APK's and packages to remove

Here is a list of apk's and packages that I personally remove... Assuming you have made a recent nandroid backup and have the SDK installed the first step is to start a command shell, adb remount for delete priveleges, start an adb shell, and then change directories

in windows: Start>Run>cmd.exe

cd\android-sdk-windows\tools
adb remount
adb shell
cd system/app

The next step is to delete/uninstall whatever you want. Most are a two step process (removing "rm" an apk file and then uninstalling "pm uninstall" the server package); but some are just rm'ing the apk file.

Google Talk: useless to me and doesn't break anything else (like Voice or Gmail et al) if you get rid of it:

rm Talk.apk
pm uninstall com.google.android.talk

News and Weather: I have windows in my house. This app bugs me because of its background data/battery use.

rm GenieWidget.apk
pm uninstall com.google.android.apps.genie.geniewidget

Keyboard Tutorial: I bet you've already figured out how to use the CM6 keyboard, if not, run this once before you get rid of it:

rm LatinImeTutorial.apk
pm uninstall com.google.android.latinimetutorial

Live Wallpaper Picker: Live wallpapers are useless eye candy on the underpowered HeroC once the novelty wears off:

rm LiveWallpapersPicker.apk
pm uninstall com.android.wallpaper.livepicker

POP3 Email Client: I only use Gmail... and pop3 pulling will kill your battery

rm Email.apk
pm uninstall com.android.email

Bluetooth: I'd rather not look like I'm talking to myself and it isn't installed in my car

rm Bluetooth.apk
pm uninstall com.android.bluetooth

Tips Widget: really???

rm Protips.apk
pm uninstall com.android.protips

Speech Recorder: This is not for recording voice notes... run it once if you don't believe me

rm SpeechRecorder.apk
pm uninstall com.android.speechrecorder

Twatter: no thanks.

rm Twitter.apk
pm uninstall com.twitter.android

Amazon mp3:

rm com.amazon.mp3.apk
pm uninstall com.amazon.mp3

First boot setup wizard: If it worked once, you won't need it again

rm SetupWizard.apk
pm uninstall com.android.setupwizard

Voice Dialer: run it if you don't know what it is... I don't use bluetooth and google voice search works without this installed

rm VoiceDialer.apk
pm uninstall com.android.voicedialer

VPN Client: If you don't use a corporate VPN, feel free to delete it

rm VpnServices.apk
pm uninstall com.android.server.vpn

CM6 Wallpapers: I use my own wallpaper and wouldn't be caught dead with a nerdpaper on my phone

rm CMWallpapers.apk

Car Home:

rm CarHomeGoogle.apk
rm CarHomeLauncher.apk

You should end up with a little bit more free memory from all of this, probably more than the attached screenshot shows because the screenshot program eats a fair amount of memory.

[Hero CDMA General] trancephorm:
Funny thing is happening here... When I try to remove Twitter.apk with adb, I get "Can't remove, directory not empty". But I can remove it with ES File Explorer in root mode. However "pm uninstall com.twitter.android" gives me Failed ..... Is there maybe that's something needs to be removed before Twitter?
[Hero CDMA General] The Fer-Shiz-Nizzle:
Before you can uninstall the package, you need to remove ("rm") it from the directory.

rm -f /system/app/Twitter.apk

pm uninstall com.twitter.android

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omricn:
hi guys,

i'd just noticed this problem right now, after i told my friend to change his facebook profile picture - it did not change in my favorites contacts, it remained the same as the one he had before..

i remember that when i first got the phone and people would change their facebook profile pictures they would simultaneously change in my favorite contacts as well..

i already tried removing the contact's photo and canceling the contact's link to facebook and set it all back again, but i still get the previous picture and not the new one.

maybe something to do with cache?.. i'm just thinking out loud here..

any idea guys?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faelok:
I believe that it has settings for auto update times (much like the weather, stocks, twitter, etc). Check to see how often you have it set to refresh. You can find it under settings/data services/facebook (login, data sync)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omricn:
well.. yet another issue solved, thank you faelok!

Actually the update time was 2 houres, and it had been alot more than 2 houres since my friend changed his pic, BUT - i logged out of facebook acount via the data services setting, and when i logged back the pictures changed to the recent ones :)

p.s.

this did not help though when i logged out of facebook via the facbook app, it only worked once i went to settings > data services > turned the Facebook switch to OFF and ON again..

again - tnx alot!

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] siddharthsai:
Can anyone tell me why my camera doesn't work without memory card ? Its showing insert memory card. Come on , not even 5 pics on the onboard memory?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] chetermaat:
Think its the phone internal memmory.

I think they set android to that because of the storage space of the internal phone memory.

