New Samsung alert! Score a Galaxy S21 5G for as little as $99 right now
What does the social networking app do, and can you remove it?
- I do not use this app ever, and currently do not have facebook set up on my DX yet, only my twitter
Question is, i see it running all the time and am wondering if its draining battery? I have a twitter widget on my home screen and use twitter app to do things on there, i do not use the social networking app at all.
Is the social networking app necessary? Is this the app that handles synching contact info?
Also, ppl are saying to make sure your social networking is set at a reasonable frequency, as far as i know social networking app does not have that option, this interval update is something you have to tweak with each individual app?

If you choose not to root, you can help your battery situation a bit by going into settings>data manager>data delivery>social applications and set the social networking apps to only sync over wifi.08-06-2010 04:13 PMLike 0 - doctorlove316Retired ModeratorIf you root your DX, you can remove it as long as you don't use any of the Moto Blur Widgets (social/weather/news/etc.).

I have a dir on the sd card named vzcrapware. Moved the bloat there. Before updating, reinstall the apps and unroot.08-06-2010 06:14 PMLike 0
