Hello,
What you need to do to get rid of SuperSU is root your S5, even if temporarily. Then, you can use root access in ES File Explorer to delete SuperSU, and then you can either unroot or keep root.

I need the stock vibrant text msg app

My boss wanted me to upgrade his phone, so i did... he doesn't like the stock app that's being used in this build (xipher). Is there anything i can do to get him back to the stock one with the bubbles? Thanks in advance!
Yikes hopefully he or she doesn't fire you. Just kidding I believe you need to push the samsung messaging .apk with adb.
P. S. Be prepared to get attacked for posting in the wrong section
Opps... realized this is in the wrong spot. Can a mod please move it?
can you help me figure out how to do this? i downloaded all the stock apk files... is it mms.apk? how would i go about installing it? the phone has root, root explorer and astro.

With Root explorer you'd move the Samsung .apk into /system/app

I have some bloatware i wanna remove, like 'Lets golf hd, 'fun&downloads' and a couple of more.
But it seems like i Titanium backup cant find the apk's. I run ICS 4.0.4 rooted and unlocked bootloader, and use explorer to system dir, looking through 'system/app' No apk's
But if i look on 'vendor/app' i see the apk's there. So i copied the apk's to 'system/app', but no luck

Thanks, helped a little bit. But not totally. Some progs are back after reboot. And if i wanna restore them and place them on SD they stop working.
But Still i wonder what is wrong here? Why is it like this? Some screw up from Android Dev? Or Sony?
And i did search, for 2 whole days before i made this post, google, xda, sony forum.
Still your suggestion did not show up in my searches.
But do u suggest we shall not post if our searches does not reach what other ppl find?
XDA is kinda big, there is a lot answers, ..and questions
So for your information, i will still post questions in the Neo section if i do not find it in the Neo section But i promise i will not post it in the ARC section
And to the case: The thread u suggested worked, to a limit. not 100% for my needs.
But for other with a Neo like me, that wanna go through this, please try the link codephus suggested: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26758586#post26758586
Also the App can be found in google play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...leanup.Inteks.org&feature=search_result&hl=en
Sony Neo and ICS 4..4 are easy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26980804&postcount=3
well i was trying to encourage others towards doing a through search before they post
anyway, this might sound stupid and you might tried it before but: have you tried flashing 4.0.4 ftf without the "vendor.sin"?

If you want delete the apk's use then root uninstaller from the playstore, need root acces, delete the apk's and then reboot, works good, even i used it

Remove bloatware
Hi @all!
I'm running Android 4.0.4 rooted on locked bootloader Xperia Neo.
Don't know what's the matter but it seems that bloatware in /system/vendor/app/ (such as 'Fun & Downloads', 'Let's Golf', etc) cannot be deleted.
I tried to remove those packages from SManager, Es Explorer and Root Uninstaller with root permission but they just refuse (it gives an error).
Any idea?? How did you remove them and why I cannot?
Tnx a lot!

So, use Root Explorer and navigate to folder and press Mount R-W button, than you ll be able to delete it.

That was quick!
Sorry, I forgot to mention that I mounted the partition with R/W permissions.
So, everybody can remove .apk's from /system/vendor/app/?

Ok guys. It might be just my phone.
I'm root and the partition is mounted with R/W permissions and yet it doesn't permit the files to be deleted. It just says that they cannot be deleted.
I tried with several file managers, such as SManager or ES File Explorer.

Hi janrck. Do you have a Chinese variant Ascend Mate 2?
If you do then you are probably not fully rooted, Root Checker will tell you that you have root and supersu is installed, but it's not full root.

But be warned, I do not recommend you trying this unless you have some idea of what you are doing
Good Luck !
Thanks! im going to try it!
