thxx for the tip, but i can t shift it, buttun is unactive :/
this is weird, it must surely be somewhere

You can back up it
You can use Android assistant to back up it and have it on your memory card as it appears doesn't support moving to sd

this is what i would liek to understand:
when you buy an app, before it get installed, it has to be downloaded,and then stored. I though it was done in /data/app but it seems that not all app are stored there by default obviously.
where else can it be?

uninstallable system apps located at system/app

[LOOKING FOR APP] Only enable media scanning on selected folders

Hi!
Dedicate Android media scanning only to selected folders, for example "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd/Music/"... is there an app for that?
greetings
Good idea, we need such a thing. Scanning of large space is really a long lasting thing.
I looked once on the market and found something like that, but i don;t remember the name. I use the .nomedia method. In each folder you want to be avoided scan, create an empty file with the name .nomedia; that's all
Just create a file named ".nomedia" in the folders you want to skip ;-)

I removed mine completely, and have for the past few roms I flashed. I prefer to use AntTek App Manager Root for my freezing and removing needs...

I guess this question is sort of related to this so I'll ask it here. In Gallery is there any way that anyone knows of to NOT display every single folder that has an image in it? It's a little annoying going to the gallery and having folders for music album folders, certain apps, themes etc. I just want to see what in my DCIM folder and sub folders

In the folder you wish to hide, create a .nomedia file in it. That will hide the folder from appearing in gallery.
So I have root explorer, but where do I go to to delete Gallery?

I do that and it tells me,
"Gallery3D.apk cannot be deleted because the files system is read only."
I am running Random Rom Osprey, with EG22.

Awesome! Thanks so much for the help! I feel so empowered that I can now delete anything off my phone.

Love the phone, but

Do you agree that there is too much stuff pre-installed? And yes I am aware that this is fairly common ..

Isn't the bloatware uninstallable?
Some, but not all of the bloatware can be uninstalled. But you can set up folders in the app screen now and move all the uninstallable bloatware shortcuts there and tucked out of the way. Of course, if the mere idea that there's bloatware on the phone bothers you that much, you're going to have to root.
thanks for the folders tip, must be new to TW3.0
folders in the app screen???????

Open your app tray. Hit menu>edit. Then just drag and drop apps into the new folder box. It will then just create one icon called folder with all the apps you put in it.
cool thanks. Now I gotta figure out how to reorder the apps alphabetically in each folder

[Q]App Replacement

I've looked up how to replace system apps and read multiple guides, but I haven't found what I'm looking for specifically. I want to remove the stock Google apps and replace them with alternatives. For example, I want quickpic instead of the gallery.
I've rooted my phone making it writable. I've flashed my phone enough times to know I need to read. I'm currently running Reloaded .500 RLS.
I've moved the quickpic apk to /system/app and changed the permissions and then I moved the gallery to /data/app and uninstalled it, but when I reboot the app is installed but force closes upon opening. What should I do? Also, should I change the name of the apk to the system app for association purposes because I want the replacement apps to be associated with the functions off the Google apps. Like when in messages when I click on "attach" I want to be able to click "picture from camera" which I can't right now even though I renamed the replacement app Camera.apk. Definitely need some help. Tia!

Get Titanium Backup from the market, uninstall the system apps and install your apps choosing "integrate into rom" or something similar

All In One App.

Hell guys I was just searching around and found this SD Box app its a nice app that gives you battery info, mobile traffic, Do No Disturb, App Lock where you can set password to the apps you want, also have a Task Killer, you can Uninstall apps, Move apps to SD card, and also clean the system.
Unlike the newer phones on the market that comes with some of the following apps already installed; if yours doesn't have any installed and you are just tired of installing each app for certain work, then this is the app for you. Its totally free, you can click on the link below to download it from the Play Store.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zdworks.android.toolbox&hl=en
I DIDN'T CREATE THE APP JUST THOUGHT IT WAS AWESOME, SO ALL RIGHTS GO TO THE RESPECTIVE OWNERS. BUT IF YOU LIKE IT, I WOULDNT MIND A THANK :good:
