That help you see it? I know they make it kinda small, so it's difficult to see :P
 
Yea, I can't use a PC file. I am on a Mac, guess that is why I did not see it. :) Anyway to get just a quick list? I can remove them with Titanium Backup Pro.

Actually, check the LG Stock App Stripper Thread.
That one's still a pc .exe, but I'll get to working on a mac version (it's new code to me, so I'm not sure how long it'll take, but I'll do it at my fastest.
That post has a better list, and more stuff added to it.

Dude, I looked and looked, and the best resource I could find didn't really offer me any help on getting this to convert well.

Some of the instructions that are in the batch files that this runs aren't even existant in mac so I'm not sure what you could do at this point besides just run a VM with windows xp or something.
Parallels is supposedly pretty good. I don't / never have owned a mac (except one in like 1989) so the code is at best greek to me, and learning enough to do what would be easier to do in an emulator for a single project just doesn't prove worthwhile to me ya'know.

Not trying to blow you off or anything, I just don't have the time that it looks like it'll take me to learn apples code what with being a stay at home dad, business owner, and freelance graphic designer, programmer.

(Wondering if I could remove the Mobile Care app? I don't see what its for...)

(It did not for the love of Jesus, let me remove MPCS-IMandSocial-4.0.24-0203. It couldnt find the apk file when I tried to remove it.)

How about next time just linking them my entire thread instead of a piece of it with only half the information they need >.<
That seens like a really sorry attempt to steal credit for stuff bro :confused:

To Speeds03
Check this thread for the Stripper application, and the entire list of what it removes. If you need more information, check the tool itself, while running it tells you a ton of information.

http://androidforums.com/connect-4g-all-things-root/564573-mod-lg-stock-app-stripper.html

Also make sure to check my ROM thread stickied at the top of the All Things Root Section to make sure you have a viable backup just in case :D
 
Thanks! I downloaded the stripper onto my phone. It is listed as a .exe file but I can't seem open/run it. How do I go about doing this?

hehe, it's a PC file, not an android app :P
I am still trying to see if I can get a buddy of mine to make a mac version, just depends on the limitations of different consoles.

Don't sweat it. We've all got our "OMFG I'm such a dumb ass" moments :P
Had one yesterday on the way to the funeral...An RV was pulling an SVU and I was like...OMFG there's some short old lady I can't see driving it...looks in...holy crap...no one...glances to right...awww...I'm a dumb ass >.<
But; in my defense I hadn't slept in almost a week either, so yeah :p

Nope, not trying to steal credit.... jezzzzz. Just helping people who can't find the stuff... like me!
 
Didn't think you were. I was more less saying they need the entire thread, not just a piece.
the rest of it was just me messing with you, 'cuz I like to mess with people :P
