Root Removing "Bloat" Apps

[mezdup]

i have a rooted Droid X running the 2.2 leak. i want to remove apps by renaming them to .bak files but i can't seem to do it with root explorer. can someone help me manually rename the files by providing a list of commant prompt inputs? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you cycle R/W R/O in the upper right part of the screen? I had no problems adding .bak to apps I didn't want with Root Explorer.

what does r/w r/o mean? im trying to decide either titanium or root explorer.. hwats the diff>

r/w - read and write
r/o - read only

You won't be able to edit stuff in Root Explorer till you set to to R/W (read and write)

yea r/w doesn't work in system folder or app folder. not sure why.

yes it's rooted. yes it has superuser permissions.

Thats weird... thats what root does, it gives you r/w privileges in System.

Not sure why but update v2.12.2 seems to have fixed Root Explorer
