Root Help removing bloatware please...

[pslr2301]

I apologize in advance if this has been covered... I HAVE looked but have not come across it.

I have an ATT HTC Inspire. I have used Ace Hack to root the phone successfully and have really done nothing else. This is my first root and have absolutely no idea about it despite being only a few classes away from a bachelors degree in computer science.... (Guess they can't cover everything!) Anyways... I would like to remove the bloat items on the phone like blockbuster, att family map, live tv, etc. Though I would like to keep the att scanner if possible... not sure if all the att crap is linked? I am hoping someone can direct me to which files to remove or if there is another post covering this question, direct me to that post. Also, I have gotten apps in the past... decided I would not use again and uninstalled. However as I am looking in the file directory via pc I see files exist for some of these apps. Would it be alright to just delete these files via pc file manager as I have uninstalled them via the phone?

Thank you so much for your time and advice. I appreciate any help I can get!

there is ALOT of stuff you can delete and still have a perfectly fine,functional phone

if you have used AAHK and are supercided,you may try the latest unbranded,sense 3.0 stock rom,or ARHD,wich is a custom rom based on it,if you truly do not want any of the att stuff on it.

i have run the stock 3.0 rom,and ARHD,and they are nice-minimal bloat,and good performance.

stock ruu: Shipped ROMs

ARHD: [ROM] Android Revolution HD 7.0.4 | High Quality & Performance | O/C | Legendary - xda-developers

if you happen to not like sense,"ice cold sandwich" is a really nice AOSP ice cream sandwich rom: [ROM]01-07-2012 | IceColdSandwich - 8.2 - AOKP | SUMMER EDITION - xda-developers

and there is also official cm7,and other cm7 based roms if you prefer AOSP gingerbread.

if you wish just delete things from your stock rom,make a backup,and then use titanium backup pro to freeze a few thigns at a time,then run the phone a few days. at that point you can delete them,or just leave them frozen.

doing just a few things at a time,over time,will let you unfreeze things if you experiecne prollems.

make backups along the way,so if it somehow gets really fudged up,you dont have to start over with your freezing
