I would love to get these off of my HD2 also. I assume that it would take a new ROM to do so. Anyone have any suggestions???

If I don't remember wrong, pre-installed apps are integrad in the ROM so you can't uninstall those.

I already asked this before, the answer so far I got is...no, you can't since they are in ROM, unless you install a clean ROM...

you can still delete files, not sure if it helps.

Rogers magic removing standard apps?

How do i get rid of some of the preinstalled apps like the rogers home, ringtones, blah blah apps which are just browser shortcuts
and i accidentally installed HTC Sync on my thing and i found out that it installed a few packages on my phone, could i somehow remove those ?
PS: has anyone rooted the rogers magic yet?
thanks.
bump: anyone?
I'd also like to know the answer to this one. Anyone out there with any suggestions on how to remove these useless apps?
I think the only way would be to root the whole rom and flash one of the custom ones here on xda.
not sure which one would be the best to do this and I would like to know also..
maybe you can factory reset the phone? because that's what I did to my Smartone HK Magic and it just uninstall all the pre-installed apps from Smartone HK. and it also let me start using my own widgets I wasn't able to do it with the pre-installed apps

Messaging Bug

Has anyone else found the messaging app to be extremly buggy? I have the stock ATT rom and haven't made any major mods to it. It's constantly freezing, the text input field is always hidden, etc. Is there a fix somewhere? At this point I'm even willing to pay for an app, but I can't find any. SMS chat doesnt work with 6.5.
Please and thanks for any help!

I'm inexperienced with custom ROMs, but I think its a 50/50 chance. Give it a shot and if it doesn't work you can simply unistall it. Everything will be like before. That's the beauty of CABs.
no luck
not compatible with system.

did you get the error before installation? if so, my guess is htc put in a check to see what rom ur running so the fix cant install on another device. maybe a good dev here can decompile the cab and remove the check/block.
cannot d/l from htc site....
Just got around to installing this. My messaging app wasn't giving me much trouble prior to now, so i just installed it. It froze right when I opened the first message and backed out. Just tried again and it froze again. Way to go HTC.

He doesnt want them he wants to remove them. And at this point I believe the only way to do it is to flash a custom rom.

I just delete them from my SD and take the file out of the windows/start menu, programs and that seems to do the trick. The blockbuster and barns and noble apps are not really there just the link to go online and download and install, but I am may not be completely be removing the files from the phone

[Q] Removing programs after rooting question

From my understanding after the phone is rooted, you can remove unwanted programs that bog the phone down. Is that process very difficult? Can anyone give me a how-to, or point me to one? Also, what are the ones I should remove first? Thanks for helping me out!
lol check the sticky im sure you can find lots of info in there and its not hard at all if you cant find anything pm me ill help you out
Thanks alot. Appreciate that!
Buy root explorer from the market. Super easy to remove apps.

'Samsungs Apps' in Overcome Rom 1.20 HELP

Hi all, I have recently flashed my tab with Overcome 1.20 rom (Love it) but it doesn’t include the 'Samsungs Apps' which came with the phone, is there a way to get this back without reflashing?
P.S where would i get games that are meant for the tab that are full screen? android market hasnt really offered much, or i havent been looking in the right places.
Many thanks
I too am in the same situation after flashing with Roto JMIv2. Would never go back, but wouldn't mind some of the Samsung apps which are no longer available. I had about 20 something to choose from, now there is only 2. I'm guessing it's region based, so there must be way of tricking the Samsung app store. Anyone know how to get around this issue?

theres got to be away around this!..I dont want to revert back to the stock rom maybe theres a Sansumg App.apk we could install or ADB it?
I'm going to bump this thread as I figure someone out there knows the solution to this but is not sharing. There are people asking this question in the dev forums as well. I'd post there, but I'm "not allowed" till I fill this forum up with some crap first.

Well, Samsung Apps IS actually included with the ROM, I am guessing maybe something went wrong? I would suggest a complete wipe and do a full Install, see how it goes.
I can assure you however that Samsung Apps is definitely included.
Im using overcome 1.2 and it has the Samsung apps with no problems.

It looks like ADW EX.
Anyway, did you do a fresh wipe or did you update from Overcome 1.1.3?
