Cricket is a phone company.
JIT is a technique for improving the runtime performance of a program. In this case, our phones. very unstable though.
can't help with apps2sd.
titanium backup will back up all your apps including the market link so you can get updates. other than that no.
And metamorph is an app to theme your ROM.

Sweet thanks alot now i just need md5

Or are there any apps that I can't uninstall everything form Sprint or are there any apps like backup assistant that I can't ? Thanks for the help , and what roms you guys recommend ? I was using synergy Rom rc1 on EVO but it looks like the only got nightlies on thunderbolt , anything else that includes HTC hub and such ? Thanks for the help again

You can remove most of what you want, just make a back up and use common sense. As far as ROMs there're plenty of good ones, I personally like team BAMF's work.

Do you still want sense?

Here is a list of the roms. I am running Das-Bamf's Gingrebread de-sensed, stripped down version. I like it, but if you go Gingerbread, you will have to download and flash the new radio. I would suggest trying a few of the fryo Roms first, and go form there. here is a link to a thread with a list of roms.

I wouldn't remove anything, just freeze (with Titanium Backup Pro) or rename (if you don't have the Pro version).

You're pretty safe removing apps unless they have "HTC" or "Google" in the name.

Renaming them should remove them from your app drawer. Root Explorer or another app like it should make this very easy.

Expected official ota

Will the ota that we are expecting give me the option to ignore the download or not install it or will it automatically download and install? I want to make sure I keep my ATRIX the way I have it for now.
Thanks

You can ignore it
On bell you can atleast.
Don't download it when it ask just press ignore. Other wise it'll tell you every hour about updating. Also there are several post about how to disable this notification. I'll post the links here when I find one.
Heck too much stuff to dig through but you should try to freeze the updater with titanium backup to keep it from hounding you. If it does that is.

and again I find my self at one of your abusive threads boy this is fun, you said your own a custom rom so why not here is a long shot go to the rom thread take a look and ask in there, and stop being a foul mouthed short tempered prick because frankly you may be making my evening quite fun but you aint going to get any help, and the problems you having with the kitchen maybe be something to do with you needing to be spoon fed information.
And no wear in this thread have you made "numerous" posts saying what rom you are on, except the one post you made after *****ing like a twat again.

What question? There's only one question; "What am I missing?".

To view system files on your phone you need root explorer, probably others similar but that's the one i use

Taken from the Checkrom forum post I suggest you read about the rom you are using before making posts like this one again.
In regards to the kitchen make sure you are set to the correct server if its set to the old Revolution ROM 2.7.1 i would take a stab and say they wont work since they are built for XXKI3.
Also try removing cached packages from kitchen pro preferences.
Base XXKI4
Multi CSC
Deodexed
Zipaligned
no increasing ring for Phone.apk
resolv.conf added for faster gps lock
Much Improved an optimal Init.d scripts
Updated DK Engine for the upcoming kernel!
Tweaks to build.prop
JkayV12.1
Minor bug's fixed
smoothness to the core
Included libsqlite.so and libsqlite_ini.so from Android 2.3.7 (improves performance)
Included app_process and system_server from Android 2.3.7 (improves scrolling)
Included sqlite3
Maps.apk to v5.11 with global Navigation (ownhere/Brut.all)
added .salted_hash in sdcard/clockworkmod

How to backup touchwiz folders and icons

Hello guys! I've been formatting my phone more frequently as of lately as I've been trying roms, and I'd like to know is there a way to backup the icon order or folders or anything like that? It's kind of a pain putting all my icons back in order and such every time! I'm not rooted. Is there a way? Thanks
Some launchers have the ability to save the layout, launcher pro and adw come to mind, doubt the stock one can.

Yes I did read your first post! Indeed you said you are not rooted, But,.... you didn't asked for any way without root did you? You just asked and I provided an answer, one you would of found of you had actually searched?
Just got to be a little clearer to exactly what you need, so Users wishing to help don't waste their time
Cheers

You have to root if you wanna use Titanium Backup
I think other app or other solution you still need to root cause you have to mass with system app(touchwiz) so you need root.

[App] Face Unlock for TW 4.0.4

As we all notice with the new exciting 4.0.4 release for the SGT-10.1, Face unlock is not available for unlocking the tab!
I have taken the liberty to modify the ICS-04292012-gapps to include Facelock.apk without all the rest of the gapps. So BIG THANKS to the CM team for the zip and the components outside of the facelock.apk. The facelock.apk came from my SGS3 and works perfect on my tab.
Instructions:
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PROBLEMS THAT MIGHT OCCUR FROM FLASHING THIS! BY DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING, YOU THE USER ABSOLVE ME FROM ANY DAMAGES THAT MIGHT INCUR FROM YOU INSTALLING!!
1: MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP!
2: DID YOU MAKE A BACKUP?
3: ARE YOU SURE YOU MADE A BACKUP!
4: Download the zip http://www.mediafire.com/?pps4d43jmpoyjc4
5: Flash with CWM
6: Reboot
7: Check settings>security>screen lock
This has been tested only on the P7510. Once more people download and report back, I can say if it works with other variants of the 10.1 series.
Confirm working by RavenY2K3 that it works on P7500. He had to clear extra space on the /system partition to have it running.
Man, thanx for it!

Scratch that, I delved a little into the system and it appears the amount of space in the ROM partition wasn't enough, it didn't give any errors on flashing to say there wasn't enough but I moved a few things around manually and reflashed the file....

What's needed is to get someone with a 7500 who flashed with PC Odin to see if they have had the same issue I just had, I did it with the mobile version and those people who did the same have found that the hidden.img didn't flash, so some apps weren't available after flashing.

If you are rooted, use a program like Titanium Backup in the market to remove any useless apps, need to clear at least 25 MB.

Are you trying to say that it means clear some spaces?
How much space do I need to free? or which app need to be clear ?

I removed like GMail, Maps, StreetView, YouTube, Books, Movies. And just re-downloaded from the Play Store, because it puts it in /data/apps.
This works great on Tasks ICS. I removed a few useless apps with titanium backup and it works great!
