Just as the title says, if you've managed to remove a sprint app and it HAS NOT caused an error at startup, or a "force close," would you please post it here? Be sure you've restarted your phone first just to be sure that you're error free.
Stock Sprint Firmware is available here in case anyone breaks something. ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Hero/Official-ROMs/RUU_Hero_C_Sprint_1.29.651.1_signed_release.exe
Remember that everything is case sensitive. For example if you try to "rm sprint_nscar.apk" it won't work. You must type "rm Sprint_Nscar.apk" - without quotations of course.
To remove an app from your phone you must have root access and type the following commands with SU access:
type:
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Then type:
cd /system/app
then you can type "ls" to list the contents of the directory.
To remove an app the "rm" (Remove) cmd will precede the app name each time. For example: rm Sprint_Nscar.apk (and then hit enter)
Mods can we get a sticky on this? Please?
