[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] collegekid13:
I am running a rooted Galaxy S Vibrant (I9000M) in Bell. It comes pre-loaded with a bunch of useless applications that Bell are useful. After some googling I learned how to remove them. It looked like problem solved.

That was two weeks ago. Tonight I go to my application menu and suddenly all those Bell apps are back. I was wondering if there was a way to block them from ever coming back?

TL;DR

How do I block specific applications from installing on my device?

Apps in question include:

"GPS Navigator 5.5.15." - com.telenav.app.android.bell

"(Bell TV) Remote PVR" - ca.bell.android.BellRpvr

"(Bell) Tunes and Apps 1.0" - com.sec.android.app.tunesandapps

"(Bell) TV and Radio 1.1.1" - com.quickplay.android.bellmediaplayer

The phone is only 12 days old guys. Have some patience.

I'm sure someone in the CM team will get their hands on a MT4G soon. If not, then I'm sure another capable dev will figure out how to port CM6 over to our phone.

Honestly, I'd be down to donate $5 to the CM team along with the OP. We'd just have to hope 88 other MT4G owners will do the same.

You would be a fool to go back to the wobbly hinge G2 just because they have a ROM. This is a much superior device and they will come. Just be patient.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrandonB1218:
Some of you guys are being stupidly impatient. You can't expect a bunch of ROM's for a phone that achieved a permanent root just a few days ago.

Development is going fairly quickly anyway. Kmobs of CM already has a working build for the MT4G. That's pretty damn good and since in many ways the G2 is similar to the MT4G, things should go even faster.

Look at the G2 development forum, they've already got the G2 ROM ported to the MT4G. Another example would be VISIONary. It worked for the MT4G before it was even meant to.

Either way, MT4G users have no room to complain. The phone I came from, the Vibrant. It still doesn't have CM or a stock Android 2.2. Even the ROM's it has now took at least a month to perfect.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lonlawrence:
I hope I feel the same about my MyTouch when it gets here Wed (if UPS doesn't reschedule, like they always do). Right now, the Android that all other phones are compared to is the Evo (I have one). But in my town, which has 3 sprint towers... 2 of them have been down for 4 months and I finally gave up and switched to TMO. I hate giving up my Evo (rooted, custom ROm, custom Kernel)... there is so much support for it from software to accessories (I have the 3500 mah battery from Seidio). I'm going to miss all the goodies for the Evo while waiting for all the support to catch up to the MT4G (which it might and might not... we never know how much an individual phone will be supported). I am so surprised how the G2 got supported. Sliding keyboard phones don't usually get that much support because they are so flimsy. Let's hope this MT4G has as much appeal to the developers as it did to us! If I don't like it, I'll have the option of going to ATT sometime in Dec when they finish switching over from Alltel.

Unless I'm very much mistaken, it's Cyanogen's new phone, therefore it gets massive CM lovin'. kmobs has the Glacier though, it won't be left out in the cold.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 30Glock:
This is key, We need to show the developers some love here $$$$, Devs will work on devices that produce the highest returns=$$$$, There are so many EVO owners that producing a quality rom will have excellent returns=$$$$, The upside is with the hardware of our devices CM has the potential of creating thier greatest Rom to date. Lets be patient and get a bug free release, Instead of a premature release full with bugs.

[EVO 4G General] kellte2:
I've noticed that when I'm not on wifi, my gmail is no longer pushing to my phone, but will delivery whenever I wake the phone up.

I never had this problem before with gmail even with "Always On Mobile Data" disabled, but now it seems like the as soon as the 3G radio goes to sleep, I don't get anything until it wakes back up.

Any one else having this problem with the latest version of the gmail.app? Has this never worked since always on data is off?
[EVO 4G General] kellte2:
no ideas?

I have no task killer running, running auto-sync and background data (but not 'always on mobile data'). Gmail has always pushed over 3G, but it has recently stopped as soon as the 3G radio turns off (5-10 minutes of sleep).

I did factory reset last night and flashed the new 3.30.xx update and am running Netarchy's kernel v.4.1.8.1.
[EVO 4G General] Zabalba:
I can tell you since day 1 of my phone when it launched having "always enable on demand mobile" switched off, will NOT sync data services (including gmail).

Always enable on demand mobile as you know turns off the 3G radio after a few minutes to conserve power.

If you say you had it off in the past and it synced it must have been a bug in the rom.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5tevieb:
Hi I'm new here. Have just rooted my desire using reflash. Was wondering how I go about using custom roms. Also can I revert back to the standard Rom if I install a new one.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
Now that you have rooted it, it means you now have a Working Recovery Partition. Everything you do subsequently with ROMS is using the Recovery.

Acess recovery with the following steps:

Switch off phone.

Power on by pressing Vol Down first, then Power on Button without releasing Vol Down, and then finally Release Power button.

The device boots into Boot.

Now use Vol Down to select Recovery

Press Power on button again.

You are now booted into Recovery.

If you're using Clockworkmod recovery, you should first create a Backup. This is called a Nandroid Backup. This allows you to restore your phone completely to its current settings. Phone data, contacts, Boot screen and all..

After creating a Nandroid Backup, download the zip file for custom ROM (Try searching for AuraxTsense ROM. It's one of the best ones), copy it to the root folder of your sdcard. Rename it to something you can remember.

Now reboot into Recovery, choose the option to "Flash ROM from zip" (or something similiar. Dont have my phone right now with me.), then choose the file you downloaded earlier.

The phone now shows a few steps, and says its completed. At this point, go back to main menu with the Back button, Choose to reboot your phone.

Voila. Your phone now boots into the new ROM. Enjoy!

