[Q]How can I remove and replace stock apps? - HTC Rezound

I'm running CyanogenMod 11, and I wanted to remove the stock camera, I found alot of links on google to do it through Terminal Emulator but It never works. also I want to replace it with the camera from the stock rom, and if I try to install that the app never installs properly. Any help would be appreciated.

You won't get a Sense camera to work on a non-sense ROM, just doesn't work, so you won't get the stock Rezound camera to work on CM.
If you like a different camera app, just install it, and if you REALLY want it in the system, use something like Ultimate Backup or Titanium Backup to make it a system file, and associate camera with it. You could also remove the stock camera app if you want, but why?

I don't like the redundancy, and it saves space on the the device. Its frozen for now but I'd rather exercise my android more than that.

Fair enough... You can remove a system app with either of the two programs I mentioned above as well.

I get 6 or 7 apps. I saw it in one of Eugenes Froyo roms and tried it. There is an awesome racing game in there called asphalt.
Flash that rom and then Titanium Backup to snatch it or copy it out of data/app
any one with latest apk for samsung apps?
Anybody?

Next time I flash back to a Froyo rom I'll grab it for you. But like someone mentioned, you can install Eugene's Macnut to get it then backup the apps you want and go back to fusion or whatever. It works.

Thanks, But I already extracted that apk from the rom but still I am getting only History widget (
Yea got that history thing too. Is it just because of the location. Also there was a force close when I installed it. Its uninstalled now

[Q]definitely change default apps?

Hi i was wondering if there's a way to change the default app of a rom. For example, i use go launcher ex, boat browser, go sms pro ecc, is it possible to make those apps the dafault ones? Taking out the stock ones, and using those as stock?
When you choose one app, it ask if you want use it as default....
Thanks... I knew it! But everytime i reboot the nexus, i have to choose again all the preferences!
I meant, is It possible to substitue the default apps, with the ones i use?

I think what is being asked is,
can a ROM be unpacked, delete the apps you don't want and replace them with your own.
At least that's what I think is meant
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Yes, That could be an answer! Or i don't know, is It possible via terminal, adb... Sadly i'm not a dev, and i don't know as much as i would!
Anyway... Yes! Is It possible to unpack a rom and replace the apps with the ones i want?

You can just open a rom zip and delete the apps the from /system/app/ directory.
Alternatively, you can download titanium backup from the market. This app allows you to backup or uninstall apps.

Make a backup of whatsapp using titanium backup and store it in your dropbox or somewhere. Then flash the new ROM, download your backup and restore it using titanium backup

Whenever you are going to flash a new ROM, I would recommend backing up whatsapp again so you don't lose any of your conversations

I prefer the AOSP phone app myself, but why remove one at all? Just use Titanium Backup to freeze which ever one you don't want to use. That way if a problem comes up with the phone app you choose to keep, you can unfreeze the other.
Cheers!

Yeah I deinstall those from aroma, but then after booting and setting stuff up, I go into Rom toolbox and uninstall more stuff. Like widgets I don't use, picasa uploader, and other stuff. I was just wondering what all I could uninstall to free up as much space as possible without losing functionality of the system.
