There's several threads on this. You can delete them (use Titanium Backup to delete the apps) but you can't change or add new ones.
But the real answer is: You're on XDA; root and install ICS or a custom ROM; problem solved. If you just want stock, go to an android enthusiast forum.

Is it a case of either dealing with it, or just changing ROM? I like touchwiz and would love to keep it, I just want to change the icons (though from reading that's impossible)?

Not sure what you mean by "dealing with it" but I'm pretty sure the answer above is what you're looking for.

As in I like the app draw itself, I just don't like the presets, though I guess they won't ever be able to be changed unless Samsung releases the source code.
Never mind! Its no biggie, just weird that they wouldn't add customzation with such a primary feature.

***WELCOME***
Welcome everyone who has a question, but just can't seem to find an answer. My hope is that this thread will reduced the extremely large number of new threads being created for every little issue each user is having. The rules are very simple. Please follow them, as it's just not that hard.
1) Absolutely NO FLAMING. I am completely inflexible on this rule. If i catch you do it, you will get an xda vacation (will be banned, in case you don't get it). Also, just to be clear, "use the search function" is not an acceptable answer in this thread.
2) Before you post you MUST read THIS. Trust me, I will know if you didn't.
3) Anyone can post any issue they're having with their HTC Espresso: myTouch 3G Slide in this thread, but you MUST include a detailed description of your issue. If after a couple days your issue has not been addressed, please feel free to bump it.
4) Remember you are asking for help, and as the saying goes "it's easier to catch flies with honey than vinegar. So be nice to those who are helping you.
5) Please quote the person you are replying to, it will make it MUCH easier for people to sort through the many messages that will end up in here.
6) If you find your Question answered, find your original Post and change the font colour of the text into dark green. And at the bottom of the question post either provide a link to the answer or Quote the answer,
This way it can be easier for any moderator to delete Clutter so the thread can be easily searched and read by other users.
This is an experiment based on a suggestion by other users, so we will see how it goes. If all goes well then i hope that this thread will be a great help to many new members. If not then we will make adjustments. I want to thank all those who will be contributing to this forum for their time in advance.
Note: If you feel your thread has been moved here in error, please PM me and politely ask me to move the related posts back into the original thread. Sometimes the wrong threads get moved here by accident. Please also provide a clear explanation of why you think this topic deserves it's own thread. Angry tirades and rants will be of no use, and will more likely than not simply get you a warning or a ban.
Also if you dont have something important to say and your just going to complain then dont post.
great thoughts, also congrats on mod status sir

I agree it has gone off topic a little bit, But when nothing new is happening and people just want to add there 2cents then that happens. I will keep an eye on it though. I know the 3 Devs working on getting Root are working there butts off to do it and I have faith we will see it.
The good thing is, it seems rooting is not a matter of "if", just "when", which I never have a problem with.
i just hope that the "when" is "sooner" rather than "later" because im getting "pissed" about this "bloatware" >.<
Wifi Tether, apps to sd, froyo 2.2?
So now that root has happened I know a lot of us are interested in added functionality of our devices. So far mine is stock but with live wallpapers and some free'd up memory. However, I'd like to use wifi tether, apps to sd, and preferably get froyo 2.2 on here. My question is do we have a lot of devs working toward this now or is it too soon after root? I don't mean to seem impatient here and I understand there is still a lot of focus on getting everyone to the point of root since it was difficult for most of us. Anyway, any status update or something would be nice.
Answered quickly: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6845610&postcount=11
Thank you!
Personally i know of 5 or 6 devs working on projects for the slide... If I remember correctly, another couple are going to start on it very soon also
Not sure if this is a dumb question... When the G1 was rooter, shortly after other methods of rooting were found. I fear some of us will endlessly have the problem of getting ADB to recognize the device in recovery. What are the chances of another root method coming available for the Slide?
if an update comes out, there will be more methods im sure... just not sure on a timeline for them

Fermunky, I've been following your problem because I was having it too. What finally got it for me was, I formated a different sd card, put it in the phone, removed all software ( htc sync, pdanet) and removed all drivers I could find using usbdeview. Then rebooted with phone unplugged, installed pdanet following all their instructions, then the loop worked perfect. Good luck
Tl;dr version, i tried it all at the same time and it worked
Widgets
hey, is it possible for someone to make some of the htc widgets compatible with adw launcher? I have the slidemeroot rom with live wallpapers and like it a lot. However, I miss the variety of widgets such as multiple calendar views now that I have to run adw launcher to get the live wallpapers. I'm looking for a way to get the best of both worlds and have live wallpapers along with the sense widgets. Is it possible? or better yet, get live wallpapers on stock rom without adw launcher so it works with my modes as well (cuz I miss that too). Maybe I just need to give up on the live wallpapers
can we have links to these listed roms?
Can't get superUser on legend to slide
I have been working/searching on the issue for a while and just cant figure it out.
every file is called superuser.apk and I am pretty sure they are all ROM/device specific. I can't get them to install.
Could someone help me with the following:
1. The source for the correct superuser.apk for legendTOslide Please
2. Do I adb push? In recovery? In device mode? sample command?
Thank you

You can get Live Wallpapers to work in ADW Launcher, but the HTC Widgets are bound to Sense UI.

