Is there any way to add some apps/games to pre-installed ?
If there is a way to do it please tell me how im a newbie and I might ask alot of questions.
Regards,
JC2
Well basically pre-installed means "installed apps, (if paid or under the copyright such as google apps) still protected by the law but legally and originally dependend to the ROM provided by manufacturer/producer/network operator/developer and free to use for everyone who owns the device" which is mainly the phone.
So I think there is no reasonable way to add pre-installed games/apps, but only download/buy them and just install...
I don't really see the point of this question but I'll be happy if my post helps you.
Cheers!
Put the apk in the system/app folder then install it.
That doesn't sound like what you're asking, but the closest I know you can do. Or you can use Titanium Backup to convert it to a system app.

How can I use titanium backup to convert it to a system app?
In Titanium Backup long press the app and choose convert to system app. You need the paid for version though.

Titanium Backup does this. You can backup/restore apps & settings. Also, you can extract the .apk files and copy them to your sd card.

You Can Also Try AppMonster!

I'll second the Titanium Backup recommendation, makes it easy to get your apps back where they were after your flash a new ROM or wipe. It's a must have app for any Android phone IMO and is good enough to be a sole reason for rooting (I rooted my mom's OG Droid just so she could use TB)
Is there a auto install for titanium? Instead if running batch and clicking install for every app?

The paid version doesn't require you to click install for every app (it's a true batch operation).

make sure that your data and contacts are syncing with google, you can do that by menu>settings>accounts>autosync
OK, I have a question, does anyone know of a good app that can make user apps into system apps and vice versa? I know one exists, I use to have it, but can't for the life of me, remember what it was calked!

Never mind I had a backup of the one I use to use. If anyone knows a better one than system tuner, let me know though. I could use a better one.

Titanium Backup has the option to when you long press an app in the backup/restore menu.
I had read this before, but I could never figure out how it was done until you posted. Thanks, lightningdude!
Also systemcleanup (yes, no spaces) can do that too!

Hey guys!
The title says it all! I am wondering what apps you guys believe are a must have right after you flash a new rom.
My first ones are Xtreme Alarm clock and To.do. Both are brilliant at what they are meant to do!

I don't download apps when i install a new ROM for the first time. I restore my apps through TWRP. I use app2zip to generate the scripts.

I'm full of great idea's, but don't have the time to create them or learn the coding to create them. If you want to make one of my ideas a reality just message me and I will give you my idea as specific as possible.
ideas:
-launcher/lock screen
-line rider type game where you control the character
-2d fighting game like art of fighting for the SNES
-multiplayer fps where you create your own map with a creative mode (minecraft style)
-roller coaster tycoon style game
-get phone out of sleep mode
-many more!
Just message me which idea you want info on and I'll tell you!

I reinstall all necessary and desired apps from the play store by sliding going to the "my apps" page, and sliding over to the "All" apps pane and individually choosing. This is because I know sometimes, depending on what rom and phone I'm restoring to, there may be some apps that I see as obsolete and choose not to reinstall. Then, using the app "Datasync" I pull down all my old settings from the apps from my dropbox account back onto my phone. Saves me 30mins of reconfiguring many of the settings. I can also automatically back up to the dropbox account using "Datasync" so that it is always up to date.
Another alternative to datasync is carbon, from clockwork recovery. And for those that are wondering, I tried setting up some "social gaming" using datasync pro on my device and a friend's, so that we could play and beat games together, like angry birds levels, etc, but datasync does a full wipe and backup for both uploads and downloads, and not partial incremental changes like I originally thought, so my social gaming idea failed.
Titanium Backup! Ever since my G1 its been my method of choosing what to restore and backup. Lol I've had it so long its before there was a pro version and you donated to unlock certain features.

Titanium backup and rom toolbox, sometimes Google play store doesn't download my apps so it's always good to have a backup with titanium. I also use apex launcher and have a backup made in that so I don't have to set it up again just click restore

I do this exact same thing when flashing a ROM from a clean start. Usually I do pick AdAway first from the list (I know it not on the Store anymore, so I install the APK from my SD. Then Root Explorer and XDA Premium, then whatever else I feel I want at the time.
On a side note does anyone know when the XDA app will be back up? It's been days (if not weeks?). My subscriptions don't show. That's the only (main) reason I paid for it. Easy access on the go to my threads.

With every other rooted phone I've had I was always able to remove unwanted systems apps by either removing APK's from system/app or using titanium backup. Now with the One everytime I try to do that a reboot causes the apps to return. What's the deal? Amazon apps for example, don't want any of them, I'm rooted, how can I get rid of them?
Edit: I know there is a script I can run, but the script removes too much...

Dude that's insanely generous of you, but I guess this is what it comes down to... I use facebook and twitters integration with sense, which if I'm not mistaken lies in the framework? If I run your script, will it remove the integration? ie Facebook for HTC sense, Twitter for HTC sense... will your debloat script remove that? Really what bothers me more than having the bloatware, is not knowing why I can't remove it from system if it is R/W. I've just never ran into this issue unless it was a tethered root.

HTC has write protection on the system files.
Give me 20 min or so I will have you a script.
WTF write protection on system files? Is that because of stock Rom or what? I've never heard of that before. I did notice when I tried to use ES to move a .wav file to /system/media/audio/notifications it wouldn't stick after a reboot, then used Root Explorer to move the file and boom, it stuck after reboot.

I don't fully understand it, but I know it will revert changes after a reboot. To permanently change something you have to do it in recovery since the filesystem isn't active.
Anyone know how to restore one of the proprietary sense apps? I want picasa back in my gallary.

Have you tried a TB restore? If that doesnt work, maybe pushing the app via adb? Which now brings the question can we push/pull files to system and have them stick, or no go because of write protection?

viperboy has a script to disable write protection, over at the sprint forum, don't know if it will work here or not, pm him and find out

Just wondering if i create a backup of my apps (whats app, games etc) and then restore them after installing any custom rom, do i need to re-register them?
Like for whats app, do i need to register it again? Asking this question because i used a number which was 'accidentally' transferred to someone else by vodafone and yet my what's app works fine right now.

You cant restore apps from a unrooted phone. You need root. You can it do with titanium backup.

For non-rooted apk backup.
"Appmonster" is the one i am using now. It only will backup your added stuff easily. Different programs have different mechanisms for licencing, so there are some that certannly will have to re-connect with the store or something before they will be the paid version. Others that it is a part added securely, and one (piece of crap) wanted to licence verify every day. Appmonster does not backup extra external data stuff, So i do that manually, and again it might still have to connect to finish. or check licence.
there are 2 others that do the simple backup installed apps to apk packages, both worked (unrooted) for what you can do unrooted, i just happen to be using appmonster because it was simple, and aimable to a folder. Some paid programs are not able to be backed up with it, some secured stuff .
Try Helium too. Need to hook up to a PC for it to work though. Works with uprooted.
