Are you rooted? What ROM are you on?
I generally use Titanium backup (pro) to freeze apps rather then uninstalling.
Most stock VZW moto phones you can freeze any Verizon junk, the games, live wallpapers, IM, but if it's your first time I would do these one by one. Not sure if there is a list made, but this should get you started, good luck
DROID DOES, Apple did...like I forgot when

Location Based Notifications

one of iOS 5's big new features are the notification based alerts/notifications that will built into their new update.
I see that there r some apps one the market currently that try to utilize this technology (notably Geo Note), but Apple will undoubtedly set the standard for fully realizing this idea...for now.
A couple of dev buddies of mine who are iphone users think this will be another game changer. Thoughts???

My cousin was showing me that last night. Thought it was kinda cool. Don't know how useful it would actually be. I figured there were prob already some apps out there like that our would be shortly. Don't think its a game changer.

I haven't seen it myself. And I will certainly allow for the fact that my friends will use anything to trash on android...

Locale is the big android location app. It's been around for years. Having used it I'm not sure what kind of game changer it will be. Location based services are terrible on battery life.

The iOS5 location based notifications are a little different I believe.
For example, you can set it for when you leave somewhere, it might remind you to get your keys. Something to that extent.

Its pretty neat at a technical stand point, but I for one wouldn't use it because it probably has a big impact on battery, so I wouldn't leave of on for half an hour just to get reminded about my keys or to stop by a grocery store.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Just out of curiosity, given maybe 8 meters for good GPS reception would it really be useful since you'd already be well out the door before it could remind you?

I usually realize I forgot my keys when I try to unlock my car. Sounds more like a cheesy gimmick.

He's just speculating about the big brother stuff. Nome of us are important enough for the tracking information to be important. You're crazy if you think you are, and should ditch your smartphone. You're always traceable with it.

Hulu+

Is there a way to get Hulu+ working on the RAZR?
Sent from my DROID RAZR using XDA App
Ran into the same issue. I went to hulu's website on my razr and they said that this device isn't supported yet. I guess we have to wait a little while for it.

Hey guys,
If you're rooted, install Titanium backup. Slip this cluster into your TiBu folder on your SD. Restore app only. Restart.
Enjoy!

Thanks. Which way did you root your RAZR? I have used Pete's Motorola Root tools method for my DX, will it work for the RAZR?
I'm having trouble setting it in titanium. I was wondering if anybody could help

Not that I'm aware of. You need the bootstrap apk.
Then I switched to safestrap.
Use the one click231 for method, it's pretty easy for beginners.

Okay, you may not have unzipped the rar file? Open it up and find 3 files. Those go into your tibu folder.

I have done that I have placed the files in the tibu folder. it should be labeled hulu, right?

Does this work? I made a backup of hulu from my GN and restored it on my RAZR. The app works but reports that it isn't compatible.

The files should not be renamed or placed in a separate folder. I'm not quite sure why yours isn't working.
Does it not even show up in the batch restore menu?

You need to use the backup I posted. The one you've got isn't hacked.

[Q] sabotage rom on an x2?

Will an HTC rom, like sabotage run on an x2?
u cannot flash a rom built for a different phone on the x2 unless it has been ported...

Is it worth learning how to do that?

I don't see the harm in learning how to port roms. Having another ROM to try would be awesome and I'm sure the community would appreciate it.

Where's a good place to start? Certain thread?
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Start with grabbing a system dump of your device, then replacing system/app folder with the files. Afterwards, edit YOUR framework to match the other one. Afterwards, debug.. is that ROM aosp?

yeah is it AOSP? if not and it has sense, it may be a HUGE pain to port to the dx2. id say start with a motoblur rom from like the atrix and port it, even if you dont want to, its a good, easy way to get your feet wet in the android rom world

Tasker and secure setting are cool, Avast! can do more, free WiFi tether, setCPU, busy box and terminal emulator, check out ROMs and sideload better apps. Get out there and explore dude, self education is half the fun.

I think this tool is pretty simple, clear and easy. Just follow the steps and give it a go. In the worst scenario, if you do something wrong, root won't be achieved, so nothing will actually change. But it's really easy, seriously.