Can someone upload the Flipfont application apk? Accidentally deleted it and i want to change fonts now.
lol I'm a bit confused myself...but why don't you just pull the settings.apk from a ROM or something...?
You know. It's been a really long time since I was on these forums. I used to come here before for winmo devices (5-6.1). Everyone was very helpful and understanding. What's with the accusatory tone? No intention of "lying" to you, just a misunderstanding on my part. I thought my request for the FlipFont apk was innocent enough, certainly not underhanded.
So I didn't uninstall FlipFont. Turns out the One Click Lag Fix causes custom fonts to not work. But the OCLF app includes a font installer. I thought Flipfont was broken, but it was the OCLF.
Sorry if I came off wrong. I intend to be helpful as much as possible. Don't let a couple users discourage you. ( yes, including myself) We all have our good and bad days¡! IMO as long as you have a legit question, we as a community should think before we post, and do our best to help...Hope you see this.

OCLF and Fonts
With all that being said... Have we found a way to install custom fonts with the OCLF applied? Mine currently shows 'an error occurred retrieving the option list'
However, on my girlfriend's phone, it shows a couple of the fonts that were installed.
Is there a correct and incorrect way to install fonts for tOCLF to see them?

Can someone please upload this app or post its location from where it can be pulled off one of your ROMs? Im an Epic user and would like to try and get it working on my phone, TIA!
It doesn't appear to be an app. It is part of the settings.apk. It is built into it. Just go to the dev section and download a rom and pull the settings.apk from it. It probably wont work on your epic.
Pull it/push it and let us know.
Just do a backup first.

Now let's please comment on the subject of the thread! No Hassle!
Ok so I like and use some of the apps (and widgets, but less so for them) that came pre-installed on my phone. Chiefly among these is Quickoffice but there are others. I would love to flash CM7 or something but I don't want to lose those apps. From the experience I had flashing ROMs onto my old Captivate, those pre-installed apps don't get replace on the new ROM when using Titanium Backup (not sure why). Is there any way around my dilemma? Thanks.
If the answers in your other thread on this topic are not sufficient, could you please be more specific about what you need to know?
sorry, when i was told i had posted that other thread in the wrong section of the forums I wrote this one in the correct section to replace it...little did I know my other thread would be moved here as well. My bad.
Hi all,
I have just installed lightning rom 2.5 and I have noticed that under both Phone and Contacts, there are missing tabs.
e.g.
Under Phone, the contacts tab is missing. I used to be able to slide to the right for more tabs.
How do I go about adding more tabs?
I tried searching but every time I add the word "tab" I get the Samsung Galaxy Tablet threads instead.
Also, under Security, the "SIM Change Alert" and "Remote controls" doesn't seem to be working, every time I tried checking the box, it freezes for awhile and then it says the setup has stopped working.
I wanted to post this in the lightning rom thread, but there's a 10 post restriction, and as such, I am posting here.
I hope someone can kindly help me.
Thanks in advance.

I don't know about remote control or sim change alert, but it is a well known change in ICS that those tabs are removed purposely, in their infinite wisdom. I don't agree with it, but it is what it is. One of the many reasons I'm staying on Gingerbread until find an overwhelming reason to go to ICS.
So if this ROM is ICS based, that's your answer.

That's cause Nexus S is running AOSP android, and Galaxy S series (including the GS2) runs TouchWiz, which Samsung, in their infinite wisdom, have modded to their liking.
Edit to add: Lite'ning ROM is based on Samsung stock, so it uses the same system apps. This will hold true for any ROM based on Samsung stock, unless the ROM chef changes out specific apps, like the phone in this case.

Thanks for the clarification. I am new to android and have been reading up on how to root/flash custom Rom on my TF201, SG2 and NS one by one. Took me several hours of reading and searching, but I have managed to get them all rooted/flashed without bricking any of them
This forum is loaded with heaps of info, but sometimes it's a bit hard to search for some specific stuff;the 10 post limitation on custom rom threads make it hard for me to ask for help from the author.
Just wondering... if S2's lite'ning ROM is based on Samsung stock (non AOSP), how do people change out specific apps?

You need to be rooted, and you replace certain apk files in the /system/app folder. But you need to be certain to use files compatible with your particular build of Android.

sorry... i dont know this it :crying:
Well you guys like to rage... that's obvious, now since he is in the wrong section, thing he obviously didn't know. You could try to post a nice answer too...
I think it's possible to remove that warning message, but not in the stock ROM.
Just leave it on. GPS does not waste any battery until it is used by an app.
It is possible to remove this warning message as long as you are rooted. You just have to delete (or move to different directory) LearningClient.apk from /system/app. I haven't found any side effects of this.
well, I have the unlocked bootloader and am root, in its day remove all the system apps I did not like or did not use and replaced it with another of the same or better function, I'm really happy and to become my "rom ", but of course, if as you say to delete the app that controls the gps ... that would be a big problem, since it would be extremely difficult to find an app to control it properly and certainly not know what controls sony app. I think perhaps some xml file, but to know what is.
EDIT: WOOO rearly erasing app system learningClient.apk work this!!! THANK SO MUCH GUYS!!!!
