[Bob-B]

Ooops, scratch my previous comment. I was looking alphabetically for it, not at the end of the list (where it did appear). Sorry.

Any problems if you disable Chrome while using another browser (Dolphin.)

Also, what about the stock photo gallery. (I'm trying out F-stop.)

I see no issue with those.

Love it, Love it. God it makes me hate my old Thunderbolt and the crap I put up with for 2 years

@tj1772...I believe that Lamina is a live wallpaper

Not to add to mobrules' reply, but since the Jelly Bean update came out. Is there any other apps that can be safely disabled? For example the "Audible" app or any of the Amazon services?

 

[edneum2]

ive had audible disabled since the JB update and haven't noticed any problems. The original post says Kindle is fine to disable

Where is the color app? I can't find it.

Edit: I'm going to guess this app was available prior to Jelly Bean?

Is it safe to disable the Amazon and amazon mp3 apps?

Is it safe to disable google search? I read one post that suggested you would lose all voice to text input if u do. Thanks.

 

[GatsbyGlen]

I've disabled amazon, amazon mp3, and amazon Kindle. No problems so far, but if anyone has experienced any problems doing this please let me know

Was installed as a system app in ics, then was moved to a user app with the jb update making it removable.

I can't find it. Maybe I got whacked, removed it and don't remember it

Can someone please tell me how to stop apps from being randomly downloaded to my phone and putting it on my homescreens? I have no idea why it does this.

Thanks!

You can go into your settings in the Play Store and uncheck auto update and auto add widgets.
