What are all the system apps I can delete?
Anything that doesn't run or help to run system functions(core stuff). So basically anything that is just a normal app. Like the Cricket apps and the preinstalled games. Protips. Its hard to remember all the stuff really. Make sure to do a Nand back up before deleting anything, that way if you delete something you shouldnt have you can run a restore! Other then the bloats(preinstalled Cricket apps and games) I wouldn't recommend deleting much fron system.

I flash a lot. I'm getting sick of manually reinstalling apps. I used mybackup pro but it seems like it would forget apps. Right now I'm using AppBrain. Is there any way to back up all apps then reinstall them from the back up and have them run like nothing ever happened?
android should install them automatically once you link your phone with your google account. Other then that not that I know of, unless you move all apps to sdcard.
I think it only does that on the stock rom.
nope, did it for CM6 and Enomthers rom (sorry i cant remember how to spell it)

Do a nandroid backup, and a titanium backup and this ROM zip too. In case u mess up real bad, and even ur nandroid can't help, u could install this ROM back, and use TiBu to restore apps and data.
My mom has a captivate running stock android 2.1.
I only enabled lagfix on her phone and nothing else.
After the official froyo came out I was thinking about updating it.
I have a few questions about it. Please answer as many as you can...
1. Will all apps disappear?
2. If yes for #1 do I need to get titanium backup?
3. Do I disable lagfix?
Please help.. thank you

Here's your answer, search the forums. You will find it.
1. All apps will dissapear! Be warned
2. You should use titanium backup thats a good idea but the kb1 must be rooted and sideloading enable to get them all back (use super one click) also put the titanium backup folder on external sd or on computer just in case
3. YES DISABLE THE LAGFIX VERY IMPORTANT

Thanks for the reply!. Would have caused a great trouble if I didn't question this...
Anyway just wondering, if I just had the captivate and did not know anything about root/flash/etc I would have just updated and gotten everything deleted right?
Did Samsung mention the fact that all my apps would have disappeared?. I just think its unfair to some people....

With normal android devices this would not have been an issue as the apps reinstall when you light into your Google account but that feature is missing from the Galaxy line

Yea, you should take all the important folders off your internal sd card like the titanium backup folder and put them spmewhere on you computer, that's what I did and once I updated I got all my files back, I still needed to root/enable sideloading to get my apps from TiBu back

Yes, it would have gotten deleted even if you hadn't upgraded to the ji6 build of froyo

Is that true? Now it makes sense why nothing seems to happen when I go to a new rom.
No clue... Probably a comp or browser

I received the SGH-i957 for work and they told us not to add any weird apps. What I want to do is remove some the crappy AT&T apps to use less resources. I have rooted an EVO 4g and a HTC Arrive Windows Phone as well as my old HTC Touch Diamond. I have been reading the different threads and I am just curious what you guys think the best method is?
It really doesn't use more resources

If your work said to not mess with apps then I wouldn't really root it.
If you don't care about that, then just follow the rooting thread. I personally like the kernel root method

I will go into more detail I guess. I want to backup how they gave it to me and run it custom, be it remove apps or a new rom. I am worried about some kind of privacy issues. With my HTC Evo 4g I could backup the original rom completely and then uninstall programs or install a new rom.

Flash twrp and make a nandroid backup then do your root process.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda premium
Yeah, I am definitely rooting it. It is ungodly slow with only a few programs on it and it keeps using at&t data even though I have removed all widgets and have very few apps installed. I know that know one wants to hear me say this but every time I use Android I dislike it more and more. I am sorry if I offend anyone.

Ok, I got permission from the boss to root and either clean up the stock rom, remove crap, or load a custom rom. So should I just follow the guide in this and if I have to run a custom rom use the on in this thread. Do I have to use the twrp and nandroid backup to make a backup? Or can I restore the stock rom buy using Method 2 after I follow the Method 1 in the root guide?

Hi people!!!
I'm ready to change my old android 4.0 for a new one, i'm thinking in 4.2.2 because it's newer and i think that has less bugs that this version.
But i'm worried about my apps, and services, like my gps points and my advace in my games and download again everything!!!
So, i want to know if exist any app to avoid download all again, and keep my info, like my notes, my downloads and everything.
Thanks in advance for the help!!!

Google will back up all of your apps if you opted to do so. Make a nandroid back up in recovery, as well as a TiBu backup. Then when you isntall 4.2.2 you should be able to recover everything with those 3 backups.

Going from 4.0 to 4.2.2 could cause issues though so be warned that after you restore your data you could encounter FC's. Not saying it will happen but there is always a chance. Especially considering that there is a completely different partition layout between where you are and where you are wanting to go.

Well wouldn't he just flash 4.2.2 twice, then the gapps, and restore non-system apps and be fine?

Yes that would work perfectly as far as restoring apps. However the restore of user data for the apps so he has his last save point on a game or is already logged into Facebook might be a different story. With the use of the /datadata partition in JB it could cause issues. But it might not I really don't know.

Good point, didn't think of that. I would think the apps should be able to find the correct path though when restoring backups from ICS to JB...worst comes to worst just move it manually

I know that cm10.1 has a symbolic link, data/data >> datadata, that gets created when you flash it. I imagine that is only there to allow legacy settings to work.

Thanks for the answers, its really helpfull for me.
Mmm i think that it's better download all again, after that generate a issues in device, because it's just why i'm changing my android version jeje to avoid problems and bugs.
So, i want just one answer, what it's better for me.
Make that backup and restore with all its problems, or just download all my apps again and lose the data.
Remember i am a noob in this world, and i think that i can afford the time of install all again.
Thank forum, it's just a lot of help for me.

Try both out. I would start by doing all your backups and then upgrade and try to restore your data. If it works then go with it. If you have problems resort to the other option.

You can use Titanium Backup to backup your apps
