magpye Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Just got one of these, first 'posh' mobile I've had ! Trying to find my way around I've come to a small (?) problem, pre-installed Apps. Obviously not every one is needed, eg Stocks. Now I understand that it is not possible to delete these Apps, only ones that I may have downloaded using the Market App. There must be a way, does anyone know it please? magpye Someone told me I was ignorant and apathetic, I don't know what that means, nor do I care.

norman Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 rooting them is easy and good fun, just make sure you do a back up before you start messing. Speeds most up by getting rid of the ***** pre-loaded you will never use. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
