Think I remember reading that you did not initially remove any Chinese apps but put them in a folder titled not used (or something like that). Still the same today?

Interesting, especially as your video showing use of third party launchers proved successful. Doesn't seem to fit with the experience of some others. Looking forward to playing with mine from Wonda next week
What launcher you running?

I ran it but I mistakenly let it associate a Amazon paid app to the Market. Anyway to undo?
Found the fix.

What is it, please?
Sent from my, "I don't know what I am any more after all this flashing!"
Sorry I had not provided the answer.
Too [email protected] simple. At the update portion of the market using the droid. If you try to update it fails. But, it gives you the option to delete the app, it deletes the market association in the phone but not the app. App is still usable.
As to why I did not provide an answer is very small of me and I should not have done it. I had asked for help(s) before and got lots of looks but no help. Like this one they laid dormant. Figured I would post it was fixed.
Cool! Thanks. I've had the same issue. Appreciate it, and no apology necessary. I've had similar situations. Some people just don't feel the issues require attention. No biggie, thanks again.

Well it came back today so apparently that was not a fix.

Have you tried the "detach from market" option in TB Pro?

Well...no. Did not know that existed and a search in the wiki did not reveal that or I missed it.
But I do have the Pro version and with some in depth looking found it. Seems to work
Thank you!

No problem.
Just long-press the app in question, and the detach option is there. For future reference, in case anyone else runs into this problem.
^ Needs TB *PRO* to do this, though.
So my niece is using to much data data and although I can easily just shut it off I'd rather get to the root of the problem. Are there any apps that allow me to see what they download that take a running tally of what access data and also maybe how much ?
She says it's just doing reading homework for school and APUSH notes... that doesn't use 3 gig in 2 weeks.
Any idea of something anyone has heard of or tried ? It's an Atrix HD and not rooted and I'd rather not root since I have no desire to mess with Motorola stuff . I know I'm in the GS3 area but this is where I hang out haha.
Thank you !

Ended up being stupid Facebook... 2 GB in 7 days of background activity. Used the app and set it up easy to let her known and restrict background data.

It's possible, I found 1 called "Block it" seems to work, I did find that it was slowing down some of my apps though, the only noticeable 1 is Facebook
Block it available in the app store?

Bad reviews are from those who didn't realize they had to set it up and not just install it. It's NOT great but it works.. I notice today using Tunein Radio that it wouldn't start until I turned blockit off.
Frankly I'll be happier with root then I can go back to my better ad blockers.

You ever try adblock-plus? And what do you mean it's not that great, what's bad about it?

How do you set it up to get it working properly? I'm very used to AdAways simplicity lol.
Im using Firefox with adblock plus mod. Works great.
Maybe cause this is my first LG, but usually when I owned Sammys I would go to system/app to find everything there (processes every single app) and it only shows me limited apps and NO processes. TiBu seems to mess up when I delete from there.
Did you also check system/priv-app?

It's not a secret that Samsungs bloatware/servicess amount is hazardously bigger than LGs
I wouldn't post this if i was not for sure. I thought i was going crazy once i seen there was a new beta version out and installed it, version 5.0.3. I missed having Adaway enough that i would install it without root just to see the icon and to click around in it from time to time............not weird at all, i know
It even works for apps!......Download 'Ad Boom' from the Play Store and see for yourself

Apparently its no secrect, people are there talking about it but i'm so glad it works without root that i'm spreading the word. And because i didn't find it here, i just came across it on web.
Yes, thanks to vpn based adblock solution
No crazy at all, it works great and no need to root any more

Wooo......slow down there buddy ?. There is always reasons to root. If only to change the bootanimation or to simply stop seeing "Permission Denied". I use Termux a lot and i will get "Permission Denied" for various reasons. It's nice being able to type "su" and seeing $ go to # then typing in that same command and it doesn't hesitate because now your the boss.
Change my mind ?
Yes, I do have an unrootable Note 10, lol (long story). Means nothing, I stand firm
I call OK crazy because sure as he'll it does not work non rooted
