Ad blocking is included in SyndicateROM. (A plug, yes, but OP is a user - as are some of the rest of you!)

I and most experts (including Google themselves if I recall correctly) recommend against automatic task killers.

So I noticed that when backups are made of applications and then later installed from backup, the phone loses knowledge of the fact that these were market apps... thus, it loses awareness of when updates are available. Does anyone know of an easy way to deal with that?
Titaniumbackup.

what about it? i have that on my phone. are you saying it is supposed to be immune to this problem? i dont see evidence of that.
Use AppBrain App Market to backup/reinstall... it does it straight from the Market so the phone realizes the app has been installed.
Had to learn that the hard way when restoring apps from MyBackup

Two ways to fix this:
1. In TitaniumBackup, there is a "Market Doctor" function.
2. After a TitaniumBackup restore, go to the market and download any app, it will sync up with the apps you have installed and restore the market links.

That seems like a lot of work. If I have like 20 apps, I have to download 20 times? So far, I am not liking that. I will look into that app brain thingy.

The paid version of titanium really does handle this nicely.

I use appbrain. After restoring apps from titanium, I sync within appbrain. Done.

But it is less clutter in my drawer
I also use LauncherPro so I can "hide" all those apps I don't want, and now my drawer has no junk in it.

This app has a service that starts up when you reboot. Yes, it doesn't remove the app, but it stops it from starting up the service and it is no longer accessible from the app drawer. In fact, when I did this trick, the icon didn't immediately go away from the LP app drawer, and I tried accessing it again. It was no longer usable.
Even if it's not freed up from the device, it's essentially dead.
Brand new getting my first 10 posts in so THANKS to OP for this tip.
Thanks for this.
or you could just temp root and freeze it. lol that works too.

Hi, I just finished rooting my galaxy nexus.
I rooted only to raise the speaker volume.
I know that rooting allows you to install more powerfull apps.
What are the best root-only apps ?
First thing I installed was AdFree. Root File Explorer is good, too. Oh, and Titanium Backup.
Check out this article:

Totally need this thread. Because this has never been asked before...
FWIW I use ROM manager, AdFree, Titanium Backup, ES File Explorer, SD-Booster.
Ad free, titanium backup, file explorer, wifi tether, disk usage and voltage control.

Droidwall my friend, so you can block stupid permissions on apps like Titanium Backup from accessing the web and stealing all your info.

True.
After that for me it's Tasker, because you can do so many things with it.
Is there a way to stop an app connecting to internet without having to disable alla data connection?

I use DroidWall. It's free on the Market, but it does require root. I'm thinking most if not all of your choices of an app to do what you are asking will require root.
Wow thanks. I already have that app and I thought I'd read it trough thoroughly but there you see.
Anyone know if you can disable apps from starting at all, e.g. Social hub?

If you have root, you can freeze it using Titanium Backup.

Ah yes, I forgot about this app. I have this installed too.
try Gemini App Manager is the best app!
Stop an app from connecting - DroidWall
Stop an app from starting - Autostarts
For freezing apps you could also use app quarantine, I like it best.
Hi
I've tried and looked for several apps to manage the app permissions: LBESM, Pdroid, XPrivacy and so on...
Some apps don't work correctly and others aren't compatible with AOSP 4.2.2.
I'd like to have your point of view to have trust app to manager the permissions and if possible (or another app) to identify possible malwares.
Atm the better one for Permissions mangement is "Permissions Management" available in my Rom and BitDefender Mobile Security for malwares.
Thanks.
PS: I know that several topics already deal with this subject but I'd like to discuss with fresh information and compatible (AOSP 4.2.2 + Note II).
I would recommend you to use ROM toolbox.
it has inbuilt auto start manager which helps you to manage permissions efficiently.
Thanks, I'll have a look soon.
What is the exact option?
Edit
I found it.
Other ideas ?
