Paranoid Android, Blue Cobalt theme, random background pic... simple, yet visually pleasing.
I love the cobalt themes just for the icons. But I am in a stock icon mode atm, I have all the colors from cobalt as well as a few others. They are nice. And afterburner looks pretty sweet. Thanks for sharing.

Nice look to it, is it pre-tweaked? I like PA due to the hybrid-ness between phone and tablet modes as well as some other settings. But I'll keep that one in mind if I end up trying a different ROM.

I've actually done research and there are a few that do work. Avast and Zoner work. You can test it with a file from the market. Search for 'Zoner antivirus test' and DL that to test your av app. Its not harmful to your phone, just has a piece of code that is recognized by av software. That will tell you if it works. Personally, I've used both and have found Trojans in apps on the market which are immediately scanned and deleted automatically. So I know they work for me.

Yeah I've used Avast but don't you wish that these so called security programs would scan the apps for unwanted ads instead of trying different 'Ad Blocker' apps that most times don't work anyway lol, I guess the only way is to get rooted (soon) so I can use 'Lucky Patcher' just nervous about rooting even though the 'hereric rooting' thread looks easy enough but I had it easy with HTC/Android phone rooting cuz it's just one click programs and your done with basically '0' chance of bricking

Uncool. Using lucky patcher is, first of all, illegal, second, these devs who give you free apps need to support themselves somehow. So they put ads in their apps. If you're not willing to see a few ads for the functionality of the app, you don't deserve to use it.

I am not talking about ads just in free apps but also 'PAID' apps, which should not be aloud and I do pay for apps and I agree all devs deserve to get the money for their work so if your the first to cast stones do so but not in my glass onion.
Rooting the nitro is a process but its quite simple. As long as you follow the instructions you shouldn't have any problems. Ad free usually takes care of ads on a rooted device, without having to use lucky patcher. You should definitely give it a shot once you root.

App Quarantine is a free option and it's adfree
I think the best way to get rid of bloat is to root your phone and installing a custom ROM without all the bloat.
I put off rooting my phone thinking it'd be too complicated or scary, I didn't want to brick my phone but there are great YouTube videos on it.
Then flash a custom ROM (more YouTube videos). I've tried the Mohkg, Zombie, Bombaridier, and Juggernaut ROMs. I like BeastMOD and am trying Paradox right now.
I'm using Root Freezer Pro and it works like a charm.

Agreed. Titanium Backup is well worth the money.
HERE is a spreadsheet that lists whats safe to remove, what they do, and whats not. Knock yourself out.
script
I one of the forums there is a script by playya to remove bloatware. Does anyone know if it is only for custom ROMS, or whether one can flash it on stock ROM. Noob status does not let me ask the question in the apps/dev forum.

Hi,

thanks
i was just wondering if anyone knows why google play store doesnt restore any of my apps after i do a clean wipe and and flash a new rom. it used to start re-downloading them immediately on the first boot up after i signed in on my G2X when using a CM based ROM. and does any know of a free and reliable way to batch restore apps???
I wonder this my self... But I use titanium backup it has its bugs sometimes but it works fine for me

Did you leave the box checked that said sync with Google (OE something like that on the first boot)
And as far as tb goes give app to zip a try. Its a great app, and there is a free version that will do all you need. And the pro version is less than three dollars

Saving my apps to an sd card works for me. I also tend to modify roms via the android kitchen and while at it, place a few apps I need accessible prior to flashing (root explorer, etc).
Well, I've noticed that they don't restore all the time unless you use the same ROM. But even a stock rim misses the occasional app. Titanium Backup works great for me.

Remove your Google account, and just add it back for auto restore to work again.

Just a kick because if your apps don't start to auto restore and you want them to, simply go to Settings, Remove your Google account, and just add it back. Worked for me.

for Android
Supported on versions 2.3 through 4.2,
including Kindle Fire, CyanogenMod, and Intel.
While Android itself is "open", the devices that run it often aren't. Before installing Substrate, you will first need to get root access on your device.
Depending on which device you have, and which version of Android, this process differs; we therefore can't provide a simple recommendation.
Once you have root, you will need to install our APK, run the application, click Install, and grant Superuser access to Substrate when prompted.
Interesting
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
@jd14771: In the play store description it says:
Users should keep in mind that Substrate includes a safety feature: by holding down the volume-up button on your device you can disable Substrate while it is attempting to load these modifications (such as while it is turning on and starting); this will give you an opportunity to use Google Play to uninstall things that might be broken.
