removing Bloatware

---

is there a way to remove all the bloatware? If I'm not rooted or anything... plain stock

my phone is always running like 50 apps... apps I never use like slacker..

I get like 4-6 hours of just testing and browsing the Internet

I dont think you can with out root.

I've tried the temp root method to remove the apps in /system/app by moving it to my sd card.

after reboot, my root is gone but the apps are gone...for about a hour then they get reinstalled back.

I think it downloads from the web.

Yea, I think we have to wait for a custom rom to weed those out.

Just do stock + root. I got rid of 45% of all pre-installed apps.

No "unlock bootloader"?
What root method did you use?

im pretty sure he unlocked bootloader-- but if he didnt, sub for details

You do not have to unlock the bootloader to disable apps.
If you can get the temp-root working, all you have to do is enter

"pm disable " + app names (not the apk name)

in adb shell or in terminal emulator.
You can find out which apps are running by "ps" command or thrugh 'manage application in settings menu.

Alternatively, you can use Titanium Backup Pro to freeze apps.

"pm disable app" will stick even after reboots.

Thanks

How would you take and re-enable an app then? "pm enable app" ??
