[Q] How to uninstall Pulse News app? - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I mean the apk from Alfonso Labs.
As per title, for the life of me cannot unistall it, the option is greyed out.

you have to be rooted to do this , using app from the market to uninstall apps from the market . or maybe there is no need for root , u look for the market for this kinda of apps, .

Thanks for the superfast reply.
I am rooted
tried:
1) easy uninstall
2) fast uninstall
3) root app remover.
Pulse doesn't even show up!

this is wired ... if you can see it on your Applications ...
go root explorer ... system\app , look for the name of the app ... delete this sucky ... if you can't delete it by root explorer .. its mean the app has MAGIC

Thanks, that did it.
It's a great app indeed, but c'mon! What's with refusing to be removed?!?

If its in system/app then you can't uninstall it. People would be able to uninstall their framework and ither vital things needed to keep the Tab alive

I too would like to know the answer to this.

If you are rooted you can also use Titanium Backup to remove Pulse.

link2sd also works if you want to remove apps..worked to remove pulse news on my galaxy tab 10.1 and GT-B5512

It is a nice app.....good find and thanks for sharing.
Thanks. I feel better now that I have a reply to my post. lawl.
Someone else actually posted it last night in the Phoenix 7.0 thread.
This works great on Serendipity 6.2. I just dropped the apk in system/app with Root Explorer.
I just had to add my location manually and then restart the widget to get it to show up.
Root Explorer looks like it copies the app but it dont show in the sys\app folder no matter what I do. It is set to R/W Thanks for any help.
Good find. Installed in and works perfectly.

What ROM are you using? Will it allow "side loading" or "Non-Market" apps?

[Q] Is It Dangerous ??

I've downloaded cm 7.2 RC4..
I open that rom, and deleted some applications that I think I don't need it, like :
- android keyboard (i replace with samsung keyboard)
- adw launcher (replace with GO Launcher EX)
- androdian and cyanbread (I don't really like that theme)
- BMKG
- browser
- car Home
- global Time
- gallery3D ----> i think you know why i remove this apps, if you use cm7
- pro tips
- all stock cm7 live wallpaper
- and other
and then I flash it..
it's works well..
Is it dangerous if I do that?
whether it will cause the FC if I install some applications?
sorry i have bad English

NO for me. uninstall Musice app and install google music. file manager and install astro.
but better flash rom then remove your unwanted apps with titanum backup and before backup that app.
ok
i do that, but when i want fresh rom, i must install titanium (again) and manually deleted (again) my unwant application.. right?

Your list is quite safe, except for onw thing : browser, which I never deleted. Other apps should be safe to delete. Just make sure you know what you're doing. And don't delete phone.apk and contacts.apk.

thanks http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=3791248
but just one hour ago, i found new problem with it..
i have vending.apk (old version) from other thread,
i deleted vending.apk (version 3.4.4) from my \system\app and replace with vending.apk (old version)
restart
always FC (many application like market, phone, etc)
whats wrong? is my cm 7.2 RC4 not suitable with old version of market?
iTS DANgerous if you dont know what your doing .
I think you can't simply uninstall vending and everything will be ok. There's a flashable Gapps zip somewhere in this forum with the old vending, no autoactualizable (I think that word doesn't even exist in english xD). I hope to help.

I did that too, just remember to change permission and ownership for the old market (vending.apk). Btw, try to clear data from Market (from manage applications--all--Market) first. And don't forget to delete MarketUpdater.apk as well.

of course i remember to change permission and ownership for the old market (vending.apk) when i move it to \system\apk.. but to clear all data of market? it's necessary?
i try to find MarketUpdater.apk but i couldn't find it anywhere, so i just disable it through connectbot (pm disable bla bla bla bla bla)
where i can find flashable oldmarket? just oldmarket and no additional application..
btw.. thanks for all reply..
but i think tou need other app from that zip file for use marked ( but can delet carhomegoogle.apk-FOTAkill.apk-OneTimeInitializer.apk-GenieWidget.apk- ...)
don't touch : GoogleBackupTransport.apk- GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk- GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk- GoogleFeedback.apk- GooglePartnerSetup.apk- GoogleServicesFramework.apk
I did not delete the application you mentioned..
now i have question, where i can find marketupdater.apk in my system? i cant find some apk that related to market except vending.apk
btw, sorry about my english..

in your "gapp.zip" file you finde it.
but in CM stock rom zip file no marketupdater.apk .
i use RC4 and not really know it's true in other RC version.

