removing default programs - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Just got XDA, succesfully unlocked using aunlock, however !
Sorry if this is a stupid question. How do I remove programs that don't appear in the "remove program" option. Such as microsoft reader media player and other such stuff.
Cheers
Jamie

You cant, they are in rom so they cannot be deleted.

So please can anyone help or I have to do a Hard Rest which I real do not what to do.
I'm trying to unistall Phatspell 1.4.

I had the same problem. As hotfix is SKTools the best choice in my opinion, but after a hardreset was the problem gone. I'm able now to deinstall the programms cleanly.

cant delete/reinstal opera mobile

ok so i installed opera mobile on my device, and i tried to uninstal it so i could reinstal it on my new sd card. the program is in my add/remove list when i sync up however it will not remove. the files are non existant on the phone, im assuming that perhaps its registry entries that need to be updated buti have no clue what needs to be changed. does anyone have any idea on how i can reinstall this program?
any help is appreciated, thank you
I am guessing that you mean that you can not get rid of it off a-sync? Please can you say what you have tried then we know how to help. cus you should be able to just delete it off a-sync by putting a tick next to the item and pressing remove or delete (whatever it is!!)
so far ive tried to removie it through the phones add/remove software but it doesnt show in that list, it says there is nothing in storage (which is correct because there is nothing on my phone with opera any longer). i removed opera from my pc through the add/remove programs, and lastly i have tried to remove it from sync, but what happens is i check off opera and click remove and then im prompted "are you sure" and when i click yes the window closes and as far as i can tell nothing happens. when i open up add/remove from the sync again opera is still there. when i try to reinstall it over it, i get a prompt saying there is allready a version installed do you want to reinstall/upgrade, i click yes, but get an error on my phone saying the cab was installed unsucessfully.... -=/

Remove Program

Hello, I have a video player i like to remove. It is not listed in "remove programs". It comes with a new rom i flashed. Is there a way to remove that program? Because i am not using it.
Sorry my bad english.
if it's part of the ROM image, then you won't be able to remove it.
Ok, thank you.

Try
\Program Files\[<Your program's Developer>\]<Your Program Name>
(Start-> File Explorer -> Up (lower left corner)->Up->Up->Up->. . . .->Up->Program Files . . .)
Also if you still cant find it, hook it up to your pc, and then use the windows (if you have windows) built in search, and then search for the file name and then you'll know where it is in the future

Some of the shortcuts in the start menu are actually folders (Multimedia, for example.)
Have you looked in them for the apps you installed? Also, some apps don't have shortcuts in the programs folder. TouchResponse, for example, just runs all the time. There's a shortcut in settings, but nothing in the start menu root.
You probably just need to hunt round. If you could tell us for sure what you're missing then someone on here will definitely have installed it previously and be able to help you.
ok, sorry...