The size of a 5Mp foto takes up some storage. When the internal memory is filled up to much. The phone (android and applications) will slow up/not respond/or crash.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] benjymous:
That's correct - since photos from the camera can be over 1mb in size, you'd quickly fill up the internal memory and kill the phone

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomedic:
Over the past 12 hours I've had to pull the battery 3 times...

The phone was running fine all day (and generally is always very stable for the months I've had it). I put it down last night before I went to bed and when I picked it up again for some bedtime browsing the screen wouldn't come on. I pressed both the trackball (I have CM6 on it) and power button, nothing. I then plugged it in (I knew it was low, but not low enough to power off) and nothing, no light, nothing. I then got a touch scared. I pulled the battery, put it back in and it rebooted. It was fine for the rest of the night...

I plugged it in for the overnight, and when I woke up the light was still orange. The screen again wouldn't turn on. Battery pulled, it rebooted, and it was usable (full charge). I left the phone alone for about 20 mins (unplugged) and now it's back to being unable to turn on the screen.

- I've had CM6 final on it since soon after release with no issues

- I generally use Pershoot's kernels and I think (think) I updated to the latest .35 kernel yesterday. Again, I've never had an issue really in the past

- Updated TBA Pro, added the screen calibration apk, and removed quick office.apk via Root Explorer.

That's about it for "new" stuff I did yesterday.

Gonna put on Pershoots latest .34 kernel (I really don't think that's the issue) and see if that makes a difference (I always use the .35 kernels). I also wiped the dalvik cache. If that doesn't work, I'll remove the calibration app.

Any other opinions? Possible battery pooched? I charge it nightly, but other than that there hasn't been an issue. Certainly would be the first time I killed a battery in a phone...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctbear:
That happened to me once when I installed one of IR's .35 kernel. I reverted to pershoot's and all was fine. (IR's new kernels are fine too)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomedic:
Ya, maybe... I put on the kernel in the morning though and all was fine all day. I installed his latest .34.7 kernel and wiped dalvik cache. So far so good...

[EVO 4G General] thenags:
In the last week I have an issue where one person will call me or text me.. But their name and info comes up as someone else. It's constantly happening with 2 people in specific. I've deleted both out of my phone. Readded them.. Made sure they aren't linked or anything like that. Yet when person #1 calls me.. The phone tells me it's person #2 calling. Same when I get a text. Person 1 calls me. But I look at the phone number and it's person #2. I even did a full wipe this morning and installed a new version of the rom I'm using and it just happened again. Right away the phone is suggesting to link these 2 people bu I cleared the suggestions. The names aren't similar, the phone numbers aren't similar.. Nothing. Any ideas?

Also to add.. I do not sync my phone to FB at all
[EVO 4G General] nhutpham:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jngggggggg:
I got my HD2 in hong kong:

manila:1.0.19211620.0

row:1.72.831.1 (82124) WWE

OS: 5.2.21869 (2.1869.5.0.082)

i am wanting to use cookies home tab but it is only compatible with manila 2.5xxxx

this is strange because when i searched this, it would seem that the manila version on the hk hd2 before the ROM upgrade given a few months ago was actually 2.5xxx. They downgraded? Regardless, is it possible to upgrade manila or simply if c0okies creation is 1.0xxxx compatable?

Thanks so much
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Your version you mention is the; manila 2.5.1921 version. like you can see it is compatible.

But you mention you used WWE Rom version; maybe you can flash a cooked Rom?! :confused:

Last manila version is version 2.5.2018. :)

but you are free with that.

Just bought mine a week ago from StarHub (the official retailer for galaxy beam).

I second the subforum idea. How about starting a google group as well since the community is so small.

For those who wish to purchase the phone:

You need to place a reservation at StarHub Center before making the purchase. It takes about a week before your phone is ready for collection.

I was lucky enough to get it immediately because someone cancelled his reservation. :)

I have some bad news for you. Samsung has officially stopped software support for that device last month and said there's no plans for official froyo for it as there's just not enough beams out there to warrent the support as it was only sold in Singapore and very small numbers.

[About XDA developers] paqnek:
Hi guys,

nice to see that I'm not only one in Europe with Beam :).

If you want to have better performance of Beam the best combo in my case was:

Universal Androot + Milestone Overclock (1 GHz set) + Set CPU (min. 550-600 MHz) + Launcher Pro (TW launcher is too heavy for that phone. You'll have to change path to the contacts BTW) + some task killer. After that phone seems to be almost smooth working. And still waiting for a ROM :)
[About XDA developers] nocomp:
hi paqnet :)

welcome in the tiny family of the beam owners :)

your setting is quite similar to what i ve done, what a change.

one thing tho, if you set cpu to 1ghz you ll get green pixels and green lines when recording video in HD mode.

i ve droped it to 800 mhz and now works like a charm so far :)
