Froyo update: twitter removal?

---

I tried searching but I was surprised when I couldn't find anything.
After the froyo update, I now have twitter on my phone...I really want this **** off of my phone, but can't delete it? Someone direct me to an app to do so please?

Thanks

If you're running FroYo, I'm assuming that means you have root? Unless Big Red pushed out an OTA.. but I'm going to assume you have root, otherwise you're screwed 8D
So again, rooted phone: download Terminal Emulator from the market, and in it, type these commands (hit enter after each line)

su
cd system
cd app
ls

Now look through that list for what will probably be named Twitter.apk. Take note of its exact name, then

rm (whatever the exact name is).apk

And that should get rid of it. There may be extra steps to get rid of its entire footprint, but that will at least remove the app from your device.

No luck

Hi, sorry to bother. I read your thread and tried to remove that piece of **** twitter as per your instructions. It went beautifully until I hit Enter and the result was:
"failed for twitter.apk read only file system"
Is there a way to get beyond that point? Or is "Read Only file system" the final word?

Thank you in advance,
T

Did you saw the date of previous post
