is there any stock firmware without creepy Pre installed Facebook app... i dont want to root my device ..
Nope, just force close both Facebook items in /settings/apps/ and then close them and they won`t show up or get a package disabler from the Play Store.
I used this to get rid of Facebook and Facebook App Manager.

Hi,
I am currently on Galaxy S2, Gingerbread 2.3.3, and am planning to uninstall the System app Google Maps using Titanium Backup.
For now I will use a third party app (Sygic). However in the future I may want to install it later, but if possible I will choose to install it as a normal app instead of restoring the system app.
Questions -
1. If I remove Maps, will it affect any other part of the system that you would like to caution me about?
2. If I replace the system app with normal app, will I be able to upgrade to next version of android whenever it's rolled out for my phone?
You may just freeze it...
But as I know, there is no problem after removed it from system. I've my maps removed as system as well and installed with Burt Maps which Is non-system app.
PS, if you installed custom Rom, you won't get official update anymore.
Won't effect system upgrade.

what android version you are using?
if you use android 4.0 or above
you can just go to manage apps and find google+ to disable
if you use android 2.2/2.3
i suggest you root the phone and remove it by some app or titanium backup
or you go to google play and disable the auto update of the google +

hi
i use my google account on 2 devices: galaxy s3 and nexus 10 tab.
i recently flashed on my s3 a paranoid rom. there, i was asked to sign in to my google account (like always when u set up a phone) but then it downloaded automatically all apps i had on my phone before (under play store ALL) and id also knew, which apps i just use on my tablet and did not install those!
know, i finally found which rom i prefer to use from now on (cyanomod).
does anybody know how to force playstore to restore the device like id happend on the other rom?
and NO, have no other backups of my app, and the app data is not importent, i just dont want to download all apps manually.

I think they are system app and auto updated when u connect to wifi. So dont need to worry.
i dont think so, infoprovided installed again and cleanmaster says its virus
also malwarebytes finds system upgrade app as a malware

Before you noticed the apps installed, had you installed any other apps from google play or from apk files?
I've had apps in past that showed ads and when i tried to click out of them they auto installed other apps in background.
Just out of curiosity, have you tried uninstalling them? and if yes did they come back?
And I maybe wrong on this but I think google play checks the apps on it's store for virus's, so see if the apps you mentioned are on the play store, if they are not, then it being downloaded from another source.
If thats the case, you really need to backtrack to when you first noticed them and what you had installed up to 3 or more days before you noticed them.
its not from playstore, its from a diffrent source, i uninstalled infoprovided before and return after a few days
and i found the culprit, its the FWupgradeprovider, it can install or update app without the users consent, but my device is not rooted so i cant remove it. maybe there is another way to remove it?
Hello
How can I find what program keeps reinstalling google play store, framework, knox stuff. Where is it even getting the apk from since I delete the file and shut of the wifi/data.
Is there a app that is good at monitor what wrote a file and installed a app?
