Pacman.apk in CM 7

I'm would assume it would be the game but it doesn't show up in the app drawer. So, does anyone know what it is? I haven't bothered to look at it cuz I'm lazy?

since your lazy just know its meant to be there
Pacman is the new gapps installer.
I always removed it before signing into google so it wouldn't nag me to download my apps from the market. I assumed it stood for "package manager" but I could be wrong.
My Evo + xda Premium App = This post.

CPU Speed in Notification Bar?

Is there a way or an app that displays the current CPU Mhz on the notification bar? (Kind of like SetCPU but on the notification bar, instead of within the app).
Looking one for just testing. Don't want any of those swiss-army-knife apps that include a million things though.
Display CPU frequency (and maybe option of displaying percentage instead) should be the only feature.
Search market for temp+CPU pro. There's an option to put a selected state on your status bar.

Thanks, the market has really been bogged down with keywords and meta tags and such.
Even with filters it's hard to find what your looking for lol.
Yeah it seems like you need to put in the exact app name for it to show up correctly. Kind of strange that the search function could use improvement in the Google android market..

I thought that i was the only one trying to find things. Just recently i was trying to find Shoot me in the market but forgot the actual name of it, took forever with keywords. Didn't come right up with screenshot, screen grabber, root screen, etc...

Remove City ID without root

This is from cougar618 over on the AndroidForums:
"Just realized that if you open up the City ID app, and stop trial, It will give you the option to remove it.
Thanks cougar618!

Good find. Now I'm curious if any other bundled apps have this feature.

This only removes the icon, the app is still installed on the phone.

Didn't realize that...
But it is less clutter in my drawer
I also use LauncherPro so I can "hide" all those apps I don't want, and now my drawer has no junk in it.

This app has a service that starts up when you reboot. Yes, it doesn't remove the app, but it stops it from starting up the service and it is no longer accessible from the app drawer. In fact, when I did this trick, the icon didn't immediately go away from the LP app drawer, and I tried accessing it again. It was no longer usable.
Even if it's not freed up from the device, it's essentially dead.
Brand new getting my first 10 posts in so THANKS to OP for this tip.
Thanks for this.
or you could just temp root and freeze it. lol that works too.

In the app drawer, select menu, show hidden apps, check the box and hit done. I found out about it myself, no need to open a thread about it

I couldn't find it either - it turns out that the "Show hidden applications" option is hidden.
Thanks for the help!
Hey, I couldn't see it either... This was driving me NUTZ... Was using the workaround of going to the Play store, viewing my installed apps, and starting the desired (hidden) app from there. Sheesh.... And YES, good thing you started a thread so it would be easily findable...
Solution-- on such menus, Samsung/Android need to have a scroll bar along edge to show how far menu goes... seriously. Simple solution.

I was having to use s voice! I'm no newb on this, but I didnt see the scrolling on the menu either until I did pages of googling. They are definitely lacking minute visual indicators in places.

I would love to help you, but help yourself first: ask a better question

Wow, thanks you guys. I was an idiot too, I had no idea you could scroll! When they updated to Jelly Bean, they added something to the menu and you have to scroll now, I didnt have to with Ice Cream Sandwich!!!!!!
Anyways, thanks a lot!

Unknown Icon in notification bar

Any Idea what this icon is? I have closed ALL running apps and this icon persists in the notification bar....Help?
Some sort of adware probably, installed when you installed something else. There is an app you can use to find what it is but I don't remember off hand what it's called

If it's adware it's Airpush. Download Airblocker or Airpush detector.

Notification Toggle
It looks very close to icon of the Notification Toggle app by j4velin
Do check if this is the case. The icon might have gotten themed/updated.
This icon is old...this is from GPS in older versions of android...
