[Q] Effects of disabling Gmail from running Applications and How To? - LG Optimus 2x

Hi All,
Is there a way to disable the Gmail app from running? I dont really use it and I was wondering how to disable it?
Any potential impact to the o2x by disabling the gmail? Thanks all in advanced

Just freeze it with titanium backup or bloat freezer or move/delete the apk using root Explorer for exp. Its just an app man nothins gonna happen

I uninstall all email/gmail stuff and have no problems. I buse titanium backup to remove them, but you could freeze the apps to be safe.

Best way to delete apps

Ive been adding a deleteing alot of apps since I got my phone. The usual "new toy" deal.
What the best way to actualy delete them. Ive been going through setting>apps>manage>unistall
When I got to the monitor it says my memory is only 23% free. Is this normal, or am I looking at the wrong thing? Is there anyway to install apps on the added microsd card?
Sorry if such a newb question.
Download titanium backup from the market, or uninstaller. Uninstaller gets rid of all apps you've installed and titanium backup can get rid of the other miscellaneous odds and ends.

hold down the app icon of the app you want to remove and move it down to the little trashcan that pops up but don't let it go wait until it says uninstall and then let it go. this will take you directly to the uninstall screen for the app. no need to install any other apps. hope this helps.
So, as far as your memory percentage goes, don't give it too much worry. I don't recommend any task "killer" apps to solve that though, they aren't good for you phone. A task "manager" app would be okay to use. You could also try unchecking the box to sign into Gtalk automatically (Find that in the Gtalk settings) or just not using so many apps at once.
The two posts above forgot to mention a few things. Titanium Backup requires root access. There's an app in the Market called OCLF (One Click Lag Fix) that can help you easily obtain this. If you use Titanium Backup, you can also remove some AT&T bloatware that comes with your phone, only if you want, of course.
ADW.Launcher will allow you to drag an app icon over the trash can that pops up after you long press on one. Just hold it over for a few seconds and it will ask if you want to uninstall it.
So, there are plenty of easy, free ways to help you out!

I'm having a hard time understanding you. If you don't want the apps running, root and remove/freeze them.
As LeJay said, root your device and remove the apps from /system/app/ or freeze (kind of disabling it) them with an app like Titanium Backup.
Also certain apps are required by the LG framework and can't be removed or frozen. They remain in memory and come back after you kill them. There are threads to be found about which app you can remove /freeze and which not.

How do you uninstall stock applications???

Like the title says. How do you uninstall stock applications on the Thrill?? For example...I want to use GO SMS or Handcent...so I want to uninstall the stock messaging application. How would I go about doing that?
You first need to acquire root. Then you have a couple options.
I personally just remove the apps I don't want from ROM zip. I heard there is some GUI that does this for you, but its not hard to delete a couple files.. Located in /data/app or /system/app
After that, sign your zip and flash away.
Or you could download a program from the market and 'freeze' the application. It basically remove it but keeps a hard copy as a backup. I don't know the name of the app, but a simple search will tell you.

There's an app called "NoBloatFree" in the market. It requires root, and will backup anything you wish to disable/delete, just in case.
If you freeze or remove the phones native messaging app you will not receive any new text messages. I tried and that's what happened.

Certain system apps like messaging should not be frozen or removed as they may cause unwanted consequences. There's some third party launchers (I know LauncherPro does it for sure) that will allow you to hide apps from showing up in your app drawer.

Follow above methods for removing system apps. For the record you CAN remove the stock mms.apk and run gosms with no problems at all. I have deleted the stock mms.apk and use gosms and it handles sms and mms just fine. Handcent however can't handle mms without the stock messaging app but it will do sms just fine without it.

some apps just turn on by itself. some apps will eventually close itself after a period of time,thats android. the best way to prevent that is by freezing the apps when u dont use them. u can freeze an app using titanium backup pro or another app called antek,if im not mistaken...
what exactly freeze means? for example if i freeze yahoo messenger so that it wont start at startup, will i be able to use it without defrosting it?
Mate best way is to use an application called autostarts
For system apps, use App Quarantine
For user apps, use AutoKiller

TB is the way to go. Freeze all the bloat. Don't freeze MyMagazine if you use the "Email" app, apparently doing that breaks the default email app (but not gmail).
Most of the bloatware apps are considered "system" apps and the app manager won't let you remove them.
