Can u save that batch for every time use

U just select what u want to delete in the check boxes and then click start and it uninstalls them takes about 30secs tto check em off and a few mins tto run if its alot of apps. I usually debloat one at a time in tibu tho so I can backup the few I may want later before deleting, or sometimes ill just backup all the system apps in batch then do a batch uninstall

Without talk playstore won't work, removing stock MMS will break picture messaging even with a 3rd party app. Other stuff can be removed but those 2 in your list will break some functionality of the device

Another Option....

Lmao u guys crack me up . I remove some stuff from aosp/cm based roms that I don't use but mostly just stuff that actively runs in the background like tvout or other things that like to autostart. I only do it cuz if i don't use it I don't see a point in wasting ram/CPU and battery on it just chilling in the background for no good reason. But that list is mostly stuff alot of ppl use, or is required for full functionality

You can delete them from the zip with 7zip or a comparable program before installing, but like everyone is saying, there's not much benefit

Wonder when they changed it whenever I removed talk back in the day it would always break my Google accounts. Google must have done some changes in one of the more recent updates to talk which allows the accounts and sync to work without it.

On my evo everytime I would remove it I would get Google account sign in errors and the market would force close. I bet they changed it sometime around when market became play store, or maybe HTC set it up as a dependency in the framework. I don't remember if I ever tried removing it on CM but tried a few times on sense roms only to have to restore a namdroid >_<

[Q] New Facebook Update

Has anyone else downloaded the new Facebook update? I did and now I have additional icons (camera and messanger) that I can't get rid of. Also it keeps running in the background even after I stop it from running. Any ideas how to stop it from running in background and how to remove extra application icons? Thanks
Just uninstall the newest update. Idk how else to get rid of it but it doesn't bother me at all.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I don't like the new update because install unnecessary thing that I don't need nor use.
My suggestion is that you use the mobile browser version or use Fast Facebook (Beta)
The only bad thing about that is that it doesn't syn your contact pictures by default but you can use another app for that

It's not too bad but if this is going to be a trend for new apps, they should just make them separately and/or offer the option before installation if the user wants the said additional features or not.

Two frozen Google apps return

Two Google apps -- Play Books and Play Movies & TV -- keeping returning from the land of the frozen. I go back into TB Pro and refreeze, and within a couple of days at most they are back. All the other Google apps I've frozen remain so. Is there something else on the list I also need to freeze?
When I disable them in app manager they come back after a reboot as well. I think its tied to the play store or something that keeps activating them.

I checked on Play and on app manager for auto update option and don't see one. Odd that only these two are persistent despite freezing. I have the feeling there's another item on TB that needs freezing as well to fix this.
I got sick of this and since I do not want nor need them, I just deleted them

Ah, the more brutal approach. If that worked, and you have no regrets or issues as a result, that seems my only course of action as well.
Why you bother to freeze them or delete? It's part of former Google Market. Do.'t see benefit from deleting it. Can you share your thoughts?

Basically, I have four pages of icons under apps, and many of them are for services I have no interest in and will never use. I'm not trying to save space...I think there's 11 GB free, but I find the clutter off-putting.
Not sure I understand the part about Google Market. Play is just the same thing renamed, isn't it? Plus new look and feel.
Anyway, just de-cluttering the UI.
Yup it comes back now.. Use menu - > hide applications or you can stick them all in one folder and hide just that folder

I wonder this my self... But I use titanium backup it has its bugs sometimes but it works fine for me

Well I was hoping there was a free legal way to get it.... like taking a offer or a survey. Kinda like how akinator lite offer akinator pro to people who like their Facebook page or tell a certain amount of people about the app.... free doesn't always mean steal. Remember that

Did you leave the box checked that said sync with Google (OE something like that on the first boot)
And as far as tb goes give app to zip a try. Its a great app, and there is a free version that will do all you need. And the pro version is less than three dollars

Saving my apps to an sd card works for me. I also tend to modify roms via the android kitchen and while at it, place a few apps I need accessible prior to flashing (root explorer, etc).
Well, I've noticed that they don't restore all the time unless you use the same ROM. But even a stock rim misses the occasional app. Titanium Backup works great for me.

Remove your Google account, and just add it back for auto restore to work again.

Just a kick because if your apps don't start to auto restore and you want them to, simply go to Settings, Remove your Google account, and just add it back. Worked for me.

Removing stock apps?

Aye, and all the 'stock' apps can be uninstalled the ol' fashioned way.
I found out that you can disable an app by going into Settings, Apps, select the app, and then press Disable. I don't use GMail and got tired of seeing the icon. Seems to work the same as freezing an app.
Oh yeah I guess y'all are right. Sorry, just got back into android with the new nexus 7. Honestly I just don't like having anything on my devices I don't use.

If its a system app that can't be removed by just uninstalling it. Than they other option is to root and just delete it using a file manager like root explorer.
Pretty sure gmail and currents are play store apps so they should just be able to be uninstalled.

T-Mobile knows more than you think...

Got a notification today telling me my device health was good, and I had to check performance and this popped up:
I rooted 2 days ago and stayed stock. Anyone know how they know this?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
When your phone is rooted, it knows, and so do the apps. That's why you cannot install isis wallet if your phone is rooted. In the about section in settings, it says if the device is rooted. If it says modified then it is rooted and any app can probably see that. Doesn't mean that tmobile knows it is, but the app does, and it may, or may not report this back to them.

Actually, you granted them access by accepting the permissions. Thats why i read that stuff. And being a developer, i can usually figure out what actions fall under the required permissions too.

They went commercial, now are a official corporation. They are looking to make that money, eventually. With features like a CM account, privacy guard, secure messaging they were getting ready for it. None of those are attractive though.

it seems more likely the purchase fees will be for the added features. Allcast is the perfect example. It's a CM app on the app store that has a time limit unless you pay money. That's their future. I can easily imagine a CM rom that is basically AOSP, and a collection of appstore apps that you have to pay money for to get the "Full CM experience". Of course, if you buy a CM phone (like the oppo n1), you'd get all those for free.
Or they just collect your data and sell it on their own kinda like Google
