Hi guys,
I am using EVO 3D with stock 4.0.3 rom, unlocked and rooted and running Titanium backup.
I would like to get rid of some stuff to make space and improve speed in the long run.
What apps could I safely remove from the stock rom using Titanium backup, and which one should I definatly stay on there?

Check the OP's of the "Senseless" ROM's in the development forum and they often list what components have been removed. Sense hasn't been completely removed or they wouldn't work so they are more de-bloated than de-Sensed.
You could start with Team d3rp and SOS M "Senseless" ROM's.

alright, I have a friend with a vibrant and i have rooted her phone so that i could make a NAND for her. i want to flash a rom for her and i have decided on either CM7 or MIUI and i'm leaning more towards MIUI so i was wondering which of the Vibrant MIUIs is the best. I've seen quite a few in the Bible but can't really decipher much of a difference between each of them and even the official MIUI. so any sugestions?
I'm also open to suggestion for any other roms. And if you flash from a Froyo to GB rom, do you have to ODIN bootloaders?
in my experience miui lithium 4 seems to work the best cause battery life is better than most gb roms and is smooth and stable with tons of customization. You don`t really need gb bootloaders (i never flashed them cause if you screw up then your phone will be brickd)
hope that helped

Is there an ODINable GB stock rom with the bootloaders?

i don`t think there is but don`t take my word for it
I wouldn't mess with bootloaders on your female friends phone without her permission, as that's one of the very few ways you can completely kill a phone.
Anyway, if CM7 and MIUI are your popular choices, fear not. Only ROMs based on i9000 International Galaxy S leaks require Gingerbread bootloaders. MIUI and CM7 are built from the ground up.
Since this phone is going to a girl, I would definitely go with MIUI. The theming available will blow her mind.
There are 4 different MIUI variants for the Vibrant. The stock MIUI for the Vibrant, the stable Revamped SS version, the more experimental Lithium version (same creator as SS. Lithium is the ROM where he tests things), and finally there is the stock MIUI with the Enhancer Mod flashed over it.
If you want the least fuss + features, I recommend using the SS version. All the good tweaks, and very stable.
Thanks for the advice. Is stared out on a Vibrant but never flashed anything custom to it and then i got fthe SGS4G where you need the correct bootloaders to access recovery so i wasnt sure if it was the same for the Vibrant. When i flash MIUI, can i do a CWM data restore or should i just use Titanium Backup, etc. to backup and restore through that?

When you first flash MIUI, it'll install the stock MIUI kernel which should give you ClockWorkMod 5, with all the toys normally associated with ClockWorkMod. The only catch is that MIUI as well as CM7 will change your file system to yaffs2, so the only way to return to a non MIUI/CM7 ROM is to ODIN back to stock. You can't restore a Froyo backup because the backup uses the wrong file system and you'll get boot loops.
Anyway, to answer your question, yes. You can backup files and apps the same as with any other ROM using Titanium manager or an equivalent program. MIUI even has it's own backup called MIUI backup that is often recommended over Titanium Backup by developers.
Oh, but of course don't restore any system apps you picked up from earlier ROMs. That'll royally screw up MIUI. Just 3rd party apps.
Hey guys, My current rom right now is CM7 with imoseyens kernel, its great and all but i am experiencing things i didnt experience before i.e. bugs and lags and I am just wondering how can i go back to the original cm7 rom+kernel without loosing all my apps (cracked ones). Thats all i really care about. I am rooted via the 1 click root in ScoobarSTI's tutorial in the general section. Thanks for reading
Just back up the apps using Titanium back up. You should really pay the Devs. And I've experienced problems with the imo kernel I'm on sense now tell there's a actually a kernel with no bugs on aosp.
I have have so much apps and i wish i could support them all unfortunately i can only support a couple
If your going to be using the same cm7 again then just flash it on top of your current setup. I will retain your apps and flash the stock kernel again.
Well, I am learning a lot of things on HOW TO ANDROIDS. I am glad my iPhone broke and that I got an android now. It's so awesome, I decided to go with Thunderstick since it has a working MyVerizon and NFL Mobile. Thanks for your help guys.
ya, just use titanium backup. and make sure to backup your rom, so if you do lose your apps somehow, you an just restore the rom and get them back
I just rooted my Gs2, I have flashed my captivate many times: roms/ kernels/ modems. But it's been so long i having trouble remembering what next. I don't want to flash a rom as of yet, waiting for ics, cm9. but i do want to take advantage of being rooted, I would love to Uninstall all bloat ware, and freeze all apps that always seem to be running in the background even tho i auto kill them all the time. So.... What are things i should do to acheive the above "wants" and what else do i need "apps" etc. I might think about flashing a rom sooner than later. What is this odin mobile or cwm mobile i have read about? Where to get it? I have flashed roms in the past using cwm by putting rom on sd, and flashing. I DO NOT want to trip my rom counter !! thanks sorry for all the questions.

