Would root be any benefit for this? I mean if he has root can he delete them for good?

He is rooted, otherwise Titanium Backup wouldn't have worked for him in the first place. I could be wrong, though.
Personally I'd rather remove all apps I don't want or need rather than freeze them ... There's **** on my phone that I just want gone completely and not just disbaled or frozen, Facebook integration and Blinkfeed would be gone straight away lol

I have not tried removing system applications using TitaniumBackup on my HTC One, to be honest with you, and I am running stock, non-rooted and odexed 4.2.2 which I am going to root in a few. I think the only option you have at the moment is to freeze them until you can figure something out. The only other option I could think of is installing a custom ROM which I believe lets you delete them without having to worry about them coming back, like TrickDroid, for instance.
Tried to dl that app yet? I had the same prob when running stock for a while. Sorted my issues.

Ok, so I have a rooted Nexus One with cyanogen 6.0rc3 on it. I recently tried to put cyanogen 6.1 on it so I could upgrade to 7.0. Then, I see the common glitch where there is no market so I revert back to my old rom which I made a backup for(using ROM Manager). So here comes the hard part, when it restores my ROM, have no apps, no nothing which I downloaded, and I tried to restore again, because ROM Manager reinstalled, but I didn't get anything. Can some tell me how to get my data and all my stuff back, please?!?!?!?! If I don't get help by the end of the month, my service gets cut off, so I really need help!!!! Please help guys, thanks in advance, you guys are the bomb!!!!

What's that supposed to mean? You lose service because you don't have the data on your phone restored?
Are you using apps2sd?
I feel like you have no chance of restoring anything at the moment though.
If you have a custom recovery, just wipe and start again, or restore your backup... Make sure you have a gapps package that is compatible with your ROM...

All your apps will be in the market under 'my apps' and as long as you have synched with Google servers all your data should be retrieveable by re-synching.

You don't need to go to cm6.1 to get to cm7. Even on 6.1 you need to do a full wipe anyway to eliminate any potential problems.
Also did you happen to use CWM 3.0?

Ok im running stock ICS on my vivid and im wanting to get rid of all the AT&T junk.I Tried freezing some with titanium backup but it says i have to donate to freeze the apps.I want them gone not just frozen.It gives me the option to delete but i can't find a list of things that are safe to remove anywhere.Im running the stock htc_vivid_att_RUU_3.26.502.56_R23_US.Is there a tool that will do this anywhere?Or i can do it manually but it would be great if i had a complete list of things to remove without causing errors..I was running some custom ROMS but came back to stock due to in-call volume issues.Thanks in advance.

If you use titanium back up pro which I highly suggest you can remove system apps yes you have to pay but imho it is worth it. That will be the easiest way probably but be carefull and only remove apps that are not needed. There are system apps that are needed and if you remove them you can run into a world of hurt
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda app-developers app
anything branded At&T should be completely safe to remove. any other programs you want to remove just make sure you have a back up in Titanium (incase deleteing/uninstalling it does mess something up).
edit: Root uninstaller is free and will uninstall anything, and always make sure you have a back up of anything you cant stand to loose(just in case)

Just flash one of the debloated roms on the forum, no need for you to go one by one wondering if its safe or not.

There is no stock RUU released yet. and my One has root and works fine, so I don't think it can be the root method.

I'd say just use one of the roms, sideload apps you use daily and wait it out. nandroiding to a different device is bad news, my friend.
I also am having the same issue with not being able to install to sdcard, you're not alone.

Same here. Luckily my TiBackup seems to be installing everything fine, just have to wait out a fix and sideload in the meantime.
Edited... Always read the entire ROM thread before posting... quick fix is listed in there.
I've been having the problem since I installed ViperROM last night. Viper is working on finding a fix. For now, I copied my TiBu files over from my Evo LTE and restored them that way.

Ok guys, my Sensation XL is currently on Android 2.3.5, and I'm trying to update the firmware to the newest. But my phone is rooted! I downloaded that OTA RootKeeper app and activated it before starting the whole updating process, but for the past...I'd say half hour it's been sitting on the screen with the triange and the Droid mascot. So, does that mean it's slowly working? Or is it just going to sit here until I decide to unplug the phone and give up? I wanna update my phone because there are apps where I need the latest firmware, but I like the freedom of having a rooted phone so I can delete what I dont want and so on.
How long should this update take? Since it is kind of updating a ****load X3 Also, if this doesnt work, I wanna do a complete stock reboot of the phone then try updating the firmware, but I dont wanna loose all my apps, save data, contacts and so on D: Plus will the bloatware I deleted using my root return with a vengeance if I do a Factory Restart? Help me out here, guys D:

If it took longer than 5 minutes, then it is bootlooping. Unlock boot loader, flash custom recovery, s off, flash a custom rom. Then you can have latest, but no matter what, you will loose all your data on the phone except what's on the inbuilt sdcard. Note the contacts are usually synced with you gmail login.

There does exsist some apps that can take backup of apps. Look in the sticky threads for guides or you can do it with my aio tool if you are running on a 64 bit windows.

It cant create backup of apps only. It can only create a full backup.
Yes ATM it can only work on 64 bit. Need to change a few thing before it works on 32 bit

I found some good looking ways of updating to the latest firmware, but since I'm a newb I cant actually link them to you so you could give them the thumbs up I'm just getting so tired of having a crappy ass old firmware on my phone now T_T plus I'm hoping the new firmware could fix a few problems. I'm half tempted to just backup my contacts and just factory reboot my whole phone...and live with it not being rooted until the end of my contract. Should I just give up and do that? XD
I've used Titanium to uninstall a ton of the Sprint crap. But as soon as I reboot it redownloads everything.... How do we get around this?

Educated guess because it happens to me too, I would uncheck restore apps in the backup settings. Believe that the system thinks that the apps need to be reinstalled because they were backed up prior to you removing them.
If you still have SprintID installed you can go in there and delete the Sprint pack it removes most of the Sprint bloat

I did the same thing first night I got the phone. I would uninstall tons of crap apps and they all come back. The stock rom is secured and has system write protection enabled. The easiest way around this is to first s-off which you should anyway if your going to root. Next flash a custom rom or if you wanna stick with stock (I actually am staying stock for now to give the custom roms time to mature) then flash Captain Throw backs version over at themikmik. It's comes rooted out of the box and if you s-off you won't have any issues getting rid of bloat apps. Mine is squeaky clean. I couldn't believe how much crap they loaded it with. No issues with them coming back. If you stay s-on you need to flash a kernel patch which I did before s-off was available but I wouldn't recommend doing that.
