Yes.
Go to app manager under settings and swipe from right to left to bring all apps, click on the app you would like to disable and you can disable it from there.
Cheers

Hmmm it won't disable kik or what's app. You can disable the Samsung apps!
Bye bye story board, SamsungOn....0.91mb of RAM in use now
Is that ok to do?

Hi .. I have an "Automodus 2.2.1" app that I can see in my Titanium app list and also in the system's app manager .. but I cannot see it in my app drawer .. so there is no way for me to start it. What am I missing?

Amazing .. thanks!

Why is this happening?

Recently I've been getting this notification when I try to update an app.
How do I get rid of it?

You may have a rogue app.
You may need to check all your apps
To track it down.

Lol. Its a rogue/adware/spyware app. Goto application manager from settings and hunt it down. Roast it and eat it. Also, maybe uninstall it?

Defiantly a rough app.
I would suggest a wipe in such cases, this is to fully ensure elimination of the problem.

[i9500] Not keeping home screen defaults

Every time I turn on, or restart my phone, I get the screen to select a launcher. I do not have any other launcher installed and every time I select touchwiz and click always, it does not stay.

Seems Odd
-Go to Applications manager
-In the TW launcher clear all data and clear all defaults.
-Restart and reorganize the layout ( If u have multiple launchers you will be prompted to choose a default one )
-Turn off and back on and see.
Hope it helped.

I seem to have hit this problem this week too, a workaround while I figure out why it happens is to disable/freeze other launchers so there's only one left.

Do you have any startup manager app?

It's a separate application, hold the application in the select default app dialog and click disable.

Hmm, that's weird, I used Titanium Backup to freeze it.
I wonder if the app clean master deleted any file needed to keep the default launcher after restarting the phone

backup your apps and do the factory reset......................:after that you'l be :good:
None of that worked.... today i got MJ5 update with 4.3 and it fixed it.

For 3€ (the price of half a ham sandwich over where I live) you get a lot.
Search for "tasker android" on youtube.
