Hello there i think i am gonne root the galaxy s6 edge.
So i can delete some apps etc with titanium backup..
Maybe it will help for the random reboots that i have is to delete som apps to free up the ram..
I dont know if it will work but i can try it.
There are plenty. Milk music. Milk video. Any of the Microsoft apps. Most of the apps placed by my carrier I was able to remove as well. Facebook was the first one I removed. There are plenty of others that are safe to remove

Hi Guys,
unfortunately a friend of mine has lost his gmail account (someone broke his password), and therewith all his apps bound to that account.. of course thats at the moment not extremely bad, because the apps are still on his phone, but if he might update the rom or buy a new phone, the paid apps will be gone.
therefore i am wondering, where these apps are stored. i found out, that most apps are stored in /data/app, but for example new applications, which i bought lets say an hour ago, are not stored there (think that this has something todo with 24h refund).. has someone experience with this? will those apps work, which i bought and then copied the apk file from data/app to a backup?
Yes, they will definatly work. you can use "appManager Pro" to back up the apps realy simply, or you can use "mybackup pro" to back up all your apps. Google seems to have no DRM in place whatsoever for the app store, so you can back up your apps manualy or with the above apps and they will still work, on any phone!
yes okay, the first app (appmanager) works, but only with some apps, not with all
for example i have the app "colorUp Lite", there stands "geschützt"/"protected".. any idea how the programmer managed to protect their app? and how to store that?
edit: i found out that every app, which can be backuped is stored in /data/app.. for example the app from above "colorUp Lite" has no apk-file in that folder.. theres just a zip-file with some pictures and templates in it.. where do these apps store their binary on the phone??
I upgraded yesterday to 1.1.A.08 in India on OTA and got two fresh apps installed, Roller Coaster & Backup/Restore. The Roller Coaster is trial and asks to purchase after just one trial. I dont need the app anymore and want to uninstall it. Similarly the license for my Wisepilot has also expired and I want to uninstall that too. Erasing these two apps will release around 10mb memory free in my MINI. Can anybody tell me how to do it. A tried a few apps including the default application manager. But all of them are unable to uninstall default apps.
Yups even i tried to remove those unwanted games and playnow, wisepilot etc, but its now allowing me to uninstall. Its crap from SE, why they want to force us to keep unwanted paid apps.
Space eaters... until 2.1 or a rooted version the apps will be always present...
I've got a bunch of crap from my operator that consumes space and memory, and I didn't use them...
I recently purchased a Sprint Galaxy S2 used on ebay.
My process with every phone I've ever had is fairly straight forward: root it and delete bloatware using Titanium Backup, which in turn freed up enough space to integrate apps and dav cache into the rom, freeing up a lot of app storage space on the phone.
I rooted my s2 with framaroot and deleted bloatware, but it didn't seem to free up much memory- less than a megabyte. I suspected something was amiss and tried a different tactic: I converted Google+ from a system app to a user app. Success, but no space freed. I can't even convert Google+ back to a system app because there is no space for it on the rom!
Other root apps indicate the same rom freespace, so it isn't just titanium. Any thoughts as to why this is happening? Any way to fix this?

I'm guessing you're running stock firmware? My best advice is to use a custom stock firmware that has customisable app options.
Hi, just like the title, I'm wondering what pre-installed apps do you guys removed from your Grand 2 after rooting? Also, what modifications did you guys do such as what's your launcher, rom etc.
No need to delete any app, If any app is useless for you just disable it
As for modifications... Xposed firmware! Nothing more to say lol.
Deleted apk! 115mb free space

Do you face any problems or errors after removing all those?

KNOX and InteractiveTutorial.apk (Help app) for me.
New delete.
Are many of you noticed that there is a hidden folder (.thumbnails) 0-600 <+ mb in size. Which is nothing more than a video player cache. Therefore, I delete the video player. I deleted the folder thumbnails. Thus, not unexpectedly develop the already much less space on your phone.:good:
I have a HTC One M7 phone which i have a buyer for. I will be getting the new Samsung S6 in the next few weeks. In the mean time i will be using an old nokia phone.
How should i transfer the 50+ apps i have (free/paid) to a new phone ?
Should i just make a note of all the apps i have on a piece of paper then download again ? would i need to buy some of them again ? i.e whatsapp
I have noticed on google play from my computer browser that its got my apps on there, would it be easy to do it from there ?
Hi, in Google play, my apps, all u have all the apps you've installed, so u can install them again, no problem.
Astro File Manager lets you backup apps to sd card
You can download My App Sharer from google playstore which can send all apps from one device to another.It also backups all apps in storage.
Hope it helps !!!!!
