Just because you are paranoid, it doesn't mean that people aren't after you.

Well for me, I've deleted the sprint apps, voicemail, ect. Though I did keep the sprint connections, to supposedly automatically connect to the best network. Deleting some of the integrated kies apps i know i won't use. I can manage my own media on my own.

Though kies air was pretty slick, letting you browse your content via a web browser. May keep that one.

Yeah, a list in the OP would be nice.

You can add ChatOn to the list, just with the caveat that it will freeze the phone for a few seconds while its service dies. After it dies that once, you should see no more problems with it.

How do I get rid of the app icons in the app drawer that I took off using system app remover? Even though I uninstalled them they are still in my app drawer and if I click it says applicationnot installed
