When deleting a app in a rom do I delete both the apk and odex? Also on this fourm I remember reading what was safe to get rid of but can't find it now. Found the thread for whats safe to delete
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=703469&highlight=removing+apps
search "barebones" and you can leave the odex file but it doesn't do anything but take up space unless there is an apk to call to it

Thank you I have been using the CR_Mod_1.35.531_OTA Full ROM. What I did was just rip app files out of the zip. I ripped too many lol It installed just fine all the apps worked but when I went to download from the market it wouldn't install. Got the installation unsuccessful. Now I will rip one app out at a time and install the rom.
Hi I am trying to delete system applications throgh all methods I have seen here and in other forums:
using titanium backup.
deleting the apk.
deleting apk and folders.
But all without success
Has anyone done it, i would like to remove (carhome, initial tips, twitter, fm radio...). I have the CyanogenMod 6.1 for Desire.
Thanks in advance
If you are S-off you can use titanium or root explorer but you need to reboot to see the changes, if your s-on you need to remove them with adb while in recovery or remove the apk's from the zip before flashing. If you remove before flashing make sure signature verification is disabled.

**ONLY** Way It Can Be Done,
Is To **ROOT** Your Phone!!

Hi again guys!, I have done it!!
(Before trying this I already had my desire rooted and tryied some file explorer).
My problem was that when i deleted the files after reboot appeared again; now I know why /system is protected and the only way to delete or put files there is (as is said before) with S-OFF (which just deletes /system protection 4ever) or reboot the phone in recovery mode and then mount /system (mount menu) and then delete the apk which is the same that S-OFF but needs to reboot in recovery.
Hope this helps some one else.
Hello,
I would need help of someone. I have a Galaxy S3 Canadian version SHG-I747M, Android Version 4.0.4 Baseband version I747MVLLE8. I tried to put an update to remove SMS logs from the call logs. I used the .zip file in this post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784804
I installed this .zip file and I just got logsprovider has stopped unexpectedly looping again and again. I used root explorer and I deleted Logproviders.odex under system/app. Now, I also get Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped again and again.
I tried to flash a stock Rogers ROM, but it doesn't fix anything. Is there anyone nice to help me to fix my problem ? That would be really much appreciated.
Wait for it.....

Hopefully MODs can move this to Q&A before angry users start posting angry messages here.
WHY U NO READ RULES lol
sorry mod but yeah it should be in q&a.
and to fix logprovider.apk issue. redownload whatever rom you're using and open in winrar and go to system/app and find app name logprovider.apk and drag it on your sd card and then use root explorer if u got then move it into system/app and reboot into cwm and fix permissions there and done. that should resolve the fc like crazy issue
And .. 10 .. 9 .. 8 .. 7 .. 6 .. 5 .. 4 .. 3 .. 2 .. 1
is your ROM deodexed? meaning no odex files? you need to first find a deodexed LogsProvider.apk. then i can help you.
I've come across several posts/apks/scripts/tweaks to remove the stock email exchange security so I decided to share what I built and used. The email apk that is included in this flashable zip was not created by me (not sure who the developer is so I apologize). This is a simple and quick flashable zip file. I have tested it on my Galaxy S III running both Stock TW JB and AOKP JB (Tasks ROM).
This flash "should" work on both ICS and JB. I've tested this on JB but I've used it previously on ICS. If you have any issues using it on ICS please let me know and I'll update this thread.
Install Insturctions:
STEP 0: Make a nandroid backup or backup your pHere however you see fit.
1. Download the zip File for STOCK TW HERE or AOKP HERE
2. Flash the zip using clockwork recovery
3. WIPE CACHE PARTITION & DALVIK CACHE
4. Reboot Phone and re-setup your exchange account
The apk's in these zip files are technically the same 2 files but named differently to account for whatever rom you're using.
**As always, Flash at your own risk, I am not responsible if anything happens to your phone, but I will feel bad :crying:
SInce this flashable zip replaces your stock email app with a modified apk I'll upload all the stock apk's so you can always revert back easily. If you're not sure what your stock email apk's are just navigate to your system/app folder and find the names of your email.apk and exchange.apk.
AOKP Original Email APK's - Email.apk & Exchange2.apk
Stock TW Email APK's - SecEmail.apk and SecExchange.apk
Other APK Possibility - Email.apk and Exchange.apk
On a side note, I'll be starting an APK Repository shortly just as I did for the Galaxy S II. That thread helped a lot of members on XDA so I'll bring that to the GS3 users as well.
Reserved for future use...
Thanks
Hmm seems like not that many people experienced this problem. But i need to install the email and exchange apk because the costume TouchWiz Jelly Bean rom that i was trying does not contain the email apk file originally (its kinda silly for not contain it by default...) so i need to use the apk files from my old AOKP rom. When i was setting up my exchange email, that security thingy kept popping out, sooooo annoying!!!!! Then i kept looking for a solution to solve it, and here comes the zip file. Flash it immediately, and problem solved!!!!!
Really thank you for this!!!

