Is there a list of apps that I can delete without damaging the phone?

Name the apps and I'll tell you if safe or not.

Press THANKS if I helped!

I hope it's worth it... I un-rooted to update, and now kingo is tripping KNOX. (at least that's what I've read is happening)N

guess I wait to re-root for a bit...

 

[hatteroo]

god forbid there's any solid info out there for the UK market and more specifically the S4 Mini. Technology is seriously lagging here like the country IS stuck in the dark ages.

If Samsung updated the primitive UI, I'd consider coming back to stock.
Google and Samsung just signed a deal to stop Samsung modifying Android ASOP so much so maybe they'll work on the UI.

I suggest that you don't download firmwares made by ISPs.

Press THANKS if I helped!

couldn't agree more !!

 

[Mortitheon]

I honestly never downloaded firmwares by ISPs. Best decision ever.

when official 4.4 is available can we just have a generic rom here which we can install?

will the official 4.4 also make a stable CM rom as now we just have Nightly rom updates.??

What do you mean by generic rom?

There will probably cm11 stable before the official KK update

by generic i mean not career locked or country specific but an international ROM which could be installed on any phone without any issues.

I prefer the GBU firmwares. They are from Uk but basically, they are international.
