Hi, first post on here. I have just recently rooted my phone and purchased Titanium backup. I want to freeze as many useless apps as possible. Can anyone provide a detailed list of apps safe to be frozen? I can provide screens of what is listed on my phone. Thanks.:laugh:
What I did was made a nandroid of my rom and backed up all apps with titanium then just started uninstalling apps one by one. And there is a debloat cwm script in development section that can automatically get rid of unwanted stuff

Thanks for the reply :victory:
I purchased Titanium backup Pro and with some of these roms having it installed as a system app, I can't seem to get the pro version to activate. Is there a trick to this? Should I just go into system apps and remove it? I can then get both from the market I think.
And a little bit later, answered my own question.
This worked.
Removed from System\App
Rebooted to recovery and cleared cache and dalvchic
installed both from market... Didn't work
uninstalled both
rebooted
installed both from market and now working.
Yup, you could just remove it, or use another app to move it from system to user

Didn't think of that. I wonder why I had to remove it a second time. Figured there was data stored that foe it confused.

I was restoring the apps with titanium. and i have to click install on every app, because I am using the free version of it.
During this process I press the home button and under notification I see the titanium restore is in process but looks like its stuck. I think its at the stage where it ask for the prompt and wait until you click on "install" button.
Is there anyway that allow me to bring that button to front using "bringToFront" app or some command that I can run in terminal?
I don't want to reboot the phone and start over again.
Anyone?

buy the pro version it will make your life easier dude!! and well yea that used to happen to me too and for some reason i bought the pro version and since it does it by itself i guess that solved the problem but since then i havent had any troubles with it...
Apps can get stuck sometimes when restoring. Best thing to do is kill/stop the process & manually install the stuck app. Worst case is try to install app w/o the data or you can reinstall via Play Store.

Hi,
I recently updated my Hercules T989 to Jellybean 4.1.2 via Kies. When I was on ICS, I could easily uninstall the t-mobile stock apps(or any other stock apps) using Titanium Backup Pro. But after upgrading to JB 4.1.2, I cant uninstall a single stock app. I tried updating Titanium backup pro from 4.1 to 4.5.6 but its still the same. It can freeze the apps but one app: 't-mobile accounts' unfreezes itself. I dont know how it happens. By the way, the device is rooted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Go into preferences and scroll down till you find Chuck Norris mode and make sure the box is ticked.. then they to uninstall the app.. other than that I don't know how to help. I have never had that problem with TB

I checked. The chuck Norris mode is on. I froze all the stock Bloatware using titanium backup. But this one app: 'T-mobile My Accounts' unfreezes itself. Still can't find any help, anywhere.

Did u do it in jellybean 4.1.2? As I said earlier, I could successfully uninstall/freeze all those stock apps using TB earlier when my phone was on ICS. This problem arose after I upgraded my firmware.

Are you sure Titanium Backup has root permissions? Check your Superuser app log and make sure they're being granted. You need root access for Titanium Backup to be able to remove/freeze system apps (like the built-in stuff).

Yes, I have rooted my phone after I upgraded the firmware through kies. I checked my root status using the app 'Root Checker Basic'. It says my phone as proper root access.

Yes, I have checked it. TB has been granted root permissions. TB successfully freezes all my system apps. But only one app - "T-Mobile My Accounts" unfreezes itself automatically after a while. I dont know how or why that happens. All my other system apps stay frozen except that one single app. And about uninstalling, none of the system apps can be uninstalled. When I run the batch operation to uninstall, it shows the progress bar but gets stuck at 0%. No progress at all.

my problem along with a screenshot
TB freezes all my stock apps. but as I mentioned earlier, one app - "T-Mobile My accounts" unfreezes itself after a while. And when I try uninstalling any stock apps, it just gets stuck. The progress bar doesnt move (show any progress). I am attaching a link to a screenshot about what happens.

Please if anyone has found the solution to this problem, I would be very very grateful.
PS. : As other members suggested, I have checked everything. The Chuck Norris mode is on. TB has root permissions. Everything seems to be in order.

I have just run into the same problem. T-Mobile My Account will unfreeze itself upon reboot. Any ideas? Would prefer not to uninstall.

Sounds like you are using a stock based ROM then. So you will have to live with that app. Otherwise you may cause problems by trying to delete or freeze it. Anybody that is determined to remove it, you can use a root based file explorer and delete the apk from the system/app folder. Backup the app somewhere by copying & pasting it in another folder, so you can replace it later if you start experiencing issues.
hello guys,
by mistakenly I moved my titanium backup pro as system app,
now when I try to move it back to sd card, its not moving..
it says unable to download
pls help...
had same problem, uninstall and install it from google play and it works
Is Titanium Backup working for the Note 3 yet? I backed up all my apps on the stock firmware right after I rooted it. They dont' restore though. I changed the location of the backup folder. Does TiBu need to be updated or is there something to help this issue? I searched the forums, but nothing mentioning it.

Oh wow, good to know this can be fixed. This has been driving me nuts since I got this thing yesterday, I had to manually re-install all my apps from the market & re-input all the data too