confirm on note 2 LTE version, works great.
Thanks you so much for this straight forward apks, I always digging around to find such solutions, so that i can bypass corp security :laugh:
for other users with no custom recovery:
This is what i did, since i dont have custom recovery installed, I am stock rooted.
I removed the stock email and exchange apks
transffered the patched apks to SD
using root explorer, add the modded ones in system/app folder and rebooted the phone
and vola...worked like a charm
Cheers!

Thanks, I'll give it a shot. Just don't want to brick the phone. I should add, which version above should I use with CyanogenMOD? Aokp or stock?

Make a backup with titanium backup of both your email and exchange apps. After you back them up, delete them both. Flash either of the email updates, wipe cache and dalvik cache and reboot. You should be fine using either. Worst case scenario, you delete the email APKs you flashed and restore your original ones.

Thanks dude!
I followed the steps, everything installed correctly I assume because my email app was back after I deleted it. However, exchange still asked me to accept the security steps. Is it supposed to still ask you (and just not allow it to actually make remote changes)?

Yes, it will still ask to grant it admin rights but it won't require a password or security.

I am also using the North American LTE Note 2 but after flashing with TWRP I am having the "Unfortunately, Email has stopped" message. Tried swapping over to CWM then reflashing the zip file but still getting the same error message. Anyone else getting this?

So i have 4 email files in total being the secemail & secexchange apk along with the odex files. Delete all 4 of these then flash the "stock exchange security removal.zip"?
---------- Post added at 11:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 AM ----------
So I have got it working. Before I had not deleted the odex files and once I did that then flashed the zip from the OP everything worked just not how our security team wanted it to

I was able to delete the 2 apks from \system\app. Where are the 2 odex files? What are they named?
BTW - I'm getting the "Unfortunately, Email has stopped" and "Unfortunately, Exchange service has stopped" messages after removing said 2 files and re-flashing this zip. I'm running Devil's Reject ROM.
New Info: I just looked it up and apparently the odex files are in /data/dalvik-cache. Unfortunately, my /data/dalvik-cache is empty. Hmmmm. I must be doing something wrong. Or perhaps these apks won't run on Devil's Reject v3. Any suggestions?

My odex files are in the /system/app folder on Agriff's 747z rom.
Devils Reject is deodexed. I think I read a post directly from the dev saying that this mod won't work on his rom.
Give Agriff's rom a shot im running it now and it includes this mod. Works perfectly. :thumbup:

Here you all go Stock UCDLK3 SecEmail and SecExchange
No Exchange Security: (Credits to rustamabd for his patch)
So far it's working on my ROM I can't test fully, don't have access to exchange server
You need to clear data from email and exchange before flashing

thanks, can you post something for the AOSP lover's?
I tried updating some apps, and it would not install them......said to free space by managing apps.
I deleted Lucky Patcher by mistake, so that is not an option. It won't even install lucky patcher.apk.
There is no .odex file for lucky patcher either.........any ideas how I can install it again?
anyone?

Too simplistic, though did you reboot at all? Sometimes you need to.
I know of peoole who have this problem on completely stock phones. So the good news is that it's not happening because of anything you flashed, or because of any of the developers work.
Beyond that, I dont know of a way to help it.
