not sure the answer on that one to be honest. I find it useful after I have flashed a new rom - google dwonloads all the apps I had previously on my phone.

Apart from that how are you finding having a custom rom?

well if you install titanium back up from google play you can un install everything you dont want. It does a lot more than that and is well worth having a look at

Go to Play Store > My Apps > and the "Stop ALL" updating.

There's an option in the phone initial setup in android not to sync. Too late for that now though :D

What do you think is missing detrox? The list you added above contains no other user apps!

And what has this got to do with ICS???

Lol, so many questions repeated. The features you gave are not ALL apps, only the Superuser and DSP are the apps, others are features of the ROM. Which is why you don't see them.

I've used No-Frills and found it to be exactly as described, no fancy stuff, does the job and is good at it.

Seems you wanted ICS and ended up with F&C, but as the former is WIP at the moment, IMO you're better off with GB for now. Enjoy your games! :)

@Daz - Thanks for the clarification! So even a corrupt bootloader (it's the boot.img when we flash ROMs right?) can be saved? Never messed with the radio to my knowledge, except when I first unlocked the phone. Baseband means the same?

boot.img is not the bootloader, it's the kernel and the ramdisk. The bootloader is not touched by custom ROMs. You can recover from a corrupt boot.img just as you would a corrupt system or bad ROM, just go in to recovery and flash another ROM.

Thanks again for the explanation! I got to verify all what I find with several sources cuz I was thinking otherwise all this time. Good to know we don't mess with the bootloader as I definitely don't want to end with a no option to recover the phone. And can't just return it to Orange either, while I've not seen this anywhere here.

Small question, the green andy is a part of what? How can we change it to something else, like for example ICS andy (PsYcHoKiLLa's avatar)?

Just noticed this reply - if you're referring to the very first Android logo shown on boot that is consistent for all ROMs, that's stored in splash.img. It's a pretty... weird partition as it's pretty much just a renamed nb image file (which is in turn converted from a bmp). It has to be a 480x800 bmp, flipped upside down and moved to the right by about 35px. (I warned you it was pretty weird...) This is then converted with the nbimg utility to an .nb file which can be renamed to .img and fastbooted.

I'll give it a go with ICS Andy.
