I searched the forums but didn't find the info.
I'm not sure what com.sonyericsson.devicemonitor does but it starts the service in the background.
Is this safe to remove?
Backup it somewhere and try.

I like that you can remove stuff like AT&T Navigator without even rooting, just from the Manage Applications screen. But the manage applications screen has over 200 items in it. What can I remove safely? And is there even more bloat that the manage apps screen doesn't show, stuff that only titanium backup or a root explorer would show?
I have some idea of what I'm doing. Sort of lol
Through the settings app, you can only remove applications under the downloaded tab. With root, you could do more, but risk bricking your device.
If you have the itch to remove software, get out the thread about freezing them with Titanium Backup (with root).
Wasn't it possible to remove a lot of crap from the Captivate?
Check the development section. There are two relevant sticky posts. Root but remove nothing use Titanium backup to Freeze certain apps only.

I have a problem that is causing me a lot of stress and have been unable to think of and find a solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Today a friend of mine was looking through my phone and commented at how my internal storage was almost gone. He said that he could free up some space and so I obliged, as he knew his way around phones quite well. He was looking through a folder and commented that there were some .apk files that could be deleted to free up space. Thinking they were files I had gotten from downloads, I said it was OK to delete them. This was my mistake, as I should have asked where exactly these files were. He deletes the files and my internal storage frees up a few dozen megabytes. This is where everything went to hell. As soon as he finished deleting those .apk files applications start force closing one after another. Thinking it was a glitch he shuts down and restarts the phone. Upon restart, I find ALL my applications gone. The icons are gone and when clicking a spot where an application used to be, it says application not found.
My phone is rooted using DooMLoRD Easy Rooting Toolkit.
I HAD Titanium Backup (root) installed before this mess started.
I HAD rootexplorer installed as well.
Upon further investigation, my friend told me that he had deleted these .apk files from the phone memory under a data folder. He couldn't get more specific than that. He accessed these files through rootexplorer.
I seriously don't know what to do and am about to cry.
I thought that by reinstalling google play and titanium backup I'd be able to restore these applications but I can't even install the downloaded .apks from the internet. Tried putting it on my SD card and opening it but it doesn't recognize any program to install. I thought of using the Sony Ericsson PC Companion to install the .apks but don't know how my phone will be affected since it's been rooted using DooMLoRD's method.
Someone please help. I'm still a newbie with all of this and don't really know what I'm doing. Searches for similar problems on the internet haven't proven useful at all. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Thank you
Okay. You need to loose all your data. Take back up of contacts. It should be possible with the stock contacts app. And your msgs if you want.
Then do a factory reset. You will need to download your apps all over again. And if you had taken back up using titanium backup, you will be able to reinstall titanium back up after the factory reset. And you can restore things.
Thanks,

Your solution worked. Lost some data restoring a Titanium backup a couple days old but it's better than having everything missing. Thanks!
I'm thinking about restoring my phone to deafult settings because of some small annoying bugs. Before the reset, I'd like to backup my apps etc. The included program for backups is really good, but I wonder where the backup is located if I need to transfer it to my computer so that it won't be deleted in the reset. My question is then: Where is the backup located? I've searched my whole internal memory and sdcard, but found nothing. I've also searched for the problem on Google without results. Please help me, I'd would be really thankful for quick answers.
EDIT: Never mind, dumb as I am I forgot to check the hidden files.
Can i backup and restore system apps with DataSync?
why not just try? it'll be simple wouldn't it?
Hello there,
I'm using Titanium Backup 6.0.3.1 on my SGS2 and android 4.1.2, i search for a feature that i cant find:
Is there somewhere i can find the operation log. By mistake i unfreezed some of my apps, and i cant find what those apps are, so i wana check the Titanium log, but it seems there is not, Strange for an application that has 100 options settings we dont care but not a simple option for logging?
Thank
I'm also trying to find out where the TB log file is kept if there is such a thing.