[ADD ON][Samsung AddOn + TouchWiz UX for CM9]

With permission from the developer, I would like to share this with you guys. Its an add-on to be flashed over CM9 Nightlies. Its mainly for those who love the stock look of Samsung and includes some Samsung Apps + TW UX + Sony Walkman Player (which i personally think is awesome!)
http://www.mediafire.com/?r9zgl68tzbdc331
****To be flashed over CLEAN CM9****
>Back Up Apps
>Factory Reset
>Flash Zip via CWM
>Restore Apps
More details and screenshots available at the original thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667051
Pls dont forget to thank the developer if you like it.
will it work on cm9 experimental build?
yes it does. im tried on mine. the first boot takes somewhat long. took about 20 mins if i remember right. be warned, dont flash if u dont like touchwiz (latest) or stock samsung apps cos it adds a few of those.
the new weather clock.apk not work for me.... problem loading widget... is it work for you guys?
not working on mine either :-( sorry.
hey there,
i wanted a few samsung apps, but not the launcher as i still want to remain my CM9 launcher. if i straight away flash this, the touchwiz ui will replace the stock ICS launcher?
theres still the option to select the Trebuchet launcher. or u can install another launcher over it like Nova or Apex which looks exactly the same like Trebuchet but with more functions.
I want to flash this for the default Samsung camera app. But if I flash this, will my entire system, ie the settings, menu etc look like Samsung s ics Rom?
i dont think camera will be changed. if u have downloaded the zip, check the system/app folder inside the zip. all the additional apps will be found there.

Actually I can't just copy Samsung camera as it requires some Samsung framework and tw elements. So was asking if after u flash this zip, do u have Samsung camera or does copying stock camera from Samsung ics Rom can work or not.

i've checked. the samsung camera app is not included in this add on. to answer ur othr question, i dont think copying the stock samsung camera will work either, for the same reasons u stated above

Actually if u have an ics or even a gb nandroid backup, extract it and find polaris office apk from it and copy it to the location you found it. And change permission.

[REQ] Job Manager.apk of 4.0.4 RLG Please :'(

Hi, i messed up (i guess) a mod that installed the S3 task manager following a tutorial from an Spanish forum (btw i'm latin, so i did read well the steps). One of the steps was to delete the original task manager from the ROM, so i did it. In the end, i have the s3 widget, but when I tap it, the manager gets FC'd. Also, the manager isnt in the app drawer.
So please someone with the 4.0.4 RLG Rom with Root explorer, etc. could make a copy of the apk from system/app and pass me in PM or GDrive, Dropbox, etc.
Thanks in advance, cheers!
UPDATE: After 4 reboots, It works both the S3 task manager and the widget, but no luck appearing in the app drawer, which i didnt use it anyway xD but just in case case i need the stock apk.

Do you have the ROM file ? If you have you can do it yourself. Just Extract it and go to app and copy any apk which you require and push it to your phone under System>app

You should try search and if you did you would find:
SplannerWidget
You will have to be rooted at least with a custom kernel that has cwm or twrp. Lots of information on how to do that available, just use "search" and you will find it...
thanks for the link

if you take your time, do some reading, explore the vast amount of information here, do searches for things like kernels, tutorials, root and that sort of thing and you will do fine... and don't be scared of the thanks button :good: LOL...
You just need to be rooted, you don't even need a custom kernel. A root browser app will do the trick, download the zip file provided by bob, open it and extract the apk inside system\app folder. Move it to your phone's system\app folder and set permissions rw-r--r-- :good:
