So I purchased titanium back up cause I planned on experimenting.. I wanted to see if I could delete stock apps then restore them back to normal. The back up worked but the restore file isn't in apk. format where I found it. I deleted quadrapop nothing to die over but can some one explain how titanium works? does it only back up data and if so why is there an app backup option. Oh and how can I get quadrapop apk. My kid brother is gonna kill me. Thanks.

I don't know how you will get the game back but instead of deleting them you have the option to freeze them. I do this when i'm not sure if deleting will poo up the phone. It's easy to un freeze the apps (defrost !) But i've never seen the option to have apps back once you've uninstalled them.
You could run the phone through seus of course and put the phone back to it's original state

No making it master reset won't get the game back you have to reformat (repair)phone OS again. but search for APK first.
I figured searching for the apk would be the best idea , and thanks ill just freeze aps instead of delete, seems allot safer. I've been searching all day for the apk. With no results, is it some where here on xda

Bump, does freezing the app free space in the system app folder or just disable its services.

I could be wrong but even when i deleted moxier i didn't see a rise in phone memory so i doubt freezing them will change anything.

Hey all,
So awhile back I "froze" most of the bloatware (they were highlighted with a blue background)
Recently I tried to "defrost" them (returned to black background) and I checked my app drawer and sure enough the were all there...
However, after turning my phone off, and back on... they are now all MISSING from my app drawer! To make matters worse, they all have the black background so I don't know which apps I am missing.
This happens consistently, I can re-freeze and re-defrost all the apps and they will appear in my app drawer, until I turn my phone off.. then the go missing again..
ANY THOUGHTS?
THANKS!!
When u uninstall stock apps like quadrapop you can only get them back by putting the apk file into the phone mem and installing from there. In the android dev section theres a thread where someone posted a zip file with all the stock system apps you can download.
Once you have the apk u want u need a file manager with super user grant like root explorer or android mate, use it to put the apk file in phone mem in system/app and install it from there
I'm pretty new to titanium backup as well and this is how I got back calendar back, good luck

Quadrapop is available for free from PlayNow
I just rooted my phone and i wanted to uninstall some pre-installed apps that came with the phone from my network but i don't see them on the menu in 'Uninstaller'
Can you help me please?
Also can i delete the 'Super user' icon so my phone appears to be stock/non-rooted?
I downloaded ES file manager/astro file manager and none could remove the apps 'error removing .apk' There is only like 3-4 things i wish to remove *sigh*
Download Titanium Backup from the market, this will uninstall the .apks that you want to get rid of.

Any other app that does the same? I don't want to spend $6.50 Just to delete a couple of things, I'll only use it to delete like 5 things.. seems like a waste.
I downloaded the free one and it says it'll delete the app/reboot twice etc.. but it doesnt delete the app or reboot twice, Only restarts the phone
Don't use the 'force remove app' option then, just cliick the one you want to delete in the list and click uninstall.

Ok, but it's not that simple, you can't delete everything without consquences, search for the list of files that can be deleted without harm, from your specific ROM!

I've deleted most of the apps that came from my phone network, Just 1 i cant delete for some reason. I think cause it's tied in with the browser but thats ok i'll keep it.
Once in a while, an app gets corrupted such that trying to access it in the apps manager crashes the apps manager - thus, it can't be uninstalled normally.
I've noticed that sometimes when this happens, the name of the app in the apps manager changes as well (from the friendly name to the internal one - like com.developername.appname).
What's the best way to uninstall a corrupted app like this? Is there a good app to handle situations like this, or is it best to do it by hand - in which case, what's the procedure?
Is it just a matter of deleting anything that seems related in /data/app, /data/app-private, and /data/data?
What kind's of app crashes? If it is a system app then sometimes a Factory Reset could solve the problem, but not for good. Are you rooted? If you are rooted you could flash a new ROM. Sometimes stock ROM's aren't always the most stable. If you are not rooted then I would try to get root. Hope this helps
Oh, we're not talking about anything catastrophic that would require flashing a new ROM. Just regular misbehaving user-installed apps.
What's the best way to deal with those?

Guess you didn't read the first post.
The point was that these were corrupted apps, and going into them from the apps manager would crash the apps manager.
If u can see the app in app manager, then first clear the data, then uninstall it. If that does work, clear the data again, power cycle the phone, then uninstall it.

My bad, I missed that . Yes, you could delete them from /data/app/ (and check if their folder still exists in /data/data/. If so, delete that too).
Or you could use Titanium Backup

When I had this happen, I could see the app in the list of apps, but as soon as I tried to go into it, that's when the app manager would crash.

I tried. It seemed to freeze Titanium Backup. Although the item dissappeared from the apps list once I force quit titanium Backup, I don't actually know if it was properly uninstalled.
In case it happens again, I just wanted to know the best way to handle it.
Hello guys,maybe it's sound incredibly (because I know that many people love this app) but I tried to install this app too, and then freeze problem started...First, I frozen Google Play Store services, because it was useless to me.When I frozen it on Titanium Backup, I just opened "Ceal master" app, and accidentally chosen "update this app" or something like that, my whole system just frozen when it's opened that Google Play store (which I was frozen on Titanium Backup) So I just had to take out a battery and take it in again to make my Samsung work again (Because there was absolutely no reaction before, even I couldn't restart it by my own holding power key) After that, my Samsung device started working normally again.
And one more example, that I was frozen Dropbox services on Titanium,then I wanted to sync my some photos with Dropbox, and my whole system frozen again and I had to take out battery and to take in again, to make my system to work normally.
So, finally I deleted that f****ng Titanium Backup app and tried to install "DisableServices" and this app doesn't cause any freeze problems for me.
So,what do you think, it is possible that Titanium Backup can cause freeze problem for a whole system?
And what about your experiences with Titanium Backup app?
Sounds like a severe case of "stupid owner"syndrome to me
If you freeze a system app, and the system needs the app it can cause the phone to freeze.
I don't want to offend you but are you sure you should be rooted after that?

Got to agree with the 2 above. Don't freeze what you don't understand

Thanks,I've learned many things with android but Titanium backup was just not for me,because probably I didn't know how to use it correctly.:cyclops:
There is a possibility that you have a mixed odex/deodexed system.. This can cause titanium backup to freeze the phone up.

Have been using TiB for 2 years now and never had a problem because of frozen apps. But you have to know which app to freeze. Freezing is just like uninstalling so be careful with system apps. Normally rather than freeze, I just uninstall apps and restore from backup with data if required. But you can freeze apps like Maps, may be useful for that.

It also helps if You have multiple launchers, You could freeze the launchers which You don't use, Which will lead to a better battery life and user experience
Always making a backup before doing anything helps a lot .. You'll need it trust me ^_^
Good luck
