[Q] Delete apps like google maps?

Hello I was just wondering if I can delete the google maps and apps like dropbox, tuneinradio, pdf viewer using the root explorer? Did anyone try it out? Will the system function properly?
Should not be a problem as those are actually user apps that placed in system. Most custom ROMs put those in data/app.
Why do you want to remove them ? You also can disable them in settings-apps-all
click disable button and they won't run.

I want to delete these apps because they keep on running in background and I never use these apps at all. I don't need navigation. Disabling them would not help because as soon as i restart my phone, they will run. Are you sure that deleting them from the system, wont make the phone reboot or anything

Your clock and weather use maps for your location. I wouldn't delete that. It doesn't draw much juice anyway. Drop box is fine to delete.

No, it will not make the phone reboot or anything. You can copy those you're going to delete to your sdcard in case you need them again.
Or you can rename them to something else, like change the .apk to .bak and it will not run. When you need them again just simply rename .bak to .apk again.
Removing Maps has no effect on your weather & clock as those use system file HtcLocationService.apk. I have Maps removed in my ROM too as I don't use Google Maps.
I used titanium backup to uninstall a lot of the crap it comes with. I didnt remove maps but all the twitter apps had to go... theres about 5 items to do with twitter lol

[Help]Apps form SD are unloadable(unreachable)

Hello to all!
At last few days, my phone start bugging.. First and biggest problem is that, all apps from SD card are unreachable( cant be loaded, but they are installed).. Also, other files are available on SD card.. Can preview pics, listen music, etc.. Also, few days before this problem, phone didnt open any pic and failed to load any video.. I dont know what I did, but that problem is gone..
Phone is rooted, and worked fine till now..
I must notice that this is happen after SD defragmentation.. Maybe I'm wrong, but that is last app I installed before problem..
Please, give me some options becouse I have alot apps installed and moved to SD.
Ty for any suggestions, all are welcome!
If you have apks than try to install them again.
If you don't have apks
Than u can find your installed apks here
just open any file manager
Go to
MNT>ASEC
just copy them
To sdcard and reinstall
we all should be polite enough to press thanks for anyone who helped US.
Your SD card has gone kaput. Try scan and fix through Windows. If it fixed, even then you may have to install apps again.
Ahh, ty guys..
I have apps on application menager, but icon is like unmounted SD card..
Also, I tried to defrag by PC, scan with NOD32, and nothing..
I have good progress in games, so it would be a pity to play them again.. Btw, if that is only way, I dont have to choose..
Feel free to give me some more recommendations..:good:
Guys, if someone can post me some good file menager with which I can see and "backup" list of apps and apps.. I have installed Kies, but they dont have ability for that..

Mi File Manager will do the trick fro you. All you need is root on your phone.

Again, try saving the game folder on your PC and restoring after fresh install. It should work.
I tried today Mi File Explorer, and in APKs, I dont have all installed games.. Only few... Maybe I need to setup something?
Mi File Explorer shows the APK installer file and not the installed APKs. So if you need to backup your installed APK, then installed Airdroid first and then from web interface, select the games files you need to backup and you're done.
I tried to connect to Airdroid, but still no apps.. There are not on System apps too..
I also tried to format MMS, but nothing...
Ok, I downloaded a Root Browser Lite and in phone memory(I think, its first what I see when I open the app) in folder Data>data, I found app folders.. U can see in attachments.. What should I do now?

[Q] How to install back factory app?

Dear Forum members!
Today I wanted to modify the smiles in the Mms.apk system app..
when i Copied back and tried to isntall, my phone started to reboot and not come back... (I know of course I mistake
From ADB I fixed my phone but just a half success, I copyed back the original Mms.apk and changed the permissions to 644, my phone boots up normally, but I still can't install the apk.. if i try to isntall from system/app it says: Replace app.. (I dont see in any list to be installed) If I press Ok, starting to install, then says: X App not installed. In downloaded apps I see messaging with 0 kilobytes, i can remove. After this if i try to install from system/apps it dont want to replace but the same thing happens... (X App not installed) Another interesting thing. On my Sd folder I still have a copy of Mms.apk, if I enter into this directory withy any file explorer, its quit I have ftp server where i can rename to mms.app -for example. In this case the explorers are not quit But I have no chance to install like user and not like root?..
Of course i have rooted my phone and it works.
Is someone have any idea?
thanks: Karoly
Please help me
I installed to my phone a catlog to read out what happens durring the installation.. I see in the log there is no odex file in the mms.apk ... Is someone can suggest me a solution to install back my factory mms application? I really don't want to reinstall my system because of this problem. Currently I use the latest android update 4.1.2. I have too much settings and apps on the phone :S
Thank you in advance.

If your on a stock Google ROM (Yakju?) you should be able to download the factory image and fastboot flash just the system.img & your apps & data should be fine.
Hi. Thanks your answer.
I tried to flash only the system yesterday, wipe caches and fix permissions, my datas remained, but the mms app still not works.. nothing changed. Is it possible maybe to install this apk from recovery (cwm) mode?
Im sure if i reflash everything will work but i dont want to lose my apps, so i'd like to fight for it if its possible

[Q] Move apps to SD on stock KK ROM

I love playing games on my s4 mini, i've used lollipop till' now but i like the Touchwiz UI and i wanna go back on offical kitkat again. But i noticed that when i move a game to sd card ( ex : Dead Trigger 2 ) It only moves 50 MB to SD and remaining 400 MB are still on the phone. Can anyone help me with this issue ?
The app you need is FolderMount. Search about it and you will get what you need
You can also try GL to SD as Folder Mount doesnt work for me again.

U need to install this app from play store. ::: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount&hl=en
When u start the app for the 1st time and grant root access it prompts to fix a storage related issue. Choose yes. Then u can move parts of apps onto sd card.
But if u want to move large games... then u need to install xposed framework and ObbOnSD module. Here is a video on XDA-TV that will help you...
