[Q] Can we have a APK dissable/removable list? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Similar to what we had for the SGS I/II, I would like to have a comprehensive APK List for what we can delete safely and what we need to leave on.
Here is the link:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AthriV78mnxQdE1lVzJOaE8tdmlJc1VjcUFydGhlc2c
It is shared, so we can edit to our needs.

You mean like this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634624

yep! ty!

Very good post mate and i totally agree when root is available many of us wil want to freeze the bloatware to get even batter battery life it would be great to have a spreadhseet to know what programs are safe to freeze (or remove but ill just freeze them in case)

Bumping this thread this needs to be made a sticky mods like the similar one on the SGSII forums.

Great idea OP, but your Google docs spreadsheet does not seem to be shared properly--it says I have to request access to the file .

Blur APK's to remove ?

All,
I have searched the Atrix forum looking for a list of the app names (apk's) that I can safely remove using Titanium Backup. However, I have not been able to locate a complete list so far. I definitely want to remove some of the bloatware on this phone, but I would like to get a list together so I can do it all at once.
Any further info you an provide is much appreciated !

Which Apks Can I Remove from My Phone?

i got an inspire 4g running a sense rom called virtuous unity. i want to remove unneeded apks from my phone like, VoiceDialer.apk and Facebook.apk. which unneeded apks can i safely delete from my phone?
You can do a google search on each apk that your not sure about. Make sure you back up your phone first just in case you remove something you want to keep or you need. There are web sites that list all the apps on cm and tells what they are. I'm sure there is alot of info on your rom.

Sort results in market/play store?

Hi! Is there any way to sort search results on the Google market e.g. after downloads or views or rating? Thanks.

Sent from my NexusHD2 using xda app-developers app
Not currently possible in the app, but it should be possible on the website.
Yeah on the website it works but whyyyy is Google not integrating it in the app.
Isn't there the possibility to integrate this function in a mod somehow?
Thx
Sent from my NexusHD2 using xda app-developers app
Even on the website, the only options are by Popularity and by Relevance.
I wish i could sort by Rating, by Developer, alphabetically...
google seems to make it on purpose not to let you sort the results... MADAFAKAZ!! :x

It can barely find information about anyone asking about sorting results from play store. xda developers must be only ones who think outside the box.
How we can make it sort every search results as i want.
Like downloads, stars e.t.c.?
Sorting seems to have been removed from the website as well. Damn it Google, why must you turn everything to ****.
I've just had to reinstall after a full reset, and this has to be one of the worst aspects of the play store. I wish I understood programming, but is there anyone can make an app to fix this lack of sortability and lack of filtering?
I'm with @Newtoys, why does google always go one step to far and mess up perfectly good things?
Agreed: Google makes it Harder, not Easier!
Searching for a small business collaboration app
Only returns results with app that have the word "collaboration" in the title?
If I was a developer, I would be reluctant to ever get involved,
how are potential customers supposed to find your App if you don't give it a name that sound too much alike all the other apps in the same category.
And Furthermore: I don't care about the icon, I want to be able to scan an encapsulation of the capacity of the app... Who cares what color the button is going to be on my screen !!!
If Google is the "Ultimate Search Engine" why then can't I use a Google search to go through the Play Store Apps..?
NO !!! Instead it returns a listing of Other Web Sites and the Apps that they recommend ?
I am with you guys on this. Been wondering this for years now. I also found it weird that when I try and Google search this issue, this thread is the only one relevant to our problem. I'd be willing DL a modified play store app even. The worst is when I want to see about any new/updated apex themes and I have to browse a library of themes I've seen before.

lol, exact same f##@ up when im going thru Layers themes !! Usually we need the latest updated themes since they work as expected with updated AOSP Roms...but stupid google wont let me sort a list of apps by the 'last updated' date !!
Any 3rd party apps that browse the entire play store app catalogue and have the ability to sort them by their last updated date ?
same here... i want to sort apps by it size since the day start using play store but never see such feature or any proper useful sorting method in play store.. and when google for sprting apps, i end up right here... hope some1 has the solution for this... seriously...

Gmail APP SUCKS

Hi There
Guys, I Can't believe
the new version of Gmail app for android is completely TRASH.
you can't even download your attachments. I have two attachments, one is "ZIP" file and the second is "PGP".
ZIP can't be downloaded cause it may has got malicious code. PGP can't cause there is no app that can open this kind of file..
Who the hell you think you are google? that deciding what to with my files?
GUYS help???? any one ?
I faced no problem like what you are listing. My zip files download without any problem and so does all other files. Just because you cannot download something it doesn't become complete trash. Asking for information and help does not mean venting out your anger here. Give details about your device, ROM, when it happened etc and maybe someone would be able to help you. You saying such things frankly puts people off...

I Can't give you links, the forum said:
To prevent spam on the XDA forums, ALL new users prevented from posting outside links in their messages. After approximately 10 posts, you will be able to post outside links. Thank you for understanding!
ASUS Transformer Infinity TF700T - Android 4.1.1 - Stocked - Gmail 4.2.1
Best thing to do is post in tf700 forum as there will be many users of your device they will be in a better position to help you. For temporary purpose you can uninstall the latest update. Go to settings-apps-gmail and choose uninstall update and go to market page of gmail and unselct auto update option. This will restore your previous working version of gmail till you can figure out the real problem

If anyone is interested adfree can also be downloaded directly from the developer's website - adfree.bigtincan.com/adfree.apk. Unfortunately as I'm a new poster I cannot post the above as a URL.
Can i with this app ignore browsers ? I want ad free without browsers, it's possible ? If yes, how to ?
thank you very much...

question. I installed this yesterday, everything is great, up until i tried playing anime videos from my dolphin browser and i cant play those videos anymore, tried to uninstall this app and even the browser and still cant play videos, the site will not play the video if there is an adblocker. What do you think can fix this?

If I understand your situation correctly, you:
Installed AdFree
Used AdFree to apply the custom hosts list
Had problems with playing videos from one (or more) web sites
Removed AdFree
Continue to have the same problems with playing videos
If this is roughly the sequence of events, then you should not need to un-install AdFree.
In fact, uninstalling AdFree probably left your hosts file in its modified state (with ad-related sites still blocked).
Instead, you can click on the Revert button in AdFree. This will return your hosts file to its original condition. This also ought to restore joy to whatever web sites are finding AdFree disagreeable.
This should allow you do run ad-free most of the time (click Download & Install Hosts), and disable ads just long enough to view the videos you wish (click Revert).
Hi all. I see this thread has been quite for quite some time. I am hoping someone can help. I have been a user of AdFree for a while. I noticed that one website I frequent is impacted in that I can no longer see the comments section of that particular website. I added the domain in question to the "white list" but that hasn't helped. Can anyone who understands this sort of thing help? I love the functionality it provides, but not being able to comment on my favorite site is an issue. Anyone? Thanks!!
@ShermCraig The workaround I use in these rare cases is to open AdFree, and tap the "Revert" button. Then I can do all the usual stuff on the offending web site (or app). After I'm done, I once again open AdFree and tap "Download & Install Hosts" to regain ad-protection.
Yes, it's ugly, but it is actually pretty quick, but I did promise only a workaround, not a solution.
Question: What do you mean when you say "added the domain in question to the 'white list'"? I don't see that AdFree supports any kind of whitelisting.

I've actually done this and yes it does work temporarily. Unfortunately (for me) I visit the site so frequently that it becomes too much. Trying something else.
In answer to your question: http://adfree.bigtincan.com/ - log in, and there is an exception list.
thanks
