Help How do I remove useless Samsung App's.

[Remeniz]

Ok. I have two Samsung app's that are warning me for an update. Is there anyway I can get rid of the two app's? I won't be using them.

To get rid of the carrier installed apps, you'll have to root your phone and then you can use Titanium Backup to get rid of them.

Dang!

Ok then. I didn't fancy rooting my phone though. So I guess i'll just make do.

Thanks.

before rooting, I created an "unused" folder and dropped all the bloatware on my phone into that.

it doesn't remove them obviously, but at least i didn't have them filling up my apps pages

Good little tip there, thanks.

I don't mind that I cannot remove them as long as they're not syncing or running in the background.

I just hid mine in a group in the app drawer if you also just flash to the latest firmware that removes a lot too

How do I check which Firmware i'm running? Is it the Kernal version i'm looking at?

menu>settings>about phone it's Android Version

How do you make groups in the app drawer?

i've tried making folders but it doesn't seem to be possible on my phone.

app>menu> edit> add folder or add page then i get a blank box with an x in the corner if i press add again i get the choice to delete the apps on that page.

Please help!

thanks

edit, instead of pressing folder, drag and drop onto app screen. you'll then get the option of adding a name etc

Click App drawer, click choose group then setup new catalog I called it main and just transfered all the apps that I use n need into it and made sure that was the default one that opened with app drawer
