I dont use 99% of these apps. At the same time i dont know what is safe / not safe to remove.
I would flash a already debloated rom. Probably easier.

Try the GS3 R6 ROM. I think you'll like it.
I just got the sg3 today after having the nexus one last couple years and xda nexus one forum. Loved the n1 but just time to upgrade. I have a lot to learn about the sg3. How do you root the easiest way? Also best idea for long battery life. Any other info I need. Thank you and glad to be here.

Welcome to the S3 family
Easiest way to root?
Download the T-Mobile image from this thread and extract the .tar file
Flash with ODIN.
Or you can choose a different method, but you will have to ODIN custom recovery onto the phone first.
Go to this thread for guides on rooting/flashing, etc.
As for the battery, read this article about battery conditioning.

Well for starters you can look at whats been removed from the debloated rom and debloat yours to match.
Additionally, you can just search these forums as there will likely be multiple threads about whats safe to remove.
Additionally+, you can buy Titanium Backup and freeze the apps one by one. If they dont cause problems when frozen they are safe to remove.

Hey Mike,
I would recommend installing a custom recovery, I highly recommend Clockwork mod. Make a backup of your system to be safe, so that you can always restore if needed. Next use a file manager with root permissions, I HIGHLY recommend Root Explorer. Create a folder on your sd card called backup_bloat (or anything really). Go to your app drawer and start jotting down the bloat. I'd recommend getting rid of all the TMobile stuff, as well as most of the samsung apps. Once you have a good idea of what to get rid of, go into your system -> apps folder and look for the same icons. Instead of just deleting the files, use the multi-select option in root explorer to select all the ones you want to get rid of. Once done, move them into the backup_bloat folder. Reboot. Test your device out thoroughly for a day or two. If it works great, you can get rid of the backup_bloat folder. Any errors, and you may have removed something needed by the phone. This is my standard debloat process, and it works well for me without having to install any custom roms.
Hope this helps!

Hey is there any update on the copy and paste locking up the phone and the test service crashing being fixed for good yet?
I didn't even know there was a bug like this. Care to elaborate? Rooted? Rom? What/When/how does it happen?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
There are multiple threads with solutions here.. Copy and paste your thread title into the search box and voila.
Yeah I know there is but no recent posts on any so I was just wondering if there was any update on this. I'm un rooted stock rom. It happens when I try to copy and paste anything.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Guess I somehow missed where it was reported in the past....or just don't remember.
Not sure why it would happen, but it seems its not a commin issue. Its never happened to me.
Have you updated to either UVALH2 or UVALJ4? If updating doesn't fix it I would suggest using Odin to flash the firmware again.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
As I said I am not rooted. Just do a google search and you will see it was a common issue after the latest update.

When I say not a common problem I just mean that the majority of people don't seem to have it. I have no reason to doubt that there are others, was just saying I don't recall hearing of it. Sorry if it came out wrong.
You don't need to be rooted to flash with Odin, which is why I suggested it. Plus if its a problem that didn't occur untill the last update it leads me to think something didn't patch quite right, in which case Odin would probably be the only way to fix it.

Hello,
My problem is that I can't get into Clockworkmod by ANY way, tried many tutorials, few trials with odin but all the time i get into base android recovery. Any solutions ? ( T-mobile )
Delete/rename

Thanks for replying. I also would be very thankful if you could tell me step by step what to do or at least thereabout ? I was always following tutorials to root / install cwm on my phone however I had never problem like this before.
There's not really much to explain. Use a root capable browser to browse to and delete the files I listed.
Then using rom or goo manager you can easily reinstall recovery and reboot recovery.

Okey, will try
So i downloaded root explorer, found recovery-from-boot.p then deleting it, shows that it has been deleted, but nothing really happens. Also the second file you told me to remove (install-recovery) isn't here I found this topic
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867719
did the same but this time when i'm tryin to get into recovery, holdin home+power+volumeup there is weird red exclamation mark or something like this in the corner of galaxy s logo, and when holding those buttons there is appearing screen exactly like in anex, then vanishing for like three seconds, and appearing again ( and same thing again and agian ). When I realease the buttons it redirects me to home screen, but when i'm trying again to load recovery it sends me to base android recovery again. I have seen that half of people trying to get CWM are having the same problem.
What phone is ^^^???

What kernel are you currently running on this ROM? Have you tried other music players? flashed any recent sound mods?
Unless she's tried something else, I believe she's using the kernel from klin1344. Looked to be pretty up to date.

I don't think she's flashed any sound mods, but perhaps that may help?
I'm not a CM guy, so I don't know a lot about it. Hoping one of you guys may have a suggestion.

I'm running the kernel Mr doc mentioned
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Just AOSP I believe. It uses different source that isn't 100% open I don't think. Meaning CM and other teams have to work with what they are given, not enough for perfect. It may get 100% eventually but not right now.
Very interesting I tried to go back to stock rom because when I send picture it says phone not registered on network. Looks like I can only get back to rom that's on phone (liquidsmooth)and I did back up before doing anything.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Do you have the pro version? Free version won't allow you to access root. If not, ES Explorer and Root Browser are good free alternatives.
My favorite is Root Explorer, but its a paid app too.
Once you have this sorted, find the mms.apk you downloaded, long press and copy, then browse to /system/app.
(You may need to mount it as r/w. Press menu key or look for a switch/button on screen)
Rename the existing mms.apk to mms.apk.bak
Paste the new apk in the app folder. Long press the apk and change permissions to match all other apps in that folder.
Reboot and try sending a mms.

Oh and to restore a nandroid backup, you have to use the same recovery you created it with. I think you changed recoveries at some point, right?
If it was created with cwm, it can only be restored with cwm. Same for twrp.
Sent from my SGH-T999L using xda premium
+1 on that. The only sure way to convert backups specific to any recovery is to restore those backups on the very recovery they were originally created on then flash your desired recovery, reboot, boot back into recovery, and create a whole new backup of the one you just restored from the previous recovery. It may take some time, especially if you have a number of backups you're wanting to convert but it's well worth the time in having all your backups in one simple recovery folder.
Gonna try one of the ones you suggested and see what happens lol I changed my mind if I can get this rom where I want it then I'm staying with it lol with your help of course lol

Doesn't matter if you download by phone or pc but I'd use pc for best results. Also, download the latest gapos 20130301 from Goo or you can use updated inverted packages if you like. I personally recommend SlimRoms gapps.

What's that? I kinda wanna stay on the same ROM if that's possible.
I went back to Google and searched again, this is what I found:

I'll report back later to say if it works or not.
Yep. I just used the xda threads, but that looks the same process.
Im also on stock rooted and have used xposed to implement several mods. Great tool!
