[Q] Titanium BACKup

i already rooted my baby and titanium isnt working well. i backed up all the apps and the unninstaled few. but i cant reinstall them again. titanium is stuck on restoring --forever.. debuging swith on and as i said rooted...
i reinstaled TB few times..restarted phone..etc.. nothing helps
anyone experience the [email protected]?

It's somewhere in here, it states to restore 1 at a time works.

Switch the app processing mode (under preferences) to classic. It's not ideal but it works.

Ya, that's what I read in another thread, with the same question.

i did it without any effect..now cant even unninstall anything with TB.
all i did was a root. and i wanted back up my stuff (apps) and remove some that i wont use.
i can backup - but not freeze or unninstal now-
EDIT: --|>Dont mind me --i found it.. You have to keep switching between the modes at all the time... anoying but at least working

Have you notified the developer?

It works absolutely fine for me. It might be worth running root checker from the market.

This. If anyone is having issues then follow this. I'm not sure either but it does work.

I had this problem yesterday upon flashing 4.0.2. The way I fixed it was by updating its bootloader to the latest OTA one.

No need to change modes. TN has been updated for ICS and works 100% now with the Galaxy Nexus

Removable bloat ware ICS

Now that we have achieved root in ICS , shall we start a safelist of stock apps we can remove without ill effect?
feel free to submit your list. crossix you might already have a safe list and would love it here if you see this thread
I just rooted today but am at work so I will edit my post later with my list once I can take a closer look.

Why not just use ICS built in disable app functionality? I have disabled a number of apps and it seems great!

well i always have been more of a fan of using titanium backup to completely get rid of bloat. also i dont believe you can disable a system installed app even with root. titanium can delete anything :-D

I didn't think there was too much bloat on the A100, even with the ICS upgrade, apart from Aupeo, Acer Media and a couple other apps I barely notice them. Nigh on a stock build, thankfully

What apps did you uninstall and how did you get them uninstalled? I just uninstalled several of them with Titanium Backup, but when I rebooted they were still there. Some of them I was not able to uninstall, error message Cannot remove system app. Failed to locate the apk file.

Use Root Explorer and delete the applications contained in the location: /Flexroom.

Bloatwave removal app

I am looking for an app that can remove some system bloatwaves and I hav been using some apps in the play store but didn't work on my n7 so could anyone provide an app that could remove n7's bloatwaves?

Root explorer or ES file explorer and delete apps you don't want in /system/ app

Mind you, for system apps you will need root access.

Titanium backup and root paid version just freeze them.

What bloatware do you think is in your Nexus 7 anyway? Just disable them using the built-in mechanism, no need to remove anything.

Yea I've compiled aroma installers just for removing bloatware but this is usually carrier related garbage or touchwiz/motoblur/sense stuff. None of that exists here so I wouldn't even spend the time creating that. I don't think there is any bloatware here just maybe "unwanted" apps. which once rooted can be easily removed or just frozen/disabled.

where are bloatwares in a stock jellybean rom?simply deactivate what you don't want\like..no need to cancel..for example a rom like bamf has built-in the tool to deactivate system\apps.very usefull for a person in yours position..

As a matter of interest what apps/files can be frozen via titanium? Anyone got a list of which are safe to remove?

I'm interested in this too. My device isn't yet rooted. You can force stop apps from settings but I believe they start up again at reboot which is annoying. Maybe time to root my device!

NO! There is a Disable button on the same screen with the Force Close that disables apps since ICS.

Disabling bloatware

Sorry if this is posted somewhere, but I have read and searched and wasn't able to find anything.
I have an SGH-I317 running stock 4.1.2 rooted and would like to know if there is a list of which stock apps can be safely disabled without causing problems with other apps.
This is my first android device as I have been an iPhone user since the very first one launched up until 2 months ago I made the switch. I'm very happy with the phone, I just would like to know which factory installed apps can be disabled without causing problems with other apps.
Any info is greatly appreciated!

No list to my knowledge. ..
Use titanium backup pro and freeze the apps you wish to remove one by one and test.
Most ATT apps can be dumped without issues, and freezing them is safe in case you need them.
You need root of course. ..g

Is there a difference between freezing them and disabling them?
I know disabling them 'hides' them from the app drawer. Does freezing them do the same?

Freezing makes it so that the android system cant see it i believe disabling just makes it stop running and removes the icon

I found this after some more searching, it is for the s2 / s3 but is a pretty good to go on list for other samsung devices as well.

That is a good reference list. ..
Thanks for the link. ..
I trust you are now using titanium backup ??
It really is a great application. ..g

I haven't went with titanium pro yet.
It's on my wish list of apps to buy.
I just went with disabling the at&t apps for now. I've tried a few custom ROMs which had the bloatware removed but there was always something missing that I liked from the stock ROM. (I don't mind some of the Samsung apps)
Plus being new to android I'm still learning what it does and how it does it so I'm nervous to use custom ROMs until I'm more comfortable with what's going on with my device. It's a bit of a shock to the system going from iOS for 6 yrs to android.
Overall I'm happy with the switch so far.

I am still stock... unrooted. Hide the bloats and you won'y really feel the 'pain' too much until you are more confident of what you are doing. I experience no lag with all my bloats hidden. I didn't even bother to disable them. Phone is still smooth as butter.

Same. Stock and not rooted. The bloat isn't insane on the Note2 so I think I'll stay stock as long as possible.

But hiding the bloats doesn't keep them from running in the background right?

Disabling apps does in fact keep them from running.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

I know disabling them does. Someone had mentioned hiding them so I was asking if hiding them prevents them from running in the background. I'm pretty sure it doesn't but wasn't positive.
I took the disabling route because it hides the apps as well as completely turning them off.

[Q] De-bloating OTA 4.3

Hello Everyone,
Since it looks like I will be stuck on OTA 4.3 version for awhile,I might as well play with it for awhile... I was just wondering what would be the best way to de-bloat this sucker? I am rooted already and have CWM 6.0.4.3 installed. Has there been a script developed already like Ashman's for this new version?
Thank you in advance!

I haven't seen one yet but you can definetly delete carrier apps like my account etc and google apps like google maps safely.

Also, make sure you make a nandroid backup before you delete any system files with titanium. There is no other way to go back if you delete the wrong app and/or softbrick.

I haven't seen a new list or script. An old list I came across has a post to a docs spreadsheet for the SGS3

Please understand that I am not vouching for anything on that list, even the things I have frozen with TiBu

Thank you all for your help with this. I got rid of a bunch of apps I didn't want and things are running smoothly

I have found as others have if you turn off Paper Artist that Gallery force closes when you attempt to share a picture. Not sure if using Tibu will cause the same issue, I haven't re-rooted yet. You may want to test if you got rid of Paper Artist. Just a thought.

I uninstalled a bunch of stuff and was getting a bunch of force closes. I then decided to switch to quantum room and kernel for the debloating they did and the speed and reliability
