I am rooted and have froyo. I was wondering how to delete stock apps?
View 4 Replies View RelatedLast night I donated and am just waiting for the paid version now, but I have a couple of questions:
1. What exactly is "freezing" an app? Will it remove the app from the app drawer? Will it just prevent it from running?
2. Can I use Titanium backup to delete apps that are safe for delete like amazon.mp3, etc?
3. If I "freeze" an app like backup assistant will it still be on the phone so that it doesn't brick if I do a reset?
4. Can I delete or freeze things like crap ringtones so they don't show up when I am setting a ringtone?
I've seen this type of comment a few times lately and it's got me wondering if I should take the time to delete the stock launcher. I'm using LauncherPro.
From Chevy:
"If you DO use another launcher, use my tools to DELETE the stock Launcher2 (it will back up to SD). Otherwise, it will still take resources even though you don't run it."
That being said, how do I delete the stock launcher on CM RC3? Root Explorer?
Is there any way to remove the apps that came with the phone for example the Sprint Nascar thing and others? I want to clean up the clutter so I dont have to sort through 100 apps to find one.

I do not want a lot of these Apps that are Built into my Droid X including:
Amazon Kindle, Blockbuster, CityID, and 3G Mobile Hotspot.
Is there a way to delete them? If not, how do I permanently stop them from running in the background and eating memory automatically?

View 10 Replies View RelatedSo I just installed Easy Root because I was so disappointed with the new OTA update I just had to do something...So a few questions that I have are what are some must have apps to have with having a rooted Droid 1. Not much seems to be different, I am still having lag time from loading up my icons when I go back to home which was originally my main problem with the update. I have so far just downloaded Rom Manager, Wireless Tether, and Set CPU which is set at 600 mhz Max and 125 Mhz, is that alright? My last question is how do I delete the pre installed apps? Custom Roms, and kernels whats that all about? Sorry for the new bs questions I'm just really lost and have no idea what I am doing.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have had my droid since launch day and read about how there isn't much room for apps but didn't think much of it. But my phone is slow and lags when i try to go home, it sticks between screens and i have to swipe the phone to get it to go to a screen. I am using Open Home when this happens. Should i delete some apps to open up more memory on the on board memory?

How do I delete applications I downloaded I don't want anymore
Is it possible to revert from a ROM back to stock and save my apps (non-root ones of course). I have titanium backup, but once I am back to stock I won't be able to use it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI purchased Vignette Camera because I liked the edits. However, I noticed there is no option to take widescreen photos (takes up the whole screen of the Droid X) like the stock Camera app. I can take a photo with Camera first, then import it in the other app, but that's just more work. Any other options or apps out there?

I am running the latest 2.1 leak, and yes, my phone is rooted. I would think if anything, this would make deleting the stock groups easier!
I cannot erase any texts in my Eris!! Whether I select just one person (and therefore one thread) to delete or deleting my entire inbox, my phone locks up, messaging crashes/force closes. My phone is incredibly slow and I'm assuming the plethora of messages is at least partially to blame.

So yeah, I'd love to delete everything there but my local weather as I added two cities by accident pressing the wrong area and I could care less what the weather is in New York. Any idea if this is doable? I've tried holding my finger on it, looking under "menu", deleting New York from the World Clock app (widget? New to this kind of phone...) didn't help either, searching this forum, searching Google, and cussing. None of those helped.
Aside from that it's not showing my correct location for the weather either although I know it was when I first set it up. I did install the OS update but I think it was fine even after that. Odd...
