System Apps & Removal - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just updated to the latest frimware.
Few apps im not sure bout, can/can't they be removed!
Im seeing the following running, under task manager;
-diagnostic Tool
-R2R Client
-Status Switch
-SEMCCheckin
-Contact Deatils
Can any of these be removed? If so what APK names do they go under in Titanium?

R2R Client is for the APN to receive at beginning to get Internet Access. When you delete Contact Details you cant see Details of your Contacts anymore so dont do it!! Status Switch is a Widget can be deleted. Diagnostic Tool and SEMCCheckin are 2 Diagnostic Tools but dont know what happen if you delete it.

Software Update
Sony Ericsson Sync
Sony Ericsson Sync Client Wizard
Is another that keeps popping up!

SE Sync you can delete if you dont Sync with SE. Dont delete Softwareupdate go to Prefences and then Phone Info then Softwareupdate and then uncheck Automatic Search then it shouldnt be as Service in Background. But if you delete it you cant do OTA Updates anymore.

This can be used as a reference - http://ccalonnec.fr/wiki/index.php?title=SE_Xperia_X10_:_list_of_default_apps_and_how_to_remove_them

Have backed it up, and deleted it.
OTA Updates are pointless, Well, i haven't used them yet anyway!

Anyway we can get rid of the com. blah blah etc that appeasr when we've uninstalled stuff!?

Hi, sometimes doing updates via OTA can keep your phone rooted unlike the SEUS update...
For Sony Ericsson Sync why they keep it in the last update, since december 30 2011 the service don't work anymore ?
Edit : oops didn't see that the last post was from dec 2010, sorry.

Timescape.apk?

I foolishly deleted the timescape.apk from my phone as i dont use it and wanted to free up some memory. I believe some part of the OS is trying to open it still as I get an error message that it cant be found each time I reboot. I tried downloading a .apk from the web but it wouldnt install, so I assume there are different versions. Could someone please post the Timescape.apks (there are three related ones IIRC) so that I can reinstall please?
Maybe the widget is still on one of your home screens? I deleted mine and I have no issues.
No, I have never used it. Thats why I am a bit confused to be honest. It comes up every time I reboot, says something along the lines of "Timescape service failed to start".
Timescape
Someone in the forum said that you should leave the timescape provider service to not get that error message, and that helped me.
Hello,
You must also remove :
uWlopProvider.apk
SnsContactImageCacheProvider.apk
TimescapePluginManager.apk
TimescapeProvider.apk​to completely uninstall Timescape.

That is ture and u confirm that by opening the astro file manger and go to the system app folder and u will see the sign for the timescape next to each APK responsable for the timescape
Thanks! All sorted now.
hey...do you know what is the app name for Vodafone Find & Go?
i can't find it in system/app to delete it.
yeah i dont know its thats whats wrong with mine but i tried deleting it too. when i reboot my phone it said it has failed to start com.timescape.provider and when i try connecting to android market it will say loading and just exit by itself leaving me back on the app selection screen... plaease help! i want to download apps! by the way during my adventures through the crazy depths of my phone i fiddled with some permissions (basicly clicking random buttons) via root explorer...wud that matter?
Any possibilities to run this application on other Android Phones???? Just like U8150 IDEOS???

[Q] SE PC Companion "Repair"

Can anyone tell me what this does before I try it? Will it factory default my phone? I'm trying to sort a problem where entries added to Google Calender on web update to phone, bt entries added to Google Calendar on phone don't update to web. I don't want a factory default as I'll lose entries added on the phone.
Thanks
Yup it'll write a clean install of the firmware to the phone and you'll be back to factory defaults. Check out the backup and restore tool on the phone, that'll save your contacts, calender etc.
Cheers for the info mate. Doesn't seem like it includes calendar from the info in the app itself strangely :-| Might try find another solution to back it up (maybe try re-install SE Sync that I removed when I rooted along with the other SE pre-installed rubbish!) Ta!

EDIT : I'm running on 2.1 now and if you can't find that app in 1.6,you have to google search the app ya

I have been trying to install 2.1 but i always get "driver not installed" error while i'm trying to get the phone into flashmode. I downloaded the USB drivers from the forum and it keeps saying error occurred. Its just getting really annoying...

Is your country of origin update available? Use PC Companion or SEUS instead.Try that before using any customised ROM in XDA
You have to enable "check for new update when phone is connnected" for PC Companion.Open SEUS to check new updates too

It helped alot. I got 2.1 on my device. I'm in the US so the update wasn't released, had to use the flasher to get it on there with the updated SEUSB drivers. I had to go back to 1.6 because 2.1 was very slow and sluggish. Switching screens, phone book, texting, timescape, and keyboard were all lagging. Did you have this problem? And also I had no 3G, it would just have a "H" where the 3G icon was suppose to be.

Glad to hear that!
hmmm...I don't have any lag with my generic firmware.You can always do some configuration by changing your current firmware to Global generic.
Check this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8973041#post8973041
Until your country's official firmware release is available,do a repair using SEUS.
There are some steps that you can follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828163&highlight=country+codes
Btw in 2.1 update H = High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) which is supposed to be faster that 3G.

First check if the calendar entries are there - PC > gmail account.
If there aren't any entries, it's a bit strange and it seems like sync wasn't active before.
If it's there, delete the gmail account from phone an add it again.
Because the restore from Titanium there can be two reasons for not working:
- the calendar app version change with firmware (maybe from ics to jb or gb to ics?!)
- there wasn't a entry set, which can be the reason for no entry from gmail sync

So this what I said with compatibility...
So u must restore ur calendar settings on GB.
Then for sure u can't directly sync them because it's local.
So u must try to bring them in the google calendar....
I've to say that I didn't do it til know so can't say how, but maybe there is an option like "import/export to calendar" or kind of it.
After this synch again...
Hope I made it a bit clearer now...

will try this.... thanks..
Try MyPhoneExplorer.
Some of the events are on device calendar, so they don't appear in GCalendar.
AFAIK, MPE can backup/restore all calendars present on device.
