixel C Accessories] davedigerati:
I am THRILLED to be using again my Saddleback leather sleeve from my original iPad. Funny, only couple years ago the iPad came out but the Pixel C + keyboard are about the same thickness;) Tablet alone would be too loose. Not sure if they make it anymore, but maybe check ebay?
[Pixel C Accessories] scoobydu:
its funny but i am also using my iPad 3 case that fits the Pix C + keyboard very nicely :)
[Pixel C Accessories] Tallon29:
I ordered this sleeve which will be here tomorrow: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005D1R07M

Based on the dimensions, should be a good fit. Comments mention a magnetic clasp which should work well! We'll see how it is for just $4.
[Pixel C Accessories] Niggo372:
I'm looking for a magic/smart cover like the one for the N9 (https://goo.gl/79fapJ), anyone seen anything like it for the C? It should only cover the front and attach via magnets.
[Pixel C Accessories] BinaryTB:
Yeah, this please. Surprised Google didn't think about users who DON'T want a keyboard, just a thin foldable cover for their tablet screen.
[Pixel C Accessories] ZiggSVO:
exactly what I was referring too with my Tab S 8.4! We need this now :p

all the people that got it for just a tablet and not a "c"onvertible
[Pixel C Accessories] Sam-X-:
The Nexus 9 smart cover was one of THE worst engineered covers I have every used! In other words, it was just a big piece of cr** and not worth the money. Let's hope they bring us something better.
[Pixel C Accessories] Niggo372:
Don't confuse it being a piece of crap to it not doing what you want it to. I was sceptical about it at first, but after a while it started to work extremely well for me and now I don't want anything else anymore!
[Pixel C Accessories] Sam-X-:
The magnets in there are just to weak so it comes off the screen to easily (yes, I am using it on the correct side), or does not hold the tablet in place when used a a stand. That alone is a no-go for me.

Also, as a kickstand, depending on the position, it makes it very hard to access the volume- and powerbutton(s), or will accidentally press the buttons down sometimes. This is unacceptable.
[Pixel C Accessories] Geese1:
Anyone have any input on this sleeve:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003CFAHQC/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_dp_ss_1?pf_rd_p=1944687442&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B005550NQ6&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0NJM888E0PN3VKMH3K7V

Saw it at my local Staples today when I was doing some last minute Christmas shopping for the wife. It's just what I was looking for, and I "think" the Pixel C should fit, but I figured I'd check here first to see if anyone had any experience with it. If nothing else, I'll bring my Pixel C up to the store to test it out and see if it will work.
[Pixel C Accessories] Geese1:
So I went ahead and ran out to Staples again, this time with my Pixel C. They actually had a couple of different tablet cases/sleeves, but I ended up going with the one I posted above. Fits very well, and in fact the sleeve is actually a little bigger than needed (probably because the sleeve has a more traditional 16:9 ratio), so you could actually fit a few small things, such as papers, cables, etc., without hurting the slim design.

Now I might look into getting a case actually designed for the Pixel C once they start rolling out, but I"m very happy with this in the meantime, especially since Staples wanted to charge me $24.99 for it and I just had them price match Amazon's $10.97! :laugh:

Esta es la funda que llevo de momento:

Because I am a rookie I can not include the page. Universal HT Silver 10.1

Perfect size, 2-position, nice touch, use c Port aux speakers and cameras ok

The only complaint one of the four holes in the cover 2 side microphone but I do not use it since. I give it 8 out of 10

Greetings fellow.
[Pixel C Accessories] Khaon:
hey guys what do you think about this case ???
[Pixel C Accessories] Jsunn:
I like that case, but I wish it had the cut out for the back cover lights. (battery level lights) I think they are a very nice aesthetic touch that should be visible.
[Pixel C Accessories] beardymcgee:
Just got a reply back from sfbags they have there current cases updated for pixel c now, pre order only but shipping in January or so.

They make great stuff have their city slicker for my 3ds and vita.

No link cause I don't post at all sorry, google is your friend
[Pixel C Accessories] Avalun:
I have the Tablet with the keyboard, so I bought this case: http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00X97MM4I

It fits perfectly and I even could put the usb/ethernet-hub in the pocket on the side of it.
[Pixel C Accessories] Reckless187:
I bought the Samsung galaxy tab case for my Pixel C off Amazon for just under £3! I'm gonna have to scratch out that Samsung logo though :p
[Pixel C Accessories] bill3508:
I ordered one off Amazon but its going to be mid Jan before it here. Really hope some of the big case makers are going to pick this up.
[Pixel C Accessories] kylegeisler:
I did some size fitting in my local stores and i figured that any sleeves made for the surface 3 are a fair match for this guy. I ordered this one off amazon and will post some pics tomorrow when it arrives. I figure its got room for my Logitech bt mouse and the pixel c charger.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XPVH5KE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01
[Pixel C Accessories] kylegeisler:
I'm not OP but I'm delivering.

In general I'm really happy with this Brenthaven case originally designed for the surface 3. Plenty of room for the pixel and the keyboard along with a notebook. My mouse charger headphones and a few other things fit fine in the accessory pocket. It's a little chunky with all the accessories in that pocket but overall I'm pretty happy with a one-handed carry for everything I need for a short trip or conference.

Here are some pictures.
[Pixel C Accessories] SreePillai:
I got this one, hopefully it'll be good enough.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B009ZQ1VSK?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_1&smid=AWVRBZ3KSI9S8
[Pixel C Accessories] riro56:
Do you think that sleeve has enough space to host the Tablet & the keyboard ?
[Pixel C Accessories] SreePillai:
I don't have the keyboard so unfortunately can't answer that accurately, the depth of the case is about 10-11 mm so there is enough room for the tablet for a comfortable fit. Hope that helps.
[Pixel C Accessories] riro56:
Thanks for the answer. The pixel is 7 mm depth and keyboard 5.5 mm depth so It could a bit small I think.

[Pixel C Accessories] NocBob:
I got the Moko brown leather case from Amazon (I can't post a link, haven't posted enough yet to post links). One thing I will say is that the brown is a little darker than what the images show on Amazon.

Tablet+keyboard fits nicely and there's some wiggle room to the side for the USB cable. Pretty nice for the price.
[Pixel C Accessories] tressol:
I orderd the sleeve from SF Bags yesterday. Online they seemed to be a good quality and one of the few of this quality to be custom for the Pixel C. They are in stock as I ordered yesterday and it will be shipped out today. Will post pics once I receive it. Thanks for the suggestion
[Pixel C Accessories] beardymcgee:
No worries, still waiting on mine to ship as well
