It has almost zero affect on your CPU and memory consumption as well as your power usage, so just leave it as it is. If you decide to disable it, as Rath_ recommended, you might forget to enable it manually later when you want to use your Trezor and you could run into issues or bugs.

Never use Trezor since I bought it last month ago, what something strange, I recently open task manager and found a Trezord application running on, I don't use and connecting wallet since amount ago, is this normal, or Someone remoting this application (or just over paranoid)?
That's Trezor Bridge. You need it to be able to use your Trezor with the web interface. You can disable it in the "Start-up" tab in the task manager. You will have to launch it manually every time you want to use your Trezor in a browser, though.

Although any discount is welcome, I have a feeling that they could do it a little better. If we compare what another leading manufacturer of HW wallets has to offer, Trezor's promotion seems a bit weak. I expected them to at least offer the same price as the main competitor.
What I wanted to say, it would be cool for Trezor to have a 40-50% discount on Black Friday promotion as well.
Are there any better deals for the Trezor hardware wallet on Black Friday? I was expecting a bigger discount at the official shop, maybe there will be something for Cyber Monday?
Barring permanent decreases of the base price or bundle deals, the highest discount I've ever seen Satoshi Labs offer was 30% and that was in 2016 when the whole user base and consequentially the market size for hardware wallets were smaller. Since they only really have one serious competitor, I wouldn't expect bigger discounts in the near future, even less so during a bull run.
Thanks for the screen replacement link. I took mine apart and the metallic case appears to be reusable, just clicks back together. Unfortunately the screen connection has tiny soldering points which would need some specialised equipment I think.
Cool to hear that the case may be salvageable, that's not the case with plastic ones. Google 'tiny soldering points', or go to an electronics/laptop/phone repair shop and ask them to do it for you while you watch.
Are there any better deals for the Trezor harvard wallet on Black Friday? I was expecting a bigger discount at the official shop, maybe there will be something for Cyber Monday?
I don't think there will be a bigger discount. There might be some other deal like a free Trezor One for each Trezor T bought or three devices for the price of two.

I wouldn't count much on it if I were you. You should consider grabbing a Ledger nano S/X instead. It's 40% off: https://www.ledger.com/

I don't think the price should be the same as other competitor's hardware wallets; In this case, the components, features and manufacturing costs may also differ. At least Trezor has several devices with various prices such as Trezor One and Trezor Model T to target different users.
I agree with that. I've misspoked in the previous comment. What I wanted to say, it would be cool for Trezor to have a 40-50% discount on Black Friday promotion as well.

Frankly I could give two shitzas about scammy EU regulations regarding electronic warrranties, I just want stuff that works like it meant to.
Well, the vast majority of electronics sold worldwide don't come with a lifetime or even a 7-8-year warranty, it is what it is.
Best thing you can do in this case is to buy the new LCD screen and replace it yourself.
And here someone claims to have replaced their screen: https://www.reddit.com/r/TREZOR/comments/bjdqcr/replace_trezor_one_case_with_metal_one/em7jrq3/
Not sure if the metallic case would still be of any use, though.
Calendar year warranties are just paper promises, if the electronics only work for 5-6 uses. Unless OLED screens have some kind of shelf-life decay process?

Looks like it just not my luck with Trezor ... my First Edition screen has just gone blank. Tailing the logs shows it appears to be functioning correctly, communicating, etc other wise.
Can I get a refund? I think I paid 2 BTC for it. Only been used 5 or 6 times total I think.

It is cheap and I saw several tutorials on internet with people making their own Trezor wallets.
If you have your seed words just use any other wallet meanwhile.
We have to face it that most modern electronic and parts are crap.
I also had issue with other device (not hardware wallet) that had 3 years warranty and just few days after warranty expired it was malfunctioning and not working anymore.
Cost of replacing that part would be same as buying new stuff today and I can't find anyone who would do it anyway
Thanks for your help ... two years is not a long time for a hodler, really, I'll see what they think about a replacement. Must have been a crappy cheap screen they put in these First Edition ones?
If it's a plastic one and you got it back in 2013 then the price was 1 BTC (3 BTC for the metallic one), but that's irrelevant anyway as Trezor's warranty, like that of most electronics' devices, doesn't last that long.
Two years is the EU-wide legal minimum warranty when selling to consumers.
Must have been a crappy cheap screen they put in these First Edition ones?
IIRC, they did experiment with different cables, so who knows if there weren't any problems with other parts.
It's the metallic one. A 3 btc metallic brick now I guess.

They are definitely not going to refund you 2 BTC for it. There is a limited two year warranty for individual users, so they even might not replace your device. Nevertheless, you should try contacting their support.

You have to install the trezor back-end full node as well and have that connect to the Bitcoin Core full node ... so need to run two full nodes to support one wallet locally ...ok, nah.
You only need blockbook which apparently uses and maintains its own instance of Bitcoin Core, so you don't need to run two full nodes. I asked on their Telegram channel if it was possible to connect an exiting Bitcoin Core instance to blockbook and I got "Yes" without any more details. This config file might be worth taking a look at.
Ok. Still it looks like an arcane set-up.
How is it after all this time the top bitcoin client fullnode, Core, and the top h/ware wallet, Trezor, are not seamlessly integrated?
Long past time they need to get past their little bitch fight that started back when and do the right thing for the community.
