[Q] - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Does anyone know of a guide on what bloatware is safe to delete from the phone after getting root installed?

HAHA.. Thanks funny man. It was one of those stupid questions when the obvious answer isn't obvious to the person asking.
I also forgot to add a title so to this thread, sorry about that folks.

Just make backups of everything, and restore if something goes haywire. Or if you're not sure about a specific process or apk, Google it specifically. Stuff some people consider bloat other people think is useful. I delete Google Talk and stock gallery, and I run CM10, which is pretty bloatless.

Reboot- phone powers off fully and then boots up.
Hot reboot- phone remains on and reloads configuration files. (Ie build.prop init.d init.rc etc)
someone else may be able to give a more detailed description

A hot reboot means the shell restarts, but the file system remains active.

Hot reboots are typically used when you install a custom status bar icon, mods, and other things pertaining to the shell.

Confusion.
Alright, so I can use hot reboot when i modified some system files while the phone was on, like build.prop or anything like that and reload those files to apply the mods without actually shutting the device down? Sounds cool! Who invented this idea? That guy deserves a thanks!

Why not just turn it off in the settings?

In one of the latest version (don't know which one) it turn on by itself. You can uninstall it or rename it in /system/app.
That's the main Why.

Try to copy, browser crashes

So this has been going on for a while and I've just ignored it, tried to search up a fix
But couldn't find anything.
Anyone else had this problem?

Sorry. I use Chrome and dolphin.
Also I'm not rooted either.
I know there was a small update a while back but if I remember correctly it didn't start right after that

I had this happen a while ago. The clipboard was corrupted. There is a procedure to clear it. I will look for it.
Edit:
Take a look at what I posted over here:

Let me know (and click thanks) if this fixes your problem.

Are you rooted? You can clear it without a reset if you are rooted.
Edit: Just saw your later post that you are not rooted. Some have reported that they could clear the clipboard by deleting items using Polaris Office. You might try that but it did not work for me.

Google text to speech on jellybam rom

Hi I have jellybam rom on my at&t galaxy s3. I'd ask this in rom thread but I can't post. The mic button on the keyboard that starts voice to text crashes. Says unfortunately Google search has stopped. Does this with any voice to text in any app. Was wondering what I could do to fix it. The only issue I've found with the ROM and I can't seem to fix it myself.
Any help would be appreciated

Anybody? Seriously the most annoying thing ever. Can I replace a different Google apk file?
