Hey everyone,
Im a little new to the rooting thing, although i have done it before in previous phones. I have a Samsung Galaxy 10.5 S that I rooted using instructions posted on another thread. It worked great. What i want is the default Kernel in case i ever want to unroot (or something goes wrong) and go back to the regular stuff. Is there a link anyone could provide for me to access or find it?
Greatly Appreciated,
Peter L.
You don't need stock kernel (won't do anything with root) but easiest way is just use the "full unroot" function in the SuperSU app settings

Thanks Up, was not aware of that feature
When you get back from your trip any chance we can get some 10.5 kernel love? What are the chances of a simple debloated rom? I know all the theming etc is arduous but just something simple to get us started?

10.5 Kernel = maybe
10.5 ROM = very unlikely

I'm looking for a simple way to get rid of all the extra bloatware. I don't mind if I have to root and flash a "custom stock rom" to do so. I want to remain stock as possible what is the best solution for this?
BTW I already unlocked my phone don't know if that's going to be an issue.
Thank you XDA.
Clean rom for the win but any rom will do.

Have you gone in to the application settings and disabled the apps that you don't want to run? You can disable several of them there.
Yes, you can go to settings>application manager then tap on an application then click disable.
Only issues is that it still on you phone taking up precious space with useless crap. Custom ROM has many benefits:
1. No bloat
2. Multi-window (with any app)
3. WiFi tether
4. Many more useful toggles in notification area
5. Improved battery life
Root uninstaller. Works great

you can root your phone and install any custom rom. And custom whatever you like
I don't want to use a rom. I want to be most stock as possible.

Then do what "Osu777' mentioned above if you want to remain stock... use the "disable" function in the application manager.

Then you should wait for the Att OTA. Tmobile OTA is due 12/19/12. ATT should follow within the next 2 years. Att can be a little slow.

I've been using SAUROM rom for 2 weeks now and loving it!
Hey guys. Was wondering if anyone who is running stock NOT rooted has the option to disable the Samsung stock browser in the settings application manager. Thanks!
I'm able to disable mine but I'm running a custom ROM with a tweaked stock browser. Need input on stock ROM not rooted. Thanks!

install a different browser, like nova, or you have to be rooted, and freeze it.

Yeah whats up with that other guys post? lol...
Anyhow, thanks elflip88. Thats what i was running too and i am able to disable it. But i am asking because the developer of light flow is absolutely thrilled to know i have fixed this issue that he has been trying to fix for months. But the only way to implement this fix is by either deleting the stock browser or flashing it through recovery.
I am working on modding the apk further to allow for a regular install without root. That way people who aren't rooted can still benefit. However, if one is not able to disable the stock browser, and they install my modded one, they will have two "internets" in their app drawer xD So im hoping stock system allows one to disable the browser.
Im stock not rooted and I can't disable it. It shows the disable button but I can't click it

1) Nandroid
2) Flash stock rom
3) Check setting
4) Push custom recovery
5) Nandroid
Total time: 30 minutes
Just kidding...but I wouldn't at all be surprised if all of those views were from non-stock folks.

Lol thats way too much work to check one simple little thing lol. But i got my answers and that's what i was afraid of Stupid samsung.
Hi There,
a year ago i bought a S3 from T-mobil in the USA. Now i want to use it with a different carrier and called for an unlock the support for an unlock code. After 6 Times calling and more than 3 months waiting i now try to find another to unlock the phone.
My problem here is not that i can't find information, it's that is so much information.
So i got a t-999 S3 on 4.1.2
I want to get botherd by those tecnical things as less as possible, and don't need the root if it's not nessesary.
ALso i don't need all those T-mobil apps that are pre installed.
1. Option:
(easyist Option?) downgrade to 4.1.1 with odin and unlock with the servicemenu (UMTS-Debug...)
(where can i find the "stock" 4.1.1 and where the upgrade and afterwards can i normally upgrade?)
everybody says easy as pie but I'm not so sure)
2.Option:
a) Rooting the device and put with odin CF-Root-SGS v6.4 on it (it sounds like a generic s3 version without tmobil cr*p so maybe without the lock and the apps (if yes can i normally update afterwards?)
b)rooting it like in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=QPeIZZVYHbY and installing an unlock app?
(like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=761045)
c) rooting it with this wierd auto CF things
What do you thing is the best and cheapest way to to that.
(And maybe some help here ->noob)
Thank you for you time Gentleman
Downgrade modem

The best option since you want not root is to downgrade to 4.1.1 firmware which will also downgrade the modem, you will find the firmware in the development threads (stickied) after you downgrade you can do the service menu unlock.. As for the T-Mobile apps, they will stay there unless you root, or disable/hide them (no root needed for disabling or hiding)

There are some that will not let you disable them though, (usually the ones you want disabled the most!)
But I agree, if you really dont want to root, your best option is to flash the old firmware.

No theres actually a bunch you cant disable. Allshare apps, Google backup transport, Samsung map service, software update, sysscope, CIQ!, keyboard, and quite a few others.
The disable button is grayed out.

I apologize if this question is already been asked, what I'm asking to see if anyone has has found a way to get all apps for multitasking for the build number mc2. I have already Google searched plus I already made a search here on XDA and still found nothing. I will be highly appreciative if someone could help direct me in the right direction with a link on how and what to download to do it. I am also running a stock rom Odexed. Thank you in advance!!!

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:
http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/mobile-phones/how-to-hack-apps-into-multi-window-mode-on-galaxy-note-2-50011004/
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!

Okay, it's a stand alone mod that flashes S5 apps over your current S4 settings and apps. What recovery do you use? Did you wipe dalvik/cache? I'm assuming you didn't make a backup before attempting this? Of course not, well you could always flash a custom ROM over this to fix or flash a stock ROM. If you want the S5 settings(you obviously do since you attempted this) I suggest trying out Insane KitKat in the Android development section of the T-Mobile s4. The dev has given you a choice to flash his ROM with s5 settings and even some apps including the browser, download booster, the calculator, etc. Let me know what you end up doing.

So I just flashed the zip, wiped cache and still got a force close. I do not want to flash a rom because I have 3 gigabytes of space left, and soon I plan to do the jump program and get the htc m8. Is there any other tips you can possibly give. Thanks so far

You're device is rooted, you've already tripped your flash counter. This would be void through JUMP unless you go back to complete stock using one of the tutorials here on XDA. I'm glad you mentioned that because I am a employee for T-Mobile. When you bring in the device, we'd do a software check. It checks the build, baseband, kernel, and flash counter. So what you really need to do at this point is return to full stock
