Have been using the xda app from my phone and I can't seem to get the search feature to work well. I was looking for a list of Bloatware that is safe to remove. My Rom is rooted stock with a few extras but all of the Sprint crap is still on it. If someone could post one or point me in the direction of one, it'd be much appreciated

Also, I believe JoeyKrim's latest stock ROM has all the bloatware removed.
Thanks for your help guys found the info I needed. If the search function were working properly wouldn't need to post for help. Tried a ton of keywords and returned no results...so sorry, psuedoremora didn't mean to waste your valuable time.

Hahaha.
Don't say it so defensively.
When searching, if you can't find what you're looking for directly on the site, then you need to use Google search -- enter your keyboards and add xda at the end, it'll search the keyboards, while looking for that site. That's how I found what you wanted.
P.s. I might have come off as a jerk, but believe me, it's better I say something now or at least in the manner of how I said it than have someone flame you worse than me, which is quite often. My request is a very polite way of telling you to search next time... but it's understandable.

Enhanced Email on the market does this. I am unsure of anyone who has modded the Samsung apps to remove the requirements though.

I'm not home right now so i can give you a link.
I used to have a HTC hero running 2.1 and the email app never asked for a pin.
So after i rooted i upgraded to CM6 with Froyo and then CM7 running 2.3.4 and email app was requesting pin for my exchange work account.
So i did a search and found an email.apk that was modded for Android 2.2
I downloaded and push it via ADB. and it worked.
i can't recall if you neeed to be rooted?
So i'm not rooted at the moment with my E4GT so i haven't done it.
try doing a search on XDA im pretty sure you will find it.
Ok i did some search before submitting this reply. and found this

More to the point, why do people root, when they have no reason to..... If you want to know things you can do after root, there is no real need to root.

Now that your rooted you can get rid of bloatware by using an app called root explorer, navigate to the folders stored on your phone and delete everything you see. Bloatware will be gone

Personally, I think Titanium Backup is better for removing bloat because it removes data associated with the bloat too
Also, to backup and restore your rom you need an unlocked bootloader. Root won't help you with that
I think you might have missed the sarcasm, if im not mistaken

Maybe it's time for a sticky thread about the best apps with root access? I think that would be a great idea. I wanted to root for a couple reasons (WiFi tethering, Six Axis controller, and removing bloatware) but there were still some things that I didn't know about that I do now because of a previous thread I made like this one.

Bloatware is any app installed on your phone by a service provider that you don't want, but without root cannot get rid of. (i.e. On verizon, they include vzw navigator, a pay-to-use navigation system; backup assistant, a "service" that works the exact same way as any android automatically syncs your contacts with your gmail account; and visual voicemail, a pay-to-use voicemail system that is equivalent to google voice)

Aww come on people, xda search button fail is 1 thing but google fail takes the cake. Now you must be trolling.
Whats next? Are you going to ask how to find google in the dev forums?
Hey dude. If you dont want to answer then just shut up. If i am really trolling then who cares, if other people know im trolling they wouldnt answer me and it is fine with me.

Dude go take your fustrations out on your wife or kids, if you think im showing off because i know how to read then that really doesnt say much about you.
Like the majority of people here, if i do not know something i will go look it up, not ask others to do it for me. Your either super lazy or just plain stupid.
If paxchristos already answered then its over right. Why would you add up on things on which is already answered. Isnt it showing off. Why would i be frustrated? It is you who should be frustrated because nobody cares about how you show off here. I bet youre also doing it on others. Theres a problem with your attitude man. And stupidity is not even enough to describe. Maybe its just reasonable enough to take that frustration out on yourself. This is a place of information, from basic to advance. This isnt a place of showing off.

I'm going to be rooting mine and my girlfriends phone in the next few days. I wanted to see about removing the Bloatware on the phones once they are rooted. Is there anything special I need to download to be able to remove them? I have most of them disabled but would like to totally get rid if them. I searched all over for an answer but was unable to find one.
Thanks in advance.

Titanium backup. Just download it from the play store and that will do the trick. Search the forum to see which apps are safe to remove tho.
Sent from my SGH-T999
Titanium backup. It allows you to uninstall anything. If you are not sure about a program, you can freeze it, which will not allow the program to run, then if no problems occur it can be uninstalled. if you search, you can find an ongoing list of programs safe to delete
Thank you guys, I ended up getting the pro version and will search for that list of apps you talkrd about and go from there.

Every time I go into a web browser I get a voice telling me click and the web page I am on. If I click on a topic then it reads out-loud. How do I shut this off I have tried to disable the talk feature. I don't want to turn off Google voice for texting and I just want the web talking voice shut off. Can someone help me? Also I have two other questions that I would like to find. An easy way to root my phone and if it don't work out to unroot my phone with the factory stock ROM? And I am looking for an app that allows me to have all my emails and phone calls out calls and in calls logged into my calendar. I had a windows phone a few years ago and stumbled on an app. Was wondering if Android had a similar app? thanks so much, pretty much new to the android scene. I am glad to have found this site. Want to thank anyone who can help me out.

Sorry I really am not into wasting my time. Hear to find some help on my android device. I am pretty new to all this. And PORN is not my thing.
I'm going to risk posting in the wrong forum in the hopes of getting some more attention on this app...MyScript Notes Mobile. I followed the instructions in this thread and am totally blown away by how functional it makes the Note II. This does require root and a custom recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526433
This app vindicates every hope I had for the S Pen. I can scribble a quick note and export the text straight into GTasks, or a host of other apps. I can write page after page and then convert just the parts I want straight into text by circling it. The management of notebooks and pages is simple and intuitive. I liked S Notes OK, but this is in another class.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHHO--XZlqM
The fun part of this is the fact that S Notes is made by the same company that made this app. There is also talk that this app may show up in the Samsung app store before the end of the year, so those of you that are unwilling to root may get a version of this app, too!

Follow the link to the video. The handwriting conversion can be real-time without writing in another area of the screen, or it can be converted later. I know it seems a small thing, but it is not.

Here's a Note2 safe version of the app to flash. The only difference is that the script is modified and rewritten to accommodate the file system of the Note2 as opposed to the Xoom, which it was originally written for. Basically, this version is tested and set up for the Note2 specifically.
I need a few of you guys to test it out before I post a thread for it. This app works 100% for me.
Removed download. Visit this thread to play with the work in progress.
Many thanks! Downloaded and flashing now. Comments to follow.

Installed fine, but the wheel that you use to convert text is missing. Actually, it is there, I just cannot see it. Also, the first couple of characters are a very heavy pen weight, but then it gets real thin.
Just backed up all apps with TiBu and planning on a factory reset to try again.

It's the same thing in the Xoom version. The only difference here is the script isn't formatting your caches to yaffs.
Factory reset did the trick. The wheel is back. The pen weights are still goofy, but it works just fine. I'll keep you posted, but it is sure nice to have the text wheel back.
