I solved some issues I was having, thought I would share.
Notice Chrome freezing or responding really slowly? Or do you hate not having easy access to tabs and functions? Go to Settings and disable 'Merge tabs and apps'.
Can't remove system apps? Grab the app 'Parcel' from Google play. Uninstall the apps 3 times in a row, then reboot.
All I got for now...
Feel free to share yours!

Or you could just root and use titanium backup to remove system apps instantly

i managed to root BNL2 all the way to BOB7
To the best of my knowledge, for those of us who were not already rooted on KK, a Lollipop root exploit is not available yet.

I stand corrected. Please point me to the thread that will show me how to root my previously unrooted, locked, Lollipop GS5 without downgrading the OS.

Sorry, I should have been more specific. I have a SM-G900V (Verizon) not T-Mobile as the link you supplied reflects. That link also states "CF-Auto-Root is not yet available for all models". I searched the forum and found no instance of "Verizon" or "900V". Thank you anyway. I'll keep monitoring the forum.

Sorry, first line in that thread is "**You can begin the following process from any build/ROM but you must have both root and Safestrap installed before proceeding**".
No other suggestions?
Why don't you downgrade to an old firmware and then update with the thread I posted? Don't know about rooting on a g900v as I've got a G900F
Hi guys
I just want to ask your opinion regarding these issue. Is it safe to remove stock apps from system/app or is it more safe to just freeze them using Titanium Backup? If you guy have a list of bloatware to be remove in stock .207 firmware please share.

It's better to freeze them if you're not sure what they exactly do,
I froze these apps with Ti.Backup when I was on stock. Hope it helps
Still keep a nandroid backup just to be safe.

Well I have got a suggestion for you. There is an app called system app mover!!!!!!! It allows you to convert system app into normal app and vice versa. So you convert some non useful system app and use ur device if its functioning normally then uninstall it. This way you can keep track of every app you remove.
Hello everyone,im new to the XZ2 community. Recieved my black H8216 just yesterday and i am loving it. I quickly browsed through the posts and only found one post with regards font,but that required rooting of the device. I would like to know if anyone has maybe looked into finding a way to change the font style without root? Is there any way at all,or am i hoping for something thats impossible?
Also,is there any way to remove unwanted system apps such as AVG etc without root?

In the XZ2 Rom Section.
It needs ADB to remove as most bloat apps as possible, without the need of root.

Ahh,okay. Thank you,i will go and take a look at that. Didnt notice it because i was pre-occupied with trying to find some way of changing the font. @MartinX3,you seem to be a clever guy and rather active on the threads. Ive seen your name pop up on numerous posts now. Maybe you can help a girl out.
I am not too informed with writing scripts in ADB and so on,but with regards to the changing of the font. Is there not perhaps a way to take an app like Ifont and somehow add it as a system app with the required permissions to allow changing of the font style without rooting?
