[Q] HTC IQAgent: safe to remove?

thank you thank you
eidt: i searched google and couldnt really find a definitive answer.
remove world clock or desk clock and maintain alarm?
alright, after a few more seconds of research, i believe it should stay.
next question, i dont use the desk clock but sometimes i use my phone to set an alarm.
can i remove the world clock and maintain the desk clock and alarm? or can i remove the world clock and still have the desk clock and alarm functionality?
im just removing things... thank you thank you
edit: also gtalkservice. safe to remove? im figuring not.

Only way to know is to try, right? Nandroid first, of course. I think all the clocks are inter-related somehow on a Sense ROM, so my guess is that removing any one of the clock or alarm apk's will kinda break them all. But I've never actually tried it myself to know for 100% sure.
EDIT: I think you CAN safely remove the HTC clock widget, but why would you want to? I assume most people use the clock in its widget form on a home screen.

Many times when you try to remove Google things from your phone (ones that were already included with a ROM like gtalk), your access/login to the Market can break. Not always, but it does happen enough that most people typically don't mess with the included Google stuff.

i left the gtalkservice. i deleted google talk, nothing seemed to be affected. i dont use any widgets, i deleted those on day one. maybe ill try deleting the clock...
thanks
I deleted my WorldClock.apk no problem. I actually prefer the AOSP eclair clock and alarm clock better. Also yes, you can delete google talk, just don't delete the service. If you delete the service, it will break your Android market

hello.
do yall think itd be safe to remove the standard(stock) Internet app that comes with the phone? I use opera mini atm and soon ill be using fennec. could there be any adverse affects? the only thing i could see changing would be that the phone wouldnt question me as to which browser to use...(i dont like setting defaults. prefer one app to do a job)
thank you thank you
edit: removed... with no issues(so far)
It looks like a security researcher found out the use for this app.
Try searching this in Google: "Carrier IQ: Researcher Trevor Eckhart Outs Creepy, Hidden App Installed On Smartphones"
Essentially, it records every website you view, and every key you press on your Android phone. Even if you are on SSL, on WiFi.

[Q] Icon names mismatched

Hi all,
I did my first flashing and went for CM9. Although I cannot sort the applications in the order in which I would like them (by the way is there a launcher allowing me to do this?) I really like the ROM.
But I am experiencing a weird problem. The icon - or application - names look like on the screenshots. I have this problem few times a day. Does anyone know of a solution? Thank you.

I am on Remics-JB v2.1 and APPS are displayed with Android icons instead of original icons.
It displays fine after 2 days. Is there any solution for this.

Unlocked V40 from B&H

Hey guys just a few quick questions here. Did anyone order the V40 from B&H?
If so I have a few questions about some of the system apps. Mainly does it have the stock lg messaging app or did they ditch that with the international version as well? Does the Google dialer from playstore work on the phone or is it blocked? Yes I know there's a patched version but I'm wondering about the one on Google Play. On the G7 it worked fine. And if someone could posts few screenshots for me that would be swell too. Looking to see settings, dialer and if possible the stock messaging app (if it was included)
Did not come with a LG Messaging app. Is compatible with the Google Dialer and Contacts. Installed both and then uninstalled com.android.contacts to remove the lg dialer and contacts, and everything is working fine. Also have done the same with calculator and clock so I could use more overlays with swift black. Settings look different from the V30, but probably similar to the G7. May attach screenshots later if I remember and have time.

Great thanks for this. How about lg calendar app?
It came with Google Messages (currently running 3.7.052) as the stock messaging app. I don't know about the normal version but the beta of the Google Phone (26.0222117411) app works just fine directly from the store. I've attached dialer and messaging screenshots with personal information cleared out.

Calendar is the Google version.

Another question for the international one, if that's the B&H one. Can you turn off the camera shutter sound right from the app?
Can someone show me a picture of the theme app open? I want to see something that will be helpful moving forward and let me get a head start on a few things

Well if your taking requests a black out theme would be nice and battery saving....and whatever wallpaper you wannna go with as the creator.
Well I don't take requests per say but I sure do listen to people and try to cater as best I can. I will open a support, communication and feedback thread once I get something done. I've had quite a few people asking for pixel experience light and dark so that will be first followed by something else that I've been tinkering with and possibly an icon pack add on since some people prefer stock icons, with the icon pack they can have the choice

Wallpaper changing after restart

Hello people, yesterday I received my Mi 9t Pro and so far I'm quite happy with it. One problem I'm facing is the following: I'm using pixel 3 live wallpapers via Google background app and whenever I restart the phone the lockscreen wallpaper is going back to the stock one. Home screen stays the correct one.
Is anyone facing similar issues or has any idea how to solve this?
Edit: sorry for wrong topic! Thanks to the mods for moving it!
Hey, I had exactly the same problem and I read a solution somewhere that actually worked for me :
Go into settings / manage apps then look for "wallpaper carousel" or something like that and uninstall it.
And that's it, hope it works for you.

Thank you for the answer. I can not find anything similar to wallpaper carousel in my app selection... I might have removed this already with debloating I think!
Not in my indian variant .. but some themes will cause such errors ..
Please goto stock theme.. and check it back
Note : don't uninstall themes ?

Then I remember reading a few times that there is a problem sometimes with MIUI and third party app managing lockscreens.
Have you tried to set it up via the miui gallery app instead of Google app ?

Alternative widget for Photos/Video?

Just got my XZ1c today, and I'm pretty happy with it, but it's missing the Photo/Video widget that I've used on my previous Xperia Compacts. Anyone know of a similar widget that I can use?

Are you on the stock rom?
There is a similar widget built into the default Lineage OS gallery.
I'm on the stock rom, and don't plan to root this phone for awhile. The last time I looked for a similar app on the Play Store (I was hoping to use Nova Launcher), I couldn't find anything like it. I had one page in my stock launcher dedicated to the Photo/Video widget.

Try this out:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/linea...ry-1-1-40030-3-android-apk-download/download/
See if you can get the widget working from this gallery app. This is the Lineage OS one I mentioned before.
Thanks! Works, but not like the old one...
The old version would display one picture or video at a time, was scrollable, and clicking on it would take you to that object in the Gallery app. It can be resized to fill the whole page. That's what I'm looking for. Thanks for your help, though!

Happy to help.
My last suggestion would be to look for an older version of the Sony Album app on Apk Mirror.
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/sony-mobile-communications/album/album-9-8-a-0-8-release/
Find the version that still has the features and see if it works on Android 9.
No luck so far...
Could it be possible to copy it from Z1c or Z5c? It was a system app.

You might be able to find the same version of the album app on APK mirror that is on the z5c. You should be able to see the version number of the app in the app info page in the settings.
Or try extracting it from the z1 or z5 if you still have them. I am not a developer so I don't know if this will work for you, but I usually use "my apk" from the playstore to create an APK from apps on my phone. Then you can try to install that APK on the XZ1c.
my apk link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.andatsoft.myapk.fwa
Awesome, I'll give that a shot. Thank you!
Animated Photo Widget + does the trick!
