I have recently flashed an I9000-based ROM to my Captivate (Cezar 2.2.1) and have come across a few apps that I would like to remove. They appear to be stock Samsung apps. Samsung Apps, Task Manager and Social Hub.
For those of you with the I9000: Are these safe to remove without causing any negative effect, force closes or errors? Or does the OS from the I9000 rely on these to function properly?
Thanks in advance!
you can delete apps which you dont like.. i have deleted press reader, social hub etc with titanium backup app..
samsung apps en task manager can be usefull, i dont delete this..

I mean the one from Samsung and preinstalled in Galaxy S.
Thanks!
I would also like to know if this is possible...
you have to modify your framework_res.apk and delete the task-manager button.
you have to search for "job_manager".
after success you can safely delete the taskmanager (via titanium backup) and thats all.
if i find some time i'll give it a try and maybe there will be a guide or so
So I deleted a bunch of Samsungs replacement apps and i'm now without contacts, clock, etc. - Where can I download the stock applications that Android 2.2 comes with? I tried googling a bit, without luck. :/
It's illegal to host them so you'll have to find them hosted somewhere other than XDA. I don't have a Galaxy S so I don't hae a proper link for you guys but someone else should.
I also suggest you make backups with titanium backup before you remove applications that are core to the ROM.
It's not the samsung stock apps i'm looking for, it's the AOSP apps - the original android applications Why should they be illegal to host?
Hi,
does anybody know how to remove stock apps without SGS tool?
Because some apps are not displayed in SGS tools, and I dont know how to switch to Advanced mod (I pressed menu button,but it showed me only EXIT window).
I have SGS tools v.4.1.6
Will I delete app when I delete it from System->app->... (via Room Explorer)??
I have also other stupid question - Is there some program for reorganizing icons in Menu drawner, something like in Iphone?
Thank you for answers...
Use System/Sock App Remover
Titanium backup in the market
From a phone
Is there some program to reorganize apps in drawner? for example,when i open drawner i want to be arrange in other order or in some "folders"...
Is it possible?
Just installed [AOKP]Galaxian-Soup[GT-7310/7300][r2.1][03.27.2012].
Wanted to get back some of the Samsung apps I had on stock, things like Allshare, Samsung Apps, etc.
Is it possible?
Bump........
I just flashed the ROM you mentioned, and it seems there is a conflict between samsung apps and the ROM (or all ICS ROMs?)
I tried restoring Polaris Office with Titanium Backup but the app FCs shortly after opening. I'll try restoring something else to see if it's a unique problem (I highly doubt it) or if most of the samsung apps have this problem.
Most Samsung apps (including Polaris) have libs in system/lib folder. Without those libs it surely doesn't work. Some apps have dependencies in other system libs and thats why they don't work on ICS.
Hello, i have some questions about the inbuilt apps in a rom.
1. There are always tons of useless apps in the roms, are there roms without apps? i mean why the hell is someone preinstalling facebook, twitter, google+ apps for me??? If i need them i can install them... :/
2. Can i remove the normal "browser" or will the phone get buggy then, couse who needs 2 browsers?
3. Why are so much Rom builders are using this ES filebrowser? I never saw a bad app like that.. it can't even tell me how much free space my sd card has..

1. you can just uninstall them by rooting your phone and use titanium backup to remove those useless application, there are no rom without any application installed if there is the phone will not work on how it supposedly work
2. yes you can use titanium backup but do nandroid backup just to be sure that you can back to phone normal state if there is a problem exist
3. for this i really don't know just wait and there's someone surely answer your questions more intelligently
Ah okay.. yeah well sure an android phone need apps to work, but its just that i had to remove them all again
about the browser... i also can freeze them - if i freeze an app it won't use any ram memory right? so i could just freeze the browser.. Apps that are not system relevant i really delete.. speak memo, twitter, google+, googlemail and so
I made a backup of my CM7 with titanbackup - how can i get some data out of the backup? like phone numbers that aren't synched with google - or whatsapp messages? The first time i did recover the whole CM7 was recovered
And is there a way to "cook" the rom myself? i hope its the same word like it was for nokia roms there you had a rom browser and could delete apps or add apps you wanted to install with the rom and that was called cooking.. So if i get a rom i would check what apps are in and could remove the .apk

Yes you can free ram if your browser keep running but you can force stop the browser in "manage application"
In backup i think you can extract it? Not so sure so we should wait for answer for this
I think the right word is compiling in android terms? Yes you can compile your own rom there's a some tutorial in development section

Ah okay.. i found the folder "apps" in the .zip with "system" apps - maybe the system apps that are not removeable without root and the normal.. can i just remove them and add others?
