i entered the hidden storage,
buy i dont see there all the o2 programs... where are they?

If possible, I would suggest a hardreset. After the hardreset, you will came to small window saying that some software will be installed in 3...2...1 seconds (e.g. the screen you see just after the security option setup after the hardreset). When you see this screen (you have 3 seconds to re-act), soft reset the unit. Now, your unit will be customization free (e.g no customized software installed).

As you said you have already entered the EXT Rom, you can now choose which software you would like to install. If you don't know what they heck they are, just install it and see if there is any difference. Worse case, hardreset your unit again, take a bit of trial and error.

i dont see the 3 2 1 window

are you sure it is on the atom? i hear it on the jam, akaWM2003... and in WM5 it isn't...

The Software in the O2 Atom is in the ROM itself.
therefore you can not remote all of the O2 software....

Hi brothers

Its not good to enter hidden partetion,
I did all these things too... I also wanted to install some programs to main memory, but main memory is very small in atom it just 43 mb storage.
so i unlocked hidden partetion and delete all inside hidden part...
the result is camera and media plus, fm radio skins are corupted.

then i tried without delete anything, there left some space about 9mb,
And also camera getting problems....

So its better to leaave all in main memory, if you dont want see preinstall programs, enter windows directory start menu througj file explora and delete shortcuts.

Its good idea to by 2gb mini sd and have fun with free space

thank you. hope these information helps you.

hey,
i agree with you 100%,

but the reason i want to uninstall them, is not to save space (i already have the 2gb card). i simply dont want the progams on my device... each of the programs adds a little something to the registry, and god know where else..
