Have searched found most of what I wanted to do however I have the following two things I can seem to get rid of.
I have removed all of the SNS stuff except SNS 1.5 with TB.
Can I remove this?
I also cant seem to get rid of everything Social Hum as in when you goto add accounts there is still two listed. They are:
Windows Live Hotmail and Yahoo Mail
How can I get rid of these?
some one has got to have an answer..... please
Just because the option is there doesn't mean the program is. Why the need to get rid of every trace?

That confused me too. Why do you want remove every trace of them? The only time you see that is when you go to add an account.

I guess I am a little OCD?
can I remove SNS 1.5?
You can freeze it in TB, if you don't get FCs or other issues you should be able to uninstall it. That way you can unfreeze it instead of reflashing a ROM if it gives you issues.

If you freeze/uninstall all of the different SNS listings you WILL get FCs when trying to use certain features related to contacts. Specifically if you link your contacts with FB or whatever and then freeze the SNS account linked to that social networking site your contacts will never update. If you freeze SnsImageCache it will cause a FC if you try and open the "media" tab under a contact's name.

What I really want is root, so I can remove the Samsung bloatware, but in the mean time, how can I stop Social Hub from doing anything?
To test it I pretty much logged in to everything, Twitter, Facebook, Gmail, Google Talk... but now I find there's no way to remove accounts?
That got me too! I've now put all the crap apps in a folder so there out of sight. I don't think we'll need to root the phone to get rid of these apps. Hopefully there will be a more advanced task/application manager out soon that will allow access to that pointless samsung apps.

I figured out how to remove sns accounts, but not im accounts...
To remove facebook and twitter goto settings, accounts and sync. Then remove the accounts...
In the end, I did a factory reset just to make sure it's all disconnected.
Ahh yes. Well, I have root now and I've removed all SNS apps

Any quick way to remove these all at once besides installing a deodexed rom?

Root your device and install titanium backup and use it to freeze or remove the apps you want.

Title say it all, for all those use both.
Social hub vs facebook app, gmail app, IM app, etc.
Which one do you prefer and why?

I tried the social hub but gave up on it... I think it suffers from the same problem most other aggrrgstors in that it's not feature complete...
For instance I couldn't figure out how to post a picture to facebook
There's no facebook chat...
And I couldn't work out how to follow a new person in twitter....
All really basic omissions. FAIL

Glad you said that as saves me trying to use it
that sucks, wish it was better =(
Any alternatives? The friendstream in HTC Sense is fantastic! Moved over to CM7 but I've been struggling to find any decent alternatives I use Launcher Pro's widget but not as good as friendstream.
Agreed friendstream is excellent, I'm coming from a HD2 running Android with Sense and that's the one widget I'll miss the most I think so hope there's a decent alternative available. Once I have the phone I'll start looking but hopefully someone can recommend a good one so will be watching this closely
I'm loving TweetDeck at the moment. You can have Facebook and Twitter separated into columns or you can have them bundled together.
Mentions and notifications on Twitter and Facebook are also organised into one column and you can setup notification sounds etc. for each column.
Worth checking out considering it's free and I wouldn't go near the Twitter for Android app again.

do you have ANY idea how many messages i missed because i thot "o look fancy social app, im sure it'll beep when i have messages"...waiting..waiting...20 hours later my friends calls me pissed off "hey..its been 20 hours why didnt you reply to facebook message?"
But at the moment we stop using SocialHub we'll lose the contact social (updates/multimedia) as a side effect right?
If like of the only part of it you want is the contact integration then you only need the sns parts of the whole social hub. The rest you can remove or freeze with titanium backup.
I'm using Batista rom which doesn't have the social hub. I just added the sns stuff and then added the Facebook for social hub account under phone settings->accounts and sync. Then also just enable Facebook under your contacts display settings

Thanks a lot, wonderful news you gave me now. I love the integration itself but I dont like the socialhub UI.

Yep, that's how I use it, too. Keep the benefits and get rid of the crap.
Is there any way to hide some facebook friends? My facebook is organized by groups but the sns doesn't take this in consideration.

I give up using the social hub as I could not get thur the samsung registeration step. The Reg. repeated itself and just could not get out.
Yup - it's official - the Social Hub is a steam pile of ****e....
I recently remove the built in facebook app mistaking it for something else, I can't re-add my facebook account in "accounts & sync" cuz it because the app is no longer installed, can anyone help me on this. I have a back up but its 3 months old! Can anyone share the facebook sns or any assistance at all?

Did you try reflashing your rom? That should work.
Install Facebook App from market, that should do.
It would work fine.
It won't be integrated as before but it surely works good just as before.
Restoring the just the system back solved my issue, thanks!

I just upgraded to ICS from GB... I setup all my emails with push notification... then i froze all the samsung hubs (bloatware trash)...
And poof... my email accounts disappear... I had to unfreeze everything and then restart the phone and reinstall all my accounts for it to work again...
Is the samsung hub linked in some way to the push email?? what samsung hubs should i not freeze to keep push email?
And if i don't put push email can i freeze all the hubs or will it delete all my accounts again?
You could use a bit of trial and error here.
Just freeze 1 app at a time in TB and check if email is ok. Soon enough you will find the one that you can't freeze.

very very weird... Apparently it's the social hub with a few dependencies even when push email is not enabled... I hate samsung bloatware
I also remember a post that listed what apps you could freeze with titanium backup... But i can't find it. Anyone else remember it and can find it?
Probably this thread could help you.
Try to Freeze app and Unfreeze again or flash a new rom if it can't solve
I uninstalled all the hubs rather than freeze then set up email. Seems to work fine.

what rom are you running? And does it work with push notifications?
seems like both go sms and handcent are unable to pull up access to facebook contacts, stock messaging will, but no go on searching in other apps.
anyone know of a workaround?

Strange GO SMS Pro for me is working fine. Its not allowing facebook photos to show up otherwise its fine for me.
I'm guessing so app's are crossing over and garbling crap up
anyone have any idea what the samsung app "facebook for syncing" is in the accounts manager vs facebook/friendcaster.
I've found that friendcaster will sync my facebook friends..but not my numbers...
and facebook app will do both..but other app's arent registering them
and as far as I can tell the samsung facebook app for syncing is just for gallery/calender...but yet I can't get calender to work, just error's out.
