Good tip.

I have these (unwelcome and non-removable) apps:

* g+ Messenger (com.google.android.apps.plus?)
* google+      (com.google.android.apps.plus)
* Email        (com.android.email)
* Gmail        (com.google.android.gm)

I have deleted all data for those apps.  Upon launch, all these apps
try to force an account creation before having access to the
configuration settings.  How can the auto downloader be disabled in
that scenario?

Am I vulnerable to Stagefright in this case?

AFAIK, builtin applications can be In Settings - Applications downgraded
to the original version and than disabled,
after data deletion.

Then no attempt of launching nor updating them occurs.

The Czech one is perhaps more focused on
journey on one's feet,
a pilgrimage,
or long, often multi-day trip.

Typical is a biblical picture with wooden stick.

Traveller and tourist are more motorized these days.

Interesting points of contrast, thanks.

Has Czech a phrase parallel to Croatian "sretan put" (good journey, happy
road, fortunate path), used where Anglophones might say "have a nice trip",
or Francophones, "bon voyage"?

We usually say Šťastnou cestu",
what literally means Happy road,
but with meaning rather Lucky or Safe.

or Dobře dojeď = Safe arrival,
probably similar to Slovenian(?)"Dobro došli"

Very indirectly.

Sputnik is a Russion word, Спутник,
with meaning a companion, a partner, a co-traveller,
a guide, a satellite
I.e. also related to a figural journey,
but rather the other on the same journey.

Czech word Pouť  means Journey
( in other slavonic languages it may be similar )
