i have a HTC wildfire with android 2.1 (rooted). i downloaded Handcent This morning i have disabled Stock messages and want to delete it is there anyway to do this with an app.i have A terminal emulator and super manager but when i use it it comes up with Uninstall failed is there anyway around that using The Terminal Emulator

Thanks Ranga
 
I like ES File Explorer. You can enable it to be a root explorer and to mount the /system partition as writable. It's also free.

Another way you can do it is if you have Titanium Backup, select the app in the list and just tap uninstall (assuming you have the full version of TB).
 
Rather than delete it why don't you use a root explorer and change the name of the apk. It's just as effective and if something terrible happens and you need it again for some reason, it's there.
 
I'd be very careful deleting stock communication apps. Many time you will find (too late) that they provide additional functionality and services for other aspects of the phone. By over managing your file system you could disable features that can only be restored by flashing a stock rom (factory reset may not restore deleted core apps).

If you are unsure, let it be.
 
I would not delete it. I "think" it's needed for messaging functionality. You can also use App Quarantine to "test" freezing it if you don't have Titanium full.
 
Hey Guys Thanks heaps multiple choices. What is with the wildfire Lagging in games like drag racer. i have read that its is The screen resolution.Is There A rom Booster or something like That
