Exactly what you want.

perfect. gonnna try that. thank you

Or run NostalgiaTurboSlim script (in my sig). It removes all nonessential apps.

Or just disable the AT&T apps and forget about rooting and ROMs. It's built-in to ICS.

Disable not the same as un-install. That will remove them from the apps list, and un install any updates.

I'm using wanam's rom and it is great. It has a couple of the ATT and Samsung apps but gets rid of most of the offenders.

I'd love to do this, but being a novice at best at using Android, how do I go about removing/uninstalling apps that were baked in to the ROM?

I'm making a new rom, so what apps do you prefer to be included in a rom?

I agree all of them are good, buit dont fill the rom up with apps but Titanium backup, rom manager and some kind of file explorer would be very handy.
Just a tip, i think this thread is more 'general' than development
The best launcher is Sense Ui lancher. Fastest of all

Hm, true...
In which case:
ES file explorer as the file explorer, Super Manager as the root explorer, LP as the launcher.

PLEASE MODS, MOVE TO GENERAL
Zeam Launcher, delete any other launcher! MUST DELETE NOW!!!
AdFree
SD-Booster
SetCPU
and also, make sure its based on 2.3.4
I think devs aren't allowed to include SetCPU in roms, because it's a paid app...

yeah!
I believe there's a same question thread is going on or it's a similar one.
But I'll answer you:
3G Watchdog and APNDroid.
Ghost Commander.
AdFree Android, Busybox, Rom Manager and Titanium Backup
Voice Search.
Updated versions of Google/HTC apps.
Live Wallpapers.
Flash 10.3 (I don't know if its possible) and Air.
Flash and air dont support arm v6 but flash lite from the stock roms wouldnt hurt

Installing flash. If it will harm my phone I won't do, if it will harm my current ROM I will take a Titanium Backup. So do you think its harmful?
It's not harmful per se, but, its totally pointless.
I think Launcher Pro is the best launcher!
Things to be included in a rom that I could use:
- Sense dialer/contacts/friendstream
- Flash lite
- DSP Manager
- OC kernel
- JIT enabled
- batt for at least 48h
All other things doesnt matter, since you can install in any rom.

[Q] Is there a way to enable call recording in stock ROM?

Hello there,
I have a rooted t999, unlocked. After going through multiple posts on this forum, I have realized that to enable the call recording feature on your samsung galaxy s3 t999, you got to install a custom ROM.
But, is there any way to update a .apk (or any other method) , compatible with the stock ROM on t999 which might enable the call recording feature back?
Cheers!

Thank you guys! But all in all, it seems you have custom ROMs on your phones. I had searched the forums and had come across a phone.apk that seemed to be the answer. Now, I am not able to trace it.
Does anyone know about the phone.apk on the stock rom with the recording option?

Here is the one from FreeGS3 r6.
This is NOT my work!
This the stock UVALG1 Dialer app modded by uoY_redruM, dev for the FreeGS3 rom. All thanks and credit goes to him!
(Try out his rom, btw. It is awesome!)
This should work on any stock based rom though.
I'm pretty sure this is where the mod is included. Not sure right now if its dependant on another modded apk as well. Heading to work so will check later if this doesn't work by itself.

So will this not work on custom ROMs?
Its the samsung dialer so itll only work on stock based roms.
It'll likely be dependant on other parts of the touchwiz framework and is integrated along with contacts and such.
You can try it but I would be extremely surprised if it worked on anything like CM or ASOP.

That, I do not know. I don't use wifi calling so can't test for you either. I think that it would work, but you may just have to give it a test run to find out. If you do, report back as im curious about it myself now that you brought it up!

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Wait, sorry I shoulda been specific I guess! I don't think you can install like a normal app.
Use root explorer and copy the original from /system/app for your backup.
Pay attention to the permissions it has and copy the modded one over the old. Change permissions to what they were before. Reboot into recovery and clear cache and dalvik, then reboot system.
Test.

Thanks a lot Doc!
This is quite interesting! Although I have root explorer, I am terrible with the android stuff and so I am worried about replacing this apk with the existing phone.apk. (its the lack of "recovery" knowledge that scares me to go ahead)
Has anyone of you experts made the dialer work so far through this integration of FreeGS3 phone.apk on the stock ROM?
Cheers!
Another thing that I just figured - In my stock ROM, I do not have a phone.apk (attaching screenshot)
Which app should be backed up? I am guessing that the GS3 apk should be renamed as the stock ROM apk. correct?
http://db.tt/t7Ig4rsG
Edit 2:
guys, just figured out that there is actually an .apk called SecPhone_TMO.apk (kept searching for phone.apk )
so, please ignore the screenshot above!
although, will wait for someone to try replacing the stock ROM .apk with the GS3.
Worked perfect on Wicked's ROM. Have to move the stock phone APK out of the system\app directory and replace it with Doc's. Make sure to put the phone in airplane mode first.
Question - where are the recordings stored?
Thanks for the awesome mod!
They are stored at /sdcard/sounds/
Thank uoy_redrum at the freegs3 thread. Its his work not mine.
.....hope he didn't mind me sharing it like this. Shoulda asked first.
Ill check with him to be sure though.
You guys should try his rom. He's an outstanding dev and very helpful!

I wouldn't worry much about it. Especially if you make a copy of the original file as a backup on extSDcard.
Titanium backup works really well too.
Biggest thing to remember is the permissions.
If you can boot into recovery, wiping cache is no big deal at all. Wiping dalvik isn't bad either. When you reboot it'll rebuild dalvik but will use the new app you copied into system.
ALWAYS MAKE A NANDROID BEFORE ANYTHING!!!
That's the most important yhing you can do when messing with anything. It basically creates an exact image/snapshot of your current setup so you can go back to it at anytime.
Nandroid = Peace of Mind!

Multiwindow Mod

Is there any mod (MOD ONLY, not a ROM) for multiwindow?
I'm running pure stock 4.1.2 OTA rom and all it has is root access.
I don't want to install any new roms because I'm very satisfied with the stock rom.
Is there any mod that'll grant full multiwindow app access?

[Q] I'm rooted, now what?

So I just rooted my Nexus 7. I am not interested in changing the ROM, unless I really should, since I really like the Stock ROM. What are some good things to do while rooted?
A side note: I called Google before I did the procedure and they said unlocking the bootloader would not void the warranty. So, that is interesting.
... now you search and find cool things to do with your rooted tablet.
I'll toss you a breadcrumb though- Xposed. The rest is up to you.

Second that - once you've fiddled with a decent number of Xposed mods, there is no turning back :laugh: :good:
I'll toss you three other subjects related to Xposed - MoDaCo, GravityBox and App Settings You'll come a long way with those!
Also, the first things I install after updating firmware are ROM Toolbox, Root Explorer and Xposed. Then you can do anything!

Install busybox once you rooted, if the root process did not install it.
I have a version of busybox (1.21.1) compiled using the android-ndk
As some of the google search pages do not tell you, that if you don't use the ndk it breaks busybox's wget, traceroute, ping etc.
I know their are apps to install busybox, but they want a "donation" which usually I don't mind doing, but not for something I can compile on my own.
