Does anyone have a list of app/bloatware that we can remove safely using Titanium Backup?
Something like a list i saw for Xperia phone:
h t t p : // forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1046699&highlight=safe+to
Could you direct me to such a list? or maybe add to this forum. Thanks.

I think, you should change ".apk" to ".*". It will also remove *.odex files
I will try to use Titanium Backup to freeze them.
More input will be be welcomed. Thanks

I am seriously thinking of buying the lg 4xhd. Only stenho some doubts in relation to their consumption, lack of updates and the impossibility to install custom rooms. Give me your opinion about this equipment.
If you tried uninstalling all these app, tell us what the new cell behavior

I have removed almost every app with some exceptions on the ones that i actually use and like..
The phone is so much faster now and running real smooth.. Power comsumption is MUCH MUCH better..
Am actually very satisfied about it now..
EDIT: I actually decided to remove the rest so i took them from the top and down.. !!! That were the biggest mistake in my life.. Lock screen perfect after that just black screen !
Is there anything i can do now.. ?

I made a hard reset.. ? that is not enough..
So i need to do something like flash with odin or what do you mean.. ? Im kinda lost right now and pretty confused..
sheesh..
I know its a somehow not too new thread but for the records...
you always should back up apps with titanium backup before you remove them.
if you didnt:
it should be possible to get these apks from someone else and restore them on your phone by copying them to the appropriate place.
[edit] you can also just make a backup with the preinstalled backup tool.
reset

I hope this isnt to late to help u.
Try to put out the battery and restart with power + volium down (recovery)
or power + volium up (also named recovery by my phone but its similiar to odin mode) --hold the buttons ´til u can see a white window
try in which mode do u can go.
1.Try to go in second mode.
2.Now u should be able to use the LG PC suite.
3.Connect phone via usb.
4.Click [install usb driver](needs admin rights)
5.If this was succesfulle, click at [SW-Upgrade] (or SW-Update)
If u cant go in recovery mode try to conect it during the boot --Then go to step 2.--
i hope i could help u and it was not to late
and sorry for my bad english
hello! I can not synchronize my google bookmarks with stock browser. I lost chromebookmarksSyncAdapter.apk and ChromewithBrowser.apk and the respective files.odex from system/app folder.
Could someone kindly post them?
Thanks to @evoname for showing me how to do this! [emoji4]
This is if you are interested in pulling the system images for whatever reason. I'm not responsible if you brick your device. Use at your own risk!
adb shell

Here's the codes to backup your partitions on the LG G2. Probably work an any variant. I need this for future references as now it will be stored online forever!!!
Need ADB installed.
adb shell
adb su
Code:

I tried to perform a manual installation of SuperSU (2.82 SR5) on my Raspberry Pi running the developer version of AndroidThings 1.0.4, which is based on Android 8.1.0 / API 27. Rather than flashing the zip in recovery, as I'm not sure where to start with that on the Things platform, I manually pushed files and set file permissions and contexts via adb shell. My guide for this was the summary at the top of the script at SuperSU/META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary.
The new su binary appears to work for the most part. I can execute su and read/write with the interactive shell. However, when I attempt to execute the same operations as a command through su (ie: su -c mkdir /system/testdirectory), it responds saying its a read-only filesystem. The filesystem has been remounted with adb remount. I'm unable to perform the remount with the mount command, as /system is not listed in /proc/filesystems. From my understanding, this is due to some recent security model changes in Android. That being said, after the adb remount, all other normal interactions with the filesystem seem to work without issue. I have verified that selinux is in permissive mode.
I don't have busybox installed. These efforts are to allow for installation of busybox for other projects.
Does anybody know whats causing the commands proxied through su to not work correctly?
Here are the commands I used to perform my manual installation.
Code:
cd ~/Downloads/SuperSU-2.82-SR5
adb connect [IP_ADDRESS]:5555
adb root
adb remount
adb push common/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
adb shell chcon u:object_r:toolbox_exec:s0 /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
adb shell ln -s /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/bin/install-recovery.sh
adb shell chcon -h u:object_r:toolbox_exec:s0 /system/bin/install-recovery.sh
cd armv7
# adding as `su_next` to prevent any issues before dropping it in
adb push su /system/xbin/su_next
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/xbin/su_next
adb shell chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 /system/xbin/su_next
adb push su /system/xbin/daemonsu
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/xbin/daemonsu
adb shell chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 /system/xbin/daemonsu
adb push supolicy /system/xbin/supolicy
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/xbin/supolicy
adb shell chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 /system/xbin/supolicy
adb push libsupol.so /system/lib/libsupol.so
adb shell chmod 0644 /system/lib/libsupol.so
adb shell chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 /system/lib/libsupol.so
adb shell cp /system/bin/app_process32 /system/bin/app_process32_original
adb shell cp /system/bin/app_process32 /system/bin/app_process_init
adb shell rm /system/bin/app_process
adb shell ln -s /system/xbin/daemonsu /system/bin/app_process
adb shell rm /system/bin/app_process32
adb shell ln -s /system/xbin/daemonsu /system/bin/app_process32
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/bin/app_process
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/bin/app_process32
adb shell chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 /system/bin/app_process
adb shell chcon u:object_r:zygote_exec:s0 /system/bin/app_process32
# Swapping new su binary in
adb shell cp /system/xbin/su /system/xbin/su_original
adb shell rm /system/xbin/su
adb shell mv /system/xbin/su_next /system/xbin/su
adb shell /system/xbin/su --install
adb reboot
I need to correct myself: the new su binary can only read with privileges. It cannot write at all. I am only able to write either as the adb root shell, or with the stock su binary. I noticed that the device's adbd process relaunches with its own privileged context passed to it when adb remount is run. (adbd --root_seclabel=u:r:su:s0)
If I've run adb root and adb remount, adb shell, and then enter the su binary, I lose the ability to write to the remounted filesystem. So it appears that there is something wrong with the new su binary and its related files.
Anyway, this isn't critical to my project, so I'm abandoning my efforts for now. If anyone has any ideas on what is wrong here, I'd love to hear them and give this another shot!

Mods please close thread
Code:
adb push su98 /data/local/tmp
adb shell cd data/local/tmp && adb shell chmod 775 su98 && adb shell ./su98 && adb shell su

adb shell cat /dev/zero >> /dev/mtd/mtd2 && adb shell cd /sdcard && adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

sorry this is incomplete, more like a PoC
