Was just curious...
I currently have
Android Keyboard 2.3.6 - Don't use it
Badge Provider1.0
Calendar 1.0 - Theres a 1.1 I'm using.
ChocoEUkor 1.0
Clock 1.0 - Theres 2 of these...
Com.Samsung.app.playreadui 2.3.6
com.samsung.inputeventapp 1.0.0
CSC 1.0
Mobile Print 1.4.1 - Don't use it
Pico TTS 1.0 - Don't use it
Samsung Keypad 2.3.6 - Don't use it
Samsung TTS 1.0 - Don't use it
Service Mode 2.3.6
Speech Recorder 2.3.6 - Don't use it
wipeoutreciver 1.0
So what do you all have disabled and have you noticed any gains in performance/battery life?
I don't freeze a single thing....I download every rom and completely tear it apart. Anything that would be froze I just completely delete the APK....pretty much every one in your list and a hundred more. I also delete all the apps that installed to the system such as Facebook, Twitter, etc.....and just reinstall from the market. Makes the rom super light shedding crazy MBs....no running system crap....pretty much if I clear my ram there is five things running in services until I launch something....I have been on Omega for over a month and a half with NO issues whatsoever running Codeworx kernel and getting 16 hours up with 5 1/2 hours of screen on and about 45 minutes of voice calls not to mention texts all day.

Check this spreadsheet.

Impressive.
That list has served me well for a long time now....wish I had one back in the beginning of the Captivate days..would have saved me a bunch of time I wasted rescuing my phone....sure miss the fun though...the suspense of uninstalling the APK that was going to kill it. Kind of like guitar hero....it just wasn't as fun after you're good at it.
Don't forget to hit Pulsers thanx button for putting that together.

i only freeze something as a test for battery life. Once I know that there aren't any ill effects of freezing it, I'll remove it. So my rom's dont really have anything frozen, unless I'm testing it.

Just flashed CM7, previously using Alien. Seems like the email.apk in CM7 is the old version or something, not the same released in OTA or Alien, i have downloaded some apks with no luck.
Can someone point me to the apk that was included in the last OTA update? Forced to go back to touchdown... man i hate entering the ping to access my corporate emails.
Thanks,
Use Enhanced Email (in market) much better, no problems for any of my accounts, including exchange.
Second this. Using it now and it works great. Even circumvents exchange security if you want (optional)

Yeah, the only thing that quirks me, and I can't figure out, or understand why, is after you open the app, or receive a message... it cause like 10 -15 of my other apps to open (pre-load) in the background. I know this b/c I will kill everything before hand with a task/app killer, open Enhanced Email, close it, and then hit the killer again, and it says like 15 app were killed... not a big deal, but takes a chuck out of the ram if you don't kill the background apps.
Thanks for the options but it is not free.

Nope it is not... but you get what you pay for most of the time
Dev updates regularly too.
What's the issue with the CM7 email App? It works fine with exchange. Push is fully supported.
I like that you can have multiple accounts and color code them. I it isn't quite as asthetically pleasing as the blur one where you had a folder with all your accounts but it is just as functional.

Those apps probally auto restart. This is the reason you should not use a task killer. It actually causes more battery usage if you auto kill since auto kill, auto restart cycle uses battery/CPU time.

If you have Titanium, you can just freeze it and it won't show in your app drawer. I am not sure if you can remove it and still have messaging work, but here is a link to remove it from the zipped ROM via 7-Zip file manage(free) that Scott put together. Check it out as you can remove things you don't want and add things to the ROM zip to your liking. He also updates on what to leave alone. http://www.scottsroms.com/showthrea...od-CleanROM-before-installing-v1-0-10-12-2011
Completely removing the stock mms.apk will totally break all messaging function.
Damn, I guess I will freeze it and see what it does, thanks guys

When you say will do the same thing as well are you talking about removing from the app drawer or killing all messaging functionality?

Have you tried to send an MMS? The last time I did this back on the OG Evo, SMS worked fine, but MMS wouldn't work anymore.
Alright...so I just downloaded the Facebook App for my phone, and when I attempt to upload a new status message, the app just force closes itself. I want to know if anyone else is experiencing this and if there is a fix for this?
I am not sure if this makes a difference, but I am currently running on Slim ICS.
Facebook has been...and probably will be the single most hated app ever created that everyone has.
Every single version made never works right.
I've actually sat my phone on to of my router...with all other processes off......and still took 4min to even open the app

Friend of mine using samsung 7plus on stock rom also having the same problem..still cannot resolve...if u dont mind..u can use other facebook apps..such as friendcaster..
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDEsInVrLmNvLnNlbmFiLmJsdWVOb3RpZnkiXQ..
i strongly suggest this. its not perfect, but i would say its the best facebook app out there. def better than the default. one major feature that makes it stand out is PUSH notifications for EVERYTHING...not just messages, friend requests, etc.

Haha, but mines does not work at all ever since all the updates. Has been really annoying having to log on to FB using a web browser (I use Chrome Beta or Dolphin. Either works for me) and having to update my status like that. Mines does not FC, but only when trying to update my status. Otherwise, I can basically do everything else, just cannot write a new status update.
It seems to work perfect in diferent roms. I been using euphoria for a few days and it works like a charm

Yeah, I know what you mean about the battery thing. That's why I just stopped using it, and from one of the suggestions on top, used Friendcaster up until when I deactivated my account about 5 days ago. I agree with that person that it is not perfect, but at least it gets the job done.

So If you want to try out Facebook home on your x2 I found a way. I'm on CM9 and I modified my build.prop file to make it seem as if I was running a Samsung galaxy s3. Then it will work. There is no lag on Facebook home and it works fine. Leave any questions in the comments
Thanks for the info. How do you like Facebook home?

Most stable i could find . Maybe (if i DO have some time) It won't be the best jelly bean rom out there xD

I think the talkback is just an accessibility bug for samsung devices. Only happens when an app is using accessibility.
dev claims to have fixed the Samsung SMS bug. haven't tried it yet.
added several new options. most notably (for me) was the option to use this as the lock screen. went ahead and went premium!
