the new update came with an app called "together" but it makes me depressed every time I look at it, I don't want to make a cable for rooting. If I can't remove it hide it i just might have to get rid of the watch

Most of the root-friendly APKs I've tried don't allow you to pin videos (ie save them to your device). I started using "temp root remover" from the market instead. It basically makes your phone look unrooted, allowing the video app to run like normal.
I like it because I just use Google video from the market and i can get all of the features from it. It is only a minor annoyance to run the root remover first- not really a big deal for me. Root remover doesn't require a reboot or anything so it's quick.
Anyway, it is another option.

Done. But no use. 2 more screenshots..
I have had the same annoying pop-up ads that looked like this "your Android memory is too low,please clean it up" or something like that,when I pressed "OK" button I just was redirected to "Du Booster" app. So Ad-blocking app is your friend,and for me the best is Adaway.:good:
I had these starting yesterday. I just had to restore my phone to a backup in the end. I got rid of lots of apps and the aware ones didn't find anything

adblock plus is what i use and it works perfectly.
Adblock Adaway or the xposed mod minminguard. As long as you are rooted they should all stop the adds and pop ups

If you are not rooted the only option is to uninstall the app which is giving you the pop up. I don't know of any pop up blocker that doesn't require root

Yes... I am trying to do the same .. but unable to find the app that is causing it .. most of my apps installed are from reviews from top Android forums and few games only.
I have uninstalled almost 10 apps in suspicion .. but still can't trace the culprit.
Hurray... Finally got hold of the culprit.
It was named com.scloud.... (Didn't remember the full name)
Initially thought it was system app but when going thru all suspicious names found that there is an option to uninstall which is not available for sys apps.
After I installing it alk these ads are gone.

Hi all. I'm wanting to remove some of the apps from my Nexus 7 (2013). It is rooted and using the stock 4.2.2 KitKat ROM.
Can anyone tell me which apps are safe for removal and which ones aren't, as well as the best way to go about it?
I don't need things like some of the Google apps but I've had bad experiences with previous Android devices when I've just started deleting things
Many thanks all!

Why not just disable them in stock settings app (or freeze them with Titanium Backup)? They don't take up very much space. That way, if something starts going wrong, you can just unfreeze them. Plus, if you ever want to upgrade using the OTA method down the road, it will fail everytime since you've have deleted them, and you'd have to reflash the stock system before flashing the OTA. That being said, I have attached a screenshot of the apps I've disable, and I have seen no ill effects on my N7.

The other day I woke up to my phone having a Samsung notification saying Fitness With Gear successfully updated. I've never had that app to begin with so how can it get updated?! Anyways I ignored it since the Samsung app store didn't give me an option to uninstall it and just let it be. Well just now I noticed my lookout was being weird scanning new stuff I never heard of and found it installed 4 more apps called Gear Fit Manager, Gear Fit Installer, Samsung Billing and WeatherProvider. Any clues guys?

Never seen that Ray, do you have a Gear watch? Maybe with syncing them together it automatically installed them?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk
No I don't have one. The description on those apps say they're for the the new watches that aren't out yet. Gear 2, Gear 2 Neo and Gear Fit.. I got the Fitness With Gear pushed to my phone by the Samsung App store than it began installing other Samsung stuff. But that GearFitInstaller keeps updating itself every half hour for no reason. I always catch my lookout going off scanning it saying it's safe.

Yes almost everyone who has opened the Samsung app store has got pushed the gear manager and most those apps. They don't even know it. It's not in app drawer. Go to settings -application manager- all apps and you will see the apps

I didn't open the Samsung app store but I did have it set up to auto update my apps when on Wi-Fi. Didn't think they will have the nerve to push stuff that's not installed as an update. Also you can find two of them on your app drawer. Fitness With Gear and Gear Fit Manager.

The same thing is happening to my Galaxy S4. I tried uninstalling the GearFitInstaller, but it just keeps reinstalling. Now I've turned off "Auto update apps" in the Samsung Apps store. Hopefully that will get rid of this nuisance.

That's exactly what you have to do as well as the following: Go into your phone settings-applications and find the apps you want gone. First you must uninstall the updates for the app then clear cache/data... then uninstall the app. Reapeat this for any app you don't want. And then make sure you go into Samsung Apps and set it to NOT automatically install updates. Done.

If the apps are free, you should be able to find them on 1mobile.com.

Will the app install? I've got one for you, see if you can get the walmart app to install (and work on your phone). There are several others I've managed to install, but they won't run or just go to a blank screen. Other examples I've installed but they don't seem to run are Dominos app (love ordering pizza) and Flipp (the most awesome weekly sales flyer app).
Thanks I'll try the 1mobile, error I usually get is like not compatible with your device.
