how to remove apps from rooted fascinate??

I rooted the phone, went to applications > manage applications and I don't see any options to uninstall some of this verizon bloatware, or like the nfs game. I wanna get rid of this crap. How?
(btw, I AM an android noob. I've literally owned my phone now for a little over an hour coming from tp2.)

Download Root Explorer from the market. Imho it's the easiest app to use. Don't delete, rather create a folder on your sd card and move the apps to it.

thanks for the info, brother. Now for another noob question: Where are the files? LOL
I saw preinstall and moved those apk files, but I know there's more than that.
edit:
oh wait, I found them. Thanks again man.

Lolz, my bad. system/app for the pre-installed crap. There's a good bit you can yank without harming anything, but be careful.

I use titanium backup from the market to uninstall all the verizon bloat that I will NEVER use.

thank you for this heads up. I see there's a CHUCK NORRIS mode, which is exactly what this phone needs. An unstoppable trialware/bloatware remover!!!

[Req] Flash 10.1.105.7

Newest version in the market was released. Anyone able to hex edit this one so that it's compatible with Hulu, etc? Thanks in advance!

I could use some of that hacked flash too!

Ya looking for this as well.....

UPDATE: Oops, forgot to mention, it works!

So after we get the hacked flashplayer, what else do we need to do. Hulu keeps complaining about cell phone.

Works prefectly, thanks

Can this be done without a root?
And if so can I get newb friendly instructions?

Change your user agent to desktop. Cyanogen and other custom ROMs have this built in, but you can use third party browsers to do it too.

I would use the Hulu.apk as it runs much smoother than playing a video via the browser. I'm sure it's on these forums if you search or you can rip it out of SkyRaider.
If you want to go the browser route, type the following into your URL (without the quotes), "about:debug"
Hit enter (nothing will happen)
Go to menu and scroll all the way down to UA string. Change to desktop. Hulu should now work.

No, you can't replace files in the /system partition without root privledges.

does anyone have this in an apk instead of just the so file. I tried to adb push it in sdk tools and it still doesn't work.
EDIT: OK I think I must have pushed it to the wrong folder because I tried again and now it is working for me.

this worked for me but only using the Hulu.apk, and not the website on Droid Incredible Cyanogenmod 6.1

New Android Market

Title says it all.
I wonder if someone has the apk already.

Wondering the same thing, I posted a thread in the themes and apps section asking this also.

Here ya go. Copy to system/app.

You beat me to it I just saw this on another thread!
Fir those that has downloaded it how is it, and can we vibrant users play the movies?

Strange thing happened, the market downgraded itself. I guess its not the time to update yet.

A downgrade indeed... in terms of features. You can't view the permissions of the app before downloading now, updates don't seem to show up on top. There is a possibility that I might have missed those features since I'm new to this.
On the plus side, it's super fast now and there are more useful categories. I hope they bring back the old features if they've been removed.

I'll need to check that out. Thanks!
But how about the updates? I know there's an app that has an update because I didn't grab it yet. Lo and behold, the app does have an update button in the app details BUT it doesn't show up on top of the list. Maybe I'll try doing stuff like rebooting my phone.
Oh, and one more thing. There's no longer the auto-update check mark like before. Is it really missing or am I just missing it?

My two updates are at the very top and seperated. And of course you can see permissions. Click download and a seperate page comes up to confirm and shows permissions and more clearly I might add.
Also its only showing the updates of apps actually downloaded from the market. I too had two that weren't showing but they did in fact have updates. The reason is those two were backups from like November and I don't remember if I got them from the market or here.

All my applications that needs to be updated are on top also there's still an option for automatic updates.
This is really a good update. I just need a wifi at my house so I can now rent movies.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

So it turns out that all of the features that appeared missing (uninstall, auto-update, permissions section) were mostly caused by my apps losing their market links.. and being too quick to judge for the permissions one. After rebooting, the list of all my installed apps disappeared where they were in the "not installed" section before. So I think I'll have to find a way to restore them. It's either with market doctor in Titanium and/or clearing the market data, right?

I hear rooted users can not rent movies though the new market. Is this true?

(The author of that complaint is Supercurio, creator of Voodoo Lagfix)

Yup, rooted phones can't watch movies. I don't see them removing that policy because of piracy issues.
But it really sucks to be this way, maybe they should do what amazon is doing? Making sure that the movies will only work on the account that downloaded it?

Thanks EB for the link. working perfectly on SimplyHoney 3.9.1.

tried the market apk on the latest cm7 nightly, but when i try to open it i get the message "you must add an account to the device to continue. Do you want to add one now?" so i choose yes but nothing happens i logged in to google thru the browser but no luck there either any suggestions??

After spending about 15 min with this, I have to say that this market is a nice improvement. The issues I encountered were all temporary (missing update button, security permissions lists before download, etc). Sucks that they decided to stop rooted users from video rentals. I can see why, but in the end someone will figure out how to bypass that.
If anyone has issues listing their installed apps in My Apps my solution was to use titanium backup to wipe the data of the market app clean + using the market doctor. I also had two accounts in accounts and sync and had to get rid of the secondary one to get to load up my default sync data.

You have to accounts and sync in the settings and add an account. Quite weird that you can't do it through the actual market. I never had an issue doing that in youtube!

My Market App disappeared, strange....It was there, icon is there, but app is gone.

It is weird. I had the app and used it and now the icon is there, but it wouldn't work. Then when I looked in the app area it isn't there. I have Kings speed Rom I think. I'll have to check to make sure. It has sense 3.0. Has anyone had their market vanish. I see post where people are asking how to install it, but I've always had it for like 2 weeks.

Reflash the rom without wiping data - just wipe cache and dalvik. You of course have to know what rom you're running to be able to reflash it.

You can pull the market apk from the rom via 7zip or winzip or whatever, and push it to your /system/app/ folder

ok, download app seems ideal
I signed onto android market on my pc and tried to download it and it kept saying the app is not compatible. I just realized it is an app for an android tablet. I need to figure out where to find the regular android market for a phone. I did a search on market.android.com and it keeps finding the tablet version.

Clearing the cache and data in the market is healthy for your updates to your fav apps .... Followed by a nice Reboot of phone​

Market works; but doesn't recognize my apps, when I click on menu and "My Apps." But when I go to an app that I have it does say its installed.
Talk seems to be working as well.
Was that all that was changed in the new gapps?

Crash you do realize that, the 3.2 market is a leak of the market for ICS? secondly I've been running it for about 2.5 weeks maybe a little less. I install run fix_permissions from terminal emulator and fix them thru root explorer and still get the error when I try to purchase an app. I think some phones or roms just don't work well with it. IMHO Thanks for posting the Gapps zip!