You can use titanium backup to freeze or uninstall the bloatware. In terms of flashing ROMs I use entropy's kernel which has clockworkmod and works the same way as you're used to. I'm not sure how to change the kernel without incrementing the flash counter though.
I tried installing busy box, said there was a problem, try reinstalling custom ROM. But I haven't flashed a ROM. Only rooted using Odin.

Hi
Im new to rooting phones and have rooted my Samsung galaxy s3 GT-I9300. Im running 4.1.1 on it and rooted it using odin and CF-ROOT-SGS3-v6.tar.
Ive got CWM manager and superuser on it and have backed up my apps using titanium back up and backed up the rom using ROM manager.
What I want to know is can anyone recommend a ROM that is like the stock one but with added features such as multi window and takes away a lot off the added Samsung stuff thats not really needed and also runs smooth without eating up too much battery?
Can I just update my kernel or do I need to install a custom ROM?
Can I install the new ROM using ROM manager?
Do I need to move any backed up apps and current rom off the phones memory to an external SD card before installing a custom rom?
Do I need to take into account the Baseband version (mine is I9300XXELJ2) when looking what roms I can install or does it simply have to be for the S3 I9300?
Sorry if my questions seem a bit daft or if Ive not given enough information. Im new to all this and want a custom rom that will hopefully offer a bit more than the standard one but dont want to brick my phone
Thanks in advanced.

I would recommend sotmax ROM or android revolution ROM which is both close to stock ROM and my favorites. But you have to try for yourself to know.
You can use custom kernel after rooting. But read the op to see if compatible.
ROM manager can install ROMs but only with the premium version if I'm not mistaken. Alternatively just use cwm to flash. Fast and easy.
Backup apps depends on what you using. Titanium backup? Usually backed up apps are safely stored. And can restore in any ROM after flashing.
Baseband usually will be along with custom ROM.
All in all if you read the op in first post of each thread and follow steps. Bricking is usually a non issue. But as always make a full backup before flashing.
Happy flashing

No need to move the backups anywhere unless you're gonna wipe your internal SD.
Baseband doesn't matter, just flash anything for the i9300.
And don't ask for best ROMs, it's against the rules

So does the baseband in the rom have to match the one on my phone or can I install any rom and my baseband will just change and all will be fine?
This is going to seem stupid but what do you mean by op?
To install or flash a rom using CWM do I just click recovery mode in the app and continue from there?
Thanks for the quick response,
first, read the basic guides.
op means the first post
BASICS.

You can't have Samsung features on an AOSP (aka stock Android) based ROM. Its integrated into Samsung ROMs.
For best of both world's you can dual boot two ROMs using Siyah kernel 1.8.9 eg. A Samsung ROM (ex: stock) and an AOSP based one (ex: CM10.1)
Before experimenting copy backups to an external SD card or your PC.

Other than that it is like stock

discussing what's the best /most stable /feature - rich ROM is against the rules
I have an international EVO 3D GSM with 4EXT and S-OFF and I tried different custom ICS ROMs but still having stability problems:
- Periodically loosing phone functionality.
- Random reboots.
- Randomly loosing 3G data.
I want to drop back to stock ROM/kernel still keeping 4EXT recovery, S-OFF and I need full 3D functionality.
Which ICS based ROM I can use to become as close as possible to stock?
Thanks.
