Even though the Samsung Galaxy Alpha was discontinued people out there have still have it and some are probably stuck with it. The phone cannot be rooted, but you can still disable apps to help your phone run better. Here is a list of what I have disabled and I have no problems.

Wait, so you can't delete any of the AT&T apps?! You can only disable them?

 

[crammpa]

You can only delete them if you're rooted. This specific model of the Alpha can't be rooted.

Ah okay. Welp, thank you for the heads up.
