[Q] Temporary root

I've been looking through the threads here to see if there's a way I can gain temporary root on my MyTouch 3G Slide. I'm really not interested in a permanent root or switching away from the stock rom (I've got the 2.2.1 ROM), unless there's a really good one based on the stock.
Basically, I just want to get temporary root and remove some of the pre-installed bloatware (the T-Mobile app pack, perhaps the HTC Stocks application) and clear out some space. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Anyone?
Basically, I just want to enable the Move 2 SD enabler and delete some of the carrier bloatware (if at all possible).

How to remove Rogers bloatware?

Hi guy,
Got my Rogers Galaxy S3 a couple days ago and loving it. The only thing that annoys me is the bloatware it comes with, which I don't need. I have googled this and came across people just saying to root the phone and install Titanium Backup to remove the bloatware. Has anyone tried to remove the Rogers bloatware and was successful?
I also know you can use root uninstall to remove bloatware. Is it safe to remove the Rogers applications?

I do not have a S3, but on all my other samsung devices(nexus s, gnex, captivate) they can remove any software when rooted.

I would second the recommendation to root and use Titanium Backup to remove the bloatware. I also am with Rogers and deleted most of the Rogers bloatware, minus the My Account. A stock rooted rom with a few tweaks is the way to go for me lol. But, there are many other roms to choose from if you are so inclined. Also remember to always make a Nandroid backup before doing anything! ha ha ha!! It has saved me a few times!

yes that is one of the most popular ways to do it, through rooting then titanium back up. I've done it and now I am also running CM 10.

Ya know where you go to uninstall a program? well you can freeze/disable them No need for root if you dont want to.

You could also install a custom ROM, but you would lose the TouchWiz features.

There's this mod that I use called Ashaman where basically you use your custom recovery to remove not only carrier bloatware but system apps that you might not need as well. (svoice, swhatever, live wallpapers). But of course you have to be rooted but it's still perfectly safe. The developer of the mod is implementing a restore option of bloatware in the near future as well. You should check that out.

After searching the forums for this I think I am safe to ask for a list of what can be deleted and removed vs what cannot. I have my phone rooted, I have installed Titanium, no-bloat and Rom Tool Box but there are some processes and oddly named features that I have no idea what they do.
I know that there is an installer that has been installing everything back every time I reset.
Does anyone have a list of Rogers and Samsung bloatware that is safe to remove with the above software.
Cheers

[Q] best way to clean out att carrier junk on m9?

What is the best option to remove att junk from m9? I have disabled all I could.
Am I looking at unlocking bootloader and then load a custom rom? Or can I load a different ruu?
Thanks.

Might as well unlock, root, and flash some roms. Only reason I dropped the s6 already... If you want a bloat-free phone, there is only so much you can do out of the box.

There are a couple options, but I agree the best way is to unlock, Flash's custom recovery (TWRP beta) and install acustom ROM. My preference is ARHD because I prefer function and performance over flashy themes, but everyone likes something different.
The other option still requires unlocking and rooting, but you could use Titanium Backup (TiBu) to selectively remove the carrier apps. However, there's no guarantee you'll get everything, since many carriers load monitoring software that runs in the background. One of those apps is called Carrier IQ (CIQ), which is a terrible privacy risk. Most developers will dig that out to completely remove it, which is one more reason to go with a custom ROM.

I bought mine unlocked so I don't have any Bloat with any carrier. There's the typical HTC bloat but some are useful while others aren't. Still the phone is very fast.

No solution for perma-root, is custom rom still possible?

This may come off as a silly question but, I"m aware that AT&T and Verizon versions of the Note 4 there is no way to root it permanently but, even if you can temporary root it, is it still possible to install a custom rom? I'm in the process of downgrading from lollipop right now (I hate the new notifications) but just figure I'd ask.

without permanent root, no there is no way to flash a custom rom, if we get permanent then we can use flashfire or multisystem to flash custom roms (touchwiz only no CM or AOSP variants)

I have been wondering if it may be possible to eliminate all the bloatware from ATT and all bloatware from Samsung, by way of using the Kingroot process > then install Ti-Backup > then DELETE not freeze those applications.
Will such a thing work ? even if one may loose root after rebooting?
I there a possibility that that attempting something like that may cause a major crash on my phone?
In other words, I would like to be able to rid myself from all that bloatware that came with my out of the box N910-A i know about the disable feature on the apps manager, but i want those apps OUT.
Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer.
And I am STILL hoping for PERMA-root sometime in the near future

unfortunately no that wont work, if you delete or modify the system partition IN ANY WAY it will cause the DM_VERITY to kick in. until we get past the OS Verification and write protection we cant delete or modify anything.

many devices with locked bootloaders have custom roms, The S5 for instance. it's not the locked bootloader that is preventing custom roms it is the need for permanent root, once we have that we can use flashfire or multirom to flash custom touchwiz roms. what the locked bootloader prevents is the ability to flash custom kernels thus preventing roms based off of CM or AOSP/AOKP

Thank you for your Very fast and friendly reply. Have yourself a good day.

Disable write protection after root?

First, thanks so much to all you guys for helping me unlock the bootloader, flash twrp and root with chainfires supersu, I'm very grateful to the community.
I remember using kingoroot during KitKat times and being able to fully uninstall bloatware on my T-Mobile m8 after it rooted the system, which made my phone crazy fast. Now write protection is enabled after i have rooted my t mobile htc one m8 on marshmallow.
Is there any way to disable the write protection to fully get rid of Facebook and other unnecessary system apps, or should I be looking toward flashing a custom rom or another method? Oh, and I've disabled all the apps I don't like, but I'm not getting any sort of performance boost like i remember. I've seen a couple posts about disabling wp, but they were all for different carriers and older android os. Point in the right direction?
Thanks again!