By the way, the next time you post, please include a more significant title for your post. Makes it easier for others to help you. Good luck!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvjh01:
If you have root download ROM Manager from the market, it's free, and then back up and flash using that.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
ROM Manager is a fail IMO, much better to actually use Clockwork Mod/Amon RA directly as you have more control over what you're doing...

Before you flash a new ROM, check that you can get an RUU for the software version on your Desire. If not, you'll have no way of getting back to the original ROM for warranty purposes. Go to:

Settings>About phone>Software information>Software version and make a note of the ROM version on your phone, e.g. 2.29.405.2. Once you have it, go here:

http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Bravo

And see if you can find a file that matches your version. If you can download it and keep it safe as you'd need it to return to stock

[HTC Aria General] -Kevlar-:

[HTC Aria General] brswattt:
is that the liberated ROM?

Or can you tell me where?
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
The Liberated Aria FR series is based upon a leaked world-wide english (WWE) version of the Gratia Froyo 2.2 ROM with HTC Sense.
[HTC Aria General] Darius_bd:
This means that the Gratia wont be having the new Sense? like final-final?
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
The rom that was leaked still has the original Sense and not the new version like the Desire Z and Desire HD have. Whether or not that is the rom that will ship on the Gratia is yet to be seen. It's all speculation at this point.

how can this work for android though.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] wildklymr:
Icons on our phone are just png files. Any png file with the right size will do. There are various apps on the market to change icons on the home screen. If you want to change it in the app drawer too you can use apk manager to extract each apk you want to change. Swap out the icon in the res/drawables, zip it back up and sign it again.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] JJG2:
What is the correct size of the png icons that would most likely resemble the iphone icons?

I feel like alot of icons I find online are too small.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] wildklymr:
well the default samsung messaging, gallery, video and so forth are 72x72 but I guess smaller icons would work too, even if they are a bit grainy.

Edit: The iphone icons in the above website are 120x120 so they are higher resolution than our default ones. I tested it by swapping out the calculator icon in TouchWizCalculator.apk in system/app. It works nicely.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] AntonJart:
Hey everyone. I just received another update, FRG83D, on my mytouch. Does anyone got it? I forgot to check details. What for is this one?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] firedude12:
I just got the prompt as well but I havent flashed it yet..... wonder what it is. It says its a security patch I believe but for who?? T-mobile or the end user. I noticed a thread on tmobile forums about someone losing usb tethering over this, he said they are trying to charge 14.99 a month to use it. If thats the case Ill be rooting once more.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] firedude12:
O and I manually pushed the 2.2 ota so those of you wondering, yes you will get the update automated still. its a 9.6mb file.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] majinkenZERO:
Yes I flashed the update. I had my phone rooted and this update unrooted me so I re-rooted with the Super 1-click app. I saw that it was a security patch as well. I still have usb tethering and all that comes with froyo. So from what I know it is a security patch
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] XfooYen:
I got the update too. When it rebooted to flash, it failed the signature check and didn't install. I guess it's because i have Amon RA recovery. My SPL is the perfected one 0013. Hmmmmm.

EDIT. So the update file is in my cache folder but my phone is ignoring it. When i check for updates it says "up to date". I have run the checkin service and made calls but still no more notification that i need to update. Can i flash this file myself using hboot? Do i need to rename the file? Hmmmmmm. Anyhow, i copied the file to my sdcard for safe keeping.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Phateless:
Saw in another thread that there is a new radio? Perhaps this is it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jmccros:
I do not believe that is the case. I got the FRG83D and usb teather works if you 1st plug it in to your usb and activate the check box. I also have Super One Click Root working. Phone seems to run better
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] thedrickster:
Hmmm, I have the same issue (also running Amon RA 1.7).

I suppose we need an unsigned zip with Recovery removed (to flash and still keep Amon RA).
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Phateless:
Uhhh, you need the oem recovery TO flash the ota update.

If you've modified your system directory in any way you won't pass security check. Have you installed/uninstalled/frozen with TB any system apps? If so, your update won't install.

The only thing I changed was removing amazon mp3 and that was enough to make my original update to 2.2 fail.

If you really want I can make a nandroid of 1.6 and post it up for you.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] thedrickster:
Right, but I want to keep Amon_RA (and not mess around re-installing the OEM Recovery). I ended up removing the recovery component of the OTA zip, self signing and then flashed the zip from Amon RA.

All looks well.

Well aren't you slick! I was gong to suggest simply rerooting using superoneclick. That's what I did.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jblazea50:
You can use Theme Porter to port another CM6.1 theme to the Evo CM6.1.

I usually use that program if I want to try out some themes that are on the N1 and not for Evo.

I have done it for you (latest Gapps, CM6.1 nightly 163, and CM 6.1 RC1). All you have to do is put the files on the root of the SD card. Boot into recovery. Wipe cache and Dalvik cache (assuming you are already on CM6.1; otherwise a full wipe is necessary if you are coming from any other Rom). Then flash Gapps and either the nightly or RC1. You will also have to put the iNexusBar.xml file inside the CM Theme folder on your SD card.

The iNexusColorBar.xml file is attached as a zip file. Just extract the xml file from the zip.

To select the xml go to Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > User Interface > Tweaks extras > Select a Theme and pick the iNexusColorBar. This will require reboot for effect to take place.

CM 6.1 Nightly 163 with iNexus Theme

CM 6.1 RC1 with iNexus Theme

Latest Gapps 11142010 with iNexus Theme

Edit: I did not use the circle battery version because when I tried that on my Evo, the percent stays at 100 and didn't change even though the battery was draining (confirmed using BattStatt widget)

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] t3project:
Its not a theme maker. Its a theme porter. It takes an already existing theme and ports it to different model phones.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jblazea50:
Gapps is the Google Apps that aren't included in the CM roms like Gmail, YouTube, and other apps.
