I'm trying to erase Bruce Lee, Crash Band, and Star batallion. Every time I try to un-install these apps it says can't find apk files. I was able to remove all the bloat and the other three games that came came pre-installed. I really need more MB on my play. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I used a root explorer app and manually deleted the apks. Worked without problems for me.

Yeah if You use Root Explorer and Delete it from sys/app it won't come back even if you factory reset your phone, did this and also used this method to remove excessive audio files...

Want to root your phone after update? Replace kernel w/ superuser inluded, such as dooms. On my end i flashed using dooms just to get root access then flash again to get factory kernel back...

Hi. Was wondering if someone can help me. The market is saying that alot of apps are not compatible with my device that were before (like Facebook and minecraft) not sure what caused it. But what I have done is unlocked bootloader. se based doomkernel v08 and se tweaked rom ( didn't work before I flashed rom) and a few tweaks with root.
This is starting to get annoying now so any help will be much appreciated

Sounds like the build.prop is the problem. Grab a stock one from a 2.3.4 system dump and push it to the root of /system/ folder. Then clear market data and cache and try again.

It could be the build.prop (DPI settings etc) but i solved this problem by deleting market updates

Could be a dumb question but how do I clear the market data cache, and where can I find a stock build.prop?

Unistalling updates works but the old market doesn't seem to show many apps. How can I get default build prop? For some reason I don't have a backup for it. Could someone upload one please?
Fixed: set LCD density back to 240 and got loads of app updates. Think it looks awful so plan for now is change back once a month to check for updates

Yes, OTAs will soft brick your phone if you've removed system apps. Either freeze them rather than deleting them, then unfreeze before you update, or you can use FlashTool to update

Just uninstall anything you want (personally I've got rid of loads) then when the update comes, flash one of the ft files ( u can get them on here) and update... then wait for root lol dunno if we will have it for ics?

If i get titanium backup, i can backup all system apps, delete them then when needed just restore them? Will that work?

Yep. Just don't format your memory card... you could even backup the titanium back up folder to your PC (just to be sure) its on your SD card

As far as i know, if you remove system apps and try to OTA, it will not soft brick your phone, but the update will fail, i think it's only devices with officialy unlocked bootloaders that get bricked (I may be wrong though so don't take my word for it).
I think you can update with SEUS after removing System apps though. And like that other chap says, you can just take a backup of the apps you remove, and push them back to system before you OTA.

Hello people, I have read this thread and I also have r800i with 2.3.4, just brought recently and am new to rooting. I would like to root and was just wondering is there a step by step guide how to do this using super one click and a link for where to download super one click, or the other method mentioned? Kernel is 2.6.32.9 perf build is 4.0.2.A.0.42 if thats any good to know. Thank you in advance.
Enable USB debugging (settings - application- development and then tick USB debugging box), then press home, plug in to USB to pc, and click "root" on the super one click... wait a min and done!! Hope I helped .
If you need help feel free to pm

I got notified with one and I dont want to update anything in fear of it killing the good wifi calling I get with the phone now.
I can only postpone it for 1 day , and I have to keep doing that every day. Is there a way to completely stop it
Download titanium backup from playstore and then freeze Device manager.

You'd have to get root access first, if you're not yet rooted.

Then you can try this. Root the phone. Then freeze it, then unroot the phone again. By using many of our unroot programs such as Unlock Root from here : http://www.androidauthority.com/how-to-root-any-android-device-using-unlock-root-41984/
can i root my sgh-t989 after i update to ics. will i still be able to use ics and just have the capabality to remove bloat and all root fucntions?
if you are a developer you probably can, but if aren't you have to wait for somebody to release rooted version of this rom
Since it isnt actually out yet, we dont know what will work to root with any certainty. You just have to wait.
thanks
I just got this update. Without realizing I updated it. Now i want root :/
D'oh! It will be out soon, we have excellent devs!
lol i know. The only thing is i tether it with my streak7 which is installedi n my car and use it as a gps and media center. with internet radio. I cant tether no more t-mobile app needs to be deleted via titanium backup which requires root!

You can root the new ICS ROM
It is rooted via the same old method used to root the original stock rom. you can get all the files either here on this site or from galaxys2root.com. the root site has a youtube video if you need a step-by-step hand holding.

I lost root with the 4.1.2 update and I'd like to get it back. I went a little crazy with all the Gameloft deals and ended up with about 16 gigs worth of games, so I had to root to be able to use Titanium Backup to store everything on my SD card. I was running the stock ROM just rooted and didn't uninstall or change anything. I can't find anything else about how to gain root after the update that doesn't require flashing anything. Is there a one click option for me?

I also lost root during my AT&T 4.1.2 update, tried re-rooting via Odin, did 3 softbricks & resets & basically had given up on root. Then I stumbled upon this method, tried it & can't believe that anyone would rather root via Odin. Thank you so much!!!!!!!
